With the sound of the command "the halberd begins", Liu Pleiades and Shinomiya Kojiro took out the cooking table at the same time, and the two of them named the crabs they needed before......

Different from the official halberd, the ingredients this time are all provided by the Far Moon Hotel. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The ingredients selected by the four palaces, the "king crab" that is officially used during the course during the daytime!

The crab taken out by Liu Pleiades has a nearly round body, with a green back of the cephalothorax and a gray ventral surface, and dense villi on the inner and outer edges of the double chelae...... It is the Chinese mitten crab, which is often called "hairy crab"!

"Huh? That's a mitten crab? It's rare......" Donato said, touching his chin.

"It's worthy of the Far Moon Hotel, and there are still fresh stocks of such out-of-the-way ingredients!" Hinata said.

"Of course, the goal of the Far Moon Hotel is to serve all customers." Dojima Silver said.

Indeed, even in Japan, which is bordered by the land of China, "hairy crabs" are rarely used as ingredients, and most of the hairy crabs imported from Japan are also consumed in Chinatown......

In Western countries, the "hairy crab" from freshwater crabs is not in the scope of ingredients!

Because there are sea crabs with thicker meat heads, which can better meet the dietary habits of Westerners, even if "hairy crabs" become invasive species and breed in large numbers in the West, they still only have the life of feed.

After all, each civilization has its own eating habits, just like in Japan, there were very few sheep in the past, and although there are more sheep now, there are still few mutton dishes......

But in Chinese cuisine, hairy crabs are aquatic products!

Although he knew that Liu Pleiades was good at Chinese cuisine, but before that, no one else except Dojima Silver knew that Liu Pleiades actually wanted to rely on freshwater crabs to "eat halberds"!

Even Erina looked at him puzzled, not understanding what the hell Liu Pleiades was doing, knowing that the judges were not used to eating freshwater crabs......

At this time, both of them had blocked out external interference, and at the same time began the same first step, which was to remove the crab meat.

For king crabs, perhaps it is more appropriate to "peel" out the crab meat, Sigong didn't make much effort, and peeled out the thick king crab crab leg meat, and Liu Pleiades ...... It didn't seem to take much effort, so I used a small paring knife and a small boning knife to quickly remove the crab meat of the "hairy crab"!

After the beginning of the steps, the behavior of the two was very different, and I saw Sigong using long chopsticks to skillfully put the king crab leg meat in cornstarch...... Wrong! It is a mixture of cornstarch and a layer of sauce.

The functions and ingredients of corn starch and Taibai powder are similar, one is corn starch and the other is potato starch, which are usually thickened.

And there is obviously olive oil in this sauce, which looks very sticky!

After that, Shinomiya bakes the crab leg meat wrapped in sauce in the oven......

"Huh? What is Senior Shinomiya doing? Dry Hinata wondered.

Shinomiya didn't mean to hide it, and replied directly: "It's 'French cheese baked crab'!" ”

"Cheese Baked Crab?" Dry Hinata really didn't see where this looked like cheese baked crab.

Indeed, Sinomiya's current cuisine, although it was the first dish in this afternoon's class, was obviously an improved version, completely different from the recipe that Liu Pleiades had seen before.

The daytime recipe is a generic version of crab meat coated in cornstarch and then fried...... It is very different from the current practice of the four houses.

And Liu Pleiades is using the crab shell, adding other spices, and boiling the broth on the side!

Seeing that Liu Pleiades had put a lot of thought into the soup, other people present even wondered if Liu Pleiades was going to use crab shells as ingredients after the crab meat was "removed"?

It wasn't until Liu Perixing was finally satisfied with the soup that it was an hour later that he put the soup aside and continued to boil, and began to cut chopped green onions, shiitake mushrooms, and bamboo shoots.

You must know that although there are many soups that need to be boiled for an hour, it takes an hour to constantly change the ratio of ingredients and improve the soup, which is rare......

In addition to being puzzled, the judges couldn't help but have a greater sense of expectation than the crab meat dish for this soup stock, which concentrated almost half of Liu Pleias's energy!

After Liu Pleiades kept beating four eggs in his hands, he stir-fried the chopped green onions, diced mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and hairy crab meat in a certain order, and then added them to the egg liquid!

Liu Pleiades made a move at this time, thought about it and compared some of the crab flavor juice in the "five-flavor fish flavor" and added it to the raw eggs.

After that, I put some egg wash in a small dish with a spoon, dipped my little finger on the egg wash, and felt it on the tip of my tongue a little, and then nodded with satisfaction.

Donato, who had a double chin, looked at him suspiciously and said, "Huh? Liu Pleiades seems to be doing ...... Hibiscus eggs? ”

"Hibiscus eggs?"

"That's right, Cantonese cuisine, which belongs to Chinese cuisine, is it similar to adding various ingredients to an uncooked fried egg to form a very different flavor omelet?" Donato's voice fell, and I saw Liu Pleiades put the raw egg liquid mixed with other ingredients into the foaming machine!

"This—This is ......"

Seeing that Liu Pleiades actually used such a "violent" method to stir the "egg liquid", it also caused countless air to enter the egg liquid, it is conceivable that the "egg cake" fried in such a way will be unusually soft.

"Crab soufflé eggs, that's the name!" Liu Pleiades said.

It is the recipe of the "Crab Hibiscus Egg" that has been slightly changed with some ingredients, and the foaming machine used before frying will greatly increase the fluffiness of the omelet......

That's right, it was under the influence of Chuangzhen, who was almost eliminated because of the selection of materials in the morning, that Liu Pleiades made such a change to "Hibiscus Egg"!

A large bowl full of raw mixed egg liquid was divided into four small crucibles by Liu Pleiades, and four small portions of "crab meat soufflé eggs" were fried at the same time......

Because of the high-power foaming machine, while the ingredients in the egg liquid are stirred evenly, a lot of gas is also beaten into it, and at this time, under the frying, the gas expands inside, forming a fluffy "soufflé"!

It's just that this soufflé is not used as a snack or dessert for the first meal, but as a fluffy version of the "hibiscus egg"!

"No wonder it has to be stir-fried in advance and then added to the raw egg mixture! Interesting idea......" Donato exclaimed.

"But it's still just a hibiscus egg, right?" Hinata said with her head tilted slightly on the side.

Donato's sigh is not unreasonable, you must know that the time and temperature of diced mushrooms, bamboo shoots, crab meat, and raw eggs need to be heated are not the same, so they can't be fried at once, so there is a scene where they are fried before.

Otherwise, if you stir-fry now, it will inevitably destroy the quality of the "soufflé" general "hibiscus egg......

At this time, an hour and fifty minutes have passed, and both sides have reached the final yard stage, only to see Liu Pleiasion's three small portions of "crab meat soufflé eggs", with a cake-like appearance, in a cup of just the right size.

There is also a bowl of brown crab soup that looks unsightly, and has been strained without ingredients and ingredients, and then covered with a plate lid.

On the other hand, Kojiro Shinomiya has three "special cheese baked crabs", in which in addition to the leg meat of king crab, there are also winter melons, tomatoes, and other vegetables and fruits that are suitable for eating with crabs prepared by Shinomiya as a foil.

There were no other side dishes, just a separate dish under the lid of the plate......

At nine o'clock sharp, Erina punctually announced, "It's time!" Now let's serve the dishes in turn! ”

This time it was "premeditated", and Liu Pleiades presented the dishes first, and the dishes with three plates covered were delivered to the three judges.

The three of them opened the lid of the dinner plate at the same time, only to see that there were three cups of "crab meat soufflé eggs" that seemed to be bouncing, and a small bowl of crab soup appeared in front of them!

The crab soufflé egg is mixed with the fresh egg aroma of crab meat umami and the rich crab flavor of crab soup, and the mixture alternately pours into the nose.

"It smells good!" Donato shrugged his Adam's apple.

I pressed the crab soufflé egg with the back of a spoon to feel its fluffy texture, and then put a spoonful of the fragrant soufflé egg mixed with crab meat, shiitake mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and chopped green onions......

"This is a freshwater crab......"

The three of them seemed to see the fat hairy crabs in the canal, pouring into the shore in groups.

Although the meat is not thick, it is also firm in the small size, and the crab roe has a stronger freshness than sea crabs, although it is less grainy...... The three of them even had the idea that "maybe freshwater crabs are not bad".

"Huh? This egg...... Why is the crab aroma strong? Donato wondered.

"It's a simulated taste, right? In Kadozaki Taki's class, Liu Pleiades and Ryo Hayama teamed up to make it once, using other ingredients and spices to simulate the taste of crab meat. Dojima Silver said.

"Huh? What kind of assessment does it have to do? Donato looked at Tsunozaki Taki, who turned his head away in some embarrassment.

"And this crab soup, which is also part of the dish, right?" Hinata said.

Saying that, Dojima Silver and Hinata picked up a small bowl of crab soup......

In Japan, it is not customary to use a spoon to drink soup, but directly from a bowl, and Donato is the only one of the three who has a spoon on his plate.

"Huh?" After the crab soup was eaten, Hinata and Donato frowned, as if they felt that Liu Pleiades's performance was not up to par.

And Dojima Silver stared at the crab soup in his hand with a puzzled gaze......

Erina suddenly said, "Please don't waste too much of it, judges!" If you don't finish the soup, you can only pour it out! ”

Hearing Erina say this, Hinata and Donato took two more sips, after all, it just made people feel that it did not meet the level of Liu Pleiades's performance, but it was not unpalatable......
