Chapter 432 Dishes that Don’t Require Cooking
"The complete redemption of the Arhat Crystal Slash skill requires 20,000 points of faith power. Do you confirm the redemption?" In response to Chen Anxia's inquiry, the Gate of Truth quickly responded.
When she saw that Arhat Crystal Slash required 20,000 points of faith power, Chen Anxia couldn't help but change her face slightly. Chen Anxia really didn't expect that redeeming Arhat Crystal Slash would require so much faith power.
You must know that the exchange for the Golden Egg Fried Rice recipe of Glowing Cuisine only requires 1,000 points of faith. This also means that the value of Arhat Crystal Slash is 20 times that of the Golden Egg Fried Rice.
However, considering that Arhat Crystal Slash is a permanent skill after all, and it is also a knife skill, Chen Anxia can accept it.
In Chinese Episode 1, the user of Luohan Crystal Slash, Seven-Star Sword Ren, didn’t know how long it took to master this skill. Chen Anxia only needed to spend 20,000 points of faith power to master it all at once. It’s quite cost-effective when you think about it. of.
During this period of time, Chen Anxia's power of faith has naturally increased by more than 17,000 points. Coupled with the sensation caused at the opening ceremony and the power of faith left behind, Chen Anxia's power of faith can now reach 19,833 points. It is still a little short of the target of 20,000 points of faith power.
However, Chen Anxia is not in a hurry, because at the current rate of natural growth of the power of faith, it will soon exceed 20,000 points, and before that, Chen Anxia must prepare the required ingredients.
That's right, Chen Anxia had less than 15 minutes left. In these 15 minutes, there was not enough time to cook almost any dish.
But what about dishes that don’t require cooking?
That's right, what Chen Anxia is cooking now is a dish that does not require cooking, which is a dish called sashimi in Japanese cuisine. The name of sashimi in China and Korea is sashimi.
Chen Anxia's impression of sashimi is quite deep, because Chen Anxia once heard Chen Suhai talk about it, and she has relatively complete knowledge about sashimi.
Perhaps many people think that sashimi originated in Japan, but in fact, sashimi originated in China. The earliest records of eating fish meat, that is, eating sashimi, were recorded in the Zhou Dynasty. It was later spread to Japan, South Korea, etc. land.
There is an idiom in China called "popular". The earliest origin of this idiom is related to sashimi.
The current month is April. According to Chen Suhai's memory, Chen Anxia happens to know that there is a kind of fish that is suitable for eating during this period, and that is bonito.
In fact, there are two periods when bonito is delicious. One is from March to May, when the bonito is called "first bonito", and the other is from September to November, when the bonito is called "autumn bonito". bonito".
However, the Japanese seem to prefer eating bonito. During the Edo period in Japan, the Japanese were far more obsessed with bonito than autumn bonito. At that time, many people in Edo coveted the deliciousness of bonito.
Therefore, they are very anxious every spring and summer, because the bonito at that time is very expensive and the season is fleeting.
As an important part of Japanese sashimi culture, bonito must be found in this Japanese cuisine classroom, but they are all placed on ice, and it is not known when they were caught.
We all know that when making fish dishes, the selection of fish is also very important, because the taste of fish is different in different periods, and the taste of dead fish and live fish is even different. What Chen Anxia has to do is to choose the best meat. of that fish.
Without hesitation, Chen Anxia directly opened his eyes of truth, applied his analysis and modeling abilities, and added parameters to start the deduction.
Generally speaking, fish should be selected from six angles, namely, fish skin, fish back, fish eyes, fish gills, fish belly, and anal hole.
The skin of fresh fish is shiny, the scales are intact and attached, and there is a small amount of transparent mucus.
The back of the fish is solid and elastic, the eyes are transparent, the cornea is elastic, the eyeballs are full and protruding, the gills are bright red or pink, there is no mucus, no odor, the belly is not bloated, and the anal hole is white and not protruding.
Take these key points mentioned by Chen Suhai as parameters, add them to the model one by one, conduct analysis and comparison, and finally deduce the best fish.
Looking at the deduction results in his mind, Chen Anxia's eyes narrowed, and then he pulled out a bonito from a group of bonitos without hesitation.
Not only the bonito, Chen Anxia also took a lot of ingredients for plating, because the plating of sashimi is very important. Fortunately, Chen Anxia had the memory of Chen Suhai's plating in his mind, so he could use it.
After seeing Chen Anxia's actions, everyone who was secretly paying attention to Chen Anxia couldn't help but frown slightly. Through the ingredients Chen Anxia took, they all knew Chen Anxia's plan.
Indeed, the remaining time now can only be used to make dishes that do not require cooking, but it is too difficult to capture Takeda Asako's tongue with simple sashimi. Maybe only Nagi is present. Kiri Erina is sure to do it.
Of course, Chen Anxia now had no time to pay attention to the doubts of the people around him. Instead, he returned to the cooking area with the selected ingredients and just stood there, as if waiting for something.
On the other side, Nomura Ichikoshi also came to Asako Takeda with Japanese cold soba noodles, took a deep breath, and then placed the Japanese cold soba noodles in front of Asako Takeda with a slight trembling.
Takeda Asako took a sip of tea, then gently put down the teacup, looked at the dishes brought by Nomura Ichigo, still with a warm smile on her face and said, "Oh, there are people making cold soba noodles, so, let's Let me try it."
After hearing Takeda Asako's words, Nomura Ichisuke's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly, but he still took a chance and looked at Takeda Asako with a little expectancy as he picked up the soba noodles and started to taste them.
"呲流~"
The familiar sound of eating noodles sounded again, but this time Asako Takeda did not swallow it directly like she tasted the cold soba noodles made by Nakiri Erina, but chewed it slowly in her mouth for a while.
The next moment, Takeda Asako spit out the cold soba noodles in her mouth without even swallowing. Seeing this scene, Nomura Issue's face turned pale.
Takeda Asako was still squinting her eyes, gently wiping the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief, and said softly, "The soba noodles are not strong enough and not smooth enough. The spicy white onion in the dipping sauce is too strong and ruins the overall taste. There are many other shortcomings, so I won’t go into details one by one.”
Saying that, Takeda Asako had a warm smile on her face, looked at the pale Nomura Ichikoshi and said, "It tastes bad. Are you just giving me food like this? I declare..."
Nomura Ichigo no longer paid attention to Takeda Asako's words, and his whole person was immersed in great despair, as if the whole world had turned black.
This is the power of taste shackles, which can continuously amplify the shortcomings of the same cuisine below it, forming a sharp contrast.
Just when Takeda Asako was about to announce the results, Chen Anxia, who had been silent, suddenly moved and shouted, "Teacher Takeda, please wait a moment, our group will start making the dishes now."
Chen Anxia's words attracted everyone's attention, and they couldn't help showing a look of astonishment on their faces, even Takeda Asako was no exception.
After all, starting to cook now seems too childish to them, considering that there are only 5 minutes left in 2 hours.
Chen Anxia ignored the astonished looks of the people around him and suddenly shouted in his heart, "Gate of Truth, confirm the redemption of Arhat's Crystal Slashing Skill!!"
