Chapter 111: Maturation

I saw Xia Yan drain the juice produced during the "aging" process of the meat slices, then cleaned it slightly, and then placed it on a plate.

The camera locks on the transparently colored slice of meat he is placing on his plate.

"Ahemβ€”"

The female master of ceremonies saw Xia Yan turn her head and gestured to Jingpu Jiushang of the Halberd Administration Bureau in the audience, as if there was still something missing.

This scene fell on the camera, making the spectators stunned.

Didn't Director Prospect Pu already ask if everything was complete?

Including Jingpu Jiushang himself, he was at a loss for two or three seconds.

Is there anything else missing......

Something that the halberd eaters have given them to keep and care for in advance......

Until I saw Xia Yan leaning over and taking out a large ice cube that had not yet melted from a cold box that had been emptied.

Under the stage lights, this piece of ice sparkles.

Jingpu Jiushang was still suddenly, and finally remembered one thing, in fact, it was just yesterday, Xia Yan and Ruishan had just left the commander-in-chief's office building on the front foot, and they received a work notice from the Far Moon Eclipse Bureau on the back foot, so the director also personally visited the Polestar Liao, took the pen and paper seriously, and recorded the requirements of the halberd players.

At that time, Xia Yan said this to him, and it seemed quite relaxed:

"I won't bother you with these ingredients, I'll bring my own."

"It's the same with the kitchenware, no special requirements."

"You just follow the usual practice and prepare basic kitchen supplies such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar for me to ensure that there are no problems...... Oh, by the way, there is still a special request. ”

"Well, can you bring me a big piece of ice on time when the show starts tomorrow night? It's good to be square. ”

As he spoke, he also gestured in front of Jingpu Jiushang.

"It doesn't have to be too big, half a meter square."

"It's too big to bear, after all, the halberd has a strict time limit, and if you indulge in the elaborate crafting, it's easy to overtime, so it's too dangerous, it's like death......"

Keipu Hisama, who remembered this incident, and Nagi Senzaemon, who was the chief judge on the judge's seat, looked at each other and hurried away.

Xia Yan was not in a hurry at all.

The necessary preparation props have not arrived, and the rush to deal with this pile of ingredients is tantamount to consuming the golden delicious time of the ingredients.

Although his "Luohan Crystal Chop" can lock in that deliciousness to a certain extent, but the occasion is different, he is so cautious before opening the halberd, and if he makes a mistake with his frizzy head when he plays on the spot, he will probably knock his head crooked afterwards.

To know.

It's a rare opportunity to try that bold idea in your mind......

The best time!

"If I can successfully open the door of light through restoration and imitation, the dishes and dishes I will finally present ......"

Thinking of this, Xia Yan almost couldn't suppress the surging qi and blood, so he wanted to open the kitchenware box, take out the "pseudo-weapon", the fierce bright guy, and then buried his head and hard.

But he managed to kill the impulse with reason.

There can be no rush.

Be cautious!

Be sure to be a serious chef today!!

Xia Yan repeated repeatedly, so the female emcee who called a few times and didn't hear him answer, turned to the inside of the bar to interview him, and heard the contestant's chattering whisper.

The older woman in the professional skirt almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

She was very clever and turned off the microphone switch in time, otherwise, Xia Yanyi's whispers of self-psychological suggestion would be broadcast by the loudspeaker throughout the audience, but I am afraid that the character will collapse, and I am afraid that the cool two-year vitality of mystery and legend will cease to exist.

There was a gentle push on the shoulder.

A dignified and beautiful face, very close, Xia Yan took a step back without a trace, and looked at the hostess with a smile in her eyes, and easily resolved the embarrassment that had just formed by listening to the other party with just one sentence:

"Contestant Xia Yan, you seem to be very good at 'maturation'?"

This sentence was said with the microphone turned on, leading the audience to listen with their ears open.

"I'm not good at it, I'm just going to give it a try and see if 'aging' can make these pieces of squid meat taste to the next level."

I only heard the sound of a squid between the 'moon passes'.

The various types of sashimi made by squid are not an uncommon dish for the people of the island country.

And if you want to say that in the squid sashimi dishes, I am afraid that it is the kind of freshly killed and eaten, with the tentacles of the squid still alive in the mouth, that is called the real eating of all the fresh.

"Is this the carcass of a squid, the flesh of a body part? It's huge! The hostess pointed to the uncut slices of transparent meat on the plate.

saw Xia Yan shaking his head.

"It's not flesh."

"It's a squid...... Ear! ”

Ha?!

The hostess was really taken aback, that expression was not a play, she was really shocked by the appearance of such a big squid ear.

"The ears of the squid are actually the fins of the squid."

"Such a big 'fin', it can be seen that the body is a super big guy!" Older women marveled.

Hearing this, Xia Yan glanced at her unexpectedly, it seems that on a halberd of such a specification, he can stand here as the master of ceremonies and host, and there is really no vase.

A curious voice came from the judges' seat:

"What kind of squid is this? Well, it's not suitable for "dancing food" and "living", but needs to be matured, let me think about it. ”

"Dance Food" and "Living".

In essence, they are all dishes that pay attention to freshly killed and eaten.

In particular, the food in the mouth can move, and this kind of cooking can be said to have a soul.

It was Kojiro Shinomiya who was saying:

"First of all, exclude 'summer squid', which is the lowest level of squid ingredients, it is so popular that every teppanyaki restaurant can eat it!"

"Excluding the 'mud squid', it doesn't need to be aged to improve the taste."

"In terms of deliciousness alone, this is a well-deserved king of squid, countless sushi masters, tempura masters, and think that only such super ingredients are worthy of their god-level skills......"

Just when Xia Yan waved his hand to interrupt Kojiro Shinomiya, about to tell him the answer and let him stop talking there.

Thundered.

A cart was pushed out of the aisle by the school's support staff.

Jingpu Jiushang of the Food Halberd Bureau followed the car all the way to the front of Xia Yan's open kitchen: "It was just transported from the freezer, so you don't have to worry about melting it in a short time." ”

It's not a hot summer, but in April in Tokyo, the climate is still relatively cold, and now it's close to the night, and the temperature is about 10 degrees Celsius.

"Here, icebreaker."

Leaving the tool bag, Jingpu Jiushang went down.

Ding-bell!

Not surprisingly, Xia Yan in the next shot took a tool and took the big ice cube that had been moved to the kitchen counter seriously, and chiseled up the ice sculpture.

Bursts of snow flew out.

Under the pillar of light, the boy and the flawless white ice cube in front of him seemed to be shining with a different kind of brilliance.

"What is he doing?!"

But too many people felt unbelievable that he ignored the large number of ingredients and went to dig the ice cubes first.

Erina Nagikiri listens to the chisel sound that echoes over the radio.

Let's take a look at the situation of others, Ruiyama Ezuya.

This ninth 'alchemist', his cuisine, his handling, seems to be very three-dimensional at a glance.
