CH.168 Winter melon and soft-shelled turtle

The time on the big screen quickly decreased, and in the blink of an eye, there was only half an hour left.

Hang Ziqi was still sitting on the stool, paying attention to the dishes in front of him, while Kobayashi Gentian put the side dishes and soft-shelled turtle on the plate, turned around and waved at the judges.

"Judges, I'm done. ”

Zheng Ke couldn't help but laugh out loud when he looked at the way Xiaolin Gentian waved his hands.

"Senior Sister Kobayashi, it's really different. ”

Even if you're done, you don't need to be so excited, right?

After getting permission from the three judges, Kobayashi Gentian took the dish to the judges' table and placed her plate in front of the three judges.

Although the outer layer of winter melon has been stripped away, the surface of the melon has remained green due to the use of salt and baking soda, and the tender soft-shelled turtle meat has become more delicious after boiling. Green spinach, white shredded green onions, and finely shredded ginger make the whole dish less greasy and more elegant. The soft-shelled turtle soup is crystal clear, and the style is consistent with the dish.

Although I haven't started tasting it yet, after seeing this dish, the eyes of the three people all brightened!

Eating food for so many days in a row has given them an understanding of most of the food, but it is so simple and elegant as this dish that it does feel novel, which makes them feel the urge to eat the dishes impatiently.

"Kobayashi, what's the name of this dish?" Donna looked at Kobayashi Gentian with a happy face.

"Teacher, this dish is called ...... Stewed soft-shelled turtle with winter melon, please use it slowly. Kobayashi said with a grin.

"Stewed soft-shelled turtle with winter melon......? The winter melon is soft and light, and it goes well with delicious ingredients like soft-shelled turtle. ”

Add stared at the dishes in the bowl, and although the portions weren't too much, each ingredient was so delicate that he wanted to pick up his chopsticks urgently.

"Shall we start tasting it, two of you?" suggested Job, raising his hand.

Add and Donna nodded their heads.

"Let's try it now!"

The three judges couldn't wait to pick up the soft-shelled turtle meat, eat it in their mouths, and a warm spring breeze rushed towards them, entering along the gaps in the clothes, and making contact with the body.

The warm feeling made the three judges can't help but let out a soft moan.

This feeling is like ushering in a spring breeze in the ice and snow. Small green grass bursts from the ground and quickly tears through the snow of the frozen earth. The green of spring swept in at a very fast speed, making people feel an indescribable warmth.

Sake and ginger juice are boiled together with the soft-shelled turtle to remove the fishy smell of the soft-shelled turtle, and at the same time, the strong heat heats the alcohol of the sake to dissipate cleanly, and the mellow aroma that penetrates into the soft-shelled turtle meat is completely released after chewing, which makes people have an endless aftertaste.

But these are not the most charming parts of this soft-shelled turtle meat, its tender taste, like a dagger, piercing into the weakest place in people's hearts, even after swallowing, you can still feel the deliciousness and firmness of soft-shelled turtle meat in the mouth.

"This soft-shelled turtle meat is really delicious!"

Donna's brow stretched, and the smell of soft-shelled turtle meat completely occupied her taste buds and traveled along her nerves, to every part of her body.

"Obviously, the soft-shelled turtle meat has been cooked, but why, it still retains its freshness and firmness?" Job's curious look at Kobayashi Gentian.

Eddie also nodded, when he ate the soft-shelled turtle meat, he really felt that it was alive, this feeling, it was really peculiar.

"Add water. Kobayashi Gentian said simply.

"Huh?"

The three of them looked confused and looked at Kobayashi Gentian in confusion.

"Ahem...... Kobayashi Gentian also felt that his explanation was too simple, and said again, "Actually, when boiling, keep adding water to the pot to keep it at the edge of boiling." In this way, the soft-shelled turtle submerged in the water can be cooked, and the meat of the soft-shelled turtle will become very compact. ”

Zheng Ke listened to Kobayashi's answer and nodded again and again.

This aspect is very simple to say. But it's a little difficult to think about that in such a big competition. What's even more rare is that most people, even if they know this method, may not be able to cook the right effect. This method, the requirements for chefs, are quite high.

Judging from the judgment of the judges, the effect of Kobayashi's gentian cooking should be very good.

"It's really not Gentian Senior Sister, maybe, maybe she can really win!" Zheng Ke touched his chin with a relaxed expression.

"Don't look at Kobayashi Gentian doesn't usually cook much, but she has eaten a lot of food. So, it's clear which method you use to handle your ingredients will have the better results. That's her advantage, isn't it?" said Si Yingshi softly.

It turns out that the "foodie attribute" of the senior sister also has its uses.

The three judges on the field continued to taste and tasted all the ingredients in the bowl.

It's also strange to say, it looks like a very ordinary ingredient, but when you eat it, it's completely different from what you imagined.

The tender spinach, with a faint aroma of soy sauce and the smell of the sea, should have been soaked in some kind of soy sauce or soup from boiling kelp, and the shredded ginger is also finely chopped, and it is paired with the delicious soft-shelled turtle soup, which makes people feel warm.

This dish is really different from all previous dishes, when you try it, the light taste is eye-catching, but when you put down the chopsticks, you are reluctant to give up, and the taste buds and even the brain have left its aftertaste.

The three judges put down their chopsticks, but picked them up again, and quickly ate all the dishes in front of them.

When Kobayashi Gentian walked down the judges' seat, with a thick smile on his face, he gave a thumbs up to Zheng Ke and Si Yingshi, who were far away from the judges' seat.

"Senior sister, you are really confident. Zheng Ke shook his head helplessly.

"That's her character, maybe she's already feeling that she can win this fight. Si Yingshi said lightly.

"I hope so. Zheng Ke said from the bottom of his heart.

Today,Maybe it's the last time he'll represent Yuanyue Academy.,He doesn't want to lose.。

"That's great! Yoshino clenched his fists excitedly.

"Senior, senior, how is this dish of Senior Sister Gentian?" Tian Suhui hurriedly turned his head and asked Xiang Xuanli and Shiraishi Ryuichi.

"Senior Shiraishi, I don't have a deep study of Japanese cuisine, don't you say?" Xuan Li kicked the ball to Shiraishi.

Bai Shilong glared at Xuan Li depressedly and scratched his head helplessly. His understanding of Japanese cuisine is not as good as that of some Japanese restaurant chefs, but he can still see much further than these students.

"This Japanese dish of Gentian is of a very high standard, both in terms of the selection of ingredients and the cooking techniques. None of you on the scene can do better. So, I think you should have faith in her. ”

Bai Shirishi looked at the big screen and said what he thought.
