Chapter 194: The Mountain of Fuji (Part II)
"Hey, Five, why don't you speak, are you still alive? You can't have been poisoned by the delicious taste of pufferfish. Examiner No. 3 suddenly teased examiner No. 5.
Examiner No. 5 was awakened by the voice of examiner No. 3, and just wanted to open his mouth to refute, but was shocked to find that his tongue and lips were slightly numb.
"Even poisoned, even astringent hair numb, doctor, doctor, help!" Examiner No. 5 shouted in panic.
The logistical support of the Culinary Association was very effective, and soon a doctor entered the No. 5 judging table for treatment. Within a few minutes, the doctor said with a puzzled face that all the physical signs and indicators of the No. 5 examiner were normal, and there was no poisoning, allergies or other adverse reactions. Before leaving, the doctor gently suggested that examiner No. 5 consider going for a brain CT or EEG screening.
After the initial panic, Examiner No. 5 also felt that the numbness of his tongue and lips was rapidly subsiding, as if it was just a hallucination.
His face was flushed with shame, and he explained embarrassedly in the examiner's communication channel: "I didn't sleep well last night, a delusion, a delusion." ”
Examiner No. 3's undisguised demonic laughter followed.
"Hey...", the second examiner sighed helplessly from the speaker.
Examiner No. 3 laughed for three minutes, and before Examiner No. 5's patience reached the limit, Examiner No. 1 finally spoke:
"Alright, No. 3, time is running out, let's get down to business first. Everyone should have tasted candidate Tang Yunfei's dish 'Fuji Mountain'. Now it's time to start reviewing. ”
Examiner No. 3 stopped laughing wildly, and was the first to speak after Examiner No. 1 finished speaking:
"As an examiner majoring in Toei cuisine, I feel that I should be the most qualified to comment on this dish."
Examiner No. 5 snorted unhappily.
"Hey, why do you want to comment on the fiveth, okay, come on. But if it's wrong, I'll be honest with you. ”
Examiner No. 5 did not dare to speak again.
"It seems that someone is from the heart, then I'm welcome." Examiner No. 3 continued her high-profile style.
"Tang Yunfei, I am very satisfied with your dish, and I barely deserve the name 'Fuji Mountain'.
Your knife skills are exquisite, and you are neat and neat when handling puffer fish, and you use the knife technique of thin and thick slicing very appropriately, and the sweetness of the puffer fish is completely locked in the meat, and your skill is no less than that of a teacher who has practiced for more than ten years, which is a miracle for your age.
But don't expect me to compliment you for that, because it's not worth it. You already have the name of a genius in cooking, genius is to do things that others can't do, your knife skills and your reputation can only be said to be basically consistent, not worth mentioning. ”
Examiner No. 4 listened to No. 3's words and shook his head with a wry smile. Now that he had basically guessed which one of the culinary associations was the No. 3 examiner, she was really as arrogant and poisonous as ever.
The voice of examiner No. 3 continued to be heard over the speaker:
"The biggest highlight of your dish is in your look. Because the flesh of fugu is relatively hard, it is generally thinner than ordinary sashimi in other regions except the Kansai region, and it looks like flower petals or feathers. In order to reflect the characteristics of knife skills, the puffer fish sashimi is mainly arranged in four types: Tsurumori, Kikumori, Peacock, and Peony.
Your 'Fuji Mountain' is a unique combination of maki-e and pastel-e to create 'Fugaku', and the overall shape is very artistic, and it may become a new fashion in the future. As a Toei cuisine that is judged on 'color, shape, and taste', you should get full marks for 'color and shape'.
Of course, this is also because I have a unique eye to see the ingenuity of your technique. Hehe, sure enough, a chef who doesn't understand art is not a good judge. ”
Listening to the praise of the No. 3 examiner, Tang Yunfei's face was not happy, his expression was indifferent, and the No. 2 and No. 4 examiners who had been observing him nodded secretly.
"Alright, let's say 'but'" Examiner No. 5 urged impatiently.
"Hmph, even though it was upset for the rude guy to guess what I was going to say, I still had to say 'but'."
"Your fugu sashimi ingredients are precious, fresh, and skillful, but there is still room for improvement in your cooking."
When Tang Yunfei heard the No. 3 examiner say this, he bowed slightly and said, "Please give me more advice." ”
"Hehehe, the attitude is quite correct, then I will make an exception to point you out." Examiner No. 3 seemed to be in a good mood, and his tone was much more relaxed.
"You use thickly sliced puffer fish meat to make waves, puffer fish skin to make the foot of Mount Fudake, and thinly sliced to make the middle of the mountain, and the taste progresses layer by layer, but the fresh and sweet taste gradually fades.
When you reach the top of the mountain, you use the "snow" nest of fugu essence (harmony) called 'Shih Tzu', which is so sweet and tender that it will make diners who have become accustomed to the texture and taste of puffer fish fall into a huge transformation.
And you deliberately left a little toxin on the knife when cooking the puffer fish, and left it on it when you processed the 'Shih Tzu milk', so that the diners who have enjoyed the delicious taste will feel the shadow of death without psychological preparation.
From the 'difficult pursuit' to the 'bland taste', to the 'happiness that fell from the sky', and finally the 'inevitable ending' ended this feast of sight and taste. A sashimi dish that can create a Zen spirit of 'life is impermanent, one period and one meeting', and it is worthy of the 'oni god boy' praised by Ono Shino, and he has been able to do it in just six years, even I have to praise it.
But why don't you just use puffer fish liver in the final ending, and add a piece of puffer fish liver to the 'Fuyue Mountain Peak', so that diners can feel the most intense and gorgeous choices in life, which is the most perfect! ”
"Enough is No. 3, you're crazy, puffer fish liver is highly poisonous, you don't want to kill others yourself." Examiner No. 5 couldn't help but accuse.
"Shut up, insist on martyrdom on the way to pursue the ultimate delicacy, how can you obtuse guy who has no pursuit understand."
"The guy who dies to eat is the idiot."
Examiner No. 3 and Examiner No. 5 did not give in to each other, and after a few words, they began to care fiercely about each other's physical condition
Hearing the quarrel between the two, the No. 1 examiner couldn't help but touch the corner of his forehead and felt a headache, "I knew that I should have asked for a new draw in the first place, and these two people couldn't do anything together." ”
Examiner No. 4, who had not spoken much, suddenly spoke:
"Everyone, haven't you noticed, in fact, Tang Yunfei has already added puffer fish liver to the cuisine."
"What?" The two examiners, No. 3 and No. 5, exclaimed at the same time.
One said, "No way, if anything, I didn't eat it." ”
Another said: "I said how my tongue and lips were numb just now, and I thought it was a hallucination, but it turned out to be a ghost from you." ”
Tang Yunfei did not deny it, with a mysterious smile on his face, he asked at the camera:
"How did you find out?"
The dull voice of examiner No. 4, modified by a voice changer, came:
"Your portion is controlled very precisely, and the usage is even more ingenious, even an old driver like No. 3 has been deceived by you. Actually, I didn't notice it at first, until I mistook it for myself and later justified it as a hallucination. The puffer fish poison that Ma Hao added to the cold pot fish is also provided by you. ”
Tang Yunfei raised his eyebrows, "It turns out that you tasted it before, and I thought it was my recipe with some fatal flaw." ”
Examiner No. 3 said a little frantically, "What the hell are you talking about?" Four, where the hell did he use the puffer fish liver, why can't I find it? ”
Four replied unhurriedly, "He is very cunning, he puts puffer fish poison in the most common things, making us lose our vigilance and take it voluntarily without realizing it." ”
Xing Meow: I have to ask for collections and recommendations, I found that I am now recommending, but the data is so poor, is it really not good to look at the realistic style of food? Consider whether to follow the path of the magic food system flow as well.
