Food Wars!: I Became a Fantasy Ingredient Supplier

It's definitely not as simple as a customer might imagine—making a pot of hand-drip coffee in two minutes.

It demands extreme precision, which is reflected in the control of wrist and arm muscles, the control of time, grind size, roast level, coffee bean variety, and coffee origin in pour-over coffee making...

In short, a good hand-drip coffee requires the barista to have a thorough understanding of coffee, and even the incredible concept of "coffee science".

……

"How about it?"

"I hope you won't be disappointed with the place I recommended."

Alice, who was also drinking coffee and looked quite content, asked Ye Chen with a smile.

"Ok!"

Ye Chen nodded.

Indeed, without Alice, he most likely wouldn't have walked into this café during his trip to Scandinavia.

Perhaps the Danes understand the importance of temperature to flavor.

As the last drop of coffee slid down his throat, the lingering aroma at the bottom of the cup still lingered in his nasal cavity. Ye Chen felt as if he were listening to a symphony without instruments, a truly unforgettable experience.

What flows from the spout of the pour-over kettle is not just coffee, but a culinary poem that the Danes have fused with minimalism, functional design and nature worship!

Chapter 47 Red-haired Pig

After finishing my coffee.

The two then arrived at an amusement park 10 kilometers from the city center.

This place is equipped with more than 30 adventure and thrill facilities, the most famous of which is undoubtedly the wooden roller coaster, which has been loved by many tourists since it started operating in 1932!

"Hey."

"That was so exciting!"

Alice was still caught up in the roller coaster ride and couldn't tear herself away.

Afterwards, in high spirits, she took Ye Chen to the nearby opera house to see a concert, then visited Amalienborg Palace, and then went shopping for clothes...

Until now.

Ye Chen then realized that this woman was full of energy when she went shopping!

Although the temperature outside is still a bit high, it still can't stop Alice.

She's an energetic young woman who never knows what fatigue is and is completely absorbed in the joy of shopping.

……

evening.

It arrived quietly.

On a side street in downtown Copenhagen.

Ye Chen and Alice held hands, just like any other couple, facing the bright red sunset, feeling warm and romantic.

"Tomorrow at this time, with the same sunset and the same path, I'll surely feel a completely different state of mind."

Alice thought to herself!

The two walked on in silence, letting the cool evening breeze entangle their hair, then separate it, then entangle it again, and then separate it again…

Once they reached the headquarters of the Molecular Gastronomy Catering Association, Alice slowly turned around and looked up at Ye Chen.

Under the lamplight, his face seemed to be enveloped in the sun, with a dazzling halo around it.

Sudden.

A fragrant breeze wafted by.

Alice suddenly rushed into his arms.

The sudden force caused the unsuspecting Ye Chen to take two steps back.

"Ye Chen, thank you so much. I've never had so much fun in my life as I have today."

Alice murmured in Ye Chen's arms.

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, and could only helplessly put his arms around Alice's shoulders. After a few seconds, Alice pushed Ye Chen away: "Thank you for the hug, I feel even better now."

After saying that, he walked in without looking back, leaving Ye Chen standing there in a daze.

"Ha! She's quite a frank girl."

After a long time.

Ye Chen slowly came to his senses.

He didn't actually know what Alice was thinking.

From the very first encounter, I felt that she was indeed like the character in the original novel, with a very pure and frank personality.

Although she is a bit competitive, she is actually very kind-hearted. Without her company today, it would have been really difficult for her to find these interesting places in Scandinavia!

No one can dislike a gentle girl.

However, girls with strong personalities also have a unique charm in Ye Chen's eyes!

Of course, Ye Chen was not naive enough to believe that Alice had developed feelings for him after spending two or three days together.

Ah!

More than just liking someone.

Perhaps, appreciation was the majority factor.

As for romantic love between men and women, that doesn't even count.

……

a few days later.

At night, enjoy a panoramic view of Paris from the top floor of the Pompidou Centre.

The Haussmannian buildings in Paris have all been transformed into blocks, with only the Eiffel Tower standing proudly, a stark contrast to the incongruous "Black Widow" Montparnasse Tower.

It felt like looking down at the ground from an airplane, with people gradually disappearing from sight.

All high-rise buildings.

They all turned into tiny "toys".

Perhaps this is what it means to "stand on the summit and look down on all the mountains below".

When viewed from a higher perspective, everything seems insignificant, and those busy people in their daily lives truly appear as small as ants.

And at this time.

In downtown Paris.

In a similarly small restaurant, however, a completely different scene unfolds!

……

Selected red-haired pork.

Cut into even small pieces or thin slices and place in a large bowl.

Add light soy sauce, cooking wine, and honey. Yes, although the red-haired pig itself has the most original flavor, honey can make the meat more tender and juicy. Then add ginger slices, scallion segments, and the indispensable cumin.

Put on gloves and give the pork a "full-body massage" so that every piece of meat can fully absorb the flavor of the seasonings.

then.

Marinate.

Let time give them a deeper flavor.

Next, the charcoal fire was preheated.

……

There's a saying in China that goes something like this:

"If a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools."

Before grilling, make sure the charcoal fire is preheated to its optimal temperature.

Meanwhile, inside the restaurant, the glowing red charcoal fire resembled a volcano about to erupt, waiting to fully unleash the deliciousness of the ingredients.

Afterwards, Ye Chen skewered the marinated red-haired pork onto bamboo sticks and placed them on the preheated charcoal fire.

In this process.

He needs to turn the meat skewers over from time to time.

Ensure that every side of the pork is heated evenly.

When you see the surface of the meat skewers start to change color and emit an enticing aroma, you can sprinkle some sesame seeds and chopped green onions on top to enhance the flavor and color.

……

Right now.
