After lunch, Zheng Ke returned to the kitchen and found saffron from the cupboard. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Are you going to use saffron?" asked Catherine, surprised.

Zheng Ke made a silent gesture, pulled a stool from the corner, and sat down next to the operating table.

Catherine held back her words, but when she saw Zheng Ke falling into deep thought, she also chose to be silent, which lasted for about six or seven minutes, and felt that it was not interesting, so she left the kitchen and gently closed the door.

After Zheng Ke decided to choose saffron, his cooking focus was also on Western food. However, what kind of ingredients to choose and match them with them is also what Zheng Ke is worried about.

Native to southern Europe, saffron is often used for coloring and seasoning, and is often added to many soups in Western cuisine, especially in French cuisine. For example, in terms of cuisine, Absolun's previous Marseille seafood soup uses saffron.

If it is a French meal, some common seasonings are still used, such as parsley, pepper, butter, garlic...... If it's fish, what kind of fish do you use? Cod? No...... Isn't that the seafood soup of Marseille? Is lobster okay? Or is it scallops?

Zheng Ke wrote and sketched on the paper, and the whole person fell into contemplation.

Catherine, meanwhile, sat in the dining room, ordered a glass of juice, and watched Absolon talk with the girls outside. Momo Akane Kubo stayed outside for a few minutes, and found it boring, so she returned to the restaurant, and when she saw Catherine sucking juice idly, she walked next to her.

"How is Zheng Ke's cooking?" asked Momo Akane.

Catherine shook her head, "It's hard to say. The only good news now is that there are five days left before the competition, and he seems to be stuck somewhere, not knowing what kind of food he will be able to make. ”

"Do you want me to find out about Senior-Takasugi?" asked Momo Akane-Kubo.

"No, you don't. These gossips will only make people relaxed. If you want to eat a beautiful meal, it's best to choose silence at this time. To be honest, I also want to see what kind of dishes Zheng Ke can make when facing the former Ten Masters of Yuanyue. ”

Catherine licked her lips as if a superb dish was right in front of her eyes.

Akane Kubo Momo was also interested, and nodded with interest.

After the two agreed, they chatted for a while, Hanazawa Mu walked into the restaurant with heavy steps, like a walking corpse, ordered a few dishes from the waiter, glanced at the restaurant, and his eyes fell on the table where Akane Kubo Momo, said hello weakly, and then walked over slowly.

Akane Kubo Tao hurriedly pulled over a chair and asked Hanazawamu to sit down, and glanced at Hanazawamu's face, which was extremely haggard, and it was estimated that he hadn't eaten much for lunch.

Sure enough, within two minutes of Hua Zemu sitting down, his stomach screamed angrily.

"Hanazawa-senpai, how long have you not eaten?" Akane Kubo Momo looked at Hanazawa Mu pitifully.

"10 hours, right? I haven't had a sip of water until 6 a.m. It's already this time to design the food. Hua Zemu held his stomach with both hands, his expression painful.

"Actually, you shouldn't work so hard, that Gao Jian'an, I don't think he has much strength. Last time it must have been too lucky. Akane Kubo Momo pouted, until now, she was still angry about Takami'an eliminating her.

"I think so too, I also saw Gao Jianguang a few days ago, and he is not very old, probably less than 30 years old. I haven't seen his cooking, and I don't know what he's capable of. It's just that I think that as long as I'm serious, Gao Jianguang shouldn't be a problem. Hanazawamu touched his nose, "This time, I'm very serious." ”

A smile barely appeared on Hua Zemu's face.

At this time, Hanazawa Mu's dish was served, he took a plate of pasta, picked up the fork, and ate it in a big gulp.

The two girls looked at the table full of food and felt a little incredible. Although Catherine also loves good food, she also has standards. If she can't meet her requirements, she would rather go hungry than be like Hua Zemu, who has a bit of a hungry taste.

"By the way, how is Zheng Ke preparing?" Hua Zemu looked up at Catherine.

"Earlier, he didn't seem to be satisfied with his food. Catherine sighed, more than a day has passed, in fact, if you think about it carefully, Zheng Ke really hasn't made much progress.

"It's good to be careful. If you are too careless in the face of Takasugi Shouji, you are likely to lose badly. Takasugi has been at Togetsu Academy for six years, and he has lost no more than 10 games using soup. And most of them are lost in the middle department. Hua Zemu reminded.

The two girls looked at each other, it seems that Takasugi Shouji's strength in soup is still not to be underestimated.

Zheng Ke didn't match the recipe until after nine o'clock in the evening. But what it tastes like will still need tomorrow's cooking, and today can only go so far.

Stretching his waist, Zheng Ke realized. Catherine didn't know when, lying on the table on one side of the table, she fell asleep.

"Hey, wake up, it's done. Zheng Ke said softly.

"Eh, what's the food?" Catherine suddenly opened her eyes and looked at the counter for the first time, but found nothing.

"Nothing...... Hurry up, I'm starving to death. Zheng Ke patted Catherine on the head.

"No, I ...... Ordered a bowl of rice at the restaurant. Catherine brought a bowl of ramen from the table on one side, "Unfortunately, it seems to be cold." ”

"No, you can eat it. Zheng Ke took the cold bowl, finished the ramen in three or two bites, and saw Catherine bring over a small plate with three or four dorayaki in it.

"This ...... It's rare to eat dorayaki and ramen together. Zheng Ke picked up the dorayaki, which was still cold.

"I just thought it was delicious, so I asked the chef to make a few of them. By the way, are you ready for the competition?" Catherine looked at Zheng Ke expectantly.

"I'm sure, but I don't know if it's delicious. I can only wait until tomorrow to make the dish and then decide. Zheng Ke sighed.

"Why don't you call my brother?" Catherine suggested.

"What do you think of his judgment? Is it comparable to you?" Zheng Ke asked.

"How can you compare with me?" said Catherine, shaking her head.

"Then don't. I'm going to make another dish for him, waste. Zheng Ke sighed.

"Yes. That man...... It's a bit unreliable. Catherine pouted.

Hehe...... It's not good to say that to your brother, right?

Zheng Ke picked up a piece of dorayaki and put it in his mouth, and his eyes suddenly lit up, "Well, that's good, I didn't expect the dorayaki here to be so delicious." ”

Catherine listened to Zheng Ke's words and narrowed her eyes.
