Food Wars!: Delicious Food of the Heavens

Chapter 85 Stir-fry

While instructing Hisako Shinomoto, Lin Yu continued to add milk, egg whites, sugar, and light cream to the mashed yam, and even a little bit of orange juice.

With the electric mixer running at high speed, all the ingredients were thoroughly mixed with the fine yam puree.

The final result is delicate and uniform, snow-white in color, and has a soft, cloud-like texture.

By this time, Hisako Shinoto finally realized it.

"This is... ice cream?"

"yes."

Lin Yu nodded and put the mashed yam into the refrigerator to cool it down.

Hisako Niito voiced her doubts, "But the assignment only requires us to cook two dishes, right?"

"It's just dessert!"

Lin Yu smiled and waved his hand dismissively.

"I just thought it was rare to come across a project themed around 'fruit,' so I decided to try making whatever came to mind."

Hearing this, Hisako Shinoto nodded, but still asked with some unease, "Have you ever made this kind of... yam ice cream before?"

"No!"

Lin Yu gave a somewhat straightforward smile, "This was a sudden idea I had when I was selecting ingredients just now."

"Although I had already decided which two dishes to make before that."

Lin Yu rubbed his nose sheepishly, "But since the idea has popped into my head, I thought I might as well make it happen."

"You're really something!"

Hisako Shinoto's lips twitched, and she found it difficult to maintain her original expression.

"call""

Hisako Shinoto took several deep breaths, trying to calm herself down.

But after a few seconds, she finally gave up on her futile attempt and angrily yelled at Lin Yu, "Aren't you being a bit too reckless?!"

"Don't even mention a semi-finished product, it's not even an experimental dish!"

But when faced with the frantic Hisako Shinto, Lin Yu only showed a confident expression, raised his hand, and easily placed it on Hisako Shinto's head.

Hisako Shinto tried to dodge, but found it was completely useless, so she simply gave up and let Lin Yu mess up her hair.

"Hey! I still don't think it's safe."

Hisako Shinto looked at Lin Yu with worry in her eyes.

"You're really confident in this kind of impromptu cooking?"

"certainly!"

Lin Yu tried to straighten Hisako Shinto's hair again, but she rolled her eyes and slapped him away without any politeness.

"Get serious!"

Did I ever say I wasn't serious?

Lin Yu withdrew his arm and blew on the spot where his palm had hurt.

"What? Hisako, you have so little faith in me?"

Hisako Niito pursed her lips and remained silent.

Although Lin Yu's often infuriating behavior really annoyed her, she had to admit that Lin Yu's strength far surpassed her own.

At least among her peers, he was the most enigmatic person she had ever met, without a doubt...

"By the way, Hisako, how's the pot heating up?"

Lin Yu's voice suddenly rang out.

Hisako Shinoto finally remembered that she had already put the wok on the stove and turned the heat to the maximum.

Hisako Shinto turned her head and saw that the bottom of the wok had turned a dangerous bright red, and the air above the wok was distorting wildly.

Hisako Shinto was startled by this scene.

"red...

...It's famous!

"Don't make a fuss, this is the effect I wanted."

"That's not enough!"

Lin Yu put his hand on Hisako Shinto's shoulder and gently pushed her aside. "Go and watch the fire for the stewed pork chops."

""

"Although it's simmering on low heat the whole time, there's not much liquid to begin with, so you need to keep an eye on it and make sure it doesn't burn!"

"knew!"

Hisako Niito took a few steps back, somewhat worriedly adding, "Then be careful, don't set the stove on fire!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Hisako Shinoto seemed to realize that her words were a bit abrupt, and immediately changed her tune, saying, "What I meant was, be careful! The fire is so big, be careful not to get burned."

""

Lin Yu joked, "Why are you suddenly so concerned about me?"

Hisako Shinto glared at Lin Yu.

"You idiot... I just didn't want to cause an accident!"

Don't overthink it!

Hisako Shinoto offered an explanation, then ran without looking back to the pot of stewed pork chops, intently guarding it.

Lin Yu chuckled and didn't continue teasing her.

Because at this moment, the dangerous bright red color in the wok in front of Lin Yu had spread to most of the wok.

Lin Yu reached out and made a grasping motion in the air above the pot.

The scorching air caused a slight stinging sensation on the skin of his palms.

"Okay, that's fine!"

Lin Yu flicked his arm, and a spoonful of cooking oil slid smoothly into the pot.

The oil heats up rapidly the moment it touches the pan, and wisps of blue smoke rise from the pan.

Lin Yu pinched one side of the wok with a repeatedly folded, damp towel, and with a gentle force, the oil in the wok swished around in the wok, evenly coating the sides.

The oil temperature rose rapidly. Lin Yu didn't dare to delay. He took the marinated beef strips, gently shook them apart, and put them into the pot.

The hot oil made a loud sizzling sound when it came into contact with the food.

The rich aroma of meat, mixed with a hint of fruit, permeates the air.

Lin Yu gently tossed the wok, causing the shredded beef to separate, and at the same time, a half-meter-high pillar of fire rose from the wok!

"This is it!"

"That fierce flame has reappeared!"

"Whoosh—"

Upon hearing the commotion, Hisako Shinto couldn't help but frequently glance in Lin Yu's direction.

Even though it wasn't the first time she had seen such a sight, Hisako Shinto's self-gaze was still filled with shock.

Or rather, the awe-inspiring power of these images of humans taming raging flames will never diminish simply because we've seen them.

No matter how many times you've seen it, seeing it again will always be a truly awe-inspiring experience!

Although Lin Yu noticed the intense gazes behind him, he didn't have time to tease Hisako Shinto right now.

Even he had to be completely focused on this kind of stunning and visually spectacular stir-frying!

The surface of the shredded beef was seared in the flames, and Lin Yu tossed the wok in persimmon sauce as he did so.

The rich and thick persimmon sauce, under the intense heat and hot oil, has its flavor maximized and is driven by the flames to seep into every fiber of the shredded beef.

In just a few seconds, there was no longer any obvious liquid in the pot. Instead, each shred of beef was evenly coated with an orange layer, giving it a crystal-clear appearance and faintly reflecting the flames.

This is a thick, sticky persimmon sauce, which has been fully absorbed by the beef.

Lin Yu showed a satisfied expression, and then added more shredded green peppers and bamboo shoots.

The flames in the pot grew larger and larger, so Lin Yu moved back a little to avoid getting his hair or clothes wet from the flames.

But his hand movements remained perfectly in place, maintaining the same rhythm, and even his expression remained calm and composed throughout.

The green peppers and bamboo shoots were cut into thin strips, so they cooked very quickly.

Under the intense heat, the green pepper strips and bamboo shoot strips began to shrink within seconds, and their aroma seeped out from the inside.

The flavors of beef, bamboo shoots, and green peppers—three different ingredients—are maximized under the intense heat of hot oil, and then, under Lin Yu's control, they are tempered in the flames, ultimately merging into one.

In an instant, an exceptionally strong aroma filled the classroom.
