Chapter 480 The Original Taste of Food (Part [-])
For chefs, radish is a difficult ingredient to control, and it is often "Cheng Ye radish, Bai Ye radish".

"Compendium of Materia Medica" says that radish is "the most beneficial of vegetables". It is pungent and sweet, non-toxic, and enters the lung and stomach meridian. Food accumulation, fullness, phlegm cough, aphonia, tuberculosis hemoptysis, vomiting and acid reflux, etc.
Roast pork with radish and tofu soup with radish are both delicious and home-cooked dishes that are often eaten by the people.

But radish also has one of the biggest disadvantages, that is, the taste is too offensive, second only to the 'terrible delicacy' of garlic,
Therefore, to make radishes well, either stew them in a big oil to cover up their delicious taste, or serve them with tofu and other 'wild' ingredients at the same time, but even the famous radish and tofu soup needs enough oil and water , otherwise it will be difficult to become delicious.

Putting radishes into cold dishes is actually a very bold act. Is the shredded radish refreshing?That's because the diners will feel wonderful if they suddenly change their taste after eating big fish and meat. Do you try cold shredded radish as the first dish?It is estimated that the ladies at the table will directly cover their noses.

Takemiya Masada uses white radish slices to mortise and mortise the fish fillets, mainly to take care of the sensory enjoyment of the diners. In addition, the radish slices are paired with fresh fish. The pungent taste of radish and the faint fishy smell of sea fish can also offset each other to a certain extent.

But that's all. If we want to achieve the "colorful phoenix dancing and fragrant fragrance" recorded in the notebook by the eminent monk from the island country, it is actually far from it.

However, nine out of ten eminent monks are half-laden writers, and some literary rhetoric often uses exaggerated means. At least before seeing Zhou Dong's "Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens", Takemiya Masada always thought that he had achieved the ultimate. That eminent monk probably exaggerated.

Whether in the island country or in Huaxia, he believes that there is no second chef who can do what he does, not even those old friends in Huaxia!
Who knows that 'I have never seen the magic hand in my life, but I will know the truth once I meet Zhou Dong'!
The Cangjiu King who is also from China is right, what Chef Zhou cooks is the real Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens!

Compared with him who ordered the phoenix to be placed on the plate step by step, and even had to spell the whole phoenix after the order was placed, Zhou Dong is the real phoenix dancing for nine days. This is the real achievement of the "exotic fragrance" mentioned in the notes of the eminent monk.

There are three kinds of fragrance in the world, one is the fragrance of heavy materials and craftsmanship, the other is the fragrance that is good at seasoning, and even though various spices are used, it has a neutral and peaceful fragrance, and the third is that it is natural, simple and delicious, and you can see plum blossoms. The fragrance of salt!

These three fragrances are the three ranks in the world that masters of diligence often say, they are low rank, middle rank, and even top rank!
But even a chef who is familiar with "the best taste in the world is plum salt" has only mastered the top-grade taste, not to mention the restrictions of the dishes themselves, even if they are top-grade, they are still the taste of the world.

Since there is no smell that is out of the world, how can it be called a strange fragrance?
This eminent monk is actually a layman in the art of cooking. It is estimated that he has never eaten top-notch food before he speaks such layman's words.
Masada Takemiya always thought this way, until he met Zhou Dong, he didn't realize that he had been sitting in the sky all along!

No oil, salt, knives and spoons, no fire, no cooking oil, just relying on superb knife skills to make a dish that should be "color is more important than taste", but it is made by others. Delicacy beyond the world, How could this make him dissatisfied?

Old Wu Gong's hand holding the chopsticks trembled a little.

He has already eaten more than a dozen pieces of 'Phoenix Tail Feather'. Zhou Dong made this dish so exquisite that he couldn't bear to eat chopsticks, but he just couldn't help but want to eat a few more mouthfuls, and he couldn't stop his mouth at all. ,

It's as if he is a natural picker of flowers, but he is a natural picker and flower thief. In the end, the only reason he can explain himself is to acquiesce that he is the loner who still has some principles of life.

The entrance of the radish slices is like the essence of radish skin peeled from the freshest and most tender top-grade radish. It is not only crisp, but also extremely sweet, which makes his mouth full of saliva, and there is no trace of the original pungent taste of radish.

There are also the fish meat of Xizhiziyu and Sumeiyu. No matter how top-notch the raw fish is, it will actually have a slight fishy smell, so a clever chef will choose to use ice, sauce, and mustard to suppress the smell.
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, Chinese people already loved eating fish meat. At that time, there was no wasabi, and most of them used freshwater fish, but they also used meat-made soy sauce and rattan pepper to make sauces. In addition to increasing the taste, The main purpose is actually to suppress fishy smell.

To a certain extent, island chefs pay more attention to the original taste of food than Chinese chefs. Their craftsmanship in food is mainly reflected in "simplifying complicated problems and then making them more complicated". From complex to simple, in fact, in the end, it is a cheating process from simple to complex.

Just like yusheng.

In order to pursue the original taste of food, the top island chefs will work hard on selecting ingredients, improving knife skills and freezing time, which requires long-term practice and the cooperation of top ingredients to be close to perfection.

But it is close to perfection, after all, it is not really perfect. Even the sashimi made by a chef like Takemiya Masada who chooses the best ingredients will have a faint fishy smell. For this reason, he specially chose white radish and fish. The mortise joint is to hope that the flavors of the two can be balanced as much as possible, but it is not perfect.

As for Zhou Dong’s Phoenix Dance for Nine Heavens, not only is the radish crunchy and sweet enough without any offensive smell, even the raw fish has no fishy smell.
After the soft and sweet fish is eaten, just chew it lightly, and the delicious gravy will linger in the mouth with a taste of the original food.
Is this still Xizhiciyu and Sumeiyu?no no no!This is no longer fish, it has even surpassed the category of meat, it is the original representative of 'fresh', 'sweet', 'tender' and 'fragrant'!

Masada Takemiya let out a long sigh. If the food has its original taste, the young Chinese chef in front of him has restored at least four kinds!
A chef who masters the original taste of food is a master chef!
"Your Mightiness."

In this way, under the watchful eyes of Daoguo Tianhuang, the shocked eyes of Daoguo's junior cooks, and in this "imperial kitchen", Takemiya Masada suddenly took off a red sun medal on his chest, which represented Daoguo's The top medal in the kitchen world of the island country as the god of the kitchen world and the chef.

Takemiya Masada thought that he had no qualifications to wear this medal in front of Zhou Dong, and he didn't even have the slightest intention to dedicate this medal to Zhou Dong, because no one was qualified to award a medal to a chef god, and this medal It's not worthy of the status of a chef at all!
Walking in front of Zhou Dong, Takemiya Masada bowed deeply: "Thank you, Your Excellency!
It is you who let me taste the taste beyond the world. This "Phoenix Dance for Nine Heavens" brings the taste that really belongs to the original food.

Before I met you, the kitchen world of the island country regarded me as a 'god', and even I had this illusion,
But after I met you, I realized that I was just a joke! "
