"Even I have only heard about the reputation of being the best in the world, and have not really tasted it all."
"According to rumors, there are a total of 108 dishes for the Man-Han Banquet, and all of them are the best of the best. Even if none of them uses dream ingredients, they are still the best in the world."
Nakiri Senzaemon looked towards the kitchen, and his chat with Yukihira Seiichiro was not hidden, but their mouths did not move at all, and even the sounds they made were within a small area, and would not leak out at all.
“The beauty of this yellow croaker soup lies in the fusion of the fish meat and the soup inside.”
"The freshness is added to the freshness, and the freshness is added to the freshness. The delicacies of mountains and seas are gathered together in one bite."
Hearing Senzaemon's comments, Seiichiro didn't care and just smiled and sighed.
"Seeing the Buyeo boy reminds me of the unquenchable passion I had in Towol."
Tasting some other flavors from the words, Senzaemon looked at the now somewhat decadent middle-aged man.
"Seiichiro, you are still young. I am really sad both physically and mentally. It is difficult for me to stay at peace..."
Seiichiro Yukihira did not comment on the complaints of Nakiri Senzaemon, who had already entered the realm of the king of gourmet food and lived a very long life.
But from the old man's words, he also discovered something.
It seemed that the 'Eating Demon King' didn't realize that Zhao Fuyu was no ordinary special chef.
'Then... maybe I can take some more time off and go abroad to deal with some personal matters? '
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. Seiichiro Yukihira naturally knew the current situation in the world, but he had been slacking off for a long time. If he really wanted to make a breakthrough again, the best way would be to follow the traces of the past and walk around again.
And this time, he won't tell anyone, not even Yukihira Soma.
"Actually, old man, you can take a longer view."
"For example, this one is pretty good..."
Holding the cigarette to his lips, he did not light it, but savored it slowly. He nodded in the direction of Zhao Fuyu as if joking. Seiichiro Yukihira still had a lazy look on his eyebrows.
"Or, that brat of mine will be old enough to go to Yuanyue in a few months. I'll let you see it then, old man."
"Why do you always focus on me?"
Hearing this rebuttal, Senzaemon only had a glint in his eyes.
"Even if you do this, how long can you dodge?"
"You should know...it's all going to start soon!"
Waving his hand, Seiichiro was unimpressed by the Food Demon King's caution.
"Even if it is about to start, it has not started yet. We have enough time to look forward to the growth of the new generation."
"Old man, your direction was wrong from the beginning."
"The new generation is the seeds. We...were just big trees that were born in a wrong era and provided shelter for these seeds in advance."
Without rejecting Seiichiro's words, Senzaemon looked at him deeply and then glanced at Zhao Fuyu in the kitchen.
"Seeds... I don't deny it, but they are still too immature now."
"If you want me to agree with your idea, then show me the proof!"
The power spread all over his body, and just sitting with his arms folded across his chest, the terrifying aura of the Food Demon King still made people feel as heavy as Mount Tai and the vast sea.
Under the pressure, even Seiichiro Yukihira couldn't help but feel his whole body stagnant, but he soon recovered, and a breath like boiling fire enveloped him.
"Then let's see..."
"Can Fuyu boy's food make your real clothes explode, old man?"
"how?!"
"If he fails to do it, I will go back to Yuanyue immediately to help you."
"But if he did it ... for two years, I wouldn't go back."
Upon hearing Seiichiro's conditions, a look of thought flashed in his eyes, and Nakiri Senzaemon quickly made his decision.
"good!"
"I made a bet with you!"
Then he turned his attention to Zhao Fuyu's location.
You need to know what it means to have Seiichiro Yukihira bet on himself for it. Even Nakiri Senzaemon is looking forward to what kind of surprise this young special chef can bring him.
'Did the clothes really explode? '
'I haven't had that kind of experience in almost ten years! '
Silently muttering a piece of news that, if exposed, would probably shock the entire Dongying cooking world.
Nakiri Senzaemon, who was quietly watching Zhao Fuyu's cooking, seemed to be covered with a layer of frosty gauze, cutting him off from the outside world.
...
Rare ingredients are soaked every day, such as dried abalone, scallops, ginseng, shrimp, fish maw, shark's fin, skirt, bird's nest and other expensive items. Even many high-end Zhongzhou cuisine restaurants do not always have them in stock.
Many times, this is the reason why some dishes need to be reserved by phone in advance. These things take a long time to soak and process.
Coupled with the high price, even those high-end restaurants will not always stock them unless their menus feature these ingredients as the main dishes.
Even so, there won't be such a complete quantity.
Only Zhao Fuyu can use the food he has cooked to exchange for ingredients, so he always has all the ingredients prepared in his restaurant without worrying about waste.
This is just the right time to make this 'yellow croaker in soup'!
The greasy tendons have been cooked in a pressure cooker for a while, and then they are ready for soup.
In fact, there are always two pots of soup in his restaurant, one for top soup and one for stock, which are used when cooking.
But if you want to cook a perfect soup-filled yellow croaker, especially the recipe that Zhao Fuyu had in mind, then the two-pot soup that has been cooked for a long time and releases all the umami factors is not suitable.
Although long-term stewing makes the soup taste more mellow, it also causes problems.
That is, in terms of taste, it does not match the freshness of the ingredients.
It will cause a difference in umami flavor and a conflict between old and new flavors.
Therefore, if you want to make the perfect 'soup-filled yellow croaker' in Zhao Fuyu's mind, you need to make even the soup from scratch.
A three-yellow chicken, a quail, and a pigeon, all three leaving breast meat.
Then cut the rest into pieces and blanch them in water, then start stewing them in a pot. You don’t need to put anything in. Just simmer onions, ginger, celery leaves, and a lot of water in one pot.
It doesn’t even take too long, just use a pressure cooker for half an hour and then boil it on low heat.
Do not cook over high heat. Stew over low heat and use the pressure of the pressure cooker to bring out the flavor of the meat and bones while also preventing the soup from becoming too turbid.
As for the flavor impact caused by pressure cooker cooking, Zhao Fuyu is actually pursuing the reduction of umami in the soup.
Because only if the simple soup is lacking in flavor, he can use other means to make up for it by using the deliciousness of other ingredients.
To achieve perfect harmony between the proportions of various ingredients.
If the umami flavor of all the ingredients is very prominent, and there is no order or strength, then it will be like stuffing a mouthful of MSG water into your mouth.
It seems to be quite impactful, but in fact, it is a kind of taste bud torture for any diners.
When Zhao Fuyu's methods fell into the eyes of the Food Demon King and that Shura, they couldn't help but admire him.
"Today's young people only know how to add more flavor to their food, but do not consider the harmony of taste."
"There are very few people who know how to reduce the flavor of ingredients to make the dishes more harmonious and more delicious..."
Senzaemon's comments also made Seiichiro Yukihira nod in approval.
Even though it may seem like just a way to increase or decrease the taste, there are actually hidden secrets that even many special chefs don’t fully understand.
This also gave him more confidence that Zhao Fuyu could better demonstrate the soup-filled yellow croaker!
But as soon as his thoughts came to his mind, the voice of the Food Demon King sounded in his ears again.
"It's just a pity..."
"This kind of practice is a kind of torture for diners."
"Any dish is a failure if it cannot be served in time!"
The food demon held out a finger.
"One and a half hours, if within one and a half hours, Fuyu can't finish this dish."
"Then even if it is completed, points will be deducted."
"It's not perfect."
The two people's unconcealed words fell into the ears of Zhao Fuyu in the kitchen, but they did not change the rhythm of his hands and feet.
But an idea has already arisen in Zhao Fuyu's mind.
'An hour and a half? '
There was a sparkle in his eyes, and then a confident and domineering air enveloped the entire kitchen, making the beautiful eyes of Busujima Saeko, who had been paying attention to Zhao Fuyu, flash a hint of fascination.
'enough! '
