021: Special Seasoning Secret
Toss and seasoning, the dividing line between the two factions, Maha doesn't know how many people can recognize clearly, after learning so many unique skills, at least in the chef circle he knows, there is no such genius for the time being.
Maha himself has little culture, but he can clearly analyze what the difference is.
Toss Pie is constantly processing the ingredients, and a lot of time is wasted on the ingredients, which improves the taste, satisfying the teeth, masseter muscles, and the touch that slides through the throat when swallowing.
The seasoning pie based on big wood has no requirements for the food itself. Otherwise, you won't even be able to eat that kind of meat, as long as the food is cooked, the taste of the spice stimulates the tongue and mouth.
It is estimated that not many cooks will be like Maha, in order to make their own cooking more delicious, they do not study the ingredients, but the structure of the mouth and tongue.
If the chef world is a ten-step platform, Maha can feel that ordinary people stand on one or two steps, and the second level is considered talented.
All the chefs of Red Star are probably standing on the second or third steps, among which the unique chef is about the third step, and occasionally there are three or four unique dishes of the chef, who can barely step on the four steps.
Da Mu is a military chef, the starting point is at the junction of the third and fourth floors, and after Da Mu relied on his own strength to go up to the junction of the fifth and sixth floors, he gave up cooking.
And Maha is now standing at the junction of the fifth and sixth floors, how to walk compared to the last three steps above that Damu himself can see.
One has given up, but the other wants to go up and have a look.
Ma Ha can clearly feel that he continues to take the strengths of a hundred schools, and the gap between him and Damu in the future is only one order, and the seventh order is the peak, and to maintain this peak, he needs to rely on Damu's seasoning.
Ma Ha wants to be glad that his mother Ma Qi still has Damu, and Damu pays unconditionally in cooking, but the military chef does not mention Damu on how to refine seasonings.
Some of the spice bottles that I thought other cooks had were actually only available in my own red kitchen.
Maha found out that the reason for this was that the cook who had bullied his mother Ma Qi paid to ask him what he looked like.
Maha naturally won't say it, but the other party paid for it. remembered that her mother Ma Qi had suffered a loss, so she wanted to let the other party suffer too.
went to the other party's kitchen and showed the other party how Crimson cooked. Only then did I realize that there were no seasonings on the table at all.
And these spice bottles have always been placed on the table without hesitation in the back lake of the Red Hotel, stained with oil as if they were worthless.
Knowing this, Maha observed and realized that after the seasoning ran out, Damu would always disappear mysteriously for a long time.
Maha didn't dare to follow, knowing that this was respect.
Of course, Maha knows better that only by being able to make these spices can he truly embark on the seven stages. And through the study of seasonings and the taste of ingredients, I stepped on the eighth, ninth and even tenth steps all the way, and truly overlooked the insignificance of this world as a kitchen god from a high place.
During this time, Maha has been secretly observing Damu, and even thought about letting his mother take action.
It is clear that Mama Qi's spy organization is very effective against people outside, but it is also clear that Damu should also know about this.
Therefore, it is really difficult to use it on Oki, and it is difficult to set out the secret of seasoning production, and if it is detected, it is possible that there will be no more opportunities in the future.
Maha has two ideas, either to attack Da Mu, or to bypass Da Mu and find other military chefs to solve this problem.
The military kitchen is almost unattainable, and the understanding of the world.
The military chefs of the three planets of red, yellow and blue also have differences in seasonings.
And all the military cooks, except for those who escaped and were not caught, were in the army.
Da Mu once said that he had tasted the seasoning of the Blue Star, and during the war years, it was common to confiscate weapons and tools after killing local soldiers, and Da Mu said that the seasoning of the Blue Star focuses on a divergent taste, and using too much will make the tongue numb. Damu called it fresh, and just listening to the description made Maha yearn.
Da Mu also asked Maha to summarize Huang Xing's seasoning by himself, Huang Xing focuses on stimulation, and the seasoning can be felt without even entering the mouth. Ohki explains that this stimulation is spicy!
And Red Star rarely participates in wars and should have its own system. I heard that rubbing is a sense of pleasure, that is, the taste of happiness, so it is easier to surrender than the warriors of Blue Star and Yellow Star who have a strong sense of satisfaction.
Da Mu didn't say much, especially these golden sentences Maha remembered in his heart.
And according to Oki's meaning, ordinary cooks have actually discovered a special seasoning flavor, that is, the salty flavor that already exists in the ingredients.
When Maha was twenty-seven years old, his mother Ma Qi rushed into the kitchen in a hurry and asked, "Can you cook flower rice?" ”
Ma Ha looked up and his eyes lit up, and he looked at Da Mu, who was busy working beside him.
Da Mu shook his head: "Now you will have more than me, why don't you go out and see who is finding fault?" ”
Maha and Damu both walked out of the kitchen, and it was the busiest time, and the customers waved to the two of them one by one.
Seeing this scene in the eyes of the man sitting alone, he pointed to the older Damu and asked, "This is Crimson himself?" ”
The old patrons shook their heads: "Where is it, this is Damu!" Next to him is the proprietress son Maha. They're all for Crimson, even if the name of the dish you report is really fresh, it's not enough for Crimson to come out to see you. ”
"That's it!"
Fortunately, there were old customers who accosted them, which stabilized the scene a lot.
It felt like Crimson patting two cooks out to ask, so as not to embarrass Crimson herself.
Da Mu's hand carried Maha's back and muttered quietly: "This man, the army!" It's not our Yellow Star's, it's more like your Red Star's! ”
Ma Ha listened to Da Mu's statement, and after a closer look, it was true that the man in front of him was sitting in an unusual manner.
In peacetime, soldiers have a service life.
The sight in front of me was that the Red Star, who was born in the slums, had a soldier who had returned to the slums and came to the Red Hotel with the military pay to try Crimson.
The young soldier said slowly: "That crimson doesn't come out, what are you two helping the cook to do?" ”
I have to find the bottom of the steps, since Da Mu saw the identity of the other party, Ma Ha at this time continued the other party's words and said: "Hello, the red heard that you asked for flowers and rice and let us come out and ask, but before that, I said that I would like to thank you for protecting our red star!" ”
Maha's voice was particularly loud, and the young soldier at this time blushed with shame, and his four hands were at a loss, one scratching his head and the other scratching his arm.
There was obviously chattering around them, and the old customers added fuel and vinegar.
"Guard? O soldiers! I'll just say, how to sit upright. ”
"This red color is absolutely amazing, when you hear the flowers, you know it's a soldier!"
The applause and cheers were endless, and Maha spoke again: "Then let's ask which area you usually guard in, you know that the Red Star Land is rich and rich." The plants are different everywhere, and the flowers are also different, so regional differences can affect the taste. If we don't know the region, we can't make the same flowers, and if it's too far, we can't collect the same flowers. ”
As soon as these words came out, the old customers of Red knew that this Red was 100% good at cooking this dish.
But only Maha has no bottom in his heart, and it is completely conjecture to be able to say these words. Because the soldiers don't have time to eat at all, that is, they find food as much as they can. So flower rice, as the name suggests, is likely to be the plant and flower with the most red stars, is it delicious to mix such things together to make rice? Obviously, it's hard to swallow, but the reason for the relative deliciousness is the red star seasoning that Oki once said, that is, the taste of happiness.
The young soldier bowed his head: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come to make trouble." Our captain is our military cook, and I miss him when he died, and we garrisoned the White Rock Waterfall, where white flowers bloom all year round. The sap that falls from the flowers can turn the stones white. It looks like a waterfall, hence the name. It's a long way from here, and I'm sure I can't make it, so I'd like to try Crimson. As long as it's a flower meal, I'll eat it all! ”
As soon as these words came out, Maha immediately bowed.
Maha tried out the words he wanted in a few words, and amid applause and cheers, Maha and Damu returned to the kitchen.
The two of them looked at each other, obviously still having a hard time.
I know what the flower rice looks like, but I don't know how to make the seasoning.
Maha only has the Yellow Star Seasoning that stimulates the hot taste, and there is no Happy Red Star Seasoning.
Da Mu took out a scimitar and said, "Ten minutes, I'll go out and pick some flowers around the tavern." Even if it's not delicious, as long as you say that this place is surrounded by slums, this is the taste of bitterness, and the other party, as a soldier, will eat all the soil in front of so many people. ”
"The seasoning? With a yellow star's? Maha asked.
"Let's use the spicy flavor we have! What else can I do? "Ohki hardly thinks about it.
"Will it work?" Maha was a little confused.
"I really can't do it, with my mouth. You probably don't know, eloquence is also part of the cuisine. Da Mu said the golden sentence again.
"Eloquence, too?" Maha heard this for the first time.
Da Mu leaned against the back door of the kitchen and smiled: "There is an allusion in our Yellow Star Army, when the blitzkrieg Tu Zegan was done. The entire yellow sand no-man's land is thousands of kilometers, and the soldiers are hungry and thirsty. The commander took the map and knew that the destination was not far away, but there was no glimmer of hope in the yellow sand all around. At this time, the chief pointed to a place that did not exist in the distance and asked if everyone had seen the sea buckthorn tree, but everyone did not see it, but the chief swore that there was one ahead. When the time comes, after beating the enemy, drink sea buckthorn juice happily. With these words, the soldiers, who were already unable to do it, kept their saliva and sprinted with all their strength to win the battle. Although he knew that there was no sea buckthorn at all, this incident had become a typical case in the army, and basically every Yellow Star soldier knew that he wanted thorns to quench his thirst. ”
"That's eloquence, it's part of good food." Maha was thoughtful.
Without saying much, Oki walked out of the kitchen.
Ten minutes later, Damu walked back, holding a bamboo basket with a smile on his face.
There are all kinds of flowers in it, but they are generally red.
The most red stars are safflowers, and it is indeed rare to see so many flowers in the White Stone Waterfall alone.
But it was too far away from what the soldiers said, and there was really no way to go to the scene to pick flowers.
I put the flowers in the pot and stir-fried, knowing that I couldn't have that much time to cook an ingredient. It is also impossible for plants to last that long to cook, so the flame and time are kept to a minimum and shortest.
After sprinkling the spicy seasoning, Maha covered the red flower rice on the plate.
"Can this be done?" Maha looked at the completely different plate of openings in front of him.
Da Mu grabbed a plate and stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it for a while and said: "It tastes good, but it's obviously not what the other party wants, go up, rely on your eloquence." ”
Maha walked out with the food, and this time the applause was even more enthusiastic.
"Look, so will the flower rice."
"Crimson is invincible!"
Ma Ha put the plate on the table and handed it to the young recruit in front of him and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help you go to the White Stone Waterfall to get white flowers for a while." If you need to, you can make an appointment in advance. And these are the flowers picked near here, and you know that the flower cake has something to do with the location. You can taste it first and then tell me what you tasted. ”
The young soldier grabbed the spoon on the table, shoveled it into his mouth and chewed it, and after a moment opened his mouth and fanned the wind with his three hands, obviously he had never eaten anything so spicy in his life. But the next second, he realized that he was making a fool of himself, so he quickly suppressed it and ate it in a big gulp, holding back the spicy.
The old patron on the side asked with a smile: "I haven't eaten it, I am full of energy after eating!" ”
"This is my hometown, the taste is different, it turns out that my hometown is this taste." Tears welled up in the corners of the young soldier's eyes.
The old customers on the side were excited: "I also want to eat flower rice!" ”
"Give us a copy too!"
Ma Qi went behind Maha and whispered, "Can you do it?" How is it priced? ”
"Vegetarian dishes are a little higher, no more than meat dishes." Ma Ha replied, and Ma Qi hurriedly stepped forward to register the category.
Ma Qi registered the needs of this position, and Ma Ha took the time to lean down and approach the young soldier and asked, "My personal curiosity, what does Baihua's flower rice taste like?" ”
In the name of the individual, this will not affect Crimson's worth.
The young soldier looked at Maha, closed his eyes and thought for a moment: "Sweet, if there are no civilians from the other two planets wandering, where and the black marketeers resell, where should it be a carefree fairyland!" There was no war, and there was no death of my captain. ”
"Silence." Maha nodded in agreement, then got up to leave.
Only those who don't understand will combine food and artistic conception. Although everyone agrees with this statement, it does not actually exist.
Maha also succeeded in bringing out the taste of Red Star's military kitchen seasoning, which is sweet.
Maha thought about telling Oki about it and seeing if Oki could imitate the sweetness.
In the back kitchen, Maha told the story one by one.
Damu smiled: "I knew it was done when I cheered outside." ”
Ma Ha pointed to the question again: "Da Mu, you only taught me to be a chef, and I didn't teach me about this thing of seasoning, and I understand that I won't learn your last skill." But do you know how to make spicy spices, and are you interested in trying your own research on how to create sweetness? Do you even ask about the taste of Blue Star and debug it? Can't win on the battlefield, at least in terms of cooking skills, make the other party embarrassed? ”
Da Mu became emotional at this time: "Who said that he didn't win!" ”
"I'm sorry!" Maha immediately apologized, knowing that he had hit Oki's sore spot.
If people are happy most of the time, they will occasionally worry about their livelihood.
So Damu is no longer worried about his livelihood, but he has never been happy.
I even checked a lot in private, and I should have a disease when I got Damu.
A condition called post-traumatic stress disorder, emotional detachment, numbness, escapism, loss of interest in everything.
Because he wanted to get the secret recipe for the seasoning, Maha secretly investigated Damu.
At this time, these words are also words that have been prepared for a long time, just to rekindle Damu's interest.
"Spicy, umami, sweet, and common salty?" Big wood belly mutters to himself.
"What?" Maha didn't hear what Damu said.
Da Mu reacted: "The four common seasonings are also the secrets of the military chefs of the three planets. What do you apologize to me? By the way, I've got a bit of something to do during this time. I didn't come to the meal so busy, can you bear it? ”
"I can bear it! You can definitely bear it! Maha said excitedly, knowing that Damu had something to do.
Even if he doesn't know how to concoct secret recipes, as long as he can get supplies, Maha can stand on a higher level.
