Alice brought her dishes to the table in front of the judges. The whole place was silent, with only a few people speaking, "Hey. Then... what is that?"
"Alice! She surpassed everyone's imagination so easily!" Mito Yumei was so shocked by Alice's dishes that she didn't know how to evaluate it.
The judges were stunned for a while when they looked at the dishes in front of them.
"There's a mist floating in the transparent dome!! What is this? A bento covered in mist?!" Rei Kawashima described the dish in surprise.
"Come on. Please enjoy your lunch." Alice was very satisfied with everyone's confused expressions, and she was all smiles.
In the preparation room, "Huh? Dry ice? Or liquid nitrogen?" Shi Ke stuck his butt out and looked at the TV and thought.
"Ah...you brought out some very strange things again." Xingping looked at Alice with a silly smile.
"How rude! You actually said that other people's dishes are very strange!!" Alice was so angry that she could not change her face.
"It's a wonderful visual effect! It has successfully aroused people's interest. This is a dish that is very suitable to appear at a food festival." The uncle who had previously commented on Alice's great achievements smiled and opened the dome glass cover.
Wow!! The mist inside the cover flowed out, spreading out like mercury pouring over the ground, and each small and exquisite sushi was exposed.
"Oh oh oh! The fog has dispersed! What appears from inside is~~~" Kawashima Rei did not miss any moment that could arouse the audience's curiosity.
"Oh! It's so beautiful! It's like a carefully designed jewelry box!" the glasses man praised.
"Temari sushi?" Kirisenzaemon smiled.
"Yes. This is a Temari sushi bento filled with the essence of my skills." Alice clapped her hands gently and nodded.
Kirisenzaemon touched the exposed lunch box and said, "It seems that the true form of the mist is the liquid nitrogen injected into the container."
"Oh! That's it! Then she creates this mist, and at the same time, the cold air also has the effect of keeping the sushi fresh!" said a little old judge on the left side of Kirisenzaemon.
"It turns out it's not just about scaring people." Yukihira thought.
In the audience, Marui pushed up his glasses and said, "Temari sushi can be made by ordinary families. It is a very popular dish."
"However, her dish is not ordinary at all. Molecular mousse is placed on the sushi. What secret is hidden in it?" Jun Imusaki said.
"If you can, please let the judges taste these sushis in order from the upper left corner." Alice's words drew the judges' attention to the sushi that was neatly placed in the lunch boxes in front of them.
"Oh? The first is the seafood sushi with abalone and sea urchin." The man with glasses picked up the first sushi, looked at it, put it in his mouth, and tasted it carefully.
Several other judges did not lag behind and started eating together.
"Hmm~~" Kirisenzaemon swallowed the sushi and nodded.
"I understand! This molecular mousse is made from foamed kelp stock! The delicate deliciousness will quickly penetrate into the tip of the tongue!! The ingredients are made into marinated kelp! This is a cooking method that is very suitable for bento." Glasses.
After the uncle finished speaking, he picked up the second piece of sushi and said, "Next is the bonito sushi... Hmm!!"
The little old judge on Kirisenzaemon's left side licked the remaining rice on his fingers, "This is a delicious mixture of several umami ingredients. The umami and umami complement each other."
The effect. The bonito aged at low temperature develops a more profound taste."
"In other words, this dish is a bento that is gradually completed in the guest's mouth as the guest tastes it in order." Alice emphasized with a smile.
"!!" The judges were shocked by Alice's explanation, and then looked down at the sushi in front of them, which was divided into three rows of four.
"The first row is seafood sushi. The next row is sushi with various vegetables as the theme. It is also called cake sushi!" The man with glasses picked up the second row of sushi wrapped in pumpkin instead of seaweed.
Regarding sushi, I looked at the other ones in the same row and said, "These sushis do not use seaweed at all, but are wrapped with thinly sliced vegetables. Very creative!!"
"Oh oh oh! You don't have to think about it. This third row is the main course. It is low-temperature matured filet mignon sushi!!" The little old man finished eating some vegetable sushi in the second row and went straight to the third row.
"Hmm!?! Such a solid and delicious taste! It's like a wave rushing in your mouth!!" The old man was so beautiful that he was so beautiful.
"Huh? Wait, I can understand that inosinic acid belongs to meat. After all, it is clear at a glance. But where does this glutamic acid come from?" The man with glasses was puzzled.
In the preparation room, Shi Ke squatted in front of the TV and scratched his head, "Didn't Alice squeeze tomato juice just now? Let's get rid of the color and fiber of the tomato juice."
"It's a tomato," said Alice.
"Yeah. You guessed it right. Hahahaha!" Shi Ke had a great time playing alone, (w)y.
Staff a at the door of the preparation room asked, "What are the Shike players inside doing? Are they smiling so happily alone?"
Staff B, "I don't know. It's normal for geniuses like them to have some quirks. Just get used to it, get used to it. Last year I even met a guy wearing an apron naked in the preparation room. (_)"
"Who is it? Boss."
"..., don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
"oh."
"What an outstanding technique. What's the last dish?" After hearing Alice's explanation of how to handle tomatoes, the glasses man was astonished. After finishing the first three sushis in the fourth row, he was overwhelmed by the fourth and the three in front.
I was confused by the completely different sushi, "There is sea bream sushi on the spoon and there is a cherry blossom-colored sphere?!"
Kirisenzaemon didn't say much, just picked up the spoon and took a sip.
When the glasses man saw this, he immediately picked up the spoon and took a sip, looking very excited.
"It's done on the tip of the tongue...taiyang chazuke! The sphere is...condensed dashi!"
"Wha...what? Even the finishing touch of Ochazuke?! How can you do so much with just a lunch box?!" Most of the students felt a sense of powerlessness coming from their hearts.
"The proud daughter of molecular gastronomy! She uses techniques that are not inferior to this title to constantly arouse the appetite and interest of the guests. Such a sense of satisfaction... is like a gorgeous feast of Japanese dishes!" Kirisenzuo
Weimen gave it a very high rating.
The man with glasses looked at Kirisenzaemon in surprise, "Oh! Come on, come on! It's coming!! Please hold your breath! Everyone!"
Wow!! Kirisenzaemon's kimono suddenly exploded.
“The wisdom of food is pouring out from the little lunch box…!!”
"It's cracked!!! The commander-in-chief's clothes are cracked!!" Rei Kawashima said.
"This is the true strength of Alice Chi! Are you lying? This kind of chef is actually in the same grade as us?! Do we have to compete with such a genius? Until we graduate?! It's impossible even if we spend a lifetime of hard work
I can keep up with her!!" Many students in the audience were frightened.
"The students here should be the elites in the chef world, but they are afraid... A genius that is too powerful will also bring shadows when it shines. This is really unfortunate for them!" The glasses man lamented.
"This is Totsuki Academy, there is no need for weak soldiers. Besides, look over there." Kirisenzaemon pointed at Yukihira who was putting down the chopsticks for frying, "At least there is one chef who is not afraid!!!"
