Shokugeki: Start with an izakaya, making everyone cry

Chapter 142 Map of the Red Sea Snapper Continent

For "meat" eaters.

This dish made from pure vegetables may not have that rich taste!
However, in the eyes of vegetarians, this French cuisine with different vegetables and different textures on each layer is very interesting.

In fact.

Tian Suohui is just a "vegetable insect".

I can't live without vegetables all day long, especially those seasonal dishes.

This can be known from the fact that her area of ​​expertise in cooking is local cuisine, and also from the fact that she has a vegetable garden behind Jixingliao!
In the original residential training activities, she relied on her various understandings of vegetables and was called:

Zashiki Warashi who has legumes (vegetable dishes)!
……

"Hmm~"

Cut a small piece of vegetable jelly and put it in your mouth.

As long as you chew it carefully, there will be a sweet vegetable aroma that constantly impacts your soul.

Sweet and slightly sour at the same time.

As for the entrance, it feels very smooth, soft and bouncy.

Although the outside is soaked in flavor, the various vegetables inside are still fresh and tender.

The cold and umami taste, every time it reaches the surface of the tongue, the vegetable flavor in the mouth easily melts away in the mouth.

And when it falls into the belly, a comfortable warm feeling rises, which makes people feel wonderful!
Involuntarily, Tian Sohui let out a faint moan of ecstasy.

Afterwards, her weak body suddenly tensed up, as if she was trying desperately to suppress the delicious shock coming from her heart!
Eventually, she just couldn't take it anymore.

He started eating like crazy and quickly finished the entire plate of rainbow vegetable jelly in a few clicks.

After the meal, there was no greasy taste in my mouth, and I felt a rare sense of comfort and calmness.

……

gradually.

Tian Suo Hui felt that the scene in front of him was changing.

What the eyes see is no longer this brightly lit izakaya, but a lush mountain forest.

There are clouds and mist here, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there is always a fresh earthy smell in the air.

Looking up a little, there is a field among the mountains and forests.

The place is already covered with all kinds of vegetables, and the amazing thing is that they are all growing neatly and uniformly, as if it is a beautiful landscape carefully arranged by nature!

They thrive under the blowing of mountain wind and bathed in sunshine and rain.

among them.

There are green lettuces.

There are bright red tomatoes.

Carrots have a big head and a small tail.

……

These vegetables are so colorful.

It's like an undulating rainbow, extremely charming.

Even if there is a wisp of breeze blowing by, you can still feel the fragrance and sweetness of vegetables, constantly coming from all directions.

Finally, Tadokoro came to her senses completely.

There was surprise in her expression, but more of it was filled with happiness.

"Awesome, really awesome!"

"It's obviously just a very ordinary vegetable jelly, ice cold."

"The taste is surprisingly delicious, and it even gives people a warm feeling when eating it!"

"It feels like I'm falling into my mother's arms."

Finally, Tadokoro said excitedly.

There seemed to be a faint blush on that pretty and lovely face at this moment.

It was only now that she felt that her heart had been touched by something.

After all, according to her knowledge, it is very difficult to make a real rainbow vegetable frozen dish, because the original flavor of various vegetables must be preserved to the maximum extent.

Human beings are highly sensitive to meat, which is far stronger than vegetables.

This is based on the ability to recognize "high-efficiency" nutrients, and this ability is instinctive.

Therefore, in order to achieve the blending and excitement of various vegetables and bring out the most beautiful taste, the chef himself needs to have a very sophisticated fire control technology.

Obviously, she is definitely far inferior to Zhang Fan in this aspect.

Of course, what's more important is that she can feel Zhang Fan's emotions and the warm power in this dish!

……

"that……"

"I seem to have eaten allspice in this dish?"

Then, Tasokoro asked weakly.

Zhang Fan nodded and replied softly: "Yes, it's allspice."

"Because the so-called vegetable jelly is not much different from the Chinese fish jelly."

"The premise of freezing is soup. Only delicious soup can form delicious and elastic freezing."

"In order to eliminate the odor in the soup and improve the overall taste of the dish, I added allspice."

Allspice, the English word is All spice
Even in the West, when many people hear the word, they mistake it for a spice blend.

Actually it's not, it's just a spice.

The reason why it is called that is because of the aroma of allspice.

It contains the aroma of various spices such as cloves, cinnamon, pepper, nutmeg, juniper berries, etc.

As someone who specializes in local cuisine, Tadokoro Megumi certainly hasn’t done much research on these spices.Therefore, after listening to Zhang Fan's explanation, her eyes suddenly brightened.

……

"Tasoko, the most important thing about rainbow vegetable jelly."

"It is necessary to maintain the original flavor of various vegetables, so the quality of vegetables is actually related to the taste and texture of the entire dish!"

"So, if you can only use wilted vegetables under certain conditions, how do you solve it?"

"Hey?"

"I...I don't know!"

Upon hearing such a difficult question, Tian Suo Hui was immediately stumped!
"An easy way to do this is to mix salt and vinegar in water and then soak the wilted vegetables in the water."

"As for the time, 20 minutes is usually enough."

“The vegetables will become fresh and juicy again and no longer look wrinkled.”

"Oh!"

"So simple?"

Tian Suohui, some enlightenment.

Seeing her half-understanding expression, Zhang Fan could only smile and say nothing.

I hope that the cooking incident with Kojiro Shinomiya will not happen during the residential training activities in the near future.

"Anyway, it's just a training camp, there's no need to panic."

"You have to remember, no matter how bumpy the road ahead is."

"Always maintain the original intention of showing the gentle side of cooking to everyone, and you will have nothing to fear!"

Finally, Zhang Fan spoke earnestly.

"I see, owner."

"Sure enough, when I'm in a bad mood, coming to talk to you is the right choice."

Tian Suohui, as if inspired, couldn't help but nodded in response.

If a person has troubles, he needs to talk.

Then it is nothing more than wanting to gain recognition, or to get comfort, or to seek solutions to problems!

And the person who can talk to her must occupy an important position in her heart.In other words, after getting along several times, Tian Suohui has become more and more dependent on Zhang Fan.

This kind of dependence is actually the same as Nakiri Shinagi and Nakiri Erina, two people with the ability of God's Tongue, who cannot get rid of his cooking.

It will become more intense as time goes by!
……

The night is getting deeper and darker.

Because it was already past the closing time of the izakaya, Tadokoro didn't dare to stay too long.

After eating the rainbow vegetable jelly and chatting with Zhang Fan for a while, she got up and left the izakaya.

"Ding dong!"

"Congratulations to the host for successfully signing in."

"Ding dong!"

"Congratulations to the host for successfully obtaining the special recipe Sea Bream Continent Map, Magic Mapo Tofu, ingredients Sea Bream*20, and ordinary kitchen utensils Sparrow*1 Spatula!"

"What? There are two special recipes?"

Looking at today's sign-in reward, Zhang Fan was a little confused.

You know, the so-called sea bream continent map.

It was Liu Pleiades who was having a sea bream cooking showdown with Renn for a legendary kitchen utensil.

In the plot of the original work, Lane quickly made ultra-thin sashimi, fishing shabu-shabu and other dishes.

The knife skills he displayed shocked everyone at the time.

Liu Pleiaxing, on the other hand, used a real snapper without hesitation and used the four cuisine methods of Chinese cuisine to make a dish in the shape of a map of the Celestial Dynasty.

Moreover, there are exactly four areas: east, west, north, south!
The north represents Beijing cuisine.

The east side represents Shanghai cuisine.

The west side represents Sichuan cuisine.

The south represents Cantonese cuisine.

The magic of this real sea bream dish is that it contains the four major cuisines of Chinese cuisine.

It can be said that it combines the mainstream tastes from all over the East, West, North and South of China!
……

Then, there’s the Magic Mapo Tofu.

Generally speaking, Tianchao’s Mapo Tofu has five flavors in one.

But this dish is different. It has six flavors: spicy, fragrant, colorful, hot, crispy and numb.

Compared with ordinary Mapo Tofu, there is an extra kind of soybean made into minced meat, which is then fried to give it a "crispy" flavor, so it is called Magic Mapo Tofu.

The creator of this dish is Liu Pleiades’ mother, Master Abe.

In fact, here in Neon Country, there is also a centuries-old habit of eating tofu.

However, anyone who knows Neon Country should know that they are not very good at spicy food.

But they all think that the classic Sichuan dish Mapo Tofu is the best dish in the world to go with rice.

The soft and tender tofu, coupled with the spicy and rich seasoning, will whet your appetite after one bite. The taste is indeed wonderful!

So to this day, Chinese restaurants in Neon Country are springing up everywhere.

It is estimated that there are more than 60000 Chinese restaurants in the entire Neon Country.

And regardless of the main cuisine, almost all diners are provided with mapo tofu.

Therefore, don’t blame Totsuki Academy.

Teruki Kuga, who is currently the eighth seat of the Ten Elites, will introduce Chinese cuisine to spicy and spicy flavors!

For Zhang Fan, this special recipe of Magic Mapo Tofu may be an important dish that can attract the attention of many diners.

Of course, when it comes to quality, the Sea Bream continental cuisine must be superior.

"Very good, that's it."

“This izakaya has more choices for diners.”

Zhang Fan couldn't help but mutter to himself.

……

"Ding dong!"

"Publish new tasks."

"Since the izakaya has been re-upgraded, business is gradually booming."

"Please host to increase the guest flow of the izakaya to 48 people within 500 hours."

"500? On average, 250 people a day?"

"The operating hours of this izakaya are only 5 hours a day. Does that mean we have to entertain 1 people in one hour?"

After hearing the mission issued by the system, Zhang Fan could not help but rub his temples after doing some mental calculations.

Ugh!
I really can’t stop for a moment!

After thinking about it, Zhang Fan put away his complicated emotions, stretched and ran to take a bath.

When night falls, the sky gradually becomes deep and dark.

The moon hanging in the night sky quietly uses its own light to illuminate everything in the world.

After taking a shower, Zhang Fan did not go to bed. Instead, he sat on the balcony on the second floor, drinking scented tea and admiring the night view.

It has been almost two months since I came to this world.

For him, who has lived in two lifetimes, this time is not very long.

But since running this izakaya, many interesting things have happened every day.

Maybe it was just what he thought when he came here.

I have accidentally traveled through time, so why not live a good life and do the things I like.

Nakiri Erina, Nakiri Managi, Kobayashi Goutou, Tagokoe, Nakiri Alice, Kikuchichi Sonoka, Akane Kubo Momo... When the figures of these people appeared in his mind one by one, he I couldn't help but sigh.

Perhaps, in this strange world, he is no longer so lonely!
……

Gollum!

Gollum!

at this time.

Mu Jiuzhi stood by the balcony on the second floor of Chunguo Pavilion, drinking alone.

The sound of her drinking instantly broke Zhang Fan's thoughts and brought him back to his senses.

"Na! Shopkeeper Zhang."

"You...do you want a bite too?"

"Although the wine here is not as good as the one in your izakaya, the wine tastes pretty good."

Noticing Zhang Fan who was also on the balcony, Mu Jiuzhiyuanguo raised his hand, shook the bottle in his hand, and said to him.

"What? Are you worried?"

After continuing to drink the scented tea, Zhang Fan couldn't help but ask with a smile.

When Mu Jiuzhi heard this, his expression suddenly became very depressed, and he said: "Don't mention it, I am... really upset when I mention it!"

Running a restaurant on your own is not as easy as you think.

She vaguely remembers that before opening this Chunguoting restaurant, she had done a lot of preparation work, from funding, restaurant positioning, location selection, to decoration, determining suppliers, etc...

She has been busy for more than two months.

Then, from the day when Chun Guo Pavilion opened, she would get up early almost every day and go to the market to purchase ingredients.

Although it is impossible to be so busy that you will have back pain or something like that, it is normal to work all year round.

Fortunately, hard work paid off. After only one year of operation, her restaurant was finally recognized by the WGO Food Organization and successfully received one star.

And she herself has also begun to make a name for herself in the catering industry!

Originally, this was a "good" beginning, but unexpectedly it turned out to be an end.

How fast I climbed back then, how hard I fell now.

Not only did he fail to achieve his goal of reaching two stars this year, he was also told by Shina Nakiri that he must make changes within a year.

Otherwise, this Chunguoting Western-style restaurant will lose its star next year!
