With the order from Lord Nakiri Senzaemon, the competition officially began.
The three of them returned to their cooking tables and started processing.
"None of the three contestants processed saury, but chose to process other ingredients, which is exactly what I expected..." Dojima Gin touched his chin and said.
"Because extra steps are likely to affect the freshness of the fish, if you want to win the competition, it is essential to preserve the perfect freshness as much as possible." Nakiri Senzaemon said.
"They are all pretty good. But the processing method they chose is a bit ordinary. They are making the dishes in front of us, so the moment they start cooking is the time for them to express the taste of their dishes. How to choose the processing method to use it?
Mobilizing our emotions means whether we can be full of expectations before tasting. If we can arouse the emotions of the tasters, then we can have a better chance of winning if we make a good enough dish. Of course, this is a double-edged sword.
It's not a student-level move, and it's not wrong to be steady. Haha..." Shi Ke's mother realized something was wrong after saying this and smiled.
"Hmm...that makes sense. As for competitions, you should really capture all the factors that can increase the interest of tasters." Alice's mother said, tapping her chin.
"This statement is indeed correct. However, this is indeed a technique that only high-level chefs can use with confidence." Teacher Chapel said with arms crossed.
In the audience, the students didn't understand. "To put it simply, it's just showing cooking skills in front of guests? It's not difficult, right? Yes! I can do it too. What's so great about this? It's true."
"Tch! A bunch of idiots who don't understand anything~~" Kurokiba Ryo said with his arms crossed, without even looking at those people.
"What did you say?! What do you know?" Someone was dissatisfied.
"Uh?! Are you not convinced?!" Kurokiba Ryo glared at him with a fierce look in his eyes, (◣д◢), directly scaring away the dissatisfied students.
Xiao Hui became anxious again, Σ(っ°Д°;)っ, "Wow! Kurokiba-kun!"
"No...I don't accept it~~If you have the ability, you can explain it clearly!" A small boy stood up tremblingly, and there were some who were not scared enough to dare to speak.
"..." Kurokiba Ryo looked at this little man like a fool, and was stunned for a while, (?_?), "Okay. Let me explain to you. It also depends on the timing of the cooking show to increase the taster's expectations.
.This kind of final is full of expectations. What do you think will happen if the tasters' expectations are raised again through various cooking performances on this basis?"
"Then no matter what, it can only make the tasters look forward to the dishes they eat. Isn't there any harm?"
“What if your dish simply doesn’t live up to the taster’s expectations?”
"..."
Kurokiba Ryo looked at the ring, grinned, and directed an uncle who played vectors with his expression, "Increasing the tasters' expectations on this occasion is tantamount to increasing the difficulty of the competition and digging one's own grave. This is the only way
It’s something only people with desperate skills or confidence can do. If it were me, I would definitely choose this method! I’ve always fought like this! Hahahaha..."
"..." Yuki on the side turned to look at Kurokiba Ryo, who was wearing a headscarf and laughing wildly, (?_?), "Eight~~strong~~"
"Um..." Kurokiba Ryo choked up.
"Shi Kejun said that if you say this word to you when you can't control your emotions, you will calm down immediately. And the longer the sound is, the better the effect will be. Alice is not here, so I have to try it." Yuji did.
He made an apologetic gesture, ╮(?＞?＜)╭.
"Cough cough cough cough... Shike!! Cough cough cough~~ I'm not done with you! Cough cough cough!" Kurokiba Ryo covered his chest and almost lost his breath.
"Oh? Classmate Shi Ke was the first to touch the saury. What did he want to do?" The host's voice attracted the audience's attention to Shi Ke's cooking table.
I saw Shi Ke being the first to use the kitchen knife.
Then..., I slowly cut up the saury.
Cut off the head of the fish, remove the internal organs, make a cut from the dorsal fin, and remove the bones leaving only the intact fish meat.
The movements are so slow and slow.
"..., so slow~~" Rei Kawashima complained.
"What are you doing? Have you changed someone? This speed is completely different from Shike-kun who usually cooks?! Shike-kun, where is your knife skill?" Aoki Daigo complained.
"There is no sense of movement~~This is slower than me!" Shoji Sato held his head and went crazy.
Ten minutes later, Shi Ke picked up a pile of tender fish meat, sprinkled it with the spices prepared in advance and marinated it for a few minutes.
"Huh... the next work will be a bit scary. Yeah hehe hehe..." Shi Ke rested for a while, looked at his cell phone, smiled sinisterly, and turned over the tool box.
"..., this expression! What is this guy going to do?" Ye Shanliang felt a chill in his heart when he saw Shi Ke's expression, (|||﹀＿﹀).
"Click!!" Shi Ke took out something from the box that confused the whole audience. It looked like a spiral metal circle with a base and the size of a cup that heats up quickly, and stood on the cooking table.
"Hehehe... I seem to have seen this thing in a teapot~~ Does he want to boil water? Isn't there a pot next to it?" Yuji said in a daze.
"No. It seems to be different from the heating wire in the electric tea kettle..." Jun Imusaki said.
Then Shi Ke dug around the box twice more, pulled out a plug and a voltage conversion plug, and found a place to plug in the plug.
"This thing doesn't heat up very quickly." Shi Ke pressed a button on his tool box.
Suddenly, the spiral metal circle made a gentle buzzing sound.
"Hmm... it's not broken yet. Not bad." Shi Ke smiled and took out two super ordinary kitchen knives from the food box. The price tags were not even removed. The words "buy one, get one free" were very eye-catching.
"Oh... Shike-kun, what are you doing? There are so many high-end treasure knives that you don't need, so take these two sale knives?! Can you be more serious! It's the final!" Yuki grabbed Imusaki Jun and shook her.
.
"Don't shake me..." Jun Imusaki looked like he was about to die.
Shi Ke looked at this scene, smiled, and put two cheap knives into the buzzing circle on the cooking table. The buzzing suddenly became louder.
One second, two seconds, three seconds, four seconds.
Two evil kitchen knives with strangely fiery red color appeared out of nowhere.
Shi Ke held these two knives, and the orange-red light shone on his face, revealing a soul-stirring evil charm.
Feel the charm of flame!!
Shi Ke used two knives to chop up the fish meat. Every time the knife fell, it would bring out a burst of flames. Every time the two knives alternated, sparks would fly. The aroma of fish meat was already boiling in the venue.
"This is... electromagnetic induction heating? Isn't this an industrial technology for ironmaking?" Alice saw the mystery of the mysterious circle.
"Electromagnetic induction heating can heat steel to 800 to 1,000 degrees Celsius in just a few seconds. It is feasible to use this residual temperature to heat fish meat. Nowadays, the position of electromagnetic products in the food field is becoming increasingly solid." Dojima Ginsha
Start talking.
"I know this! I'm a master of molecular cuisine!!" Alice said angrily, "But his method is too similar to iron smelting, isn't it?"
"There are two reasons why he did this." Shi Ke's mother spoke.
"The first point should be to use the power of heat to preserve the freshness of the fish. Let the fish be grilled in advance." Nakiri Senzaemon said.
"The second point is the aftertaste. If you use a simple flame to heat the knife directly, there will be a situation where the knife will have a burnt smell of fuel, and the chopped fish may also be stained with this smell.
Electromagnetic heating is different. There is no open flame contact, which can minimize the possibility of fuel contaminating the flavor of the fish itself, making seasoning more free!"
"..., he chopped the fish into such fine pieces that the taste of the saury was completely ruined." Erina said.
"Yeah." Alice nodded.
"Wrong. The saury he chose is not a top-grade saury with an excellent taste. Some of it can even be said to be used only by canning factories. So it doesn't matter whether it is chopped or not. The shortcomings of the ingredients themselves are left to the chef.
To make up for it. The saury lacks texture, then I will chop it into minced meat and reshape the taste. The choice of Shike player makes me full of expectations for his dishes!!" Nakiri Senzaemon smiled.
"The Commander-in-Chief laughed! The serious Commander-in-Chief smiled! With just one simple operation, we could see the Commander-in-Chief's smile! Is this the emotion we just discussed? Dare you mobilize the judges in the finals?
The emotions of the members, Mr. Shi Ke is so strong!" The people in the audience understood clearly.
"This guy Shi Ke is so crazy!!" Zenji Marui pushed up his glasses tremblingly.
"This guy is indeed such a person!" Kurokiba Ryo was about to smile, but Yuki turned her head and became discouraged on the spot, "..., don't mention the top eight."
"..." Yuji glanced at it, smiled, and turned back, (?＞?＜)☆.
"Hey! Shi Ke, are you exaggerating? Isn't it hot?" Xing Ping waved his hand towards Shi Ke.
"It's not bad. I'm not afraid of burning. How can a chef be afraid of fire?" Shi Ke put the handle of the knife on the big wooden stake, and smoke came out.
"Um...you've already cooked it, right?" Xingping looked up at a cigarette, (?_?).
"No. It's very good." Shi Ke nailed the two knives to the wooden stakes and showed Xingping his unharmed hands.
However, now the audience's eyes are all on the two kitchen knives on the wooden stake that are so hot that the wooden stake is bursting with flames, and the collective hands feel a little sore.
"Iron Sand Palm? Or the legendary Fire Cloud Palm? There is a peerless kung fu master in our school! It must be true that all Chinese people are good at kung fu! I saw on the Internet those aunties and uncles who hang their necks in the park to practice kung fu.
It's all true!" The auditorium turned into a mess, and all three views were shattered.
Xingping is currently doubting whether he can really be slapped to death by Shi Ke, right?
