Love comes after eating halberds

There was a hint of excitement in the little girl's voice. The grainy texture and crispy aroma of nuts were undoubtedly the finishing touch to this sugar-fired treat. The large and small particles were buried in the layers of pastry, like a very One small treasure after another!

"Sesame paste, brown sugar, white sugar, and layers of dough stacked many times on top. It's a very traditional Chinese snack. It's also eaten as breakfast in some places, but if that's all it is, it's just a regular breakfast."

Hearing the innocent and energetic voice of the little girl, the old scholar who was still in front of Nakiri Erina's stall strolled over and looked at the row of candies placed on the display table with a calm expression.

He had eaten the sugar-fired dish when he was living in the capital of China. It was crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and had a great texture, but it was not easy to make it well.

At least, he had eaten at no less than ten restaurants selling sugar-fired food, but only one of them met his friend's standards and said the taste was authentic, while the others had major or minor flaws.

For example, if the brown sugar particles are too large, the dough may not rise completely, or if the frying temperature is too high, the sugar will become mushy and taste bitter. There are also some places where soy sauce is not applied to the sugar.

That will make the sugar lose its sweetness and umami when burned, and the color will not look good.

In short, there are various problems, and it is difficult to have an authentic bite.

Look at the roasted sugar on the plate in front of you. It is golden and slightly brown in color, crispy on the outside, and exudes a rich aroma of brown sugar. If you move your nose a little, you can smell the sweet smell in the air.

"Thousand-layer crispy, with distinct layers. It didn't break even after adding so many nuts. It must have taken a lot of effort."

Because making sugar-fired cakes requires constant lamination and layering, few people dare to add hard objects such as nuts to it, because this will destroy the layers of sugar-fired cakes.

But in the sugar-fired version in front of me, the nuts inside not only did not destroy the layers, but actually played a role in increasing the texture and taste.

“As long as you make the dough a little harder and add a certain degree of toughness, you can ensure that adding nuts does not destroy the original structure.

Of course, the nuts need to be chopped and roasted with a knife in advance and sifted twice. "

The first pass is to sift out large chopped nuts, and the second pass is to remove small chopped nuts to ensure that the size of the chopped nuts is similar, so that truly high-quality dishes can be made.

"It smells so good! I can't stand it anymore."

"There is actually such a way to make it. The brown sugar tastes so delicious."

"Give me one."

"Don't crowd the people behind me, I want one too!"

Seeing the happy look on the face of the forerunner, the surrounding customers couldn't stand for a moment, and they all stepped forward to pick up the sugar on the display table and burn it. The atmosphere was also heated up at this moment, with Nakiri Erina and Nakiri Alice. The two sides formed a tripartite posture.

That's right, it's a three-legged stance.

At some point, Alice Nakiri's side was also filled with customers, and a long queue formed in front of the cooking table. Everyone's face was filled with happiness and expressions of disbelief.

Seeing this scene, Hoshino Sora's originally worried heart was finally relieved. He looked down upon Alice. No matter how she was, she was praised by Yueyue as the woman closest to the top ten among the top ten.

How could he not even pass such a small test! ?

He was stretching the dough hard in his hands, and the dough collided fiercely with the cooking table, making a sound. The sugar fire in the oven was undergoing transformation, and the pan on the side was also full of sugar fire.

Pick off the prepared dough pieces one by one and throw them onto the chopping board. Press and shape them, then brush them with soy sauce to increase the color and flavor. Then pick up the fried sugar in the pan and put them into the baking pan.

The middle shelf of the oven is 200 degrees for 15 minutes. After completing these steps, you can let the last batch of sugar in the oven come out of the oven. Pick them up with chopsticks and put them one by one on the plate and put them on the cooking table.

When the firepower is fully turned on, Hoshino Sora can make 20 sugar fires in 80 minutes. There are four ovens, 20 in each oven. Taking into account the time loss in the middle, this number is already his limit.

"call..."

Breathing out a sigh of relief, Hoshino Kong looked relaxed, and his unlimited physical strength buff was perfectly displayed at this moment. He did not show any signs of fatigue even after intense work.

Turning to look at Erina Nakiri aside, there was already some sweat on the other person's forehead, and her hair was hanging loosely under the influence of sweat.

Obviously, the tedious cooking steps make Erina Nakiri very tired. With 8 ovens activated at the same time, just walking back and forth is enough to make her back sweat.

Not to mention the handling of ingredients, the placement of dishes, and various events that consume a lot of physical energy.

Compared to Nakiri Erina, Nakiri Alice on the other side seemed very relaxed.

Relying on the high-tech machine, she stood in front of the cooking table and chatted with the diners the whole time. The only time she needed to expend physical energy was to take the dishes out of the machine and put them on the display table for people to choose from.

Seeing Hoshino's gaze from the sky, Nakiri Alice seemed to notice something, and immediately smiled and waved gently, but she couldn't leave for a while because she was too busy.

It is worth mentioning that the booth of three people accounted for 30% of the total traffic of the entire venue, which can be said to be a booming business, especially at Nakiri Erina's side, the queue was very long.

To be honest, Hoshino Sora was somewhat flattered because Erina Nakiri was not very efficient, which resulted in her queue being very long. The more people waiting, the more impatient people, who would turn to him while waiting in line. stall.

The first is because it is close, the second is because Hoshino Sora is also very popular, and the third is because it is very efficient and everyone who has tried it has given good reviews.

The same situation exists at Nakiri Alice's stall, but although she is very relaxed, her cooking efficiency is not high. After all, there is only one machine and can only produce about thirty servings in 10 minutes.

"The cooking speed is really terrifying. Watching his cooking is like appreciating art."

"Isn't it? There is no delay in this student's movements. He is very neat. Watching him work is really stress-relieving. I have been watching it for more than ten minutes."

"6."

As the operation time increased, Hoshino Sora's proficiency in the cooking process reached a new level. His hands were so fast that there seemed to be afterimages of the paint. This was undoubtedly a wonderful cooking performance to outsiders.

"Although it is just a small sugar fire, to achieve such efficiency without any change in quality, the skill of the hands is evident."

In the monitoring room, looking at Hoshino Sora, who was skilled in techniques and had amazing sales in Area C, Dojima Gin gave such an evaluation. This technique of kneading and stretching noodles would be impossible to achieve in just a few years.

However, Hoshino Sora only practiced for one night.

In fact, even Hoshino Sora didn't realize that even if the system was thrown away, his talent was very high. Even in Totsuki Academy, he was considered a genius.

"A little faster, a little more accurate..."

As time went by, the accuracy and efficiency of Hoshino Sorasu's fire reached its limit, which caused many diners who were originally planning to go to Nakiri Erina's side to go to him.

"Hoshino Sora, 200 copies achieved."

At five and ten minutes, this news was broadcast on the radio, which made Erina Nakiri raise her head while working, with strong unwillingness in her eyes.

This guy's speed is really too fast. Although it is not because the cooking is more popular, but because it is more efficient, if you lose, you lose. There is nothing to say.

She has only sold 181 dishes so far. Although the difference between them is very small, she can be said to be very tired now and it is a little difficult to lift her arms.

If she continues at this rate, she will have completed a maximum of 380 dishes in two hours...

Sorry!

Turning around and looking at Sora Hoshino, who was relieved after hearing the broadcast, and looking at ease, Erina Nakiri was puzzled. Isn't this guy tired at all?Is it a robot?

"Thank you for your patronage."

He didn't stop what he was doing and still served the meal efficiently. Passing the assessment was just incidental. Hoshino Sora's real purpose was to complete the task.

But for now, it is certain that he will complete the task. After all, neither Erina nor Alice is as efficient as him.

However...

Two minutes later, a sudden change occurred and the radio sounded again.

"Yumeko Snake Ghoul, 200 copies achieved."

This time, Hoshino Sora was not the only one who was shocked. Nakiri Erina also opened her eyes wide. She was not unfamiliar with the name on the radio. After all, she had recruited him.

But because the other person has not been active since he entered school, she almost forgot about this person. If it weren't for today's broadcast...

Yumeko Snake is a transfer student from the same batch as Sora Hoshino. Now both Soma Yukihira and Sora Hoshino are active. There is no reason for the other party to be silent, but I didn't expect that the other party would actually emerge here.

"Yumeko Snake Ghoul is a transfer student. She has been extremely active in the residential training and has shown a high level of cooking."

"That's right, this guy makes honey waffles, which are very popular among children. Adults usually take one to taste when they are with the children."

Looking at the excited Yumeko Snake Gho on the screen, Dojima Gin looked at the information in his hand with a calm voice. Behind him stood the sous chef of Totsuki Resort, who was also holding his chin and looking at the screen.

"Nakiri Alice, Nakiri Erina, completed two hundred dishes."

Another 10 minutes passed, and Erina and Alice finished two hundred dishes at the same time. At this time, Hoshino Sora's speed had reached the limit, and his entire movements were left with afterimages.

This also caused a lot of people to gather in front of Hoshino Sora's stall. There were mostly men here. They didn't say much. They just stood not far away and watched silently with their hands behind their backs. They also held sugar in their hands to burn, and took a bite from time to time. But he didn't look away.

Knead the dough, stretch it, paint it, roll it, continue to stretch the dough, fold it in three, roll it out, continue to roll it into a long strip, put it aside and cover it with plastic wrap for 20 minutes to relieve the tension, take a piece of good dough, and roll it into a long strip. Take the ingredients from the strips, press them into shape, brush them with soy sauce and fry the side without soy sauce in a pan. After a little color, put it in the oven, take the sugar from the previous round and burn it on the display stand. This is the round.

Yumeko Snake's hyperactive performance made him feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.

Chapter 12 Small banquet, punishment game in the room

"So quickly, the crowds continued to gather. The first guests gathered formed a wave, making more people curious about what was going on here. When they came back to their senses, they were already surrounded by people."

Looking at the crowd gathered around Hoshino Sora, the sous chef of Totsuki Resort behind the surveillance camera opened his eyes wide and his words were full of excitement. The picture in front of him was really exciting!

"There is a word called "livecooking". It is different from the usual cuisine where the cooked food is served to the table. The chef cooks it directly in front of the guests, so that people can expect more from the taste, and the "ingredients" become "cooking" ” and at the same time encourage yourself. "

"But why is this guy so excited all of a sudden? He has obviously completed the training of 200 dishes, but he is working harder than before."

Looking at Hoshino Sora who was cooking at super high speed, Dojima Gin pinched his chin with a puzzled expression. He didn't understand why the other party worked harder after completing two hundred dishes.

Logically speaking, shouldn’t we relax at the right time?

But this guy's physical strength is really terrifying. After cooking at high intensity for such a long time, he doesn't feel tired at all, and he still looks energetic.

"Hmph, are you competing with me? Hoshino-kun."

Looking at Hoshino Sora who was frantically soliciting customers not far away, Snake Gho Yumeko put her hand to her mouth and gently licked her fingers, which still had the sweet taste of honey.

Lowering her body, as if she suddenly entered a certain mode, Yumeko Snake Ghoul strolled to the sink, cleaned her hands and returned to the kitchen counter.

After taking a deep breath, he started cooking at 1.3 times the previous speed without leaving any time for himself to rest.

Gradually, a group of people gathered in front of her cooking table.

This group of people is a women's alliance headed by a little girl.

The strength of the guests on both sides can be said to be evenly matched. What they are competing for now is the speed of serving food. Hoshino Sora obviously noticed that Yumeko Snake Ghoul has sped up his movements, but he was not affected and continued to cook in an orderly manner.

With the help of reasonable optimization process and extreme hand speed, his efficiency increased by 25%, and the number of ovens operating behind him also increased from four to five.

"Hoshino-kun, why are you working so hard?"

Looking at Sora Hoshino who was working extremely hard at the cooking table next door, Alice Nakiri's expression was slightly confused. She didn't understand why the other party worked so hard. Wouldn't it be enough to just pass this assessment?

Is there a hidden reward for being first?

"Ah, it's such a pity that the ingredients prepared in advance have been used up, because I didn't expect it to be so popular, so I can only stop here today."

"Very well, you can leave now."

Looking at the sold-out white jade Shiki in front of her and the guests waiting in front of her cooking table, Nakiri Alice shrugged and spoke apologetically.

Next to me, Guan Shouping, the senior who was in charge of the review, said this with the squinting eyes as he held the review form.

"Ah, thank you~"

"Isn't there another one?"

"This has been booked in advance, sorry."

After picking up the last Shiki Shiki, she looked up at the countdown clock hanging on the wall. Alice Nakiri left the cooking table with a groan and walked in the direction of Hoshino Sora, but she was not in a hurry to interrupt. He stood outside and waited silently.

At this time, it was less than 10 minutes before the end of the assessment, and Yumeko Snake had reached her limit. The sweat on her body had soaked her chef uniform, and her hair was stuck to her forehead and she had no time to take care of it.

"Sorry, I can't do it anymore. That's it for today."

Looking at her slightly trembling hands, Yumeko Snake Ghoul spoke apologetically to the customers waiting in front of her, bowing deeply as she spoke. She had really reached her limit. The violent cooking just now made her Serious loss of energy and physical strength.

Looking at Hoshino Sora, the opponent was like a god of war at this time. Not only did his speed not slow down at all, but it was slightly faster. He didn't put down the dough in his hand until the last moment of the countdown.

Complete the mission: The sugar-fired prince appears

Task requirements: Use the sugar-fired snack to achieve the highest sales in the audience, and the total number of sales is no less than 400.

Mission reward: 1500 reputation points

Current reputation: 6300

He raised his hands to move his muscles, and his body suddenly made a sound like exploding beans. Looking at the virtual panel floating in the air, Hoshino Sora's face was filled with relief.

It's almost time. After accumulating 3700 more reputations, he can exchange it for the Heart of Cooking, which sounds very powerful.

By then, he will only need to taste everyone's food to grow. Just thinking about it makes people feel extremely excited!

Looking at the fluorescent Kitchen Heart in the Prestige Mall, Hoshino Sora's eyes were filled with anticipation, and then he silently turned it off because he saw Alice Nakiri walking towards him not far away.

"Congratulations, you have completed 501 breakfast dishes. Even if you look at Yuanyue's history, you are probably the only one. Then, this is the promised White Jade Four Seasons, hurry up and try it."

Taking a piece of candy and chewing it, Alice Nakiri handed the white jade Shiki she intended to keep to Hoshino Sora, and then took a half step back, with an expression on her face that she was waiting for praise.

"okay."

Seeing the extremely proactive Alice Nakiri, Hoshino Sora was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement and took over the food. He lowered his head and saw four meatballs lying in the translucent white soup.

"this is..."

"Spring bamboo shoots, tomatoes, stock and fish balls, poke the red and yellow balls and stir them before eating, so you can appreciate the mellow taste of the soup base."
