Chapter 330: The Same Sukiyaki Pot

In Japan.

Star restaurants recognized by WGO generally have one common feature, that is:

Small!

Some restaurants.

Only have a bar and seats, and some even have only a few tables, and even only one or two chefs.

However, as the restaurant becomes more and more famous, people often come here to visit, resulting in overcrowding and a hard-to-find seat.

So often in Japan, if you want to taste those star restaurants, you usually need to make reservations in advance.

Sometimes you are unlucky and can't even get through the reservation phone number, and what is more difficult is that some restaurants implement a "complete introduction system" and "membership system".

In other words, you must be introduced by a familiar customer to enter the store, and it is useless to make reservations by phone in advance!

…

Nowadays.

There are 12 three-star restaurants in Japan that can be recognized by WGO.

And there are 14 three-star chefs!

Among them, Jiro Ishikawa, a three-star legendary chef who is good at making Sukiyaki hot pot dishes, has now officially settled in the downtown area of ​​Tokyo, Japan with his new restaurant [Sushi].

The restaurant is located in the center of the bustling food city, waiting for diners to explore.

Hmm!

The environment inside the store.

Elegant yet warm, every detail reveals the chef's love and pursuit of food.

His business philosophy is to pursue the flavor of ingredients, and he believes that ingredients are the most important basis for dishes.

Therefore, he insists on using the freshest and highest quality ingredients, and uses simple cooking methods to maximize the taste of ingredients! Using high-temperature stewing is his specialty, ensuring that every dish is nutritious and delicate in taste. !

In his recipes.

Every dish is not isolated.

They are like a symphony, interconnected, and together interpret a feast for taste buds.

Its exquisite plating presents this wonderful movement perfectly to diners, bringing them a full range of sensory enjoyment.

…

Hot pot.

It is named after the "gulp" sound made when food is put into boiling water.

It is a unique delicacy in the Celestial Empire with a long history and is a food suitable for all ages.

Of course, the emergence of hot pot must have a prerequisite, that is, the birth of chopsticks! The types of hot pot are naturally ever-changing, and among them is a dish called Sukiyaki, which is a beef hot pot, but it is very popular in Japan.

Because the late-night cooking incident continued to ferment, the 14 three-star chefs in Japan had to choose to fight against it!

However.

They all lost one after another.

These represent the highest combat power in the Japanese cooking world, and are also strong people recognized and affirmed by WGO.

No one can imagine what their fall will mean.

At this moment.

In this "Sushi" restaurant.

Prepare and cut the ingredients, cut the onion into strips, cut the green onion into sections, cut the mushrooms into crosses, and prepare other dishes according to the amount.

Put a little butter in the pan, add sugar after melting, put the beef in medium and low heat, fry until it changes color slightly, and then continue to sauté the onion.

When this step is done, Jiro Ishikawa took a deep breath.

…

Then.

As a strong meaty aroma drifted out, many people on the scene fell into intoxication.

Even the judge on the scene, Rantabi, who is also the second-class executive officer of WGO, couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Unexpectedly, at this moment.

Another strong meaty aroma also quickly drifted out, which seemed to be evenly matched with this side.

"How could it be?"

"What's the matter with that late-night cook?"

"The two of them started to grill beef?"

"Could it be the same hot pot dish?"

"No way?"

"There are so many coincidences?"

For a moment, the entire lifeless competition venue exploded in an instant.

"Is that so."

"This Caibo Chaoyang is actually copying and reproducing Ishikawa Jiro's Sukiyaki pot dish!"

Squinting her eyes, Rantabi stared at Chaoyang closely, first pondered for a while, and finally she seemed to understand.

…

Ishikawa Jiro was a little shocked when he heard this.

But his eyes tightened, and he continued to cook the sukiyaki pot.

First, brush butter on the bottom of the pot, put the beef slices on it and grill them, and sprinkle a thin layer of sugar on the beef slices. Wait until the beef juice overflows slightly, and the sugar flavor penetrates into the beef.

And then, the most important step is the use of seasonings.

Soy sauce.

Sake.

Mirin.

Soy sauce.

The best ratio of these four seasoning ingredients is 3:3:2:5!

Yes, this ratio is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and this is also the terrifying part of Jiro Ishikawa.

…

Pour the prepared ingredients.

Directly pour it on the grilled beef, and a "sizzling" sound will be heard.

In an instant, with everyone's exclamations, thick smoke rises, and an unspoken fragrance begins to spread around with a sweeping momentum.

"What a strong fragrance..."

"What a fragrance!"

"I'm hungry, as expected of Chef Ishikawa, his cooking is really amazing! "

Sizzle.

Almost at the same time.

At the cooking table in Caibo Chaoyang, bursts of thick smoke also rose, and then an unexplainable fragrance suddenly burst out!

"What?"

Ishikawa Jiro was stunned by this.

There are four seasoning ingredients, but he found the best ratio after countless attempts!

Why?

As a late-night cook, he can also...

"Ishikawa Jiro, everything you do is in vain. No matter what you want to do next, I can already predict it in advance!"

At this time, Caibo Chaoyang seemed to be in a good mood and chuckled.

"Um?"

"you you……"

Ishikawa Jiro, although he had vaguely understood something, he still couldn't accept this fact in the end.

…

The richness of fat beef.

The freshness of vegetables.

The mirin is sweet and fresh.

Together with the bubbles that bubble up when it boils, the fragrance that comes out can always make people intoxicated.

Time passed quickly. Whether it was Ishikawa Jiro or Saiba Asahi, the dishes they cooked were the same, and they were also sukiyaki dishes.

However, the whole process of this battle between shokuji and halberds was extremely exciting.

Whether it is the use and handling of beef, the blending of seasonings, and the heat control of soup, etc., Ishikawa Jiro does everything perfectly.

on the other hand.

Caibo Chaoyang's ability is even more jaw-dropping.

"alright!"

Finally, Ishikawa Jiro put some vegetables into the pot, heated it up, and then added the rest of the ingredients.

A complex sukiyaki is now complete.

Over there, Chaoyang Zaiba also finished cooking the sukiyaki pot.

"He's done too?"

Ishikawa Jiro was obviously stunned for a moment.

This sukiyaki dish was a dish that he put all his energy into. As a result, when he almost finished it, Zaiha Chaoyang also completed the sukiyaki dish.

"After all, it's an imitation. How can it be better than my original work?"

After thinking about it, Ishikawa Jiro murmured to himself.

"Entering the review stage."

As soon as Rantabi finished speaking, Ishikawa Jiro's sukiyaki dish was served first.

Accompanied by the sound of gurgling bubbles and the lingering aroma, Lantabi was inevitably a little amazed inwardly.

…

"Not bad, really good."

Lantabi nodded and said, "Ishikawa Jiro, your cooking skills have improved the most."

"yes."

"Executive officer, this is a new dish I recently developed."

Ishikawa Jiro quickly replied, the expression on his face showed nothing, neither happy nor angry.

Lantabi said yes, then picked up the chopsticks, and put the tender, juicy, clear-textured, red-colored beef upper brain slices into the hot sukiyaki pot under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Then, wait for ten seconds, then dip it in the smooth egg liquid and eat it.

"Huh? This is..."

Suddenly, Lantabi's eyes suddenly lit up, staring at the sukiyaki pot that was still boiling in disbelief.

The entrance couldn't be more amazing, as if it opens the door to a new world.

The sweetness of the sukiyaki pot, the tenderness of the beef, and the smoothness of the egg liquid are simply... a perfect match!

Every bite of this fresh food and exciting taste buds will definitely make people sigh deeply:

in this world.

How could there be such delicious food?

Put a piece of beef into your mouth, then take a sip of the fresh and slightly sweet soup, and then use the ingredients prepared in the best proportion as the base. The sweet beef is wrapped in the smooth egg liquid. This is so delicate that it melts in your mouth. , simply...

delicious!

"Awesome, this sukiyaki dish is simply amazing."

"The thick beef has the aroma of butter. When soaked in egg liquid, the eggs are not fishy at all. They are incredibly delicious and stick to the meat. It not only locks in the deliciousness of the soup, but also adds to the flavor. Tender texture. ”

"Put the tender beef into the pot and absorb the essence of many ingredients. In this moment, the umami flavor of the beef comes to life in your taste buds!"

…

What affects the deliciousness of sukiyaki dishes is the sauce, and as long as this step is done well, everything else doesn't matter.

According to the optimal ratio of 3:3:2:5, the sauce prepared from the four seasonings of soy sauce, sake, mirin, and sashimi has completely transformed this sukiyaki dish.

But with a good soup base, you need fresh ingredients.

beef.

This is the most important part.

The better the quality of the beef, the better the taste of the entire sukiyaki dish.

However, each grade and part has its own flavor. How to choose depends on the financial resources you can afford.

certainly.

For Ishikawa Jiro.

The beef used is naturally the best quality A5 grade Kobe beef.

Coupled with his own superb beef processing technology, the taste of this entire sukiyaki dish has once again been qualitatively sublimated.

All in all, this sukiyaki dish is definitely the sword in Jiro Ishikawa’s hand.

Yes

It was a sword that struck straight into Lantabi's heart.

It was also the weapon with which he, Ishikawa Jiro, attacked Saiha Asahi.

Although they had expected the result, everyone was still slightly surprised when they saw Lantabi devouring the sukiyaki dish.

Those who knew about it thought that Jiro Ishikawa's sukiyaki dish conquered them, while those who didn't know thought that she hadn't eaten for several days and was very hungry!

Finally, in a very short time.

She finished the sukiyaki dish made by Jiro Ishikawa.

…

Rich ingredients and fresh taste!

And it is convenient and quick to make, and the soup is also relatively simple to make.

If you have a small iron pot and a stove, that would be the best.

The first time I dipped the beef in egg liquid, the cooked beef rolled in the egg liquid, smooth and not greasy. I have to say that Jiro Ishikawa's sukiyaki dish is really delicious.

No, I'm afraid that the word "delicious" is difficult to describe this dish.

"Next is your dish."

Finally, Rantabi pretended to cough a few times, then raised his head and looked at Caibo Chaoyang.

So the next moment, Caibo Chaoyang's sukiyaki dish appeared!

As a completely imitated dish, Caibo Chaoyang's Sukiyaki is exactly the same as Ishikawa Jiro's.

From the ingredients, the cooking method and process, the control of the heat and the cooking time, the processing of the beef to the mixing of the sauce... there is absolutely no difference.

Even if you look closely, it is difficult to see any difference.

...

The fragrant beef shoulder.

Lying quietly on the black stone plate, the oil is distributed with obvious texture and beautiful color.

Each piece is of the same size and thickness, which makes people's eyes shine and eager to eat.

Then, dip it in the egg liquid.

As we all know, Sukiyaki must be accompanied by raw eggs. On the one hand, it is used to cool the hot meat, and on the other hand, it makes it taste more tender.

Secondly, beef shoulder is a part of the cow that often moves. It has a rough fiber texture and strong chewiness. It tastes very beautiful with fat.

Roll it in the egg liquid, and it melts in your mouth without biting hard. There is also a strong milky aroma wandering between your teeth. Although it looks thin, it has a distinct crispness when bitten, and there is a "slurp" sound in your mouth, and it is not greasy at all.

"What is going on?"

Suddenly, Rantabi's eyes almost popped out, looking at Caibo Chaoyang's pot of sukiyaki in disbelief.

...

"Why is it like this?"

"Although the beef in this dish is cut very thinly, it is very chewy when bitten."

"And, the moment you bite it with your teeth, all the essence splashes out, catching you off guard."

"This feels great!"

Then, Rantabi still stared at Caibo Chaoyang's sukiyaki.

There is no doubt that this dish, which imitated Ishikawa Jiro's sukiyaki, was beyond her expectations!

Delicious.

So delicious!

At this moment, words like "delicious", "great", "yummy" and so on kept coming up in Rantabi's mind.

Her consciousness gradually became blurred, and finally even her eyes became blurred. She ate the food in big mouthfuls in front of everyone, regardless of the heat! (End of this chapter)
