CH.36 Redemption

Kitchen knives are not paid special attention to by ordinary people, and the freshness of the ingredients is more important than that. But for chefs, kitchen knives are an issue they can't avoid.

The shape of the hand holding the knife and the weight of the kitchen knife will not be the same for each chef, and whether the kitchen knife is smooth or not is related to the speed of cutting the ingredients, as well as the quality of the cutting of the ingredients. Therefore, if possible, chefs will customize kitchen knives.

Zheng Ke has three custom-made kitchen knives in his hands, although he has been working hard for nearly a year, but he usually maintains them well and has good habits of using knives. Of the three kitchen knives, only the chef's knife is a little notched. Moreover, after a year of tempering, Zheng Ke's arm strength has also increased a lot, and when holding the kitchen knife, he always feels that the kitchen knife is a little light.

Zheng Ke opened the knife box, and the kitchen knives in the knife box appeared in his field of vision, the type was the same as the kitchen knife used in the training in Sichuan Pavilion. In addition to the commonly used kitchen knives, even carving knives also have a complete set.

In addition to the complete variety, the quality of kitchen knives is also outstanding. The oak handle ensures a good grip, and the sharp blade is even more cold, making it impossible to look at directly.

Good knives.

When he was in Sichuan Pavilion, the kitchen knives used by Zheng Ke were already very good, except for customized kitchen knives, it was rare to see kitchen knives of such good quality. But that set of kitchen knives, compared with the kitchen knives in front of Zheng Ke, is still a lot different.

"Brother Xiao, this set of kitchen knives is a bit valuable, right?" Zheng Ke closed the knife box and looked up at Xiao Han.

"What's valuable?The school will send it out every year, can you take it first?" Xiao Han waved his hand and looked at Zheng Ke, "How is it, are you confident?"

"Yes, I'll be here tomorrow afternoon, challenging you. Zheng Ke Zhengse said.

Xiao Han's face showed a rare smile, "It's finally a little interesting, then, I'll go back first, looking forward to your good news tomorrow." ”

When Xiao Han left the training room, Zheng Ke blinked, and just now, he accidentally said what was in his heart...... Heck, anyway, let's think about what to do next

Zheng Ke once again returned to the question that made him feel entangled - whether to consume three stars for the sake of the "realm", especially now that he is not sure whether the two are related.

The answer to this question is not so easy to answer, Zheng Ke struggled for half an hour before making up his mind. So many efforts have been made before, but the results are all useless, and now I can only discard the three stars for verification.

Of course, if he fails, it means that it will take a long time for Zheng Ke to upgrade the "Heart of God" to the second level, and before that, Zheng Ke's strength will definitely be affected to a certain extent.

After making up his mind, Zheng Ke activated the "two hearts".

When the dialog box of "whether to agree to consume the three 'God Heart' stars" appeared, Zheng Ke felt that his heart was really hurting - he estimated that there would be a long period of low tide, but it would not break or stand, and if he didn't fight hard, it was estimated that the growth of cooking skills in the future would also stagnate.

After figuring this out, Zheng Ke finally pressed the "yes" button. In an instant, it was as if a force had left his body, and he immediately examined it carefully, and his body had not changed.

Could it be that the "Heart of God" has been reduced to LV1 just now?

"'Two Hearts' Activated—"

The voice of the system sounded from Zheng Ke's heart, and Zheng Ke's heart seemed to be much broader.

After the "Two Hearts" was activated, Zheng Ke began to think about how to use the "Two Hearts" to study the "realm" by the way.

Zheng Ke came to the freezer, observed the ingredients inside, and found tofu and watercress.

After all, this is the first time Zheng Ke has used "two hearts", and he also wants to rely on "two hearts" to enter the realm. After all considerations, Zheng Ke decided to cook mapo tofu.

Looking at the tofu placed in front of the operating table, Zheng Ke took a deep breath, touched the surface of the tofu, picked up the knife with his right hand, and at the same time used the "two hearts" to put part of his energy on the ingredients.

Zheng Ke has been with the "Heart of God" for a long time, and when cooking, his attention will always involuntarily shift, and his concentration on the ingredients will be randomly weakened.

Mapo tofu is freshly baked in this incongruous balance.

Zheng Ke picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, his brows furrowed slightly, there was still a gap between him and the mapo tofu he imagined. The taste is not as strong as the "Heart of God", and there are indeed some problems with the control of the material.

But in addition to these shortcomings, this dish also has advantages that have not been seen before, first, the control of ingredients, although there are some problems, but after the entrance, there is a tendency between the ingredients and the taste buds to want to be linked, which Zheng Ke has not felt before. Second, the loss of physical strength has also returned to a non-"boundary-breaking" state, and the gap with cooking ordinary dishes is not too big.

These two effects gave Zheng Ke a lot of confidence, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he was overjoyed.

Although it has not yet entered the "realm", the connection between ingredients and "taste buds" has a trend of "realm", and there is no significant loss of physical strength, which also allows Zheng Ke to let go of his burden.

After making a dish of mapo tofu, Zheng Ke also sat on the stool and began to summarize the gains and losses after this cooking.

At the end of the day, the principle of "two hearts" is not complicated, and to take a less appropriate example, if people's attention is compared to a big house. If several people are in a big house at the same time, doing several unrelated things at the same time, such as watching TV alone, reading a book alone, and listening to music alone, then there will definitely be an impact on each other.

The function of the two hearts is equivalent to creating another independent space in a large house, separating people who need it or not, so that they can concentrate in a certain space.

Zheng Ke's "Divine Heart" requires a high degree of concentration, and similarly, the "Realm" also puts all the body and mind on the ingredients, so when the two hearts separate them, they are independent and do not affect each other.

If this metaphor is any different from the real situation, it is probably that there is no concept of space for concentration, so after adapting to the coexistence of the "heart of God" and the "realm", the two may reach a balanced value, and to a certain extent, they can penetrate each other.

In addition, Zheng Ke also knows that the "heart of God" with the best effect does not have to invest in all experiences. This was verified in last year's Ten Masters Competition. It's just that now in order to target the "realm", Zheng Ke has to focus all his energy on the heart of God.

If the two can really find a balance and work together instead of competing, then the resulting dish must be excellent.

Zheng Ke thought of this, scratched his head, he seemed to think a little too much, after all, so far, he has never entered the "realm"?
