CH.14 Cooking Lesson
"See, it's this person who said he wants to be the chief of the 'Ten Heroes'. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
"It's just a transfer student, and I bet he won't live past the first grade. β
"Do you still need to say that, out of ten people, at most, only one person can be promoted to the second grade, who is that person?"
β¦β¦
Standing in the practical classroom, these annoying voices kept buzzing in Zheng Ke's ears.
Zheng Ke lowered his head and pretended not to hear. After all, those words at the opening ceremony were really too ostentatious, and now that I think about it, those words do have some (inhale) (induce) pull (hate) wind (hate).
"Hey, are you the transfer student?"
Just when Zheng Ke was in a trance, there was a voice in his ears.
"Yes, excuse me, ...... you are"
Zheng Ke looked at the blonde girl in front of him, who was half a head shorter than himself, and didn't understand why she wanted to greet such an "unlucky" person as herself.
This girl is less than 1.6 meters tall, has a thin figure, and her long hair is tied into a ponytail, making her look extremely capable.
At this moment, the girl was holding a porcelain doll-like face and looking at Zheng Ke with disdain.
"My name is Asami Sugisaki, a first-year high school student, and the two of us are partners in this class. β
Speaking of the word "partner", Asami Sugisaki's tone suddenly became heavier, obviously not satisfied with Zheng Ke's partner.
"Then please take care of me. β
"I can't talk about taking care of it, don't hold me back when the time comes. β
Fortunately, Zheng Ke was already mentally prepared, so he was not surprised by Sugisaki's cold attitude.
He had a hunch that at least for half a year, his situation would not be better than that of Xinghei, who had just entered the first year of high school.
"Here comes the teacher......
I don't know who shouted, and the classroom, which was still whispering, instantly fell silent.
Immediately afterwards, a female teacher in her mid-fifties walked into the classroom.
"Good morning, dear students, and welcome to the Senior School. Not everyone has the opportunity to stand here, and many more have become your stepping stones. From this point of view, you are the ones who have succeeded. I hope you can continue to work hard in the coming time, and don't fall behind. β
The female teacher smiled and put her hands together on her chest, which made people feel a sense of warmth.
(Luckily, at least not Roland Chapelle.) If you meet that "chef who can't laugh" again, then your luck will really fade to the extreme. οΌ
Zheng Ke finally breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that although he said some things that were not too appropriate at the ceremony, his luck was at least a little better than Xingping.
"Damn, why is she? so annoying!" Asami muttered quietly. It seems that Asami's annoyance with her is far greater than Zheng Ke's.
"Who is she?" Zheng Ke asked curiously.
Asami glanced at the female teacher who was still talking and making a lot of nonsense, and her voice became very low.
"This old woman's name is Hideki Hiroi, nicknamed 'Smiling Assassin', or 'Laughing Tiger', and she smiles when she talks to everyone, but as long as she offends her, the score is all E, and it has nothing to do with the quality of the cooking. Unless you can reach the level of the 'Ten Masters', you will definitely be suppressed by her. By the way, you didn't offend her, did you?"
Zheng Ke shook his head.
What are you kidding, he has never met Hiroi Sensei, how can he offend her? Even if he is a little lucky, he will not carry it to this extent, right?
"That's great, I've offended her. β
Asami's face was gloomy, and a fine layer of sweat oozed from her forehead.
"Nani?"
Zheng Ke looked at her partner, but she nodded very seriously.
"If both of us offend her, then this class must be an E review. There's still a glimmer of life, so I'll leave this lesson to you. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you. β
Asami folded her hands with a pleading expression.
"However, if I get an E rating because of you, I won't let you go. Do you hear that?"
Before Zheng Ke could react, Asami's face had already turned cold, and the speed was comparable to "changing face".
She clenched her small fists and shook them in front of Zheng Ke.
Zheng Ke had a black line, thinking that it was finally time to run, or not, and turned over to be the master from then on, but he didn't expect that bad luck would still follow him.
Of course, Zheng Ke once again recorded this account on the "food system", who let him bring himself to this era.
Among the surrounding students, many of them lowered their heads and did not dare to look directly at Guangjing, and some of them had words in their mouths, and their fingers kept drawing small circles on the table.
"Okay, so let's start today's lesson, shall we start today's lesson? Today's menu is 'Teriyaki Squid', which is a dish made with squid as the main ingredient, and the taste is mellow and the preparation is not complicated. I'll put the dishes on the whiteboard for an hour. The finished group will send it to me for grading, and now the timer will begin. β
With a smile on his face, Hiroi didn't seem to see the small movements of the classmates below, but said today's topic.
As soon as the words ended, the students immediately rushed to prepare the ingredients.
"Shine...... Teriyaki squid?"
What is this? I've eaten squid, but I've never made it.
Zheng Ke looked at the whiteboard with a black line, confused.
"Hey, new kid, you don't know what 'teriyaki squid' is, do you?"
Asami looked at Zheng Ke, who was looking at the whiteboard in a slightly stunned way, and had an ominous premonition in her heart.
"I've never eaten it, I haven't seen it. I've eaten a lot of sizzling squid. Zheng Ke replied honestly.
"OMG, how did I get such a wonderful partner...... Didn't you say you were going to be the NO.1 of the Far Moon Academy?"
Asami rubbed her forehead, and her whole body was suddenly filled with a sense of powerlessness.
"It doesn't matter, isn't there a recipe on it? I'm a very good learner. Zheng Ke patted his chest and said confidently.
Since she can't change the status quo, Asami can only do her best to cook the best dishes, and as for the result, it is estimated that the E evaluation will not be able to run away.
Just when Asami cheered up and was about to give it a go, she found that the few broccoli left on the altar had been oxidized by the air, and the emerald green broccoli was now slightly yellow, and the originally plump and brittle flower bulbs also began to shrink and loosen.
In her impression,The school garden will never prepare such defective ingredients.,I don't know why this time it's mixed with defective products.γ
After reading the recipe, Zheng Ke also came to the operating table, and also found the old broccoli, and couldn't help frowning, such ingredients must have an impact on the cuisine. Japanese cuisine in particular is particular about its appearance.
Suddenly, there was a slight laugh in the classroom.
Zheng Ke looked towards the laughter, only to see a few people with evil smiles on their faces secretly looking at him.
The other candidates didn't show their dissatisfaction, but it was clear that everyone was gloating.
(Deserved, who made you jump like that?)
(Want to be the head of the high school?phew, it's the head from the bottom!)
(Aren't you a cow X?give you a chance to perform, don't let us down.) οΌ
β¦β¦
"You can solve your own troubles. β
Asami's face also pulled down, and it seems that the E review is inevitable.
(Why am I so unlucky? It's just the first day of class in the new semester, and I have to face such a situation, depressed!)
Asami stomped her foot angrily and turned her head.
Zheng Ke was not angry, and jumped a slightly better-looking broccoli from the remaining broccoli, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It's okay, we will definitely pass this time!"
"Pass? We don't even have the materials, so what do we rely on to pass?" said Asami, puffing out her cheeks.
"Don't worry, if you don't want to fail the course on the first day of school, help me quickly. β
"You're also the one who did the trick. β
"It could be you. β
Zheng Ke secretly pointed to Mr. Hiroi on the podium, and Asami immediately closed her mouth.
Zheng Ke drained and chopped it clean, put it in a boiling pot, then grabbed a squid from the pool, put it on a cutting board, cut the squid, and cleaned the internal organs.
Asami looked at Zheng Ke with wide eyes, she didn't expect that a transfer student's knife work would be so skilled. After the kitchen knife in Zheng Ke's hand slashed several fluent arcs on the squid's body, the squid was instantly split into squid pieces of the same size.
"Quick, get the sauce ready. Zheng Ke picked up the lid of the pot, took out the broccoli from the boiling water and put it on a plate, and instructed Asami to prepare the sauce.
"Oh, I'll go. β
Asami answered and immediately went to find the seasoning.
Through the study of the recipe just now, Zheng Ke found that the difficulty of this dish lies in the sauce, which is the so-called "teriyaki sauce".
This sauce has a mellow flavor and a shiny color, so when poured on the outside of the squid, it does not affect the appearance of the squid and adds flavor to the dish.
Teriyaki sauce is the key to the whole dish.
Zheng Ke put the fried squid on a plate, but suddenly heard Asami arguing with someone else.
