Gourmets in the Heavens

"Countless subtle flavors are stacked, not just the sweet and sour taste of the orange itself, I also tasted the taste of crab vinegar. I obviously didn't see you put vinegar when you were making it?"

De Fenglei was the first to taste it, and also the first to come to his senses.

The taste of Orange Lake crab is like a sharp sword, which directly broke through his taste buds, but the mystery of it cannot be known simply by tasting.

Otherwise, the recipes left by many high-level chefs will not move the existence of special grade or even higher grade.

"I marinated the pulp of an orange in vinegar..."

Zhao Yougan explained briefly.

There are many colors of vinegar, the common rice vinegar is transparent, and the mature vinegar is black, but there is also a kind of vinegar called red vinegar, which tastes clear and not irritating, and can be well combined with the sour taste of fruits without robbing fruit acid taste, but to add another sour taste.

More importantly, red vinegar is paired with crab meat and crab paste, which can easily take away the fishy smell of hairy crabs.

But that's not all the soup is alluring.

"It's not just the taste of oranges. I tasted a majestic mountain covered with oranges in the soup, and there is a meandering stream under the oranges, full of shadows of hairy crabs!"

With the help of the waiter, Nakiri Senzaemon changed into new clothes, and opened his mouth as if nothing had happened.

"The meringue you baked has become a part of the soup, and you have added the aroma of milk into the soup, which makes the traditional Yaozhou-style soup a little more of a continental thick soup!"

Without denying this, Zhao Youqian opened his mouth to explain his philosophy, which is also part of his teaching.

"Originally, this soup used chicken stock as the base to bring out the taste of crab and orange, but the rich and umami flavor of the hairy crab would make the chicken soup difficult to compete and lost the role of harmony, so I chose meringue, but not a layer Puff pastry, but sandwich puff pastry."

"There is a layer of fine white sauce inside, just baked, the extremely thin puff pastry will not only heat the cold crab soup, but the white sauce inside can also become the most important supporting part of the soup base."

"Let the sweet and sour and the umami thoroughly blend together!"

Hearing this, the students and the ten heroes present all suddenly realized, but they can understand Zhao Youqian's thinking, but they may not be able to cook this dish.

Not to mention other things, how to make the white sauce without showing any traces, blending it into the meringue, without stealing the taste of crab and orange, just becoming the backbone of support, the knowledge of this is not something that can be taught in a short time Will do.

Not to mention the ultra-thin puff pastry, if Zhao Youqian hadn't learned how to turn the white Luo snake chain, he might not be able to make it on the spot in time.

"The taste of fusion, the fusion of Eastern and Western cuisine ideas, this dish..."

The judges present all came to their senses, even Jiu Chong Lu Yuan couldn't believe it, because the soup he had tasted was almost turned into another dish in Zhao Youqian's hands, but this dish seemed to be more perfect !

"qualified!"

Saying five passes at the same time also means that Zhao Youqian has passed a quarter of the assessment, which is a good start, but once a dish is not satisfied and fails the assessment, all previous efforts will be wasted.

This is also the cruelest point of the Yue Samsung assessment.

Now that you have encountered the question of integration, if you can't let the judges get a satisfactory answer and taste the taste of the topic, you will fail directly!

No imperfection is allowed, this is the horror of the three-star assessment!

...

"Pass one?"

The person who had been watching this competition somewhere showed a sinister smile.

"That's the only way to hunt and kill!"

"Don't delay, come back, no matter whether he passed this test or not, what we have collected is enough!"

Someone at the corner of the cooking stage silently pressed the end button, quickly put away all the equipment, and then disappeared into Yuanyue Academy.

And it was at this time that the IGO staff noticed something was wrong in every routine inquiry and found the colleague who had been knocked unconscious.

...

The moment he heard the passing judgment, Zhao Youqian didn't look very relaxed, because he knew that the smooth start was just a prelude.

As long as his dishes touch the edge of the fusion topic, it won't be too difficult, the important thing is the next step!

Each dish has to fit the question of integration and yet be part of a true harmony.

This is the real difficulty of this assessment.

The ultimate fusion of flavors, even if it's just a fusion of dishes, rather than a fusion of one dish, has far exceeded the culinary scope of ordinary star chefs.

This is the reason why the three-star assessment is called a special assessment that is not a special assessment.

No matter what kind of problem you encounter, the more you taste your dishes later, the stricter the assessment of your depth of solving the problem will be!

And this kind of harshness, even the special-level assessment can't match...the difficulty of hell!

Chapter 96 The Suzaku with Wings (2/3, please recommend tickets, please collect!)

"Is ancient French cuisine combined with modern ideas, or flavors from other systems, for a balanced fusion?"

The nerd-looking young man next to Xingping Chuangzhen, his pupils under the glasses were full of shock.

He didn't expect Zhao Youqian to be able to recreate and build recipes from this aspect.

This shocked him infinitely, because he happened to be a scholar-like talent, but he didn't have much talent for actual on-the-spot cooking innovation and production.

According to Yuanyue's training method, he might become a culinary researcher, or an excellent sous chef, a culinary school instructor, and so on.

But Zhao Youqian's approach made him see another way, a way to continue walking in the majestic world of cooking!

Unknowingly clenched the notebook full of writing in his hand, Marui Zenji has decided that he must study by Zhao Youqian's side.
