They Gather Here

Chapter 39 The Great Showdown and Chinese Cuisine ([-])

Inokashira Goro is really a "ruthless" foodie.

Out of politeness, although he said no, he still ate the Scotch soft-boiled eggs without any effort.

"Although it may be a bit strict, I still have to say that the siu mai is indeed many times more delicious." He took a deep breath, "As for the reason, um... um... sorry, I can't explain it clearly."

"Because of mutton." Luo Zhen answered.

That's it!

Yukinoshita understands.

The taste of mutton is too strong, and ordinary dishes can't cover it at all.

Take Ying Lili’s Scotch soft-boiled eggs as an example. Although it is a fried food, it is very light, and it is not as good as the stimulating siu mai.

Moreover, the same is true for the following main course, sweet and sour + soup, these two cooking methods also have advantages over stew + porridge.

Is this the violent aesthetics that student Luo suddenly displayed?

Yukinoshita looked over subconsciously.

Luo Zhenruo felt it, and said with a smirk: "Actually, Jinsi Shaomai was originally made with minced pork~"

Sure enough, he fell into the trick of this thief!

Yukinoshita glared at him fiercely.

"Don't look at me like that~" Luo Zhen argued, "The chef should adapt to the situation and act on the spot."

"Hmph—" the girl raised her nose.

"do not be angry."

"whispering sound--"

"I was wrong, I was wrong, okay?"

"Pfft!"

It's easy to laugh.

Luo Zhen relaxed and let out a long breath.

At this moment, he noticed that the only customer in the store was looking at him.

I saw Mr. Inokashira looking thoughtfully at the young men and women, showing a subtle smile: "So that's what happened, but people like me may never understand it for the rest of our lives."

Understand a hammer!

Luo Zhen is full of bags.

Kato Megumi stood up to make a rescue, served the main course in two small bowls, brought it to the bar, and said, "Guest, the main course is next, please try the innovative cuisine's Stewed Beef Brisket with Potatoes and Dried Fish Porridge first."

Potato stewed beef brisket can also be innovative?

Inokashira became interested and began to taste.

The potatoes are soft and glutinous and melt in the mouth, while the beef is full of chewiness without clogging the teeth. It is very enjoyable to eat. Compared with the beef slices in traditional Japanese food, this dish is completely new.

The dried fish porridge is also delicious, highlighting the original taste of the ingredients and being extremely light.

They are great!

In the past, Inokashira would not hesitate to ask for a whole portion, paired with two bowls of rice, and feast on it.

However, after tasting the boy's Jinsi Shaomai, he hesitated for a moment, and then turned to look forward to it.

"What is the main dish of Huaxia Cuisine?" He asked.

"Sweet and sour fish roll with emerald white fungus soup, please try it." Luo Zhen brought the dishes to the bar.

It was another Chinese cuisine that I had never heard of, but Inokashira was not surprised.

He calls himself a "gourmet", so of course he knows that China is a country of gourmet food, and the food culture is extensive and profound.

There are hundreds of sauces, vinegars or condiments that have been introduced into Nihong. If these hundreds of sauces are mixed, there will be as many as 1800 cooking sauces.

From this data, one can try to imagine what kind of grand scene China is.

After all, "big land and abundant resources" is no bragging.

The only pity is that there is no business in the mainland (the crew won't go, there is no way), otherwise Inokashira will definitely start his own food journey.

However, it doesn't necessarily mean that you won't be able to taste the authentic goods.

Just like the sweet and sour fish roll in front of you.

Although there are only four pieces, just like the stewed beef brisket with potatoes, it is considered a small dish, but it is enough to taste.

It is red and beautiful, and the gravy that has just been poured is still sizzling, tempting the appetite.

Must be nice.

Inokashira picked up one and put it in his mouth.

good to eat!

The sweet and sour scent brings people back to childhood, like eating apple candy, with a mouth full of saliva, looking forward to the moment when the vendor hands it to you.

Of course, this is just a description of the sense of expectation, not a metaphor for taste——

Inokashira is an elderly person. When he was young, resources were scarce, so it would be nice to be able to eat apple candy.

Looking at it now, the apple candy will feel greasy, but the sweet and sour fish roll is just right.

The fragrant and sweet taste, wrapped in balsamic vinegar, has a fresh and crispy feeling, which is very refreshing and not greasy at all.

Inokashira almost bit off his chopsticks.

"Boss, do you know any other Chinese dishes?" He asked, "I'll give you my contact information. Please be sure to contact me when new dishes are served."

"Using an honorific title is really..." Luo Zhen was embarrassed.

"Should be."

"Ahem...that... let's not talk about it for now? How about trying the emerald white fungus soup?"

Inokashira nodded in understanding.

He picked up the spoon and pressed the surface of the cooking, but he didn't expect it to recover immediately after being slightly deformed.

"Amazing!" he said.

"This is the role of chicken oil." Luo Zhen replied, "It can play a very good protective role."

"Animal oil?"

"Ah."

"In contemporary daily food, butter is rarely used, and it is unimaginable to refine animal oil by oneself."

"Don't worry, I'm not tired at all."

Of course Inokashira believed it.

He picked up the spoon, dug a small spoonful, and found that the emerald white fungus soup could shake like jelly without breaking, and he couldn't help being amazed.

So, he couldn't bear it anymore, and put it in his mouth.

Soft as a brain, delicious taste.

The amazing thing is that the white fungus inside can still maintain a certain degree of tenacity, forming a layered taste.

There is no doubt that Huaxia Cuisine won again this time.

Inokashira sighed, and said, "Boss, your food is so delicious, even if you don't serve dessert, I don't think it is possible to lose."

"No, you should try it." Luo Zhen said, "I made a little trick in the coconut milk cake this morning."

"I am looking forward."

Luo Zhen took out the coconut milk cake from the refrigerator.

Red! ?

Yukinoshita was stunned.

"This is Dragon Fruit Coconut Milk Cake." Luo Zhen laughed, "My secret recipe!"

"Luo! Same!! Learn!!!" Yukinoshita's anger bar MAX.

"No way, the business hours have been changed to the morning. Of course, I have to give up the light concept and make some impactful dishes."

"you……"

"What's more, this is also coconut milk cake."

"I……"

"Hey hey..."

Luo Zhen hurriedly passed the test, and put the coconut milk cake on the bar.

Inokashira immediately took a bite eagerly, and then showed a complicated expression on his face.

He said: "In the past, I talked about 'delicious' lightly, and the word 'delicious' was used too much and lost its original power because I didn't think about it carefully."

"Eh?" Luo Zhen was shocked.

"Many insignificant dishes, I call 'delicious', so what it represents becomes no longer sublime. When I encounter real 'delicious', I don't know how to describe it."

Isn't it a good description?

This review...

Emmm...

Good philosophy!

"You are really a gourmet." Luo Zhen couldn't help but praise, "Everything you say can be put in a gourmet magazine."

"I'm a lonely gourmet." Inokashira looked at the four girls and smiled apologetically, "Since it's a competition, as a judge, should I vote? I vote for you."

"As I said just now, you don't need to use honorifics for me."

"No, you are the honorable 'sir'."
