Chapter 158: The Trial with Erina (Part 1)
Pseudo-luminous, and real-luminous dishes are actually very different.
Xia Yu recalled the details that needed to be paid attention to in the "torcang shark fin intestine", but found that there was still some missing "inside and outside".
The so-called "inside" is a hemp rope made of three silks, which is the key to creating the taste of a tornado. Food does not mean that it is just a taste, but it must be delicious enough to allow the taster's tongue to enjoy.
"Outside" is naturally the casing.
The inspiration that Itakesaki gave him was just one of the directions.
"Cass?"
Half of the shark fin sausage on the chopsticks were sent to the fork for chewing. Xia Yu thought to himself: "The unique smoked flavor... This taste is mixed with ham shredded bamboo shoot shredded shark fin strips, and it is indeed a bit abrupt. How can we eliminate this abrupt feeling?"
Adding new ingredients will inevitably integrate the ingredients into the cooking. Xia Yu is thinking, but the rest of the kitchen are feasting. Each person has three shark fins and intestines are obviously just enjoying their mouths.
Yoshino Yuki finished eating first, then stared at the two remaining shark fin intestines on Xia Yu's plate, with water stains clearly visible at the corners of his mouth.
"Xia Yujun, is the topic of eating halberds the shark fin?"
Yise Hui smoothed her furry blonde hair, then looked at the thoughtful Xia Yu.
"Yes, it's shark fin, I plan to use this dish to fight." Xia Yu looked up at the seventh seat of the Ten Masters of the Yuanyue.
Hesitating slightly, Yisehui said, "Xia Yujun, your dish is very creative and impactful, but please don't ignore the essence of the food. It is a bit weak in taste. If you want to ensure victory, be sure to improve this weak link. Disadvantages mean that the enemy is easily caught by the weakness and defeated!"
Yisehui's idea coincides with Xia Yu.
No food is invincible.
The taste is the weakness of the 'torch fin sausage'. If the taste of the shark fin sausage can be made more mellow and brings the tasters not only the frenzy of the moment when biting off the "hemp rope", but also the strong taste that explodes. Then, Xia Yu is invincible in the battle for food and halberds.
The extremely critical battle is related to the survival of Xia’s small shops and even the old shopping streets. Xia Yu secretly held his breath and did it to the extreme if he wanted to do it, and there was no blind spot left!
There is still time!
...
evening.
Xia Yu came out of the backstage of the Examination Hall and stretched his waist long.
The classroom test work was finally over, and finally two hundred qualified people came to the fore. Aoki Sonta sent a text message to arrange the course location and content of the next class. Xia Yu threw the affairs of the palace to Si Yingshi, and he was preparing to rush home to open as usual.
At Yuanyue School Gate, Xia Yu planned to call a taxi to the nearby tram stop, but unexpectedly, when he walked on the street, a black car slowly stopped beside him.
"Get on the car—"
In the rear seat, the window lowered, and the exquisite face of Erina Nakiri appeared in the car with complex colors in her eyes.
Someone drove him away, and Xia Yu was very happy. He immediately opened the door and entered the car, sitting next to Erina.
There was a faint perfume smell in the car. I don’t know if it was emitted from Erina or Shinto Hisako who was driving seriously in the driving position. Xia Yu greeted Hisako, then turned around and looked at Erina, smiling: “Are you going to send a lecturer? What a polite student!”
"lecturer?"
Erina Nakiri curled her lips slightly, "I was just going to go to a Chinese restaurant near the shopping street to try dishes, and then I met a poor worm wandering on the street and sent him home by the way. Don't thank me!"
Xia Yu's mind was full of ideas about recipes. He had no intention of quarreling with her, shook his head, leaned on the soft seat cushion, closed his eyes and immersed himself in his cooking world.
After a quiet journey, half an hour later, when the car finally drove into Taitung District, Erina Nakiri couldn't hold it anymore and suddenly asked: "Are you going to eat a halberd with a five-star chef?"
Upon hearing this, Xia Yu opened his eyes and Shinto Hirosa in the driving seat cast a shocked look. The car shook violently and then resumed driving smoothly.
"Yes, I'm sorry!" Nido Hisako quickly apologized.
Erina Nakiri glanced at him and then stared at the awakened Natsuki.
"Yes, my opponent in the food halberd is a five-star chef." Xia Yu's voice was calm.
The more he looked like this, the more unknown anger he felt was rushing into his chest, and he couldn't help but say coldly, "Do you know how terrible it is to have a five-star chef with the level of a 10th graduate in the Farth Festival?!"
"Don't think that if you defeat Si Yingshi, you can crush a five-star chef on the food halberd by the same means."
Xia Yu couldn't refuse and smiled, "Is it Maki who told you about my halberd food?"
"right!"
"She asked me to help you!"
Speaking of Maki, Erina Nakiri was unexpectedly honest.
"Help me?" Xia Yu raised his eyebrows.
Erina Nakiri didn't explain much, but said to Nito Hisako in the driver's seat: "According to the itinerary, go directly to that Chinese restaurant!"
So, ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of a building at the entrance of Ueno Park.
As soon as the car was parked, someone knocked on the window outside. Erina Nakiri got off the car first, a slightly familiar and calm male voice said with respect and humility: "Miss Nakiri, welcome!"
"Manager Qi?"
Xia Yu got off the car and saw the middle-aged restaurant manager who had been seen once, and was stunned.
Hearing the sound, Qi Nan saw it and was also surprised.
He saw Xia Yu get out of the car and stand behind Erina Nakiri, with a trace of undetectable light flashing through his eyes.
Looking up at the neon sign on the building, the words Danfei Building were clearly reflected in Xia Yu's eyes.
"So it's here..." Xia Yu said intimately.
"Please come in--"
Qi Nan and a group of restaurant chefs wearing white chef uniforms welcomed the group into the elevator and arrived at the top private room on the high floor.
It is called a private room, but it is actually more like a small living room with elegant and exquisite decoration, sofas, dining tables, floor-standing TV cabinets, and chandeliers hanging from the top of the head that emit soft light, all of which show the strength of this restaurant.
"What did she bring me here?" Xia Yu looked at Erina Nakiri sitting opposite him, playing with an exquisite tea cup on the table in her hand.
After being stared at by him, Erina Nakiri felt uncomfortable all over. She was sitting calmly and elegantly, but then within a few minutes she changed several sitting positions, and finally she shouted in shame:
"What have you been watching me for?!"
"Your gaze makes me sick!"
Xia Yu smiled and glanced at the wall clock in the small living room. It was five o'clock in the afternoon. Danfei Building was very close to the old shopping street, so he was not in a hurry to leave, "I'll go to the bathroom."
After saying that, he left the table.
Nakirina frowned at his back, and suddenly grimaced her face and stuck out her tongue under the strange gaze of Nido Hisako.
Chapter completed!
