Chapter Twenty-Seven: Turning the Tide
Kohei Soma and Hojo Miyoko made many attempts, but they failed to get rid of the fishy smell of fish, watching time pass little by little, and the Beijing Hotel team opposite was methodically cooking homework, Miyoko began to get irritable and grabbed Sojin's collar and shook it vigorously, "Kohei-kun!" Think of a way, time is running out, we are still behind, if this game is lost, Dad will not be able to return to the sky!" Chuangzhen was shaken, and his brain was swollen, and he hurriedly comforted Miyoko, "Hojo. Calm down! Stop, stop shaking! I can't think about it. Miyoko hurriedly let go and apologized. Sojin shook his dizzy head and said to Miyoko, "Hojo, you take care of all the fish first and remove the fishy line." Deboning and cutting into fish fillets, time is running out, and if you can't do it, you can only bite the bullet! "Good!" Miyoko responded and began to work. Kohei Sojin looked at the failed product in the pot and thought, what would he do if his father was here? What if Jiang Jun did? Suddenly, Chuangzhen recalled the night he just stayed at Polestar Liao, Jiang Yunfeng made the 'Song Sister-in-law Fish Soup' for everyone, and there was no onion, ginger and garlic, and Jiang Yunfeng marinated it with vinegar and pepper before steaming the fish, and the sour taste and pepper could also mask the fishy smell of the fish! Really, how did you forget it? Chuangzhen patted his head in annoyance, rummaged for the seasoning, it just so happened that the black vinegar sauce, black pepper, and tomato paste were all there, and Uncle Sojiro took back the sugar, which was very good, and could make fried fish fillets with sweet and sour flavors. Chuangzhen tried it with a small piece of fish first, and the fishy smell was well masked by the aroma of sweet and sour sauce and pepper, so he took the sample product to Miyoko and Sojiro who was steaming pumpkin to taste, and was recognized, so he let go of his hands and feet to catch up with the progress, Kohei Sojin put all the fish fillets cut by Miyoko in a large basin and poured a whole bottle of Italian balsamic vinegar and a large amount of black pepper for marinating, Hojo Miyoko saw that so many fish fillets would definitely not work if they were fried in a frying pan, so she opened the teppanyaki table in advance and began to warm up. Sojiro's pumpkin was prepared and he also came back to participate in the production of the main dish, Kohei Sokuma picked up the fish fillet that had been pickled and came to the teppanyaki table to start frying the fish fillet, Sojiro controlled the whole audience, and instructed Miyoko to put all the plates to be used in the steamer to heat, and the hot dishes must be served with hot plates, and began to study the plating. Chuangzhen listened carefully to the sound of frying, carefully turning the fish fillet, and coating each side with tomato paste with white sugar. The three of them did not speak, made eye contact throughout the whole process, tacitly cooperated and cooperated, and chased after the Beijing Hotel at an astonishing speed. The changes in Hojo naturally attracted the attention of the judges, Sun Yuanliang stroked his beard and nodded with a smile, watching Hojo Lou from the initial panic and passivity, and then Kohei Sojin found a way to get rid of the fish, Hojo Lou was like a machine with suitable gears, and began to run at high speed. Jiang Yunfeng in the stands also smiled, Jiang Yutong touched his younger brother's forehead with his jade hand suspiciously, "You don't have a fever, what are you smiling at?" Jiang Yunfeng coughed awkwardly and said, "What I'm laughing at is that the winner of this game has been decided." ”
"The main dishes haven't been served to the judges yet, so why are you decided?"
"Uncle Sojiro has already thought that the main dish is fried fish fillet from the beginning of the selection of ingredients, otherwise he would not have asked for black vinegar sauce and black pepper after taking the green onions, ginger and garlic, in other words, it doesn't matter if Chef Wei Yuan takes the green onions, ginger and garlic or not, Uncle Sojiro didn't plan to use green onions, ginger and garlic for the main dish, so he let Chuangzhen and Miyoko cook the main dish, and he went to prepare desserts in advance, sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy, but Wei Yuan is also very smart, he knew that he was fooled when he got the green onions, ginger and garlic, I think the main dish of the ingredients he went to get first should be a stew, but now Wei Yuan temporarily changed the recipe, using all the green onions, ginger and garlic, and turning the stewed chicken into spicy chicken. The victory or defeat of the master is often in this millimeter. ”
Seeing that Jiang Yutong nodded as if he didn't understand, Jiang Yunfeng smiled bitterly, and said it in vain.
"It's time! Please stop what you're doing and present your work! The waiters carried large trays and carried away the dishes of the two teams. Erina Nagikiri tasted the spicy chicken from the Beijing Hotel for a long time, then took a sip of water and then tasted the pan-fried fish fillet with balsamic sauce and pepper tomato paste from Hojolou. Sun Yuanliang smiled and asked, "Girl, how is it?" Is there a conclusion to your 'tongue of God'? "Senior, the chicken is very fragrant and tastes good, but when it is old, the fish fillet is just right in terms of heat and seasoning." "Oh~hehe, is it?"
The review results returned to the host's hands, "The review results have come out, and the spicy chicken produced by the Beijing Hotel has 20 votes!" Hojo Lou's fried fish fillet in black vinegar sauce won 33 votes, and Hojo Lou won! The overall score was 47 to 59, and Hojo led by 12 votes, oh!! Master Wei Yuan is going to come on. Next, in the dessert section, will Master Wei Yuan turn defeat into victory or Hojolou will go all the way, let's wait and see, the dessert link, start! ”
Sojiro Hojo moved his wrist and said to Soma and Miyoko, "You guys rest on the sidelines, watch me!" Sojiro crushed the pumpkin that had been steamed and cooled in advance into pumpkin puree, added white sugar and stirred well, put it in a container and put it in the freezer to freeze it and left the cooking area, as if he was going to get something, "No wonder Uncle Sojiro asked us to make the main dish and steam the pumpkin ourselves, otherwise it would be too late to start now, but the pumpkin puree and freezing in such a short time can't be stopped." Sozhen-kun asked her own question with a sip of juice, and Miyoko shrugged her shoulders and replied, "I don't know, but there is no sugar on the other side, so it should be more urgent than us." ”
Ling Zhendong, who was on the judges' seat, watched Wei Yuan's apples puree, mixed into flour, and all kinds of fruits diced, sighed and said, "Wei Yuan is in a hurry." Sun Yuanliang also shook his head and sighed, "Well, Xiaowei is in a hurry, even if he wants to make fruit tarts, he should also use bananas or oranges in the noodles, but he wants to use apples, stumped that he forgot that apples will produce water when heated?" Hey, the winner has been decided, Xiaowei is still too young compared to Hojo. ”
Sojiro Hojo returned to the arena with a large jar wrapped in a thick cloth, half of the time had passed, Sojiro took out the pumpkin puree from the freezer, the time was too short and only the surface hardened but could not be formed, Sojiro smiled, this is what he wanted, pulled out the blockage of the tube, and the thick white steam gushed out of the pipe air. "It's liquid nitrogen!" Erina Nagikiri exclaimed, "No wonder he had to freeze it beforehand, that is, to harden the surface of the pumpkin puree to prevent it from seeping into the inside of the pumpkin puree and forming bubbles when the liquid nitrogen is poured into the water to cool down sharply." It seems that as the predecessors said, the winner is really decided! ”
Sojiro cuts the pumpkin puree frozen with liquid nitrogen into small pieces, melts it a little and then rolls it in the deglazed coconut to coat it with desiccated coconut. Finish! Pumpkin cake with grated coconut
Wei Yuan's fruit tart was also baked at the same time. There is no suspense in the ending, Wei Yuan's fruit tart because there is no sugar taste, only the taste of the fruit itself, no match for Hojo Sojiro's coconut pumpkin cake, the score was finally fixed at 60 to 89, in Hojo Sojiro's scheming and routine, the young Wei Yuan was defeated, Hojo Lou passed the test, and successfully reached the semifinals. . .
