Chapter 770 The eyes of the masses are sharp

"My God, this smells so weird, but it's so good!"

The first moment you enter it gives you an indescribable strange feeling. This is definitely the first time you have tasted such a comprehensive and complex taste.

The sweet and sour taste made everyone fall in love with it immediately, and they couldn't help but take a second bite immediately.

and many more!

What's happening here?
I was just about to take my second bite and feel the strange taste again, but suddenly I realized that a nightmare was coming.
Oh my god, this is killing me!
Joey began to roar secretly in his heart: "Why is there pepper in this smell?
Why is the flavor of this chili so late in arriving? It’s sour and sweet as promised, so why don’t we talk about martial ethics? "

One of the condiments that Joey was most afraid of was chili pepper. The first bite was good, and the sweet and sour taste of the cold noodles was very refreshing, so he couldn't wait to take the second bite.

This allowed him to encounter an unprecedented extreme experience, that is, the inside of his mouth instantly felt like a flame bursting out, and it was about to burn.

Spicy spicy~!

But this was just the beginning, there was another, more wonderful smell coming slowly and quietly.

This kind of taste is really long overdue, and it gives people a sudden and critical hit!

The numbness of pepper
After his first reaction was the smell of chili pepper, Joey wanted to spit it out, but he was a little reluctant to let it go. The other flavors were so delicious.
So I worked hard to chew the mouthful twice quickly and swallowed it all, preparing to drink water to suppress the spicy taste.

Just after swallowing, Joey suddenly felt that his sharp tongue suddenly failed, and he gradually felt numb.

“Oh my God, what did I eat?
Could it be a poisonous mushroom? Am I poisoned? "

The startled Joey quickly drank a glass of water to calm down, then looked around to see if the person next to him was okay.

Then I saw everyone pouring water, and some people even drank more than one cup.

However, the spicy taste and the tongue-dying feeling still cannot be dissipated, and the two irritating flavors have a superimposed effect, making people want to roar wildly off guard.

The effect of the water seemed to be poor. After having no choice, everyone could only stick out their tongues, and then fan them wildly with their hands, using a little wind to dissipate the irritation on the tongues.

"What the hell is this?"

"God, I can't stand it anymore, please give me a glass of juice!"

"It's so spicy, so spicy, why is it so spicy?"

"Oh my gosh, this is the weirdest taste I've ever tasted. It's such a profound impression on me. What on earth is this?"

"I can't feel my tongue anymore. Oh my god, I'm not going to lose it, am I?"

The exaggerated movements of the Michelin reviewers naturally attracted everyone's attention, and the guests in the hall felt very strange.

Why did the reviewers at Black Pearl have no reaction at all after tasting it? They seemed very calm and were discussing something as if nothing had happened.

Are the things given by both parties different?
impossible?

The guests in the lobby who ordered the top-notch set menu also found it strange, and looked at the Michelin inspectors as if they were being stoked.

But after eating this beautiful cold noodle, I didn’t find it very spicy?

"Do you think it's spicy?"

A beautiful woman from Yangcheng asked her best friend next to her. She also came from Yangcheng. She usually doesn't eat spicy food and is a little afraid of spicy food.

"Don't you think so? It's just a little bit spicy. I think it's pretty good. The spiciness is just right. People like me who are afraid of chili peppers like it."

The girlfriend immediately denied it, and felt that the spicy taste could also help increase appetite.

"I don't think it's spicy at all, and I can feel a little numbing taste from Sichuan peppercorns after eating it. It feels like popping candy dancing on the tip of my tongue after eating. It's very comfortable!"

The beauty then summarized her feelings after eating the cold noodles. It seemed that everything was normal and there was nothing exaggerated about it, right?

"Yes, yes, you described it very well, it's like the feeling of dancing on the tip of the tongue, the description is so apt!

Moreover, the taste of this sauce is very special. It seems to have seven flavors: salty, sweet, spicy, numb, sour, fragrant, and fresh, and they blend with each other and are intertwined without affecting each other. It is simply amazing! "

My best friend seems to be very sensitive to taste, and she immediately tasted the mystery.

"Yes, yes, these are the flavors. I remembered them all as soon as you mentioned them. The impression is so profound. They are so delicious. No wonder they are called strange smells?"

The beauty also likes this taste very much, but now it seems that how this strange smell is prepared is simply amazing. I really want to read the introduction to clarify my doubts.

Just when the waiters thoughtfully brought juice, milk and other spicy food to the Michelin people, Lao Wang laughed unkindly inside the Yipin store.

"Brother Chu, you didn't add a little more chili and pepper to their sauce, did you?"

Lao Wang saw that the Michelin reviewer was so angry that he was amused, but he also suspected that Chu Yunfeng did it on purpose.

"No, all the sauces are scooped out of this big bowl, without any manipulations, you think too much!"

Chu Yunfeng was busy making the next hot dish and responded to Lao Wang without raising his head.

"Then how come they are so hot? They look like they are almost out of breath?
And he keeps fanning his tongue, so why don’t he bring a small fan? "

I was just joking, knowing that Chu Yunfeng would not do such a little trick, but this scene looked very funny, and I couldn't help but want to liven up the atmosphere.

But I didn't expect Chu Yunfeng to have no expression at all, and he answered himself in a serious manner, which made Lao Wang feel a little bored.

“It must be their first time trying the taste of red oil, so they are not used to it, and with the addition of Sichuan peppercorns, they feel it is very spicy.

In order to avoid making this red oil too spicy, I only use bell peppers to get its aroma, and the spiciness is really only a little bit.

And when I prepared the sauce, I didn't put the chili peppers at the bottom. I just used a little chili oil from the top to add a flavor.

The same goes for Sichuan peppercorns. Knowing that they might be afraid of numbness, I just lightly refined it with Sichuan peppercorns, and the numbness was very, very light.

But even so, they still can't stand it. How can you make me feel so embarrassed? "

The last four words of Chu Yunfeng gave Lao Wang a critical blow. It seemed that he was not to blame for this matter. Even Lao Wang himself did not notice the taste of chili and Sichuan peppercorns in the sauce after he finished eating.

"Okay, just pretend I didn't ask anything and said nothing!"

Feeling very bored, Lao Wang returned to his seat and continued to appreciate the wonderful expressions of those people on the big screen.
With the help of milk and juice, gradually, the numb feeling that was about to lift my soul into the sky slowly disappeared, and it felt like I had saved my life.

An Zifang had already finished tasting the cold noodles and lobster, and had already begun to comment.

“This strange flavor is an original flavor of Sichuan cuisine and one of the 24 common flavors. It skillfully uses sugar, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, salt, red oil, Sichuan peppercorns, sesame paste, and MSG to blend it.

The five flavors of sour, sweet, spicy and salty are skillfully blended together, and yet they are both similar and different from any of them. It is very similar to the various flavors of life.

Of course, no MSG is used here at Yipin. Condensed stock should be added to enhance the freshness and make the taste more delicious.

I personally think the spiciness and numbness are very suitable, even people who can't eat chili and pepper will like it.

In addition, the shrimp meat is very well processed, and it has a sweet and sour taste, which is very delicious. The most impressive thing about this dish is the colorful vegetable cold noodles, which are very creative and nutritious! "

An Zifang's evaluation is very fair and does not add any exaggeration, because he himself is not a person who likes spicy food.

But after tasting this strange sauce, I found that I seemed to fall in love with the taste of chili and Sichuan peppercorns, which I have to say is a bit magical.

And his words also made the guests who tasted this dish agree. Indeed, as he said, the spiciness and numbness are really very slight and can be ignored.

Because you are more or less exposed to chili peppers in daily life, you will have some immunity to chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns in terms of taste.

And for people who don’t usually come into contact with, or have never come into contact with, chili peppers or even Sichuan peppercorns, the experience of “trying them out” for the first time is really impressive.

When the translator mentioned that the lobster meat was very good and tasted sweet and sour, the Michelin reviewers' tongues had already recovered.

The review will start soon, so I have to take the time to taste it. After trying the lobster meat, they all expressed their great approval because the texture of the meat is indeed excellent.

But if it weren't for the "injury" of the colorful noodles, this dish would definitely be perfect.

Adolf and Leon looked at each other, feeling worried at the same time, because this dish made them feel indescribably weird.

The so-called strange taste does make people love and hate it. What I love is its complex taste. It is indeed very unique. After tasting it once, I fell in love.

What I hate is the spicy and numbing taste in it. I don’t understand why these two flavors are added?
Isn’t it okay if we don’t add it?
It would definitely taste better without it, right?

Ever since, Milu continued to act as a pioneer and began to "criticize" the taste of this dish.

"This strange-flavored sauce left a deep impression on me. I like its taste very much, but I particularly hate the taste of chili and Sichuan peppercorns.

Really, it can be described as disgusting!
Especially the numbing smell of Sichuan peppercorns, it actually hides itself, and only reveals its power in the end, making my tongue lose its function!

Apart from these two flavors, the rest tastes great. Why can't these two extra flavors be removed?

Wouldn't it be better to just keep the sweet, sour and salty flavors?
Did the chef add these two seasonings just because it is a local specialty?I think this is undesirable and is the key factor that ruins this otherwise perfect dish. "

Milu's comments were supported by his teammates. Joey also stood up and expressed his feelings, and also suggested that the chili and Sichuan peppercorns in this strange smell should be eliminated.

Moreover, they kept talking about it again and continued to emphasize their so-called standards, which made people very angry. Gradually, everyone began to realize the core issue.
At this time, all the scores came out. All commentators on the Black Pearl side gave it full marks, while on the Michelin side
"6 points!
8 points!
5 points!
7 points!
"

There is no perfect score, the highest score is only 8 points, and the lowest score is 5 points, which is obviously a failing score!

The person who scored 5 points was Milu. It seemed that he really didn't like the taste of chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns, so he actually gave it the lowest score so far.

Adolf and Leon did not comment, because as soon as the score came out, they both knew that this matter was serious and it seemed that it was starting to show signs of getting out of control.

Both dishes had low scores, and this dish in particular received a failing score, which seemed to detonate the guests at the scene.

"What kind of score is this? Are these people professional?"

"I think it's better for me to be a judge? Will I be able to taste delicious food?"

"I had tolerated that dish before, but now I'm still doing this? Is this a deliberate attempt to cause trouble?"

The emotions of the guests on the scene naturally exploded. These are the guests of the top set meal. They have tasted a lot of high-end dishes, so they have a deeper impression on this dish.

It is definitely more distinctive than the signature dishes of most high-end restaurants, and you will never taste this strange taste elsewhere.

This is a unique preparation method of Sichuan cuisine and is not available in other dishes.

Such a classic taste is very spicy and numbing, but Mr. Chu has improved it, so it can be said to be suitable for everyone's taste.

In particular, some people who are afraid of spicy food and numbness can accept it and fall in love with it immediately. Doesn’t this explain the problem?

The people at Michelin had such a big reaction, especially emphasizing that this dish did not meet their standards and that the spicy taste should be removed.

Is it still called strange taste after canceling the spicy taste?

Naturally, Black Pearl would not let go of such an excellent opportunity. The eyes of the masses were sharp, and subduing the enemy without fighting was the highest state.

Mobilizing everyone's enthusiasm and letting everyone find the truth in the problem is the most brilliant method, and Liang Haotian is very familiar with this kind of operation!

Liang Haotian stood up, took the microphone in his hand, walked to the guests who had tasted the dish, and asked them one by one.

He didn't have many questions. He only had one sentence, but it contained three questions.

"where are you from?

Do you think this dish is spicy?

Numb? "

The three questions are simple, but they directly point to the core of the current debate, and they can also let everyone see the truth of all this clearly!

The people of Black Pearl have no say, and the guests who come from all over the world are the best proof.

As each customer revealed the city they were in, they all answered whether it was not spicy or numb, and finally expressed that they liked the taste very much.

In particular, there were several guests from Yangcheng, which has always been famous for eating light dishes. They said that they were completely able to accept the taste.

It is said that the power of the masses is infinite, and the combined power turned into full energy to attack Michelin, making Adolf and Leon feel like a thunderbolt descended into the world.
