Food: I was a cartoonist in Totsuki

Chapter 266 Ao Lufa

This time, even Tong Yu didn't expect that the Queen Mother of the West actually walked out of the sedan chair and revealed her true face in Lushan.

Everyone standing at the beacon tower of the Queen Mother of the West could see her appearance clearly... Although Tong Yu had already seen her appearance clearly just now, he could see her more clearly now.

The Queen Mother of the West does not look like a person in her 40s at all. Someone would definitely believe that she looks like a 20-year-old girl.She is still the same as the original plot, because Liu Pleiades' mother, Sun Ball, shows her true appearance in front of everyone.

Zhu Yuan was also extremely surprised in his heart.

"Wha...what, this is really unprecedented. The Queen of the West has never let the chef see her face in the past, but today she actually...and she still has such an innocent expression." Zhu Yuan was surprised in his heart.

The other dragon chefs were also surprised, and others might not believe it.

Except for Zhu Yuan, this was the first time for most of the Dragon chefs to see the Queen Mother's true appearance. They also knew that the reason why the Queen Mother showed her true appearance was because of the dish called "Mother's Sun Ball" in front of them.

The Queen Mother of the West walked out of the sedan chair and came to the table where the food was placed. She took a piece of "omelette rice" cut into small pieces in her hand and took a bite.

"Such a huge omelette rice, the aroma of the egg is completely emphasized in this 253 rice. Every bite of fried rice has finely chopped onions, plus cut into small pieces of abalone, sea cucumber, scallops, Shrimps, shiitake mushrooms, etc. After being fully bathed in the sun, these ingredients bring out the maximum freshness, making them truly top-notch dry goods!" the Queen Mother of the West praised.

After listening to the Queen Mother of the West, Zhu Yuan had a preliminary understanding of Liu Pleiades' cuisine.

"So, is it borrowed from the sun? Because these dry goods have absorbed the warmth of the sun, they are a golden combination that condenses the sun." Zhu Yuan also said.

"The taste is very subtle. A lot of air has been absorbed into this sweet egg, and it feels soft when you bite it, just like eating cotton. Every grain of rice is so soft and not sticky. Together. This irresistible fragrance is exactly the same as the fragrance of the sun."

As the Queen Mother of the West spoke, a look of intoxication gradually appeared on her face. She closed her eyes involuntarily and said, "I still remember when I was very young, wrapped in the soft quilt where my mother slept, and smelled the smell in my nose. It's the warm and fragrant fragrance of the sun. Everyone must have such nostalgic memories. Therefore, this dish is the mother who nurtured the earth and passed down the family line, and the sun's cuisine is worthy of being called the 'mother' Sunball'."

It can be said that the Queen Mother of the West gave Liu Pleiaoxing's dish a very high evaluation, which was better than Huang Yehong's and even Tong Yu's previous dishes.

Tong Yu also nodded secretly in his heart. As expected of the original protagonist, this time the aura of the protagonist has fully come into play. This dish has been highly praised.

Seeing the Queen Mother's expression, Zhu Yuan sighed again.

"The secret to the soft texture and fragrance that reminds the Queen Mother of her mother seems to be eggs and fried rice... Wait, that doesn't seem to be the case."

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuan couldn't help but stepped forward to the Queen Mother of the West and said, "I'm sorry, Queen Mother, please let me take a bite of this food!"

"I agree, you should try it quickly." The Queen Mother said hurriedly.

At this moment, the Queen Mother looked like a diner who had discovered a very delicious dish and wanted to share it with others.

This is the joy of sharing delicious food!

After Zhu Yuan tasted the mother sun ball made by Liu Pleiades, he let out a series of exclamations.

"Uh oh, I really... I can't believe it. The hand that pinches the rice is so gentle and the force is exactly the same. Once you take a bite, it immediately spreads to the entire mouth. The incomparable swelling feeling is hard to imagine that it comes from pinching. It came out, this method is really considerate!”

Zhu Yuan came to Liu Pleiaxing and asked, "Little Master, how did you make this dish?"

The Queen Mother of the West and the other Long Chefs all set their sights on Liu Pleiades, waiting for him to reveal the secret.

Liu Pleiades smiled confidently again, pointed to the sun that had not yet set, and said, "This is because I relied on the 'power' of the sun and the earth."

Then, he pointed to a ravine in the middle of the stone steps of the Great Wall in the distance. This ravine on the Great Wall is also called Xie Mapo.

Xianmapo, next to the city tower, there is usually a sloping passage on the inner eaves wall from the ground to the top of the city wall. It is a passage for people and horses to get off and off the city wall, hence the name.

The horse track is about five to six meters wide, and a one-meter-high earth wall is built on the inner side of the track to serve as a railing.Since the horse paths generally have an incline of about [-] degrees, in order to prevent slipping, the entire path is made of green bricks with their sides facing upwards, with cross-shaped caulking.

Some city walls are higher, and the horse paths are built into secondary steps. Gate towers are also built at the entrances of the ground horse paths. For example, there are spacious horse paths on the north sides of the east and west city towers in Jiayuguan.

Now Liu Pleiaxing is using this terrain to make the Mother Sun Ball dish, which is unique and can only be made on the Great Wall.

"Please look!" Liu Pleiax pointed to the slope in front of him and saw that the slope had been covered with iron plates.

Everyone was stunned for a moment when they saw this.

"What is this? In the blind spot of our sight, on the slope of the Great Wall on the south side, you actually made such a big prop?"

"Yes! I laid an iron plate for fried noodles on the slope of the Great Wall, and put a long cloth soaked in lard on the iron plate. Then I spread the fried rice until it was medium cooked and evenly spread it on the floor. Of course, this long cloth was sewn by my assistant Meili." Liu Pleiaxing said this with a bit of pride.

The slope is covered with iron plates. The iron plates have been heated by the sun, just like a teppanyaki.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuan and others also understood.

"I see, the game starts at the hottest time at noon. The iron plate absorbs heat quickly, so it will get hot as soon as it hits the sun!"

"And because the boiling point of lard is very high, the temperature of the iron plate rises again. Although the slope is not very steep, the lard will not flow down because of the long cloth, and the rice grains will stick to the cloth, making it medium cooked. After the fried rice slowly absorbs the fragrance of the sun, it becomes a fragrant fried rice when it is cooked thoroughly."

"However, most people would never even think of such creative cuisine."

"Well, he is indeed a person highly recommended by Master Longman and Admiral Li. He is indeed capable and promising at a young age."

Chapter 267 The Story of White Snake

Liu Pleiades' dish "Mother Sun Ball" was highly praised by the Queen Mother of the West, and the chefs were also full of praise after tasting it.

Seeing this, a group of Liu Pleiades' friends were also very happy. They believed that the chefs from Danfengmen would be no match for the dishes that could make the Queen Mother of the West reveal her true face.

Therefore, they were all celebrating in advance, thinking that Liu Pleiades would definitely win.

"As expected of the young master, he has made surprising dishes again!"

"'Mother Sun Ball' is really an unexpected dish, and it is also a unique dish that only belongs to the Great Wall!"

Liu Pleiaxing's ignorant little apprentice also clenched his fists and said with a happy look on his face: "Okay, master will definitely win now. Those Sichuan face-changing chefs don't look very good at all!"

Hearing what Shiro said, Tang Sanjie on the side also nodded and said: "Indeed, the young master took advantage of the terrain of the Great Wall to make unique dishes this time. Not to mention the taste is just creative, it is difficult to surpass. But I don't know why. , but the chef at Danfengmen gave me an uneasy feeling..."

"disturbed?"

Hearing Tang Sanjie's words, Ji Di also spoke: "At first I thought it was my illusion, but now it seems that I feel the same way. These two chefs from Danfeng Sect are by no means ordinary. The skill just now is mine." I can’t do it either~.”

……

Going back to an hour ago, under everyone's surprised eyes, the chef of Danfengmen took out a Qinglong knife.

"Ah, Master Ao Lufa suddenly took out a green dragon knife?"

"No...it's not the Blue Dragon Knife, it's a huge kitchen knife. Do you want to use this to cut ingredients?"

Ao Lufa, who was wearing a Sichuan opera face-changing costume, took out a huge kitchen knife that looked like a green dragon knife and waved it on the beacon tower, just like a performance before the start of the Sichuan opera.

After some gestures, another assistant placed several hybrid ducks on the chopping board.

Hybrid ducks are also called mallards in China because they are hybrids of domestic ducks and wild ducks.

The ones with green feathers on their heads are male ducks that have been raised for 90 days. Before 90 days, male ducks are almost the same as female ducks. After 90 days, male ducks have a ring of white hair on their head and neck and green hair on their head.

Except for some subspecies of mallards, such as the Greenland subspecies, Hawaiian subspecies and Florida subspecies, which do not migrate and are resident birds, other subspecies, including well-known subspecies distributed in China, all migrate and are migratory birds.

The spring migration is from early March to the end of March, and the autumn migration is from the end of September to the end of October, sometimes as late as early November.Migration is carried out gradually in batches, especially in autumn, when the migration is most obvious. Often the previous group leaves and another group flies in shortly, and the clusters are larger than in spring. Sometimes, at a mid-migration stopping point, the number of clusters reaches more than a thousand.

Compared with ordinary ducks, hybrid duck meat is firmer and more delicious, and it is very suitable for roasting, stewing, and pan-frying.

Several mallards have been defeathered and eviscerated and now only need the final cut.

At this time, Ao Lufa was seen holding a huge green dragon knife and waving it towards the mallard ducks neatly arranged on the cooking table. Under the surprised eyes of everyone, the ducks were cut up in an instant, and each one was processed. What is perfect.

Seeing this scene, even the chefs in the dark cooking world looked at it in surprise.

Kuaga Teruki, Yukihira Soma, Hishako, Tadokoro, Mimasaku Subaru and others were also surprised.

"This knife skill... I've never seen it before except from Liu Jun!"

"How on earth did he use that big sword that looks like the Azure Dragon Sword? It's simply a miraculous skill."

"It took just a moment to dismantle several ducks, and the chef with superb cooking skills would not cut off the duck meat when disassembling the ducks, but use as few incisions as possible to separate the bones and joints. And he actually used The tip and back of this 'Qinglong Sword' use excellent knife skills, and in an instant..."

This is not the only surprising thing. Ao Lufa's noodle-making skills are also very special, like acrobatics.

The dough quickly turned into long strips in his hands, and at a glance it looked like a white snake climbing a rock.

"White Snake Luo Lian Zhuan? No, it looks different. What kind of dough mixing technique is this!"

"'Hybrid duck' is a cross between a duck and a mallard, symbolizing fruitless love. The dancing dough is a white snake...I seem to understand."

Li Ke stared at Ao Lufa, who seemed to be performing, and said: "This chef named Ao Lufa is performing the 'Legend of the White Snake' in Sichuan Opera!"

"The Legend of White Snake" is one of the four major Chinese folk love legends. It originated from the Luoyang Giant Snake Incident in the Tang Dynasty. It was initially finalized in Feng Menglong's "Warning to the World" in the Ming Dynasty. It became mature and popular in the Qing Dynasty and is a model of Chinese folk collective creation. .

This story describes the tortuous love story between a snake spirit who cultivates human form and a human being.

The story includes plots such as borrowing an umbrella from a tent boat, the white lady stealing Ganoderma lucidum, water flooding Jinshan Mountain, Broken Bridge, Leifeng Pagoda, Xu Xian's son Shilin Pagoda and so on.It expresses the people's praise and yearning for the free love between men and women and their hatred for the unreasonable restraint of feudal forces.

..............

However, now the chef named Ao Lufa is able to use it in cooking. This is also a very good cooking skill and creativity.

Yakan was originally not interested in chefs other than Tong Yu, but after seeing Ao Lufa display such skills, he couldn't help but look at him.

"I see, The Legend of White Snake is a famous script in Sichuan Opera... Speaking of which, there used to be a chef in our dark culinary world who could turn every cooking session into a story." Yakan said slowly.

After hearing this, Li Ke felt confused and asked: "Hey, why don't I know about Yakan and the others? Is there such a person among Chef Lin?"

"That chef left for special reasons before you joined. His strength surpassed all of us in the Five Tiger Stars more than ten years ago and he is the top existence in the Chinese continent."

"Eh?"

While Yakan was talking, Ao Lufa kneaded the dough into a human shape with superb skills.

Wearing a filial piety bun, some plain barium combs stuck by the dark clouds, a white silk shirt with a collar, and a fine linen skirt.

In the blink of an eye, a white lady kneaded from dough appeared in front of everyone, lifelike!

From the dough to the "white snake", and then to the current white lady, it is the process of the thousand-year-old white snake... leaving Mount Emei and becoming human!

Now Ao Lufa has fully demonstrated it with cooking techniques, and he is worthy of being a "story chef"!Down

Chapter 268 Colorful Steamed Noodles

Ao Lufa is nicknamed the "Story Chef", which refers to his ability to incorporate various folk stories and legends into his dishes during the cooking process. According to diners who have tasted his dishes, when tasting his dishes, , can "see" the whole story in the cooking.

Under Ao Lufa's amazing kneading skills, the white lady gradually turned into a lifelike white lady. After careful carving, you can see that the white lady is actually... smiling!

At this time, Tong Yu was still cooking his own food and did not see this scene. Otherwise, he would be surprised if he saw it.

"When the face-changing mask turned into a happy expression, yellow powder was added to the dough, turning the dough into a 'yellow' color!"

"Hey, not only does his face change quickly, but the speed of kneading the dough is also too fast! No...it feels like the dough is also changing his face along with him. How is this possible!"
