Chapter 316: Seasoning Story
"Full marks, perfect marks, completely wooden, well, it's delicious. After tasting the dishes cooked by Shen Chu in turn, one of the judges looked up and sighed, and then used the judges' equipment to give a full score, and then lowered his head to taste the food.
Fortunately, the amount of food cooked by Shen Chu was that of Ganggang, and although there were not many of the hundred judges assigned to each person, it was finally possible for one person to share a small plate the size of a fist.
"You take a closer look at this fish, this is a moon halo fish, tsk, this fish in the soup shows a halo of appearance, it is really a good situation, this dish can be said to have the color and flavor type, but also has a watchable artistic appearance, this fish fillet rippling in the soup is like a moon, it is very beautiful. ”
A judge found that the sauerkraut fish fillet cooked by Shen Chu was different, and with the sauerkraut in it, it seemed that there was a little black and green on the fish fillet, and the taste was fresh and sour, spicy and numb, which was a unique dish.
Fortunately, this is not in the forest galaxy, and people on the side of the Silver Phantom Star also eat spicy, and basically all the dishes of the subordinate star fields can be found here, and all kinds of unique delicacies are available.
After all, the ingredients on each planet are different, which means that the cooking method is different, and the taste is completely different.
It can be said that just the sum of the ingredients in the star fields under the Silver Illusion Nebula can make people not have the same every meal every day, and they can't eat all of them for tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years, and they are completely countless ingredients, all of which are different.
That's not even counting the recipes, if they are different, then there are more, but people in this universe don't like to use spices very much, like those mountain miscellaneous spices that are available on the earth, although this universe says that they have found substitutes, but they have never used them again.
I don't know why, but Shen Chu was a little skeptical, whether it was because this was a cultivation civilization, and doctors like Chinese medicine couldn't develop.
Even if you are sick, you can either treat it with high-tech or find an alchemist to treat it, which is convenient, simple and fast.
It was impossible for alchemists to cook, although they all knew a lot about the various plant-type genius earth treasures.
is also said, if you have the talent of a chef and awaken the profession of a chef, then who will go to cultivate immortals and learn alchemy, it's not that cultivating immortals has no future, but it's too boring.
If you don't understand how to cultivate immortals, you are practicing in retreat for a few months, or even tens or hundreds of years, even if it is alchemy, it will take several months to practice once.
As for the chef, it is to study the ingredients and recipes, and then if you are promoted, you are waiting for your body to integrate and adapt to the new realm, and the process of adaptation is continuous cooking, which is the method of the chef's practice to consolidate the realm.
When Shen Chu first came over, he didn't understand why these chefs' cooking methods were so monotonous, either barbecuing, frying, frying, and boiling.
It's so strange that I don't even know how to use the seasoning.
But then Shen Chu figured it out, look at the ancient times of foreign countries on the earth, when the food preparation method of Huaxia was not passed on, what did they eat?
There is only bread and roast meat and boiled meat, and a little salt is added to the meat, and there is no other seasoning at all, why is this?
But ancient China is different, in fact, there was no seasoning at the beginning of ancient China.
These seasonings are actually a kind of Chinese herbal medicine, such as garlic, ginger, Sichuan pepper, green onion, these are not vegetables, all of them have medicinal effects.
In ancient China, it was not the chefs who first used spices to cook dishes, but traditional Chinese medicine, and all the dishes cooked were medicinal foods.
Because food is not a joke, how can the chefs in ancient times know what and what to match not to eat, but Chinese medicine knows, because in the past, ancient Chinese medicine had to be familiar with the attributes of all herbs, so that what and what to match and what effect, they are clear at a glance.
Therefore, after Shen Chu came to this world, although he saw that these chefs were very familiar with the ingredients, he really did not know much about those seasonings.
This world is no joke, you can't mess around with things you don't know.
Shen Chu had found the same green onions, ginger, and garlic in the wild as on the earth before, and he had transplanted them into the space, at least he didn't have to spend his own kitchen god coins to buy seeds.
The spices he found were all level 1-3, and they were also at the level, and there were some other herbs that were also at the level, but some herbs could not be used for alchemy, so those alchemists didn't know what these herbs were used for.
Sometimes the alchemists themselves will recognize some herbs as ingredients.
Not to mention the chef, although the chef said that he can use the identification technique in the general skill to identify the ingredients.
However, if these things are eaten alone, they are not poisonous and harmless, and if something is added that should not be added, it will be a deadly thing.
This is not a joke, the ingredients and herbs that enter the level are all things that are more spiritual and more powerful, and it is possible that the ingredients of level 3 and the herbs of level 3 can put down the strong people of level 5-6.
So these things are very taboo in this world, and the unknown is the most terrifying.
Tiandao will not remind you whether this dish is poisonous or not, as long as this dish reaches the level it should have, Tiandao will not care if you are poisonous or not, and all of them will pass the classification review.
In fact, Shen Chu's thoughts are only part of the reason, although the identification technique is magical, it can actually only identify the information of the ingredients that are already known.
For example, after a person discovers a new ingredient, as long as he completely understands the various attributes of this ingredient, he can go to the Kitchen God Tablet and report it to Tiandao to back up the data.
In this way, you can get the reward of the Heavenly Dao, and you can also benefit the entire human race.
In fact, there are many family forces that will not report to the Heavenly Dao even if they find a kind of ingredient, so they will increase the foundation of their own family and forces, and only those who are loose cultivators, lone wanderers, and adventurers will report to the Heavenly Dao to receive rewards.
Speaking of the rewards that this report gives to the Heavenly Dao, there are also many benefits, such as spiritual stones, spiritual weapons, and even exercises rewarded, and the Heavenly Dao is still very generous.
So why don't chefs in this world use spices?
It's because there was a very tragic story that happened, which Shen Chu didn't know, maybe only those high-level Terran people knew.
Here's the thing, the universe is so big, there are so many planets, it is conceivable that even if human beings look the same, it must be a lot, not to mention those flowers and trees, fish, insects, birds and beasts in nature, and it is normal for them to have exactly the same ingredients.
It can't be said that it is exactly the same, but it is an extra leaf, an extra tendon or something, and some people can't recognize it at all.
