Chapter 141 Garrett’s little thoughts

After the ice-cold fresh sea bream was unanimously praised by the judges, the other three dishes of the three groups - tonkotsu ramen, potato and meat platter, and butter-fried lemon king acanthus were also presented to the judges. seats.

[The last team of the third group, 'Butter Team', brought us a dish called Butter Pan-fried Lemon King Echinacea!Maybe some viewers don't know what kind of fish King Echinoderma is.

Here, I think it is necessary for me to popularize science with you. The king acanthus is one of the most delicious and most toxic fish in the world today. Its meat is more than a hundred times smoother and more delicate than ordinary fish meat, but at the same time The toxins carried on its fish skin are a hundred times more powerful than the venom of poisonous snakes!
Even if it is a large sea king, licking a small mouthful of the skin of the king acanthus may lead to death from the poison, and because the skin of the king acanthus is extremely difficult to cook, a little carelessness will cause the toxins in the skin to be released It penetrates into the fish and turns the entire dish into poison. Therefore, only chefs with master-level cooking skills dare to cook this kind of fish]

Having said this, the host handed the loudspeaker phone to Garrett's mouth:
"Ms. Garrett, can you guarantee that the king acanthus you cook does not contain any toxins? You must know that if there is an accident in your cooking, you may face a serious penalty of being unable to participate in the God of Cookery Challenge for life."

Garrett didn't say anything after hearing this. She just glanced at the host coldly, took the golden knife and fork from Opera's hand, cut a small piece of fish and put it into her mouth.

[Oh~elegant, so elegant!Ms. Garrett has proven to us with her practical actions that she is absolutely confident in her own cooking! 】

The host was bewitched by Garrett's elegant movements and his eyes were full of love. He immediately threw the previous speech out of the sky and turned into Garrett's dog-licking look.

In response, Garrett just glanced at the other party with disgust, then walked back to her competition seat. On the way back, she did not forget to glance at Ornn, which obviously meant to say, "My cooking is absolutely impossible." Lose to you”!
After Garrett returned to her competition seat, the four judges each picked up their knives and forks, cut a quarter of the fish and put it on their own plates.

Carefully placing the fish into their mouths, the four judges' eyes suddenly lit up after savoring two bites, and then they began to devour the fish in large mouthfuls, which was in sharp contrast to Garrett's elegant eating movements before.

"Oh, no, don't just eat, tell me something!"

The host couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw the four judges just burying their heads in eating.

After a while, the fat judge from before was the first to wipe the corners of his mouth:
“Because the king acanthus itself does not have a very obvious taste, and because this dish is fried in butter, this dish actually tests the chef’s control over the butter.

If you put too little butter, it will have no flavor and will destroy the taste of the king acanthus. If you put too much butter, it will overwhelm the freshness and sweetness of the fish itself, which is not good either.

This player controls the amount of butter very accurately. The ratio of fish to butter can basically reach a [-]/[-] level. The combination of the two flavors with sea salt and black pepper is also very smooth. The overall salty taste is very light. Moderate.

The lemon juice added at the end is the finishing touch. It not only greatly increases the sweetness of the king acanthus, but also greatly weakens the greasiness of the butter, making people never get tired of eating it.

Of today’s third group, what impressed me the most was the king acanthus and the strong chilled sea bream dish in front. Influenced by these two dishes, to be honest, I don’t know what the taste of the middle two dishes is. Already forgotten. "

The other three judges also nodded in agreement when they heard this - this almost made it clear that they would choose these two teams to advance.

As expected, after tasting the four dishes of the fourth group, the results of the competition were quickly announced. The two teams that qualified in the third group were the Holt Restaurant team and the Butter team!

"Great!"

Almost as soon as the host announced the results, the five masters hugged each other excitedly, and Yamato also smiled and hugged Aoun.

During the hug, the two obviously noticed someone looking at them, so they subconsciously turned around and found that the person looking at them was none other than Garrett in the distance.

Noticing that Aoun and Yamato were looking at each other, Garrett didn't know what to think, but she didn't look away. Instead, she took the initiative to come over with Opela.

"I didn't expect you, as the King's Shichibukai, to be good at cooking."

Quite unexpectedly, Garrett, who seemed cold and aloof, actually took the initiative to speak.Aoun and Yamato looked at each other, then smiled and said:

"Well, actually we are not good at cooking. We are just helping others as they are entrusted. The reason why we came to this food city this time is actually to find our favorite chef... We still lack a chef on the ship. Woolen cloth."

"Is there a lack of a chef..." Garrett was stunned for a moment, and after a moment she adjusted the expression on her face and said to the two of them:

"I hope I can compete with you in the finals."

After saying this, she turned around and left with Opera, who was still timid.

"Onn, what did the woman mean by repeating it just now?"

Yamato looked at Garrett's leaving figure and asked with some confusion.

After hearing this, Aoun also shook his head:

"I'm not so sure either."

Although he knew the plot of the original work, he still looked confused when faced with such things that were not mentioned in the original work.

"Don't think about it, maybe it's just a casual comment. Go back and prepare for the next game."

"Uh-huh!"

…………

At the same time that Aoun and others returned to Holt's restaurant, Garrett and Opela also returned to the luxury hotel they rented.

Not long after, Katakuri returned to the hotel with Strom:
"Congratulations Garrett, I heard that you have successfully entered the quarterfinals."

"It's just the top eight, not worth mentioning at all." Garrett chuckled, and then she didn't know what she thought of. She subconsciously turned her head and glanced at Opera and Strom who were chatting, and then whispered to Katakuri. :
"Brother Katakuri, there is something I want to talk to you about alone."

"Ok?"

Katakuri was stunned for a moment, but did not react strangely. He just led Garrett to the balcony and closed the soundproof balcony door.

"Tell me, what's the matter."

After Garrett hesitated for a moment, she finally plucked up the courage to speak:

"Brother Katakuri, if we really find Sister Laura in Puki, do you really want to take her back?"
