Chapter 389

"Please taste it!" Liu Pleiades and Xie Yunlong said to each other.

At this time, Xie Yunlong's black eyes are red in the dark

What Liu Pleiades pushed to Xie Yunlong was a plate of spaghetti with red tomato juice. In the sauce of tomato base, there were also pieces of "meat".

What Jie Yunlong pushed in front of Liu Pleiades was a white steamed bread as crystal clear as jade Or steamed buns!

Xie Yunlong picked up the Western fork, rolled up a wisp of spaghetti, and poked up a piece of meat on the tip of the fork. Liu Lanxing also picked up the white jade steamed bread with chopsticks and sent it to the mouth

Liu Pleiades bite in the moment, a torrent of heat shot to Liu Pleiades mouth, immediately made Liu Pleiades have his mouth full of soup illusion!

Then, whether it's Jindao's "white jade dough" or the fragrant stuffing inside, Liu Pleiades lingers

Yes, it's "fragrance"!

Liu Pleiades immediately felt that the white jade soup dumpling was pure plain stuffing, with the fragrance of asparagus and abalone mushrooms, as well as the mellow smell of beans and bean products, which charged Liu Pleiades' taste.

How about soup dumplings?

Liu Pleiades couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Before, because his opponent was master Xie, Liu Pleiades didn't dare to relax for half a minute, so he didn't pay much attention to master Xie's cooking process. Instead, he had been busy with his "Duoduo Vegetarian Pasta"

Indeed, if you use dead noodles to make steamed buns, then only "pouring soup bags" is more appropriate.

Usually, the skin of steamed buns is made of fermented "hair noodles", and the skin is usually very soft after steaming.

However, the "guantangbao" is obviously an exception. If you use the skin of steamed dough, the result is that the solidified soup will be absorbed by the skin of steamed bun after being heated and melted. Not only does the "soup" not exist, but the skin of steamed bun also becomes moist and has no taste

So "pouring soup bag" usually uses dead noodles, or mixed with hot noodles and hair noodles to make skin.

Compared with pure dead noodles, it is more common to mix dead noodles with hair noodles and hot noodles.

However, for example, Kaifeng soup dumpling is to use pure dead noodles, because the strength of dead noodles can make the skin thinner, and there is no need to worry that the skin of steamed buns will break because of the soup.

What makes Liu Pleiades most puzzled is jieyunlong's "soup"!

The general filling soup bag is to put the soup into a "frozen" shape, or cut the specially made jelly into small pieces, and then put a small piece in each bun. After the soup is frozen in high temperature, the filling soup bag will be filled with liquid soup.

But master Xie's "white jade soup bag", after Liu Pleiades tasted it, he immediately knew that the soup in it would never be the product of meat jelly or soup solidification

That kind of fragrant taste is pure vegetable soup!

And in accordance with the provisions of the title, the use of "meat" is obviously not allowed.

No matter how long the soup is kept, it will not solidify unless it is frozen at a low temperature below the freezing point

However, the use of freezing method will make the soup layered because of different freezing points, so the taste will not be so integrated.

Usually, the authentic guantangbao was made of mutton or beef stuffing. Later, there were also guantangbao made of pork stuffing and three delicacies stuffing.

Rare also has the vegetable stuffing to pour the soup bag, but usually is not worthy of the name!

It's not the solidifying perm made of animal materials in the plain stuffing, or it has no effect of "pouring soup" at all. It's just the ordinary plain steamed buns with high humidity and sufficient moisture in the stuffing.

But Xie Yunlong's "Baiyu guantangbao" is obviously not the case

Because he knows that for the "comfort soul" kitchen heart, it is better to use "fake meat" than "no meat"!

Liu Pleiades's taste and sensitivity to food materials immediately reflected it. He said in secret: so it is! It's cauliflower!

Cauliflower is a kind of algae growing in coral reefs. It is not only used to make pickles and cold dishes fresh and refreshing, but also rich in colloid. It is one of the raw materials used to make "cold powder".

At the same time, the colloidal substances in cauliflower can be dissolved after boiling, and then the liquid can be added into the soup to form the colloidal block of vegetable soup!

Moreover, asparagus and fungi, as the fillings of Baiyu soup dumplings, are not completely "stuffing", but in the state of small "Ding". This is also different from the stuffing of ordinary soup dumplings, which stresses delicacy and toughness

In traditional soup pours, the symbol of the best beef stuffing is to knead a piece of minced beef stuffing, which can be elongated in the hand like dough.

But the stuffing of master Xie's "Baiyu Guantang Bao" can make people feel that they are not eating Guantang Bao, but drinking a bowl of warm asparagus and abalone mushroom soup!

The fragrant asparagus and soft abalone mushroom are chewed in the mouth together with the delicious soup. The unique taste of vegetarianism fills Liu's mind.

I see! Vegetarian meat Because "vegetarian meat" is more harmful to "comfort spirit" than pure vegetarian food, so "vegetarian meat jelly" is used to compare "vegetarian meat" in the title. Later, in the finished product, "vegetarian meat jelly" has become soupLiu Pleiades understood master Xie's idea.

At the same time, I guess that the influence of "vegetarian meat" on jieyunlong should be greater than I imagined, right?

However, now the other party does use the "vegetarian meat jelly" deduction, although there is no vegetarian meat in the final product

enough to play a part of the "soothing" effect. However, judging from the fact that the "dark food duel" did not end on its own, it was indeed recognized by the rules

Liu Pleiades also felt that the fragrance of bamboo shoot mushroom soup, as the stuffing of Baiyu Guantang bag, had a reassuring breath, as if there was a censer burning the soothing fragrance in front of him

The power of "comfort spirit" in vegetarian food is not as good as using meat, but at least better than using vegetarian meat!

In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, when Zhuge Liang returned to Korea after his southern expedition, it was the spirits of the barbarians who died in the southern expedition that confused the river. The purpose of replacing "Mantou" with "Mantou" was to prevent further casualties. Therefore, although "Mantou" was really "fake", it also reflected sincerity

In contrast, the use of "vegetarian meat" as a sacrifice is entirely based on personal likes and dislikes in "going to the grave to burn newspapers", which naturally fails in "sincerity".

The simple use of vegetarian food, although the effect is not as good as the use of meat, but it does not contain the heart of deceit, naturally in the "comfort spirit" play, also better than the effect of vegetarian meat.

While indulging in "Baiyu guantangbao", Liu Pleiades constantly recalled his "Duoduo Vegetarian Pasta"!

The sauce base of Liu Pleiades' golden pasta is similar to Isami's performance in the autumn trials, that is, when cooking the sauce, it does not use a drop of extra water, but uses the juice exuded from the heated tomatoes

However, unlike Isami, Liu didn't use the method of heating directly with high fire to make the tomatoes in the deep soup pot soft and rotten quickly and release tomato juice. Instead, he used low fire to heat them slowly at all low temperatures of 60 degrees.

One is to reduce the sharp taste of tomato juice. The other is that lycopene, which has better scavenging effect on free radicals than carotenoids and vitamin E, will decompose at high temperature and is not suitable for long-term high temperature heating.

After that, the tomato juice is divided into two parts. One part uses the clarified tomato juice to make meat soup, and the other part is used with the soft and rotten tomatoes as the raw material of the final sauce

Xie Yunlong didn't use vegetarian meat directly because of his "comfort spirit" cooking heart, but Liu Pleiades didn't have this kind of restriction. His "source cuisine" and "sun" cooking heart were originally very universal skills!

Both plants and animals will directly or indirectly gain the power of the sun

In particular, as the base of tomato juice, Liu Pleiades deliberately chose.

Tomato is a kind of light loving crop. Although the demand for sunshine is very flexible, abundant sunshine is the guarantee of quality and yield. Therefore, only California, Mediterranean and Xinjiang Inner Mongolia in China are the concentrated producing areas of Tomato in the world!

Tomato base can make the power of the "sun" full of them.

So Liu Pleiades chose the most common way of "vegetarian meat" production, that is to use real meat soup to add flavor to vegetarian meat.

There are five kinds of high soup Liu Pleiades chooses. If he doesn't have enough time, he will probably choose top soup or clear soup

There are five kinds of soup: one is beef soup, which is made of beef and beef bone, with onion, raw chive and star anise; two are chicken soup, see Jiding soup; three are bone soup, which is mainly made of pig bone and chicken bone; four are mutton soup, which is mainly made of mutton, sheep bone and mutton miscellaneous, with Angelica dahurica, cinnamon, caokuo, tangerine peel and almond to balance the fishy smell, and at the same time, it is also delicious Five of them are ham soup. Jinhua ham, which is most suitable for hanging soup, is boiled with Jinhua ham and scallops!

Although Liu Pleiades made spaghetti, he referred to the most orthodox Chinese cuisine in sauce and side dishes Soup!

From the beginning to the end, in addition to the ingredients, we only used natural spices, but did not use the slightest bit of artificial seasonings and ground spice powder. Even salt, we only used the salt in Jinhua ham!

After that, Liu Pleiades prepared to roll different proportions of bean skin, dried bean and bean dregs together, then roll them tightly with sterile gauze outside, and then boil them in the soup.

Five different proportions of bean products rolled into "vegetarian meat", respectively simulate the taste of beef, chicken, pork, mutton and ham, and also soak in five kinds of soup!

Then add another portion of tomato juice, add basil, oregano leaves, thyme and other traditional Italian spices, and cook until the juice is collected. The tomato juice and the soft rotten tomatoes below can be mixed together to present the state of sauce.

Finally, mix five kinds of vegetarian meat with tomato sauce and pour them on the cooked golden spaghetti

This is one of the reasons why Liu Pleiades chose spaghetti instead of traditional Chinese hot noodles. Although "vegetarian meat" has the taste and taste close to meat, their taste is foreign after all. If they are cooked together with noodle soup, the taste will definitely disperse into the soup, and if they use those high soup directly, the taste will be heavier!Therefore, what Liu Pleiades can choose is not to cook the "vegetarian meat" after it is finished.

Spaghetti can be served directly with sauce, and Liu Pleiades adds part of tomato juice to the soup, so even if the flavor of "vegetarian meat" has not been cooked together with the sauce on the back tomato base, it can also carry each other harmoniously

If Xie Yunlong's "soothing spirit" is to appease the dead, then Liu Pleiades's "sun" is to nourish the living!

The five kinds of "plain meat" pasta have innumerable changes in taste due to different combinations. In Xie Yunlong's mind, it has constructed a scene of countless creatures living in the world under the sun, full of the meaning of thousands of frost competing for freedom

Life and death, this moment in the heart of Liu Pleiades and Xie Yunlong, constantly rotating.

The weakness of "Weiling" kitchen spirit in the cooking duel is revealed again.

Although the bailuo family's recipes are delicious for ordinary people to taste, the feeling brought by the "soothing spirit" cooking heart is also loved by many emperors

But in the "food duel", if you encounter more energetic and vibrant food, "comfort spirit" kitchen heart effect will fall into a disadvantage!

Of course, even if ordinary cuisine people have vitality, they can't be the rivals of Xie Yunlong It's just that in this way, it's easier to disperse the emotion aroused by the "comfort spirit" in people's heart.

For example, in the period of "China" in those years, when Xie Lu was on the loulin ship against Logan, Xie Lu's "golden smile" was to a large extent taking advantage of Logan!

Xie Luna is inclined to the kitchen spirit of exuberance, which suppresses the effect of Logan's "soothing spirit" kitchen spirit

This kind of suppression is not due to restraint. In fact, the two attributes of kitchen spirit are relative, not mutually exclusive. The reason for this effect is that the judges are also living people!

If we ask them to calm down the grievances in southern Xinjiang, it is estimated that a few "golden smiles" will go on, and the whole river will be boiling with half of the "giggle" laughter.

Now this duel of "life and death" reappears in the hearts of Liu Pleiades and Xie Yunlong

At the same time, in terms of the legendary kitchenware, Liu Pleiades speculated that Xie Yunlong should now be able to use the magic Saint bronze ware, which has become a "curse kitchenware"

However, there are no dry ingredients that need to be soaked in Liu's cooking room, and the "dead noodles" also prohibit the fermentation of noodles, leaving no room for the "perfect reproduction" and "double accumulation" effect of magic bronzes!

On the contrary, Liu's role in the "greedy wolf pot" absorbed by the "dragon jade dragon pot" is still there after the final duel with Paul. After Liu's design of bean products that can give full play to the shape of meat taste, he uses the power of the "greedy wolf pot" to cut perfectly

It can be said that after having the power of "greedy wolf pot", Liu's Dao skill can only be described as uncanny. Before, Liu's Dao skill was slightly inferior to that of Xie Yunlong and Lin Yi, but now it has surpassed that of others!

Even so, Liu's overall cooking skill is undoubtedly lower than Xie Yunlong's, but at the beginning, he abandoned the old Shu man's noodles who knew Yunlong and all the skills of using "Fa mian". Later, he used "vegetarian meat" to limit the exertion of "Wei Ling" kitchen spirit, which greatly narrowed the gap between the two!

It's like a repetition of the pastry battle on the loulin warship. Xie Yunlong's "white jade soup bag" seems to have the power to appease all the dead, while Liu Lanxing's "multiple Vegetarian Pasta" focuses on praising all the living in the world

Finally, when Liu Pleiades opened his eyes, he saw the surrounding environment, a little bit returned to normal, and master Xie's strong body slowly shriveled back.

As the sequelae of "Xiuxian", green tendons and red eyes have disappeared, but the black circles of the eyes are only a little dimmer, and the face is pale, with a perfect look No, it's exhausting.

Yes, just now, both Liu Pleiades and Xie Yunlong got their own answers in their hearts!

Under the bias of various objective conditions, the praise of the living surpasses the comfort of the dead

Seeing master Xie suddenly shaking, as if he was about to fall down, Liu Pleiades quickly ran to master Xie and hugged him.

"How old are you? Are you all right? "

Thinking of the scene that Paul fainted directly after the failure of "dark cuisine duel", Liu can't help worrying about it!

You know, it was Liu Pleiades who was trying to restrain himself. If Liu Pleiades lost, it would not be as simple as fainting.

But now Paul is not young either, but he is more mature than the master. Besides, he is a very good man Cough, it's the phenomenon of exhaustion. It's very dangerous when it comes to old people!

Suddenly Liu Pleiades saw that Xie Yunlong's eyelids moved, and quickly said, "Jielao? Would you like me to take a pen with you? You should write your will first So as not to explain it later! "

"Do you believe in leaving a death message and drawing the stars of the Pleiades?" Xie Yunlong said.“……”

It turns out that master Xie is at least one year older than Paul, but in terms of physical fitness, Paul may not be as good as master Xie!

To make sure that master Xie is OK, Liu Pleiades also gave up the thought of remembering the more than 800 episodes of Conan he had seen and helping him forge an alibi.

After all, Liu Pleiades doesn't know whether the death in the "dark cuisine duel" is a miscarriage

"Yes! Jielao, if there's nothing wrong, can I have a look at your "magic bronze ware" Liu Pleiades said suddenly.

Because Xie Yunlong had no chance to use the ability of "magic bronze ware" before, and Liu Lanxing's "dragon jade dragon pot" did not include the function of "magic bronze ware".

Although Xie Yunlong has just lost, he doesn't seem to have any psychological burden

After all, he has lived through an era, and he has seen through the winners and losers. If there is no "Curse" effect, he doesn't care about these at all.

This is also one of the reasons why he found that he had a "heart of seeking victory" in Liu Pleiades because of the existence of "soul comforting" kitchen mind. He suddenly felt that it was an incredible thing, and then doubted his own state.

Xie Yunlong is also very surprised that he can use the real power of "magic Saint bronze ware". It seems that these dragon chefs are also a blessing in disguise

But still some worry said: "now I really have cleared the curse, right?"

"It should be like this. According to master Xu Ling, it is like this..."

"Can you transfer your dragon pattern jade dragon pot?" Xie Yunlong asked seriously.

"Unfortunately, it's not And I'm not going to "transfer" this responsibility. " Liu Pleiades shrugged.

It is obvious that Xie Yunlong, like the "two" Liu Pleiades, also has extraordinary self-confidence. He believes that his success rate against other dragon chefs will be higher than others.

Even if he just lost to Liu Pleiades, he did not shake Xie Yunlong's confidence.

Not to mention this victory or defeat, it was originally formed under the bias of many objective conditions. Even if we do not consider the objective conditions and subjectively understand Yunlong, or the self-confidence of all the top cuisine people, we can not shake the victory or defeat once or twice.

"Jielao Please explain to me about other dragon chefs! " Liu Pleiades said suddenly.

Before Paul's mental state was not very good, and his usual communication with other dragon chefs was limited to communication, not so good as to learn from each other. Although Paul was able to become a dragon chef, there was no doubt about Paul's "greed" for cooking, when he became a dragon chef and the president of the Michelin food Federation, he was doomed to have no chance to learn from others Less.

Jieyunlong is different

This product has been wandering around the world for decades Liu Pleiades believes that while caring for the younger generation of women, he will also find some famous chefs to compare their cooking skills!

Liu Pleiades has asked Paul similar questions before. Paul's answer is that he is not clear about other people, but he says that Xie Yunlong is his most uncertain opponent

Because when he just became a dragon chef, Xie Yunlong once fought with him anonymously in private. Although it was not long before Paul became a dragon chef, he now recalls that Xie Yunlong should be very strong at that time!

"Other dragon cooks? In fact, I knew them before they became dragon cooks Besides Lin Yi and Cheng Ichiro, after they became dragon cooks, I also had a competition with them. Especially Lin Yi, I often talked with him. " Xie Yunlong said.

Seeing Liu Pleiades nervous, Xie Yunlong said: "don't be nervous, but don't be too optimistic As a matter of fact, after becoming a dragon chef, everyone's strength is almost the same. At most, they develop in the "width" of cuisine! If you can beat Paul and me, theoretically you have the strength to beat other dragon cooks At the same time, it is possible to lose to any dragon chef! "

"You are not modest, are you? I heard President Paul say that he said He is most uncertain... "

"Yes! At most, there are different degrees of "uncertainty" between any dragon chef! " Xie Yunlong said.

After that, Xie Yunlong also spent an afternoon to introduce to Liu Pleiades the basic characteristics of Lin Yi and Cheng Yilang's cooking skills. It can also be seen that Xie Yunlong's physique is really better than Paul's, and he even made some wine and dishes to eat, drink and talk with him

However, at four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Pleiades began to lose his mind again. Xie Yunlong, who knew the reason, did not urge him, but drank by himself.

Until Liu's cell phone rings
