Chapter 127: The counterattack of the five-kernel mooncake
"Please taste it! My 'Lemon Snow Cake'! "Takmi was the first to finish the cooking. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Five "snow cakes" decorated with lemon slices were placed in front of each judge.
The top layer of almonds and hazelnuts is top, and the bottom layer is the "ice cream" layer and the cake layer......
Of course, the so-called "ice cream" layer is not actually ice cream, and the translation of Snow Hidden should be considered "semi-ice cream".
It is a mixture of lemon juice and lemon crumbs, which is heated and cooled to give it a texture similar to ice cream.
And between the ice cream and the cake layer, there is a thin layer of lemon curd, if you don't look closely, you really can't notice!
Each of the five judges used a spoon to cut off a small piece of the snow cake that was soft enough to sway gently and put it in their mouths......
"Hmm! I've tried countless snow cakes, many of which were made by professional pastry chefs! But...... I don't have the feeling that this snow cake gives me! This feeling is ...... It's ......"
"It's lemon flavor, what's going on with this overwhelming lemon flavor? Could it be that in addition to the lemon you see, lemon flavor is actually added? ”
"Impossible! There's no way I can't taste the lemon flavor artificially! ”
When the judges wondered about the lemon flavor, Takmi smiled: "It's not the flavor, it's the 'lemon curd' I made myself." ”
"Lemon curd? It's the kind of condiment that originated in the UK, right? Once a tribute from the British royal family! ”
"I see, it's this thin layer between the snow and the cake, right? Just one layer of curd raises the flavor of this work to a higher level......"
"Wait, usually the ingredients for lemon curd should be eggs, granulated sugar, lemon juice and zest, and butter. But if you taste this lemon flavor carefully, it should not be butter, but ...... Olive oil? ”
Takmi said as he picked up the bottle of olive oil he had been carrying and said, "That's right, and it's my store's homemade lemon olive oil, which is used to make lemon curd, and the flavor is extraordinarily mellow and more acceptable." ”
Ma Chang Luo said: "No, this lemon curd only plays the role of 'finishing touch', although after 'finishing touch', the flavor of lemon snow cake is even better, but the reason why 'finishing touch' can be effective is because 'painting dragon' itself is also very successful!" ”
"That's right, along with the lemon curd full of Italian creativity, the cake with just the right amount of fluffiness and fine sponge, and the lemon snow with a moderate sweetness and sourness that makes you taste between your lips and teeth, are all the best choices......
Under the "prompting" of Baba Love, the judges' attention also returned to the snow cake itself!
This is definitely not just a dessert that consumes creativity, whether in terms of basics, improvements or creativity, it has reached an unimaginable height of being born in the hands of an annual person.
"It seems that that Liu Pleiades player is really going to be in some trouble this time!" Long Er said with a smile, he had also heard of Liu Pleiades's full score deeds before.
"Sure enough, when it comes to desserts, italian-born Takmi has a bigger advantage...... "Mitsuyoshi Anzai said the same.
"It's far from time to make up your mind! What Liu Pleiades did before, didn't you understand it? I love this kind of food that I don't know at all! "Baba Love has the same hobbies as a child.
"But the deliciousness of the dessert is not only determined by the amount of creativity, if it doesn't feel delicious enough, even if it's incomprehensible, it's just a gimmick." Saitama said, holding her chin.
Just when the judges' opinions were divided, the audience was already talking about this review.
"Takmi's guy...... It's really strong! ”
"It's true that the commander-in-chief was 'torn in clothes' at the beginning......"
"The worst thing is that he is also very good at desserts, which is too inferior compared to the transfer students who are better at Chinese cuisine."
"That's right, most of the Chinese desserts are not impactful enough, and it is difficult to ...... in the competition."
"Look! The transfer student's dessert has also been completed! ”
"Wait, wait...... What's that? ”
"Little biscuits...... Floating on a plate? Am I not mistaken? ”
"That's right! It's floating! ”
In the audience's discussion, Liu Pleiades also took out his "moon cakes" from the freezer, unlike the snow cakes, which must be refrigerated to taste the unique delicacy, Liu Pleiades' moon cakes are only slightly cooled to reduce the temperature of the previous baking......
After all, the syrup and chocolate in it are all melted at high temperatures, and Liu Pleiades needs to let them cool and solidify again.
What made the audience hotly discuss was that on the tray in Liu Pleiaus's hands, among the five small plates, each of which had a few small red biscuits "floating"!
Yes, although the float is not high, and it is only a thin layer, but in the close-up of the broadcast screen, the small biscuits do not look like they have any contact with the plate.
Not only the audience, but among the five judges, except for Senzaemon, who had already had some guesses, the other four people also widened their eyes, and even Senzaemon was not completely unmoved.
Even when Liu Pleiades put the small disc in front of the five judges, they couldn't see the trick for the first time......
"How is this done? Why do cookies float on a plate? Maba Lovev asked.
However, his movements were always faster than his words, and at the same time as he raised doubts, he had already reached for a few "biscuits" on the plate.
However, just as he was about to touch it, he found that his fingers had touched something before they could touch the "cookie".
"Huh? It's ......," said Baba Love, picking up the dessert from his plate.
After he picked it up, both the other judges and the audience who saw this scene on the big screen understood what was going on!
It turned out that it was not four small red biscuits floating out of thin air, but a round pie-shaped, completely transparent "carrier" with a diameter of about 11 or 2 centimeters and a thickness of 3 or 4 centimeters, containing four red fillings that occupied about 70% of the space of the entire carrier!
"As you can see, it's mooncakes...... My special five-kernel mooncakes! Liu Pleiades said.
Racecourse Love raised the mooncake above his head, looking at the light, this can see some outlines, this degree of transparency, is really shocking!
"'Happiness, luck, longevity, and happiness'?" Senzaemon picked up the mooncake with a transparent skin and four "small cookies" embedded inside.
Before, everyone's attention was completely attracted by the unscientific "floating", and it was only then that they had time to pay attention to the four red "small cookies" inside.
The four "small biscuits" are also round, and in the transparent moon cakes, they present the "Tian" shaped divisions.
Since this is a "moon cake", that is to say, what is in it is not a "small biscuit", but a filling?
At the same time, these four fillings are also in various forms, the outer contours are round, but the strokes built in an uneven way on the inside are the four circular seal characters, which Senzaemon recognized, which is the round seal character of the four characters of "Furoku Suki"!
Usually this kind of round seal character, now can only be seen on the window flower, ancient monument or ancient seal, some ingenious moon cakes, will also use the mold to print this round seal pattern, but Liu Pleiades's "five-kernel moon cake", but it is purely hand-kneaded, whether it is a round skin, or a complex round seal inside!
Seeing that the judges didn't move, Liu Pleiades took the initiative to remind: "Since it's a moon cake, I suggest that you don't use knives and forks, just pick it up!" ”
Only then did the judges entanglement put the "special five-kernel moon cake" in front of them to their mouths......
The mooncakes that look so perfect and look like works of art that the judges have a feeling that they can't bear to swallow.
In the end, it was the "Demon Eater" Senzaemon who was the first to take a bite of the mooncake!
The other four judges, who learned from this example, also tasted it one after another......
"Ahh This stuffing is ......"
"Sesame flakes?"
"Banana peanut butter toast?"
"Shredded coconut almonds?"
"Chocolate truffle walnuts?"
The four of them actually said four answers, looked at each other, and once again focused on the mooncake in their hands!
With the tongues of the four of them, it is impossible for such a big error! Then the only possibility is that there are four kinds of fillings for this moon cake......
From the very beginning, Senzaemon tried each of the four fillings, and they were in the order of "Fukuro Suki".
After the entrance of the word "Fu", the upper part of the outer robe of Senzaemon has already collapsed by half......
After the entrance of the word "Lu", the upper part of the robe falls off completely......
After the entrance of the word "Shou", Senzaemon's long white hair seemed to be a little more unkempt......
After the entrance of the word "Xi", the commander-in-chief's beard and hair have become like a lion's mane!
"That's, that's ......"
"That's right! A ...... that is one step closer than 'tears apart'"
"Furious! Only when you taste the must-kill dishes of the Ten Masterpieces, will you have a beard and anger! ”
Exclamations from the audience continued to echo.
In the face of this scene, Liu Pleiades was not surprised, after all, the filling of this "five-kernel mooncake" was already a one-time recipe of "shadowless noodles" when he used the "shadowless noodles" when he used the test between Lu and Mila, and used the shadowless way to construct a "shadowless skin" that is not only transparent in appearance, but also has a strong taste tolerance!
The four fillings are also selected from countless nut desserts, and after being modified as fillings, they are wrapped in red, slightly tomato acid and slightly bitter peach kernel powder, so as to avoid the sharp texture and taste of the "filling" directly.
These alone have already made this "special five-kernel mooncake" have the level of a special five-star, and Liu Pleiades's plan at the beginning is also enough to reach this level......
But what Senzaemon said to him yesterday made Liu Pleiades change his mind halfway, and used a "kitchen heart prototype" when cooking, although it was not a real kitchen heart, and it could not be infused with any will, but it greatly improved Liu Pleiades's concentration, and forcibly pulled the "special five-kernel moon cake" to the point of touching the tiger-level threshold!
The so-called "Ten Masterpieces of Must-Kill Dishes", in fact, most of them cannot reach this height, and the commander-in-chief's "hair beard is angry", mainly because he feels the concentration behind the cooking.
Anyone's nirvana dishes, in fact, are bound to be "focused" when cooking, but the students who usually have "nirvana dishes" are already at the level of ten masters, so they give everyone this illusion......
The so-called "nirvana dish" is actually the introduction to the "prototype of the kitchen", and as a "nirvana dish", the cooking is bound to be the result of extraordinary performance when the chef's "concentration" is extremely high!
When there is a "nirvana dish", it means that the chef has touched the edge of the "prototype of the kitchen", and when he can exert the concentration of the "nirvana dish" in any kind of cooking, it means that the "prototype of the kitchen" has been fully formed, and enough "will" is needed to go further...... That is, to make the kitchen heart prototype and completely transform into the kitchen heart. (To be continued.) )
