The beginning is only when you become a chef

Chapter 54 The Sharp Knife of Truth
Saiba Joichiro put down his fork, looked at the silent Erina Nakiri, and said with a hint of sympathy:

"Your dishes are very good, and they are at the level of this year's top ten talents. In our era, you would also be considered the top Totsuki talent."

Finish this sentence.

Saiba Joichiro suddenly changed direction:
“You’ve cooked the shrimp ravioli very skillfully, first by boiling the shrimp with ginger and scallions, then shelling them, then filling them with chopped celery and shrimp, and adding salt, black pepper and lemon zest.”

"Then there's olive oil, which is essential for Western cuisine, and small pieces of cheese that are the finishing touch!"

“This is a very typical shrimp salad recipe!”

As expected, he is called "Shura", the wandering chef.

Having traveled to many countries, he has extensive experience as a chef and gourmet.

Although he didn't see how Erina Nakiri made the shrimp ravioli up close, he could hear Erina Nakiri's method and details as if she had installed a surveillance camera.

Alice blinked her eyes. "Senior Saibo has said everything I wanted to say. I have nothing to add."

Including Xia An.

Everyone's eyes twitched slightly.

Are there any judges like you who are lazy? I'm afraid you are just here to get free food and drinks.

“After examination, it was found that I couldn’t make it to a level that I could not!

Hojo Midori was very straightforward and pointed out the difference directly.

Then, she saw that Erina Nakiri looked a little dazed, and suddenly thought of the late-night food battle some time ago. Wasn't she also taught a lesson by her master?

So Midori recalled the lines that the judges Tong Kun, Liu Hong and Liang Guiqin said when they evaluated her dishes, which left a deep impression on her.

Xinyouqi came over and said, "Among the students of Totsuki, your dishes might be considered top-notch talents."

"But if you put it among the group of famous chefs in society, especially compared with Master's flame dumplings, it would be a dimensionality reduction attack."

Xia An: ? ?

This line sounds familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere similar.

Hear the words.

Erina Nakiri's body trembled visibly.

Such straightforward comments were something she had never heard from childhood, even in the atmosphere of neon, which was filled with compliments and politeness towards her as a young lady.

["Flame Dumplings" (60% completion) is cooked. This is a classic dish from the TV series and is not included in the star rating.]

[The goal of food battle mode has been completed, and a large amount of experience points (2 exp) have been obtained]

[Shokugeki Rival (Erina Nakiri) dropped a talent fragment, the panel has automatically picked it up! ]

Light shot out from the dazed Erina Nakiri.

[Talent: Drugging (1/3)]

[Grade: Rare (Purple)]

[Explanation: Cooking requires drugs! Clothes bursting! ]

[The talent shared by all the famous characters in Food Wars: Shokugeki no Soma. Erina Nakiri's drugging talent is purple. After collecting 3 talent fragments, the host can activate this talent. ]

Ah, the girl exploded with gold coins?
After Xia An checked, he saw traces of twitching at the corners of his mouth.

He has a headache.

The blue drugging talent dropped by Hojo Miyoko, the collection progress is 2/3.

The golden drugging talent dropped by Mrs. Nakiri Managi is 1/3 advanced.

Now, it is the purple talent fragment of Erina Nakiri, the little god's tongue!

Just when Xia An was complaining about why [medication] was so fragmented.

Sudden.

In terms of vision.

Another piece of debris shot towards him.

[Miyoko Hojo (apprentice) dropped a talent fragment, which has been automatically picked up on the panel! ]

It turned out that Hojo Midori accidentally exploded the gold coins again.

Xia An quickly checked the character details on the panel.

See the talent column.

A new talent [Drugging] was finally unlocked and lit up. Even though it only flashed blue light, it was at least the golden finger of the TV series that Xia An had coveted for a long time. "Dad, this dish is not as delicious as yours!"

Xiaoxi had finished eating the flaming dumplings at some point and was squeezed next to her sister Midori. She opened her mouth and swallowed a shrimp ravioli that Midori had picked for her, then said with a wrinkled face.

click!
Everyone seemed to be able to hear the sound of heartbreak.

Sometimes, the innocent words of a child are like a sharp knife of truth.

Xia An felt that this finishing blow was a bit harsh, so he picked up Xiao Xi, pinched her cheek, and joked:

“Do you know what tastes good and what doesn’t?”

Xiaoxi answered very seriously:

"I know. There are things in dad's dishes that this little sister can't make."

"I like the stuff in dad's dishes. It makes Xixi's tongue feel comfortable and warm!"

Xia An suddenly thought of his daughter Xiaoxi's confirmed [super vision] and suspected [super taste].

His eyes flickered slightly, and he asked tentatively:
"Then Xiaoxi, tell me in detail, apart from that kind of thing, what are the differences or gaps between this young lady's dishes and dad's flame dumplings?"

Xiaoxi thought seriously for a while before gesturing and saying:
"Dad's seasoning and heat are amazing. How can it last this long—"

The little girl stretched out her hands and gestured.

"Then, the seasoning and heat, young lady, is like this."

Xiaoxi described it this way, putting two fingers together.

Seeing this, everyone in front of the bar twitched their faces.

can't read.

Forget it.

Anyway, we know that Xia An's cooking skills are very impressive in his daughter's eyes.

"Dad!" Xiaoxi opened her big clear eyes and said pitifully, "I'm not full yet, I want to eat more!"

Xia An thought for a moment, glanced at the distraught Erina Nakiri beside him, and suddenly said:
"Then Dad, I'll make you the Shrimp and Cheese Ravioli made by this little sister?"

Xiaoxi said happily: "Yes, yes, if it is made by Dad, it must be very delicious."

Xia An put his daughter down, walked into the kitchen, and stood next to Erina Nakiri.

"Oh wow, you still can't figure it out?"

A call woke up the dazed golden-haired girl.

Seeing that she was still biting her lower lip stubbornly and looking straight at me.

Xia Anle said: "It's good that you didn't get defeated. What I said to Miyoko-chan before can now be used by you intactly."

"Don't be afraid of losing. The important thing is to learn something and make progress after every failure in food battle!"

After saying that, Xia An turned her back and tied her apron again.

I saw him taking the flour, as if he was ready to start again, and he was planning to mix and knead the dough.

Erina Nakiri asked subconsciously: "What are you doing..."

"As a master, a teacher, it is normal for me to review and correct your "Italian Shrimp and Cheese Ravioli" food battle homework, so that you can know where the mistakes are and how to correct and improve them, right?"

"W-what?!"

The golden-haired girl was stunned, thinking she was hallucinating.

Xia An no longer paid attention to her, his mind immersed in the panel.

"Panel, add some points!"

In addition to the small victory in the food battle just now, the goal was completed and another 2 experience points were accumulated.

Now, Xia An has a full 4 cooking experience points in his hands.

He decided to focus all his efforts on the basic skills of pastry making.

It was not just the trial making of "Flame Dumplings" that made Xia An realize that the Hexagonal Chef God could not have any flaws in his skills.

More importantly.

He has to prepare for the complete version of the "White Snake Chain" cheats!
