There is indeed a problem with my summoning spirit system

Chapter 111 Mistake?

On the first day after the end of the small vacation after the summer camp, in the Yuanyue campus, the news of a food halberd caused disturbance among the students.

"Have you heard? Emiya, the first-year transfer student, is going to have a meal with the ninth member of the Ten Outstanding Eiyama Ezu."

"Really? I didn't expect that there would be such a big show to watch on the first day after the continuous break."

"What are you waiting for, the seats in the venue are almost full. If you don't go, there will be no seats."

The battle between Li Xiang and Rui Shan was public.The location is the dedicated halberd competition venue in Yuanyue Academy.Since both sides of the eating halberd included a member of the Top Ten, it attracted a large number of students to watch.All of a sudden, the venue was overcrowded.

Ruishan and Li Xiang were making final preparations on the court.

"Why do you want to pull me here? There is still a lot of preparation work to be done for the autumn selection. The same goes for Eizan-kun. The autumn selection is about to start. Why do we need to increase our workload? Isn't it good for everyone to get along well with each other?... "

While Eizan Ezuya was checking his kitchen knife, a soft male voice muttered to the side.

Hearing the voice, Rui Shan turned his head to look, and the person talking to him was Si Yingshi, the number one member of the Top Ten, and behind him was Gendan Kobayashi, the second member of the Top Ten.

"Senior Si, Senior Sister Ringdan, why are you here too?"

Ruishan said in surprise.

Kobayashi Gendan is a cheerful red-haired girl: "I came to see the fun, and I brought the boss here. These days I have been staying in the office all the time, and if I don't come out, I will be exhausted. Thank you. "

Si muttered in a low voice: "It's not that Rui Shanjun and Long Dan have pushed all the work to me..."

"That's right, Mr. Ruishan." Kobayashi Rindou's words revealed excitement: "Where is that junior who challenged you? I want to see what he looks like."

Rui Shan pointed to Li Xiang who was wiping the blade on the other side: "No, that's the one."

At this time, Li Xiang was wiping the blade while recalling the main points of his recipe.

Under Li Xiang's intentional guidance, Eizan Edazu also mistakenly thought that he proposed Shokugeki to him for Nakiri Erina.Since the "opponent" also seemed to have "difficulties", Ruishan didn't have much hostility towards Li Xiang.In addition, Nakiri Senzaemon is still in power in Totsuki Academy, and the system in the school has not been destroyed. Eizan did not use small tricks like the original work used against the protagonist Yukihira Soma.

The topic of food halberd proposed by the other party was as expected by Li Xiang, "Use Satsuma chicken as the main ingredient to make a dish, and the form of the dish is not limited."

After careful consideration, Li Xiang finally decided on the current recipe.

"Oh, so you are the first-year student who challenged Ezuya Eizan. Well, you are very handsome, and he looks much better than Eizan. Come on, I support you to kill him!"

While Li Xiang was thinking, Kobayashi Rindou's words interrupted his recollection.

"Hello Senior Xiao Lin, what can I do for you?"

"It's okay, let me encourage you, junior, come on, I think Ruishan is not pleasing to the eye for a long time, kill him!"

Rui Shan complained loudly: "Hey, hey, senior sister Gendan, did I hear you?"

The girl stuck out her tongue and made a grimace at Eizan Etsu Ezumi.

Si Yingshi, a white-haired boy who looked very weak, came over and took Xiaolin Gendan away: "Rentian has always been like this, so don't worry about it, junior. You can continue to prepare well."

Li Xiang nodded in confusion and agreed: "Oh, yes..."

The agreed game start time is coming soon.

The three judges invited by Yuanyue Food Halberd Administration sat down respectively. The referee gave an order, and the two faced their own cooking table and entered their own cooking world.

Satsuma native chicken was originally produced in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. It was originally an ornamental fighting cock produced by the mating of small national chickens and military chickens in Kagoshima area. After a series of improvements, it formed the current Satsuma native chicken.The meat is tender and sweet, and of high quality.Together with Nagoya Cochin Chicken and Hinai Chicken, it is called the three largest native chickens in Japan.

How to bring out the delicious taste of Satsuma chicken has become the key to the quality of the dishes and even the outcome of the food.

Rui Shan was the first to do it, and I saw that he handled a few carefully selected Satsuma chickens and put them into the pot, added green onions, ginger, and rice wine, poured cold water to cover the chicken, and cooked on high heat.

While waiting for the chicken soup to boil, Rui Shan put the chicken oil into another frying pan and melted it over low heat.The umami substances contained in the chicken fat exude a rich and plump chicken flavor after heating, which instantly attracted the attention of the audience and judges.

"Worthy of being one of the ten masters of Yuanyue, his skill is comparable to that of an experienced chef for many years."

Food critic Komatsu, one of the judges, commented.

Another judge, Watanabe, a former five-star hotel chef, echoed:
"The aroma of the chicken oil far exceeds that of the common varieties on the market. I am afraid that these chicken oils are the 'Satsuma chicken' chicken oil that he boiled himself. There is an old saying in China that 'the original soup turns into the original food', using the fat of the Satsuma chicken itself. With chicken, the compatibility will be very high.”

Next to Komatsu's right hand, Keiko Sakata, the proprietress who runs a well-known handmade tofu shop, focused on Li Xiang.

"Well, compared to Eizan-san, Emiya-san hasn't started handling the chicken yet. Is he... blending spices?"

Contrary to Rui Shan who was already firing, Li Xiang's cooking table was very quiet.He is constantly adding more than a dozen spices, including fennel, star anise, pepper, etc., to four casserole pots.

To make a perfect dish, the amount of various seasonings is important. Some cooking experts even use balances or electronic scales when mixing spices, measure the amount of spices and put them aside for later use.

But Li Xiang is different. Every time he adds a spice, he grabs a handful and throws it into the casserole. If this kind of behavior is not crazy, it means he knows the weight in his hand like the back of his hand.

Returning to Ruishan's side, after the chicken soup boiled for a few minutes, he completely skimmed off the foam in the pot, put a few spoons of refined salt into the pot, then immediately turned off the heat and closed the lid.

The judge Komatsu nodded and said: "It seems that Ezuya Ruishan has a deep understanding of how to handle chicken. He intends to use the remaining temperature to cook the chicken in the pot slowly, so as to keep the chicken fresh and tender. Texture. A really good steak is never well-done because that destroys the fine texture of the beef. The same goes for chicken.”

At this time, Li Xiang finally took out his main ingredient-a few still fresh Satsuma chicken roosters.

"Obviously there are pre-processed chickens to choose from, why does Junior Emiya have to come by himself?"

Kobayashi Gendan in the audience was eating a lollipop, very puzzled.

Si Yingshi on the side gave the answer: "It is very likely that you can't trust other people's handling. All the ingredients have to go through your own hands to ensure that the perfect dish is made. This is very similar to me. Every time I think of others There may be mistakes in the process of processing ingredients, and I am terribly afraid..."

Si Yingshi went into autistic mode again.

Si Yingshi's guess is correct to a certain extent. The reason why Li Xiang has to process the live chicken by himself during the race against time is for the freshness of the ingredients and the slight taste improvement.

In the final analysis, cooking skills are all about the details. Countless tiny details are piled up together, eventually forming a gap between the taste of the dishes. I wonder if these indigenous chefs in the world of Shiji Spirit have any special skills. Under the circumstances, Li Xiang undoubtedly used his full strength at this time.

"Look, that knife in Emiya's hand!"

"What a beautiful knife pattern."

The Damascus pattern steel knife made by Li Xiang himself was the first time on the stage of Shiji.

The flowing clouds flickered and the light of the knife passed by. The patterned steel blade accurately cut across the neck arteries of several live chickens. Then Li Xiang slowly rubbed the chickens with his hands several times, and the chicken blood gurgled out from the blood vessels.

Using the Zanpakutō Queen's water control ability, the blood in the chicken was completely squeezed out. After the bloodletting was completed, Li Xiang picked up the civil sword and slashed several times,

The young rooster was perfectly decapitated and declawed.Then the sharp knife moved freely and horizontally, and the internal organs of the chicken were also pulled out cleanly.

"Wait a minute, is the order wrong? The chicken's feathers haven't been removed yet!"

The judge was named Watanabe. He used to work as a chef in a hotel. Although he is now retired, he handles a lot of ingredients and has experience in how to handle live chickens.

No matter how it is handled, chicken dishes need to remove the chicken's feathers after all, but Li Xiang directly opened the chicken now, the skin of the chicken is no longer intact, how can it be possible to clean the chicken feathers?
Rui Shan, who was on the cooking table opposite, looked at it, and smiled contemptuously: "I thought you were so capable, killing live chickens on the spot. I didn't expect to make such a major mistake. How could the dishes served in the food halberd Cook with your hair down like some country brute, and you're done."

Rui Shan no longer paid attention to Li Xiang who was opposite, and lowered his head to concentrate on making his own dishes.
