Volume 1 What about me crossing you? Chapter 52: Departure
"Well, yes, I passed the test and made a lot of progress " The old man also nodded and looked at Gu Bai appreciatively.
Gu Bai knew that the old man meant that his progress in cooking heart had been recognized by the old man.
This also made Gu Bai breathe a sigh of relief, "Thanks to Mr. Seiichiro's guidance"
Seiichiro nodded and encouraged Gu Bai.
On the other hand, Xingping Chuangzhen also looked at Gu Bai a little strangely, I don't know what my father guided, but it was more attractive to Xingping Chuangzhen is the bowl of artwork like 'Sakura Shrimp and Wild Mushroom Cooking Rice' in front of him, "Gu Bai, I can't help it, let's go?" ”
Gu Bai also had this intention, and Chuangzhen was finally reliable, "I thought you weren't hungry?" Then let's get started."
So all four of them picked up their spoons and began to taste them.
Kohei Chuangzhen scooped a full spoonful with a porcelain spoon and stuffed it into his mouth, and with the cool and slippery taste of the cold day liquid into his throat, Kohei Chuangzhen's whole body felt alive, like a walker in the desert, and at this moment he poured a mouthful of iceberg snow water, and his appetite increased greatly for a while.
After entering the cold day liquid, the next thing you feel is the mousse. Because of the refrigeration, the mousse is not greasy, but melts in the mouth like ice cream, which has the effect of connecting the previous cold weather.
The next layer is the Sakura Shrimp Cook, the rice grains are round and plump, not like the cooking rice will be a little dry, and what makes Kohei Soma even more strange is that the rice at Kohei Restaurant doesn't seem to have a sweet taste. But this spoonful of rice Kohei Chuangzhen doesn't know how to describe it, but it is full and sweet, and it undoubtedly complements the previous mousse.
As you chew carefully, the small aroma of the cherry blossom shrimp begins to take over the mouth little by little, and the shrimp meat is full of meat and taste, and the refreshing texture is as fascinating as a prawn swimming in the sea.
At the dining table, the old man, Kohei Soma and Seiichiro silently tasted the 'Sakura Shrimp and Wild Mushroom Cooked' one bite after another, all of them were deeply intoxicated.
At this moment, the three of them were greatly satisfied, and they seemed to feel that their souls were standing in front of a door in their intoxication. The gate slowly opens to both sides, and standing on top of the mountain peak overlooking the mountains and greens below, not only rain but also snow, falling lightly from the sky. A gust of wind passed, and the cherry blossoms on the trees swayed in the wind, red and white. You can smell the sweet fragrance of cherry blossoms in front of your nose.
The soul restraints and superfluous thoughts of the three of them will temporarily perch here and enjoy the feast of cherry blossoms on the top of the mountain.
Unconsciously, a whole pot full of 'Sakura Shrimp and Wild Mushroom Cooking Rice' had bottomed out, and this was still the amount that Gu Bai deliberately added to half of the rice.
"Gu Bai, why does rice have a pulpy-like texture and sweet juice?" Kohei Soma licked it, and there was still sweetness in his mouth.
"Because the rice is processed in a special way, when cooking rice in the rice cooker, I add a small half bowl of sweet milk, just like making porridge, but the amount and sweetness of the milk should be controlled, and try not to have excess soup." Gu Bai didn't hide his secrets, and generously answered Chuangzhen's doubts, milk soaked rice, many children will eat it when their teeth and appetite are not very good.
"I see! Preparation of milk porridge. Kohei Sozane reacted immediately when he heard it.
The old man and Seiichiro glanced at each other, and compared to some of Kohei Soma's questions about the method, what surprised and relieved the two of them was that the kitchen heart in the cuisine had been fully displayed, and the souls of the three people perched on the top of the mountain, which was in line with the last sentence of the poem, 'Dream of lying on the flower bush and where it is, Mt. Fuji'.
To achieve this, the chef's skill, the mastery of the chef's heart, and the meticulous and holistic conception of the cuisine must be tightly stitched.
In terms of cuisine, Gu Bai's 'cherry blossom shrimp and wild mushroom cooking rice' has been recognized by Seiichiro when he cooks it. And the kitchen heart is also the reason why Seiichiro and the old man are relieved at this moment, Gu Bai's kitchen heart world has shown a wonderful spiritual world, which can drive the soul of diners to travel.
"Gu Bai, I'm very relieved that you went to the United States to study with thistle, this dish is ingenious in terms of innovation, and the details are also cleverly handled, and on the whole, it is connected by sweetness and refreshing as a thread. Whether it is cold liquid, refrigerated cheese mousse, fresh milk in rice, and the deliciousness of shrimp meat are all integrated, condensing towards a point, which is very impactful. The old man commented with satisfaction.
Seiichiro nodded, looked at Gu Bai appreciatively, and then said the old man's words, "The teacher said so much sweet, but the taste of the cooking rice is not sweet. The secret lies in the secret combination of temperature and the taste of the ingredients. The refrigerated temperature is moderate, and it is as cool as ice cream. The choice of strawberries is also applauded, with sweet and sour strawberries and a soft red hue, giving the whole dish a cherry blossom theme. Occasionally, when your teeth bite into the flesh of a strawberry, it will also make you feel refreshed."
"Satisfied, right? Chuangzhen, are you motivated to cook tonight? Gu Bai looked at Chuangzhen and said with a smile.
Kohei Soma squinted and smiled, "Of course, full of energy." Today, the guests of Kohei Restaurant will definitely be satisfied. ”
The four of them chatted for a while, Xingping Chuangzhen got up and cleaned up the table, and Gu Bai and the old man were ready to say goodbye.
Gu Bai stepped forward and hugged Xingping Chuangzhen, "Chuangzhen, then I'll set off tomorrow." ”
Kohei Chuangzhen is not hypocritical, probably because Seiichiro also often travels, so he is used to such occasions, and said, "Gu Bai, if you go to the United States, the study of cooking will be very hard, right?" ”
Gu Bai nodded in agreement, but no, the devil-like training of the Nagi Cutting Thistle will definitely not be easy, and the cold personality of the Nagi Cutting Thistle will definitely not let go of water in the slightest.
"Then Gu Bai, I'm going to work harder. See you in the far month entrance exam! Kohei said with a confident smile.
"No problem, see you in the moon!" Gu Bai replied confidently.
Then, Gu Bai also solemnly expressed his gratitude to Mr. Seiichiro.
After Seiichiro and the old man discussed Gu Bai's itinerary to the United States and some details, the time was not early, and it was about time for the Kohei Restaurant to open, so Gu Bai and the old man also said goodbye and went home.
While waiting at the subway station, Gu Bai suddenly remembered that he still had to buy a mobile phone, so he hurriedly changed the subway and rushed to the electronic city to buy a mobile phone, and the old man went back first because he was tired.
After Gu Bai arrived home, he hurriedly packed his things until midnight, and he always had to rush back before going abroad.
In the early morning of the next day, Mr. Seiichiro drove Gu Bai to the airport on time, and everything went smoothly.
With the blessings of the old man and Seiichiro and Kohei Sojin, Gu Bai boarded the plane to the United States and started a new journey.
