Chapter 51: Looking Up at the Stars
Between the sky and the moon, in the enthusiastic cheers of the male audience who were about to explode the roof, the emcee Rei Kawashima appeared in the middle of the arena on the elevator and said excitedly, "Hello everyone, everyone! After 10 long days of waiting, tonight! The Fall Trials Finals have finally begun! Tonight's judges are different, they are Lord Commander-in-Chief, Senior Dojima Gin, and Lady Nagi Le Leona! Players are invited to enter!! ”。 Among the four passages in the southeast, northwest and northwest, Jiang Yunfeng, Hayama Ryo, Kurokiba Ryo, and Kohei Chuangzhen walked to the corresponding cooking area, waiting for the commander to announce the start of the game.
Nagi Senzaemon got up and walked to the front of the stage, and the microphone handed by Rei Kawashima shouted in a hearty voice, "Open the patio!" The crane sounded, and the top between the sky and the moon slowly moved to both sides, and the lights in the arena became dim, and the moonlight poured down from the patio to illuminate the real arena. The sound of the crane stopped, the roof was fully opened, and Nagi Senzaemon pointed to the half-exposed moon in the patio and said, "This is the true face of the sky and the moon!" Tonight's finals time is the end of the moon disappearing on the other side of the roof, and the theme must have been known to everyone, so the old man will not say more, and now the cooking will begin!! ”
Ryo Hayama and Ryo Kurokiba took out fresh saury from their respective incubators at the same time, the tight body of the fish, the full color, like a sharp sword out of the sheath. But Xingping Chuangzhen took out a 'blunt sword' wrapped in wheat bran, and in the sigh of the audience, Jiang Yunfeng also took out the saury cut and soaked in the water. "Two 'sharp blades' against one 'blunt knife' are already at a disadvantage, but this is good, the other one in Pole Star Liao actually took out a basin of 'broken swords', and the ferocity is more auspicious." Nagiri Alice, who was standing behind her mother, covered her mouth and exclaimed. Erina Nagikiri also tugged at the corners of her clothes, worried. Dojima Silver looked at the two eldest ladies and worried, so he smiled and comforted, "The fish selected by Ryo Hayama and Ryo Kurokiba is fresh, but the saury wrapped in wheat bran by Kohei Chuangzhen is not simple, it seems that it has been matured and processed, so Jiang Yunfeng I don't understand, why should he cut it in the water, and there is fresh fish in the box, it seems that he plans to make more than one kind of dish?" Nagi Senzaemon took over the conversation with a smile, "Jiang Yunfeng's box of water for soaking saury should be salt water, and it has been soaked for at least 4 hours, hehe, Dojima, that young man wants to challenge your taste buds tonight." Dojima Silver was also woken up by the commander-in-chief, and responded with a smile, "Really?" The commander said this, I am really looking forward to it, I really want to see how he has changed in the past few months. ”
The three people who were making these various dishes were attracted by the sound of Kurokiba Ryo scissors cutting something, "Heat-resistant film? It doesn't look like the normal kind. Hayama Ryo said suspiciously, Kohei Chuangzhen said while turning over the grilled fish on the charcoal stove, "Yay~~ Doesn't the plastic film used for cooking make the food smell strange?" Jiang Yunfeng, who had already processed all the saury needed, continued, "It must have been given to him by Miss Nagi Alice, produced by Nagi International Research Institute, although I don't know if it is a high-quality product, but it is definitely not a shoddy product!" ”
"That's right!" Kurokiba wrapped the food and said, "This is developed by Miss, using polymer polymer materials, colorless and odorless, can withstand high temperatures of more than 200 degrees, and low temperatures of -40 degrees, this roll of film is the core of my cooking tonight, I will use this roll of film to defeat you all!" Climb to the top of the far moon! Look, Miss!! In the end, I didn't forget to make a promise to Nagi Alice on stage. Ye Shan Liang smiled disdainfully and did not respond. The hot-blooded stupid Chuangzhenjun shouted that he would not admit defeat easily, Jiang Yunfeng looked up at Mingyue, who had already come to the center of the patio, the game was more than halfway over, and it was time to do it. Take off your uniform jacket and reveal a T-shirt that is used as underwear, the snow-white T-shirt is printed on the front of the most popular two-dimensional idol singer, and the two big characters 'Honmei' are written on the back, yes, it's a pain shirt. The female classmates at the scene sighed, they didn't expect that Jiang Yunfeng, who missed the prince the most, would be a dead house, but the next operation made them turn back into a flower obsessive girl.
His own dish is a pie made of saury made by seven different cooking methods, and there is not much time left, so Jiang Yunfeng decided to start with the 'boiling' that takes the longest but doesn't require much attention. Take out a small pot, take out the fish that was originally soaked in salt water and rinse it under the faucet, wipe off the excess water with kitchen paper, put it in a small pot, take a piece of old ginger, peel and wash it, cut it into thin shreds and put it on the fish, put in sugar, soy sauce, rice wine, white vinegar, mirin respectively, the seasoning just submerged the fish, cover the pot, boil over high heat and simmer slowly over low heat. At the end of this, Jiang Yunfeng began to 'roast' again, lit the charcoal at the bottom of the special oven, because of the time relationship, temporarily changed the plan, directly sprinkled all the dried lychee shells into the charcoal fire and burned together, put the grill, and put the disembowelment, removed the internal organs and blood line pickled saury on the grill, cover the oven lid, and let it be fully smoked. Free your hand to shake the small pot of stewing, so as not to stick to the bottom of the pan, then carry out the 'steaming' link, relatively speaking, it is relatively simple, referring to the method of steaming sea bass in Cantonese cuisine, let the fish belly stuffed with green onion and ginger, the fish is poured with soy sauce and sent to the steamer, adjust the time, just 15 minutes to complete three different cooking methods, this time control, reasonable arrangement, attracted the audience amazed. Jiang Yunfeng, who was highly concentrated, but his heart was like water, didn't need to hear the audience's exclamation, and entered a realm of selflessness, as if there was only himself and the stove in heaven and earth, and everything else did not exist. The steamer was closed, the small pot was shaken again, the oven was glanced, the pan was picked up and the butter was put in and the 'frying' began, the saury was cut off in two middle vertebrae, the meat was removed, and the ribs were removed. Tie the outer skin with a cross knife, put it in a pan and put in the dill. Chopped onion, black pepper, rosemary, salt. Poured in French cognac, the pan was slightly tilted, the stove ignited the alcohol in the pot, Jiang Yunfeng scooped up the butter mixed with alcohol with a small spoon and poured it on the fish. Erina Nagi was unconvinced, "Dojima-senpai, you're exalting him too much, isn't it difficult for me to open it?" Dojima Gin smiled noncommittally and said, "Miss Erina, you can go back and try it yourself after the competition, it will be more convincing than I explained now." Alice, who has seen the hot kitchen of a Nordic restaurant, covered her mouth and chuckled, "Yes, cousin Erina, I don't believe you can try it yourself." ”
The fried fish is placed aside to cool down and set aside, the pan is replaced with two mouthfuls of Chinese wok, a mouthful of hot oil, a mouthful of peanut oil, a mouthful of bean paste, Sichuan pepper, chili, ginger, garlic, green onion, cooking wine, chili, salt and then pour the saury fillets grasped with egg whites, turn on the fierce fire, the high temperature is to make the wok ignite a fire, the fish slices are mixed with various spices in the flame with the left hand of one up and down, the right hand holds a frying spoon and scoops a small half spoon of sesame oil, slowly adds, the oil is out of the pot. The fried 'Sichuan spicy eel section (saury version) was completed, the small pot of cooking had been juiced, Jiang Yunfeng took it away from the stove and replaced it with a clay pot that had been loaded with raw materials, the timer sounded, opened the steamer and took out the steamed fish, as Jiang Yunfeng completed more and more dishes on the table, the fragrance gradually became stronger, permeating the audience, and the audience who seduced them drooled. Ye Shan Liang had been paying attention to Jiang Yunfeng all the time, and seeing him make so many saury dishes, he couldn't help but ask Kohei Chuangzhen next door with his curiosity, "What is he doing?" The competition only requires one dish, and it is a waste for him to do so much. "Kohei Sojin doesn't care about shrugging" The contest is asking for a dish, but Kaede intends to make all of this into a pie. ”
"What a joke! Didn't he know that so many dishes would taste good when combined? ”
"Ah Feng naturally has a way."
Just when the two were talking, Jiang Yunfeng finished the last two 'frying' and 'pot', took out a suitable baking tray and brushed it with oil, divided the dough that had been mixed with butter in advance into two parts, rolled out a large portion of the dough and spread it on the bottom of the baking sheet, and put the steamed saury with the bones removed and dismantled on the bottom layer first. Nagi Senzaemon was moved, and sighed, "What a great knife worker, how thick is a piece of kelp?" He can actually make 6 pieces! Dojima Ginya sighed, "I can't do it!" I must admit it. Seeing Jiang Yunfeng spread the first piece of kelp cloth on the steamed fish, the audience understood that Jiang Yunfeng was planning to use kelp cloth to isolate the problem of cross-flavoring between the fish made by different cooking methods. First, the bottom is steamed, followed by casserole, stewed, fried, stir-fried, smoked, and fried. There is a lot of moisture underneath, and each layer is separated by kelp, which is really exquisite! Senzaemon rarely praised the dishes made by the students, Dojima Gin also nodded in agreement, and Nagi Leona was even more shocked and speechless, her own Japanese was not good, and she wanted to praise but stammered, so she simply paid attention with expectant eyes and didn't speak.
Jiang Yunfeng capped the pie, pinched out the pattern on the side of the pie, saw that there was still a little dough left, and the bad taste was troubled, so he cut out a big star and placed it in the center of the pie, and found 7 fish heads to stand around the stars, reproducing the most famous dark cuisine of the Rotten Country in the previous life, and sending it to the oven.
