12 noon, Biscayne Forest Park.

The door of the second test venue was opened on time. The sound of 'grunting' from the venue became louder and louder. The candidates rushed in, and the unique layout of the venue aroused the curiosity of the candidates. More than 200 cooking counters are neatly placed on both sides of the main passage, and all kinds of kitchen utensils are readily available. At the end of the main passageway, a young woman in a black silk see-through dress leans on the sofa with her legs crossed, and behind her sat a fat man like a mountain of meat.

The secret voice of 'grunt' sounded again, and the woman on the sofa looked up to the fat man behind her and said, "You're already hungry, aren't you?" ”

The fat man Buhara complained with an aggrieved face, "Just by listening to the voice, you know that I'm about to faint from hunger, Menqi." ”

Menqi turned his head, stretched out his hand, pointed to the cooking table, and announced to the candidates, "So the second test is ...... Cuisine! ”

Menqi's words caused a commotion among the candidates. Of course, the source that has long used 'absolute' to hide behind the candidates is an exception. Gen needs to make different responses to determine which version of the plot of this test is better, and the new version of the anime only has a high-nose pig dish, while the old version and the manga have sushi plots.

============================================================================

On the tree outside the exam room. Satz observed the situation in the examination room.

"Food hunters, Menqi, Buhara. I found these two such tricky people as examiners. Buhara is fine, Menqi is a little ...... I look at this test, 50 people...... No, depending on the topic, there may be less than 10 people left in the end. ”

============================================================================

In the examination room, Yuan looked at Menqi's somewhat gloomy face and mourned for the other candidates in his heart. Especially the wrestler Takuto, the food hunter doesn't know anything, so he dares to stimulate Menqi. In fact, the source of this test is not too important. If it weren't for not wanting to affect the plot later, the source could be the only one who passed. After that, there will be unknown changes in the plot and difficulty of the exam. Even in the later 288 issues, there was an example of Qi Fang passing a test alone, but that was when he alone beat more than 1,000 candidates. This time, if there is an early qualification because of the cooking, the shady curtain will be too big, and the probability will be close to zero. Even if the ideas of the other candidates are negligible, the Hunters' Association doesn't care about that reputation, but don't forget that there are two perverts in this year's candidates, Hisoka and Ilumi, who are definitely in big trouble.

Buhara has announced pork dishes. The source is generally judged to be the new version of the plot, because the title of the old version is 'Roasted Whole Pig'! However, further confirmation is needed. After all, it's about which set of plans the source uses to pass this test without affecting the plot later.

Following the examinee out of the reception area, Yuan unobtrusively approached Hisoka. Stretch out your fingers and use your words to communicate with Siso

"Hisoka, is there a way you can help me hide my identity? I knew the examiner and didn't want to cause trouble. ”

Hisoka replied in the same words, "I can introduce my friend to you, and he can turn you into another person." It's just a little painful......"

Gen instantly thought of Illumi's full head of pins, and a chill fought. Although Illumini is a good credit for taking money to do things, in terms of personal feelings, Yuan still trusts Sisoo more. And the 'light illusion' at least doesn't hurt, and I'm not a masochist, so it's best if it doesn't hurt.

Gen continued to probe "Is there anything that doesn't hurt, and your friend looks weird." ”

Hisoka thought about it for a moment, and the pronunciation changed to "I have a ability to help you, because it is confidential, what price can you pay?" ”

Yuan put forward the conditions that he had thought of a long time ago: "I will help you with a free traumatic treatment in the future, including limb regeneration." But only if you can eat. ”

Without much thought, Hisoka agreed to Gen's deal. First, fill in and modify the facial contours of the source with 'free stretching love', and then cover it with a 'light illusion' to camouflage the skin and change the color of the eyes.

Yuan saw his flawless new face in the reflection of the stream, and complained a little maliciously, "If this guy Xisoo travels to South Korea in the world in his previous life, he will definitely be a national treasure." ”

The high-nosed pig, the most violent pig in the world, will kill enemies with its large, hard nose, and its weakness is the head protected by a hard pig nose. While the others were still being chased around by the highnose pigs, Yuan had already hunted two of them, pulling a pig's tail back with one hand. All the way slowly and leisurely, I don't care about other candidates carrying pigs to surpass themselves. After a while, Gen hid in the corner and began to study the high-nose pig.

Use the 'circle' to explore the cortex, fat, muscle and bone distribution of highnose pigs. When everything was clear, Yuan picked up the cooking knife. Disemboweling, cutting and decomposing, sorting and storage. After dividing the first pig. A candidate is already carrying a roasted blackened whole pig waiting for review.

"Huh? Only Bukhara judges. Then there should be a second one, and a half-baked one will be sent to it. Fortunately, I found Hisoka to do a 'disguise'. ”

Yuan put another pig on the grill, ignored it, and continued to study the divided ingredients.

"The bones of the pig stick are thick enough, so I don't know what the bone marrow is inside."

'Week'! Pork leg bones, which are as hard as steel, can be cut as easily as a hot knife cut through butter. Yuan took out some bone marrow with his hand, pinched it with two fingers, put it in front of his nose and smelled it, licked it with his tongue, and then threw it into the fence and blanched it in boiling water, and finally scooped it up and put it in his mouth to chew.

"Hmm~ The taste is light and tough, but there is a lot of oil, so you have to find a way to get rid of it."

Suddenly, a burnt smell came, and Yuan glanced at the roast pig on the grill, because it was not flipped over, one side of the pig's body was already burnt, and the other side was simply raw. Yuan unhurriedly put the roast pig on a large plate, pulled out the stick and threw it aside. Carrying the roast pig to Menqi and Buhara.

Menqi frowned at the half-cooked roast pig. Bukhara

But he ate it after a while, and gave it a qualification.

"Hey! Buhara, forget the rest. It obviously can't be called a dish. Menqi looked at the back of Yuan leaving and said to Buhara. There was a hint of familiarity in that back, but I couldn't remember where I had seen it.

Buhara didn't care, "There's nothing wrong with it, anyway, a lot of people have been brushed off." And the purpose of the test is not to test their cooking skills, the taste is not important. ”

"You're just too good at talking, but you're a bit of a gourmet."

"Occasionally switch up and try dark cuisine. Or the taste buds are too squeamish. ”

"I'm still obsessed with my palate!"

After another half an hour, Bukhara was contented and terrified. The candidates watched in shock as he ate 71 high-nose pigs. is several times his volume. Buhara is very honest and gives a good evaluation. (Of the 71 people who caught the pigs, the others changed the pig feed)

"287 hunter exams, 71 people passed the first exam of the 2nd test!" Menqi announced with an unhappy face. In her opinion, this is insulting the cuisine, not to mention that there were candidates who underestimated the food hunter before, which made her extremely dissatisfied.

"Buhara is so easy to talk to, I'm very strict. Next, I will come up with the second topic, which is...... Sushi. And I only admit 'nigiri sushi'! Menqi announced the title of the second session.

"Sure enough! That guy was stimulated by me three years ago. It is only recognized as 'nigiri sushi'. Yuan felt that Menqi's appearance was a little angry and complained in his heart, "Menqi, you have to take medicine on time for your bad disease." ”

Except for two and a half candidates, the rest of the 71 candidates were at a loss.

"Hehe, look at your confused expressions. And no wonder. After all, this is the folk cuisine of an island country. ”

Menqi smiled evilly and explained, "I'll give you a hint!" I have prepared the necessary materials and props for you at your counter, and we have also prepared vinegared rice, which is indispensable for sushi. Well, when I'm full, the test will be over. ”

Two and a half of all the candidates who knew about nigiri were one who lowered his head and continued to ponder and study the high-nose pig cuisine, one was gloating and looking at the dazed candidates, and the other half was secretly telling Leoleo about the nigiri sushi dishes he had seen in the materials.

"Fish!? You're not mistaken, right? We're in the forest now, where to find the fish?! Leoleo shouted loudly.

Kuka Pika angrily threw the rice shovel in Leoleo's face, "I'm going to die!" So loud! Aren't there streams or ponds in the forest? ”

"Fish !!" The quick-reacting candidate turned around and rushed out.

"It's despicable enough to eavesdrop on us," Leoleo was completely unaware.

Yuan didn't leave the console, and this exam didn't matter to him, anyway, the president would come to the round in the end. Gen just glanced at Menqi's face when Leoleo shouted that it was time to break the fish, and continued his research.

The pig's nose is very hard, and the gum layer is cushioned under the steel-like bone layer, and there is also a lot of cartilage.

The smell of internal organs is too strong, so there are several methods of stir-frying, boiling, and stewing.

In terms of pork, belly, ribs, rumps, legs, and loin can all be cooked in different cooking techniques, especially Wagyu beef, which has a section of loin that is more comparable to 5A, and should be used for sour food.

But what interests the source the most is the leg bone marrow of the high-nose pig, as long as the fat is disposed of, it is definitely a top-notch ingredient.

The source is studying how to remove oil from the bone marrow.

"You can't use heat treatment, so that although the oil will come out, the bone marrow fibers will become too strong and taste bad. Cold treatment evaporation is mostly not water. Well...... Maybe you can try it for maturation, and you have to find some spices that are rich in enzymes that break down oil. ”

With a gentle pry with a knife, the dense bones of the pork leg bones were pried open like the lid of a box, and the oily white bone marrow was lying intact in the bone marrow cavity. The source carefully removed the bone marrow and observed the movement of its fibers. The bone marrow is then divided into two finger-thick strips along the fibers. Wrap several pieces of bone marrow in thick absorbent paper. Finally, carefully place it in the prepared storage box.

"There are no spices and vacuum bags, try the most standard dry maturation first, and then talk about wet maturation."

Yuan took out the bone marrow of the other leg bones, but this time he cut the bone marrow into hair-thick filaments along the fiber and put them in the side plate for later use. The best pork belly is cut into square bricks, and simmered with spices and sauces. Then take the backbone and pig's feet and chop them, add water and start to boil the broth.

"Number 406, what are you doing?" Yuan finally caught Menqi's attention......
