My daily life of cooking food in Tokyo

Chapter 166 Apprenticeship?

The knife skills are unique.

Well, this evaluation should be enough to solve the current dilemma.

Neither Liu Minghui was hit, nor did he violate his previous promise to evaluate truthfully.

Looking further, I found that this unique vegetable tempura batter is very well done.

At first glance, the hanging batter is of average thickness almost everywhere.

Especially in some irregular places, it can also be done, which can reflect a certain level.

It seems that there is nothing to be gained. When the time comes, I can boast a wave of slurry hanging skills and pass this test vaguely, which can be regarded as a good deal.

With this thought in mind, Akamatsu Kosuke picked up a piece of green pepper tempura and put it into his mouth.

The green pepper was cut into thin slices of moderate thickness, and when it was put in the mouth, it immediately made a crisp sound.

There was a crisp and pleasant sound when the coat collided with the teeth.

Due to the thin coating, the tooth breaks through the green pepper layer without much effort.

The fresh green peppers are extremely crisp, which is different from the crispness of the batter and complements each other perfectly.

The most commendable thing is that this green pepper seems to have been specially processed to remove the special bitterness.

Just keep a little for seasoning and it's delicious.

With the tempura sauce, it has a wonderful taste.

Akamatsu Kosuke was shocked.

This plate of tempura actually reached such a level, it was no worse than the tempura that I had fried.

Akamatsu Kosuke said that to put gold on his own face.

The reason why he chose tempura as the test topic is because his tempura level is really average.

Therefore, there will be no preconceived notions about Liu Minghui’s cuisine being unpalatable.

In other words, his tempura level has not reached the master level at all.

Naturally, it is impossible to compare with Liu Minghui’s master tempura.

Thinking of this, Akamatsu Kosuke picked up another piece of sweet potato tempura.

Sweet potato tempura is one of the more difficult types of tempura.

The sweet potato in the middle needs to be deep-fried to be soft and sweet, and the outside is just a thin layer of batter.

Only a master of craftsmanship can produce sweet potato tempura to this degree.

When you bite into it, the first thing you feel is the crispy tempura dough.

Contrary to Akamatsu Hirosuke's expectation, the soft and glutinous sweet potatoes are wrapped under the golden and crispy batter.

The selected sweet potatoes have no gluten, and they taste not only soft, but also extraordinarily sweet.

Akamatsu Kosuke was a little shocked, Liu Minghui's sweet potato tempura could reach this level?

How does the thin coating ensure that the sweet potato wrapped in it is completely cooked and presents the most delicious appearance while being golden and crispy?
It's unbelievable.

This is a height that is far beyond his reach.

There is no doubt that Liu Minghui's tempura level is far above his own.

The so-called seemingly unique knife skill is actually to ensure that every part of the ingredients has the same maturity.

Of course, there is also a method that does not require changing the knife, that is, carefully select and only choose the most suitable part of the ingredients.

But in this case, a lot of food will be wasted.

Even these ingredients are extremely cheap.

If you lose your respect for ingredients, you will not be able to go far in cooking.

But I didn't expect Master Liu to have such comprehension at such a young age, no wonder he was able to reach such a high level.

How can I be qualified to judge such a perfect tempura?
If you can understand the secrets, you may be able to advance to the next level in tempura.

At this time, any ridiculous idea of ​​apprenticeship was completely forgotten by Akamatsu Kosuke.

Fortunately, he didn't speak before, otherwise Master Liu would definitely think that he was ignorant.

If it weren't for the fact that the situation in front of him was really inappropriate, he even wanted to directly apprentice him.

Ask Liu Minghui to teach him how to fry tempura.

Looking at Feng Qingyun Dan, Yamaguchi Ryuzo was eating vegetable tempura one bite at a time.

Akamatsu Hirosuke's excitement was beyond words.

Sure enough, as Yamaguchi Ryuzo said, being able to temporarily become his registered disciple is his great blessing.

A fried food master became his registered disciple.

Although I only borrowed my name temporarily, it was enough for me to boast for a year.

Coughing, putting away his thoughts, Akamatsu Hirosuke pretended to be calm and said:
“Master Liu’s tempura is undoubtedly excellent.”

"It even gave me the feeling of rising from a high mountain."

"It's my honor to be named as my registered disciple."

Just after Chimatsu Kosuke finished his words of approval, Liu Minghui, who had qualified for the competition, also received a system prompt:
"Ding, congratulations to the host for the completely random task: participating in the competition."

"Ding, the mission reward fried food cooking level (advanced) has been distributed, please check."

As a huge amount of knowledge entered Liu Minghui's mind, his cooking skills improved.

Ryuzo Yamaguchi on the side was a little surprised, and this evaluation was a little too high.

A little bit out of his expectation.

Unexpectedly, Kosuke Akamatsu, who usually looks serious, is also a complimentary person.

Although today's tempura is indeed better than the ones I have eaten in the store before.

But do you have to lick like this?

Little did he know that Akamatsu Kosuke was completely inspired.

As Hirosuke Akamatsu said, Yamaguchi Ryuzo's appreciation level is not high enough.

Not enough to know how powerful Liu Minghui is.

Liu Minghui said calmly: "It is my honor to satisfy Mr. Chisong."

"But I can't bear the name of master."

"There is no end to cooking. I still have a long way to go."

"I'm still young, and it's considered a success if I can complete a course of cooking in my life."

I am still young?

Akamatsu Kosuke said he was very hurt.

Do you need to specifically remind me of your age?

He is tired, he wants to be quiet.

So much so that he directly found a servant to explain Liu Minghui's affairs, while he returned to the room, wanting to be quiet.

Unexpectedly, God did not intend to let him go.

His little grandson Akamatsu Haruhiko walked in and suddenly shouted that he wanted to eat tempura.

Akamatsu Kosuke didn't realize why his grandson suddenly wanted to eat tempura.

Happily ran to make a pot, but got left out.

Akamatsu Haruhiko cried loudly: "Grandpa, why is the tempura you make not as good as that brother's?"

"Grandpa, is it because you are too old to lose your cooking skills?"

It turns out that when Liu Minghui was preparing tempura, the glutton Akamatsu Haruhiko ran to the kitchen to catch the autumn breeze.

The perfect taste made him unforgettable after eating it once, which is why he clamored for tempura.

But he didn't expect that his proud grandfather could not compete with a young man in the tempura dish.

Akamatsu Kosuke felt that he was hurt by a critical blow.

Although I am not young, but my body is still strong, far from the point where it will affect the level of cooking.

Silly boy, even if your grandpa is young, there is no way he can cook it more deliciously than your so-called brother!
