CH.453 Blanched Sea Bream Fillet
The taste of the side dish is already so delicious, and the fish head, which is the main dish, is naturally the most important part of Erina's dishes.
Of course, the three judges knew this, especially after tasting the side dishes, and they also had a lot of expectations for the fish head.
Eastward Road pits the fish head into its mouth, and a delicious smell hits the face. At this moment, he seems to be in the middle of the sea, and he himself is like a flying fish swimming freely in the sea. The smell of seafood in the fish is constantly coming up.
"It's deliciousโ" Eastwaru closed his eyes and felt the freshness of the fish's head, "The freshness of the fish has not been affected by cooking, the freshness of the fish has been well preserved, and every cell of the fish seems to be full of vitality when I try such an ingredient." โ
"The adjuncts used, whether it's the juice or the light soy sauce, enhance the umami of the fish. Although the fish head is delicious, the fish head is also the most fishy place. In this dish, sake and mirin are used to enhance the flavor of the fish head and remove the fishy smell of the fish head. Charum looked up, a shallow smile on his face.
"If we're not mistaken, turnips are boiled with fish heads, right?" Anne took a deep breath and looked at Erina suspiciously.
"Yes. Erina bowed slightly.
"But the taste of the turnips has not been affected, and the harder parts of the fish head and the softer parts are cooked just right, and the flavors of the various ingredients are relatively even, how on earth do you?" asked Anne curiously.
"This method is called 'cutting the pot'. Erina took a deep breath and explained.
"What is a pot?" the students in the stands immediately wondered.
"The so-called cutting pot is to put them in the same position according to the characteristics of different ingredients in one pot, so that their texture is moderate and the taste is uniform, just like splitting a pot, and each area corresponds to a different heat. Erina Nagikiri explained simply.
"But...... Wouldn't it be possible to cook in different pots?" asked Yoshino Yuhime, puzzled.
"It's possible to boil in different pots together, but if you also consider Erina's energy, the physical exertion in such a competition is far beyond what most people think. Moreover, if you use too many pots, the more likely you are to make a mistake. Zheng Ke explained simply.
"Cut the pot...... Anne nodded slightly, picked up a piece of fish head again, and ate it in her mouth.
Delicious fish head, sweet turnips, and fragrant coltson are paired with mirin, thin soy sauce, sauce, and ginger slices...... Both the flavor and the texture have reached a delicate height. These ingredients are already quite delicious in themselves when eaten separately, but when these delicacies are superimposed, this layer of deliciousness is simply irresistible.
It's so delicious!
"Nice!" Yuhime Yoshino shouted excitedly as he saw the three teachers with expressions of enjoyment, "Now, we should have a chance to win, right?"
Zheng Ke also nodded slightly, but Erina, who is just a first-year student, can make such exquisite dishes, and it really lives up to the name of the strongest student since the opening of Yuanyue School Park.
After getting off the judges' seat, Erina weakly untied her hairband, stood under the stage, and swept her eyes to the stands, Saito Susuaki applauded Erina, "Very good dish." โ
"Shouldn't I feel honored to be complimented by 'Sushi Masters'?" said Erina with a chuckle.
"No, you don't need anyone's praise for your talent in cooking. Saito brought his dishes to the tray, "However, my strength is also very strong. โ
Erina bowed slightly to Saito and watched him walk up to the judges' seat.
Having just tried Erina's fish head dish, the three judges still had a feeling of being unsatisfied, and their attention was drawn to the table in front of them when they saw that Saito was about to put the dish on the table in front of them.
The white sea bream meat is tender and juicy, like layers of snow stacked on top of each other, giving you a sense of calmness from the heart. The yam is cut into small cubes and placed on top of the soft fish, which is fragrant and bright. The gorgeous seaweed, green Suaeda and wasabi puree make the whole dish full of green vitality, and the rich plum meat sauce makes the three judges salivate.
"What's the name of this dish?" Anne asked Saito, who was standing in front of her.
"Blanched sea bream fillet. Saito said softly.
Anne nodded slightly, the characteristics of this dish are similar to Erina's dishes, all of which highlight the original taste of the ingredients.
Both dishes are seabream-themed Japanese dishes, but who is better?
With this doubt, Anne picked up her chopsticks and gently picked up a piece of sea bream meat.
The meat of the sea bream quickly spreads out in the mouth after the mouth. The sharp kitchen knife cuts the incision so that the sea bream fillet still retains the fresh taste, and the hot water below 80 degrees Celsius is used to soak the fish, which not only ensures the freshness of the fish, but also gives the fish a good shape and color.
The sea bream meat in this dish is of moderate thickness, and the beautiful aroma of the sea bream is fully displayed, so that Anne can clearly feel the smell of the sea.
Running barefoot on the cool sand, the clear water washed the surface of the feet, a kind of heartfelt coldness welled up in the heart, the body trembled, and the whole body seemed to be numb.
Snow-white seagulls flying in the sky, crabs walking on the beach, shrimp in the shallow water, and the sea breeze blowing on your body......
If possible, Anne would rather be a mermaid and be with the blue sea forever.
"Whew......" Anne opened her eyes and looked at Saito in front of her, "Yes, very good dishes." โ
"Thank you. Saito bowed slightly, "I'm glad you like it." โ
"I don't know much about fish fillets, but I want to say that your grasp of the thickness of the fish fillets, in this dish, is really just right. Anne picked up a slice of fish, and the tender slices of meat were even more delicate in the light, like a piece of jade.
"Thickness?"
After Anne's reminder, the eyes of the Polestar crowd fell on the fish caught in mid-air.
Zheng Ke and Yi Shihui saw this scene, and their brows furrowed tightly.
"Thickness, do you have any requirements for sashimi?" said Tano, who was a little flustered.
"The sashimi in other dishes may not be too strict in terms of thickness, but this one is different. Yi Sehui said with a serious expression.
"Why?" asked Yoshino Yuhime, and the others looked at Ichishiki with confused expressions.
"Probably...... Is it because the sashimi in this dish is too hot?" Zheng Ke speculated by touching his chin.
