Removing the bean skin, Zheng Ke put the tofu into a sieve, and kneaded it into a puree. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Eh, what is Zheng Ke doing?"
"I don't know, shouldn't all the tofu be cut into bean pieces?"
Many people didn't understand Zheng Ke's approach, and even the other side didn't see through Zheng Ke's actions for a while.
However, Zheng Ke didn't have the energy to listen to what others said, and he didn't even have time to look up and look at the Jiu I Zhaoji on the other side.
After kneading the tofu into a puree, Zheng Ke wrapped the pureed tofu tightly in a white cloth and squeezed it hard, and the water in the white cloth was squeezed out.
Because both sides want to do Chinese cuisine, and the three judges in the stands are all proficient in Western and Japanese cuisine, although they are also involved in Chinese cuisine, but they cannot reach the point of proficiency.
"This classmate's dish is undoubtedly mapo tofu. Nagi Sowei pushed the middle frame of his eyes with his index finger, and his gaze stayed on the body of Kuga Teruki.
For a long time, I scooped three tablespoons of oil, put it in a hot iron pot, and when it was six years old, I put the minced beef into it, and then slowly stir-fry until the rich aroma of the meat penetrated into the nostrils, and the tender meat crumbs were fried to a golden brown.
"What about Zheng Ke?" asked Dojima Gin.
"Zheng Ke, do you mean the person on the other side?" Nagi Zong Wei looked back at Zheng Ke and shook his head, "I don't know." But whether it's good or not, I can tell very clearly. ”
Dojima Silver didn't continue to ask, in Chinese cuisine, there are countless dishes related to tofu, and he is not sure that he has eaten every dish, and the dishes that Zheng Ke is cooking now are indeed not too common.
"I hope it tastes better. ”
Zheng Ke puts the squeezed tofu into a stainless steel basin, then adds minced meat, flour, eggs and other ingredients to it, and stirs well until the trimmings disappear into the sticky tofu puree.
"This tofu looks so sticky. Kobayashi Gentian pinched his nose, "It's a bit like stinky tofu, Senior Ye, you should be able to see what kind of food this is by now, right?"
"Mapo tofu. Ye Qiuling said.
"Mapo Bean...... Senior, you're so annoying. You know I'm talking about Xiao Zheng Ke's cuisine. Kobayashi Gentian said dissatisfied.
Ye Qiuling smiled, teasing these reserves, it was really interesting, "Now I have just seen some clues, but I am still not too sure what the specific dishes are." However, don't worry, Zheng Ke will always show his cooking. Neither of these dishes will be too long, and you should be able to see them soon. ”
Tofu is an ingredient that is extremely well cooked, so it will not be boiled for too long, otherwise it may be destroyed due to the structure. and lose the elastic taste.
"Also, these two people cook very quickly, especially Zheng Ke...... I always feel that his cooking is a little different from before. ”
Kobayashi Gentian bit his lip, but he couldn't say what was different for a while.
"It should be concentration, right?" Ye Qiuling said.
"Focus?"
Ji Zhiguo Ningning's eyes were on Zheng Ke's body, but he saw that when Zheng Ke was cooking, there were almost no superfluous movements, and all actions had only one purpose - to make a high-quality dish.
Therefore, when Zheng Ke was cooking, not only was the speed fast enough, but also the handling of the dishes and the control of the heat were surprisingly decisive, which made Ji Zhiguo Ningning feel uneasy in his heart.
This kind of uneasiness is not aimed at Zheng Ke, but for herself. I thought that when I returned home during the holiday and picked up traditional Japanese cuisine from scratch, I would be in a favorable position in the duel with Zheng Ke, and I might even get an absolute advantage. Now it seems that I am a little too optimistic.
"Senior Ye, Zheng Ke...... The understanding of cooking, no, is concentration, so powerful......" Ji Zhiguo Ningning said in surprise.
Ye Qiuling nodded, and at the same time felt extremely sorry for Zheng Ke's refusal of his invitation just now.
However, people with real strength will not be willing to be subordinate, just like themselves, don't they also think about how to open their own restaurant?
At this time, the prototype of Zheng Ke's cuisine gradually emerged. After holding the tofu puree into olive-sized balls, the balls are fried in a pan of oil until the surface is goose yellow, and the tofu dough is removed and boiled in a pot with fresh soup, while cooking wine, pepper, cabbage, ham slices and other ingredients are added to the other pot to boil.
Seeing this, Ye Qiuling nodded, "I've finally determined Zheng Ke's dishes." ”
"What dish?" asked Kobayashi Gentian.
"Pocket tofu. ”
"Pocket tofu?"
The Ten Masters of Yuanyue who were present were slightly stunned, and when they looked at Zheng Ke again, their doubts were slightly solved.
"Senior Ye, I've eaten pocket tofu, and I've made it myself, it's not like this. Erina Nagikiri said in a lost voice.
"I know. Ye Qiuling listened to Erina's words and bowed slightly, "The dish you are talking about should be cut into thin strips of tofu, then soaked and fried in oil, and then boiled together with good soup, right?"
Erina Nagikiri nodded.
"The dish you're talking about is the most common pocket tofu. In fact, Zheng Ke makes another kind of pocket tofu, but its method is more complicated, and of course, the taste is better. ”
Erina frowned, and was about to take a closer look at Zheng Ke's dishes, when she suddenly saw Kuga Teruki pick up the wok and pour the dishes from the pot into the plate, and it was only an hour after the time left the race.
"Isn't it? I've already done it for a long time?"
"Mapo tofu is a relatively common dish, and the recipe is not complicated, that's why it's so fast, right?"
"Makes sense. ”
The members of the Chinese Cuisine Seminar, who were cheering for the Kuga Shori, immediately became angry when they heard the conversation from the audience.
Shiho Tanimoto turned his head and yelled at the audience who were talking: "How do you know that the method is not complicated, and the mapo tofu that we will grow up to be the same as ordinary tofu?"
"Exactly!" said the members of the Huaxia Cuisine Seminar in unison.
Hisashi Teruki had just picked up the food, and when he heard Shiho Tanimoto's words, his hands trembled, and the food on his plate almost fell to the ground.
This bastard, after the game, must give him a good lecture, and in public, he must not do anything that damages the image of the seminar.
"Zheng Ke, in this game, I went first. "I said to Zheng Ke for a long time.
Unexpectedly, Zheng Ke didn't even raise his head, and continued to cook his own dishes.
"Cut. "For a long time, I gritted my teeth, took his food, and stepped onto the judges' table.
