Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Qianyou Xiaya looked at Liu Maoxing who was using the "Soymilk Maker" and said, "What is he doing?"

"It seems to be grinding beans? It should be tofu or soy milk." Xiangtian speculated.

"Huh? Tofu? There's even freshly ground tofu... Could it be that the main ingredient in his cooking is tofu?" Qianhua Xiaya asked suspiciously.

Ruishan explained at this time: "It's very possible! According to the rules of the competition, if you use ready-made tofu, you can only use ordinary tofu. Since contestant Liu Maoxing only brought soaked beans, and then ground them on the spot, I guess it’s because it’s not ordinary tofu!”

"Well, if tofu is not used as the main ingredient, it would not be worth the delay for so long!" Kosaka nodded.

"Speaking of tofu, the topic is 'Curry', and contestant Liu Maoxing is good at Chinese cuisine, so it should be 'Mapo Tofu'?" Xiangtian speculated.

"Indeed, the taste of mapo tofu is numb, spicy, hot, and salty. As long as the use of spices is enhanced, it can be regarded as a curry dish, but... I always feel a bit ordinary." Kosaka Tanshou said.

The ingredients of Mapo Tofu are simple, and as one of the most accepted dishes in Chinese cuisine, it is indeed not new to everyone.

"Wait, if you make tofu, you should use soybeans, right?" Qian Wuxia Ya frowned.

At this time, the judges noticed that Liu Maoxing had prepared black beans and ground them!

"Maybe it's some kind of innovation..." Kata speculated.

However, Liu Maoxing's production process this time is really boring. It is completely lacking in the various stunts that Xiangtian saw when he was the judge of him and Misaku Subaru Shiji last time. Fill up six small wooden boxes for pressing tofu, and start the final step of making tofu After "pressing", they began to tinker with various spices.

First, the most basic chili and pepper oil are heated and pressed, and then include star anise, fennel, peppercorns, cinnamon and other common spices in Chinese cuisine, as well as dill, basil, bay leaf and other spices that are more common in Western cuisine. A slightly different process was carried out...

Nearly an hour after the start of the competition, the "battle" had already begun, because the topic was "Curry Cuisine", so before the finished product was presented, the smell of various spices had already dispersed on the field, and they were fighting each other!

Although the judges didn't have Ye Shan's sense of smell, nor did they have Liu Maoxing's "Super God's Tongue", but with experience, at least they could judge which players had the advantage at this time.

In about an hour and twenty minutes, less than half of the stipulated three hours, there was already the first student who presented the dish to the five judges for review.

Everyone was not surprised. This was expected. After all, many curry dishes do not require three hours of cooking time.

It would be bad if they were all assembled in the last half hour. After all, there are forty contestants in a competition area. It takes at least one minute for each dish to be tasted and scored. If it is an excellent dish, one minute is far from enough .

But this situation cannot happen. After all, although the cooking time of the first dish is shorter, it has a "pioneer advantage".

The scoring system competition is different from the "Food Halberd", the judges' appetite is limited, and it is this kind of heavy-tasting curry dish, the "pioneer advantage" should be obvious.

But whether it is Liu Maoxing or Ye Shanliang, they already have a premonition of their scores!

Because Ha Shanliang's "Curry Fish Head Soup" has not yet added the last few spices, the impact of the smell has not yet reached its peak. Judging from the smell on the field, it is completely "separatist".

Ryo Hayama and Liu Maoxing, who have the sense of smell of gods, have already judged from the smell that the strongest people should be: Mito Yumei, Sakaki Ryoko, Marui Zenji, Ibuzaki Jun, Misaku Subaru...

In addition, there are still things that cannot be judged now. The cuisines of Liu Maoxing and Xingping Chuangzhen don’t seem to emit any fragrance yet, and the cuisines of Ryo Hayama and Ryo Kurokiba, at this time, the fragrance is only at the level of "heroes", obviously It's not at the final stage yet!

The others can only be said to be "average people", and they are not bad among ordinary students.

The first student who tried to present the dish obviously had no "pioneer advantage" and only scored 12 points!

Not only did the four judges, including Xiang Tian and Gang Ban, give only single-digit scores, but Xia Ya ruthlessly slapped him on the face with a zero egg!

At the beginning, the audience laughed at the first student, thinking it was because he was eager for success, but the food was so unpalatable. But among the next dozen or so students, only three scored more than 20 points, and the highest was only 22 points. And Xia Ya hasn't given a score other than 0 until now. Only then did I understand how high the standards of the judges are!

The host of ceremonies Sasaki Yuai, who was originally timid and timid, now stood there in embarrassment. The bleak atmosphere of the arena brought about by the low score made her feel a little at a loss.

"En? Subaru Misaku, whose cooking are you imitating now?" Liu Maoxing asked suspiciously.

The sudden sound startled Subaru Misaku, who was cooking seriously, and realized that at some point, Liu Maoxing was already standing behind him!

Originally, Sasaki Yuai wanted to stop Liu Maoxing's behavior of "disturbing" other players, but seeing Subaru Misaku himself had no objection, and thinking that Liu Maoxing usually took care of herself, he was entangled in his heart and did not speak...

"This time I 'tracked' myself!" Subaru Misaku said energetically.

"Okay, your appearance is not suitable for being cute...and since you are ready to innovate yourself, then don't mention 'tracking' anymore." Liu Maoxing said.

Because of Subaru Misaku's behavior of "stalking by idiots", everyone nicknamed him "Stalker". However, since he was defeated once by Liu Maoxing, Subaru Misaku had changed his gender and was in a state of depression. In short, Yuanyue Academy There is one "idiot" missing.

"No, it's not to stop the 'tracking' and 'simulation', but the object has become myself!" Misaku Subaru said.

"Huh?" Liu Maoxing didn't understand what he meant.

"Speaking of which, I would like to thank you for what you said to me before the holiday... Let's try it later! I made six servings!" Subaru Misaku said confidently.

Liu Maoxing thought for a long time before recalling that before he was going to go to Northern Europe with Alice, Misaku Subaru suddenly pestered himself to ask why he said that cooking was interesting. Shinomiya Kojiro and Tian Suohui both said it, the classic line of Lan Feihong told him: "If you don't know what's interesting, just think about your origin as a cook!"

Seeing Subaru Misaku's serious face, Liu Maoxing really couldn't tell him: I just said it casually, don't take it to heart!

At the same time, I prayed silently, hoping that he would not go mad, even if he did, he would be innocent...

"Ah Xing, is it really okay for you to relax so much? You don't need to watch the fire?" Yu Mei who was on the side asked doubtfully.

"It doesn't matter, at this point, before my cooking is presented, there is only one step of 'waiting'...Huh? Are you the ultimate meat this time?" Liu Maoxing glanced at Yu Mei's cooking.

"What is this time? Isn't it the same every time?" Yu Mei asked puzzled.

"Ahem, it's nothing..." Liu Maoxing concealed the past, because of her own influence, Yu Mei concentrated on cooking meat, and with the care of her "Super God Tongue", she is now stronger than before!

Ye Shanliang was two rows behind, turned his back to Liu Maoxing and said, "It's so relaxing! Do you think that the first place in the preliminaries is already in your hands? But the atmosphere before was indeed a bit more relaxed. Now let me add fuel to the fire!"

As Ye Shanliang said, he sprinkled the last handful of leafy spices he had prepared into the pot, and instantly the aroma that was originally separated from other "heroes" rose to a higher level, as if people could hear the voice of a golden horse and an iron horse, Destroyingly tore the few fragrances that were originally juxtaposed with him to pieces!

At the judges' table, Qianyou Xiaya, who had originally dismissed all the cooking of more than twenty students in a row, couldn't help but groaned softly.

After that, he said awkwardly: "It seems, it seems that there are some dishes worth looking forward to..." He said and stared at Ye Shanliang.

However, Ha Shanliang's cooking was divided into two parts, and the staple food of the dish, baked naan, was not finished yet. Therefore, after arousing the appetite of the judges, the work was not presented immediately!

This made the next few students even more unlucky. Not only did Xia Ya give 0 points, but the scores of other judges were also lower!

Apparently, the judges have fallen into the expectation of Ye Shan's cuisine. Unless there is not too much inferior cuisine, otherwise the score will be lowered because of the sense of anticipation...

For a while, several other students who wanted to submit their works also hesitated, and the blank Kurokiba suddenly said: "Ah! It's so boring, then I'll go to review it quickly."

As he spoke, he placed his five dishes in front of the five judges, bowed his hands and said, "Please use it."

For Kurokiba, it was quite normal, but compared to other players, it seemed a bit out of courtesy.

Looking at the expressions of Qianyou Xiaya and the others, Liu Maoxing secretly complained: It's not a matter of lack of etiquette when he puts on the body in a while, but he will directly transform himself into a shaking S!

I saw Kurokiba's cuisine, which consists of a curry lobster and a bowl of yellow rice...

"This is...Ise lobster? You are one of the champions of the 'Seafood Pastry Contest', right? Sure enough, I chose seafood curry." Kosaka said.

But upon hearing his words, Kurokiba also twitched his face in a daze, as if he couldn't accept this kind of address, but the current "normal form" is not good at expressing emotions, so he directly put the turban on his wrist on his head .

The moment he put on the turban, Kurokiba's aura and eyes had fundamentally changed from before!

"Mustache! During the 'Seafood Pastry Contest', I was just that guy's assistant! Please make it clear to me that what is in front of you now is my own cooking!" Kurokiba said angrily.

"Small, mustache?" Xiangtian's beard trembled in anger...

"Okay, Mr. Xiangtian, let's try it quickly!" Kosaka said in a muddled manner.

"Then I will reluctantly taste it, and see if your 'assistant' dishes contain water that participated in the 'Hokkaido Seafood Pastry Competition'..."
