Episode 17 is-for-tat
"Mr. Hiroi, what's going on? These ingredients aren't very fresh. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
In the face of Shapelle's inquiry, Hiroi's smile instantly froze on her face, but soon, her face returned to normal.
"Well, there aren't many broccoli in stock, and the rest is pretty much the same. However, Director Chapelle, I would like to ask if other people can grab fresh broccoli, why can't they grab it?"
"Mr. Hiroi, if there is not enough fresh broccoli, someone will definitely use these broccoli that do not look good. We were just unlucky enough to use the flawed broccoli. And, as a chef, you are bound to encounter similar things later in your career. I think that being a qualified chef is to make delicious dishes when the conditions are insufficient. ”
"That's why you came up with vinegar for broccoli?" Chapell remembered the broccoli vinegar.
Zheng Ke nodded: "Vinegar has a bleaching effect, which can keep the broccoli bright in color, and at the same time, the sourness of the vinegar can also bring out the sweetness of the broccoli itself, so that the characteristics of broccoli can be maximized." ”
He remembered that Chapell was not a conformist, legalistic person.
In "The Spirit of the Halberd", when Kohei learned the dish of "beef stew with Burgundy red wine", he used honey to solve the problem that beef can make the meat hard in a short time, and he was highly praised by Chabels.
Also, at the time of the entrance exam, Chapel also didn't have much affection for Sanada, who had a rigid mindset.
Therefore, Zheng Ke's purpose in saying the above words was to put all his chips on Chapelle.
"What are you talking about, chefs? You're just students now. Just do what I teach you well. Hiroi put his hands on the table and gritted his teeth, "You don't need to think, you just need to listen to me, and then get things done." ”
"I'm sorry, teacher, but I don't agree with you. I think we were chefs before we were students. Zheng Ke patted his chest, facing the aggressive Hiroi, without flinching, "Since you are a chef, shouldn't you make the best cooking without being able to change the conditions? The chef is not a machine that knows nothing, but a living person. ”
Hiroi didn't expect that Zheng Ke, who had been silent, would suddenly erupt, and these words made her powerless to refute.
"Well, it's true that you're already a chef when you enter the kitchen, and as a chef you have to be improvised, and you shouldn't be bound by those rules. Mr. Hiroi, I think you think so too, right?"
"Ah...... It's ......"
Hiroi agrees with Chapell with great difficulty.
"However, the teriyaki sauce they make is not an authentic teriyaki sauce. The dish made with this sauce is not an authentic 'teriyaki squid'. ”
"Teacher, don't you know about this? They poured mirin and sake on the ground, so we couldn't make teriyaki sauce. Asami will point to the classmate.
"Hey, don't put all the blame on us. Although I accidentally planned sake and mira, this kitchen is not only going to have these two bottles of seasoning. ”
"I searched everywhere and didn't find any other sake and mirashi. Asami said.
Chapelle looked at Hiroi with a puzzled expression.
It is understandable that broccoli is not well stocked, because all ingredients have a problem with freshness, and if they are stored for too long, they will be oxidized or sprouted, and may even rot. However, there is no such problem with condiments in a short period of time, so under normal circumstances, there will be no shortage of condiments.
So if what Asami said is true, this is a dereliction of duty on the part of the teacher.
"No way. I just checked yesterday and there are four in the locker. There were three servings in today's dish, so there should be one more. Hiroi categorically denied Asami's claim, "Hey, you just made this dish, right?
The classmates at the back of the line nodded one after another, and Hiroi's face stretched slightly, and he said to Charpelle: "Director Charpelle, this girl actually slandered the lecturer, and I applied for a demerit punishment for her." ”
"I'm not lying, there really aren't these two spices in the locker. Asami was so anxious that she almost cried.
The punishment of demerits is far more severe than the E evaluation.,If she is really punished,It will be a stain on her in the Far Moon School Park.。
"Okay, then I'll convince you of the loss. ”
Hiroi took a look at Asami, stepped down from the podium, and came to the locker, looking for sake and mirin.
However, as time passed, Hiroi's expression became strange, and the long smile on his face faded away.
It's gone...... There is really no sake and miso in the locker.
"Teacher, there are two bottles of spice here. ”
Just as Hiroi looked stunned and didn't know how to explain it to Chapelle, a student pointed to the corner behind the refrigerator and said.
Hiroi hurriedly looked in the direction of the student's finger, and sure enough, there were two bottles of spice in glass bottles, standing quietly against the base of the wall.
"Teacher, you put the seasoning so hidden, I really can't find it. Asami gritted her teeth and said in a strange voice.
No matter how stupid Hiroi was, she could have guessed that someone had hidden these two bottles of spices here, and maybe it wasn't her who the person was trying to target, but she bravely jumped into the trap.
"Didn't you say you used seasoning?" Hiroi asked the student who had just answered her question.
"We were the teriyaki sauce that they had mixed before they clashed......"
"Alright, Mr. Hiroi, that's it. Although the two students did not use authentic teriyaki sauce, they also achieved the effect of seasoning and coloring teriyaki sauce. What exactly do you two use to replace these two spices? ”
Asami glanced at Zheng Ke, "Let him say the sauce he concocted." ”
The eyes of the people around him instantly focused on Zheng Ke's body.
Zheng Ke scratched his head in embarrassment, becoming the focus of so many people really made him a little uncomfortable.
"Originally, teriyaki sauce was made with soy sauce, mirin, sake, sugar, and other seasonings. After I didn't find mirin and sake, I wondered if I could replace it with rice wine and light soy sauce. In Chugoga, there are similar dishes, but there is no mirin and sake in ordinary households, so rice wine and light soy sauce are used instead. On top of that, I also use honey instead of sugar, which makes the whole dish more delicious, makes up for the oxidation of broccoli, and makes the squid tender. ”
In the end, a confident smile also appeared on Zheng Ke's face.
Chapel was very surprised by Zheng Ke's answer, and was able to use his experience to think of alternative methods in a limited time and conditions, which gave Zheng Ke the foundation to be an excellent chef. And this dish is much more delicate in detail and workmanship than "mapo tofu".
Over time, Zheng Ke may not fail to achieve remarkable results.
Chapel actually had some expectations for this transfer student.
However, although Mr. Chapel was very satisfied with Zheng Ke's answer, Hiroi was the lecturer of this class. The grade in this class had to be approved by her.
Before Hiroi spoke, all outcomes were possible.
However, Chapel didn't seem to think about this, and continued to pick up the knife and fork and cut off the broccoli next to him from a plate of "teriyaki squid".
"The texture is stiff, and I don't pay attention to the heat when cooking, and although the color is bright, the taste is not good...... Well, you have removed the fishy smell of the squid itself, and the taste is good, showing the saltiness and delicate taste of the squid, but your sauce is really poor. It's more than bright, the taste is not mellow, it should be that the amount of soy sauce is insufficient, so the taste of the whole dish is not outstanding, don't tell me, this classroom doesn't even have soy sauce. If you guys are in my class, there is no doubt about it. By the way, this dish should be your dish, right?"
Before the two boys could respond, Chapelle said to Hiroi, "Mr. Hiroi, I think since the two lecturers have different opinions on the same dish, do you need to find a third lecturer to judge?"
"Director Chappel, this is my class. Hiroi said dissatisfied.
"I knew it was your class, so I asked for a third lecturer to judge. If this weren't your class, I wouldn't have considered your opinion at all. ”
Domineering.
This is the only word Zheng Ke can think of that can be used to describe Chapelle.
Such a Chapelle, he had never seen it in "The Spirit of the Halberd".
Compared with Zheng Ke and Asami's relief, the two boys standing at the lectern looked more and more ugly. After Chapell said that their dishes should be E-rated, they guessed that their grades would not be too high.
