"Oh, and the origin?"

Mo Qi was stunned for a moment, and said with interest: "Blue is better than blue! This is a bit interesting!"

Rinko said with a smile, "Master Mizutani's sushi is based on the taste of nature, without too many fancy designs, and the premise is to taste the original taste of the ingredients, so he is particularly particular about the selection of seasonal ingredients, which is exactly the same as that of Master Ono." ”

"Mr. Mizutani is always discerning when it comes to sourcing fresh fish, and he has his own line of goods, so he can always give his customers the freshest food. I have also been fortunate to have tasted the works of the master several times, which is really a blessing in three lifetimes!"

Speaking of this, Linzi couldn't help but show an expression of admiration, and said: "When you enjoy sushi at the Mizutani restaurant, you usually hold one and eat one by one, and the whole process is very rigorous, and the quiet atmosphere will even make consumers feel a little nervous." However, the chef's dexterous and rhythmic craftsmanship is like an art performance, so it's a pleasure to watch the chef's nigiri sushi. ”

"Finger love?"

Moqi laughed when he heard it, it was funny, he actually said in front of the magician that he enjoyed it between his fingers?

In the afternoon, Mo Qi closed the door and prepared for the next creative step, until six o'clock in the evening, Linzi came to pick up the group, and came to the Mizutani sushi restaurant in the Ginza Building, it is estimated that she has an acquaintance to introduce her, plus the identity of the TV station, so Mizutani made an exception to open two hours in advance, in order to entertain them.

"What a small shop!"

Xiao Li sat down excitedly, glanced at a small shop of less than 30 square meters, and secretly said to Kazuko: "This is the top sushi restaurant in Tokyo? If it were changed to China, this place would not even be enough for the kitchen!"

"You know how much the rent here is, and you won't say such things in the future!"

Kazumiko also had the first opportunity to come to the famous Mizutani sushi restaurant, glared at Xiao Li a little nervously, and warned: "Don't talk nonsense for a while, taste the food well, thanks to Miss Linzi, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, don't be rude!"

Xiao Li nodded, sat still with a serious face, waiting for the master's work. I was thinking that I would be able to find a chance to take pictures for a while, but suddenly I looked up and saw that there was a sign on the wall prohibiting taking pictures, which was a pity!

As soon as Rinko saw that Master Mizutani went to the back kitchen to prepare the ingredients, and there was still a little time, she briefly introduced: "In island countries, there is a saying that where there is fish, there is sushi!" This food is said to come from subtropical coastal and island areas, where people have found that if you put cooked rice in a clean fish bore and bury it in the ground, it can be stored for a long time, and the food will also produce a slightly sour umami taste due to fermentation, which is the prototype of sushi. ”

"Actually, there are different types of sushi, Edo style, nigiri sushi, Kansai style, box sushi, Osaka is the most famous, in contrast, nigiri sushi is more popular. Since no molds are used, it is all hand-made by the sushi chef, which not only ensures that the grains of the rice are rounded, but also effectively maintains the mellow flavor of the rice. ”

"Among them, nigiri sushi is a very unique one in the whole culinary field. Different fish materials, knife techniques, thickness, and even seasoning methods are different. Just as the order of tasting must be champagne, white wine, red wine, dessert wine or spirits, there is also a particular order of eating sushi. ”

"Just like in the documentary "The God of Sushi", the quality of nigiri sushi is all in the hands of the master. The nigiri sushi made by Jiro Ono has the ingredients on it that can be marinated or baked by the master for a fraction of a second, and the thickness of the slices can be accurate to millimeters. It is this spirit of craftsmanship that has shaped the unshakable status of nigiri sushi. ”

She pointed to a stack of turquoise dipping sauces in front of her: the wasabi used in sushi is not wasabi, the two are not the same thing at all. As the name suggests, wasabi is a powder made from mustard seeds. And the so-called wasabi is the wasabi that we often see. ”

"But in recent years, the quality of mustard seeds is not good enough, and wasabi is rare in the market, but how can you eat sushi without wasabi? Many merchants have no choice but to find wasabi as a substitute. But the most authentic and high-quality wasabi here in the water valley is said to be specially grown by yourself, which is also a major feature of our store!"

"Authentic sushi can have a variety of flavors such as sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty, etc. When eating sushi, you should match it with flavors according to the type of sushi. For example, when eating roll sushi, it is necessary to dip it in thick soy sauce and spread an appropriate amount of green wasabi because of the filling sashimi, shrimp, etc., while when eating nigiri sushi, it is best not to dip it in soy sauce so that it can be eaten in its original flavor. ”

"In addition to thick soy sauce and green wasabi, sushi also has an even more important ingredient – vinegar and ginger. Eating sushi with a slice of vinegar and ginger not only helps to serve the flavor, but also makes the sushi more refreshing and delicious. ”

Lin Zi smiled: "Of course, the vinegar here is also specially made by Mizutani, and even the ginger shreds are purchased by him himself, and they can be marinated many times before they can be tasted by guests." ”

"Craftsman spirit!"

Mo Qi looked at the inconspicuous two stacks of dipping sauce in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a trace of respect, this is the so-called craftsman spirit, only do one thing in his life, such as a hidden master who has been sharpening a sword for decades, once he is born, he can beat the invincible opponent all over the world with one move.

After a while, in his sixties, the thin Mizutani slowly walked out, smiled and brought out a few plates of freshly made sushi, gently placed it in front of Mo Qi, and looked curiously at the Chinese magician in front of him.

In fact, he and Linzi knew each other, and he used to entertain people from the TV station, but when he received a call this morning, he heard that he was going to come to the store to record a show, and his first reaction was to refuse, because his reputation no longer needed to be icing on the cake, but the other party's words made him very curious.

"The magician is coming to the store to do magic?"

Mizutani was stunned for a moment after hearing this? He began to get a little angry, he had regarded sushi as a dream all his life, and he absolutely could not tolerate others treating this craft as a joke! But the other side of the phone repeatedly assured that the Chinese magician was definitely a master and a genius praised by the TV station.

Not only is the level extremely high, but also from the mysterious China, there are many amazing stunts that are sure to open Mizutani's eyes. This made him a little curious, and he agreed to entertain the program team.

"This is tuna sushi, please taste it!"

Mo Qi looked at the four plates of sushi in front of him, simply placed in the middle of the snow-white plate, without a trace of other embellishments next to it, it seemed that Mizutani was very confident in his craftsmanship, and he no longer needed to decorate it with foreign objects.

"Tuna, also known as tuna, can be said to be the most well-known nigiri sushi ingredient, in order to adapt to the rhythm of high-speed cruising life, it uses the metabolism of swimming muscles to make the body temperature slightly higher than the ambient temperature, the muscles are rich in myoglobin, and the fish meat has a rich taste like red meat, and it is deservedly the king of nakedness. ”
