Shokugeki no Sora: Obtain Lan Feihong's inheritance at the beginning!

Sakaki Ryoko analyzed and Hojo Midori nodded repeatedly.

"Oh, look, Lin Hanjun has already made his choice."

Yoshino Yuuki patted Tadokoro Megumi's hand.

Everyone looked up and saw several vegetables on the cooking table that were smaller than potatoes and looked like they were covered in mud.

Rotating.

"Taro? Lin Hanjun chose taro?"

【135】Exploding Volcano Fillet Steak! A perfect combination of texture and flavor! (3 more chapters, please subscribe!)

Everyone looked at those seemingly inconspicuous taro with some surprise.

But at this moment, they are destined to shine because they are chosen by Lin Han as the main ingredients of the dish.

"Yup!"

Hojo Midori cried out in surprise, as if she had thought of something.

“Taro and potato have similar plasticity, but have a softer and more delicate texture.”

"If taro is used instead of meat, the problem of sandy texture will not occur."

"But……"

Tanomo Kei looked a little worried.

“The texture of taro is more delicate than potato, and its tastelessness makes it more suitable for seasoning.”

"But there's probably no way to use it to create a satisfying taste after taking a bite."

In order to create the dense and soft texture of eel meat, Kurokiba Ryo chose potatoes as ingredients.

Taro has a softer texture than potatoes, and its taste is easier to control than potatoes.

But it also tends to lack the rich satisfaction of meat.

In response to Tadokoro Tadokoro's concerns, Ryoko Sakaki and others also expressed their agreement.

Especially Yoshino Yuki, who is good at game cooking, can be considered an expert in meat cooking.

"If you want to imitate the taste of real meat, in addition to the satisfying feeling of thickness, even the texture must be perfectly imitated."

“It sounds like it’s going to be difficult.”

“Because it’s really difficult.”

Everyone widened their eyes, looking forward to Lin Han's actions.

After washing 460, Lin Han placed the taro on a steamer covered with gauze.

"Do you plan to steam it first and then cook it?"

"Well, it's easier to peel the skin this way. Kurokiba-san also steamed the potatoes before cooking them."

After the taro was steamed, Lin Han left it for a while. After the heat subsided, he peeled off the skin of the taro with quick movements.

"Wow, this flawless color looks so delicious."

"The taro at this time just tastes good, it still needs to be paired with seasoning to taste better."

"I wonder what kind of imitation meat dish Lin Hanjun is going to make, steak or seafood?"

"Given the texture of taro, it can probably only be used to make meat dishes with a softer texture."

"Look, look, what did Lin Hanjun take out again?"

Put the peeled taro into a large transparent bowl, add appropriate amount of condensed milk and mash it into a paste.

Then, Lin Han took out another bag from the cabinet under the kitchen counter.

“It’s flour!”

“And it’s a high-gluten flour used for making dishes that require a more textured texture!”

When everyone saw the bag of flour, they suddenly realized what was going on.

If we only rely on the soft texture of taro paste itself, it is indeed difficult to satisfy the lip satiating (cafh) requirements of real meat dishes.

But if you use it with flour, as long as you can master the ratio between the two, you can also make imitation meat dishes with excellent taste!

"But if we do this, the control of proportions will probably be very strict."

"If the proportions are not balanced, even the slightest deviation will lead to a failure in the overall taste."

"After all, it's imitation cuisine. Every step is like walking on a tightrope. It's really difficult."

Amid the discussions, the members watching nearby felt an inexplicable tension and pressure.

It was as if they were the ones preparing the food at the kitchen counter.

However, Lin Han, who was actually preparing the dish, had an expression on his face that showed he was extremely at ease.

Put the processed taro paste into the oven, and then Lin Han began to prepare the sauce.

In order to test Kurokiba Ryo, Lin Han had already asked Kuga Teruki to prepare as many spices as possible in advance.

Kuga Teruki seems to be careless in his personality, but he is surprisingly reliable when it comes to doing things.

After listening to Lin Han's request, not only were there all the spices and condiments needed for daily life, but also some specialty spices from Southeast Asia.

I don't know where Teruki Kuga found it from.

"If it weren't for Senior Kuga finding so many rich spices, it would be quite difficult to make this dish."

Lin Han, who was skillfully cooking the sauce in the pot, had a smile on his face.

"What on earth is Lin Hanjun planning to cook? It looks like it's going to be very big."

"It can't really be steak, right? Even if flour is used, can taro paste really be used to make it taste like steak?"

Not only the members, but even Alice Nakiri put away the smile on her face that looked like she was watching a good show.

He looked at Lin Han with confusion in his eyes.

"Ding--"

A time-out reminder sound came from the oven, and Lin Han's sauce was also cooked.

Quickly taking out the "steaks" from the oven, Lin Han used another pan and slid a small piece of butter into the pan.

Add the grilled "steaks" and sauce at the same time.

Whoops-

The sound of intense oil frying came from the pot, and at the same time, a rich aroma of sauce and meat emanated.

"Oh my god, this rich flavor is exactly like real steak!"

"And it smells even stronger. I can feel my stomach growling."

"Lin Hanjun's sauce actually makes vegetarian food taste like meat."

Although everyone is still worried about whether the cooking made by Lin Han can really make the final product present the texture of meat.

But at this moment, no one could resist the rich aroma of meat.

"This sauce not only uses common seasonings like soy sauce, but Lin Hanzi also uses a lot of special spices from China."

He is the undisputed expert on Chinese cuisine in the school besides Lin Han and Hojo Midori.

Even without observing Lin Han's movements, Kuga Teruki could discern the flavors of a lot of spices from the sauce.

"Bay leaves, star anise, cinnamon...he used at least twenty kinds of spices when making the sauce just now!"

"So many?"

Sakaki Ryoko and others covered their mouths in surprise.

Although they had seen Lin Han's every move in preparing the sauce, in their eyes.

Lin Han just grabbed a handful of spices from the cooking table and sprinkled them into the pot. After adding water and boiling, it became this rich and mellow sauce.

“Tsk tsk, don’t underestimate Lin Hanzi. He just seemed to be grabbing the spices casually, but in fact, he already knew the proportion of each spice by heart.”

Kuga Teruki crossed his arms and said confidently.

Kurokiba Ryo, who was watching from the side, became even more silent.

Although he also perfectly blended the taste of eel through the sauce.

But compared to Lin Han's effortless and relaxed modulation process.

The difference between them in blending spices is huge.

"Sorry for the wait. Please enjoy the Exploding Volcano Fillet Steak."

Not long after, Lin Han presented the prepared dish.

"Wow, the dark brown 'steak' is soaked with thick, glossy sauce, and you can even see the texture of real steak."

"The hot fat sizzles on the surface of the steak, and you can't wait to cut a piece and put it in your mouth to feel the thick and satisfying taste."

"Everyone, don't ignore the aroma of the sauce. I have never smelled such a fragrant sauce."

"Yes, yes, yes. If it were a real steak, it would be even more addictive!"

Everyone gathered around the cooking table, enduring the crazy saliva secreting from their mouths while looking at the tempting "steak" eagerly.

"Wait, I have a question."

At this moment, Alice Nakiri, who had been hiding her smile from a while ago, suddenly raised her hand.

【136】The satisfaction of meat! The harmony of sauce! Blushing Alice! (4 more chapters, please subscribe!)

"Alice, please speak."

Lin Han didn't seem surprised by Alice Nakiri's question.

And Alice Nakiri's eyes were also fixed on Lin Han.

"I just want to know, Lin Hanjun, why did you choose to use taro paste to make filet steak?"

"Although fillet is made from the tenderest part of the steak, the texture of taro paste is so distinct that even with flour, it's impossible to achieve that texture, right?"

"And after adding flour, it is more difficult for the sauce to penetrate into the texture like real fillet steak and achieve the effect of flavor."

Although this method has never been tried before, in Alice Nakiri's huge database-like data memory.

It is impossible to make the taste of steak by using taro paste and flour!

For a moment, Nakiri Alice, who had originally had great expectations for Lin Han, felt deeply disappointed because of Lin Han's "reckless" behavior.

Facing her doubts, Lin Han was like a silent rock. No matter what happened, he did not waver at all.

"I know you're worried, Alice, but once you taste this explosive volcano fillet steak, you'll understand why I did this."

Lin Han's calm voice seemed to calm down Alice Nakiri, who was originally filled with loss and doubt.

But at this moment she still couldn't understand what Lin Han was up to, so she had to take the fork and elegantly cut off a small piece of the "steak".

Amid the sizzling sound of hot oil, Alice Nakiri felt the touch of the knife and fork and her eyes widened in surprise.

“What’s going on… This feeling is like poking into the elastic texture of a real steak…”

“The texture is thick, full, and slightly resilient, just like fillet steak!”

Hearing Alice Nakiri's murmurs, the people around her also showed surprised expressions.

Originally, they were surprised to see that Lin Han actually dared to use steak, which has a much higher difficulty than fish in taste, as the target of this imitation meat dish.

Everyone thought that even if it was Lin Han, the final dish he made would only be satisfactory.

But, feelings don’t lie!

"Everyone, look at the cut of the steak!"

Sakaki Ryoko suddenly exclaimed.
