"Well, I can't tell you."
Kasumigaoka Shiyu sighed.
To be honest, she also felt a strong sense of oppression at the beginning of "United Shogun".
As Yan Kai said, the venue is owned by Nagi Kiri, the ingredients and tools are prepared by Nagi Kiri, and the audience is also on the side of Nagi Kiri's "gourmet central organ". Even the WGO, as a judge, also works with Nagi Kiritaka has an unclear relationship. Although Kasumigaoka Shiu came to cheer up Nakiri Erina and has been encouraging Nakiri Erina, she really has no expectations for Nakiri Erina to win in the end. .
Perhaps as Yan Kai said, justice is trustworthy only when it is held in one's own hands.
Under various operations that made Nakiri Kiku furious, the gap between those who supported the "Rebel" team and those who supported the "Gourmet Central Organization" was rapidly narrowing.
Originally, there were only a dozen or so students who were vomited blood on the side of the "Rebel" team, plus Kasumigaoka Shiu, and the more than 600 students in the audience were all on the side of the "Gourmet Central Organization". Later, the old boss led a group of distant students. The entrance of Yueyue graduates led about a hundred Yuanyue students to switch to the "Rebel" team.
Later, the on-site staff turned against Yan Kai's words. Although there were only a dozen on-site staff, the number of employees on the entire island was quite considerable. After all, there was a seafood base outlying the island, and there were hundreds of workers there. , the workers in the seafood base came and took turns to enjoy the benefits as the staff in the venue rushed to leave.
They are all colleagues working in the same place, and they always look up and see each other. If you hide such a good thing, you will definitely be retaliated against at some point, and you also have the idea of pulling everyone into the water and then not being punished.
Faced with this situation, Nakiri Thistle was shocked and angry.
He knows very well that even if all the staff on the remote island are included, the number of people supporting the "Rebel" team will never exceed the students who support him. However, this is a trend that shows that Totsuki Academy has not been included in his group at all. Under control, this is a manifestation of his lack of control over the academy.
Think about it, if the person standing in his position at this time is Nakiri Senzaemon, even if those employees have Kitayama Anki to support them, who would dare to stand against him? The behavior of those staff members can be regarded as "the lower class restrains the superior" in the Japanese workplace, and he was the one who was restrained!
Nakiri Tsubasa originally thought that the only people in Totsuki Academy who opposed him were the "princes" of separate factions, such as Totsuki Resort and Nakiri International, but he didn't expect that even the lowest-level employees didn't take him seriously.
He came back to Japan and spent a lot of effort to convince the six "Top Ten" members. He originally thought that after moving to Totsuki, he would be a great influencer in Japan's culinary industry. Ambition has been hit hard.
However, he will not admit defeat just like this. The "United Shogun" is not over yet, and he still has a chance to make a comeback!
Nakiri Thistle turned his attention to his beloved daughter.
As long as he masters the "God's Tongue", he still has the right to speak in the Japanese cuisine world. It will only take some time to establish his personal prestige. He can afford to wait!
Yes, everything will be different when Erina comes back to me, and when the current first-year students graduate, they will all be my staunch supporters. They are all children of major Japanese restaurants and catering companies. As long as I get the support of the family behind them, the Japanese cuisine world will be my world in the future, and my dream will definitely come true!
Nakiri Thistle's eyes became intense.
Feeling the strange gaze, Nakiri Erina was slightly stunned. The hand that added the seasoning shook and she added an extra drop of soy sauce to the cooked food.
With a frown, Nakiri Erina turned off the gas and discarded the pot of food.
At this time, she was facing one or two of the "Ten Elites", and even her teammate Tian Sohui. She didn't intend to lose to anyone, so even if it was just a very trivial flaw, she would never win. Allowed to appear.
After canceling the meal, Nakiri Erina did not immediately start the second round, but fell into deep thought.
Three hours of cooking time is relatively abundant. After all, the previous "Shokuji" only had two hours, but no matter how much time you have, you can't waste it. Nakiri Erina knows this truth, but she is At this time, I chose to stop and meditate.
She didn't give up on "Shikoku", but she was thinking, could her cooking really be better than the other three contestants?
The "white knight on the table" Si Yingshi, the master of rare ingredients Kobayashi Ryodan, and the descendant of the Central Plains God of Cooking Tian Suohui, any one of these three people is a strong rival to her.
She has tasted both Si Yingshi's and Kobayashi Rgentan's dishes. She can only say that they are worthy of their first and second place rankings. They are indeed the strongest among Totsuki's students, even after special training. My own chance of winning against them is only 30% to 40%.
And Tasokoe... Nakiri Erina also didn't expect that the student who was once expelled from school has now grown to a point where even she can't figure it out.
She took a few grains from Yan Kai's share of yesterday's Crystal Sour Pork to taste. After eating it, Nakiri Erina felt very uncomfortable because she found that the food she cooked was not as good as Tagoe's.
"With the extraordinary taste of the 'God's Tongue', you have a unique talent in cooking, but also because the 'God's Tongue' can magnify any defects in the dishes, it makes you overly pursue the exquisiteness of the dishes when cooking. Perfect. You have already achieved the ultimate in 'addition'. How about taking a step back and trying 'subtraction'?"
This is what Yan Kai said to Nakiri Erina when they lived in Mingshan Apartment, but when Nakiri Erina asked Yan Kai what "addition" and "subtraction" were, Yan Kai pretended Mysterious, don't tell her anything, just let Nakiri Erina understand it by yourself.
This bastard from the Central Plains knows how to cheat!
Nakiri Erina was so angry that her teeth itched but she was helpless, and then she thought of Tazoe again.
Last night, the members of the "Rebel" team held an internal "Sokuji" competition. It was originally a competition between the contestants who had not been eliminated. In the end, even the eliminated Megijima Fuyusuke and Kuga Teruki also She joined in because of her technical skills, but in the end, Erina Nakiri overwhelmed the third-year and second-year seniors and won a spot in the finals with her undisputed perfect cooking.
Nakiri Erina is serious and her cooking is perfect!
At the last moment, Tadokoro, who had regained her strength, made a dish in order to follow the crowd. It was just a very ordinary shredded pork with green pepper. It is the most basic dish in Sichuan cuisine, but it is such a simple dish, and Nakiri Erina The carefully prepared high-end French cuisine was recognized by everyone and was rated as the best cuisine. It also received a spot in the finals, which puzzled Nakiri Erina.
The cooking method is obviously very simple, and there was a failure during the production process, but why is the green pepper shredded pork made by Tadokoro so delicious?
Moreover, when tasting Tazoe's cuisine, Nakiri Erina felt a unique warmth from it, just like the warm breeze of spring, refreshing.
"Ms. Erina, to be honest, I don't know why this is the case. But after turning on the 'super touch', I found that the techniques we usually use when cooking are too complicated, which will lead to many mistakes. and mistakes, so I can only choose to cook in the simplest way, so that the possibility of making mistakes will be much less."
This is what the latter said when Nakiri Erina asked Tadokoro how to make the distinctive green pepper shredded pork.
"Super touch", according to Yan Kai, touch is actually a very important sensory ability for a chef, especially in the cooking process. Its importance is even more important than taste and smell. The strength of the heat, The amount of condiments added and the changes in ingredients are all controlled by touch. Tadokoro's "super touch" helps her maximize the role of touch, allowing her to grow countless muscles while cooking. With her pair of "eyes", no matter how subtle the changes are, she cannot escape her perception. During the cooking process, all variables will be precisely controlled by her, so that she can naturally produce flawless dishes.
Therefore, although the dishes made by Tadokoro may look simple, they have unparalleled craftsmanship inside.
There are too many mistakes and omissions...Is this why you want me to do "subtraction"?
Nakiri Erina murmured in her mind as she connected the two things.
Thinking of this, Nakiri Erina began to prepare the ingredients again.
If what Yan Kai and Tian Sohui said are right, then cooks like her cannot actually perfectly control the ingredients. The ingredients have undergone changes far beyond imagination during the cooking process. Such changes would not be possible without " Ability like "super touch" will only be given back to her after she eats it, but by this time it will be too late.
It is said that high-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking method, which is to maximize the variables during cooking - it does not require adding much deliciousness to the ingredients, at least not destroying the original taste of the ingredients, because high-end ingredients have their own taste That's great.
French cuisine and Japanese cuisine are cuisine systems that pay great attention to ingredients. Among them, Nakiri Erina is good at French cuisine.
What Tadokoro is good at now is Chinese raw material cooking. Chinese raw material cooking is broad and profound. Does she pay attention to the ingredients? Be particular! But is it just about the ingredients?
Are you kidding me? The essence of Chinese food cooking is that no matter what ingredients you bring, I can make them look amazing for you!
Many ingredients that are discarded by other cuisines, such as animal offal and even offal, can be turned into delicacies in the hands of Chinese raw materials.
This may be because Chinese raw materials are unique in the processing of ingredients.
It seems that she must cook something different this time, otherwise she will be overpowered by others!
Nakiri Erina began to cook with a new idea, while the "Gourmet Central Organization" team fought aside. After the initial running-in period, these eight people finally began to work together, and the speed of cooking suddenly became faster.
The so-called running-in is actually...
"Xiao Xiongjing, help me get the flour."
"By the way, there is also buckwheat flour. There is not enough buckwheat flour. Go to the warehouse and get it for me!"
"Xiao Gu, don't be stunned, help me look at the pot! If it's overcooked, I'll kill you!"
"Xiao Gu, don't rush to help Kabuto yet, help me boil the soup!"
"Xiao Gu, where are the vegetables I asked you to chop? Why are your hands and feet so slow! Really, all the second graders now..."
"Where are the Xiongjing people? Why are you so slow to pick up something? Are you lazy somewhere? This useless thing!"
The other "Top Ten" contestants headed by Akane Kubomomo used the two elites of the "Gourmet Central Organization" who were added to the team battle as handymen. In this way, the conflict between the six people was relieved, but the two suffered a lot. The elite known as the "Central Organization of Gourmet Food".
Shigemichi Kumai and Mea Aoi, these two second-year top students, really have no temper at all in front of the "Top Ten" members. They were turned into tops by six "Top Ten" players, spinning without stopping. But even so, he still had to be scolded by Akane Kubomomo and other six "Top Ten" contestants.
Obviously, when they first learned that they were going to form a team with the "Ten Elites" to participate in a team battle, Shigemichi Kumai and Mea Aoi thought that they finally had the opportunity to stand out. They imagined that they would perform well at this time and wait until the third grade. After the seniors graduated, they could fill their seats and become the new "Top Ten", but they were called to work as handymen. No wonder the other third-year seniors who received the order declined, thinking that they were kindly giving the opportunity to the juniors. , it turned out that I had guessed that this would happen a long time ago!
Poor Shigemichi Kumai and Mea Aoi are both elites of the "Central Gourmet Agency". They made great contributions to the "Central Gourmet Agency" during the "Remnants Hunting" activity, but now they have become like handymen at the mercy of others. .
They spent the whole night coming up with recipes, hoping to shine in the team battle, but in the end they were not even qualified to cook. In order to maximize efficiency, their cooking qualifications had been taken away by six "Top Ten" contestants. No, they are just two emotionless handymen now.
On the other hand, on the "Rebel" team, every player is happily making dishes, and they are doing so without restraint.
When someone orders, they cook according to the customer's preference. When no one orders, they cook according to their own preference. While cooking, they chat with the onlookers. It's fun and the atmosphere is good. You help each other. To help you, there is no absolute backbone, but it seems so harmonious.
For a moment, both Kumai Shigemichi and Aoi Meaya began to envy each other.
"Hey, Xiong Jing, Liang Jing! What are you two doing here? Why don't you come and help me! I'm too lazy to kill you!"
The movements of the two men's hands stopped for a moment, and the six "Top Ten" players began to yell at them.
Hey, why are my days in the "Food Central Organization" not as good as before...
