Gourmets of the Heavens

"Kyoto cockfight?"

Unlike ordinary audiences, Minako Uemiya is obviously very sensitive to this strange name.

The timely interjection also gave the two great figures a chance to show their knowledge.

"I don't know, what's the difference between this chicken and ordinary Kyoto chicken?"

I have to say that as the host, Minako Uemiya speaks at the perfect timing every time, especially at this time, the judges don't have much to say, and the charming images of the three female judges can't be played all the time Bar?

"It should be said that Kyoto chicken is a weakened version of Kyoto game cock, which is easier to raise and cook."

Jiu Chong Lu Yuan did his part to become the commentator.

"Cockfighting once became popular in Kyoto Imperial Palace, and the Kyoto Gamecock was bred at that time among the legendary chickens. Its strong feathers, bones comparable to steel, and unusually tough chicken make it the king of cockfighting."

"Later, cockfighting competitions gradually withdrew from the stage of history, and Kyoto cockfighting gradually became a model that was difficult to raise and cook."

"That's how common chicken breeds were hybridized with Kyoto gamecocks, and the current Kyoto Imperial Specialty Kyoto Chicken appeared."

"The chicken is full of elasticity, juicy, and more delicious than ordinary chicken. These good names added to Kyoto chicken are all put on Kyoto game chicken, and then enlarged ten times, it is almost the actual delicacy of Kyoto game chicken! "

Blinking her eyes, Minako Uemiya's big round eyes were full of puzzlement.

"Why does such a chicken become a legendary ingredient? Even if it is difficult to cook, it shouldn't be difficult for so many cooks in Kyoto Imperial Palace!"

There are more detailed historical reasons for this. Jiusong Luyuan has only been here as the head of the IGO branch for only five years, so naturally he will not cover everything, so the microphone is handed over to Nakiri Senzaemon, the demon king of food. .

"Breeding is too difficult!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Nakiri Senzaemon told the public a fact.

"As a fighting cock, every Kyoto fighting cock can get rich rewards, but when it becomes an ingredient, the risk is out of proportion to the reward, which is the reason why the Kyoto fighting cock is dying out!"

"You must know that at that time, not only did raising Kyoto game cocks require almost all-day care, but also game cocks were extremely dangerous. Farmers were injured or even killed by game cocks every year."

Hearing this reason, all the people present understood why this kind of fighting cock became a legendary ingredient. It was not because of its amazing taste, but because it was too dangerous and the rate of return was too low.

However, according to Nakiri Senzaemon, this kind of gamecock cannot survive in the wild and can only be raised artificially, so it is normal for such troublesome poultry to become a legend.

After hearing such rumors and anecdotes, everyone felt a little bit filled with the hunger awakened by Zhao Youqian's cooking, and the atmosphere at the scene calmed down a lot.

The three female judges also came to their senses, but the way they looked at Zhao Youqian was different now.

That stimulating and warm feeling made it impossible for them to treat Zhao Youqian normally.

It was so shameful and so unforgettable.

"So, how many points will the judges give to Chef Zhao's dish?"

"Let's take a look together!"

Following the announcement of Minako Uemiya, a string of numbers on the big screen has been displayed.

"yes!!"

"It's five out of ten!"

"My God, let's congratulate Chef Zhao Youqian, he got the highest score now, and also the highest score in this competition, with a full score of 30 points!"

Amidst Minako Uemiya's astonishing announcement and the amazement of the audience, the five judges gave their evaluations.

Regardless of whether it is a formal competition or not, a dish that has reached the special standard, rather than limited to the standard level of cooking, is worthy of full marks.

Even Nakiri Erina, who was not reconciled to having her tongue conquered again, grinned at Zhao Yougan and threatened Zhao Yougan, while honestly giving a perfect score.

This surprised Zhao Youqian, originally he thought that this Tsundere would have to deduct one point no matter what.

"Isn't the championship going to a Yaozhou native?"

Soon there were such voices among the audience. Although the relationship between Yaozhou and Dongying has been stable, there are also different voices, especially since Dongying entered the western gourmet world, the threat theory of Yaozhou has been banned repeatedly.

Although it was just an entertainment competition, a Yaozhou native won the first place championship, which made many people feel uncomfortable.

So Kondo Haidian, who also has legendary ingredients praised by the judges and has not yet been served, has become the target of this type of people.

"Chef Kondo, come on!"

"Get that Yaozhou kid down!"

With the sound of cheers, there was a wave of waves, and Zhao Youqian, who had already stepped back from the judging stage and returned to his cooking table to rest, just smiled and looked at Kondo Haidian's dying struggle.

“So what about premium level cuisine!”

"With the king bream and Luohan crystal chop, I can also achieve full marks!"

At this moment, he no longer expected to beat Zhao Youqian in this competition, Kondo Haidian gritted his teeth and spoke to the assistant beside him.

"Prepare liquid nitrogen!"

As if aware that Kondo Haidian was finally about to make a move, the camera immediately zoomed out to get a full view of Kondo Garden's cooking counters.

Kondo Haidian took out a frozen round iron bucket from the freezer, and his two assistants kept spraying liquid nitrogen on the cutting board to cool down. For a while, the white fog was thick, and the air-conditioning covered the entire cooking table. shrouded.

Even the faucet has begun to condense on a layer of frost.

"What is he doing?"

The thawed king bream meat, as if it could breathe, exuded a faint white fluorescence and put it aside.

Natsuya Chiho, the queen of curry, looked at Kondo Haidian's movements strangely.

"It's just some unseen tricks!"

He has already learned from his grandfather that Kondo Kaidian has learned the cooking skills of a dark cook, and Nakiri Erina is particularly disgusted with him.

The moment Nakiri Erina's voice fell, Kondo Kaidian had already opened the frozen cylinder, and he held a thin transparent ice blade in his hand.

Jiu Chong Lu Yuan showed a look of surprise, of course he recognized what it was.

"Beichen Sirius Blade?"

Just as he was stunned, Nakiri Senzaemon's voice sounded.

"It's just an imitation. He can't hold the real Beichen Sirius Blade. It will freeze his arm in an instant, and the real one should emit a faint blue light."

With Nakiri Senzaemon's evaluation, the astonishment in Jiusong Luyuan's eyes subsided, and instead he showed a thoughtful expression.

It is not known whether it was the pain caused by the extremely low temperature, or Kondo Haidian's use of dark cooking techniques to change his mind.

I saw him suppressing his distorted face, put the king bream on the cutting board that had been extremely frozen, and began to cut it like a demon.

Slices of king bream meat, crystal clear like a mirror, fell on the outer layer of the iceberg that had been piled up on the plate at the same time as it was being sliced. The astonishing knife skills seemed to form an ever-changing rainbow mirror in the air.

And when the king bream meat landed on the iceberg, the luminescent and radiant appearance also caused a burst of noise from the audience.

"Look, look, we, Dong Ying, also have powerful masters!"

For ordinary people, this kind of skill is indeed much more exciting than that of Onimaru Sanhuo, and I also feel that Kondo Haidian is indeed the most skilled person present.

"Crack!"

There was a strange sound, and the cut was not finished, but halfway through, the ice blade in Kondo Haidian's hand was completely broken.

Kondo Haidian, whose distorted expression eased a little, soaked his hands in warm water, and then served freshly ground wasabi made from shark skin, and Kondoen's special soy sauce to enhance the deliciousness of king snapper.

A whole block of iceberg sea bream sashimi shining with a faint blue light was sent to the judging stage.

"Chilled King Snapper Mountain!"

"Please taste!"

Kondo Haidian exhaled in a deep voice, showing a confident look.

And Nakiri Senzaemon and Jiusong Luyuan just looked at each other regrettably, then directly lifted the chopsticks, and then picked up a piece of fish, without dipping it in sauce, and put it in their mouths.

The fish meat cut with extremely low-temperature ice blades is as thin as a cicada's wing, but with a hint of freezing chill, like a smoothie, giving people the illusion of freshness in the mouth.

It's like a living king snapper flicking its tail at you in its mouth.

'ba da'

However, after eating this quasi-superior dish, not only did Jiu Chong Luyuan not fall into the illusion, but even Nakiri Senzaemon's clothes did not burst.

And Nakiri Erina, who is the tongue of God, even spat out half of the fish after taking a bite.

The proud eldest lady didn't know what it means to give people face. She gave Kondo Haidian a contemptuous look, and gave her rating coldly.

"Three points, unqualified!"

And Kondo Haidian, who had been smiling calmly, seemed to have been thrown into hell, his eyes were bloodshot, and he roared hysterically.

"why why!"

"Why do I only get three points for my painstaking cooking?"

"Impossible, impossible!"
