Shiji Starts from the Beginning of the Month

He was a little puzzled before, why in this world, the dark cooking world still exists, and even re-established its dominance.

There is no reason, it's just that there is a genius in this alliance. If he succeeds, he will be called a genius, but if he fails, he will be called a lunatic. This is quite right.

"That is to say, after losing the sense of taste, it is possible for me to comprehend the taste of the heart? But the price is that I no longer have the sense of taste on the tongue?"

Jiang Xia asked.

"It was indeed like this a hundred years ago. However, the effect of this medicine has become weaker and weaker as it has been passed down from generation to generation. The effect of causing the loss of taste is not lifelong."

Jiang Nannan replied.

"This is a good thing, but it's also a bad thing. It means that you only have a limited time to try to comprehend this ability. Once you fail to comprehend it, you will never have another chance until your sense of taste recovers."

Jiang Nannan also had this kind of experience back then, but unfortunately, she couldn't comprehend the taste of the heart.

She didn't even touch the threshold at all.

In Jiang Nannan's view, the existence of the taste of the heart is too mysterious. After all, in the modern knowledge system, all tastes are electrical signals transmitted from the sensory cells on the surface of the mouth to the nerve endings.

"So it is."

Jiang Xia nodded, after Jiang Nannan's explanation, he had figured out the source of this change, which dispelled his original worries.

The worst result is that you get nothing, so that's okay.

As a chef, the first time you learn that your sense of taste may disappear, of course you will be worried. This is human nature and no one can avoid it.

However, knowing the reason, Jiang Xia didn't want to miss this magical ability.

"So how long is this time?"

Jiang Xia asked, her aunt has mutated before, so she must know more about various things than herself.

"I started to degenerate my sense of taste when I was 25 years old. The whole process lasted for three years. For you, the awakening time should be earlier. According to experience, the duration will be a little longer, and it can last for about five years."

Chapter 211 A Breakthrough in Research

During these five years, Jiang Xia will gradually lose her sense of taste, and then she must seize this period of time to realize the taste of the heart, otherwise, there will be no chance again.

This routine is very similar to the behavior of forcibly weakening the protagonist in those novels, Jiang Xia couldn't help complaining.

However, in fact, whether he has a sense of taste or not has a negative effect on the level of his cooking itself. Jiang Xia now cooks, and he will no longer intentionally taste the taste of the ingredients, the field and the heart of the chef in the process of cooking. With the addition of , his control is enough to make the cooking steps perfect.

When everything is completed according to the expected steps, then it is completely possible to guess what the taste of the food will be.

The negative effect of losing the sense of taste is mainly in life. Just imagine, no matter what you eat in the future, it will be tasteless. This feeling is the biggest blow to people.

Therefore, those Jiang family's ancestors deserve the title of lunatics. You must know that at that time, this kind of change was irreversible, and they would lose their sense of taste for the rest of their lives.

"Alright then, since the matter has been clarified, I'll go."

Jiang Xia was ready to leave immediately, if she was faster, she could still catch up with Yuanyue's supper, and enjoy it while the sense of taste is still there.

"You mobilized people, and you just went back after a while? No, you have to stay with me for a few days."

Jiang Nannan said, staying at home alone is really boring, and her personality basically belongs to two extremes. Although she occasionally goes out to play cards, but now the weather is getting colder and colder, it is difficult to meet card friends.

Yes, she doesn't hate being at home, but she doesn't like staying at home alone, watching TV alone, boring!But watching TV with Mizuno Rin is very interesting, well, that's probably how it feels.

"Since it's so boring, why don't you go to Yuanyue with me. Anyway, your restaurant is completely cold, and there is basically no need to continue to open a restaurant like you. It's just me. Worst session ever seen!"

Jiang Xia immediately assumed the posture of a teacher, and began to lecture Jiang Nannan. Because of his sudden serious appearance, Jiang Nannan was not able to fully react for a while.

"Um, uh, huh?"

After being lectured by Jiang Xia Yitong for a long time, Jiang Nannan finally came to her senses, and she grabbed Jiang Xia's ear directly: "I became a Laoshizi teacher in Yuanyue, and I have a lot of skin, I dare to talk like that with your aunt, don't Forget, I teach all your cooking, strictly speaking, you still have to call me a teacher!"

Jiang Xia didn't let go of his ear until Jiang Xia cried and tiptoed to beg for forgiveness, but the root of that ear had turned red completely, dripping blood like flowers in February.

.......

Erina and Alice swallowed their saliva at the same time. Jiang Xia's aunt seemed to be very scary. The movements were fast and accurate, and the movement transitions and transitions were extremely smooth. It could be seen that she had been specially practiced.

"However, what you say makes sense. If you go back this time, I will go to Yuanyue with you. By the way, you asked me to become a teacher in Yuanyue. Who should I apply for?"

Jiang Nannan paused for a moment and said, in fact, in Huaxia, it is not very acceptable to pass on the cooking to people in the Sakura Kingdom. Otherwise, with Jiang Nannan's cooking skills, let alone being a top-notch chef, it is still very difficult to be a wealthy chef with a good income. It's simple, and you won't be stuck in this shopping street, earning cheap meals.

If these old customers in the shopping street know that the meal they spend a few hundred Sakura national currency for a meal may be worth hundreds or thousands of times in the top circles, I don’t know what they think.

After so many years, Jiang Nannan has figured it out. The Jiang family is almost gone. If the cooking skills are still so conservative, it will not be a good result. If possible, Jiang Nannan also hopes to spread the Jiang family's cooking skills. It will not break the inheritance.

In a short period of time, Huaxia will not be able to go back, so they can only settle for the next best thing and choose the country of cherry blossoms.

As the sons and daughters of a great country, you should have this kind of tolerance. You are not afraid that you will not learn, but you will not be able to learn. Only those small countries will not open source all kinds of technical knowledge because of lack of self-confidence. Others read a book. I feel like a spy who came to steal secrets.

"You figured it out?"

Jiang Xia was taken aback when he heard the news. He had mentioned it to Jiang Nannan before, but she finally agreed. If Xiao Lin knew that Jiang Nannan had gone to Yuanyue, she would probably be very happy.

"But it's not working right now, Yuanyue's structure is quite complicated now."

Jiang Xia told Jiang Nannan about Nakamura Ji.

"His idea is too naive. If talent is useless, then what do geniuses do? Throughout the history of China, those who left their names are all talented people. China has proved this with history."

"What a stupid person, ah, Erina-chan, you shouldn't mind."

Jiang Nannan said her comment, but then remembered that Nakamura Ji seemed to be Erina's father, so she looked in Erina's direction with some embarrassment, and the latter smiled lightly, expressing that he didn't mind, now Erina has completely walked out of the shadow of her childhood.

Although a bit extreme, what Jiang Nannan said was not entirely wrong.

There are indeed people in this world who become talented through hard work, but they are a minority. To put it another way, they are geniuses who work hard.

In fact, not everyone is suitable to be a chef, and human talent does not necessarily lie in this position. The way Nakamura Ji wants to create a top chef is anti-historical in itself. The top chef that can be created is really a top chef what?

"But you can stay with me. Nakamura Ji will not take the initiative to provoke me. After all, in his eyes, I should be a very troublesome passerby."

Jiang Xia touched his nose and said.

And his guess is not bad. Jiang Xia has already gained considerable prestige in Yuanyue because of various things before, and the students even recorded some of his previous sentences and compiled them into a book. , He almost made Jiang Xia a god.

If Nakamura Ji wants to drive Jiang Xia out of Yuanyue, there will be wavering among the students, and the brainwashing army he managed with great difficulty will be affected, which will affect Nakamura Ji's plan to reform Yuanyue.

On the contrary, if Jiang Xia does not take action, then what Jiang Xia can do is very limited. It is nothing more than teaching the students, and there are very few things that can affect Nakamura Ji.

However, Ji Nakamura probably didn't expect that Jiang Xia also has research on molecular cuisine, and his attempt to defeat Alice first may be hindered by this.

Just like that, there were three people when they went there, and there were four when they came back. Jiang Nannan was carrying a small bag, and followed behind Jiang Xia who was carrying a big bag.

This made the bus driver a little jealous. Being single at this age, if he could gather so many women around him one day, he would wake up laughing even if he was dreaming.

Let's burst, charge now, the driver who fell into this mood, his driving skills are obviously much cooler than before.

The white bus was turning sharply on the winding path, which shocked Jiang Xia into a cold sweat. He was really afraid that if he didn't pay attention, the uncle would drive the car into a ditch.

However, Jiang Nannan and the other two little ones were very excited and laughed, which encouraged the uncle driver to drive more boldly.

It originally took four hours to drive, but it took less than two hours to reach Yuanyue.

Even Fujiwara Takumi probably couldn't do better.

Silent all night.

The next day, Jiang Xia was going to continue to help Alice research the molecular cuisine that can make people feel hot. This time, Jiang Nannan also joined in.

According to her, this matter looks quite interesting, and being able to help teach Erina's bastard father a lesson is also one of the things Jiang Nannan wants to do.

"We have tried almost all chili peppers. After the spiciness reaches a certain value, it can indeed bring people a burning sensation, but at the same time, it will also stimulate the sense of taste, making the ability of the taste sense to perceive other flavors weakened. .”

Jiang Xia told Jiang Nannan about the current research progress.

The problem they encountered was almost a dead end. Being able to be spicy enough to deceive the nerves without affecting the taste sounded like a contradictory thing.

Jiang Xia is still thinking about whether to give up the plan of getting rid of the pepper, and see if there is something similar in medicinal materials.

"If that's the case, why don't you consider adding other flavors to the same level?"

Jiang Nannan thought for a while and said.

Her words seemed like a flash of light suddenly made Jiang Xia's thoughts clear.

Yes, chili will indeed weaken the perception of taste, but at this moment, wouldn’t it be enough to make other flavors more intense?

Speaking of which, isn't molecular gastronomy doing exactly such a job?Through those modern high-tech instruments, the part that determines the taste is purified, so that this pure taste can impact the taste buds of users!

It works!

On the field, Jiang Xia and Alice, an expert in molecular cuisine, thought in their hearts at the same time!The idea that Jiang Nannan casually uttered, evolved in their minds, and they came to the same conclusion, which also proved the feasibility of this point!

And molecular gastronomy is the best way to achieve this.

"crystallization!"

Jiang Xia and Alice said in unison.

And Erina and Jiang Nannan stared at the two in a daze. As laymen of molecular cuisine, they didn't understand the words Jiang Xia and Alice uttered.

After the hot saturated solution is cooled, the solute is supersaturated due to the decrease in solubility, and the solute is precipitated in the form of crystals. This process is called crystallization.

Everyone knows that in the ingredients, it is a certain substance that controls the taste. After the development of chemistry, the source of the taste of some specific ingredients has been analyzed by those chemists to the point of seven or eight, but they are It is difficult to use that raw material to artificially produce a similar taste of the ingredients.

This is because, often the taste that is finally felt by people is the result of the fusion of various substances.

In molecular cuisine, the purpose of crystallization is to extract the fused substance from the ingredients.

Since it is necessary to crystallize, it is natural to squeeze all the ingredients to be used separately or add water to crush them into a liquid state.

Then, according to the type of ingredients, specific substances are added to change the solubility of the substances, and then they are precipitated from the solvent. The final product obtained is the raw material that can be used to make dishes.

This is the best and quickest step to make the taste of the ingredients more intense.

"Starting with chili peppers, we must first confirm which one is more suitable, because after crystallization, the spiciness will also change."

Alice brought out the peppers that Jiang Xia had selected before, and she needed to extract and crystallize each of them.

Jiang Xia nodded, Alice is indeed an expert in molecular cuisine, and she is obviously much more proficient than him in terms of considerations.

Jiang Xia is indeed good, but that is in ordinary cooking. Molecular cooking has just entered the industry, and there is a specialization in the art industry. That's what I'm talking about.

For example, the two stunned Erina and Jiang Nannan next to them have no knowledge of molecular cuisine.

Alice's actions fell into their eyes, that was a science experiment, just like what the teacher did in the science class when they were young.

The peppers are sent into the blender to be crushed, and then through hydraulic pressure, the core of the spicy elements and water are squeezed out of it.

As for the remaining residues on the table, there is no smell at all, and it smells like a sponge.
