Chapter 719: Appetizers

With the emergence of the flower fairy, the camp of the Absolute Taste Crown has gradually grown, and the one who should fight the Supreme Taste is Li Wenfei, a genius who is ranked eleventh on the cooking list and is proficient in seafood cooking.

Dai Zangqing sent the Wei Supreme forward to fight, and congratulated: "Come on." ”

Wei Supreme glanced back at Dai Zangqing, and his heart was somewhat unpleasant, this battle can be said to be very important. Because the second main menu showdown is Dai Zangqing against Dai Zangkong, and Dai Zangkong is the fourth master on the cooking list, although I don't know what tricks Dai Zangqing has left, but as far as the current situation is concerned, Dai Zangqing may only be able to tie with Dai Zangkong at most.

And the disparity in the strength of the desserts in the final battle is self-evident, one is the top ten dessert chef flower fairies on the cooking list, and the other is a new student who has just entered the inner courtyard and is at a loss, almost the difference between a hungry wolf and a lamb.

Therefore, the battle of the Taste Supreme is extremely important, and it must be won no matter what.

Taking a deep breath, Wei Supreme wiped the sweat on his forehead, his opponent is Li Wenfei, although this person looks like Si Wenwen, but his strength is amazing, the reason why he succumbed to the top ten of the cooking list is because he has never had the opportunity to find someone to start, but in terms of strength, he is definitely among the top ranks.

This battle was originally evenly matched, but the opponent was also familiar with his own recipe, and the taste supreme couldn't help frowning.

Li Wenfei smiled at Wei Supreme, nodded lightly and said gently, "Please advise." ”

Wei Supreme did not answer, but silently walked onto his cooking table. At this time, the pressure on his body was so great that it already made him a little nervous.

Appetizers, also known as appetizers, are appetizers and pass the time for guests before the main course is served, and although the portion is not large, it must be made very carefully to stimulate the diners and thus open the appetite of the diners, so it has an indispensable and important position in Western cuisine.

The host introduced: "Savoring food is a very leisurely and elegant enjoyment. No matter how impatient people are, they will slow down when enjoying Western food. Even if you are hungry, you can't help it, you have to taste the appetizer before you are served the main food. It is an appetizer before the first course or main course in Western cuisine, and is characterized by a small number of dishes and a fresh taste. The color is bright. It often has a sour and salty taste. Suitable for all kinds of people and appetizing, hopefully the two of you can make a delicious appetizer, so now. Halberd begins! ”

With the host's order, Li Wenfei immediately operated quickly, but at this time, the taste supreme was motionless!

"What's going on? Why hasn't that guy started yet? ”

Seeing that Wei Supreme had no intention of preparing to start cooking, the audience in the audience began to talk about it. After all, this is a time-limited game, and every minute and second is precious, and wasting time by doing nothing like this is undoubtedly committing suicide.

But in the face of Wei Supreme's abnormal behavior, Dai Zangqing and Dai Zangkong's eyes both showed the same expression, that is, approval.

The reason why Wei Supreme stopped was because the food he wanted to cook had already been known by the enemy, and because of the flower fairy, Li Wenfei must have known at this time that what Wei Supreme wanted to cook was a cocktail cup!

The so-called cocktail cup is a classic of Western appetizers and cold dishes, usually with a transparent cocktail glass with vegetables such as shredded lettuce on the bottom, put in prawns, chicken or other meats, and then drizzled with olive oil, salad dressing, Thousand Island juice and other sauces to taste, and finally garnished with herbs, lemon, etc.

The toppings can be changed as you like, making it an amazing dish with a variety of flavors and shapes.

After knowing the opponent's cuisine, Li Wenfei will definitely make a target on this, so Wei Supreme does not plan to make a move first, but waits and sees what Li Wenfei is going to do, so as to find an opportunity to fight back.

Knowing that he can't do it, Wei Supreme won't do it, Li Wenfei must have prepared many traps for him, if he still fights with the same cocktail cup recipe, there is only one end, and that is failure.

But defeat is a result that he absolutely cannot tolerate, and this battle must be won, so it is necessary to wait and watch at this time.

Seeing that Wei Supreme was still able to maintain his composure at such a critical juncture, even Li Wenfei, who was an opponent, still raised his head and praised: "It is worthy of being the top ten masters on the cooking list, and this calm and unhurried courage is really admirable." ”

Wei Supreme didn't say a word, carefully observing Li Wenfei's movements, he found that what Li Wenfei took out at this time was ham, and it was also the treasure of ham, Italian raw ham!

If you go to an Italian restaurant, you will be treated to a unique appetizer with a sweet cantaloupe and a savoury aroma of Parmesan ham, which is its name.

It can be used in salads, with a thin slice of raw ham on top of fresh, sweet fruit slices, especially with cantaloupe, which is absolutely delicious. The ham is salty, while the cantaloupe is sweet, and it will sound a bit strange when paired. Actually, the sweetness of the cantaloupe can neutralize the saltiness of the ham. It is a delicious appetizer and is famous all over the world. Ham can also be cooked, and people in northern Italy used to use ham to make dumpling fillings. People in the central part of the country use it to cook it with vegetables.

The history of ham making in Italy dates back thousands of years to the Roman period. Italians pride themselves on their ham craftsmanship, and Parma ham is the epitome of high-quality ham. One of the favourite dishes of northern and central Italy is the salted and air-dried raw ham. There is a saying in Italy that people who don't like to eat ham are not Italians.

Ham is not only found on the dinner table of ordinary families, but can also be found at Italian state dinners, where the figure of Parma melon ham has never been lost.

Parma ham can only be made from purebred or crossbred traditional breeds of large white and landrace pigs, which have been improved according to the pedigree of Italian domestic animals, and are recognizable by the fact that they are tender red in color, like pink roses, with even fat distribution, and the softest of all hams, which is very easy to identify.

Seeing a flash of shock in Wei Supreme's eyes, Li Wenfei could also understand that Wei Supreme must have also discovered the origin of this ham, so he also introduced unabashedly: "This is my own pickled Parma ham, which has a stronger taste than the ham imported from Italy, and it took me five years to marinate him!" ”

Authentic Italian restaurants will serve Parma ham, and in Italy, whether or not you can provide high-quality Parma ham has almost become the standard for evaluating the quality of the restaurant. The demand for Parma ham in Italy is also very urgent, and many hams can only barely reach maturity and are sold immediately, but the longer the ham process, the stronger the flavor.

Li Wenfei was boastful, obviously cherishing his Parma ham very much, and said: "Salt can prevent the meat from turning gray, not looking bright, prevent fat from spoiling, inhibit the production of bacteria, use good sea salt to smear repeatedly, wash, smear, clean, and after spending a whole week, hang the ham to dry." Store at a warm temperature until all the moisture in the meat has evaporated, then place it in a low temperature. Due to the different temperatures and the size of the ham, the drying time is as short as half a year to a year before it can be matured, but ripening does not mean the extreme, in order to make this Parma ham fully develop its deliciousness, I spent five years! ”

The value of this Parma ham can no longer be measured by money, this priceless treasure has evolved into a cultural treasure, as an ingredient, it sets off more complex emotions in it.

I didn't expect Li Wenfei to use such valuable ingredients for this halberd, and Wei Supreme was also taken aback.

Dai Zangqing frowned tightly, Li Wenfei was willing to do this for the sake of the Absolute Crown, and contributed the Parma ham that he had marinated for five years, which shows that Dai Zangkong also has his own set of methods in employing people and knowing people.

To be able to make his subordinates willingly contribute this priceless treasure, Dai Zangkong is also a talent.

Li Wenfei took out a kitchen knife shaped like a half-moon, which is an Italian knife that specializes in slicing Parma ham, which can cut a very beautiful cross-section.

Cutting off a slice of Parma ham with skillful skill, Li Wenfei said intoxicatedly: "In order to simulate the environment of the Italian Visilian Sea, I spent a lot of money to graft many saplings in the inner courtyard in front of me, so that the wind blows through the pine and olive trees and becomes gentle, and the Apennine Mountains become dry, and it is full of the smell of chestnut trees, and in the whole process of drying the Parma ham, it gives a unique sweet aroma." ”

At this time, as a judge, Elder Kun of the five elders of the sun and moon Lang Qiankun also couldn't bear it, he went to Italy to study when he was young, and he has unforgettable emotions for this kind of Parma ham, he knows that the best Parma ham must be at least 9 kilograms or more, the color is dark red, there is a sense of perspective after slicing, the fat with marble texture smells like aged meat and smoke, the entrance taste is salty and fragrant, the fat can be dissolved in the mouth, and there is an aftertaste.

At this time, the Parma ham that Li Wenfei showed was obviously in this ranks, and it was the best!

Facing the weapon used by Li Wenfei, although Wei Supreme felt a sense of oppression hit him instantly, he smiled calmly and calmly: "Since this is the case, I have the bottom in my heart." (To be continued......)
