Erina's expression was also filled with joy. Seeing this dish, she couldn't help but think of the story when she and Liu Xing wanted to make pheasant chops together last time they shared a dormitory... That dish also had two flavors, but it was the two of them working together. completed result.

And now this "European Continent Map" depicted with eight seafood has at least five different flavors in it!

Dojima Gin used chopsticks to pick up a piece of the "German" part of the [Seafood Continental Map] and said: "This...this is [Germany]. This is the part made of seafood and abalone, and the meat part is grilled. The taste is cooked and wrapped in green onions! It's similar to German sausages, all high-grade seafood is wrapped in it, and then swallowed!"

Mukujiyuan Guo picked up the "UK" part of the [Seafood Continental Map] and said: "This is [UK]. This is to wrap crabs and shrimps together in dough, and then put them in hot oil.

This taste represents the cuisine of a certain place in the UK Chinese spicy taste!"

"Italy!" Suwon Tomomi put the "Italy" part in her mouth again and tasted it carefully.

"The flounder and squid are processed and sliced ​​with exquisite knife skills, and then the meat is mixed with this sauce and eaten together. The wonderful taste formed is irresistible!"

Chapter [-] Five Elements Cuisine

"The unique taste formed by the halibut and squid slices and this sauce... If I guessed correctly, the sauce should be sal, saverde!" Suwon Yumi asked Liu Xingyao, her eyes on Liu Xingyao.

"Oh!? It turns out that the green mushy sauce that makes up [Italian] is actually sal and saverde!"

【Salsaverde】Also known as green salsa.It is a kind of sauce that chopped anchovies and cilantro and mixed together!Often used as a condiment for meat dishes and grilled vegetables, it is also one of the most common sauces in Italian cooking!

"It's not just Salsaverde..." Kadozaki Taki also picked up a vegetable and put it in front of his eyes: "And then it's France, which is a crisp vegetable that mixes the most popular local vegetables in France and sea cucumber and scallops with French oil. Paired with dried scallops and sea cucumbers. This kind of feeling is like giving the taster a feeling of spring blossoms... roaming under the bathing sun!"

"In the end, these side dishes represent the side dishes of other countries in Europe... Because in order to highlight the different flavors of Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and Italy, these side dishes have been mixed with many flavors. It's like eating a salad, mixing With a variety of flavors, it gives people a different impact and feeling on the taste!" Kanhi Xiangzi also said with intoxication on his face. 073

"It's delicious, it's amazing! There are actually five flavors in one dish... No, not just five flavors, but many flavors!"

Liu Xingyao's seafood continental platter directly includes the most representative dishes from many European countries. It is very difficult to think about a dish that presents different tastes.

Although the five judges are graduates of Yuanyue, their cooking skills are nothing to say, and there are countless ingredients that they have seen and cooked. It is reasonable to say that ordinary cooking cannot make them move, but they are eating this [seafood] made by Liu Xingyao. European Continent Map] There is also a look of joy and Taoism on his face, just like the pure joy that a child of a few years old will show when he eats a very delicious lollipop.

At one time, the five long-graduate judges were all enjoying themselves, and their faces were full of joy! !

Polestar Liao Auditorium

"Xingyao-kun, good... that's amazing! You actually came up with this kind of food." Ryoko Sakaki said in surprise.

"This is the true strength of Xingxing Yaojun..." Jun Ibuzaki sighed once.

"In a brand-new cooking method, the eight major seafood actually expresses the different flavors of several European countries. His imagination and creativity are definitely not comparable to ordinary people..." Marui helped his eyes on the bridge of his nose. said.

Sazao Jun was also excited for Liu Xingyao to come up with such a dish, and then he became worried and said, "Hey...In that case, isn't Chuangzhen senior..."

Hearing Sa Zaojun's words, the expressions of the others in Jixingliao also sank.But there is nothing to do. There must be one person between Liu Xingyao and Chuangzhen who will be eliminated!Judging from the look on the judges' faces after eating the two of them, the result has gradually become obvious.

The five judges finally put down their chopsticks one after another, but seeing that there was not much left on their plates after eating, they were also very happy to eat.

"Huh..." Dojima Gin also had a very comfortable and enjoyable expression on his face, as did the other four female judges, all seem to be reminiscing about the deliciousness brought by the cooking just now.

Seeing the five people's expressions of enjoyment and comfort, many students were extremely surprised.

"Hey, look, the four graduates already have Chef Dojima's expression after eating the seafood platter named Liu Xingyao..."

"I just smiled after eating the transfer student's cooking, but now it's like this... It's a great satisfaction for my body and mind! They are all outstanding people in the cooking world, so how can a seafood platter be so big? magic?"

Many people are confused and puzzled.

After closing his eyes for a while, Dojima Gin finally opened his eyes to look at the dishes after eating, and said slowly: "I see... It seems that there is more than one use of Chinese cooking techniques in your dishes. "

Hearing Dojima Gin's words, Kadozaki Taki and the other four judges looked at Dojima Gin with slight doubts.

"Dojima-senpai, what do you mean by that?"

Countless people in the audience were also puzzled, and they all turned their attention to Dojima Gin, waiting for his next words.

At this time, the corner of Liu Xingyao's mouth rose slightly and smiled: "Haha, have you been discovered yet?"

"As I said just now, the original seafood platter is actually a dish from Sichuan, China, which is the main reason why you choose this dish, Xingyao." Dojima Yin looked at Liu Xingyao and said.

"Yes, Chef Dojima is right!" Liu Xingyao said.

Dojima Yin continued: "Second, I also discovered it just now! The eight major seafoods are divided into two groups to make four tastes of different countries, and the colors are also very obvious. They are blue, black, red, and white! These four colors appear in a dish at the same time, maybe there is no special meaning in other countries... But if it is used in Chinese cuisine, it has a deep meaning... Am I right? Xingyao classmate …”

Only then did Liu Xingyao raise his hands and look at the surrounding auditorium and explain loudly: "Yes, I used the ancient Chinese cooking technique to express this Western-style seafood platter. As Dojima-senpai said, blue, black, red, white The four colors represent the four European countries, Germany, Britain, France, and Italy. These four colors in China correspond to the four Chinese mythical beasts!”

Everyone was shocked again when they heard this.

"Four... Four Great Divine Beasts?"

"China's four great beasts? Those four?"

Most of the people present were not Chinese, so they didn't know anything about some of China's five old civilizations.

Liu Xingyao continued to explain: "The four mythical beasts in ancient Chinese legends are Qinglong, Xuanwu, Suzaku, and White Tiger. Green = Oriental, which means sour taste, which is the Salsaverde sauce I made. Black = North, I use squid, Halibut makes umami-flavored dishes; red = southern, representing bitterness; white = western, representing spiciness…”

Liu Xingyao has not finished speaking, because the green dragon in the east is wood, the white tiger in the west is gold, the vermilion bird in the south is fire, the basalt in the north is water, and the yellow in the center is earth.Combine the flavors of [Yin Yang and Five Elements] into one dish, so that they have a balanced taste.This kind of cuisine using the Chinese Five Elements technique is called "Five Elements Cuisine" in ancient books.

Chapter [-] The end of the first round of the second round

[Five Elements Cuisine] Also known as the Five Elements Cooking Technique, it is an ancient cooking technique of a famous chef in ancient China.Using the technique of the Five Elements in cooking to maximize the balance of the five elements, so no matter who eats the dishes made with the "Five Elements Technique", they will be greatly satisfied both physically and mentally. .

But this ancient method is not only for chefs who have high expectations for cooking, but also for chefs who have a unique understanding of the five elements.

The ancient book that Liu Xingyao read in the last life not only introduced Xi Yangxi's strange method of "training qi" to change the internal properties of food, but also gave a detailed introduction to the method of [Five Elements Cuisine].Although it has been seen many years ago, Liu Xingyao still remembers it.And what reminded Liu Xingyao of these things was thanks to watching the match between Xi Yangxi and Takmi.

Although Dojima Yin knew that Liu Xingyao used things related to the Chinese Five Elements in his cooking, he was still extremely surprised after Liu Xingyao said it himself.
