Seeing the doubts in Nakiri Erina's heart, Uncle Liu smiled and said: "The same ingredient will be different even at different times. You know this, right?"
Nakiri Erina nodded, of course the ingredients will change at different times, otherwise how to extend the best tasting period of the ingredients would not be a big problem.
Precious ingredients are hard to come by. Many times they are not waiting for diners to taste them, but rather require diners to adapt to the ingredients.
Dishes made with precious ingredients must of course not be enjoyed by powerful people. And among those powerful people, except for a few gourmets who regard food as everything, most of them have careers that are more important than enjoyment. For people with special needs, what they need is delicious and time-controllable food. It is impossible for them to wait for a delicious dish!
It’s not about money, it’s about the time they don’t have.
And based on the status of those people, they have almost eaten all the delicacies that can be controlled in time. The main customers of the high-end restaurants opened by Totsuki graduates are them. In the eyes of ordinary people, Totsuki graduates are already "the ultimate in delicious food in the world" For them, raw food is just an ordinary meal. The only things that attract them are those delicacies that are hard to come by and whose best tasting period is easy to miss.
If you are a gourmet, this kind of delicacy exists, and a phone call is enough for them to drop everything and come to taste it. However, most successful people do not do this. Their time is strictly arranged according to the formation. Even if such delicacies were indeed served, they would have to wait to see if the meeting at hand was over. If not, they would wait. And by waiting, the best tasting period would of course be missed.
Yuanyue Group has developed to this point, and the market for those successful gourmets has almost been developed. It is difficult to get more customers to increase their market share. If they want to go further, in addition to exploring overseas markets, they must pry open The mouths of those career-oriented and successful people have become their biggest targets.
Therefore, how to extend the best tasting period of those rare ingredients as much as possible has always been a key project of the Yuanyue Group. It has achieved some success over the years, but problems still exist.
This is also the reason why Nakiri Erina is so interested in Liu Bo's so-called "rejuvenation sword technique". If there is any technology that can restore the ingredients to their best tasting period, such a technology would really be a great weapon.
"All ingredients have differences and similarities. The so-called 'texture of all things' is hidden in the 'sameness'. If you want to see them clearly, you need to process the same ingredient thousands of times." Liu Bo After Nakiri Erina nodded, she continued, "Why did Xiaokai demonstrate to you and the students how to untie the ox at the beginning? Just to show you this!" There is an article called "The Cook Ding Unlocks the Ox" recorded in the Central Plains Taoist classic "Zhuangzi" "" story, there is such a section of the story of Cook Ding in it. He completed a perfect operation of the cow in a short time in front of King Hui of Liang. Afterwards, the King of Liang Hui praised his skills in solving the cow. He replied that he pursued What matters is not the skill but the Tao. When he first slaughtered the cow, what he saw was a complete cow. Three years later, he never saw the whole cow again. In his eyes, the cow was just a combination of parts. And in his eyes, the cow was just a combination of parts. Later, he contacted the cow with his spirit instead of seeing with his eyes. The senses stopped and the spirit was active. According to the natural physiological structure of the cow, he used a thin blade to cut into the gap where the muscles and bones of the cow's body were connected, and followed the joints between the bones. The knife can be inserted into the empty space, so that the cow can be dismantled without any effort. And this is 'to use no thickness to insert the space', truly superior knife skills!"
After speaking, Uncle Liu paused for a moment, rubbed his eyes, and smiled again after rubbing: "And Xiao Kai's hand in making sashimi is the next level of the chef Ding's skill in cutting cattle. In his eyes, the whole piece is like a piece of cake." The beef is no longer a whole, but exists in the form of thin slices, and he just separates them along the texture and veins of the beef."
Uncle Liu spoke very loudly, because these words were not only meant for Nakiri Erina, he also hoped that the students of Totsuki could also hear them and understand the truth behind them.
Cooking brings happiness to people. Unlike martial arts, cooking techniques do not need to be hidden. If possible, he originally hoped to spread more of these techniques that can make food more delicious.
Of course, he would never pass on the cruel and bloody cooking skills that can even distort the mind, such as those in the dark cooking world, under any circumstances. He has adhered to "Inverse Universe" for so many years and never taught it to anyone. Because they are afraid that these dangerous cooking skills will cause harm to the world.
You know, the advanced technologies in the dark cooking world were developed to control people's minds. More than a hundred years ago, the dark cooking world planned to use these cooking skills to control high-ranking officials and even the king of a country in order to achieve their goals. The ambition to rule the Central Plains. In modern society, the age of kings has passed, but countries around the world also have many big figures who are no less powerful than the ancient kings. If they can be controlled, the ambitions that the dark kitchen world could not achieve in the past may be realized in a grander form in modern society. ——that is, world domination.
This is not impossible. You must know that even with the advanced medical science and various detection methods in modern society, it is impossible to detect any problems with the dishes made by Kaiyou with the "Eight Demon-Breaking Formations" because those dishes were not problematic in the first place. , the only problem is that it is too delicious, so delicious that even if you know there is something wrong, you will be attracted to it.
Let me ask, now that communication and travel have become extremely convenient, if the "Dark Five Tigers" were resurrected, under the leadership of Kaiyou, they would not even need to carry out various complicated layouts, and directly open a game that would be enough to attract people. As long as the food feasts of powerful people from all over the world are publicized widely enough and held long enough, sooner or later they can absorb all the powerful people in the world and become puppets controlled by them. After all, who can refuse delicious food, and their delicious food only needs Once you eat it, you will never escape their control.
Even now, Kaiyu, the leader of the dark cooking world, has a magical "eight demon-breaking formations" that can't be broken except for the "Mother Sun Ball" of the Liu family.
It is said that Uncle Liu should have destroyed such evil and dangerous cooking skills long ago, but after all, it is the hard work of his ancestors, and even the cooking skills in the dark cooking world can be used as long as he has a kind heart. On the right path, it’s just that there are too few people with such a kind heart and talent for cooking. After so many years, Uncle Liu only found one person named Tian Suohui, and it was only after investigating for a period of time that Uncle Liu officially transferred "Reverse". "The Universe" was given to her by the professor.
But even so, Uncle Liu had a backup plan, just in case, just in case, just assuming that Tian Suohui went bad in the future and planned to use the techniques of the dark cooking world for evil, Yan Fei and Yan Kai would naturally think of "mother" The power of the Sun Ball" shattered her.
That's right, Uncle Liu had already taught Yan Fei all the secrets of the Liu family, including the "Mother Sun Ball" that was the only one that could restrain the "Eight Demon-Breaking Arrays".
Uncle Liu holds the unique cooking skills of the four "Two Restaurants on the Second Floor". He cannot pass on the unique skills of the other three restaurants to others without the permission of the original owner. However, the one with the highest seniority in Ju Xia Lou is himself. Ju Xia Lou Of course he wanted to teach him his special skills, so Uncle Liu had a great time teaching him. Yan Fei could learn all the cooking skills, and it couldn't be said that it was hard to teach him. He just enjoyed it.
If Tian Suohui makes a mistake one day, the Yan family's father and son, who have the inner strength of the Yang Zhi in the "Tianxia Sutra", don't even need to rely on the power of the Great Wall and the sun like Liu Pleiades did back then. They can be as good as Kai You back then. Cooking with all their strength, they perfectly restored the "Mother's Sun Ball" with their yang internal power. The yang internal power competed with the pure yin internal power to wipe the blackened Tadokoro clean and whiten it.
Of course, judging from Tian Suohui's current performance, Uncle Liu believes that she will be a clean and pure child throughout her life.
Unlike Yan Kai who said "No way, no way, there are people who can't even see the texture and veins of all things", Uncle Liu's explanation was obviously more understandable, and the students all nodded with understanding, and at the same time I'm thinking about how hard I need to practice to reach this level after I go back.
If they just practice hard, none of the Totsuki students here will be afraid. They may be hard at other things, but curling is an instinct engraved in their bones.
"Observe!" Uncle Liu reminded the students after they were thoughtful, "Observe before practicing, and then do it after observing. When you do it, you should also carefully feel the feeling on your hands. Even if you repeat a mechanical movement, There will be no gain even if you try it thousands of times. They are all young people and know how to use their brains better than an old man like me!"
Light, this old gentleman is light!
Yuanyue students all looked at Uncle Liu gratefully.
Compared with the teachers at Totsuki Academy who were seriously lacking in humanity and the inexplicable Yan Kai, people like Uncle Liu were a perfect teacher. His careful teaching and easy-to-understand teaching moved them to death.
At Totsuki Academy, teachers are only responsible for assigning topics and grading them. Lectures are impossible. Recipes can only be explained once. If you don’t understand, just wait to be expelled. Totsuki doesn’t need stupid students like you!
In the following time, Uncle Liu focused on explaining some tips on how to sense the similarities and differences of ingredients.
What he just talked about was "Tao", and what he is explaining now is "Technology". "Tao" is the core of thought and the program of action, which is of course crucial, while "Technology" is the means to embody "Tao", which is actually the same important.
"There is no way but no skills" is easy to go astray, while "there is no way but no skills" is to stay in the same place.
Yan Kai previously demonstrated one-sided "Tao" about knife skills to the students, but did not teach the students "skills". This will of course cause confusion among the students. After all, students like Yan Kai and Xue Wenhai have been practicing knife skills for a long time. Unlike people who have extremely high attainments in "skills", these two monsters can even understand "Tao" at a glance, but even "skills" are still at a very superficial level for the students. Explaining "Tao" to them will not help them. They who know "shu" cannot listen at all. Only by telling them "Tao" and "shu" at the same time can they understand "Tao" after mastering "shu" to a certain extent.
These little tricks explained by Liu Bo are part of the "skill". These little tricks cannot help students immediately master the ability to see the texture and context of all things, but they can help them find the direction of their efforts and reduce a lot of trial and error time.
Uncle Liu said that the students listened, and they all listened very carefully.
At this time, no one doubted Uncle Liu's ability, because some of the little skills mentioned by Uncle Liu were occasionally felt by them when practicing knife skills, but they were not systematic, and they were not as clear as what Uncle Liu said. He regarded it as his own unique skill, but now it was pulled out by Uncle Liu. I felt a little ashamed in my heart, but more importantly, I was happy.
In this morning's class alone, even if their summer training camp was not in vain, the hardships they endured in the previous two days have all paid off.
In addition, they are not grateful to Yan Kai at all, not at all!
As he spoke, Uncle Liu began to rub his eyes more frequently, and his speaking voice was no longer loud. When Yan Kai saw this, he knew that Uncle Liu was tired. Teaching was a very annoying thing, especially when he was facing With so many students, it would take more energy to hear what they said and to hear them clearly. And he was already a dying old man in his nineties. How could he do such an energy-consuming thing for a long time? Can you bear it?
Not to mention teaching Yueyue's students, Liu Bolian can only teach Tian Suohui for about one hour a day now, and his energy will not be able to support it any more.
This is why Yan Kai is dissatisfied with Xue Wenhai for bringing Uncle Liu here. He knows that Uncle Liu likes to promote young chefs. Uncle Liu will be very happy every time there is an outstanding chef in the world, because then there is one more person to spread happiness.
Facing the group of young chefs in Yuanyue, Uncle Liu couldn't control himself at all. Even if his original purpose was just to help Yan Kai out of trouble, when Liu Bo got excited, he would definitely not just mention a few words and be done with it. Sure enough, He talked intermittently for more than half an hour, speaking so directly that others were almost starved of oxygen.
Yan Kai had no choice but to go up and support Uncle Liu, who was already shaking slightly, and said to Erina Nakiri: "Uncle Liu is tired. Please find a room. I will send him to the room to rest."
"Okay, I'll go in person!"
Nakiri Erina said without hesitation.
She also benefited a lot from Uncle Liu's teaching today. No, her talent was one of the highest among Yuanyue students present. Her gain could be said to be the greatest. Of course she was grateful to Uncle Liu and immediately I plan to take Uncle Liu to the most luxurious room in the dormitory.
It was originally scheduled for her grandfather Nakiri Senzaemon to live here when he had free time to recuperate. Now that Uncle Liu is allowed to rest, Nakiri Erina does not feel that the room has been insulted.
As for Nakiri Senzaemon being dissatisfied...
Are you kidding me? How could the gourmet devil who has ruled the Japanese cuisine industry for many years be such a stingy person? Moreover, he also respects Uncle Liu very much. Knowing that Uncle Liu rented his room to rest, he was not happy enough, so how could he be dissatisfied!
