Facts have proved that Nakiri Thistle and Nakiri Erina are worthy of being father and daughter. Yan Kaiming clearly felt the emotions of joy and relief from him, but the words he said were so harsh.
Uncle, Tsundere has retired from the environment...
Yan Kai glanced at Erina Nakiri and saw that the capitalist lady's eyes seemed to be spitting fire. Fortunately, she didn't have a kitchen knife in her hand, otherwise she might have stabbed her with one knife.
The "United Shoji" has come to an end at this point, but one person does not want to accept such a result.
"Wait a minute, three judges, can you tell me where I lost?"
Si Yingshi stepped forward and asked the judges.
The current "Ten Elites", recognized as the strongest among Yuanyue students, actually got fourth in this melee. It was difficult for him to accept such a result. He needed an explanation.
"How do you say this..."
As the main judge, Kitayama Xingyi felt that it was her time to speak. She rested her elbows on the table, intertwined her fingers, and rested her chin on her hands, with a solemn look on her face.
The main reason is that she knows the answer to this question. Yan Kai told her, hehe!
When Yan Kai saw her like this, he knew, well, this guy is going to start pretending again.
"I'm sorry, all the other contestants' dishes have been eaten. If I could let you taste their dishes, I think you would understand."
Kitayama Xingyi said regretfully.
Originally, many students had the habit of making a meal for the other contestant in addition to the judges during the "Eating Halberd" competition. However, this time it was a four-person melee. If we continue to follow this habit, it would be tantamount to asking the other contestants to cook. It would be too time-consuming for all the contestants to make six dishes within the competition time. And it would be too rude to make only one dish and let the other contestants share one dish, so the four of them agreed tacitly not to make one in the end. For extra cooking, leave all judgments to the judges.
"In that case, let me just say a few words." Kitayama Xingyi looked at Si Yingshi and said, "Master Si, your food has no temperature."
"It's impossible. My salted cauldron venison is sealed with a salt wall. The salt wall will seal in the temperature of the venison. There's no way it won't be warm."
Si Yingshi shook his head very seriously.
"No, it's not that temperature. What I'm talking about is the temperature of the cook. I didn't see the temperature of the cook named 'Si Yingshi' in your cuisine."
Beishan Xingyi shook his head slightly.
"Kobayashi Gingou, Tagokoe, and Nakiri Erina, these three contestants, in their cooking, I can feel a unique imprint and passion for cooking, but in your cooking, I All I can feel is the emptiness, and your food is cold!"
"The temperature of the cook?" Si Yingshi frowned. He simply couldn't understand what Beishan Xingyi said.
Isn’t cooking just about making the most of the flavors of the ingredients? He has always done this, and he has gradually become one of the "Top Ten" with this concept. During this process, no one has ever told him that cooking requires the so-called "temperature".
"Using flowers as a metaphor, Contestant Megumi Tanoko's cooking is orchids, delicate and elegant, and contains magic. Contestant Erina Nakiri's cooking is jasmine, which looks ordinary at first glance, but is rich in fragrance. And Contestant Kobayashi Ritsou's cooking... "
Beishan Xingyi suddenly paused.
"Where's mine? Where's my cooking?"
Kobayashi Gentian shouted.
Don't stop talking when it comes to her!
"You...you are a strange flower, unique, strange and beautiful!"
Beishan Xingyi said helplessly that she couldn't think of any other way to describe Kobayashi Gentian other than weird.
It is obviously called Gentian, but none of the three flower languages of the Gentian flower can be found in Gentian kobayashi. It can only be said that Gentian kobayashi is a strange flower that grows wildly.
"Oh, that's weird! Hee hee!"
Kobayashi Ryokan readily accepted this description.
Well, the main reason is that she didn't know that the word "weird" was already bad in the Central Plains, so she accepted Kitayama Xingyi's evaluation of "weird and beautiful".
"And Contestant Si Yingshi..." Kitayama Xingyi paused again, looked at Si Yingshi and said, "You are the most beautiful and exquisite among all flowers, but compared to other flowers, you lack the beauty of flowers. Soul—fragrance, you, are a plastic flower!”
"If I eat your food alone, even I think it is very delicious. In terms of various details and the use of ingredients, you have almost reached the extreme. It can be said to be flawless, perfect... like those industrial products. !”
Beishan Xingyi said regretfully.
"I'm... a plastic flower?"
Si Yingshi's face turned green. He never imagined that his cooking would be evaluated as a "plastic flower".
Kobayashi Ringtong sighed and put his hand on Si Yingshi's shoulder: "Si, it's okay. Plastic flowers are plastic flowers. At least plastic flowers won't fade, right?"
Are you so comforting?
Si Yingshi looked at Xiaolin Gentian helplessly. Is this woman's nerves iron-clad?
Seeing that Si Yingshi's expression was still not good, Kobayashi Gentian tentatively said: "How about adding some industrial flavor?"
"..."
Si Yingshi remained silent.
Can I trouble you, if you don’t know how to comfort people, just don’t comfort them casually?
After Beishan Xingyi commented on Si Yingshi, Yan Kai suddenly said: "The lack of 'aroma' is only a problem. The bigger problem is that your road is narrow. There are endless ingredients in the world, and the road to delving into cooking skills is It should be a Yangguan Road, but I saw you walking on a single-plank bridge, which makes me quite confused."
Beishan Xingyi suppressed the shock and secretly glared at Yan Kai.
The answer you gave me was incomplete!
Ignoring Beishan Xingyi, Yan Kai continued: "You always pursue perfection in your dishes, but cooking is not a math problem, and the answer is not unique. Starting from the fact that you only pursue the only answer means that you are trapping yourself. We are on a narrow road, and the further you go down, the narrower the road becomes, and in the end there is no way forward.”
"Let me ask you, how long has it been since you made any progress?"
Yan Kai looked at Si Yingshi.
Si Yingshi's body was shaken.
Yes, how long has it been since he made progress? Ever since he became one of the "Top Ten" and became the strongest among the current students of Totsuki Academy, he has been spending his time on cooking day by day, but he has not felt any progress for a long time.
He thought it was a problem with the diners. After he became one of the "Top Ten", he participated in any competitions, received any guests, and people who ate his food would only praise him, but they could not comment on his food perfectly, so in After Nakiri Thistle came to him to promote his ideas to him, he joined him without hesitation.
Being able to be freed from the busy work of the "Top Ten" and using the "God's Tongue" for his own use, for Si Yingshi, there is no more favorable condition than this.
But now, Yan Kai told him another answer to the stagnant cooking skills. It was because he was complacent and narrowed the path forward.
"Let's see..." Yan Kai stood up from his seat and walked down from the judges' table, "The original intention of the team battle is to allow the Yuanyue students who have been standing there for a few days to share the cooking..."
No, you just want to slap those students in the face.
Beishan Xingyi rolled her eyes.
Because Yuanyue students said Yan Kai's judgment was unfair, Yan Kai asked the students who were the audience to become judges. Then they proved one thing with practical actions, that is, there is no fairness at all in the face of interests.
Otherwise, why would more than 80% of the students refuse to even go to the "Rebel" team to taste the food, and stick to the "Food Center Agency"? What about justice? It’s not like you just do things in your own interests!
Well, they are just a bunch of brats after all, otherwise they should go to the "Rebel" team to eat something, even if it's just for show.
Of course, Yan Kai also took the opportunity to teach them another lesson, that is, having more people does not mean power. Even if they gathered so many people to support the "Culinary Central Organization", they still lost to six people in the end. .
"...But as far as the results are concerned, it seems that most people are not full."
Yan Kai looked at the students.
Most of them only ate one or two portions of the food, and some didn't even eat one.
After all, the "Top Ten" level dishes are not available at all times. This is a rare opportunity for free. Competition is almost inevitable, and naturally there will be students who can't compete with others.
"If you don't mind, let me make a snack for everyone to fill your stomach!"
Yan Kai finally said.
As soon as this statement came out, some students immediately started whispering.
A dish? Is this a joke? In the entire venue, there were more than 600 students alone. Counting the graduates and staff invited by the boss, the number was about 700. Yan Kai satisfied so many of them with a dish... This is not a joke. !
"Mr. Nakiri, are you ready with all the things I asked you to prepare?"
Yan Kai asked Nakiri Senzaemon how he said it.
"Of course, it was prepared early in the morning."
Nakiri Senzaemon nodded, then waved his hand, and the staff who were working for Nakiri Thistle immediately responded and carried out a huge cauldron with a diameter of about three meters and a steamer of the same size.
Then three more staff came over on carts, each carrying three slaughtered two-headed crows.
After seeing all this, Nakiri Thistle's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
This group of staff were still working for themselves just now. Now that the "Culinary Central Organization" has lost and the "Top Ten" seats have changed hands, they immediately turned their heads to serve Nakiri Senzaemon without having to brew any feelings. Of?
Yes, after all, this is a nation that can seamlessly transition between "one hundred million pieces of jade" and "welcoming the king's master". It is strange to expect them to cry in tears or lose their jade pieces when someone changes their salary. matter.
"For the rest, let's borrow the leftover ingredients from the group battle."
Yan Kai rolled up his sleeves and said, then walked towards the operating table belonging to the "Gourmet Central Organ".
Yan Kai tore open a bag of flour and started to add water to knead the dough. After kneading a dough, he weighed the dough in his hands and then suddenly threw it up. The dough flew into the air and expanded like a balloon. After it rose to the highest point, it had become a piece of dough as thin as a cicada's wings that could transmit light, and then gently floated down and landed in the open steamer.
"Time is limited, so I don't need tools."
Yan Kai said lightly.
Wait, if you're in a hurry, shouldn't you use tools to make it easier and faster?
Just when everyone was having such doubts, Yan Kai walked up to the three-headed "two-headed crow" in a few steps, made knife-like gestures with his hands, and waved a few times, and the three complete "two-headed crow" were immediately scattered. The parts of meat and internal organs were perfectly separated and scattered all over the floor.
Hiss...it's really faster without tools!
Those students who had never seen Yan Kai take action were severely shocked. Although those who knew Yan Kai's ability in Tian Suohui were not as shocked as they were, they were also shocked.
Kaijun (Yan Sang) seems to have become more powerful!
There were three "two-headed crows", each of which could hold about one hundred kilograms of meat. Yan Kai cleaned the more than three hundred kilograms of meat, and then punched the pork, and all the pork immediately turned into minced meat.
This punch made the hearts of those Yueyue students tremble.
Can you still cook like this? Can this still be done? What have they learned all these years? What are they?
As Yan Kai processed the huge ball of minced meat in various ways, he put it in the steamer and wrapped it in the gauze-like dough.
"Are you making Shaomai?"
Seeing this, a student finally figured out the trick, but... three whole pigs are used to make meat paste, and this is used to make shaomai... Is he crazy or are we watching crazy?
"This is...that dish!"
Tian Suo Hui had a premonition when she saw the huge steamer. Now that she saw Yan Kai making a huge shaomai, she no longer had any doubts in her heart.
This is the legendary siomai that grandpa said - the universe siomai!
After placing the lid on the steamer on a large pot filled with water, the staff on the side said to Yan Kai: "Um, is it really true that we don't need a stove?"
Yan Kai only asked for a steamer and a large pot, but not the matching stove.
Without a stove, what would be used to cook such a huge pot? Is there firewood in the lower house? Is this a violation of the Fire Protection Act?
"Burning with fire is too slow. I don't have that much time to waste on it."
Yan Kai shook his head slightly.
"Oh, then Yan Sang, how do you plan to continue this cooking?"
Nakiri Senzaemon also became curious.
Yan Kai pressed one hand on the ready steamer and said slowly: "Use your inner strength!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of turbulent steam suddenly appeared from under the steamer. Nakiri Senzaemon was frightened by the sudden hot steam and retreated repeatedly.
At this time, Yan Kai's voice came from the steam: "Originally, if you want to make such a huge shaomai fully cooked, you need to roast it over charcoal fire and then steam it for half an hour. But if you use internal force, you only need to In five minutes, I can steam it whole!”
Steaming such a big siomai in five minutes? Your inner strength is so useful!
Everyone who heard Yan Kai's words swallowed their saliva.
