Chapter 3: The God of Cooking

"This taste...... It's not ......" The soup entrance, the girl Sun Ce was stunned for a moment. There is no fishy and earthy smell as expected, and even the bitter taste peculiar to mustard greens. Some of them are the sweetness of fresh clams and the lusciousness of vegetables.

"The clams were steamed with wine and ginger, and the mustard greens were blanched in salted water, and then stewed in soup. Of course, there is some pre-work, but the process is more complicated, so I won't do it one by one. Zhu Xin explained with a smile.

"Is it so troublesome to make a soup?" It's the first time Sun Ce has heard that cooking is still so exquisite.

"After all, if you add ginger wine directly to the soup, the taste of mustard greens will also be affected, and if mustard greens are not blanched in salt water, the taste will be more bitter." Zhu Xin replied, "Of course, when I usually cook, I don't care too much about this. ”

The clams and mustard greens are processed first and then simmered together to make the soup clearer and sweeter. The taste of ginger wine will not affect the flavor of mustard greens too much.

The seasoning is only a little salt and a drop of sauce, so you can barely feel it if you don't drink it carefully.

"It's warm, it's so comfortable...... Sun Ce finished drinking the soup in the spoon, only to feel a warm stream of heat, passing through his throat from his mouth and finally into his stomach.

It's just a small spoonful, but it makes her feel warm in her stomach.

"In the end, the clams have been steamed with wine, and when they are stewed in the future, the soup will also contain a certain amount of wine, and the weather has been cold at night recently, so this alcohol can just get rid of the cold." Zhu Xin said with a smile.

This bit of alcohol, which is lower than dessert wine, can also stimulate the stomach and intestines, slightly increase the blood flow rate, and dispel the cold.

"Then it's time for the meal!" Sun Ce picked up the rice bowl and chopsticks, and then picked up a piece of oyster, the fresh oyster was soft and jelly.

It's okay to eat it directly, after all, it's fresh enough. However, most people still like dipping sauce, including Sun Ce.

She looked at the sauce and saw a small green piece of sauce on the side. She didn't know anything either, so she naturally knew that it was mustard. However, it is obviously not yellow mustard, but ground with wasabi. It is grinded very carefully, and there is no roughness of rushing.

"You've done so much in just a little time?" Sun Ce looked at Zhu Xin.

"What do you mean by that little time?" Zhu Xin retorted, "If you run a restaurant, you will be complained about if you make customers wait for so long." ”

It's not a high-end restaurant, and it's qualified to make guests wait. I remember watching some similar videos before the crossing, the reputation of the store is big enough, you have to book first to eat, the service attitude is also very casual, and even the guests who did not make a reservation went directly to scold away.

"I didn't expect you to really have two ......" Sun Ce nodded thoughtfully, and then dipped it in the sauce, and even used some mustard, and put it in his mouth.

"Hmm...... Wasabi dipped too much...... "The taste of wasabi hits the brain, simple and crude. The impact of this thing doesn't pass through the taste buds at all, at least before the taste buds feel it, it rushes directly to the brain.

What's interesting is that it comes and goes quickly. When your mouth gets used to it, you don't feel the spicy taste at all. It's as if wasabi puts all the impact at the very beginning, so the stamina is insufficient, which is the opposite of the situation of chili peppers.

"This oyster...... It's so sweet! The sweetness of the oysters was accentuated by the sauce and mustard, and Sun Ce only felt that it was the first time he had eaten such sweet oysters.

"Right?" Zhu Xin said with a smile that fresh seafood should give full play to its deliciousness, only stewed soup and sashimi, even steamed, can not be fully brought into play. Of course, it is safer to steam, after all, you have to be careful of parasites.

If you just boil the soup, the umami is actually in the soup, so you can't enjoy the taste of the seafood or the river fresh itself. Therefore, for the sake of taste, I had to compromise on umami, steaming became the first choice, and then it was boiled.

In this case...... Sun Ce naturally won't let go of other seafood, from yellowtail to sea bream, and then to octopus, each of which tastes very good, just before eating the pufferfish, he asked, "Anyway, can you handle the pufferfish?" ”

"I've eaten it myself, and if there's a problem, I'm down now." Zhu Xin replied affirmatively, it seems that there is this rule in later generations, the chef who cooks the puffer fish must eat it first, and he follows this principle.

In fact, if you want to say that it is delicious, it must be the skin of puffer fish and the liver of puffer fish, which are twice as fresh as puffer fish meat.

Just as poisonous mushrooms are twice as fresh as normal mushrooms, they are so delicious that they have to create toxins to preserve themselves, otherwise they would have gone extinct. Having said that, there is no need to fight for the ultimate umami.

"I'll believe you once......" Sun Ce looked at Zhu Xin, then dipped the puffer fish meat in the dipping sauce and ate it. After a while, he became excited: "Hmm! Uh-huh!! Uh-huh!! ”

"Can I eat something before I speak?" Zhu Xin complained.

(chewing, chewing...... Chew...... Deglutition...... )

"This puffer fish is so fresh and tastes good!" Sun Ce said excitedly.

"Of course, I don't look at whose knife is the cutter!" Zhu Xin said with a smile. Steamed puffer fish, the meat quality depends on the heat, either firm and slightly woody, or tender and chewy.

In the case of the mawli, the flexibility of the meat is well preserved, and the umami has not deteriorated, and the taste is of course the best after being enhanced by soy sauce and wasabi.

"But isn't it the initial professional skill of the chef department?" Sun Ce ruthlessly pierced Zhu Xin.

"If the skill level is low, do you think there will be this level?" Zhu Xin, who was exposed, quibbled that people and people's physiques are different, and the professional skills of chefs and cooks are also divided into different levels.

In the beginning, everyone is a white skill, but as the number of cooking increases, the understanding of cooking improves, and naturally it will gradually upgrade. Of course, the skill cap of different levels of the chef profession also varies.

For example, the lowest-level 'Fire Man' can only use the initial skills of the profession in this life, and the skill level cannot enter the blue.

"Then too, I saw it during the day, and your skills are currently at the green level." Sun Ce recalled it, and suddenly suddenly, but then teased, "It's a pity that it's only light green, and it needs to be improved......"

Zhu Xin didn't bother to complain about this, he actually wanted to tell Sun Ce that this package was purple level. White, green, blue and purple, compared with the dishes served out during the day, directly increased by two levels.

"Don't be angry...... Green is already very good......" Seeing that Zhu Xin didn't speak, Sun Ce hurriedly comforted, "I'll continue to eat, keep eating!" ”

In fact, every time I eat fish tart, the aftertaste in my mouth can be completely a bite of rice. The taste of the rice is relatively average, after all, it is obtained from steaming leftovers, but it is still fluffy enough.

It's just that whether it's clam soup or fish tart, the calories themselves are insufficient, so it's fine if it's just a side dish. If it is used as a set meal, it is estimated that it will be really difficult to fill your stomach without rice.

"Since you've already eaten half of it......" Sun Ce looked at the bowl, where he ate one-third of the rice and half of the seafood. Simply follow Zhu Xin's words, put some sauce into a bowl, put in some minced perilla, and then stir well with chopsticks.

Then put down the chopsticks, pick up a piece of octopus tartrum, wrapped in rice, and put it in your mouth. The flavor of the sauce penetrates well into the rice, and sure enough, the sauce is not very salty, and the bibimbap tastes just right.

Salty and delicious, the sauce occupies a very important position in it, even if it is eaten directly with bibimbap. It's rare that he didn't steal the limelight of rice and fish tart, as if a loyal courtier was silently contributing on the side.

"Where can I buy this sauce?" Sun Ce asked curiously.

"Not for sale!" Zhu Xin replied, "Because it was brewed by myself." ”

"Do you have a second career?" Sun Ce tilted his head, after all, such a high-quality soy sauce is generally thought to be brewed through the 'brewing' technique.

"Unfortunately, no!" Zhu Xin replied, "Also, don't underestimate my craftsmanship!" Sauce, as long as you understand the mysteries, you can also make a very good finished product. ”

After all, the sauce handed down by this family is the grandfather's generation, and it took more than 50 years to perfect the recipe from the father's generation.

"Then you're really good......" Sun Ce muttered for a moment, and then began to enter the acceleration state.

It's the first time I eat fish rice bowls, but this way of eating is really novel, mainly because Zhu Xin's craftsmanship is really good. Strictly speaking, this thing still depends on the knife work, and then the sauce. It's not very technical, but it's so delicious that you can't stop it!

Take a few bites of rice, then pick up the bowl and take a sip of the soup, which is dispelled by the cold feeling of the fresh food. The faint alcohol in the soup accelerates the flow of blood in the body, so the body temperature also rises, and the warmth is very comfortable.

Then I remembered that there were still pickled cucumbers that I hadn't eaten yet, so I picked up a piece and put it in my mouth. The sour taste is not very prominent, or this sour taste is very refreshing! After all, mixing the sauce into the rice, eating a few bites is still a little greasy, and at this time, the pickled cucumber just removes this feeling, and even arouses the appetite very well.

The seafood rice bowl is the general who charges into battle, and the clam soup is the most intimate lieutenant. Pickled cucumbers are heavy and inconspicuous, but they can ensure that the army can go further. This is not a package, the mysteries of the army are contained in it!

So in the depths of Sun Ce's mind, a powerful army began to be formed, rushing towards the depths of her soul.

"This offensive ...... It's too strong! As soon as Sun Ce raised his head, his eyes began to become blurred, "...... It's going to be crushed! ”

I have to say that her expression and behavior at this moment, from Zhu Xin's point of view, are very bad.

What no one knows is that at this moment, her 'Admiral' profession, the special energy it contains, has become more condensed. The existing class skills, below the purple level, have been upgraded by one level.

Unfortunately, temporary...... Zhu Xin joked that only he knew what the dish he served out meant.

The soul-pounding delicacy will temporarily raise his existing professional skills to a higher level, and as his cooking skills continue to improve, the level of improvement may be even higher. Even a slight increase in the probability of a career breakthrough, as well as a permanent increase in skill level.

However, this impact that goes straight to the soul cannot be borne by professionals, and ordinary people are estimated to really 'die happily'. After seeing a few diners and revealing the ugliness of the spirit of aphrodisiacs, he tried not to serve ordinary people too high-end food.

Diners still think that Zhu Xin is just a 'chef'. But no one knows that he is actually a 'kitchen god'!

………………………… Dividing line ........................

World Facts:

In the common sense of people in this world, occupations are divided into four levels: inferior, intermediate, superior, and top.

Sun Ce's 'general' profession is a 'general' and a professional superior. The three levels are: general, general, and general.

Almost everyone believes that above the general, there is the overlord/emperor, which belongs to the top of the profession.

On the protagonist, however, a fifth-level profession appears. From low to high, they are: Flameman, Chef, Chef, Chef and Chef.

Obviously, people in this world don't know very much about the limits of their careers...... Is it deliberately concealed, or is the protagonist plug-in too big......
