Gentleman's Night Canteen

At this time, you can see that the uppermost opening of the tomato skin will slowly wrinkle. At this time, you only need to lift the wrinkled part to easily remove it. If the resistance is relatively large, pour some hot water on it.

When Lan Meng processed the ingredients, the pot on the other side was basically heated up.

It should be noted that this time is different from usual in that it needs to heat the pan before pouring oil.

Put cold oil in the hot pan, heat the olive oil to a suitable temperature, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, then put the marinated tail meat into the pan and start frying.

It doesn't need to be fully cooked, it is enough to fry until golden on both sides to ensure that the gravy can easily ooze out during the next cooking process.

At this point the onions and carrots can be added.

The purpose of adding these two ingredients is also to remove the fishy smell.

Stir fry until the onions and carrots are soft, then add red wine and simmer until the soup is thick before adding tomatoes.

The cube-shaped diced tomatoes gradually softened under high temperature heating, and the orange-red tomato juice also oozes out and mixes with the red wine in the pot. The unique aroma of the wine is mixed with the sweet and sour taste of the tomatoes Immediately, the smell permeates, making people appetite...

Chapter 21 Go first and I've got it!

As the aroma of tomatoes and red wine gradually diffused, Blue Dream also entered the final step.

Pour the broth prepared in advance into the pot and simmer on low heat.

Not only that, in order to ensure its sweet and sour taste, Lanmeng has added new diced tomatoes. If you like sour and sweet, you can also add some tomato sauce. However, Lanmeng is confident in the quality of its tomatoes, but this step can be omitted.

The next thing Lan Meng needs to do is to simmer over low heat.

And it is precisely because of this that Lan Meng also has time to pay attention to Thor's cooking.

The other party was heating up the piece of tail meat as usual, and Lan Meng was still confused, not knowing what the other party was going to do, but at this time the other party had a new step, the other party started to boil the soup in a pot, but did not Know how to use it.

Could it be that the roasted tail meat is directly thrown in?

Shouldn't it?

Judging from the other party's confident expression before, it shouldn't be possible to do such a weird thing, right?

Then something even more unexpected happened to Lan Meng. After the soup was cooked, the other party poured it into a bowl directly and prepared to serve the grilled tail meat?

What the hell? !

Lan Meng was really confused this time.

But Thor returned to the restaurant with the grilled meat and soup confidently.

"Kobayashi~!! I'm done!!"

At this time, Thor seemed to have completely forgotten that there were several other diners in the store. With a bright smile on her face, she held a plate with tail meat in one hand and a plate with soup in the other. big bowl.

"Sauce~!!"

Accompanied by Thor's strange sound effect with his mouth, the tail meat was placed directly on the table.

Looking at the roasted black lacquered tail, everyone showed a somewhat confused expression, especially Xiao Lin's expression became extremely subtle.

"Thor, can you...can you eat it?"

Following Kobayashi's questioning, everyone looked at Thor in unison. It was obvious that everyone had similar doubts. Only the head chef glanced at the porcelain bowl aside.

On the other side, Thor showed a very contrived expression of grievance.

"Little Lin~ You don't believe me..."

It's a pity that Kobayashi has long been immune to Thor's cute attack.

Only Connor, who is a foodie and has absolute trust in Thor, took two glances and opened his mouth as if intending to gnaw on him directly, but at this moment, a hand blocked the opponent's mouth.

"Not yet~Connor~"

While talking, she looked at the Snowball Beast who was held in Kobayashi's arms.

That's right, Snowball Beast has been hugged by Kobayashi since Lanmeng came back. After all, Thor is busy competing with Lanmeng, and Connor is busy cooking. As for Merlin, although he is a little curious, Snowball Beast doesn't seem to like him. As for Artoria's attention was always in the direction of the kitchen.

Suddenly being stared at by Thor at this time, Snowball Beast couldn't help showing a puzzled expression.

Although he was a little envious of Snowball Beast who could be held in Kobayashi's arms, Thor still hugged him.

"Blow on 'it'."

Thor's request made Snowball Beast a little puzzled, but it opened its mouth obediently.

"Diamond Star"

This is the only ability that the Snowball Beast has mastered. Although it sounds powerful, it actually just blows out a burst of cold air with icy shards. In fact, its lethality...may be lower than that of the air conditioner, and its endurance Not as powerful as the air conditioner.

But it is enough to cool down.

Everyone is a little curious about Thor's strange operation, especially Thor's confident expression does not look like pure dark cooking no matter how you look at it.

Then, with the snowball beast blowing, an incredible scene happened.

"Crack~!"

The earth sand dragon's carapace, which even an adult man couldn't easily split open, unexpectedly had cracks under the cold air blown by the snowball beast.

Seeing the cracked earth sand dragon tail in front of her eyes, Thor couldn't help showing a confident smile. After returning the snowball beast to Kobayashi, she picked up a side plate and poured the sauce on it with a spoon.

"Crack~Crack~"

Accompanied by bursts of crisp sounds, the previous cracks became bigger and bigger, and Thor poured all the sauces on it at one time until there was no sound at all.

This last layer of sauce directly washed away all the carapace fragments on the top, exposing the meat inside.

It wasn't until this time that everyone saw the 'true face' of Thor's dish in a real sense.

Generally speaking, the color of the meat after roasting will be dark brown, but the roasted meat made by Lanmeng generally presents a special amber color, which is because the special honey seasoning mixed with Lanmeng is mixed during roasting. The result of the double effect of reducing fat, but Thor's 'barbecue' is completely different.

As the sauce poured on it slowly dripped, everyone could clearly see that its color was even lighter than the barbecue made by Lan Meng.

Everyone can basically guess the principle. It should be related to the roasting of the other side through the shell, and the final cracking should also be thermal expansion and contraction.

But knowing the principle belongs to knowing the principle, which is similar to understanding the brain but not necessarily understanding it with the hands. Even the head chef who is Teacher Lan Meng can't help but admire it. After all, it requires a strong ability to manipulate flames. It took several years to get to this point.

It’s just that novelty is novelty, the most important thing about a dish is how it tastes.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Thor took out the table knife very elegantly and cut out five portions of the meat on the plate.

That's right!

At this time, Thor actually changed his previous habit of cutting ingredients directly with his claws, and instead used a table knife.

Why would she do this?

It's very simple, she naturally doesn't care about Lan Meng, who she is hostile to, but in order to maintain her "good image (not)" in Xiao Lin's mind, she actually pays attention to many things, such as minimizing the use of magic and not Dragonization at will.

It's a pity that those who knew the other party's little details didn't pay attention, and those who noticed didn't care. Everyone was just curious about how she would make a big boss meal.

Thor directly ignored the seating order of the five people at the table, picked up the first one and sent it to Xiao Lin.

"Xiao Lin~ This is my carefully prepared 'tail meat'. You must try it, but it's a pity it's not mine, otherwise it must be more delicious..."

In fact, Xiao Lin shuddered unconsciously when she heard "tail meat". Fortunately, based on her experience, the plate of meat in front of her was not the "tail meat" she was familiar with, so she stretched out the meat in her hand suspiciously. knife and fork.

Compared with Kobayashi's slightly sluggish reaction, Connor was very direct, he didn't even use a knife, he directly stuck the tail meat with a fork and sent it into his mouth.

"Ah~"

Accompanied by extremely cute sound effects, Connor grabbed one end of the tail meat, then bit it off and chewed it in small bites.

At this moment, even Connor himself didn't notice that he seemed different from usual.

If it was her in the past, then she must have filled her mouth directly, but it was precisely because Lan Meng's previous "education" gave her the hint that "pay attention to table manners and you will be rewarded with delicious food" at this time. Even if Lan Meng is not around, she still unconsciously acts according to Lan Meng's instructions.

With tender meat, rich gravy and special sauce, Connor couldn't help squinting his eyes and showing a happy expression...

Chapter 22 Special Cooking Methods

If Connor was the first to shoot because he didn't care about other people, then Arturia was not much slower than the other party.

Different from the usual heroic way of eating when he came alone, at this time Al perfectly used the knife and fork to divide the meat in front of him and put it into his mouth, but what was different from his elegant posture was that he kept waving it under the skillful movements. knife and fork.

It is obvious that Arturia does not like this way of eating. In her opinion, she prefers to stuff a piece of meat directly into her mouth and chew it to enjoy the gravy blooming between her lips and teeth. delicious.

But it's a pity that the current Artoria can no longer be as casual as before, because now she is not only 'Al', but also the king of Camelot, and she must do this for the majesty of the kingdom.

From a certain point of view, the reason why Artoria was able to win the support of many knights and even nobles during a period of time was precisely because of her character.

Maybe she is still a little immature now, but everyone's eyes are on the future. In their view, Al will eventually lead them and the kingdom to the top again!

But the etiquette is the etiquette, at this time Artoria still did not forget to taste the food in her mouth.

Originally, Al thought that the charred black earth sand dragon shell would affect her appetite, but to her surprise, the debris had already fallen into the lower compartment after being washed by the sauce. As for the barbecue itself Not only does it not have the bitter taste after being burnt, but it has a special flavor.

What just puzzled her was why the smell of various spices was so strong, it looked like the whole piece of earth sand dragon tail thrown directly into the charcoal fire and roasted meat?

How did the other party do it?

There were five judges in the field. Connor instantly turned into a cook, and the head of the group was similar. For him, as long as the food was delicious, he didn't bother to care about the rest, because the "king training" always likes to think about "why" The young Artoria noticed something was wrong, but the only one who really saw through it was the head chef.

When it tasted the first bite, it realized that this seemingly 'primitive' dish actually had a hidden secret.

Whether it requires almost perfect fire control ability to cook all the tail meat of Tushalong without affecting the quality of the meat, or the strong spice flavor.

It unconsciously glanced at the disassembled 'tail meat', and instantly found a blind spot.

That is, after Thor's disintegration, she lost part of the tail meat directly!

From its perspective, it could be seen that the piece of meat was completely different from the meat they ate, and it was obviously burnt.

Is it because the opponent's heat is out of control?

Obviously not!

There is only one answer, that is, that piece of meat should be the only part of the tail meat that is not covered by a carapace.

Combine that with the rich spice notes on top, and it instantly springs to mind a possibility.

Generally speaking, whether it is itself or Lanmeng barbecue, the meat is first marinated with spices, then put on the grill for grilling, and then the grill is constantly rotated to ensure that the meat can evenly contact the flame.

But the other party seems to have adopted another production method.

The opponent transferred the flame that should have been below to the top.

It would be difficult for ordinary people to do such a thing, but it shouldn't be too difficult for the other party.

That's right, it and its partner have noticed the difference between Thor and Connor since the first time they met, especially the strong aura of the two makes them want to move.

But out of trust in Lan Meng, both of them restrained themselves.

As for the specific situation, the two of them will definitely ask Lan Meng to confirm later. The most important thing right now is to decipher each other's cooking methods.

In fact, the answer has come out when I found 'spice applied at the interface of the tail meat' and 'the direction of the flame roasting is different from the normal direction'.

The other party smeared spices on the only joint that was not covered by the carapace, and then used flames to roast the tail from above.

In this way, under the roasting of the flame, the spices will mix with the gravy and melt into the meat from top to bottom, and the mixture of oozing blood and gravy should also be completely emptied from the bottom by the other party as expected. The reason why the Snowball Beast didn't The fact that the not-so-big freezing air can easily blow the carapace apart is probably because there is one or some 'holes' in the carapace.

Finally, the outermost layer is washed with spices and a slightly stronger sauce...

The bold or imaginative way of cooking, coupled with the opponent's almost perfect fire control ability, is the reason for this dish. The special soft and tender taste of the meat is simply unimaginable.

But it's a pity that this cooking method is meaningless to ordinary chefs, because ordinary chefs can't do this kind of thing at all, and chefs who can do it also have other ways to cook ingredients.

From a certain point of view, it is also the way of cooking that belongs exclusively to the other party.

However, if there is any fly in the ointment, it is probably that the spices are too heavy to destroy some of the deliciousness of the Tushalong tail meat itself, but this bold cooking method is undoubtedly a plus point.

"Lanmeng, if your cooking doesn't satisfy me, I won't judge you to win just because you are my disciple. '

That's right, not only will the other party not have any inclination towards Lan Meng because he is his disciple, it can even be said to be stricter, because Lan Meng is its disciple, it may not be able to deduce Lan Meng's "upper limit", but at least It needs to guarantee the 'lower limit' of Blue Dream, which is the duty of a teacher!

While thinking this way, the other party continued to taste the meat in his hand. Obviously, as a chef, even though he already had a score in his heart, he still planned to eat it all. Basic respect for chefs.

And just when everyone almost wiped out Thor's 'True Charcoal Grilled Tail Meat', Lan Meng on the other side finally pushed the dining car back to the restaurant.

After he put the food in front of everyone, everyone lifted the lid to reveal the lineup of Lan Meng's dishes.

When the lid was lifted, there was no strange light, but with the rising mist, a special sweet and sour aroma permeated the air.

The dinner plate chosen by Lan Meng is different from the general dinner plate.

There is a small circle in one corner of the round white porcelain dinner plate, which contains rice, and the outermost one is the 'Red Wine Tomato Stewed Salong Tail Meat' made by Lan Meng.

A large piece of tail meat in the bright orange-red color silently reveals a corner, and a lot of stewed carrots are dotted on the side. The bright color and the sweet and sour smell make people want to whet their appetite...

Chapter 23 Belongs to Connor's 'Special Being'

If it was a formal cooking competition, then there would naturally be some introductions and the like, but after all, it was just a private discussion, and there were two... no, it was considered as the head of the group and three hungry people. Nonsense, start cooking directly.
