Looking at Tian Suo Hui's cute and frightened look, Yan Kai couldn't help but touched her head: "Don't worry, I don't want you to learn it all at once. You will definitely be able to do it within ten years."
In ten years' time, Tian Sohui's martial arts should be able to reach the level of perfection, and by then the super-five consciousnesses will naturally come naturally.
Having five levels of sleep in ten years...
Even Nakiri Erina, who possesses the tongue of God, couldn't help but swallow her saliva. Super-taster may not be necessary for her, but the other four senses sound like they can push her cooking skills to several levels. This made her extremely eager.
Super five sleeps, not to mention ten years, even if it takes twenty or thirty years, it is completely worth the training and pursuit of cooks.
This is Uncle Liu’s inheritance. Did we miss this back then?
Yuanyue graduates felt as if a large chunk of important things had been ripped out of their hearts.
When they graduate from Totsuki Academy, they all have the opportunity to be tested by Uncle Liu's disciples in person. This is the biggest reward for them who have fought through thousands of troops.
But they all failed. At that time, they didn't feel anything. I just thought that Uncle Liu's test was inexplicable. Now I know that after passing the test, I can actually learn such magical skills!
If he had passed the test back then...
Otherwise, they all failed, and the one who succeeded was this inconspicuous little girl who was severely criticized by Shinomiya Kojiro.
Yan Kai took out a piece of paper, scrawled on it, and then handed the paper to Shinomiya Kojiro.
"Try this."
The above is an improved version of Shinomiya Kojiro's recipe. Shinomiya Kojiro held this recipe tightly and wanted to throw it in Yan Kai's face but couldn't do it.
As a cook, you should let your cooking speak for itself, not your emotions.
He started cooking according to the improved recipe. Shinomiya Kojiro was not very capable and made everyone wait for a while before finishing the new dish, but no one was impatient at all.
Shinomiya Kojiro, who recreated the dishes, became more serious and focused than before. His pride was completely shattered, leaving only the stubbornness and unyieldingness of the cook.
At this time, Shinomiya Kojiro is more respectable than the high-spirited person he was before.
After the new dish was finished, Shinomiya Kojiro showed it to Nakiri Erina, who was famous in the Japanese cuisine world for her evaluation.
Nakiri Erina brought the new dish to her mouth, chewed and tasted it carefully and nodded in approval: "Not bad, it's a big improvement compared to before." But it was still not as good as Yan Sang's dish.
Of course Erina Nakiri didn't say the latter part. After all, she was Totsuki's senior, so she still had to leave this bit of face to him.
Using the same recipe, the result was still Yan Kai's overwhelming victory, which also proved that Yan Kai's cooking skills were indeed much higher than Shinomiya Kojiro's.
"I...I was wrong, I am willing to revise Tian Suohui's results..."
Shinomiya Kojiro felt weak all over.
Shinomiya Kojiro once opened a French restaurant in Paris, France. At the beginning, with his excellent cooking skills, the restaurant was highly praised and it suddenly ranked among the top restaurants in Paris.
However, the local chefs in the restaurant were dissatisfied with him as a Japanese chef. They were half selfish and half jealous. They modified his recipes without permission, causing the restaurant's evaluation to be good and bad. Of course, the chef Shinomiya Kojiro was the first to bear the brunt and was praised by many gourmet magazines. Questioned, the restaurant's reputation also plummeted.
Since then, Shinomiya Kojiro has treated his chefs as enemies, not allowing them or anyone to modify his recipes, not even a little bit. He drives the chefs with a harsh attitude and makes him restaurant The chefs must strictly follow his recipes. If they violate the rules, they will be fired immediately!
He subconsciously brought this attitude with him during the training camp, so he judged Tadokoroe to have failed. Thinking about it now, if his paranoia was put aside, Tadokoro's changes might not be an innovation.
Now, the recipe that he was proud of was completely beaten to pieces. Shinomiya Kojiro, his pride and paranoia were of course also beaten to pieces.
Yan Kai ignored Shinomiya Kojiro, so what if Shinomiya Kojiro admitted his mistake? Does it matter to Yan Kai whether he admits his mistake or not? In the final analysis, Shinomiya Kojiro's opinion means nothing to Yan Kai. He is not worthy of Yan Kai's effort. Everything Yan Kai does is just for Tian Suo Hui and to build confidence in Tian Suo Hui.
So Yan Kai turned to Tian Suohui and said: "Xiao Hui, there are no perfect recipes in this world, only chefs who dare to constantly innovate. I know that Uncle Liu will teach you many powerful recipes in the future, but you must not rest on your laurels. I don’t know how to make progress, otherwise I will be very disappointed!”
"Changing recipes according to the difference in the status of the ingredients is an essential quality for a good chef. I don't think there is any problem. It is a test of the chef's reaction ability... Ha, what are you doing in such a rotten kitchen that spoils the ingredients for the chef? ?”
"Besides, if you really only cook according to the recipe, what else do you need a chef to do? If you make a machine and program it, wouldn't it save money than a human being who is obedient? A chef who refuses to change the recipe will be replaced by a machine sooner or later!"
After talking about it later, Yan Kai's words couldn't help but become a little more serious, and Shinomiya Kojiro felt even more uncomfortable after hearing it.
Isn't it him who Yan Kai said would be replaced by machines?
"Yes, Kaijun!"
Tasokoro nodded heavily.
Yan Kai had done so much, wasn't it just to help Tian Suohui to stand out? Tian Suohui was so moved that he had to remember Yan Kai's teachings firmly. As for the criticism in Yan Kai's words, well, she didn't hear much of it.
Dojima Gin stood up again at this time: "Shinomiya is willing to revise the results. I also hope that Tadokoro-san can continue to train. She has many characteristics that our Totsuki students have learned, so..."
Yan Kai directly interrupted Dojima Gin and continued: "I have said before, there is only half a day, Xiao Hui's time is very precious, there is no surplus that can be wasted."
"but……"
"Xiao Hui has no need to go back and be judged by a group of second-rate chefs!"
Yan Kai's eyes became sharp as he glanced at the Yuanyue graduates.
Two, a second-rate chef?
Hearing Yan Kai's comments, all the Yuanyue graduates also took a breath.
In the world of Japanese cuisine, Yuanyue graduates have always been dazzling stars and are highly anticipated. When have they ever been evaluated as second-rate chefs?
Even if Yan Kai's cooking skills are superior to them, Yan Kai can't insult them like this!
Seeing the unconvinced looks of all the graduates, Yan Kai raised his hand, raised three fingers, and flexed his index finger and thumb: "I won't talk about the unqualified chefs. Color, aroma, taste, can... A chef who can do these three things well can be considered a third-rate chef.”
After saying that, Yan Kai flicked up his index finger: "In addition to color, aroma, and taste, he also has form, meaning, and nourishment. He is considered a second-rate chef. The classification of this realm is very broad. Even if he is a second-rate chef, his cooking skills are completely different. Yes. Chef Shinomiya is at this level, a little far from the ultimate, but very close to it. You can evaluate yourself based on the gap between you and him."
Not to mention color, fragrance, and beauty, what Yan Kai talks about is form, meaning, and nourishment. Shape, of course, is appearance, which means artistic conception and atmosphere, while nourishment is nutrition. All the professional chefs present understood what Yan Kai meant. And their cuisine is indeed full of color, flavor and texture.
Yan Kai uses three fingers, the little finger, the ring finger and the middle finger, to refer to the color and fragrance, and only uses one index finger to refer to the form, meaning and nourishment. It is not that the three kinds of nourishment of form and meaning are worth the color, fragrance but only because of the nourishment of form and meaning. The three are often closely connected. One is connected and the three are connected. There is no need to separate them.
Finally, Yan Kai also raised his most important thumb: "Have all the color, fragrance, form, mind and nourishment. In addition to the six, integrate into the 'god', then you can be considered a real first-class chef, and you are still not good at this." It’s far away!”
Yan Kai's words are a very novel theory for Totsuki graduates. Japanese cooks judge their merits through cooking duels. Totsuki Academy, which pays attention to the ranking of the school, has become a common practice. When will the chefs be divided? Realm? Never heard of it!
"Yan-san, is this the classification of your middle-aged managers?" Nakiri Erina asked.
The Chinese food cooking industry is very unique. It is rare to see Chinese food cooks in any international cooking competitions. Therefore, although Japan is a neighbor of China geographically, the Japanese cooking community knows very little about the Chinese food cooking industry.
This was also the first time she heard about the division of first-rate, second-rate and third-rate.
"Yes, that's right!" Yan Kai said frankly, "I said you are second-rate, not to belittle you, but that you really only have second-rate standards. There are many second-rate chefs like you in the Central Plains, and there are so many second-rate chefs. Not one percent of chefs can reach the top level in their lifetime!"
Dojima Gin was silent. In recent years, although he was busy with worldly affairs, he never stopped studying cooking. But the more he studied, the more he felt that there was a thin barrier preventing him from reaching a higher level. He He sought advice from Commander-in-Chief Yuanyue, who said it was because he failed to understand the mystery of "God".
Over the years, he has been thinking hard about how to understand "god", but he couldn't figure it out. He went to the commander-in-chief for advice, but the commander-in-chief also shook his head. He also didn't know what "god" was. He only learned from the notes of his ancestors. He knew that if a good cook wanted to reach a higher realm, he must understand "God", but he had no idea what "God" was and how to understand it.
The Nakiri family's ability to become the leader in the Japanese cuisine world does not rely on one or two outstanding cooks, but the god's tongue passed down from generation to generation. Because of the god's tongue, the Nakiri family has become the absolute authority in the Japanese cuisine world. With authority comes power, so it’s unclear how superb Nakiri Senzamon’s cooking skills are, but he is definitely the most knowledgeable and knowledgeable person in the Japanese cooking world, but even he can’t If you tell the secret of "god", few people in the entire Japanese cuisine world may know it.
And now, listening to Yan Kai's meaning, he seems to know the first-class realm very well?
Could it be that this ridiculously young man is already a first-class cook?
"Has Yan-san already reached the first-class level?" Nakiri Erina asked the question that Dojima Gin wanted to ask.
"Yeah." Yan Kai responded directly.
It's just the first-class realm. He has been in this realm for a long time. Because of his super sense of taste, Yan Kai has developed a tricky stomach. Only dishes made by first-class chefs can be eaten by him. If he hadn't reached this realm early, he would have run away from home even now. Eating is a problem.
Although it was expected, when Yan Kai said it, both Dojima Gin and Nakiri Erina, as well as a group of Totsuki graduates and Nito Hiisako and Mito Yumei who came in holding Nakiri Erina's thighs, all gasped. A breath of cool air contributed to the rise in temperature in the underground kitchen.
Seeing that so many people were making a fuss, Yan Kai shook his head and said: "A first-class chef is not necessarily that amazing. What is really great is a super first-class chef like Uncle Liu!"
Super, super first-class chef? Is there something even more powerful than this first-class chef?
Nakiri Erina was shocked.
If we talk about a first-class cook, Nakiri Erina recalled the taste from memory, and felt that Saiba Joichiro should have reached this level. The dishes he cooked are also incredibly perfect, but a super first-class cook... Nakiri Erina would not dare at all. Imagine what kind of food a cook at this level can make.
The cuisine of a first-class chef is already perfect, is it even better than first-class? Beyond perfect?
Nakiri Erina's head ached.
She really didn't know that such monsters existed in the Chinese physical world.
"Grandpa is a top-notch cook?" Tian Suohui's heart was also throbbing. She knew that Uncle Liu was a great cook, but this was the first time she knew that he was such a great cook.
"That's right." Yan Kai explained, "There are two restaurants on the second floor and two restaurants in the Central Plains culinary world. They are culinary overlords who have been inherited for more than a hundred years and dominate the area. These two restaurants on the second floor have produced top-notch chefs."
"The second restaurant on the second floor?"
Yan Kai nodded: "Rongcheng Juxialou, Yanjing Babaolou, Hudu Longzhen Restaurant, and Guangdong Yangquan Restaurant. These four restaurants are collectively known as the 'Second Floor and Two Restaurants'. Their status in the Central Plains cooking world is as high as yours in Japan." Totsuki."
"Rongcheng Ju Downstairs is the ancestral business of Uncle Liu's family. It was founded by Grandma Liu Bo and carried forward by Grandpa Liu. From Grandma Liu Bo to Uncle Liu, four generations in a row have been top-notch chefs."
"Among them, Uncle Liu's grandfather, Senior Liu Pleiades, reached the level of a super-class chef at the age of only fourteen. Later, he made breakthroughs step by step in the struggle against the dark cooking world, and finally defeated the dark cooking world, and also won the title of Central Plains Chef. The highest honor in the world, becoming the Supreme Dragon Chef, the first chef in the Central Plains."
"Liu Bode is the true successor of senior Liu Pleiades. He was already a top-notch chef many years ago. Although he is now older and his physical fitness has declined significantly, his state is still there, but his body is not strong enough to support him to display many powerful cooking skills, so he can only count Half a top-notch chef.”
"Ju Xia Lou was run by Uncle Liu and other four generations, and it once had the title of the No. 1 restaurant in the Central Plains. Uncle Liu himself had no heirs. Now the person who takes over Ju Xia Lou is Uncle Liu's nephew, who is also the fifth owner of Ju Xia Lou." Act as the head of the family."
"Perhaps you can visit Juxialou in the future. You are Uncle Liu's disciple, and you can also be regarded as the junior sister of Juxialou. They will definitely welcome you, but with your current seniority, there should be a lot of people calling you Your great uncle, don’t be too surprised!”
Yan Kai finally made a joke.
"Ju coming downstairs?"
Longing flashed in Tazoe's eyes. That's where her grandfather grew up. It should be very powerful, right? But forget about the "Master-uncle" thing, you can't afford it, you can't afford it!
Damn it, are you trying to poach someone?
Nakiri Erina took a deep look at Yan Kai. No matter whether Tadokoro was still from Totsuki or not, at least she was still from the Japanese cooking world. But looking at Yan Kai, it seemed like she was going to kidnap him to the Central Plains!
However, Nakiri Erina had heard of the reputation of these four restaurants on the second floor, but she didn't know that they were so good. Not only had they produced top-notch chefs, there should have been many top-notch chefs working for them.
It must be said that this is because the Chinese food industry is too unique. It is too lazy to communicate with the food industry in other countries and does not participate in international cooking competitions. Without the support of the results of international cooking competitions, even if there are foreign gourmets who have tasted it in the Central Plains Chinese cuisine is highly praised, and the culinary circles in other countries do not take it seriously.
After all, you see, there isn’t even a Michelin-starred restaurant in the Central Plains. How can this be said about how great Chinese cuisine is?
As everyone knows, the Chinese food chef community does not look down on Michelin stars at all, and I heard that Chinese food chefs like to watch people cook. Experienced chefs can analyze the taste of the guests just by looking at them, and then make dishes that suit the guests' tastes. Food, and one of the most important criteria for Michelin restaurant stars is to eat the same taste of food at all times. A restaurant with the same taste every day is not enough for them, no matter how delicious the food is!
Therefore, no restaurant in the Central Plains has been rated by Michelin for so many years, which makes many people who are superstitious about Michelin stars always think that the Central Plains is a food desert. However, everyone who knows about it knows that the waters of the Chinese food industry are very deep.
Moreover, the Central Plains is really good at retaining people. After many foreign gourmets came to the Central Plains, they never came back. Their weight continued to increase by several kilograms every year and they couldn't stop it. This is no better explanation of the principles of Chinese raw materials than Michelin stars. Charming?
