My daily life of cooking food in Tokyo

Chapter 202 He must be planning to plagiarize
Liu Minghui looked back at Nishitani Yudai.

Secretly, you just wait to kneel down and sing Conquer!

Heart is worse than action.

A total of three hours of game time, has been delayed by an hour.
There is not much time left to make new dishes by myself.

To make a new dish, it is natural to prepare the ingredients again.

Thinking of this, Liu Minghui walked towards the food supply area without hesitation.

Liu Minghui's weird behavior was naturally noticed by the audience.

After all, everyone is cooking in a hurry now.

In other words, Liu Minghui rushed to the food supply area again like a boat sailing against the current.

This behavior is unique among all the contestants.

Hika Yuta was also extremely shocked.

He who has been paying attention to Liu Minghui, an idol enemy, naturally discovered something wrong at the first time.

Surprised, he said, "Could it be that he decided to cook something at this time?"

"The materials I searched for before are nothing more than blindfolds."

"I just said how could he be so playful with the game."

"How can you make delicious fried dishes with just glutinous rice?"

Kameyama Rikito was also puzzled, and asked curiously:
"So why does he need glutinous rice as a cover-up?"

"Isn't it okay to wait until you have decided on the dishes you want to make, and then go get the ingredients?"

"Although the ingredients are provided for free."

"But like him, such a waste of food is a bit too branchless."

Hikayuta suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly realized: "Wait, I thought of a possibility."

"Or he doesn't even know what kind of staple fried food to make."

"So the reason why we need to prepare a cover-up is very simple, just to plagiarize!"

"Combined with the fact that he was looking at other players' behavior from the beginning."

"And temporarily replace the ingredients needed for cooking."

“It’s absolutely solid!”

Kameyama Rito said in surprise: "Plagiarism?"

"How could it be plagiarism?"

"Which of the contestants who can get here is mediocre?"

Although he didn't like Liu Minghui because of Nishitani Yuta.

But reason told him that plagiarism in an event of this level was basically impossible.

Hika Yuta also felt that what Kameyama Rikito said was reasonable, he hesitated and said, "Then wait."

"When the dish he wants to make comes out, it will be obvious whether it is plagiarism or not."

When Goro Takahara saw Liu Minghui's behavior, he didn't think much about it.

After all, there is still enough time, and it is not unacceptable to temporarily change the competition dishes.

Only Moriyama Joichi realized the seriousness of the matter.

Judging from Liu Minghui's excited expression, he was preparing for a big job!
Chicken good fried chicken shop.

Liu Minghui finally appeared in the camera.

Indoor Photon was extremely happy, and even quietly cheered Liu Minghui on.

While Liu Minghui was not on the scene, she also searched for information about the competition on the Internet.

Photon indoors was a little shocked.

It turns out that the Sakura Country Fried Food Competition is such a famous competition.

Think of Liu Minghui's terrifying strength.

Indoor Photon felt that it was natural for Liu Minghui to participate in such a competition.

As expected of Boss Liu, he is so outstanding!

But before Photon indoors could take a second look, a customer came to the store.

resignedly.

She can only reluctantly give up the TV and return to work.

food supply area.

Liu Minghui looked at the dazzling ingredients and decisively chose flour as the main ingredient.

Then I thought about it and chose some high-quality steaks.

Steaks with beautiful patterns are displayed in the fresh freezer.

The quality is very good and meets Liu Minghui's requirements.

He chose the beef shoulder.

Because it is fat and thin, the proportion is just right.

It is a very suitable beef for making stuffing.

Finally, choose some vermicelli and eggs.

The ingredients that need to be prepared for this cooking are completely complete.

As for seasonings and cooking utensils?

These things are all on the kitchen counter, so there is no need for Liu Minghui to buy them separately.

Looking at the ingredients in Liu Minghui's hands, Hikaxiong exclaimed, "Look, isn't this plagiarism?"

"Flour and meat?"

"Could he also plan to make a fried dumpling dish?"

"Forget about plagiarism, but it's also plagiarized on Mr. Nishitani's head. It's simply lawless."

"No, I'm going to report him!"

Kameyama Rito shook his head and said, "It should be plagiarism."

"But we still need to wait."

"After all, judging from the evidence in front of us, there are still some problems in trying to plagiarize."

"Wait until he makes the dishes and sends them to the judges for scoring."

"This is a good opportunity for us to launch a fatal blow to him."

"Mr. Nishitani is really high-spirited, and he directly disclosed his unique secret recipe."

“I don’t think anyone will plagiarize.”

"It's a pity that such disgusting things still happen, and they happen in public."

"It's simply lawless, and it must not be tolerated!"

That is to say, Liu Minghui didn't hear their counterpart, otherwise he would definitely scoff.

Plagiarism?

I, Liu Minghui, need to plagiarize?
Even if I plagiarized, I would not plagiarize the rubbish of Yudai Nishitani.

Don’t you think about whether he is worthy?
After the ingredients were prepared, Liu Minghui began to prepare the dishes.

Start by pre-cooking the steak.

Whole steaks don't need to be cut.

Sprinkle a little salt and black pepper directly and mix well with your hands.

Let the taste of the seasoning fully penetrate into the taste.

Then pour in the white radish juice twice to catch evenly.

The purpose of using white radish juice is because there is natural papain in radish.

Papain can make the meat soft and tender.

The first small amount is used to remove the peculiar smell in the beef.

The second function is to make the meat of the beef more tender.

While waiting for the beef to marinate, prepare for kneading.

First, pour the flour on the chopping board to make a nest, and put in some baking soda and sugar.

Then add the appropriate amount of yeast water in small amounts.

The flour is first stirred into snowflakes, which will later become the dough.

Put lard in when it becomes a rough dough.

Then switch to kneading the dough alternately with both hands until the surface is smooth.

Lard is added to better emulsify and shorten the dough.

At the same time, it also prevents the final product from cracking due to excessive expansion.

The overall taste will also be better.

The next step is to wait for the yeast to ferment.

Put the kneaded dough into a suitable sized container.

Cover with plastic wrap and let it ferment until it doubles in size.

Due to limited time, Liu Minghui had to adopt the method of accelerating fermentation.

Take a clean container and add appropriate amount of warm water.

Then put the container containing the dough into it for fermentation.

This can provide the best fermentation temperature for the yeast in the dough, greatly accelerating the speed of fermentation.

While preparing the dough for fermentation, start soaking the vermicelli.

Fans' foam hair is also particular.

How to soak vermicelli to the best taste also requires certain skills.

Fans are generally soaked in warm water of about [-] degrees.

Add appropriate amount of water to boil in the pot, and add vermicelli.

Heat the vermicelli until it becomes slightly soft and transparent, then turn off the heat immediately.

Then pour the vermicelli into a large container with hot water.

Add some appropriate amount of cool white boiled, let the hot water become warm water, and make the vermicelli soak in the warm water.

Soak until the vermicelli has no hard core.

Soaking the vermicelli directly in cold water takes a long time, 1-2 hours.

Soak the vermicelli in hot water, the vermicelli is easy to soak and stick together, and it is also easy to soak and break, and the taste is not good.

Boil the vermicelli until soft, then soak in warm water.

In this way, the soaking time of vermicelli is short, and the taste is good, smooth and not hard.

This is a tip for soaking hair fans.

While waiting for the vermicelli and dough to mature, Liu Minghui started making the fillings.

Unlike traditional pork fillings, using beef fillings requires more attention.

The beef shoulder meat is tender and delicious, but a little lacking in juice.

In order to ensure a fresh and juicy taste, it needs to be matched with vermicelli.

Used to lock in the juices in the beef.

The vermicelli absorbs the essence of the beef and reaches a state where there is me in you and you are in me.

This perfectly blended ground beef.

One bite, there will be a burst of juice.

Thinking of the feeling of the rich soup bursting out in his mouth, Liu Minghui couldn't help drooling.

The beef was not minced into mincemeat.

Liu Minghui chose another cooking method.

Because when the beef is chopped into minced meat.

No matter how careful you are, it is difficult to avoid the loss of juice.

So Liu Minghui decided to use the charcoal grilling method.

At the same time, it can also add a unique charcoal-grilled fragrance to the beef, which tastes full of flavor.

Moved out a small charcoal stove, separated by barbed wire.

Liu Minghui began to grill the marinated beef carefully.

Beef shoulder meat is of very high quality.

Just a little heating with charcoal fire, the fat is about to be stimulated.

The gravy began to gather, as if it would explode in the next moment.

A pleasant aroma of charcoal-grilled beef gradually filled the air.

Under Liu Minghui's precise control.

The deliciousness of a whole cut of beef is just one step away from being inspired.

But it can only remain in this state and cannot go any further.

Finally, it is grilled to the most tender and medium-rare state.

Look at the full appearance of the beef, you only need to squeeze it a little to squeeze out the rich juice.

The mesh of the grill net imprints a nice grid-like pattern on the beef.

It looks very attractive.

This level of beef, even if eaten directly, is rare and delicious.

It doesn't even need any seasoning.

The freshness and tenderness of the ingredients alone is an absolute taste bud enjoyment.

The beef does not need to be fully cooked as it still needs to be fried.

Being in this state is the best.

Otherwise, it will be overripe and the meat will become old and difficult to chew.

Liu Minghui's action of grilling meat in front of the public naturally attracted everyone's attention.

no way.

The aroma of charcoal-grilled beef is too tempting.

It even masks the aroma of most fried foods.

Many contestants cast strange looks at Liu Minghui.

Are you here for a race, or for a barbecue?

Only some food chefs with outstanding vision can see some clues from the perfectly roasted beef on Liu Minghui's oven.

This should be the beef used as the stuffing.

Judging from the degree to which the beef is charcoal grilled, the level of the person who cooks it should be very high.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to charcoal-grill the beef to such a perfect level.

As long as there is a little bit of wrong heat, it is impossible for the beef to be charcoal grilled to such a perfect level.

This is a formidable enemy!
The eyes of everyone looking at Liu Minghui changed one after another.

I originally thought that this young man was just a bastard who came to gain experience.

But did not expect.

He is actually the hidden boss.

Of course, being able to see this requires a certain level of skill in charcoal grilling.

The number of people is naturally very few.

Most people still thought that Liu Minghui was just doing his job, and didn't take him to heart at all.

Mrs. Hikao was very glad that she was not reckless.

In order to catch Liu Minghui's plagiarized pigtail, he stared at Liu Minghui's movements.

But I found that he actually started making friends and gaining fans.

Coupled with the operation of charcoal-grilled beef, it is possible that he simply did not eat breakfast.

Ready to collect a wave of wool from the competition and make a luxurious breakfast for yourself?
Liu Minghui's operation does not look like making dumplings.

If only he had just lost his report in a rash manner.

In the end, they will only be accused of making random reports and disrupting the game.

Hikayuta asked a little strangely: "Kameyama, do you know what he is doing?"

"It's really hard for me to understand what kind of cooking needs to use these ingredients."

Kameyama Lito said in a daze, "I have no idea either."

"Let's take another look, maybe we can see something."

"Or it's just a cover-up, and he still wants to copy."

"It's just a more clever plagiarism method."

After charcoal grilling for a long time, a piece of tender beef shoulder is freshly baked.

Liu Minghui can also start preparing for the next steps.

Place the char-grilled beef on the chopping board.

Under the surprised eyes of everyone, Liu Minghui picked up the kitchen knife and began to cut quickly.

this behavior.

It's just a waste of money!

The meat juice that is finally preserved will be lost to a large extent when cut with a kitchen knife.

It seems that he is just an ordinary cook with some ability in charcoal grilling.

I want to add it through charcoal grilling to take this fried staple food to another level.

Unfortunately, the first step was a big mistake.

After seeing Liu Minghui pick up the kitchen knife, they withdrew their gaze.

Liu Minghui, whom they considered a great enemy just now, did not need to pay attention at all.

It is difficult for people who make such novice mistakes to have a high level of cooking.

Will it lose the gravy?
How can it be?

If they think this way, they underestimate themselves a little too much.

How could Liu Minghui do such unnecessary things?

With the swing of the kitchen knife.

Following the grain, the beef is cut into finely minced pieces.

The most amazing thing is that there is basically no loss of gravy from the beef.

Still kept in the most complete condition.

This kind of sword skill.

If it was seen by those who sneered at Liu Minghui, they would definitely be surprised.

This is far from the knife skills they can imagine.

Liu Minghui has perfect control over every detail of cooking.

When the beef is cut, the vermicelli is about to be soaked.

Then simply prepare a sauce and brush it evenly on the surface of the beef cubes.

Next, comes the most critical step, which is making the buns.

Roll the dough into a long strip and cut into equal-sized balls.

Then knead the mixture into small dough.

Then use your fingers to create a nest in the dough.

Cut the vermicelli into small pieces of appropriate length and wrap them evenly on the beef.

The stuffing of the buns is formed.

Then wrap the stuffing into the buns and seal.

Since the fried buns are made, they need to be completely sealed.

There is no need to pinch the closure to create nice creases.

Soon, a smooth and round bun appeared in Liu Minghui's hands.

If I hadn't known that there were fillings in it, I would have thought it was a steamed bun.
-
When Liu Minghui was preparing to make fried buns, other contestants were not idle.

Although there are three hours of normal competition.

But not everyone takes that long.

For example, it's Matsui Yoshiji from Kitchen Counter No. [-].

Although he was stabbed in the back by Yuda Nishiya, he was in a good state of mind and quickly adjusted himself.

Instead, it came from behind.

He was the first to serve a seemingly simple Japanese spring roll to the judges’ table.

The golden spring rolls, paired with carefully prepared sauces, look quite tempting.

It's just that spring rolls seem simple, but it's actually very difficult to make them well.

It was Masato Naoshima who saw the familiar spring rolls.

As if thinking of something, he looked in Liu Minghui's direction.

But he found that Liu Minghui was still busy and didn't mean to stop at all.

what a pity.

Mr Liu doesn't seem to be planning on making spring rolls.

Otherwise, you can have a taste of his craftsmanship yourself.

Let’s see what magical changes a simple dish like spring rolls can produce in Mr. Liu’s hands.

After Shangdao Xiansheng closed its doors yesterday.

Naoshima Masato immediately went to Naoshima Masahiro and Yamada Tadahiro to find out what happened.

Of course, it is inevitable to mention the spring rolls made by Liu Minghui.

Incomparably wonderful taste!
The adjectives for the two of them summed it up in this sentence.

I actually missed such a dish?
Najima Masato regretted it endlessly.

There are clearly three pieces of spring rolls.

Why is it that one of the two is his personal apprentice and the other is his elder brother.

No one thought of me?

So love goes away, doesn't it?
Take back your thoughts.

Now is not the time to desert.

Najima Masato carefully looked at the spring rolls in front of him.

Just from the appearance point of view, it is perfect and impeccable.

Specifically, you still need to try it.

Grab a piece of spring roll and place it in your own bowl.

Slightly dipped in the sauce, Naojima Masato put the spring roll in his mouth.

no doubt.

The first thing you notice is the crispy spring roll skin.

It's just that apart from the crispy outermost layer, the spring roll skin in the middle is actually very soft and waxy.

Because it is not enough to fry the whole spring roll skin to make it crispy.

Matsui Kiji took a different approach.

Make the most of the unique soft and glutinous taste of the filling soup.

This soft and glutinous taste is undoubtedly the addition of some glutinous rice flour.

The spring roll skin mixed with glutinous rice flour can better block the sunken soup.

It would be very nice to put it here.

Eat this special spring roll in one bite.

The first thing you feel is crispy, then soft and glutinous, and finally crispy vegetables.

That's right, Matsui Kiji actually used pure vegetable fillings.

It tastes crunchy and juicy.

The texture and taste are quite good.

There is also a faint scent of oil.

It should be mixed with lard to make the pure vegetable filling taste more fragrant.

In order to avoid vegetables from getting old due to high temperature.

This spring roll can only be fried until it is crispy on the outside.

Any longer and the vegetables will lose their optimal taste due to over-ripening.

Add a little sauce to taste.

All kinds of flavors are mixed in the mouth, forming a taste of every second.

This spring roll is undoubtedly very delicious.

All the judges were stunned.

This dish is undoubtedly very good.

No wonder he dared to be the first to serve it to the judges for evaluation.

Yamanaka Tsunayoshi, the main judge sitting in the middle, praised: "It's really an excellent dish."

"Not only the creativity but also the level of cooking are excellent."

Saying that, Tsunayoshi Yamanaka took out a table knife and cut open a piece of spring roll.

The camera also gave a shot of the spring roll slice at the right time.

Let the audience see clearly the stuffing.

Yamanaka Tsunayoshi continued: "Although it is a vegetarian spring roll, the taste is not inferior to the meat spring roll."

"Among them, the perfect combination of vegetables is the most important key point."

"Crisp diced lotus root, tender and juicy cabbage, fiber-rich celery, and sweet carrot."

"Coupled with soft eggplant and seasoned with a moderate amount of lard, the overall texture and taste are very good."

"Eggplant is the finishing touch."

"Eggplant has a soft texture and good water absorption, which is the key to locking in the juice."

"Stimulated by the high temperature, the moisture in the vegetables begins to detach."

"But it was completely absorbed by the eggplant, without any waste, and it was perfectly integrated."

"Combined with the spring roll skin that is crispy on the outside and waxy on the inside, it tastes very rich."

"It's a rare delicacy."

"The most valuable thing is that this is just the first dish."

"I really look forward to the performance of the next players."

After a brief review, Matsui Chiji's results came out.

9.45 points!
It seems not high, but it is mainly because this vegetarian spring roll is the first dish.

As the first few courses of a game, it is impossible to score too high or too low.

If you set it too high, it will be difficult to notice the difference when encountering better works.

They usually serve a positioning purpose.

Locates a match median.

For the following dishes, the jury will score the standards of the previous three dishes.

It is worth mentioning that the vegetarian spring rolls, which were widely praised by the judges, were not impressive in the audience's ratings.

Isn’t it just a vegetarian spring roll?

I'll do it too, what an embarrassment!
The audience score of more than eight points is destined to be discarded.

The other judges fully demonstrated their professionalism, and their scores were very close.

It was finally set at 9.45 minutes.

Kisame Matsui stepped down from the stage.

The other contestants cursed secretly.

The first dish was so good that it lifted the judges' expectations.

This is tantamount to laying a trap for future generations.

If the next meal is not good, you will definitely get an ugly score.

They are not the spectators who watch the excitement.

Judging from the unanimous praise of the judges, this dish is absolutely excellent.

Maybe even make it to the finals.

Then who will be the second to put his work up becomes a very difficult choice.

Wait a moment.

The cook at the NO.13 kitchen table brought up his creations.

No way, no way.

There is a best time to enjoy cooking.

If this time is missed, the taste of even the best dishes will change slightly.

It doesn't taste that good anymore.
