82. Cooking Beef

Catherine cut the beef into uniform thickness and placed it on the stove. Holding two knives in both hands, she kept beating the beef with the back of the knife.

The purpose of Catherine's doing this is to break up the surface of the beef, which can make it more flavorful when it is marinated.In fact, it is also possible to simply use a knife to cut a few knife marks on the surface of the beef, but the degree of taste and uniformity is far from that of Catherine.

Moreover, with her superb knife skills, Catherine can smash the surface of the beef without affecting the texture of the beef itself.

After beating, Catherine evenly spread a small amount of salt and pepper on the surface of the beef.In order to ensure that the deliciousness of the beef itself is not affected to the greatest extent, Catherine only uses very little seasoning.

Then, put the beef into the container, and then pour in the 331-year-old Fira red wine diluted according to a strictly controlled ratio, so that the red wine just covers the beef.Then Catherine put the container into the incubator and let the beef marinate for three to 10 minutes at a strictly set temperature, so that the aroma of red wine can be integrated into the beef to the maximum extent.

The reason for diluting the red wine is because the taste of this red wine is relatively strong, so as to prevent the overly strong taste from overwhelming the taste of the beef itself.

Catherine's steps are all under extremely strict and precise control. While making the red wine taste just right to neutralize the spoiled taste, it will not be too strong to cover up the taste of the beef itself, and it will not be too weak to neutralize the spoiled taste. , and stimulate the deliciousness of the beef itself as much as possible.

After processing a batch of beef, Catherine immediately processed the next batch of beef. At this time, Catherine was processing the beef. After all the beef was processed and marinated one after another, she could quickly fry another batch of beef. a steak.

More than 20 minutes later, Mu Yunfan, Phyllis, and Charlotte, who had disappeared, hadn't returned yet.

At this time, the audience couldn't help whispering again. Although everyone didn't really believe that Mu Yunfan would escape, there were still more and more people guessing whether Mu Yunfan really ran away with his restaurant members.

At this time, the most anxious person among all the people on the scene was Leonora.

Leonola clenched her fists secretly, why didn't you come back, woo woo woo, why didn't you take me with you if you wanted to run away?She felt like she had been abandoned.

Nearly 10 minutes passed, and at this time Catherine had already processed all the beef for marinating, and the batch of beef that was first marinated was about to be marinated and ready to be taken out for production.

Catherine wiped the sweat from her white forehead and raised her head to see that Mu Yunfan had finally returned.But he was the only one who came back, Phyllis Charlotte and Boss Doro didn't come back, and Mu Yunfan was empty-handed and didn't bring anything.

The audience was noisy again and again, not knowing what Mu Yunfan was doing.

At this time, Mu Yunfan returned to the stage and finally started cooking.

Mu Yunfan took out a large piece of beef, took two hatchets in his hand, and chopped the beef into minced meat.

Then grab a handful of salt and sprinkle it in, grab a handful of black pepper and sprinkle it in, grab a handful of chicken essence and sprinkle it in, grab a handful of starch and sprinkle it in, and then pour in soy sauce, cooking wine, and vegetable oil...

Seeing Mu Yunfan's actions, Catherine and the restaurant owners and chefs were dumbfounded.

Mu Yunfan cut the beef into minced meat very well, as fast as the legendary Shadowless Whirlwind knife technique, even Catherine sighed.

But this is not what surprised everyone. What surprised everyone was that Mu Yunfan actually added a lot of seasoning to the beef.He is using the lowest level, the method that chefs most disdain to use to deal with this piece of beef!

The restaurant owner and chefs were all dumbfounded, looking at Mu Yunfan in disbelief.

One of the Big Three restaurants, Albert, the owner of Duolong Restaurant, which is famous for its steaks, said in disbelief: "How could he handle the beef in such a low-level way? He didn't know that doing so would completely destroy the taste of the beef, the seasoning Will it completely cover up the deliciousness of the beef? Why would a top chef like him make such a low-level mistake?"

The bosses and chefs around were silent, no one dared to casually say that Mu Yunfan was not good, because the soufflé omelette just now fully proved Mu Yunfan's strength.However, everyone really couldn't believe why Mu Yunfan used such a low-level method to deal with beef.

At this time, Chef Ruby of Duka Restaurant pondered and said: "Could it be that Mu Yunfan is a chef who specializes in certain areas, because he is too specialized in areas of expertise, so he doesn't know anything about areas that are not specialized in?"

The chefs around immediately nodded.

In fact, all the chefs here have their own special expertise, but they are not completely ignorant of non-expertise.For chefs like them, even in non-specialized aspects, they are much better than ordinary chefs.

But Mu Yunfan is likely to be a special case, because he is too specialized in areas of expertise, so he knows nothing about areas of non-expertise.This also makes sense why Mu Yunfan's cooking skills are so high.

Du Lulu said suddenly: "So, Mu Yunfan might lose this round?"

All the bosses and chefs were in an uproar, and the originally unsuspecting duel suddenly changed.

At this time, Louis, who was beside the stage, saw Mu Yunfan handle the beef in such a low-level way, and his heart burst into ecstasy.

Sure enough, sure enough!Mu Yunfan relies on recipes to make such delicacies. Without recipes, he is no match for Catherine!

Among the audience, many who were familiar with food felt different about Mu Yunfan's low-level handling of beef. Gradually, some people began to suspect that Mu Yunfan didn't know how to handle steak.

In the referee's seat, Green City Lord and others also expressed their incomprehension, but Leonola remained silent. Leonola has felt the surprise brought by Mu Yunfan more than once, so at this time she subconsciously I believe that Mu Yunfan will definitely surprise her again.

This is a man who I like, ah, no, I think it's a good man.

Master Luther smiled and said: "It seems that this Mu Yunfan is not as good as the legend, he is simply a rookie in beef. How can such a partial person be qualified to be the first chef of Lighthouse City? You say Really? Your Highness."

Leonola didn't like him at all, making him a big mess.

But at this moment on the stage, Catherine watched Mu Yunfan handle the beef in such a low-level way. At this moment, she only felt an incomparable anger rising from her heart.

what do you mean?Are you looking down on me, are you going to be perfunctory?

At this moment, Catherine only felt a great humiliation, and she gritted her teeth.Since you look down on me like this, I will make the most delicious steak to impress you!

At this time, the first batch of marinated beef had been marinated, and Catherine took out the beef to start frying.

Frying steak is also a very test of cooking skills for chefs.

The degree of doneness of steak is generally divided into medium-rare, medium-rare, medium-rare, medium-rare, and medium-rare.

The lower the maturity of the beef, the more tender and juicy it is, and the meat quality and deliciousness of the beef itself can be kept to the maximum extent.

Especially medium-rare beef, which is the most tender and juicy beef, and the most original meat. Of course, the quality of the beef itself is also very high.

This degree of maturity is loved by many senior steak lovers.However, half-cooked beef is actually close to being eaten raw, and there will be a lot of blood in the beef, which is unacceptable to many people.

The more done the beef, the tougher the meat will become.If it is medium-rare, it can be said to be fully cooked at this time, and the beef will become firm and chewy, but at this time the beef has basically no taste of its own, and many people think it is too old.

For people in Beacon City, the most popular is seven-ripe, because this level of ripeness is when the beef is just bloodless, and it will not be too old, leaving the beef fresh and chewy at the same time.This is the best choice for the people of Beacon City who generally cannot accept blood in beef.

However, at this time, what Catherine is going to do now is not seven-ripe steak, but a more even taste, which can retain the freshness and tenderness of the beef to a greater extent!

Five maturity, compared with seven maturity, can retain the deliciousness of these top beef.

Of course, a five-year-old steak will have some bloodshot eyes, which will be unacceptable to a large number of viewers.However, with her culinary skills, Catherine has a way to remove these bloodshots!

83. Red Wine Steak

This method is very simple to say, that is, first fry the beef until it is fully mature, let it stand for two to three minutes, then fry it until it is half-ripe, let it stand for another two to three minutes, and finally fry it until it is half-ripe.

However, although it is easy to say, it is extremely difficult to operate, because increasing the degree of ripeness little by little has extremely high requirements on the control of the heat, and a little bit of poor control during the process will affect the final quality of the beef.However, with her culinary skills, Catherine can achieve extremely precise control!

At this time, Mu Yunfan was still chopping up pieces of beef one after another, and then added a bunch of various seasonings to the beef.

Catherine concentrated her utmost energy on frying each steak, and soon, the first batch of steaks for the five referees was ready.

The staff presented five plates of steak to the table of the five referees.

Catherine smiled and said, "This is a red wine steak, please enjoy."

For the steak she cooked carefully, Catherine has regained her confidence at this moment.

Lord Green and the others looked down at the steak, and then smelled an intoxicating aroma of wine mixed with the deliciousness of beef wafting into their nostrils.

Master Luther was pleasantly surprised: "Oh! This piece of beef uses 331-year-old Fira red wine, which is my favorite year of red wine!"

Grandpa Henry said: "Red wine has a unique and complex aroma. If it is used well, it can indeed neutralize the taste of spoiled beef. However, the 331-year-old Fira red wine has a strong taste. Some people describe that this red wine tastes like a cow. A violent beast. If it is used improperly, it may directly destroy the deliciousness of the beef itself. I wonder how Miss Catherine will deal with it?"

Lord Green chuckled and said, "Stop talking so much, eat it quickly. I can't wait to have a sip when I smell the aroma of this wine!"

So the five cut out a piece of beef with a knife and fork and put it in their mouths to chew.

In an instant, the tender texture and delicious taste of the top beef itself spread in the mouth under the guidance of the aroma of the 331-year-old Fira red wine!

The fresh and tender taste of beef filled the mouth, and the delicious taste was set off by the aroma of the wine. The five of them could only feel a wonderful whirlwind in the mouth that stimulated the taste buds in the mouth.

The aroma of the 331 Fira red wine is unique and intense, like a raging beast.However, under Catherine's careful cooking, while retaining the unique taste of the wine, this violent beast is perfectly tamed, making its aroma milder, perfectly blending with the delicious meat quality of the top beef, and complementing each other.

At this moment, the five referees only felt that they were riding in a small boat made of top-quality beef, swinging forward in the sea of ​​331-year-old Fira red wine.

Lord Green swallowed the beef in his mouth, and sighed with admiration: "I can only feel the incomparably fresh and tender meat from this beef, and the delicious taste of the beef itself gives off a wonderful enjoyment against the aroma of the wine. I don't feel any bad taste at all. It's really unimaginable that a piece of beef that has gone stale can be so delicious!"

Prieter was shocked and said: "Not only that, why, why can this piece of beef be so tender and juicy? All the seven-year-old steaks I have eaten don't have such a taste!"

Catherine smiled and said, "This is actually a medium-ripe steak."

Preet was shocked. "How is it possible? There is obviously no blood in it?"

Preet is a typical person who can't accept the blood in the beef. He can't eat it when he sees the blood in the steak, so he has never eaten a medium-rare steak.

Catherine briefly described the process of removing the bloodshot.

Preet was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing. "It's really Miss Catherine! You actually created this method, and you let me experience such a wonderful beef texture for the first time in my life! It seems that I can let my chef do this in the future!"

Mr. Henry from "Discovering Gourmet" said with a smile: "Mr. Preet, I'm afraid you can only come to Miss Catherine if you want to eat this kind of mature steak in the future. Because the method she said sounds simple, but in reality It is extremely difficult to operate. Every step requires precise control of the heat and time, and even if there is a mistake in it, it is impossible to make this kind of steak."

Grandpa Henry paused and continued: "And I think the most difficult thing about this red wine steak is not this, but that it uses the 331-year-old Fila red wine known as the violent beast. Not only did Catherine completely tame the violent taste At the same time, it perfectly uses its complex taste to cover up the taste of the beef itself, and it also maximizes the deliciousness of the beef. This cannot be done without super high cooking skills. For this delicacy, I'm thinking about whether to give an S-level or higher evaluation."

As soon as Mr. Henry said this, the people around him immediately caused a commotion.

"My God! Did Miss Catherine's food actually get a rating of S or above?"

"Wait, don't get excited. Mr. Henry just said that he is considering whether to give an evaluation above S-level. But Boss Mu's Souffle Omme just gave SS-level without hesitation!"

"Um, this is indeed undeniable, but it was the delicious food in the last round. Look at what Mu Yunfan is cooking now, how could his low-level cooking techniques be better than Miss Catherine? It seems that Catherine will win this round Miss."

The audience talked a lot, although the vast majority of the audience still had expectations for the delicious food that Mu Yunfan was about to cook.However, they saw that Mu Yunfan was using the lowest level of cooking techniques, and they heard that Catherine's red wine beef received such a high evaluation. Many people already thought that this round would be Catherine's victory.

Master Luther smiled and said: "The food cooked by Miss Catherine has always been of a consistent top level, do you think so, Your Highness?"

Leonola, who was hidden in the black cloak, said lightly: "Not bad."

Catherine soon returned to the stage, cooking one after another of red wine steaks for the staff to give to the audience who were eligible to taste the food of the second round.

The audience didn't have a table, so they put the plates on their laps to cut and eat, and then burst into exclamation and admiration.After tasting Catherine's red wine steak, more and more viewers believed that this round would be Catherine's victory.

Among the restaurateur chefs, Du Lulu and Rich were unlucky enough not to get the right to taste the food in the second game, while their respective chefs Will and Robertson were lucky enough to get it again.

Will and Robertson felt that the relationship with their bosses should not be too tense, so they shared half of the steaks with the two bosses.

Mr. Jack and his wife were also drawn by one of them, and they tasted it separately.

Mina was unlucky not to draw this time, but Sak did.Considering that children can't drink alcohol, Sac shared a small piece with Mina, who chewed happily.

Rosa was so unlucky that she didn't get a draw this time, and Martin immediately gave half of the draw to Rosa generously.

The audience devotedly tasted the red wine steak made by Catherine, and some people enthusiastically distributed a little steak to the audience who didn't get it.Because they don't know if they can get the right to taste the third game.Now share some with the people around you, and if you don't get it in the third game, the people around you will also share some with you.

Catherine's red wine steaks were about to be distributed. At this time, most of the audience believed that this round would be Catherine's victory.The outcome of the two will not be known until the final game.

At this time, Mu Yunfan on the stage had already made all the beef into patties mixed with a lot of seasonings and fried them.Then he took out the onion and chopped it, cut the vegetable leaves into small pieces, sliced ​​the pickles, and cut the pineapple into one centimeter thickness.The audience didn't know what Mu Yunfan was going to do.
