In the Yamato Restaurant, Iijima is seriously preparing for the meal.

After he took out the mysterious ingredient, he took out a Japanese-style kitchen knife and began to carefully scrape off the thin slices from the mysterious ingredient, his movements were very fast, very fine, and soon, the board was covered with the kind of flakes like snowflakes.

A cooker next to him had already put a pot on the stove, and after Iijima had processed the mysterious ingredients, he put the flakes into a bowl and poured some tea to soak the mysterious ingredients.

Iijima continued to cook the other ingredients, such as green onions cut into two-inch long sections, radishes cut into even semicircles, onions, and kelp, which were fed into the pot next to them.

Iijima Mako's speed is well controlled, and when all the ingredients are sent into the pot, the water in the pot boils.

Iijima also dripped some soy sauce, salt and other condiments into the pot.

The aroma of the various ingredients being cooked has spread in all directions, forming a dark brown color.

After boiling for about five minutes, Iijima poured the mysterious dish soaked in the bowl into the pot and stirred gently.

About another three minutes or so passed.

Iijima stopped the fire, which meant that his dish was finished.

The process is simple, so simple that everyone feels like they can learn it.

But in fact, many people who have seen Iijima Yanhao's cooking process have tried to make it again after returning to it, but the soup has been difficult to swallow - the taste is not because the mysterious ingredient is missing, but because the taste is not right at all.

Iijima is a simple and insipid process, but he is not bad at controlling time, and his cooking skills are definitely at the top level.

Soon two bowls of slightly dark, slightly thick soup were placed in front of Ye Chui and Lin Wei, and Iijima Mayan smiled and sat down with a gesture to please taste.

Lin Wei is the least resistant to food, and this soup exudes a rich fragrance. She was a little impatient, and immediately picked up a delicate little soup spoon, scooped a spoonful, and put the soup in her mouth after it cooled a little.

The name of this soup is translated from Japanese into Huaxia and is called kombu dashi.

It's a very simple name, but although the name has kelp in it, the theme of this dish is undoubtedly the strange ingredients that look like wood but not wood, and stone instead of stone.

The soup made from vegetables such as radish and shallots may indeed have an outstanding taste, but it lacks a delicate texture.

"Ye Shui, this soup is really delicious." Lin Wei quickly said to Ye Chui. She couldn't help frowning again, today she followed Ye Chu to this Yamato Cuisine Clock, in fact, she came to smash the field, and wanted to crack the mystery of the other party's cooking, so she was now a little worried about whether Ye Chu could taste what the most important mysterious ingredient of this soup was.

"Mr. Ye, please taste it."

Iijima said with a confident smile to Hata, believing that this mysterious ingredient Hataru must not know what it was.

Because...... Even he had no idea what this thing was!

That's right, he had no idea what this mysterious ingredient was!

Their Iijima family is a gastronomic family, but it has declined in the vegetarian movement. Many of the unique and secret recipes had been lost, and it wasn't until the end of the vegetarian movement that the two brothers learned to cook under a master chef. Fame grew.

Later, when the two returned to their ancestral home to clean the ancestral house, they found three boxes of mysterious things in a basement in Kaizhong, which looked like some kind of jade. But the mass was noticeably light, and it didn't look like any kind of wood, which had been sitting quietly in the Chamber of Secrets for more than eighty years. But because of the good sealing, these things don't seem to break down even after a long time.

The two of them couldn't recognize what it was, and took it to study and confirm that the composition of this thing was organic and non-toxic, but it was not anything valuable, and the two were disappointed.

However, an accident caused Iijima to put this kind of thing into the pot, and after boiling it, the soup gave off a charming aroma.

Iijima Makoshi suddenly understood that this kind of thing was an ancestral ingredient.

Then he developed the practice of removing this kelp soup.

It's just that there are only three boxes of mysterious ingredients handed down from the ancestors, which are very precious, and he has always been reluctant to use them, until now, in order to avenge his brother and regain the glory of the Iijima family, he opened Yamato cuisine in the food city, and used this mysterious ingredient as a promotional means, wanting to surpass Ye Tuo in one fell swoop.

The ingredients of the mystery that even he didn't know, how could Ye Chui know?

The face and reputation that my brother lost, he will definitely get it back.

"That's not how this is eaten."

Ye Zhuo suddenly spoke.

He looked at the soup containing various vegetables in the bowl and said with some regret.

"You...... What did you say? Iijima Mayan was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Ye Chui meant by these words.

Ye Tuo looked at Iijima Mayan a little strangely: "I said that this is not how to eat this dry festival." He pointed to the mysteries that were solemnly placed in the box by Iijima Masako, and continued, "If this kind of thing is called Huaxia in Japanese, it is called Honkutsu. ”

"......" Iijima Mayan was completely stunned there, this dry festival? This ancestral secret ingredient is called the Honkutsu? How does leaf lobe know? What exactly is this dry festival?

Everyone around let out a burst of exclamation at the same time, and Ye Hang ...... Really recognize this mysterious ingredient?

But the name Benkure is so strange.

Lin Wei looked at Ye Zhuo with sparkling eyes: "What is this dry festival?" ”

This is also a concern for everyone.

Iijima Mayan's face showed a little excited expression for a moment, he suddenly came out from behind the counter, walked in front of Ye Trai, bowed hard at 90 degrees, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Mr. Ye Trai, please tell me what this dry festival is!?" ”

Ye Hang: "......"

I'll go, didn't you take this thing out? Didn't you know what it really was?

Everyone else was puzzled.

"I found this ingredient from the basement of my ancestral house, they have been stored in the basement for more than eighty years, and I found that they can be used to cook, but have no idea what this thing is...... Mr. Ye Chui, if you can tell me, I am very grateful to you! ”

"Forehead ......"

Ye Chui didn't expect this to happen, and ...... This book has been on the table for eighty years...... Although this dried food can be stored for a long time, after eighty years, this thing can still be eaten?

Everyone looked at Ye Chui curiously, full of curiosity about the answer that Ye Chui was about to say.

"Okay...... Ye Hang out and rubbed his nose, and continued, "Ben Kujie...... Actually, it's cod. ”

"Cod!?" This answer surprised everyone, this kind of thing looks like cod there?

"This ingredient is also called bonito, and it is made by special treatment of cod." Ye continued to explain, "This kind of thing must have been very popular in Japan before the vegan movement...... I didn't expect that even the Japanese themselves don't know each other anymore. ”

"Mr. Ye Chui!" Iijima's voice became even more excited, "Excuse me, do you know how to make this dry festival?" ”

"What about this...... Ye Chu thought for a moment, "I have a general understanding." ”

The way of making this dry festival is unique to Japan, but there are similar ingredients in China, such as bonito made from dried cod, and the previous Hataru studied the practice of bonito, so I still know the general process.

Iijima Makoko originally opened Yamato Cuisine here in the Food City, just to deliberately find fault with Ye Tsui, but now his goal has completely changed, he said to Ye Tsui with a respectful face: "Please Mr. Ye Tsui teach me how to make this dry festival, this is very important to me, I promise Mr., I will turn off Yamato Cuisine after that!" ”

"Well, just close the restaurant or something." Ye Chui hurriedly said, the goal of the construction of the Huaxia Food City is not to make the Huaxia cuisine family big, but to accommodate all kinds of food in the world, the Japanese cuisine in the entire food city is probably this one, of course Ye Chui doesn't want it to be closed like this, but the production method of this dry festival Ye Chui can't give it to Iijima Zhenyan in vain.

What's more, although this world does not have any irresolvable hatred for Japan because of the vegetarian movement, for Ye Chui, he still has a little knot in his heart......

After thinking about it seriously, Ye Chu's heart suddenly moved, and he smiled and said to Iijima Mako: "Honkusetsu was originally an indispensable thing in Japanese cuisine, and in the soup, one of the most important dishes in Japan, honkutsu is the most important, and I can tell Mr. Iijima how to make this Kusei, but I hope that Mr. Iijima can join my Manchurian all-you-can-eat enterprise in the form of a franchise...... In other words, I'm going to take a stake in your Yamato Ryori. ”

Iijima Mayan was slightly stunned when he heard Ye Trai's words, but thinking of the magic of this dry festival, he still quickly made up his mind: "Okay, I promise you, Mr. Ye Trai...... However, I would like to ask Mr. Hatau to make this dry knot and prove that there is no mistake in your method of making it. ”

"That's easy to say." Ye Chui stood up with a smile and patted Lin Wei on the shoulder, "Wait a few days, I will come back to you with this dry festival, and when the time comes, we should be able to talk about the matter of buying shares." ”

The production process of this dry festival is very troublesome, and it is roughly estimated that it should be able to be made in five or six days, right? (To be continued......)

PS: Ps: This dry festival is also known as the bonito festival, which has appeared in many Japanese dramas, such as the last two episodes of Cooking Senhime, and the episode of cat rice in the late-night cafeteria, if you are interested, you can go and see it~~~ After that, I will write about the cat rice This kind of food ha~~~~
