Kaiseki cuisine is based on “one soup and three dishes”, that is, a Japanese soup, a sashimi, a boiled dish, a fried or grilled dish.

Later, with the development of the times, the form became richer, and many old shops innovated, not only satisfying “one soup and three dishes”, but also adding aperitif and appetizers, appetizers, desserts and so on.

However, no matter how the form changes, the quiet, peaceful, and light style of kaiseki cuisine has been passed down from generation to generation.

If the character of traditional sake banquet cuisine is “sake”, then the character of kaiseki cuisine is “tea”.

There is no lively scene of feasting and feasting, and tasting kaiseki cuisine is to sit quietly on the tatami mats and slowly wait for the dishes to arrive in order.

The utensils used in kaiseki cuisine are also exquisite, and the exquisite utensils are antique and valuable, containing the Zen spirit of tea ceremony culture.

“It is worthy of the Xue Che family, and these utensils can simply be used as cultural relics.” Chang Wei smacked his tongue while looking at the dishes and plates in the kitchen.

In order to satisfy the IGO examiners, utensils that meet the positioning of kaiseki cuisine are essential.

But the most important thing is the quality of the cuisine.

“It’s better like this,” Chang Wei looked at the four girls, “let’s divide the production, make two or three dishes per person, and make a table of kaiseki cuisine.” ”

“But are we a little…” Scarlet hesitated.

“It’s okay, let go and do what you do best, and I’ll check it in the end.”

Chang Wei smiled and began to assign tasks again.

“The little secretary is in charge of the staple food and soup, which are easier to make into the form of medicinal food.”

“How about Alice making appetizers and desserts, I think you should be better at it.”

“There are still steamed, grilled, boiled, and fried vegetables left,” Chang Wei looked at Erinai and Kobayashi Gentian , “How do you want to divide them?” ”

“It doesn’t matter.” “Whatever.”

Shaking his head silently, the powerful ones are different.

“Then Erinai is in charge of steaming and roasting vegetables. Gentian is responsible for cooking and frying dishes. ”

“Teacher Chang Wei,” Xiao Lin Gentian narrowed his eyes, “Then what are you responsible for?” ”

“Me? I am in charge of the aperitif bar. Chang Wei smiled.

“Why should I be in charge of two dishes, but you can only be responsible for the aperitif!”

Xiao Lin Gentian suddenly became dissatisfied and puffed out his cheeks, “It’s too lazy, it’s disrespectful to the old.” ”

“Hey, I trust you, and I’m going to keep you a check on it in the end.” Also, am I that old? ”

“Don’t listen, don’t listen, don’t listen…”

Ignoring the vexatious Xiaolin Gentian and Chang Wei waved at everyone.

“All in all, everyone can do their best cooking, come on.”

After thinking for a long time, Chang Wei still decided to help the girls cook well first, and finally make an aperitif.

Not because aperitif is not important. In fact, aperitif is very important, if kaiseki cuisine is a symphony, the aperitif is the introduction, the thread that leads to the main melody.

But more importantly, it is necessary to set the theme of kaiseki cuisine and the main theme of this symphony.

And if they first say the theme, and then let them do it, it will inevitably limit their play and lead to fear, which is not what Chang Wei wants to see.

I’m still a little uneasy….

So I can only let the girls how to do it, how to get it smoothly, and finally integrate all the dishes into a line to form a feast of kaiseki cuisine.

Kobayashi gentian is responsible for cooking and frying vegetables. Chang Wei looked behind her back, as if he was making boiled ginji fish and fried tempura.

“Gentian your dish is simple enough, it looks clear at a glance.” Chang Wei patted Xiao Lin Gentian’s shoulder affectionately.

“Of course, kaiseki cuisine is about revealing the essence of the ingredients in a simple way.”

Xiao Lin Gentian smiled back, while being proud, he skillfully removed the fish bones, “Don’t look at me like this, I still have a lot of research on traditional cuisine.” ”

“I can’t agree with Sister Kobayashi’s words.” Erina, looking over, had an inexplicable vinegar in her eyes.

“I think the ingredients in kaiseki cuisine can be simple, but the form of the cuisine must be perfect, otherwise it will be a waste of precious ingredients.”

Chang Wei looked in front of Erina, and it was a large mackerel and oysters.

“Erinai is going to make steamed mackerel and charcoal-grilled oysters.” Chang Wei clapped his hands and smiled, “In your style, it must be a dish with an extremely gorgeous appearance and a wonderful taste.” ”

“Koerina, we make kaiseki cuisine.” Kobayashi Gentian smiled and looked at Erina, “Pursuing the combination of each dish is the most important thing, it is too pompous to do so.” ”

“I’m afraid Senior Sister Kobayashi is afraid that her dishes will be covered… It’s okay, I’ll do the balance. “Erina,-for-tat, not showing weakness.

“Hehe, Rina Xiao Eri really likes to joke…”

At the beginning, the team seemed to be locked in a battle of styles. Silently away from the place full of strange atmosphere, Chang Wei walked to the little secretary’s cooking counter.

“It’s kelp miso soup, I really want to put a bowl and drink it now.”

Chang Wei looked at the soup pot that had already boiled, filled with the tempting umami flavor of kelp and seaweed, fragrant and mouth-watering.

“Really, I haven’t put medicinal herbs yet…” the little secretary smiled helplessly.

“I want to make kelp miso soup with edible herbs such as goji berries and lotus seeds, and seafood baked rice with herbs such as Sichuan bow, angelica, and baizhi.”

“Although I am only responsible for the soup and staple food, I will definitely not hold everyone back and disappoint Chang Weige!”

Looking at the little secretary’s smile, Chang Wei thought about what kind of kelp soup is not kelp soup, just looking at this touching smile, he felt that he couldn’t do it, he was cured again, and he was about to fall.

“Brother Chang, everyone just won’t come to see me when they see it!” Alice ran over and shook Chang Wei’s arm.

“Oh, isn’t this just going?” Chang Wei touched his head and laughed, there was nothing he could do about this childish girl.

“Alice makes appetizers and desserts.”

“No, it’s – magical molecular appetizers and desserts.” Alice corrected solemnly.

Chang Wei was helpless: “Okay, good, what you say is what it is…”

Looking at the tofu cubes on the table, the tofu cubes are not all white, but grass green, which complements the pale green matcha next to it.

“This is not tofu made of soybeans, it is made of sea cabbage juice and starch extracted from kelp, just like natural MSG, it is much more tender than tofu!”

“And this matcha, which is also added with sugar extracted from seaweed!”

“It’s Alice, molecular cooking is really powerful.”

“Hehe~” was praised, and Alice was happy like a child.

Alas, the team of problem girls together, Chang Wei sighed secretly, but suddenly stunned.

The gentian dish uses jingi fish and tempura clams.

Erina’s dishes are mackerel and oysters.

The little secretary’s soup has kelp and seaweed, and the seafood risotto also has fish and shrimp.

Alice’s molecular cuisine is also made from seafood such as kelp, sea cabbage, and seaweed.

In other words, the entire kaiseki cuisine is made up of seafood ingredients.

Seafood, sea… Chang Wei thought crankyly.

“If the sea can, take away my sorrow like every river…”

He hummed an inexplicable song softly, and his eyes fell on the semi-finished matcha made by Alice.

Tea…… Tea….

“Tea… …”
