The spicy teacher of the halberd

Of course, for chefs, although basic skills are important, the support of various skills such as molecular cuisine and medicinal dietetics is also essential.

For example, the colorful jelly arranged like a rainbow on the plate is the product of molecular cuisine.

“This is supposed to be synthetic pigment.” Alice, who is well versed in molecular cuisine, carefully observes the color of the jelly.

Synthetic pigments are divided into natural pigments and artificial pigments, compared with the extraction of natural pigments extracted from automatic plants and microorganisms, the artificial pigments extracted by chemical methods are more colorful, but will contain some substances that harm human health.

Moreover, compared with the natural aroma of natural pigments, artificial colors that are actually chemical products are often more pungent.

“Hmm… Should be a natural color. ”

“Congratulations on learning to answer questions.” Chang Wei nodded at Alice.

The jelly is colorful and ever-changing in color, and the colors are made with natural pigments.

Just as the three primary colors of electronic display devices are red, green and blue, that is, RGB addition three primary colors, pigment blending also has three primary colors – red, yellow and blue, that is, subtractive three primary colors. The kaleidoscopic colors are actually produced by mixing and blending these three primary colors in different proportions.

The red and blue undertones are the color of anthocyanins, natural pigments derived from grapes, elderberry, raspberries and red cabbage. Anthocyanins exhibit different colors at different pH conditions, red or purple under acidic conditions and blue under alkaline conditions. By controlling the pH of the solvent environment, different colors can be obtained.

Carotenoids can be used as a base color for yellow and red, and it is a product extracted from natural plants such as various fruits and vegetables.

“For example, this white and red jelly is made by mixing lycopene with milk pudding.”

Chang Wei carefully carved a white jelly with a touch of carmine, and soon another small flower appeared in shape, delicate and delicate and cute, delicate and clear like a bell.

“Lily of the valley!” The girls couldn’t help but shout.

If it weren’t for the girls seeing the whole process of this little flower being carved out with their own eyes, I am afraid that everyone would have bent down and came forward and sniffed the fragrance of this lily of the valley flower.

“The other kinds of jelly are also prepared with the pigments of these three primary colors with solvents, and the ever-changing proportions are adjusted to construct colorful color types.”

As the heirloom skill of his second young lady, for the little secretary, molecular cuisine has long been famous for a long time. However, at this time, she couldn’t help but sigh again: “Molecular cuisine… It’s awesome. ”

Glancing at the little secretary, Chang Wei couldn’t help but laugh.

“In fact, in a sense, this should also be regarded as a medicinal cuisine.”

“Medicated food?” The little secretary’s eyes lit up, “Could it be that medicinal herbs are also added to these jellies?” ”

“It’s not the medicinal herbs of those medicinal meals in your concept.” Chang Wei shook his head, “I mean, in fact, these natural pigments themselves are authentic nutrients.” ”

Anthocyanins derived from grape skins can reduce the risk of heart disease, anthocyanins derived from elderberry fruit have a resistance to influenza viruses, and anthocyanins derived from raspberries have a good protective effect on vision.

Carotenoids can supplement the body with various essential vitamins, and at the same time have antioxidant properties, which can prevent a variety of cancers and inflammation.

This lifelike jelly carving, from the inside to the outside, is the same as Erina’s pursuit of ultimate perfection, and like Alice and Little Secretary, the perfect application of molecular cuisine and medicinal dietetics is the same, and the meticulous pursuit of pigment color matching is consistent with glass.

It’s just a dessert, but it’s a perfect blend of styles.

“How to say, the chef must stick to his own style, but the creativity of cooking cannot be imprisoned by the same style.” Chang Wei considered the wording, “Cooking is like art, and the chef should have a wild imagination. ”

Chang Wei never worries about the level and potential of the girls’ cooking. They are well-deserved leaders among their peers in their respective fields.

For example, molecular cuisine, or medicinal cuisine, etc., are their own cooking styles, and they have always adhered to their own styles and taken their own independent paths, which is understandable and should be supported.

However, things are extremely opposite, and for them now, the biggest taboo is to be locked in their imagination by their own style and imprisoned hands and feet. Molecularization for the sake of molecularization, medicinal diet for the sake of medicinal diet, this is a taboo.

The girls bowed their heads thoughtfully, for them, today’s harvest is not just a little carving skill.

Seeing this, Chang Wei did not bother with any more words and continued to bury his head in his carving business.

Soon, five blue petals appeared, and the small and delicate flowers once again attracted the attention of the girls.

“Yes… Don’t forget the grass, right? Glass asked softly, and the little secretary nodded.

Chang Wei’s hand did not stop, and different kinds of carvings continued to appear in front of the girls, and everyone guessed the name of the flower with interest.

“This is hydrangea, I saw it in the yard of my house!” Pointing to the pale blue clusters of flowers, Alice shouted excitedly.

What follows is a bright yellow flower, resembling a chrysanthemum, but with fuller petals.

“Is this a chrysanthemum…”

“It’s Golden Retriever.” Chang Wei nodded and pointed to the equally bright and bright flowers on the side.

“This is a squamous chrysanthemum, and it is also a type of chrysanthemum.”

The flowers that followed were colorful and full of petals, and the girls laughed when they saw them.

“I know this, it’s a peony.” Alice spoke first.

“Everyone on Earth knows.” Chang Wei also laughed, “Then what kind of flower is this?” ”

Alice looked at the purple flowers in the disk that resembled pentagrams, her face full of doubts.

“This is…”

“It’s Kikyo.” The little secretary relieved Alice.

“Kikyo? Is it the flower of an orange tree? Alice asked, tilting her head.

“It’s worthy of being a young lady from Northern Europe, who can always say amazing words.” Chang Wei sighed and said, “Don’t say that you are my student when you go out, obviously Neon also has Kirito, I don’t know.” ”

Alice puffed out her mouth in dissatisfaction.

“Kratom has nothing to do with oranges.” The little secretary smiled and said, “The root of the bellflower is a medicinal herb, and I also learned about the bellflower because of my research on medicinal diets. ”

The last flower disc is as large as a sunflower, and the petals are as rich and full as peonies, and it is difficult for the girl to register the name for a while.

“It’s called dahlia, it’s also called dalihua.” Chang Wei smiled, “This is the mascot of gamblers. ”

“Lucky day, eat chicken at night.”
