Chapter 300 Kansai Isshiki Family Three
Toshio Shiratsuki, who was alternating four pepper grinding bottles like juggling, was stunned when he saw that the theme ingredient displayed on the big screen was eel. The pepper grinding bottle that fell to the ground without bothering to pick it up, and the huge impact shattered the bottle made of mahogany, and the pepper fruit contained in it was scattered to the ground.
The cheers in the venue came to an abrupt end as if someone had choked the neck after the theme ingredients were announced. This time, just like the first matchup, the balance of victory has already tilted from the choice of themed ingredients. But it is also different, Jiang Yunfeng, who did not wash his hands in the first game, drew Ji Zhiguo Ningning is the most proficient, and it can be said that it is the 'soba noodles' that can be said to be the housekeeper's skill. Fortunately, Jiang Yunfeng himself has strong Chinese food, and Chinese food is also good at noodles, so he can rely on his super strength and a bit of outrageous luck to break the tilted balance back.
The style and character of the two sides in this match are extremely distinct. The Isshiki family runs a traditional Japanese restaurant in Kyoto, and after being a famous family, Isshiki Hui naturally inherited the family's skills. When it comes to cooking eels, it's easy to catch. After all, Japanese-style teriyaki eel rice was born in the Edo period under the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate, and has a history of hundreds of years, becoming a must-eat food in the summer for Japanese people. It's impossible that Issehui won't do it.
From the Meiji Restoration, he was the chef of the Italian Embassy and Consulates in Japan, and worked for the embassy for several generations, taking care of the daily meals and banquets of the embassy staff. The family's Italian cuisine has been honed over several generations to gain its reputation in both Italy and Japan. However, the world knows that Italy is located on the Apennine Peninsula, surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea on three sides. Thanks to the abundance of the Mediterranean, Italian cuisine on the western coast of the Mediterranean is never short of seafood dishes, in addition to the world-famous pizza and pasta dishes, as well as a variety of cheeses. It's just that I've rarely heard of eel dishes in Italy, so it's extremely unfair for Shishiki to draw eel as a theme ingredient for Toshio Shiratsu, who specializes in Italian cuisine.
"It's miserable~ it's miserable! The high morale was wiped out at once. "At the base camp of the central food institution, Si Yingshi said timidly, "If I encounter such a situation, I will definitely not be able to withstand such pressure, and I will immediately faint to the ground and then be in a coma for three or five days before I can recover... ”
The new third Xi Akane Kubo Tao tightened the puppet in her arms, and complained flatly, "Division~ It's not that I want you to play, why do you bother to that idleness.。。 ”
"The country of the first battle has been defeated, and if Senior Brother Baijin loses to Senior Brother Isshiki again this time, I, as the leader of the team of the Central Food Agency, will definitely be to blame! In the first round, I lost two in a row, how should I explain to the commander of thistle. ”
Ji Zhiguo, who was already in a low mood, became even more depressed when he heard Si Yingshi's words, and gently bit his lower lip, and his body began to tremble involuntarily. A white towel was placed on her head, and Kobayashi Gentian ran over in a hurry, touching his head and killing while comforting, "Ning Ning~ Ning Ning Si Yingshi's words, don't take it to heart~ You have done a great job." No need to explain, we all understand. ”
"I haven't said anything yet...
"We all know that, so there's no need to explain! Come ~ wipe away yesterday's tears and let us face the sun of tomorrow!! "Since Xiaolin Gentian had contact with Jiang Yunfeng, he has also learned his unobtrusive mouth to run the train.
After Rei Kawashima handed over the note with the name of the ingredient to the backstage staff, she returned to the arena to see Toshio Shiratsu, who was in a gray state, and asked worriedly, "Senior Shiratsu, do you have any comments on the ingredients drawn by Ichishiki Hui?" ”
“。。。。 Uh~" The sweet voice of the beautiful girl pulled Toshio Shiratsu back to reality from the state of downtime. A standard smile was revealed, and eight teeth glittered in the light "It's okay!" Even if it's an eel, I can compose a wonderful opera, lovely young lady~ stay tuned! ”
Rei Kawashima was fascinated by his charming melancholy temperament, beckoned the staff to send fresh eels, and then left the arena step by step, so as not to affect the cooking duel between the two sides.
After the main materials are on the field, it is different from selecting them one by one, and I can't wait to catch each one and check it carefully. Shiratsu took the lead and caught two of the largest eels in the entire pool and returned to his cooking area. The treatment began with a big cut, and the belly of the fish was shaved open to wash away the internal organs and blood. The fatty belly of the fish is left alone, and the rest is cut into large pieces.
Olive oil is poured into the pan, and Shiratsu Toshio pours large pieces of eel meat into the pan without any marinating, takes an onion and cuts it into thin strips, and throws a few cloves of garlic into the pan with the skin and mixes with the eel meat. The pretentious brought a pepper grinding bottle, and after a few tricks, he was willing to grind the pepper into the pot and sprinkle a pinch of salt.
Throwing it back, the pepper grinder fell steadily to the corresponding position of the spice rack as if it had eyes. Shiratsu turned the white wine to the side, like a fancy bartender, the bottle flew up and down around his body, and finally tossed it high and gently raised his right elbow to hold the bottle in the air. The left thumb blocks the mouth of the bottle, revealing only a small gap. Shaking his arm, the white wine draws almost the same size circle like a transparent ribbon, and falls evenly into the pan.
Shiratsuki's arms rose higher and higher, and the range of movements grew, but strangely not a drop of white wine landed on the stove outside the range of the pan. "Is this a waltz? It's really gorgeous~" Jiang Yunfeng was impressed by the cooking skills between Niu A and Niu C, and couldn't help but whistle "666~ shows the artistic cooking skills of Italian cuisine, but ~ Takmi, I remember that there are no eel as the main ingredients in Italian cuisine, doesn't this Baijin senior want to present his casual work in this kind of duel occasion? ”
"The theme is eel, which is a bit tough for an Italian chef." Takmi replied, "But I'm afraid people won't believe it, but in fact, eel is also a mainstream ingredient in European countries, but the signature dishes in the cuisines of various countries are so famous that European eel dishes have never been understood." Remember Kurokiba-kun's Matelote (sailor's fish soup) at the fall tryouts? The main ingredient is eel. The form of the dish is a French dish of Marseille fish soup. ”
"But it's French food, it doesn't represent Italian food."
"Italian cuisine is known as the 'mother of Western food', and of course there is also its own eel cuisine." Ryo Kurokiba, who looked sleep-deprived, kicked his hands in his trouser pockets and stood up, "In southern Italy, especially in Sicily and Sardinia, people have a custom of eating eels on Christmas Day. Locals believe that eels that live on the dark bottom of the sea are the embodiment of demons, and eating them on Christmas Day will remove bad luck and bless you with good luck in the coming year. As a result, many family-style recipes for eels were born, such as the Italian stew that Mr. Shiratsu was cooking. ”
When sage and fresh bay leaves are tossed into the pot, they bring out their own strange aromas, which makes the whole pot of eel stew very different in style. Toshio Shiratsuki, who is repairing the eel belly meat that has been specially reserved, smells the fragrance wafting from the pot, and a smile appears on the corner of his mouth, apparently quite confident in his own cooking.
