Food Wars!: I Became a Fantasy Ingredient Supplier

but.

This unique business model naturally has its own drawbacks.

If a chef dies unexpectedly before passing on his culinary skills to his descendants, the tradition will be interrupted. Once the tradition is broken, various restaurants and estates may decline as a result.

Once-glorious restaurants may have gradually lost their customers and eventually disappeared into the annals of history simply because a single signature dish was lost.

so.

How can we ensure that the unique skills and dishes that have influenced the family's long-term success are passed down through generations?

For many people, this is actually a tremendous test!

This requires not only chefs to have superb skills, but also to have a sense of responsibility and awareness of passing on their skills.

Of course.

We need to find a suitable successor.

To then impart all that he has learned in his life is no easy task.

……

but.

But that's not entirely true.

Throughout history, the loss of those dishes is undoubtedly a loss to the culinary world today.

Every lost dish may contain the unique wisdom and creativity of the ancients. Their disappearance is like the fall of a brilliant star in the long river of history.

However, the simpler the dish, the more it requires skill to prepare.

Take this dish, boiled cabbage in clear broth, for example.

On the surface, anyone can make it; it's just cabbage and a little soup, so it doesn't seem difficult at all!

But to achieve the ultimate perfection, to reach the state of clear soup with rich flavor, is not something everyone can do.

There are many intricacies involved!

……

First of all.

It must be knife skills.

To process cabbage properly, each leaf should be of uniform thickness, preserving its tenderness without compromising its shape.

Seasoning is an even more complex subject.

The seasoning of the soup base must be precise down to every single gram of seasoning.

Too much salt and it's too salty; too little and it's too bland. Only the right amount of seasoning can bring out the rich and mellow flavor of the clear broth.

Simultaneously.

The pairing of ingredients is also crucial!

The cabbage and the various ingredients in the soup base should complement each other perfectly.

No single ingredient should overshadow the others, yet they should all work together to create a harmonious flavor.

Color and presentation are equally important; an attractive dish can whet the appetite at first glance. The emerald green cabbage leaves, partially obscured in the clear broth, resemble a beautiful ink painting.

Finally, controlling the heat is the most crucial step!

The cabbage should not be cooked for too long, otherwise it will become soft and mushy, losing its original crisp and tender texture; nor should it be cooked for too short a time, otherwise the cabbage will not have fully absorbed the flavor of the broth.

all in all.

Precise control of the proportions of various ingredients is like a sophisticated chemical experiment.

Only when the proportions are just right can this boiled cabbage in clear broth reach perfection, and these elements are extremely demanding on a chef's skills.

But setting aside these essential elements, it is still just a dish of cabbage with a little bit of soup.

and so.

Any dish.

They all have their own significance.

Regardless of the price of the ingredients or the skill level of the chef, as long as the food satisfies the diners' appetites, that's enough.

……

Second.

Ultimately, society as a whole is progressing.

The cuisine of the future will undergo tremendous changes, much like the way humans entertain themselves in the future.

Just like most people nowadays, they no longer have the mood to read a long novel, to understand the complex historical background, to study the ingenious plot, and to satisfy themselves with the imagination of words.

People tend to prefer quick and easy forms of entertainment, such as short videos and games.

And the future of food will be the same!

It will use the fastest and most efficient way to extract human appetite, making people unable to stop eating.

After all, in this fast-paced era, people don't have much time to slowly savor a complex dish; they prefer to satisfy their taste buds quickly.

Therefore, future cuisines may place greater emphasis on efficiency and taste, and on meeting people's needs for fast-paced consumption.

"Not to mention the past, even now, many dishes are destined to gradually disappear in the future. This is an unavoidable trend, and there's nothing we can do to change it!"

"Ichiro Saiba said with a sigh, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and regret."

……

Obviously.

Ye Chen's boiled cabbage in clear broth.

This seems to have given Saiba Joichiro a new understanding!

Although he used to travel all over the world, he saw a lot of things and tasted all kinds of different cuisines.

However, it seems that he still has a short-sighted view on some issues.

he realized.

The vastness and profundity of cuisine.

It far exceeded his previous expectations, and there were still many mysteries waiting for him to explore.

Finally, after regaining his senses, Saiba Joichiro couldn't help but praise Ye Chen, saying, "Ye Chen, you have given me a deeper understanding and appreciation of food!"

……

Everything can be made into curry!

This is no exaggeration.

Cook a bowl of rice, add curry on top, and it becomes curry rice. The rich curry aroma coats every grain of rice, making it so delicious that you can't stop eating it.

If you make a steak and add curry on top, it becomes curry steak.

The steak was tender.

The richness of curry.

When the two are perfectly combined, they create a unique taste.

Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that curry has long been a "human delicacy" throughout the world.

Especially in India, the whole country smelled of curry.

Walking through the streets and alleys of Tianzhu, you can smell the rich aroma of curry everywhere. Whether it's a street stall or a high-end restaurant, curry is an indispensable delicacy.

In Siam, Southeast Asia, curry is also a common dish on the dining table of almost every ordinary person.

The Siamese people love to use various fresh spices to make curry, and its unique flavor is loved by the locals.

Ah!

Even in the eagle-like countries of Europe.

Curry chicken is also an important "national dish".

Chicken curry is always an indispensable dish on the table during important holidays or gatherings.

In Japan, people eat more than 100 billion plates of curry every year!

Think about it.

What an astonishing number.

The Japanese love curry to the point of obsession. They not only eat curry in restaurants, but also make various flavors of curry at home.

……

In fact.

Curry originated in India and is said to be a sauce invented by Buddha.

This sounds like it carries a mysterious "Buddhist" aura, but this very "Buddhist" invention has spread to various places amidst a sea of ​​blood because of human greed.
