Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

Since cooking with Shu Han Old Noodles at the Hokkaido Seafood Pastry Competition last time, this is the second time that Liu Maoxing has encountered ingredients that he has a cooking heart. He had a guess, if it can be realized...

Why should I comprehend the heart of cooking by myself?

Huh? What are you mumbling about? Erina asked doubtfully.

At this time, the eel banquet was over. Before Liu Maoxing finally used the ingredients of the Central Gourmet Organization to cook the last batch of eel meat, some guests were still reluctant to part with it, but Liu Maoxing still refused to continue cooking, but finally ensured that everyone at least Tasted a...

Of course, what Liu Maoxing didn't say was that he actually hidden a piece of eel meat strips, and he planned to give everyone a taste after returning home.

Right now, I'm on my way back to the hotel with Erina...

Fei Shazi and Yu Mei stayed at the branch after the eel banquet to handle some finishing work.

At this time, the guests are clearly optimistic about the former between Yuanyue Academy and Central Gourmet Agency.

It is true that few of these people are the directors of Totsuki Academy, but since they were invited by Reiko Hiroi, they are definitely people in the culinary industry who have a certain influence in Hokkaido.

Originally, she wanted to take the opportunity to increase the influence of the Central Gourmet Organization, but unexpectedly, she shot herself in the foot and spent tens of millions to advertise for Yuanyue College... Of course, the money spent was also Yuanyue Group Yes, but if Hiroi Reiko didn't have such a goal, she wouldn't be involved in the auction.

I don't even know if Kusutaro and the others will be blamed by Nakiri Ji for this kind of non-war fault, but it is estimated that Nakiri Ji will not give a good face to Hiroi Reiko who provoked this incident...

Erina was obviously in a good mood. Liu Maoxing's Silver Dragon Meat also shocked her again at Liu Maoxing's cooking skills. At the same time, she also asked him where the cooking heart was copied this time.

Liu Maoxing also told Erina about the fact that the giant eel meat has a cooking heart, and Erina also found that he seemed to be thinking about something along the way...

Still thinking about Yinlong's 'cooking heart'? This kind of ingredients may not be encountered a few times in a cook's life. Do you need to think so much? Erina wondered.

It's nothing, I'm just a little concerned, I'll ask someone to ask at night... Liu Maoxing himself didn't know whether his guess was correct, so he didn't say much.

It's Marui from the Classical Cuisine Research Association? Erina felt that none of the people from Yuanyue Academy could teach Liu Maoxing anything in cooking, but the people from the Classical Cuisine Research Association like to browse some records of ancient cuisine, saying Maybe there are some things that Liu Maoxing doesn't know.

No, not from Yuanyue Academy, nor in Hokkaido.

Erina glanced at him suspiciously, then narrowed her eyes and said, It's a woman!

Hmm... um? How do you know?

Guess! Go to bed early at night, we will leave for the next stop tomorrow morning! Erina snorted.

Liu Maoxing glanced at her inexplicably, and thought to himself: Could it be that Erina got angry because she knew that I was in touch with Liu Maoyuan? Is the relationship between the two so bad?

But I don't know, Erina is just a little upset, Liu Maoxing just calls women other than himself at night, even if he knows it's a serious business, it's a bit tasteful...

However, there is no overbearing stop, after all, the arrogant mode is for outsiders, and intellectually, she also knows that Liu Maoxing is here to answer doubts.

After returning to the hotel, Liu Maoxing asked Erina to bring the eel meat from the incubator to everyone. The eel meat in the incubator was basically cooked, but it hadn't been cut up yet. As long as it was poured with clear soup, it would be authentic Silver Dragon Meat.

But he went back to his room and dialed Liu Maoyuan's phone number.

Hey, who...

I'm Liu Maoxing, you're already asleep, right? Liu Maoxing could hear the laziness in his voice, and if he was still in good spirits, it's impossible not to see the notification of the incoming call, right?

I haven't fallen asleep yet... Let's talk about something! Liu Maoyuan intentionally raised his tone a few times, as if to wake himself up.

Do you usually go to bed so early? Or are you on a 'business trip' again? Liu Maoxing wondered.

The dinner ended at 9:30, and it's just after 10:00. Considering that the time at Liu Maoyuan is still an hour behind, it should be just past 9:00... For modern people, elementary school students rarely go to bed so early, right?

Business trip? I'm on a business trip... You wouldn't call at night just to ask this? Liu Maoyuan said dissatisfied.

It was only then that she remembered that Liu Maoxing might have included her last visit to Yuanyue Academy as a business trip.

Just curious, I have something else I want to ask you...

Early to bed and early to rise is an important way to adjust the 'balance' of the cook! Cooking is also a process of balancing the ingredients through various means. The more perfect the balance, the more delicious the result... Of course, the cook must also Only in a state of balance!

Therefore, we have passed the initial stage, and the clansmen who need to get up early and sleep late for fatigue learning, generally go to bed early and wake up early when there is no special evening banquet! Of course, we can also adjust our biological clocks when we have special dinner parties. Liu Maoyuan explained.

Ahem, I'm just asking casually, and I don't need to answer in such detail. Liu Maoxing said that you made a big push, but I didn't quite understand it!

In short, it should be some kind of cooking practice with a very ancient style passed down in the Liu family...

At the beginning, I did a lot of fatigue exercises every day, and basically didn't have much time to sleep every day. After passing this stage, I started to go to bed early and get up early every day to maintain my health...

It's okay, I'll hang up... Liu Maoyuan's eyes seemed to be transmitted along the phone line.

Wait, wait, there's more business... that... do you know that besides the will you instill in the cooking, there is also a will of the ingredients themselves that can affect the cooking? Liu Maoxing asked.

The will of the ingredients themselves? You mean 'yuan cuisine'? Where did you know about it? Did he succeed? It doesn't make sense... Liu Maoyuan asked hastily.

Although Liu Maoxing was a little concerned about the few words he said to himself, but seeing that Liu Maoyuan, or the Liu family really knew about the relevant matters, and even gave this phenomenon a name, he immediately described the situation he encountered. came out, and asked about things related to Liu Maoyuan.

Shuhan old noodles and giant eels... well, so that's it, you are lucky, and you have the opportunity to use these ingredients that are most suitable for 'source cuisine' to cook with your own hands. I haven't even seen it a few times. It was only now that Liu Maoyuan's three views had stabilized again.

Can you tell me what's going on with 'Original Cuisine'?

Actually, it's similar to what you think. Some ingredients can easily inspire their own will. If the cooking method is appropriate and just in line, it will guide the will of the ingredients themselves into the cooking... the same effect as the heart of the chef, but One originates from the cook, and the other originates from the ingredients.

Because according to the point of view of ancient cuisine, the will derived from the ingredients is more pure, so this cooking method is also called source cuisine, and the will of the ingredients is called source. ...However, Master Xie would actually lend you the 'Shu Han Old Noodles', which is inconceivable. It is now recognized as the easiest ingredient to induce 'source'!

Master Xie? So his surname is Xie?

...

Although Liu Maoxing did not know the true identity of the Turtle Immortal, but after hearing Liu Maoxing's description, Liu Maoyuan knew that it must be his old man, and it was precisely because of this that she felt strange that Master Xie would lend his old face to someone he did not know. Cook, although that thing is a renewable resource, and it can be spawned continuously with an introduction, but it can't be borrowed at will, right?

At the same time, Liu Maoxing seemed to agree with Liu Maoyuan's description of Old Shu Han Noodles. Shaped eel was guided to source when the cooking was almost finished...

Of course, the will of this kind of food is only for the food, not the individual life, it is not the ghost of the giant eel, it is derived from the food of giant eel meat.

At this time, Liu Maoxing also asked the thing he most wanted to prove: Just now you said that 'Shu Han old noodles' are the 'easiest' ingredients for source cooking, which means that there are many ingredients that can be used for 'source cooking'?

After hesitating for a while, Liu Maoyuan said: That's right, a lot... It seems that there is something more to say.

Are all the ingredients theoretically acceptable? Liu Maoxing asked.

How do you know? Liu Maoyuan asked in surprise.

really! Liu Maoxing had been thinking about this matter before, because if the source of Shu Han old noodles was used by the Luo family for generations, and the reverberation appeared, then why does the giant eel meat also have this property?

The giant eel has become a sperm? Liu Maoxing thinks this is unscientific... Although there are many unscientific things, Liu Maoxing thinks this is especially unscientific!

Moreover, the difficulty of stimulating the source of the two ingredients is obviously different, which also makes Liu Maoxing almost instinctively think whether the special feature of giant eel meat is only easier to stimulate the source rather than having source?

Liu Maoxing explained the reason for his guess, and at the same time asked Liu Maoyuan about Yuan Cuisine.

Actually, I also read it from the ancestor's handbook. In theory, all ingredients can be used for source cooking, but it is very difficult for ordinary ingredients to stimulate 'source', even more difficult than mastering the heart of cooking...

At the beginning, the Liu family was also keen on pursuing 'yuan' cuisine, but very few succeeded, and even our cooking skills began to lag behind, so the elders of the clan began to change their thinking, that is, after the taste of food was strong enough, Begin to develop the chef's own cooking heart. Liu Maoyuan said.

Are you flexible too? Ahem...I mean...

Hehe, I know what you mean! Liu Maoyuan gritted his teeth, but continued: Actually, before the ancestor left, he also warned the descendants that the 'source' of ingredients is hard to come by, so don't be too persistent.

Liu Maoxing reckoned that this departure should refer to leaving this world. What really caught his attention was the latter sentence...
