Food: I Am A Cartoonist In Totsuki

Chapter 164: Show Your Mind

The popular lychee waist flower can be known as one of the “nine most difficult Sichuan dishes” in Sichuan cuisine, which obviously has its reason.

This dish is a combination of three major difficulties: knife work, heat, and seasoning. Errors in any process will affect the quality of the dish.

And Tong Yu is obviously very successful, even Erina’s “God’s Tongue” could not find any flaws, lost himself in the delicious food, and even had the “illusion” of being overwhelmed because the food was too delicious.

It took less than a minute for a whole plate of cooking to be wiped out by the five people in the house, which is enough to see that the deliciousness of this dish is simply unstoppable.

After eating, everyone, including Erina, looked unsatisfied, obviously not enough.

“No, I didn’t expect the combination of lychee and pork loin, yet the taste is so delicious and strange.

“Pork loin, which is basically useless in Japanese cuisine, but it can be cooked so deliciously in Sichuan cuisine.”

Tadokoro Megumi noticed something, but said unsurely, “However, is this white pulp really lychee?”

Erina also gradually recovered from the delicious intoxication, and when she heard Tadokoro Megumi’s words, she couldn’t help but say: “That’s not the real lychee, the real form is the vegetable burdock.”

“Wrong, it’s sweet and sour, the taste is the same as the pulp, it’s not lychee?”

Yuuki looked surprised and said: “Impossible, and the name of this dish is “Hot lychee waist flower, why use burdock instead?”

Everyone’s eyes fell on Tong Yu, waiting for his explanation.

Tong Yu then slowly said: “The “lychee” in this dish refers to “lychee flavor. There are 24 flavors in Sichuan cuisine, which can be divided into three major types.

In Tong Yu’s explanation, everyone in the house learned about the “flavor” of Sichuan cuisine.

The first category is “spicy and spicy”, including spicy, red oil, paste, hot and sour, pepper and numb, home-style, spicy lychee, fish, tangerine peel, strange and so on.

The second category is the “spicy flavor type”, which includes garlic, ginger, mustard, sesame sauce, smoke, sauce, five flavors, and bad flavor.

The third category is “salty, fresh, sour and sweet flavors”, including salty and fresh, sweaty, tomato juice, mellow, sweet, lychee, sweet and sour.

And the “lychee flavor” in the “hot lychee waist flower” made by Tong Yu belongs to one of the “savory, fresh, sour and sweet flavors”.

Because of its sweet and sour taste, it tastes close to lychee, hence the name.

However, the traditional “hot lychee waist flower” does not use burdock, but only modulates the “lychee flavor”, and then adds it together when frying the waist flower.

Obviously, this is Tong Yu’s improvement, adding his own creativity to the tradition.

“Ju. It’s really amazing that the taste of burdock is the same as that of lychee.”

“This method is somewhat similar to the “Magic Mapo Tofu” made by Mr. Tong Yu before. The ground meat of this dish is also replaced by soybeans…

Everyone praised them like this, but Erina lowered her head and was touched again in her heart.

In addition to the impeccable taste, Tong Yu’s dish also has a heart-warming feeling, which is like tasting the dishes of her most admired Master, Jōichirō.

That kind of longing and desire for dishes stimulates the passion of the chef in the heart.

Although it is not the first time to taste Tong Yu’s dishes, the emotion in the dishes this time gave her a huge impact.

This taste, I seem to remember, it is this taste. At first, I just wanted to cook such a dish, and I remembered it!

At this moment, Erina broke free from her shackles and understood what real food is.

“Listen Erina, only the dishes that I agree with and the dishes created by the central food organization are the so-called “dishes”. The other dishes are all “food”, I will learn them from this The garden is cleaned up. All the students of this school will become my most loyal army, so that Tōtsuki can become stronger.”

you are wrong.….

“The idea of ​​the agency will soon cover the entire country in the future, and restaurants in Japan will be destroyed. I think this is also something that can’t be done.”

you are wrong.…

“In the promotion exam, I think you should understand your situation regarding those students who don’t follow the guidelines of the general teacher.”

You are wrong too…

Wrong, father and Eishi Tsukasa they were both wrong.

Between the so-called chef and the many dishes made by the chef, there is the so-called freedom.

Erina’s heart was completely released, and at this moment she finally made a decision in her heart, suddenly opened her eyes and stood up.

“I made a decision!”

“what?”

Tong Tong “Yu Yujun, let’s be together from now on. With me and you leading everyone together, we will be able to successfully overcome this difficulty!”

Erina can say these words, obviously she has made a lot of determination, and she also has a clear goal of working hard in the future.

Seeing this, Tong Yuyu also laughed with relief, at least his efforts during this period of time were not in vain.

“Erina, I’m very happy that you can find yourself, and we are willing to go through the difficulties with you. But I still want to remind you that with us, sooner or later, you will face the enemy of your father. Do you really think about it?” Dong Yu asked road.

With a firm look on her face, Erina nodded heavily: “I, I know, I want to use this action to make my father understand that his concept is wrong. Whether it’s my mother (Denuo is good) or me, “God’s Tongues shouldn’t be sacrificed, and if you understand this from the beginning, maybe your mother won’t either.”

“I am relieved with your words. As for the issue of ‘God’s Tongue’, you don’t need to worry at all. If you want, I can take you and your mother to a whole new world of food, the food of this world. It’s a territory that your God’s Tongue has never set foot in. ” Dong Yu said to Erina.

“Just, the world of gourmet food that even God Tongue has never set foot in? Is there really such a world?”

“Yes, as long as you stick to your current beliefs, one day you will go to that world with us.

Yuki and Hisako thought Miyu was saying something to comfort Erina, but only Sōma and Tong Yu understood that it wasn’t comforting, that there was a world like that.
