In the second round, the showdown of the main course.

The main course, as the name suggests, is the main and most important dish in the banquet, and it is really about filling the diners, not just enjoying the delicious dishes.

Since the main dish had already been prepared with the appetizer within the time limit, Liu Yuan and Emiya Shirou were able to serve it out immediately.

When they came out of the kitchen, the two of them carried the same tray as before, only this time there were five plates with lids, and they had to push the food cart to bring out five dishes.

"Sa, it seems that the two contestants are already in place, who will present the dishes first this time," Tamamo said.

"I'll do it first." Emiya Shirou said first.

Liu Yuan was stunned for a moment and hooked the corners of his mouth.

He's smart, and after the judges ate his pot of meat, his hunger should have been forcibly amplified by now, and he would definitely have an extra impression on the second dish he ate later.

Not to mention that the five Heroic Soul judges are not strictly speaking professional food judges, and this conference is not held by professionals, not even the pickled ginger slices that reset the sense of taste, and after eating two dishes in a row, the one with a heavy taste will definitely leave a deep impression on the judges, and even affect the subsequent scores.

But Liu Yuan is not in a hurry, what about giving this little cheap to the palace hero, he has full confidence in his cooking.

Moreover....... Haven't you heard that phrase?

In the food fan, the first to go to the first will lose!

Emiya Shirou pushes the dining cart.

"Oooh! Shirou Emiya has moved and is heading towards the stage! This time, what kind of amazing works will this newcomer bring us, Wang! ”

"This dish is a bit special, I hope you don't mind." Emiya Shirou said as he carried the tray from the dining cart to the judges' table.

"Oh? Special, Wang? The tamamo cat wagked its tail, "This seems to be more exciting, sniff...... Wait, I smell it, it's .......!? ”

A wondrous smile tugged at the corner of Emiya's mouth, and he lifted the lid in front of Alice Field, and a burst of steam rose.

At a glance, the plate was red.

The judges were dumbfounded, and the tamamo cat jumped back two steps with her nose covered.

"Mapo tofu, please taste it."

"What——?!" Liu Yuan's face changed suddenly, "It's actually Sichuan cuisine!" ”

Sichuan cuisine, also known as Sichuan cuisine, is one of the eight major cuisines of Chinese cuisine.

Sichuan cuisine has a very obvious feature - that is, spicy! Very spicy! The spicier the better!

If you are not from Chengdu, go to the Sichuan store and tell the boss that it is a little spicy, and he promises you a little spicy, and then after serving the food, you will find that the whole dish is so red that it seems to be on fire.......

For Chengdu people, this level seems to be 'light spicy', and the author, who is used to Cantonese food, has never tried the so-called 'normal spicy' of Chengdu people, and the day he eats it may be the day he dies........

Spicy is a pain sensation that numbs the taste buds. The spiciness, to a certain extent, after eating a dish, you can't feel the taste anymore, only a burst of hot sensation on the tip of the tongue.

Judging from the color of this plate of mapo tofu presented by Emiya Shirou, this dish may have reached this standard.

If there is no stronger flavor to break through the fortress it has formed, then Liu Yuan, who is behind, will be no different from defeat.

'It was just an appetizer before, the real game is only now beginting....... That's what you mean to say, Shirou Emiya. ’

Liu Yuan gritted his teeth and looked down at the tray on his dining car.

To be honest, he didn't expect that Shirou Emiya, who was born in the extreme east, didn't play Japanese food or Western food, and actually took out Liu Yuan's best Chinese food, and was ruthlessly scolded.

His confidence in victory was somewhat shaken.

The only hope is that the five judges' taste buds are resilient enough to attenuate the effects of the spiciness before he serves it, otherwise.......

"Sa, please taste it, Chinese Sichuan cuisine, mapo tofu!" Emiya Shirou said in high spirits.

After Emiya Shirou lifted the lid, the cafeteria fell silent for a moment.

Cut into boxy cubes, the tofu is shiny and crystal clear, with small pieces of offal and chopped onions and garlic in between.

If it weren't for the devil's red that drowned out a small half of the dish, it would have looked a little more delicious........

But there are also many newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, such as Alice Field, a guy who has never seen Sichuan cuisine, who is more curious than afraid, staring at the plate of mapo tofu in front of him with shining eyes, and is not afraid of being steam to the eyes.......

"Really, really....... What about the beautiful color....... Wang ......." Yuzao Cat looked at the plate of red in front of her with some timidity, pinched her nose, and said tremblingly: "If Ben Meow remembers correctly, mapo tofu should be a Chinese dish, right?" Speaking of Chinese food, this is our Master's area of expertise, why did you come up with the idea of doing this? ”

"There's no why, I think of it and I do it." Emiya Shirou squinted his eyes, and his mouth was insincere.

He naturally wanted to make trouble for Liu Yuan, but it seemed that there was no city government to say this in public, and to put it simply, he was afraid of being beaten........

"That'....... Can you tell us about this dish? ”

Ever since Shirou Emiya first took the stage to introduce the French sandwich, it seems that it has become customary to listen to the contestants talk about the dishes before tasting them.

"Yes, but the provenance of this dish is not really special." Emiya Shirou coughed and began to speak: "Mapo tofu was founded in the first year of Tongzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1862). On the side of Wanfu Bridge in Chengdu, there is a store formerly known as "Chen Xingsheng Rice Shop". Chan has a unique set of cooking techniques for cooking tofu, and the tofu she cooks is full of color, aroma, and taste, which is deeply loved by people, and the roasted tofu she created is called "Chen Mapo Tofu". In 1909, the "Chengdu Overview" published by the Chengdu Popular Newspaper listed this shop and "Chen Mapo's Tofu" among the 23 famous food stores in Chengdu along with Bao Xi Guan, Zhengxing Yuan, Zhong Tangyuan and other shops. ”

The late Qing Dynasty poet Feng Jiaji's "Jincheng Bamboo Branches" cloud: "Mapo Chen's is still famous, tofu baked to taste the most fine, Wanfu Bridge side curtain shadow, Hegu spring wine drunk Mr." As a result, mapo tofu has become famous far and wide, and now it has spread to the whole of China, and it also has an extraordinary influence in countries such as the extreme east. ”

"Oh" Tamamo clapped her hands with her pair of cat's paw gloves, "It's amazing, the origin of the previous 'Mr. Bite' is also the same, you remember so many stories!" ”

"Actually, I have a searcher in my head, and I follow it all."

"Meow!?"

"Hehe, just kidding, just have a good memory."

Seeing that Wei Gong Shirou still had fun joking, Liu Yuan was even more angry.

An island man uses Chinese food to deal with him, a native Chinese snake? Wait and see! I want to talk to more like-minded people
