Chapter Forty-Six: The Results of Crushing (Ask for Recommendation, Collection!!) )
The corners of his eyes trembled slightly, and Xiong Yuan of the Northern Dynasty never thought that the hibiscus crab soup, which he had carefully trained and even endowed with part of his cooking skills, would be so easy to defeat.
The moment he ate the jelly-like thing, he had been shattered by an incomparable delicious taste that broke through the barrier in his mouth.
It is obviously a frozen soup, but after entering the mouth, it melts as if it is a liquid at all, and it disintegrates the moment it comes into contact with the temperature of the mouth.
The cold taste is only instantaneous, and even just touching the tongue has turned into an amazing soup.
The sourness, umami, and a slight bitterness mixed with the last touch completely revive the taste that has been invaded by hairy crabs, and then indulge in the dragon palace built by crabs and fruits!
It was as if the three judges had been whetted with an incomparable appetite.
His eyes lit up, and he kept moving to the orange vessel in front of him, and his face showed an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
It was as if a clear spring had fallen to nourish the body and mind, causing the light reflection on the skin of all three of them.
Including the Northern Dynasty Xiong Yuan is the same, even he eats faster than the two people around him!
The oranges are not very big, and after four or five bites, all the soup has been frozen.
But at this moment, the appetite of the three judges seemed to have just been awakened, and they were even hungrier!
Aoyama Iji has been watching the judges' expressions from the side, and he can't help but tremble at the root of his teeth when he sees this situation.
His soup judges only ate one bite by themselves, and even Xiong Yuan, who ate the most, only ate half a bowl, and there were still a lot left on the plate.
And Zhao Youqian's soup, he doesn't need to look at it, he also knows that it has been eaten all away!
'No way, I wouldn't lose so easily!' ’
There was a touch of madness in his eyes, thinking of the price he had paid, and once the halberd failed, he had to agree to Zhao Youqian's request that he could not refuse.
That sense of fear drove this young man who had a great future crazy.
"It's impossible to lose, it's impossible, it's impossible!"
I saw him rush to the judges' stage and yell.
"Say! Did he lose? I can't lose, I can't! ”
The judges present saw Aoyama's movements and expressions unchanged, because soon a staff member stepped forward and pulled Aoyama Aoji, who had collapsed due to pressure, aside.
Because he can't see the hope of winning, there are actually not a few players who have collapsed like this in the halberd, and the IGO staff can be regarded as having a wealth of experience in dealing with it.
At least in Zhao Youqian's eyes, it didn't take long for Aoyama Iji to come out with wet hair.
Standing dejectedly, waiting for the three judges, who had closed their eyes, to announce the final results.
Jiu Zhen Luyuan can be said to be the most shocked among the three judges present, even if he has already known and heard about Zhao Youqian's cooking skills, but he has not really tasted it, it is just information on paper.
For a big man who has been sitting and watching the IGO Kyoto Imperial Branch for many years, this kind of praised genius is not unprecedented.
But when he really tasted Zhao Youqian's dishes, he understood why IGO was so careful about Zhao Youqian's intelligence blockade.
This is a real demon!
'I've been unlucky for so many years, it's time for me to transit!' ’
I couldn't help laughing wildly in my heart, and the eyes of Jiu Zheng Luyuan when he looked at Zhao Youqian became more and more fond, and even made Zhao Youqian's back tighten.
'My good man, doesn't this IGO branch minister have any special fetishes and fall in love with my flower-like beauty, right? ’
Feeling that fiery eyes, Zhao Youqian couldn't help but feel afraid, and made up his mind that he would stay away from this IGO branch for a long time in the future, although he did not discriminate, but it was still strange to think about it.
Xinghei Seiichiro didn't know that Zhao Youqian had already made up a big drama in his brain, and looked at the empty orange shell that was already empty and only had a white inner sac.
"The source of your creative idea for this dish should be the ancient Yaozhou dish, crab stuffed orange, right?"
As a delicious pioneer who has seen the cuisines of various countries, Seiichiro Kohei can see through the roots of Zhao Youqian's dish at a glance.
Crab stuffed orange is a famous dish of Yaozhou Hokkien cuisine.
The ancient text contains: the orange is cut off, the grain is removed, a little liquid is left, the crab paste meat is solid, the top is still covered with a pedicle branch, it is entered into a small retort, steamed with wine, vinegar and water, and the bitter wine is added to the salt, and it is offered, both fragrant and fresh, so that people have the interest of new wine chrysanthemum and orange crab.
Its taste is leisurely, and it is also a very difficult dish to cook, and Zhao Youqian made this new soup with its construction method, Orange Lake Crab!
"That's right! At the beginning, I built this dish with the concept of crab stuffed orange, but after I noticed the blockade of the umami of the other party's hairy crab, I made a little change. ”
"The orange lid that has just disappeared is to spread the part of the orange peel on the frozen gelatin powder skin, and when the heat rises, the peel melts and the orange peel falls, making up for the final flavor and making the soup freeze, forming the freshest frozen soup taste."
Zhao Youqian did not explain all the ingredients of his cuisine in detail, also because of the presence of dark chefs.
However, since Xiong Yuan of the Northern Dynasty is a special chef, he naturally has his own level.
Sneered, and spoke slowly.
"The orange peel on the top of the lid is not only the orange peel of the simple orange infrared peel, but even the white inner pulp with a bitter taste should also be infused with some of the juice, and even the auspicious powder peel has been fused with orange juice to be integrated into the soup in a short time without a trace."
"I'm not wrong, am I?"
Nodding, it is not surprising that Xiong Yuan of the Northern Dynasty can see his own techniques Zhao Youqian, the special chef is almost standing at the top of the entire world cooking world, and he belongs to a small number of people in the upper echelons of the pyramid, if these things can't be seen, he won't have such a high status.
Even IGO has to be afraid of the special identity, and can't use the strong, so that the Northern Dynasty Xiong Yuan is still free.
But he didn't just use these techniques, one of the more ingenious things was that when he served it before, the soup was indeed hot, but before he could open it, the soup was already frozen.
And this kind of rapid cooling, which can not be done by just the frozen gelatin flour skin, can make the soup melt in the mouth, and the taste is extremely fresh, and he has borrowed part of the power of the Snow Maiden among the hundred ghosts.
This is a method that they can't crack!
"Using the chicken broth of the steam-pot chicken as the base, the brook crab is the main axis, and the sour, bitter, and sweet taste of the fruit orange..."
"But why is the creek crab so strong? Even this orange smell can't erase its traces? ”
Jiuzhen Luyuan raised a question, and this is also the point that Zhao Youqian is most proud of.
"Salt, I use a lot of salt in the crab soup, just like making shrimp paste and fish sauce, a lot of salt can continuously improve the umami and the taste of the brook crab, and finally I boil the concentrated crab soup and add it to the chicken soup and orange as a seasoning."
"The flavor of the brook crab will become the main axis that cannot be ignored, and it will also become the only savory seasoning in this soup!"
For example, shrimp paste and fish sauce are both types of fish sauce that use a lot of salt to marinate the ingredients, so that the flavor of the ingredients themselves is so strong that they cannot be added.
Hearing this, Seiichiro Kohei understood why Zhao Youqian chose to use the smallest stream crab as the main material.
Because the smaller the brook crab, the more full of crab flavor, after stirring or even mashing, with a large amount of salt, to decipher enough umami substances.
If you switch to a larger crab, the process will not only be prolonged, but also more energy-intensive.
The crushing of the taste, coupled with the creativity and level of the dishes.
It can be said that Zhao Youqian's soup has exploded the hibiscus crab soup of Aoyama Ushiro.
The results are already evident.
Three to zero, Zhao Youqian crushed his opponent without accident and won the victory of the halberd!
And at this time, Zhao Youqian also began to prepare to harvest the fruits of his halberd!
At this very moment....
