Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Just after the five judges tasted one of Erina's western-style meatloaf, one fried pork with stick vegetables, and the last one with papaya snow clams, the judges were also puzzled...

The topic of the third round of the duel is "Chinese Heroes", and the theme of each dish must be the deeds of a hero!

But judging from these three dishes, the five judges didn't find any evidence of this...

"Is the presentation over? Indeed, we already know how delicious the dishes are, and then... Which hero are you expressing?" Tang Song really couldn't think of it, so he wanted Erina to say it himself. Then they judge whether they meet the requirements.

And at this moment, Erina smiled and said, "It's Mu Guiying!"

Mu Guiying, the world before Liu Maoxing traveled, should belong to the virtual character in the creation of folk art, but there are also textual researches that found Mu Guiying's tomb, and also found that in the Yang family tree, Yang Zongbao's wife is indeed "Mu", but She didn't appear in the historical materials.

But in this world, it seems to be confirmed that the real existence...

"Mu Guiying? How did you behave?" Tang Song asked.

But at this time, Master Xie had already reacted: "So that's it, the last line expresses 'Break through the Heavenly Gate Formation', right?"

"Break through the Heavenly Gate Formation?" Tang Song, Lei Yu, and Xin Hushou couldn't help but look at Papaya Xueha, not understanding what this had to do with the Heavenly Gate Formation!

On the contrary, Lin Yi seemed to see something, and smiled slightly, but didn't say it.

Master Xie explained: "It is said that during the Northern Song Dynasty, the Liao Kingdom gathered the power of 72 super chefs from all over the country and set up the Seventy-two Teams of Tianmen to block the national fortune of the Song Dynasty and reprimand the chefs of the Song Dynasty for their incompetence. Fortunately, Mu Guiying, a master chef , using 'Dragon Wood' as the food material, he led the chefs of the Song Dynasty to break through the Tianmen Formation, causing the Liao Kingdom to lose in cooking skills, and dared not speak lightly...

However, the record of "Jianglongmu" is unknown. Some people think it is a branch of "Liu Daozi", which means that Master Mu Guiying should be a master of medicinal food. There is also a saying that "Jianglongmu" refers to the 'Papaya tree', and Master Mu Guiying is the master of melon and fruit sweets.

This 'papaya snow clam' should be based on the saying that Jianglong Munai is a papaya tree... As for the snow clams are produced in Changbai Mountain, Changbai Mountain was the territory of the Liao Kingdom in the Northern Song Dynasty..."

Mourinho took Jianglongmu to break through the sky, which is well-founded and convincing!

Erina also nodded and said: "That's right, what I want to show in the third dish is Mu Guiying's breakthrough!"

"Wait, what about the first two dishes?" Tang Song asked.

That's right, it makes sense to use "Mu Guiying" as the title, but what deeds do the first two dishes represent?

Master Xie didn't rush to answer this time, only Lin Yi vaguely guessed something, but as the burden of Chef Long, it was really difficult for him to explain these things, and he just waited for Erina to announce it...

"The third dish of 'Papaya Snow Clam' has another name called 'Da Po Tian Men Zhen', and the first Western-style meatloaf has a name I specially chose for it, which is called 'Mourinho Forced Marriage'!" Erina said .

Mu Guiying, as the representative of a female hero who is not bound by etiquette and law, was adored by the people. At the beginning of her marriage with Yang Zongbao, she was tied up and forced to marry with swords and guns!

It can be called the first flash marriage and forced marriage model with women as the theme in history...

"Fucking marriage? That is to say, those lard oils symbolize the rope?" Lei Yu couldn't help grinning.

The characteristic of Erina's grilled meatloaf is that it uses pure lean meat, and then infiltrates it with unique pork net oil!

Pig net oil is used as the fat in the space between the pig's viscera. When it is cooled, it looks like a white net, so some dishes that need to be fixed in shape will also use this animal fat...

Erina also emphasized before that the outside of her meatloaf is covered with five layers of lard oil, which creates a rich sense of fat and explosive gravy...

"Early birth to a precious child" and the red thickening, obviously all imply that it is an event related to "marriage"!

The reason why there is a table knife and a braze in the tableware should also be imitation knives and guns...

Big tie? knife? gun?

It really looks like "Mourinho forced the marriage"!

"What about the second way? Does it have a real name?" Lei Yu asked in a strange tone.

"Of course! I call it 'sticking husband-in-law'! When Mu Guiying presided over the Tianmen duel, her husband Yang Zongbao refused to listen to his orders, so he was served with sticks... This is what I most admire about Mourinho, man? , Not only do you have to force sometimes, but sometimes you are not disciplined!" Erina seemed to be implying something.

And although the five judges were all men, none of them could be ashamed, and a 16-year-old girl came to defend the question "Do all men owe discipline?"

Afterwards, I coughed in embarrassment, and skipped this topic for now...

Moreover, several judges also knew that Erina's words were addressed to "certain people", so why would they bother to join in the fun?

Well, Stir-Fried Beef with Bangcai, and it's "cucumber strips" on the rump of the beef, and if you think about it... beef, beef, beef, Liu... very good, very reasonable...

"Ahem, then next, please invite Liu Maoxing, the representative of the main family, to present your own dishes!" Master Xie declared.

Although I just heard Erina's "Family Tradition (bao) Declaration", Liu Maoxing is not ready to resist...

After all, as a cook, cooking duel should be the first priority in my heart!

Liu Maoxing comforted himself in his heart.

Ignoring the provocation at all, Liu Maoxing directly placed the five drawers of the steamer in front of the five judges, and then handed the sixth drawer to Erina...

"Well, I saved some fried beef with stick vegetables for you, let's taste it after the duel." Erina said pretending to be arrogant.

"Huh? Isn't it called 'beating husband-in-law with a stick'?" Liu Maoxing instead emphasized the name of the dish she said just now in a low voice.

Sure enough, Erina blushed, and bared her teeth at Liu Maoxing after a light crack.

At this time, the judges had already urged Liu Maoxing to go...

"This is... small steamed bun? Could it be snake meat again?" Nii Hushou asked doubtfully.

"No, this time it's... hot and sour buns!" Liu Maoxing smiled.

"Hot and sour?"

While several judges were puzzled, some started directly, and some picked up a small steamed bun with chopsticks, brought it to their mouths and tasted it...

Boom!

Sure enough, Master Xie started to "rip his clothes" unsuccessfully again, but seeing the scale of his short-term muscle swelling this time, the Liu family couldn't help but feel a sinking heart, and Erina and Fei Shazi also frowned!

Although it can be said to be delicious if it can induce some incomplete effects of Master Chu Jie's "clothes torn", but the "clothes torn" caused by Liu Maoxing is obviously not as good as the scale caused by Erina before, and even Not as good as Liu Maoxing's performance in the first two rounds of cooking...

"What's going on? Could it be a mistake?"

"It's not good! It's weak when it comes up, and some..."

Before the eight elders of the Liu family could speak out their worries, the "situation" changed completely when they took a second bite after taking one bite!

Not only did several judges show expressions of having tasted the real delicacy, but their originally plain expressions suddenly became shocked, as if they had been shocked by some taste!

Moreover, Master Xie really put more effort into "clothes torn", and it expanded to a level that was not much inferior to Erina's cooking before...

"What, what's going on?" Many people in the audience were puzzled.

At this time, Niitomori also said: "So that's the case. At the beginning, I was still puzzled. It was said to be 'hot and sour buns'. Why do we only get the spicy flavor?"

While talking, Xin Hushou took another small steamed bun, put it on a plate and cut it in half from the middle...

I saw that in the center of the bright red stuffing, there was a piece of something the size of a pinky finger and a heavier color.

"What is this..." Some people in the audience were still confused.

Tang Song said directly: "Most of the fillings on the outside are meat and dried bean curd fillings similar to 'Ma Po Tofu', but in the center there is... It should be made from sour plum meat crumbs. the little ball!"

"When I tasted the 'spicy' taste at first, I felt that it was a bit monotonous as a pastry, but when I took a second bite of sour plum... hiss..."

It seems that this sour plum is really sour!

"The explosive sour smell immediately stimulated our senses, as if there were a few more generals in charge of the army that was originally leaderless!"

"That's right, hot and sour buns... It is when the 'sour and spicy' are combined that they can be considered to exert their true power."

"What? Wait... Since the sour plum meat is already in the stuffing, it's impossible that the sour taste hasn't leaked out? How could there be such a 'surprise' effect?"

"It's 'fried'... These chopped sour plum meat, after a few small pieces are formed into a small ball, is coated with a thin layer of starch, and then fried once in a frying pan to completely block the sour taste. "

"'Sour' and 'spicy' come and go one after another, the combination of 'you sing and I will come on stage' is the essence of this hot and sour bun... It is also a taste magic that is difficult for people other than super taste owners !” Master Xie finally said.

At the same time, Liu Maoxing also made use of the shape of "small steamed buns". Although the "first bite" is often the most important in cooking duels, the small steamed buns, which are not big and weigh about two bites, are not suitable for this kind of tasting task. On heavy occasions, Liu Maoxing also guessed that the judges would eat at least one whole one!

Especially when even the "incomplete" xiaolongbao has the "spicy" formula to enhance sexual desire...

And now the combination of hot and sour, in addition to its own taste enjoyment, also has a powerful effect of boosting appetite!

Afterwards, Liu Maoxing served the five judges the drinks he made himself...

After drinking this time, Master Xie did not appear to have too much muscle swelling.

But everyone is not surprised. Drinks are originally an aid to a meal. Although a proper choice of drinks can also play the role of finishing touch and icing on the cake, it is much more difficult to trigger "clothes ripping" alone than dishes!

"Hmm! Is it mixed fruit juice?"

"It really gives people a very refreshing feeling..."

"There are oranges, pears, dragon fruit, oranges..."

"There are also watermelons, bananas, tomatoes... etc., it seems that there are some special flavors, this is..."

"It's olive extract!"

"That's right, it feels pretty good, although I don't know what it has to do with the theme..."

Just like when they tasted Erina's dishes before, the five judges didn't ask Liu Maoxing how to enter the question first, but to see if they could guess the "Chinese hero" as the answer to the question after tasting it.

The third dish presented by Liu Maoxing was a famous Jinling dish... salted duck!

Salted duck, also known as sweet-scented osmanthus duck, is a kind of meat cold dish. The traditional craft emphasizes "cooked salt, old marinated, blown dry, and boiled enough", that is, the salt should be fried in advance, and the marinated material is He attaches great importance to the "old stew", and believes that in the stew, the soluble components in the duck meat will be precipitated into the stew, and the older the stew, the more essence.

But Liu Maoxing naturally doesn't have any old brine. He stir-fries it together with various spices, including salt, and finally adds high-grade white wine. Bruised Duck...

Under Liu Maoxing's strength, the marinating time was also greatly shortened. Even though the fermented sweet-scented osmanthus duck was cooked now that it was cold, the judges could still smell the faint smell of wine!

"Oh! The aroma of the wine completely neutralizes the fishy smell of the duck meat, and the preparation of the spices also reflects the understanding of the duck meat!"

You must know that the first time Liu Maoxing ate a halberd, that is, the time when the opponent was Mito Yumei, the ingredient used was "duck meat"!

And the "Phoenix Eggs" made by Liu Maoxing back then was also a heavy-salt duck dish...

"The heat is also well controlled, completely softening the duck meat!"

"Obviously there is no 'old bittern', but the combination of spices and salt can achieve this level..."

There is also dipping sauce specially prepared by Liu Maoxing, which goes perfectly with the wine-scented duck meat!

Master Xie took advantage of the strength of the wine, as if he wanted to fight drunkenly...

“The sauce is equally important! It goes really well with this fermented sweet-scented osmanthus duck!”

"There's still time for marinating, ahem, okay... I just want to say that the technique of 'rubbing' is very special...We can talk about it later!" Master Xie said.

As a master figure in the culinary world said so, of course Liu Maoxing readily agreed.

"Actually, if you give me more time to think, I can do better! I plan to be like the 'Hand of the Eagle'. After perfecting this skill of catalytic pickling, I will also give it a name and pass it on as a unique skill. Get down!" Liu Maoxing said.

Most of the judges and the audience couldn't help but look weird. If Liu Maoxing knew, Master Xie thought of the scene of applying sunscreen to young girls on the beach, and I don't know what expression he would make!

"Honey, why are you blushing?" Leonora asked Zong Wei in the auditorium.

"Ahem, I was thinking, I must make this kid look good in the future! Yes, I'm still angry!"

There's no way, who made Liu Maoxing's previous actions be too imaginative, even at the beginning of the cooking, he attracted a lot of attention...

The fourth dish presented was the "beggar's chicken" that Liu Maoxing had just cracked open. Liu Maoxing had made similar dishes before, and it was a roasting method that used a lot of spices on the shell; The second round showed that the chicken was "roasted" in a similar way to beggar's chicken, and then grilled with tandoor charcoal to get the unique charred aroma of roasting.

But this time the "beggar's chicken" is close to the "primitive" cooking method, using a variety of precious Chinese medicinal ingredients to form the chicken filling...

Of course, since the "stuffing" method is used, then Liu Maoxing's "Eagle Hand" naturally once again made great achievements in removing internal organs and stuffing spices!

As for Liu Maoxing's technique, all the judges and audience were also taken aback!

Reminiscent of the previous method of rubbing ducks, Master Xie has made up his mind that he must have a good communication with Liu Maoxing in the future!

In terms of taste, Liu Maoxing's "Beggar's Chicken" also perfectly displayed the mellow flavor that "Beggar's Chicken" should have, and the crispy and soft taste.

Seeing that the muscles of Master Xie's whole body are still firm, and he doesn't seem to have entered the refractory period at all, he can understand.

The fifth dish presented was a pure white soup, and it was also a soup that Liu Maoxing had been busy cooking from the very beginning.

The ingredients of the soup are very simple, just ordinary crucian carp, but this is a dish that has been opened for five hours, kept boiling, adding water from time to time, no matter what Liu Maoxing is doing, he is always "monitoring" with his sense of smell A soup!

And before the presentation, they carefully filtered the residue and skimmed the oil. The soup served out was completely milky white, without any impurities at all. The five judges could even see their faces clearly in it!

"I didn't expect it to be cooked to the level of Tang Rujing! It seems that both the cooking time and the subsequent filtering are very serious." Tang Song couldn't help but sigh.

At the same time, I was wondering if that "Chinese hero" might have something to do with this reflection...

The sixth dish is fried chicken nuggets. Speaking of which, nearly a year ago, Liu Maoxing had a feud with Mozuya and Ruishan Zhijin because of "pancake fried chicken"...

And now the former has hired Liu Maoxing as a consultant, although the dividend is not as high as Erina's maintenance fee!

After all, it is very expensive to be a research and development cook. It is not that Liu Maoxing has not experimented with various ingredients and spices, and it is not that he has not worked hard.

Seeing that Jun Xijian, the spice master, has so many research and development achievements, she and Ye Shanliang's research meeting still relies so much on investors, so you can understand it!

As for the latter, Liu Maoxing has already selected the seat of the top ten. I don’t know if he will stay in the central food agency as a consultant after graduation...

This time, the chicken nuggets were made in the form of "toothpick meat", and after frying and before presentation, Liu Maoxing put toothpicks on them one by one to ensure that the judges would not get their hands stained with oil.

The last dish is barbecue...

He obviously didn't discuss it with Erina, but it has the same effect as her "Mourinho's forced marriage"!

What Liu Maoxing chose was also the "Niu Lin" part.

That is, a piece of lean meat on the hind leg of a cow. After trimming and removing the fat, it does not contain any fatty parts. It is known as the "essence" of lean meat!

But as we all know, pure lean meat is not very delicious when roasted...

Including the meat patties that Erina fried and roasted before, a lot of lard oil was also used to enrich the pure lean meat with animal fat.

But Liu Maoxing is just the opposite, choosing to use vegetable oil.

Erina's is a stuffed "meat pie", while Liu Maoxing's barbecue is a whole piece of Niu Lin, a big piece weighing about three or four catties. It is not realistic enough to let the fat from the outside seep into the inside!

The method Liu Maoxing thought of at this time was also the inspiration he got from Uncle Deji before!

Use an awl to pierce the whole piece of Niu Lin with more than 30 small holes, and then pour the oil into it...
