What's in the basin?

This is something that Zheng Ke is extremely curious about. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Akane Kubo didn't make everyone wait too long, and quickly took the ingredients out of the basin, looked twice, and put them in the basin again.

"In the basin is ...... Clams (ge)clams!"

"Where's the basin? There's milk in the whole basin, it's a basin. ”

"It's worthy of the Ten Masters, it's really amazing, and it is really amazing to think of soaking clams in milk. ”

"What do you think he's so good about?"

"To ...... Do you want to take care of it? Anyway, it's amazing. ”

Zheng Ke looked at the clams in Akane Kubotao's hand, and was also shocked, this kind of seafood can be cooked with milk? Moreover, Why do you soak clams in milk?

Clams, with light brown oval shells on the outside and light purple edges, are known as "the freshest in the world" because of their delicious flesh, and are rich in protein, amino acids and other nutrients. In Chinese folk, there is even a saying that "if you eat clam meat, all the flavors will fail". This shows how delicious the clams are.

The five examiners on the examination seat were also all interested.

"Kyosuke Tsuruta-sensei, what do you think this student thinks, why do you use milk to soak clams?" asked Sumire Yamauchi to a short-haired man in a kimono sitting next to her.

Kyosuke Tsuruta is not very old, about twenty or thirty years old, and he looks extraordinarily energetic.

He was originally a student of Yuanyue School Park, but in the promotion exam of the second grade, he was unfortunately eliminated. After leaving the Far Moon School Park, he didn't lose heart, but with hard work, he became the head chef of a medium-sized restaurant. Compared to some graduates, it is not lagging behind.

So,Among the people who dropped out of the Far Moon School Park,Kyosuke Tsuruta is like an idol-like existence.。

"Soaking clams in milk eliminates the smell of clams and makes the meat softer. I think that's why Akane Kubo Momo handled it the way he did. However, clams have a very umami taste, so be extra careful with their handling, and if the seasoning is not added well, it is likely to have the opposite effect. After a while, Miss Akane Kubo will bring the food to us, and we will be able to try one or two. ”

"Can a little girl handle clams? I'm sorry, I'm not suspicious of the Far Moon Academy, I'm just a little curious. Sumire Yamauchi was a little worried.

"Your worries are perfectly normal, after all, she looks like she's just a little girl. It's just that Miss Akane Kubo is one of the ten masters. Maybe you haven't been in the Far Moon School Park and don't understand the power of the Ten Masters. Anyone who can become a top ten can stand alone after graduation. I think that Miss Akane Kubo, who is one of the top ten masters, should have her own plan since she thought of using these two ingredients as ingredients. ”

The conversation between the two immediately attracted the interest of others, and a fat man with a red nose said, "By the way, Master Tsuruta, you also know that my biggest hobby is eating." Especially seafood such as clams, I love it. So I'm curious, what do you all do with the sand and mud in the clams?"

Kyosuke Tsuruta looked back at the person who spoke, it was the gourmand Minami Hirao, and immediately laughed softly: "Mr. Hirao, clams are a food that can inhibit the synthesis of cholesterol and accelerate the excretion of cholesterol. ”

Hirao's face was slightly red, and he immediately nodded. Kyosuke Tsuruta is reminding him to pay attention to his diet, otherwise his body may become ill.

was suddenly mentioned about his health, however, Minami Hirao also knew that it was for his good, and although he felt a little embarrassed, he still didn't take it to heart.

"There are actually many ways to make clams vomit sand. The most common way is to find a larger container with a lid, put the clams in the container, pour in the water that has only been covered by the clams, and shake your hands back and forth, but don't use too much force, otherwise the shells will break. After two or three minutes, the sediment will be spit out. Repeat this three or four times. It can wash away the sediment.

"But Miss Akane Kubo should have already done this. ”

The other judges heard Kyosuke Tsuruta's words and looked at the center of the arena, where Akane Kubo Momo crushed the steamed potatoes into mashed potatoes and stir-fried them with butter and onions. The whole action is so smooth that it is difficult to think of her identity as a pastry chef.

"Sister Akane Kubo-senpai looks cute, and her focus is on desserts, but after all, she is also one of the ten masters, and her strength is definitely not weak. ”

"Well, I bet, it's going to be 5-0 and there's no other result. ”

"Haha...... Whoever bets with you is a fool. Who's on the other side? It's just a transfer student. You know, even if I come over in person for a long time, it is destined to be 0:5. Do you think he's even better than Kuga Teruki? ”

"These bastards!" Asami clenched her fists, eager to get rid of all these cool talkers.

Someone else is in a game, and saying these things will affect the players.

"Have confidence in Zheng Ke. Rushing to refute is a sign of unconfidence, and now except for us, no one can believe Zheng Ke. Yishihui crossed her fingers and looked at Zheng Ke in the venue with a nervous expression.

"But it is useless for us to believe in him. The opponent is Akane Kubo, can he win?" Asami said unconfidently.

"Yes! I believe him. Although there is still a gap in strength between the two, the theme of this dish is Chinese cuisine, and Zheng Ke's advantages are self-evident. And the key thing is that his movements are natural and smooth, without the slightest hesitation. I don't know what he's cooking, but he knows exactly what he's going to do next. He is very confident in this dish. Ishaki crossed her arms and sat up straight.

"Yes...... Really?"

Asami looked at Zheng Ke, who was busy in the arena, suspiciously, but not as relaxed as Isshiki said.

"Sister Akane Kubo will cover the pot and should boil it for a while, on the other hand, Zheng Ke also took out a piece from the thermos box...... A piece of tofu!" Katagiri Yuanzi shouted in surprise after seeing Zheng Ke's ingredients.

"Tofu?" Yi Sehui didn't expect that the ingredient that excited Zheng Ke two days ago would be tofu.

However, when you think about it, tofu has a delicate and tender taste, and there are many similarities with milk, and the flavors of the two do not conflict. With this in mind, it is easy to use tofu and milk to make a meal.

Now what makes Isshiki curious is what Zheng Ke will use tofu for cooking.

The five examiners on the examination bench all turned serious when they saw this dish.

Although I haven't seen Zheng Ke's cuisine yet, there is no doubt that Zheng Ke and Akane Kubo Momo have completely different ideas.

Akane Kubo uses the flavor of milk to add texture and flavor to the clams, while Zheng Ke tries to avoid the conflict between the milk and the ingredients, so his solution is to hide the milk in the ingredients.

But can it really be avoided?

The five examiners were not optimistic about Zheng Ke, and the most important thing was that they had not seen the milk appear until now.

"I didn't expect you to use tofu. Akane Kubo Momo suddenly interjected.

"Haha...... I didn't expect it either, but fortunately, I finally remembered. Zheng Ke said with a smile.

"How do you tell the difference between the taste of tofu and milk?"

"Distinction?" Zheng Ke was slightly stunned, "Why do you want to distinguish?" Senior sister, are you interested in this dish of mine, or I'll make you one?"

"Who...... Who's going to eat your food?" said Momo Akane Kubo, lifting the lid and smoke billowed to her face.
