"Is that guy the guy who was rumored to have restored the 'Five Immortals Soup'?"
Tokugawa Fengden watched with interest as Luo Tianhe carefully picked up the black box and transferred it to his cooking table.
There is a slight hint of theater in the eyebrows.
"I heard that in the middle of cooking, a lot of poisonous gas will be released in order to exert its toxicity."
"In such a wide open place, with so many spectators, if something happens, the Nakiri family will lose face."
Although he said that he would not argue with Senzaemon, Tokugawa Fuden couldn't help but laugh at him when this happened.
With the intention of watching a show, I wanted to see how Nakiri Senzaemon would deal with it.
And Senzaemon also considered this matter, wondering if someone would take action later.
Although this is a booth arranged by IGO, just as Tokugawa Fuden said that Kyoto Imperial Palace is the territory of the Nakiri family, he also thought so as a matter of course.
If something happens here, especially if something happens when he is present, I will not hesitate to slap him in the face.
At this time, Toyotomi Taki, who had been pretending to be dead, spoke.
IGO's preparations are very complete. It is impossible for Nakiri Senzaemon to be inspired to take action. That is to think that IGO is useless.
"You two adults, don't worry, both cooking tables have been specially modified."
"When chef Luo Tianhe is cooking, the high-efficiency smoke will be activated without wind, and no toxins will leave the range of the cooking table."
"Our people have tried it many times during rehearsals."
Nakiri Senzaemon nodded and smiled at the Toyotomi boy's statement.
"I hope it will be as you said, otherwise it will be a joke and it will not only disgrace the IGO Kyoto Imperial Headquarters."
It's not meant to be a threat, nor is it useful.
If Toyotomi Taki cannot do his job well, even if Nakiri Senzaemon doesn't need to take action, there will be not a few people in IGO Kyoto Royal eyeing his position.
If something is done well, the leader will naturally take the greatest credit.
But if it doesn't get done well, it won't be a problem that can be solved by just pushing people away.
"Ha, Tiji is still confident."
Toyotomi Taki naturally knew what the Demon King of Food meant, and looked at the cooking tables on both sides.
But unlike Luo Tianhe, who still had some understanding of his actions, Zhao Fuyu's cuisine seemed to be different from any type he had seen before.
In other words, he has never seen a technique where various ingredients must be mashed into paste from the very beginning!
...
"What does he want to do?"
Not to mention Toyotomi Taki, even Nakiri Erina, who had seen Zhao Fuyu's braised mullet egg soup before, was completely confused by Zhao Fuyu's cooking methods.
After a large number of crabs were cleaned and slaughtered, they were put into a large tank with salt and smashed continuously.
No one can tell what kind of action he is preparing to make.
Only Nakiri Senzaemon, who has dabbled a lot, vaguely felt that this was a method of making crab sauce, but what kind of cuisine would add crab sauce?
But Zhao Fuyu ignored the surprise of these people, but still firmly smashed these fresh flower crabs into pieces after removing the gills and hearts and washing them clean.
Then he continued to sprinkle in sea salt, as if he was marinating the crabs on the spot.
When the inside of the big tank was already turbid, and the crabs could not be seen at all, instead a lot of blue-gray liquid came out.
Zhao Fuyu sprinkled some purple petals in and then closed the lid again.
Let these crab residues continue to combine with sea salt, and then smash them.
But it's not crabs, but fruits. With coconut juice as the base, fruits with a lot of water in themselves, such as pears, apples, and sugar cane, are also smashed into pieces with wooden sticks.
Of course, this time we did not let the fruit juice oxidize and turn black. Instead, we used gauze to remove all the fruit juice and filter it, and then put it in a ceramic bowl.
It was pushed directly into the steamer and started to stew.
This is also the only thing in Zhao Fuyu's early work that seems to be related to making soup.
Soon Zhao Fuyu began a cycle of putting in various ingredients, grinding them, taking them out and leaving them.
Such a simple and violent method also makes many people confused.
Why do you do this? What is the principle?
Also because there was only one method for a long time, the camera on Zhao Fuyu's side was quickly turned around, and only a few fixed cameras were still recording Zhao Fuyu's every move.
A few people who were interested in Zhao Fuyu's cooking skills stayed.
Everyone else began to turn around, looking towards Luo Tianhe, who was obviously more dangerous and exciting.
Moreover, from the comments of several judges, the audience also knew what this big man who was not easy to mess with was going to cook.
It's the 'Five Immortals Soup'!
In fact, this is a cooking technique spread from southwestern Zhongzhou and western Hunan. The purpose is to combat the humid and hot weather and fight fire with fire.
No one thought that in the hands of the cook, a recipe that used poison to counteract each other to create a wonderful and delicious taste was created.
However, the risk of this kind of cooking is also quite high.
After all, the Five Immortals...are actually the Five Poisons.
This kind of danger is not only for tasters, but also has very strict requirements for cooks.
So after an accident, the recipe for Wu Xian Soup was no longer complete, and gradually this dish was lost. Only a few gourmets of the older generation who had tasted this dish still remembered the deliciousness of this dish until they died, and they often talked about it.
This makes the legend of "Five Immortals Soup" particularly popular in the Eastern culinary world.
No one thought that this time, a chef with a special chef's level would hope to recreate this legendary recipe!
...
Centipede, scorpion, toad, poisonous snake, gecko.
These are the traditional five poisons, which are the raw materials of Wuxian Tang, but Luo Tianhe obviously does not simply stop there.
In fact, when the original 'Five Immortal Soup' was lost, the scope of these five poisons was only a reference.
After all, the key to the recipe lies in the mutual complementation of toxicities, and the strange and delicious food that is derived after the toxicity is completely resolved after cooking.
Luo Tianhe lifted up the black cloth on several boxes, and what the audience could see were toads, poisonous snakes, centipedes, and scorpions. These four poisons were constantly swimming inside.
Especially the toads and poisonous snakes seemed to be very wild, and they were still hitting the box.
And in the centipede's box, there was even a dead big rooster.
Looking from a distance, the colorful centipede, which is as thick as an average person's forearm, shuttles back and forth in the body of the big rooster, trying not to penetrate anyone.
But it was this somewhat terrifying scene that suddenly increased the ratings by a few percentage points, making the TV station that broadcast the incident overjoyed.
It even switched from several camera positions to show the boxes on Luo Tianhe's cooking table.
Faintly, because of Zhao Fuyu's reputation as the uncrowned king, the audience who believed that his opponent had no hope of victory seemed to begin to expect that this cook, who was also from Zhongzhou, could compete with Zhao Fuyu.
He even found another way to make Zhao Fuyu fail once!
With such expectations in mind, everyone's enthusiasm for watching Luo Tianhe's cooking grew stronger and stronger.
