"Is it a balanced fusion of ancient French cuisine with modern concepts or flavors from other systems?"
The nerdy-looking young man next to Yukihira Soma, his eyes under his glasses were full of shock.
He didn't expect that Zhao Youqian could recreate and construct recipes from this aspect.
This shocked him infinitely, because he happened to be a scholar, but he did not have a high talent for actual on-the-spot cooking innovation and production.
If he follows Totsuki's training method, he may become a culinary researcher, an excellent sous chef, a culinary school instructor, or the like.
But Zhao Youqian's approach allowed him to see another way, a way to continue in the majestic world of cooking!
Unknowingly, he clenched the notebook full of writing in his hand. Marui Zenji had decided that he must study next to Zhao Youqian.
"As long as I can learn even one-tenth, no! One-hundredth of Teacher Zhao's ability, my future will be..."
There are not many freshmen with a vision as sensitive as Zenji Marui's, but most people have also seen Zhao Youqian's level, and what he teaches is not an incomprehensible method, but a concept.
This concept can allow many students who have reached a dead end or a bottleneck to see hope of breakthrough.
For a moment, everyone couldn't help but start applauding and cheering for Zhao Youqian.
"Come on! Teacher Zhao, you must pass the assessment!"
The extroverted freshman suddenly roared, causing a wave of echoes.
This unusual behavior also made the teachers in Yuanyue show a strange look.
They are all people who have been teaching for many years. How could they not know that this new class of students was almost conquered by Zhao Youqian's performance.
Being able to conquer these high-minded Yuanyue students with just one test also shows that Zhao Youqian's level is indeed higher than many people imagined.
"Only such a genius can conquer so many geniuses!"
Inside Yuanyue, Roland Chapel, the director and lecturer of the French cuisine department known as the 'chef who never smiles', sighed lightly, but was already shocked by Zhao Youqian's performance.
Although this person has not entered the realm of super chefs, he already has his own set of skills in cooking. He is only a thin film away from the super chefs, but he understands that his cooking skills are far from Zhao Youqian. There is still a little difference.
'A genius who stands in front of the special threshold under the age of eighteen?'
This unsmiling French lecturer couldn't help but chuckle.
It also aroused a burst of surprise among the colleagues present!
...
The commotion on the audience stage did not affect the progress of the judges. Only Kirisenzaemon was quite satisfied.
'To conquer them so quickly, it seems that Brother Yougan is more capable than I thought!'
After tasting the Orange Lake Crab, the taste in the mouth was like being opened by an indestructible metal blade, which also made several judges eager to try other dishes.
Except for Kirisenzaemon and Kusou Rokuen, the remaining three people couldn't help but put their chopsticks towards the dish of Suzaku Flame.
You must know that they have admired the name of this dish for a long time.
Kyoto fighting cock is one of the legendary ingredients that is relatively easy to obtain, especially in Sengen Shrine, where it is specially bred, because this kind of fighting cock is an excellent exotic meal.
After the appearance of Zhao Youqian's Suzaku Flame, Asama Shrine tried to imitate it from the beginning, but it was impossible to produce a taste similar to what Kirisenzaemon and others described, and they were even two completely different dishes.
The high priest who was particularly curious about this was naturally the first to attack Suzaku after tasting the appetizer soup.
De Fenglei and Fengjian Xuezhi were quite curious about this dish. After all, they had never tasted the spicy chicken from Yaozhou. However, Zhao Youqian's method of making it could still create such a clear vision of a mythical beast. Not much really.
Three kinds of fiery red chili peppers almost cover the entire plate, and the strong and restrained chili aroma can only be felt when you are close to this dish.
The dark brown diced chicken in the red hot chili actually formed the image of a red bird spreading its wings, with a faint radiance flowing, and with the last sprinkles of sesame seeds and chives, it looked like a bird spreading its wings on the tree and about to fly, with its whole body covered with The flaming Suzaku!
"interesting!"
A flash of light flashed in his eyes. He saw the difference between the dish and the previous one, so he immediately started to take advantage of it. Instead of using chopsticks, he scooped it up with a spoon. It had both chili pepper and diced chicken. .
"Everyone, I'm not welcome!"
Ignoring the curious expressions of De Fenglei and the others, Jiucou Luyuan was really too curious about how this dish would change, and was so curious that he disregarded etiquette.
Only Kirisenzaemon can understand the reason why Kusou Rokuen is so eager. It is not only because he wants Zhao Youqian to pass this assessment and add to his political achievements, but more importantly, he is not far away from that realm, but he still can't. One step away, and it's a world of difference.
If he can break through the Lin level, then his long-cherished position as head of the Higashi Sakuraigo branch will no longer be a suspense.
Now he has the opportunity to taste a dish that contains the flavor of the Lin-level realm, but is far less complex than the real Lin-level dishes. The benefits for him to break through to the Lin-level are simply indescribable.
At least the fusion method contained in the first dish, as well as the kitchen spirit that is everywhere but hidden under the taste, also gave Jiucou Luyuan a lot of guidance.
"New stuff, new flavor!"
"Incredible, incredible!"
He did not immediately fall into the fantasy of delicious food. When Jiuzou Luyuan chewed for the first time, he had already exclaimed, and then his eyes widened. He quickly lost focus and was completely immersed in the construction of delicious food. in the world.
‘Huhuhu’
The wind, the endless strong wind, comes with a rolling heat wave.
Jiuzou Luyuan seemed to suddenly appear in a crater filled with magma.
The cry of the phoenix sounded, and he turned around suddenly, only to see a Suzaku emerging from the magma and heading straight to the top of the clouds.
A strong irritating smell filled his mouth and nose, and then the ground began to tremble, and gravel rolled down, before he could resist the terrifying heat wave.
Jiucou Luyuan fell into a spring that was full of heat but had a touch of gentleness.
The hot spring water washed his body and mind, and the unique gentle fragrance made him linger. Above the hot spring, a soaring Suzaku kept lingering, spitting out fierce flames.
Several judges at the scene heard the ultimate crispy sound from the beginning of chewing.
