Shokugeki: Start with an izakaya, making everyone cry

Chapter 60 Beyond all chefs

night!
Very quiet very quiet!

All scenery is shrouded in darkness.

Whether it's shooting stars streaking across the sky or sparkling lakes, these nighttime views always make people linger.

At this time, Erina Nakiri did not come to the izakaya.

I hid in the kitchen alone and started trying to make shrimp dumplings!

She tightly wrapped the inner ingredients and the essence of the shrimp brains with two different layers of dumpling wrappers, then put them in a steamer and steamed them over low heat!

When the time is right, quickly turn off the fire.

then.

Stretching out his hand, he opened the steamer!
And when the steam oven was uncovered, the water mist inside bloomed like fireworks, instantly covering the entire kitchen.

As a strong fragrance burst out, Erina began to look forward to it more and more, but unfortunately, no dazzling light appeared, and no miracle happened.

The crimson "dragon" just lay in the steamer, lifeless.

Not to mention the Shenglong dumplings made by Zhang Fan, which can soar into the clouds and "fly" into the air!

"Ugh!"

"Can't you?"

Seeing this, Erina's expression turned a little disappointed.

……

Unexpectedly.

The voice just fell.

The tail of the shrimp, no, the tail of the dragon, actually moved slightly.

This slight change in details naturally couldn't escape Erina's sharp eyes. She couldn't help but feel happy: "Okay, it's finally moving!"

"Hey?"

"Why is the tail hanging down again?"

In desperation, Erina gritted her teeth in anger and could only use chopsticks to "destroy" this failed work.

Although there are two different layers of dumpling wrappers, they are both looming and very beautiful.

Coupled with the exquisite pleats, plump shape and delicious and smooth filling, this Sholong dumpling dish is made very delicately in Erina's hands, with every detail reshaped!
Take a bite.

There is fresh and sweet juice inside.

Wrapped in shrimp meat, it’s an unspeakable enjoyment!

Even my appetite in the middle of the night was completely whetted by this bite of shrimp dumplings, which is endlessly memorable!
How to wrap as much filling as possible with two limited kinds of embryonic skins and make them extremely thin and transparent is the biggest difficulty in making Shenglong dumplings.

Zhang Fan, who has rich experience, will use high-quality Chengfen and all-purpose flour, combined with exquisite cooked leather craftsmanship.

Let the shrimp dumpling skin slowly wake up in the steamer, stretch your body as much as possible, and finally show the shocking picture of a dragon soaring in the clouds and riding in the mist!
"Ugh!"

"Every time."

"Obviously they use the same ingredients and follow the same method, but the result is that his cooking cannot be perfectly replicated!"

After eating, Erina put down her chopsticks and sighed deeply.

She was a little discouraged. Now it seemed that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't catch up with Zhang Fan.

Thinking about it, relying on the ability of God's Tongue over the years, she has a very important position in the entire cooking world.

As the eldest daughter of the Nakiri family, she is also extremely talented in cooking and can even be ranked among the best in Totsuki Academy!
However, Zhang Fan appeared.

Her thoughts often become very complicated.

On the one hand, I like him... the cooking he makes, but on the other hand, I am very afraid of him, afraid that he will shake the belief that I have worked hard to uphold all these years!
……

different people.

Different countries and regions have different opinions on different cuisines!
Therefore, there is also a chain of contempt in the culinary world.Take food ingredients as an example. Some ingredients are considered to be more high-end than others, such as:

Imported meat and seafood are often more high-end than local ingredients, and black truffles, caviar, foie gras, etc. are also more precious.

In addition, organic vegetables and fruits without pesticide residues are also considered to be healthier and more advanced!
Second.

From a cuisine perspective.

Some cuisines are also considered to be more delicious than others.

For example, in many people’s minds, French cuisine is better than British cuisine!

Personally speaking, a first-class executive like Anne would definitely disdain the low-priced dishes at roadside food stalls.

Of course, Erina Nakiri despised civilian cuisine when she first appeared on the scene, which is even more canonical.

In fact, even chefs like Zhang Fan sometimes despise other chefs because of their superb cooking skills.

In short, to be honest, the chain of contempt does exist, but this Wensi tofu with simple ingredients really conquered Anne!
"Shopkeeper!"

"Perhaps you already know my identity."

"But I still want to tell you that I am the current first-class executive officer of the WGO Food Organization, and I am also the secretary next to Nakiri Managi, Anne!"

"The Wensi Tofu you made is not within the scope of my review, but it is the most delicious dish in my life!"

Then, after wiping away her tears, Annie slowly began to calm down, then raised her head and said to Zhang Fan.

"It doesn't matter if he is an executive or not!"

"Anyone who comes to my izakaya is just a diner in my eyes, nothing more!"

Zhang Fan replied to Annie with a smile.

"Shopkeeper, let me tell you the truth."

"Regardless of other factors, judging only by the quality of this Wensi tofu, you definitely have the ability to be a three-star restaurant chef!"

"No, the chefs from those 72 three-star restaurants are completely inferior to you in their cooking."

"I think that if it is the time of the actual review, it would not be too much to award you the sole status of a four-star restaurant chef."

"After all, as far as I know, no one in this world can cook better than you!"

"what?"

"Chef of a four-star restaurant?"

Next to him, Kichizono Guo, who started to play the role of a passerby, was shocked again!

……

To know.

There is a big difference between a three-star restaurant chef and a three-star restaurant chef.

After all, a three-star restaurant can never have only one chef, but there must be a difference in strength between chefs, so these are two concepts!
As for the chef, naturally speaking, he must be the most powerful one!
at the same time.

WGO Food Organization.

Every year, the results of restaurant reviews by all executives are updated in the "THE·BOOK" food evaluation book in Anne's hand.

Among them, so far, there are only 72 three-star restaurants, 1028 two-star restaurants, and 4421 one-star restaurants recorded by "THE·BOOK"!
So it is conceivable that a restaurant that can be recognized by the WGO Food Organization can represent the highest level of restaurant operation and quality in the world!
However, restaurants that receive star ratings may not necessarily continue to prosper in the catering industry.

There are also some star-rated restaurants that have closed down due to poor management and declining reputation.

but!
Anyway.

Even if it is the lowest one-star rating.

For many chefs, it is the greatest honor in life!
But the result?

As soon as Zhang Fan made a move, he immediately conquered Annie.

And in her evaluation, she also believed that Zhang Fan has the ability to surpass all three-star restaurant chefs!
This shocked Mujiu Zhiyuanguo deeply, and he could not calm down for a long time.

At this moment, she realized that there were some things that others could easily get, but she had to struggle her whole life to get them!
