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

Hearing her reminder, everyone looked over at the same time.

I saw that the slightly charred cut of the steak was actually filled with continuous and fine deep red muscle textures!

"It's amazing. Whether it's the smell, appearance, or touch, it seems to be exactly the same as real steak."

Yoshino Yuuki observed the textures carefully, and the more she looked, the more shocked she became.

Alice Nakiri also showed a shocked expression, but when she thought of her previous doubts, she couldn't help but pretend to be strong for the sake of face.

"Humph, they only look the same on the outside, it's hard to tell what the real taste is."

Lin Han looked at her, smiled faintly, and made a gesture of invitation.

Alice Nakiri looked at the piece of "steak" on the fork that was just the right size to fit into her mouth, and took a deep breath of the fragrance.

Then put the meat into your mouth.

“The scorching oil temperature is like the oil dancing on the tip of your tongue the moment it enters your mouth.”

"The flour wrapped in taro paste, after being baked and fried, has a surface that tastes exactly like real fillet steak."

"And this rich sauce tightly wraps the 'steak' inside and out. You don't even need to chew, the rich aroma of the sauce is already filling your mouth."

Feeling this magical touch on the tip of her tongue, Alice Nakiri couldn't help but close her eyes and began to chew.

"It's incredible, it's incredible."

She let out a series of exclamations.

"I can actually feel the chewy and tender taste of fillet steak from this piece of meat!"

"Even the slightest muscle texture comes alive in my mind every time I chew it!"

"And as the teeth squeeze and tear, the sauce that has penetrated into the silky texture continues to come out!"

“It’s like a volcano erupting, my mouth is filled with the hot, rich aroma of the sauce!”

The delicious and rich sauce lingered on Alice's tongue even after she swallowed the "steak" in her mouth with reluctance.

It's like being in the crater of a volcano, through the taste that persists on the tip of your tongue.

I could feel the deafening sound of the erupting volcano, which lasted for a long time.

Exploding volcano, this is real

"How on earth... did they do this?"

Alice Nakiri's red eyes, which always revealed an ambiguous smile, were now replaced by deep shock.

“The texture and taste of the meat are exactly the same as real fillet steak.”

"After being seasoned with the sauce prepared by Lin Hanjun himself, it tastes better than any fillet steak I've ever had!"

As one of the heirs of the Nakiri family, Alice Nakiri has always been able to get whatever she wants.

Those expensive ingredients that ordinary people could not afford no matter how hard they tried were just something she could easily get.

However, the fillet steak that Lin Han had just prepared not only made her taste the most delicious fillet steak she had ever tasted before.

Even the texture of the meat was almost the same as the best steaks she had ever tasted!

Shocked. At this moment, Alice Nakiri was filled with shock.

If it were at the beginning, her expectations of Lin Han would only be 95%.

When seeing that Lin Han actually planned to use taro paste and flour to make imitation steak, the expectation score had already dropped to 70 points, or even lower.

 …

But now, this steak, whether it is aroma, taste, or texture.

It can be said that all the requirements are in full compliance with the requirements she had agreed upon with Lin Han before!

Full marks, absolutely full marks.

Score complet (full score)!

While her heart was deeply touched, the look in Alice Nakiri's eyes when she looked at Lin Han was unconsciously more touching.

"Is it really that powerful? I want to try it too?"

Kuga Teruki had already whetted his appetite with the tempting aroma, and seeing Alice Nakiri's shocked expression, his curiosity was further piqued.

Unable to wait to cut a piece of steak, Teruki Kuga carefully looked at the texture of the cut.

“It’s incredible, it’s exactly like real beef tenderloin.”

The moment you put the "steak" in your mouth and chew it, you will taste the wonderful flavor of countless spices.

Like drops of water exploding on the tip of your tongue.

It seemed as if my mouth, nose, and even my entire esophagus were being hit hard by this torrent of intense fragrance!

"Exploding volcano, it's really an explosive volcano!"

“The hot, thick sauce slid down my throat like magma!”

"The meat is tender and chewy, giving your teeth and tongue a satisfying feeling!"

"How on earth did you do that, Lin Hanzi?!"

Not only Kuga Teruki, but also Nakiri Alice, Tadokoro Megumi, Kurokiba Ryo and others were also looking at Lin Han eagerly.

I hope I can get the answer I want from him.

[137] The secret of the muscles! More strange knowledge! (1 more, please subscribe!)

Faced with their eager gazes, Lin Han kept it a secret for now.

"Do you remember what I did before mixing the flour and taro paste?"

After Lin Han's reminder, Kuga Teruki and others immediately racked their brains and thought hard.

"What did you do? It was just kneading dough..."

“No, Lin Hanjun does more than just mix the dough.”

The first person to discover the secret was indeed Hojo Miyoko, who was well versed in Chinese cuisine.

At this moment, she was rapidly searching through the memory fragments in her mind, about every step that Lin Han took in preparing the meal.

From steaming taro, making taro paste, to taking out flour and making noodles...

Wait a minute.

"Wait... If you plan to use flour to make taro paste, there is no need for Lin Hanjun to knead the flour first."

"unless……"

Hojo Miyoko suddenly turned her head and looked at one side of the cooking table.

There was a huge porcelain bowl there, which was "四六三" and nearly a foot wide.

In Hojo Miyoko's memory, the bowl should have been filled with clean water.

However, when she walked to the cooking table, she found that the clear water had turned into a turbid white color.

When she leaned closer, she could smell the scent of flour.

"Yes, that's it!"

Miyoko Hojo showed a surprised expression, obviously she had found the key to making the taro dough have the same taste as fillet steak.

"The clean water originally contained in this bowl is used to wash gluten!"

"Washing gluten? What is that?"

"It sounds like it has something to do with cleaning, but what does this have to do with dough..."

The members of the Chinese Cuisine Research Society looked at each other, wondering what mystery Hojo Midori had seen from the bowl of water.

"I see!"

Kuga Teruki, who also has some knowledge of Chinese cuisine, has also studied a lot of dishes from other factions of Chinese cuisine since he lost to Lin Han in the food battle.

After hearing the words “wash gluten”, Kuga Teruki reacted immediately.

"Gluten is a plant protein made up of gliadin and glutenin."

“It is also a product derived from flour cooking, but its texture is more chewy than dough.”

"The method of making it is also very simple. First, add appropriate amount of salt and water to the flour, and then knead the flour into a smooth dough."

"After letting the dough rest for a while, put it into clean water and rub it like clothes."

"Until all the active flour and other impurities in the dough are washed away, what remains is the so-called gluten."

Hojo Miyoko explained to everyone incessantly.

This unprecedented practice also surprised Alice Nakiri, Megumi Tadokoro and others.

"No way... Can dough be washed? This is the first time I've heard of this."

Kurokiba Ryoya stared and muttered in disbelief.

"Yes, it is scientifically possible."

Alice Nakiri, who is dedicated to molecular gastronomy, was briefly shocked.

I understood the science behind this practice faster than others.

"Moreover, the higher the moisture content of the dough itself, the faster the so-called gluten will form."

"It's only when the proteins in the dough absorb enough water and swell up enough that they can intertwine with each other."

"In this way, what is called a mesh structure is formed."

After understanding the principle of gluten, Alice Nakiri began to analyze it in detail.

"Sounds awesome."

Tadokoro Megumi muttered to herself.

"It feels strange that I have gained more knowledge."

Sakaki Ryoko also nodded in agreement, and Yoshino Yuuki raised her hand.

"So, after washing, the remaining gluten should be chewy, right?"

"good."

Lin Han nodded, confirming Yoshino Yuki's guess.

"After washing, the gluten will not stick together again due to kneading like dough."

"So I washed the gluten and stretched it to the degree I needed, and then filled the gaps in the gluten with taro paste mixed with an appropriate amount of flour."

"The taro gluten made in this way will have the chewy and tender taste that I require for fillet steak."

After listening to Lin Han's explanation, Alice Nakiri suddenly spoke.

“And before you actually start frying the taro gluten, you coat the gluten with a layer of prepared sauce.”

"The network structure between the gluten makes it not as airtight as it appears on the surface."

"During the low-heat roasting process, the sauce will penetrate into the interior through the mesh gaps, thus achieving the same effect as the first marinade."

Although the most difficult problem has been solved, Alice Nakiri still couldn't help but applaud Lin Han's design ideas.

"And the first oven baking can also change the outer skin of the taro paste gluten, so that the moisture of the sauce is fully locked inside."

“After it’s out of the oven, it’s fried again and cooked with sauce a second time, so that it’s so juicy that it feels like volcanic magma erupting in your mouth.”

Kurokiba Ryoya expressed his own analysis.

"What an incredible design, worthy of being Lin Hanzi."

Kuga Teruki said with a sigh.

“We can take the characteristics of Chinese cuisine and apply them flexibly elsewhere.”

"Just this idea alone is enough to create a huge gap between us."
