Yang Huairen smiled, looking at the people around him as curiously as Juntaro the little dog, waiting for his answer. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

He picked up a piece of tuna belly and showed it to everyone and said, "You are already a chef with good knife skills, and I was very surprised by the selection of materials this time."

It's just that you forget that the most fundamental part of cooking is the best ingredients, and it must be processed according to its own most unique place, so that its best taste can be displayed.

From my point of view, the bluefin tuna you chose is much rarer than the puffer fish I chose, and it stands to reason that you should have a good chance of winning.

But in this cooking competition between us, your strengths are also your weaknesses.

It is precisely because bluefin tuna is so rare that most people, including the nobles of the Great Song Dynasty, have never eaten it, let alone know its taste.

You already know how to choose the best piece of fat from the front belly of this tuna as the main ingredient of the tuna, so you can see that you have a certain level of understanding of tuna.

Judging from the whole process of "cooking" this fish in ice, you have done it perfectly. It's just that you're missing the most crucial point.

For a good bluefin tuna, different parts have different ways to eat.

Because the naked body is full of red meat and chewy, it can be added with dipping sauces, such as wasabi, which is called 'wasabi' in your Japanese dialect, which can make diners ignore the unchewable feeling of being naked because of its strong tenacity through a more stimulating taste.

As for the medium fat, you can dip it in soy sauce or light vinegar, and serve it with fragrant rice, which can best highlight its elastic taste.

The most essential big fat, without any seasoning, is itself a superb delicacy, but the big fat also has to be divided into different situations.

I believe you must know that the texture of the normal big fat fish belly, the texture of muscle and fat is separated by stripes, like the abdomen of a ring snake, so it is also called 'snake belly', this kind of big fat because the muscle fibers and fat are distributed layer by layer, so it can be eaten directly, which can give diners a layered taste and cross taste enjoyment.

If you look at this piece of fish belly, it is the best of the best, and the fat is messy and divided between the red meat, like a little falling snowflakes covering the red tiles, so it is also called 'frost fish belly'.

This kind of superb tuna has a large belly, very delicate, and has higher requirements for the chef's processing method, when thawing, if it is not thawed enough, it is easy to let the shrinking fat not completely expand and cause the loss of the original fat but not greasy, fresh but not tough taste.

If you thaw it too thoroughly and leave it for half an hour, the most delicious flavor will be lost.

The piece you cut is because it's not time to thaw, but it's self-defeating.

For the treatment of this superb frosted fish belly, it is to quickly grill it with fire, let the dots of fat overflow, seal the most essential umami, and take advantage of the slight heat in the mouth, which is the best way to eat. ”

Yang Huairen could not explain to them the effect of air oxidation on the taste of food, nor could he tell them the convenient way to make it quickly with a flame gun in later generations, so he could only explain it in terms that they could understand.

Everyone in the hall could hear God, of course, with the knowledge of the people of the moment, it may be too difficult for the ancients to understand this problem.

But regardless of whether you understand what Yang Huairen said, some people have begun to nod thoughtfully, and the people around this person also seem to be infected, and they also nodded, but they are thinking in their hearts that you are all nodding, I don't nod as if I am stupid and don't understand.

There were more and more people nodding, like a small pebble thrown on the calm water, and gradually began to spread in waves, and in an instant, everyone in the hall was nodding, and all the faces were expressions that I understood my pride, I was very smart, and I was proud.

As a result, whether it is the princes and nobles or those civil and military ministers, their views on Yang Huairen, a young cook, have invisibly undergone earth-shaking changes.

It turns out that perhaps these nobles with fine clothes and fine food only know that they are eager for delicious food, but they have never thought about why delicious things are delicious, and they have never looked at the cooks who cooked delicious food for them.

Now after listening to Yang Huairen's big truth, I feel that a little chef also needs such profound knowledge, and the production of the same delicious food also contains thought-provoking truths.

It's just that when everyone reacted and wanted to taste the dozen or so pieces of the best frost flower fish belly that Yang Huairen had just grilled with alcohol, they found that the plate was empty again.

What does it mean to get the moon first near the water? The old general had lived for most of his life, and it was the first time he had eaten such delicious fish tart, and Yang Huairen said it so magically, the old man didn't know if he could do it without shadow, so he stuffed the remaining pieces of fish tartille into his mouth in a few clicks.

But this is far more than that, the old general's not very authentic place, you can eat the rest of the fish belly, don't show it anymore, but he doesn't care about it, his mouth is full of fish belly, and he can still leave his tongue to speak, and he is also a talented old man.

"It's delicious! It's so delicious! It's so delicious! ”

Yang Huairen couldn't help but suspect important things and said it three times, this habit was popular as early as the Song Dynasty a thousand years ago.

The old man was so happy that his colleagues were so crazy that they didn't know how many knives they had killed the old man with their eyes.

Fortunately, the old general wore a drape in the court, and it can be seen on the old face that he must have been on the battlefield for a long time, and the old and strong body is rough and thick-skinned, and he doesn't care about the spears and embroidery knives of the ministers.

Empress Dowager Gao didn't eat Yang Huairen's puffer fish belly, nor did she eat the best frost flower fish belly fish belly, so naturally she hated itchy, but she was so high that she could suppress her desires and hopes in her heart and not show it.

The competition was over, the cook of the Great Song Dynasty won an overwhelming victory, she was still very satisfied, she pretended to cough, and the ministers in the hall who had lost their minds came back to their senses, straightened their clothes, and pretended to be calm from the new.

"There are always winners and losers in cooking competitions," Empress Dowager Gao said aloud, "but no matter who wins or loses, it's just a competition, and the wonderful cooking demonstrations of the two chefs in the past have amazed the palace and everyone here."

Both of them are models in the culinary industry and should be rewarded, but I wonder what kind of reward the two chefs want? ”

As soon as Yang Huairen heard that the Empress Dowager had a reward, he immediately became excited.
