Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Curator Ochiai, haven't you caught a cold lately? Why do you still eat eels?" Horie Yue glanced at a bald middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties or fifties and had already put on weight.

This balding middle-aged man is the curator of the Hokkaido Food Exhibition Hall. In the exhibition hall, there are thousands of food specimens collected by him, including the signature dishes of hundreds of three-star restaurants all over the world!

That's right, after the dishes are prepared, special chemicals are used to fix the appearance of the dishes, and then they are placed in a vacuum glass cover...

Although Liu Maoxing's three views have been "distorted" almost, but still can't understand the significance of the existence of this kind of exhibition hall, but it is undeniable... There are indeed many people who visit it every year!

Now the curator Ochiai still wears a mask on his chin...

Why put a mask on your chin? Of course it was because the mouth was eating, so I pulled it down for the time being!

Normally, eel is a nutritious and irritating food, also known as "fat", so it should not be eaten when you have a cold.

"Well, I guess I won't be able to eat this big eel when I get better from the cold... At most, the inflammation is a little bit more serious, which can be overcome!" said the curator Ochiai.

"It makes sense." Jue Yue also seemed to agree.

"But I heard that another guy you've been optimistic about before... Is he the champion of the Hokkaido Seafood Noodle Competition? Do you still think so?"

What Director Ochiai said was unclear, but Yu Yue could understand what he meant, probably because the excellent performance of the "Central Gourmet Organization" has exceeded his expectations, so I don't think Liu Maoxing will be better...

Ryo Yue didn't refute anything, just said: "This is not a culinary duel or a food halberd. As long as he can cook pleasing dishes, it is already a 'success', and there is no need to compete with others... ..."

Erina's voice sounded in front of the display cabinet of the Central Gourmet Organization: "Humph, it's just so-so! The pinto bean ingredients in the mousse are a little less, and the taste is lacking in substance, and there are several kinds of thin fillings, which are far from enough. To achieve the best ratio...but that's all!" He also deliberately pretended to be dismissive.

If it was at Yuanyue Academy, because of the fear of Nakiriji, Erina would rarely disrupt the situation like this, and would never taste the cuisine of the "Central Gourmet Agency", but this time...Erina entered Ao Diao without any hesitation. model.

That's right, it's "Arrogant", there is no "Jiao" element at all, only a combination of bad and worse...

"Miss Erina! Please treat every dish fairly, and I will truthfully report the matter here to the general counsel!" Hiroi said with a smile.

Erina's face froze for a moment, and then she said immediately: "Hehe, I will tell grandpa too, someone should retire early... Oh, maybe you can get a job again in the 'Central Gourmet Organization'!"

Lian Nantaro couldn't help but said: "Miss Erina, it's okay for you to criticize our cuisine now, but if someone serves a dish that is not as good as ours, I'm afraid it will be embarrassing?"

At this moment, Liu Maoxing had already cooked the first batch of giant eel meat to the final step, and bursts of special aroma came over.

The eel meat sections in the eight small casserole were fished out one by one by Liu Maoxing. Afterwards, the broth in the small casserole was announced to be replaced with a new one. The used broth was directly poured out and replaced with new broth. section joins...

However, some people have noticed that the order of joining this time has been "sequenced" by one!

"Using so many kinds of soup rashly, the taste of the giant eel has been destroyed, right?"

"Not to mention the original ingredients, if you do this... I'm afraid all the tastes of the broth will affect each other."

"I don't think Shi Jie would make such a mistake!"

"Of course not...but this giant eel meat is very different from ordinary eel. It can be regarded as an ingredient that has never appeared before. It is like the first person to cook bear paws. What comes out is sure to break your teeth."

"Well, not to mention the first person to cook bear paws, it is said that in ancient China, where bear paw cuisine originated, there were several records of emperors killing cooks because bear paws were not cooked well... Those are all 'royal chefs' ’, should belong to the first-class cooks of that era, even they can make uncooked dishes, so it can be seen that the unorthodox ingredients are difficult for all cooks, and it is normal to make mistakes.”

"Wait...have you noticed that every time you change the soup and boil it, the smell will change!"

"That's right, although the description is not very clear, but it is true that the fragrance is becoming more and more uniform...but how is it possible?"

"Why is it impossible? When you usually cook some dishes that rely on spices, you often use more than eight kinds of spices..."

"Spices are spices. Do you want to say that he can control the coordination between eight kinds of broth? Do you understand how precise judgment and observation it requires?"

No matter how everyone discussed it, Liu Maoxing repeated the same steps eight times.

Every time it starts to boil again, a strong mixed seafood aroma will waft away...

And at the beginning, the scents became more and more mixed, but in the last few times, the scents began to integrate!

After eight times, each piece of eel meat has been boiled once in each of the eight kinds of broth.

The reason why the eight sections of meat are carried out together is only for the convenience and speed of cooking.

And in the end, each piece of meat, or strips of meat, has been boiled through eight procedures, and Liu Maoxing simply cuts them into pieces, and then puts each piece in a bowl, adding the clear soup that has been prepared a long time ago...

Each piece of meat was divided into six pieces, and that's it... Liu Maoxing's first batch of finished products, forty-eight servings of "Silver Dragon Meat", was ready and placed on his booth.

The moment the clear soup was added, an invigorating aroma came out from the showcase...

"Welcome to taste the 'Silver Dragon Meat', this is the first batch!" Liu Maoxing smiled.

"Dragon meat? Okay, what a breath." Hiroi muttered dissatisfiedly.

But at the same time, his complexion was not good-looking, because the vivid eel meat brought out by Liu Maoxing was shining with a white brilliance in the bottomless soup. On the "fragrance", it can't be seen that it is a failed product!

Immediately, under the nervous eyes of Hiroi, Lian Nantaro and others, many guests approached Liu Maoxing...

Now it's just "nervous", because Liu Maoxing is one of the top ten masters after all, it's normal for people to gather over after his cooking is finished.

What matters is everyone's reaction afterwards!

That is, whether Liu Maoxing's cooking is successful or not.

Not long ago, Hiroi Reiko, Lian Nantaro and others did not believe that Liu Maoxing would succeed, but now their confidence has been shaken.

It was actually too late for the others to get together, because the first batch was only forty-eight, most of which were taken away by the guests who had been waiting around, and a small number were taken by Horikoshi, who could go all out in order to taste the dishes first. The face was squeezed in, and the person who was embarrassed to squeeze him took it away...

Immediately, Hiroi Reiko and the people from the Central Gourmet Agency heard bursts of exclamations coming from Liu Maoxing's direction.

"Huh? Is it too unpalatable? Why doesn't it look like..." Lian Nantaro couldn't help but muttered while operating the device.

At this time, they were still preparing the second batch of eel meat. The first batch just now only had dozens of copies.

"This, this is... eel meat?"

"And what I just ate over there, is it really a kind of meat?"

"Whether it's texture or taste, it's completely different!"

"It's different from any dish I've ever tasted...could it be... really dragon meat?"

The first batch of diners who tasted it did not know if it was an illusion, not only in terms of taste, but also in all five senses seemed to have a "refreshing" freshness, as if the whole person was more energetic than before!

Logically speaking, Liu Maoxing should not have used the kitchen heart, because his "Chef's heart in the mirror" is a one-time copy after each copy, and it can only be copied when other cooks use the kitchen heart.

If Lian Nantaro and the others used the kitchen heart, Liu Maoxing could keep copying and using it, but now that the other party didn't use the kitchen heart, Liu Maoxing couldn't copy it.

At this moment, they seemed to feel that there was really a dragon waking up in their bodies, an illusion that they could use "Lushan Rising Dragon Tyrant"...

"It's amazing! I even feel like my cold has been cured! The previous discomfort symptoms have completely disappeared!" said the curator Ochiai.

"Ahem, calm down...don't be so loud, I don't want to be infected by you!" Ryo Yue avoided him.

This is indeed mostly due to psychological factors, just like "I can fight back", it is impossible to "bounce" the lesion out of the body in an instant... At least Liu Maoxing's "Silver Dragon Meat" can't do it now!

Of course, psychological adjustments are also good for getting rid of the lesions, as if sometimes being brave can really kill you...

"But it's really amazing. It's really the people from the 'Central Gourmet Organization' just now. Did they use the same eel meat? The positions they use seem to be similar. Why is there such a big difference in taste and texture?"

"This feeling... I've decided! I'm going to grab another bowl later!"

Many persistent gourmets are even prepared to "sacrifice quality" beside them. After all, in this kind of occasion, normally everyone will control it. After tasting it, they will give up the next opportunity to others...

But now it is obvious that some people have given up their morals, and those who did not get the first batch of "Silver Dragon Meat" naturally want to come closer now. For a while, most of the guests were attracted by Liu Maoxing!

Gradually, other people also discovered one thing, that is, people who tasted "Silver Dragon Meat" surprisingly did not compare it with "Avocado Eel Cake"...

When some people are really curious about the comparison between the two and ask about it, those who have tasted it will only tell him...there is no comparison at all, you will know it by yourself!

Faintly hearing similar conversations, Hiroi and the people from the Central Gourmet Agency gradually showed expressions as if they had eaten a fly...

Liu Maoxing was actually a little surprised. The current "Silver Dragon Meat" has reached the tiger level, and it has passed the two-star test without any problems. It even has the opportunity to challenge the three-star level. Liu Maoxing did not expect this before...
