I got poor quality ingredients. Although the young man had many ways to deal with the ingredients in his mind, he was not a god. It would take time to improve the poor quality ingredients. It would take at least three days. There was enough time for the ingredients to deteriorate.
Now they only have half a day, which is not enough to make the ingredients delicious. So he remembered the course of Erina Nakiri. She said that there are many ingredient warehouses in Hokkaido, some of which use special maintenance methods, maybe they will
There is salmon.
Salt brine freezing method.
This is a special refrigeration method. Generally speaking, refrigeration means direct freezing to freeze the ingredients. The brine freezing method uses a 'salt brine' that does not freeze even below zero to preserve the ingredients for future use.
Preserve precious ingredients.
So if you can find refrigerated salmon, there's still a chance.
The salmon used for the exam were the last batch of the fishing season, so are there any refrigerated salmon? The teenager and his teammates immediately contacted the local cold storage to purchase refrigerated salmon.
They really found it, Nakiri Alice waved her hand and said she didn't need any money, she could buy as much refrigerated salmon as she wanted.
But it took a lot of time, and it was only half an hour when I returned to the examination room.
"Haha, I thought you gave up the exam." The old woman said sarcastically when she saw that the opposition was back.
"I disappoint you." Alice said triumphantly: "Our exam has only started now."
"Then you should hurry up, everyone else has already passed the exam." As she said this, she watched the five people take out a small salmon. Although it was small, the meat quality looked very unusual, and she couldn't help but ask: "How is it possible?
Where did this fish come from?”
"Examiner, you don't need to worry about this. Just wait and taste it."
The examiner gritted her teeth. She originally used ingredients to target the opponents, but she didn't expect that they could find other fish. At this time, she finally thought of a place to get salmon: "Brine freezing method? It can be said to be a storage method of freezing time. It can only be stored in small quantities."
I didn’t expect that you would actually find this precious material. It took half a day, how could you little guys succeed in negotiating in such a short time?”
Of course it's the ability to make money, otherwise what else could it be? Alice is also the eldest lady's cousin and has money.
No matter, I only have half an hour now, so I don’t believe they can still make flowers.
Although time is tight, it is not a big problem for five people to work together. What they want to do is grilled fish, grilled fish simply seasoned with wine and sauce.
Half an hour is enough.
"Please taste it." The young man placed a piece of plump and firm fish meat in front of the examiner.
Just looking at it makes my index finger twitch. I can’t imagine that this piece of fish has been preserved for half a year. The unique beauty and elegance of salmon are also vividly reflected. The fish is brushed with sauce, and after grilling, it emits a tangy aroma.
It’s too tempting. I want to eat, want to eat, want to eat——
"Eat." The examiner finally couldn't help but take a bite, and immediately felt the crispy texture coming over him. This was just the outer layer, but the inside was soft and tender. The complex taste was indescribable, and the tongue was almost numb.
It is really delicious, and the fragrance of grapefruit stimulates the energy of the salmon, making it burst and explode.
How could this happen? I thought that without food, the opposition would definitely lose, but in the end they fought back. These teenagers really cannot be underestimated. What should I do? Should they be tried fairly, or should they be sentenced to drop out of school?
what to do?
The young man said confidently: "No matter what the situation, we will make impeccable dishes. This is my job in the restaurant and my daily life. I will never give up halfway."
Looking at the confident young man, at this time the examiner could just say "unpalatable" to make him drop out of school, but in the end she still chose to let them pass the exam and said: "The five of you are qualified. But don't be too proud, you should probably finish here
, after all, if you leave at this time, you can escape unscathed. As long as you continue to take the exam, you will eventually meet Dulan from the Demon Chef Army. You should know that everyone who competes with him will fall on the ring. After meeting him, you
I will regret why I didn’t quit the exam earlier.”
When everyone heard that Du Lan was also the examiner, their faces became heavy, knowing that the exams in the future would become increasingly difficult.
Next, they were going to the next location for the next round of exams. They took a train and rested on the train at night. They arrived at a manor the next day.
It was snowing heavily, and the exam topic this time was ‘noodles’, but the opponents were still targeted on the ingredients. They were only given noodles, not side dishes. If they wanted side dishes, they had to go out and find them by themselves.
But there is snow all over the sky outside, so there is no way to find it. If you walk into the snowfield rashly, you will freeze to death inside.
The last exam was in the city. They could use modern technology to quickly find cold storage and find the ingredients they needed. But this time it was in the mountains. Although the outside was a treasure house of nature, it also came with the test of cruel nature.
The snow can be buried up to your knees, and the sky is covered with heavy goose-feather snow. Unfamiliar outsiders who enter it rashly will definitely die.
The teenagers knew at a glance that they couldn't take risks and could only use the ingredients available in the villa, but there was nothing suitable to go with ramen.
At this time, we still have to make use of the teaching content of Erina Nakiri. When it comes to Hokkaido, we have to talk about potatoes. This is the main local ingredient. Because the local area is really too cold, potatoes that are easy to store are the best choice.
There are also a lot of potatoes in the villa, so they have to give full play to their local characteristics and use potatoes to enhance the taste of the noodles, otherwise they will lose.
Yes, this is the only way to do it, and we must give full play to local advantages.
Use potatoes as a side dish and serve potatoes with noodles.
Anyway, island countries like staple food to be paired with staple food, rice with dumplings, rice with noodles, noodles with dumplings... There is no problem with noodles and potatoes. The concept of side dishes can also be a staple food to some extent in island countries.
Side dishes are equal to staple food, and staple food is equal to side dishes. There is nothing wrong with that.
Mashed potatoes are a staple food in many countries and a side dish in island countries. Mochi is a staple food for breakfast in many countries and is also a side dish in island countries.
As long as the range of side dishes is broad enough, using potatoes to make mochi and putting it in a noodle bowl is a side dish, and the examiner won't be able to fault it.
Flexible use of potatoes is also the most important part of Nakiri Erina's training. After all, there is nothing delicious in Hokkaido once it gets cold.
In the northern region, a lot of cabbage and potatoes are prepared in winter, because these things are easy to store and can be eaten in winter. Because in winter, heavy snow blocks roads, and there is basically no way to get supplies from outside, so you can only store them yourself.
A lockdown period of three to six months is usually required, so the more stored the better.
Of course, there are also some places where different vegetables are pickled, such as pickled cucumbers, which can be eaten in the winter. Cucumbers cannot be preserved for a long time and can only be pickled.
It is not easy to survive a long winter.
The examiners were helpless when they looked at the potato noodles they brought out. The taste was indeed right, and the delicious taste of potatoes was concentrated in it. These guys should not be underestimated. Young people are like an invincible army, an army that cannot be stopped.
's army.
And there was a leader in front of them, someone who guided them in the direction. Yes, it was Erina Nakiri, and these resisters were her army.
In one week, she poured all the knowledge about Hokkaido into their brains, and these chefs not only remembered the knowledge, but also learned to use it flexibly.
A knowledgeable leader and a group of young chefs who exert their subjective initiative are like the French knights led by Joan of Arc who want to take back Yueyue from the control of the central gastronomic institution, just like taking back France from the hands of the sun never sets.
A powerful army is taking shape, and the examiner realizes that if it is not stopped, the central gastronomic institution will suffer an unprecedented impact.
