Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Although it's preschool, it's too young! Liu Maoxing looked at the classroom speechlessly, with a dozen children up to seven years old.

At this time, let alone a cooking class, the children are already playing with ingredients and kitchen utensils!

Of course, the so-called kitchen utensils are at most plastic knives that can barely cut through dough and soft vegetables, and they will not give them real knives that may hurt themselves...

I see that the topic to be taught today is...fried dumplings? And they don't need to let them operate the stove, they just need to make fried dumplings. For children, this is not too difficult. Should we make it more difficult? ?” Chuangzhen said excitedly.

Hey, don't judge yourself and others at a time like this. No one would help out in the restaurant at home when they were in elementary school. Liu Maoxing rejected Chuangzhen's intention to enter the difficulty of hell without hesitation.

Okay, then first of all, let them concentrate, and corporal punishment is absolutely prohibited, so now... Chuangzhen looked at the children who were still fighting and thinking.

And Xiaohui seemed like a clumsy new kindergarten teacher, busy everywhere to comfort this and stop that, but it didn't work at all.

Chuangzhen remembered that when he was a child, he immediately had an idea. With his solid knife skills, carrots, potatoes and other ingredients immediately turned into flowers, robots and various toys, which attracted the attention of children. Notice.

Seeing this, Tian Suohui also followed suit, and turned the ingredients into cute little animals, which attracted the children to watch.

But at this moment, Liu Maoxing was stunned, staring blankly at the children from the state of playing just now, they were suddenly attracted attention, gathered around the long table, and began to listen to Chuangzhen explain the basic cooking of fried dumplings process, while Tian Suohui was on the sidelines, comforting and encouraging the children from time to time to keep them listening.

When Liu Maoxing saw this scene, a flash of inspiration flashed in his heart, and he suddenly thought of his concentration...

Concentration is the foundation of the prototype of the heart of the chef. Even the concentration is not up to the standard, let alone the state of no distracting thoughts when cooking.

Isn't it difficult for Liu Maoxing himself to improve his concentration just like these children?

But the difference is that Liu Maoxing himself has very high cooking skills. Although his concentration is poor, he usually doesn't seem to be affected by anything. If he just wants to take a step closer to the heart of cooking, this will not work!

Looking at the children, they looked at Chuangzhen who was teaching them how to make dumplings. Liu Maoxing also acted like he wanted to concentrate, staring at Chuangzhen... As a result, Chuangzhen was very nervous and thought that Is there any problem with where I made it!

Soon Liu Maoxing discovered that in terms of cultivating concentration, children actually have an advantage over himself. Although their attention is easy to diverge, at the same time, children are also the most likely to be addicted to one thing. This is what is often referred to as the heart of a child.

So whether it is Chuangzhen, Tian Suohui, or most of the students of Yuanyue Academy, they either open small restaurants or run high-end restaurants at home, so they have a deep family background in cooking, and they have been influenced by their ears since childhood. It is also easier to cultivate the concentration on cooking!

Later, although as they grow older, their hearts will gradually be filled with various desires and distracting thoughts, but the habits they have developed since childhood enable them to maintain a certain degree of focus on cooking, which also helps them achieve The state of no distracting thoughts when cooking has laid a certain foundation. If you are lucky, this foundation will bear fruit in the future...

However, when you get older and your mind is no longer pure, it will be very difficult to lay a foundation!

The latest student Liu Maoxing has ever seen is Shinomiya Kojiro, who only started to learn about cooking in junior high school. Whether other students or graduates, as far as Liu Maoxing knows, they all started from elementary school or even preschool. Started cooking.

As for Liu Maoxing... Everyone thinks that he must have honed his skills hard since he was a child. Only he himself knows that he only started cooking half a year ago!

...Ah Xing, can you stop looking at me like this? And... you were asked to come here to be a student? Chuang Zhen said unbearably.

The children laughed at this overage classmate.

Ahem, can I trouble you to do me a favor? It's like this... Liu Maoxing called Chuangzhen Wada Suohui over.

After Chuangzhen heard Liu Maoxing's request, he looked at him suspiciously. : Huh? You're going to class with these little kids?

That's right, I feel that the key to improving my culinary skills lies in this! Liu Maoxing said seriously.

Well, although I don't know what you're talking about, it's just one more 'student'. Chuangzhen agreed.

From stuffing to making dumplings, Chuangzhen gave a detailed explanation. At the same time, in order to increase everyone's interest, he also chose a variety of convenient fillings for everyone to choose...

After all, apart from Liu Maoxing, the oldest student is only seven years old. It is inevitable that some students are clumsy, and Liu Maoxing seems to really treat himself as a child. The operation that can be completed in an instant has to be as laborious as a child. .

When Chuangzhen wrapped his arms around a child and taught him how to make dumplings, Liu Maoxing also raised his hand to Tian Suohui and said, Teacher Tian Suohui, I don't know how either!

... Tian Suohui, who was always kind, pretended not to see him this time.

The original teacher of the pre-school cooking class who had to ask for leave because of a sprained foot, was also worried at this time, and leaned on crutches to take a look outside the door.

It turned out that the situation was even better than I had imagined. Shota, who had always been distracted, carefully cut the stuffing with a plastic toy knife under the stimulation of Chuangzhen; Next, muster up the courage to try...

The only thing that is not harmonious is...why there is such an older student? Didn't it say that three outstanding students will come as substitute teachers?

At the same time, among the dozen or so children, there was still one who did not participate. It was the oldest, seven and a half years old, and also the most mature Huayin.

Hmph, there's no need to learn cooking, right? Anyway, even if I don't do it, someone will prepare it for me! the young Huayin said rebelliously.

Huh? Then why did you come to the cooking classroom? Chuangzhen asked in confusion.

It's not what people want to come!

Tian Suohui immediately said: But, but in the future, you may live alone, and your family members are not feeling well. It would be great if you can help!

Don't worry about it, bumpkin woman!

Tian Suohui was hurt by Young Tooth's poisonous tongue and fell into a negative state of depression.

Hahaha, I see! You must be worried that I will laugh at you if you don't do well, right? Liu Maoxing said in a child's tone.

No, no! You are so bad, I am the only one who laughs at you! Hua Yin said dissatisfied.

Then do you want to compare?

Compare! Everything is better than what you do!

Well, under the astonished eyes of Xingping Chuangzhen and Tiansuohui, Liu Maoxing and seven-year-old Huayin reached an agreement to eat the halberd...

So, that's how it is! Is it to mingle with the children? As expected of Yuanyue's excellent student! The injured teacher was shocked outside the classroom door, thinking Liu Maoxing's behavior was a strategy.

And Liu Maoxing also pretended to be a child, the dumplings were crooked, and after Yu Chuangzhen fried them, they were on par with Huayin, and at the same time, the two also took the bottom one and the second...

Mr. Xiaohui, it's obvious that his is uglier, right? Huayin bribed Tian Suohui with a pair of cute eyes, completely forgetting that she was called a bumpkin before.

This...that's right! Huayin's fried dumplings are more beautiful and delicious! Tian Suohui expressed apology to Liu Maoxing for not being able to see the angle while speaking.

At this time, Chuangzhen also came over and put two unidentified foods that could barely be regarded as fried dumplings into his mouth, and tasted one by one...

Then he said: Really? I think Ah Xing's is more delicious!

Eh? Tian Suohui looked at him in surprise, and thought to himself: Isn't it because of encouraging Huayin at this time?

And Liu Maoxing's fried dumplings are indeed the same as Huayin's...

Hahaha, then it's a one-to-one tie! It seems that the outcome will be decided next time! Liu Maoxing said excitedly.

Huayin's expression darkened suddenly and she said, Actually, our dumplings are not 'delicious' at all, right! I'm not suitable for cooking at all...

This... Chuangzhen felt embarrassed. He didn't know how to lie when asked to such an extent.

Instead, Tian Suohui took a deep breath and said, No! Huayin, Teacher Xiaohui will teach you a secret, okay?

After Kanon showed a curious expression, Tian Suohui said: Everyone can do the same, the secret is... When cooking, think 'I will make it for my most important people to taste', do this The food that comes out will definitely be delicious!

Eh? The teacher lied, right? Does this help the cooking? Although the children were young, they looked suspicious.

But this time Tian Suohui was extremely firm: That's right! This will definitely make the food more delicious!

For... the most important person? Liu Maoxing muttered again.

At the same time, looking at his failed product just now, he sighed silently: I really don’t have the talent to be beautiful as Subaru. Even if I pretend to be a super bad cook, compared with real children, I still only look like a child...

But just take it as a way to lurk among the children and mingle with them. Most importantly, Tian Suohui's last words finally gave Liu Maoxing inspiration!

But at this moment, it was time for get out of class to end, Hua Yin walked up to Liu Maoxing, lowered her head and asked, You, will you come to class next time? I, I am not here to compete with you!
