The eyes wearing glasses blinked twice, and Zenji Marui felt a little strange.

According to Dongying's habit, if he wants to rejuvenate, he usually makes dishes such as beef or eel, and both of them are rich in protein and collagen, which are indeed very effective in rejuvenating the human body.

Since Hojo Miyoko needs to go through hell training, it is not surprising that Zhao Youqian can make some dishes to restore her vitality.

But what I didn't expect was that it would be just these ingredients.

"To put it bluntly, the extreme training method is not the right way, otherwise you wouldn't have only a residential training course that meets the extreme training requirements..."

Zhao Youqian saw Marui Zenji's doubts. He also liked this student who was curious and could see his goals moving forward, so he actually helped Marui Zenji more than others and taught him. Also more attentive.

"Otherwise, wouldn't everyone be able to break through their own bottlenecks as long as they perform extreme training? That is unrealistic."

"The so-called extreme training only strengthens the obvious shortcomings of a certain part and squeezes out the potential that already exists but has not yet been explored."

"Every extreme training is a helpless consumption of the accumulated daily accumulation. You have to understand this."

Zenji Marui's eyes were slightly bright. These things are not explained in books. They must be passed down orally by people with experience or inheritance.

This is the difference between having a special chef or Lin chef at home and not having an elder to give advice. If some things are not clear, a solid foundation cannot be laid. If some things are already understood, young people will not be impatient, but will It is training to understand what will happen to you in the future and to be more dedicated.

"But, if this kind of training requires a lot of physical strength, wouldn't eel and beef be more suitable?"

Just ask if you don't understand, which is where Marui Zenji excels. However, in a place like Totsuki Academy, studying in this way reveals one's own weakness and ignorance, and is incompatible with this campus.

Fortunately, Zhao Youqian was not a traditional Yuanyue mentor, so he looked at him and showed a smile.

"If it's just two or three days of training, or if it involves whole-body exercise, beef and eel are indeed the most suitable to replenish physical strength. However, Hojo's training does not require exercising the whole body. She works harder on her arms, wrists and waist."

"Beef and eel supplements only restore physical strength, but have no significant effect on relieving fatigue and restoring damaged areas."

With a look of surprise, Zenji Marui looked at the crucian carp that had been handled by Zhao Yougan.

"So you choose collagen-rich crucian carp as your ingredients, as well as pig's trotters and fish. These are all dishes that can restore fatigue and even promote wound healing..."

"If I remember correctly...many of these should be used to heal the wounds of Yaozhou women after giving birth, and are the main ingredients of confinement meals, right?"

Confinement is a period of recuperation for mothers in Yaozhou from one month to forty-two days after giving birth. During this period, the mother is provided with meals to recuperate her body and restore her wounds, mainly to replenish her vitality, restore her wounds, and strengthen her body, especially Light, avoid greasy and spicy.

This is the so-called confinement meal.

A stricter concept is that even in the first week of confinement, you can't even take in too much salt, let alone soy sauce. Relying purely on the taste and nutrition of the ingredients to restore the vitality lost during production can be regarded as a kind of Yaozhou. tradition.

Zhao Youqian did not expect that Zenji Marui even knew about this relatively unpopular custom in Yaozhou, but he was quite impressed by him.

"Indeed, I used some postpartum meal recipes in it. You just happen to be training recently, so you can also see how I process these ingredients!"

"Traditional confinement meals are mainly light and non-greasy, but Hojo is not really in confinement. We can relax this a little bit, but we still have to focus on stimulating the efficacy of the ingredients themselves and reduce the later flavor mixing."

Zhao Yougan moved his hand, and the flesh and bones of the remaining crucian carp were separated. The knife passed through the crucian carp only four times, and the bones and flesh were completely separated. And Marui Zenji also noticed the difference in Zhao Yougan's move.

Generally speaking, when the fish is sliced, it is a whole piece of meat, but when Zhao Youqian started, he seemed to follow the line of the crucian carp's abdomen, and only sliced ​​off the abdominal meat, and the back meat was not cut off.

"Teacher Zhao, what are you..."

He pointed at the crucian carp meat on the back and couldn't help but speak.

"Why don't you want this part of the meat?"

Zhao You smiled dryly.

"The spines of crucian carp are small and numerous, and most of the fine spines are in the triangular piece of meat on the back, but we don't want to waste them!"

I saw Zhao Youqian changing his knife, removing the head and tail of the crucian carp from which the fish meat had been removed, and cutting the fish bones into several sections, and then put them aside.

"These will be fried later, so they won't be wasted. Besides, you have to eat, right?"

Then Zenji Marui nodded silently, and while helping Zhao Youqian, he asked why he had to deal with it this way.

Soak the soybeans, add the kidney beans, and cook them together with the diced and blanched pig trotters. This is how to make the famous Lao Ma's Hoof Flowers in Sichuan Province.

As for the sliced ​​crucian carp meat, you don’t even need to add any extra marinade, just a little shredded ginger and white pepper, paired with the boiled white porridge, you will have a bowl of fragrant and delicious crucian carp porridge.

The fish meat is also deboned and sliced, served with green and red peppers, and soy sauce, steamed over high heat, the bones and the head and tail of the crucian carp are boiled together in soup, and shredded white radish is added to make a steamed fish fillet and shredded radish fish that are served with rice. Bone broth.

Watching Zhao Youqian easily classify and cook several dishes, then overlap each other, and use different ingredients to overlap the flavors and activate the energy in the ingredients, Marui Zenji was simply watching a magic show.

"Instructor Zhao, have you reached the special level?"

Seeing that in just over an hour, Zhao Youqian had almost finished preparing all the dishes, leaving only the final cooking work, Marui Zenji finally couldn't help but the question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time.

How far is Zhao Youqian from the so-called special chef?

After all, in the eyes of many people, Zhao Youqian, who has passed the three-star examination, seems to have already reached the special level, and has even cooked several dishes that represent the special level.

Only Zhao Youqian himself knows that he is actually close to the special level, and there are still some difficult thresholds to cross.

Although he is now taking the special examination and has a chance to pass the corresponding questions, such special level is still far from being a real special chef recognized by Yaozhou.

This is why he is still learning other systems, and even keeps looking at the recipes they collected at Che's house.
