Chapter 3 Winning or Losing
Braised pork, although ordinary, is the first in the world that there is no tempeh, resulting in no seasoning soy sauce, and second, the pork has not been pickled, resulting in the need for quite laborious means to get rid of the fishy smell. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The great founder of the People's Republic of China, who liked to eat braised pork without soy sauce, used sugar and salt to adjust the excellent aroma instead, and was later called Maojia braised pork.
The boiling water cabbage is not boiled cabbage, but a fine dish at the state banquet, made of selected cabbage hearts and boiled clear soup, which seems to be unpretentious, but shows the soup making skills.
After the dish is cooked, the soup is mellow and elegant, clear to the bottom, the color of the dish is tender and green, the form is perfect, the sight is clear and clear, the smell is elegant and fragrant, the food is soft and tender, and the fresh fragrance is abnormal.
This dish is just as Sanji just said - simplicity contains prosperity.
Lu Yu and Mei Tang put on sanitary gloves, each cut the old hen well, washed; dried scallops soaked well, and washed ham hooves, ribs, etc. according to the category into different boiling water pots blanched, remove blood and impurities, take out and wash again, put into the big soup pot together, add water, ginger, green onions, add cooking wine after boiling, turn to low heat and boil slowly.
This made Sanji, who had to boil the black pine ** oil soup, look envious, jealous and hateful, and it seemed that what he was doing under his hands was not a rare dish, but a pile of dog food.
He swallowed his breath and concentrated on making the soup for his subordinates, silently reading: "Win him, win him...... The winner is king. ”
Lu Yu fried the braised pork with sugar color, and then with spices, and after putting it in the water, he stretched his waist and left, Mei Tang glanced at it and found that he was going to the location where the beautiful woman was hiding, so he went to the "same road" openly.
Sanji glanced up, then stopped paying attention, and concentrated on making his own three dishes, black pine ** oil soup, caviar, fried foie gras, although they are all the same dish, but there are more than ten processes to deal with it, which tests the chef's meticulous work the most.
Unconsciously, more than half an hour passed suddenly, the road fish came from a distance, the braised pork juice from the pot, suddenly, the fragrance spread all over the Quartet, people couldn't help but pay attention, and then, they became shocked, the big bowl was filled with pork, not crystal ruby crystal, and even sprinkled with gold leaf, otherwise in the sun, why is there a faint golden light emitted?
Lu Yu handed the big bowl of braised pork to Mei Tang, and without him saying it, the girl also trotted away with the big bowl, leaving about half of the braised pork for people to taste.
Sanji glanced up, and immediately drooled, and even wondered if he should just admit defeat and learn to do this. However, then he strengthened his mind again, and he made a world-famous treasured dish, although the ingredients selected were not top-notch, but with his craftsmanship, he believed that he could make up for it.
The rules of the cooking competition in this world are that ordinary people other than the chef will taste them, and then the loser will taste the dishes made by the winner, so as to be convinced, if you are not convinced...... The results have remained unchanged.
In the last Tokai Chef God Competition, Sanji was eliminated by a nobleman with money.
With only the processed foie gras left to fry, Sanji didn't pay attention to the mouth-watering pork, but prepared to make the last dish ready.
In a while, five pieces of foie gras were placed on the plate, and he hesitated for a long time when he was extremely confident, and after thinking about the bowl of gold and jade just now, he was unable to hold back, and he became more and more unconfident in the hand that decorated the plate.
No matter how much it is framed with external objects, it is less than one-tenth of the perception brought by its own beauty.
With a breath of exhalation, the young master of the restaurant on the sea closed his eyes, and after a long while, his hands flew quickly, as if he were piling up a palace, and he decorated the plates and foie gras with all his might.
In the end, a gorgeous plate that had never been seen before in Sanji's eyes and was also unprecedented in the East China Sea was born, and his curly eyebrows were raised triumphantly and he smiled.
"Come on...... Do you want to taste it......" Lu Yu handed over a piece of braised pork and said, "There is only one piece left, let's eat it while it's still hot." ”
"I can win!" Sanji said, holding his head high, looking at the enemy in front of him very defiantly.
"Oh!" Lu Yu nodded, and handed the piece of braised pork to the cooks who looked at the fried foie gras from time to time, and most of the time stared at the only piece of braised pork, "Here it ...... you."
"Wait!" Sanji immediately stopped, and said righteously: "It's the rule to leave a dish for each other!"
"Oh......" Lu Yu nodded and said, "Then I'll admit defeat!"
"......" Sanji's eyebrows twitched, and he asked in shock, "What?"
He was ready to fail, but the enemy in front of him actually admitted defeat.
"It's time to eat it now, it won't taste good later!" Lu Yu said seriously.
He didn't say anything more, just looked at the chef in front of him.
"Okay, I'll eat!"
Sanji quickly picked up a fork, with some discomfort - why so little, and sent that piece of crystal clear braised pork into his mouth very quickly.
“……”
Silent.
There was a long silence.
"I lost. Sanji licked his lips, nodded and said, "Convincing." ”
Seriously, if he hadn't cared for food, he would have thrown away the five gorgeous plates of fried foie gras in front of him, the color, aroma, everything is the taste in the mouth, and the rest are inconsequential.
When he put this piece of braised pork in his mouth, the sweetness of the melting, the softness of the flow, he tasted happiness, yes...... It reminded him of the feeling of being by his mother's side, completely different from the extravagant taste of fried foie gras, which was piled up with money.
What makes him even more convinced is that Lu Yu's attitude towards dishes as a chef is that he should eat a dish in his stomach when it is the best.
"It's delicious......" On the side, the cook also ate the five pieces of fried foie gras equally, showing an admiring expression, "It's just ......a little bit worse."
"What's missing?" Sanji said suspiciously, tasting a pan-fried foie gras in his mouth, and the taste of spreading out was absolutely delicious, but he was silent.
"Missing ......," thought a cook, racking his brains.
"There's a lack of 'heart', isn't it?" said Sanji.
"Yes, that's missing. "All those who have eaten fried foie gras suddenly realized that there is a lack of smart soul in the exquisite foie gras, which leads to only staying at the level of deliciousness, but it cannot be touched.
