Chapter 1076
"Wow--" The audience and judges were stunned. That seemingly frail young man was so bold? Cooking a dish like roasted whole beef in the semi-finals?
"What a sharp contrast in body shape..." Dojima Gin looked at the sharp contrast between the big bull and the delicate boy with great interest. In order to spread the roasting oil and sauce evenly, he walked around the entire The grill went back and forth.
Drinking wine and eating meat is the romance of a man wandering on the sea! Isn't it more appropriate for a dish like roasted whole beef to be cooked by a fat chef with big muscles and a round waist, and the fat on his face trembles when he talks and laughs? The slender boy in front of me doesn’t match that picture at all!
"Looking at it, I feel like that boy is working so hard."
"It's all sweaty. It's really too forced."
The audience's words made Isshiki Hui, Yoshino Yuki and others who were familiar with Yang Ming on the stage couldn't help but show a hint of wavering. Yes... Yang Ming, wouldn't he use that art-like dish to challenge? Roast whole beef...what is this?
Only Jun Imusaki remained calm and looked at Yang Ming quietly on the field. Sitting in the audience, he seemed to be able to see the flames reflected in Yang Ming's eyes.
"Come on..." He said silently in his heart.
"But it's very interesting. There are so many ingredients to choose from, but both of them chose beef as the main course." Fuyumi Mizuhara said at the judges' table.
"To be honest, I have never eaten a dish like roasted whole beef..." Miki Hinatako said with half-empty eyes. After all, in Japan, beef is usually sold piecemeal in supermarkets and butcher shops, and it is difficult to buy a whole cow. Yang Ming also asked Erina to buy this cow.
But at this time, Erina looked a little strange, "Is it actually a roasted whole beef..."
When Yang Ming asked him to ask for help before, he didn't say in detail what he wanted to use it for. He just said that he needed a cow that was not too big, preferably suitable for barbecue. He thought it was Yang Ming who wanted it. If you study the various parts of beef and grill them, which part is more delicious...
Who knew that I would see a whole cow being roasted here today?
"Well, contestant Yang Ming is now scratching the surface of the beef with a knife. I think this is to allow the flavor of the sauce to penetrate more."
When grilling meat, use a knife to cut a little along the texture of the meat to allow the flavor of the seasonings to penetrate deeply. This is known to everyone present.
It's just that Yang Ming's movements with the knife were so elegant, and his dancer-like posture made people couldn't help but lock their eyes on him.
"It really looks like a French chef." Gin Dojima praised, "It's gorgeous yet powerful. This image alone is enough to make people look forward to what kind of dishes he will cook."
It's just that... French cuisine has always been famous for its nobility, classicness, and finesse. Dishes like roasted whole beef are impossible to appear in the hands of French chefs.
As Yang Ming continued to cut, the essence inside the beef was slowly developed. Under the blazing flames, the scarlet color gradually spread to the depths, transforming into a deep crimson. The texture on the beef is also very clear, like the stone patterns on marble.
"It can be seen that Contestant Yang Ming's dishes should remain in this state for a while. Let's see what Contestant Xingping is doing now, shall we? Oh... He has now taken out a bunch of various dishes. beef?"
The host obviously knows the secret skill of how to mobilize the audience's attention. After realizing that staring at Yang Ming may cause aesthetic fatigue, he timely turned the scene to Yukihira Soma.
"Cheek meat! Beef tongue and honeycomb! Fin meat!" The host quickly recognized the meat cut from various parts of the cow. "He kept taking out the meat from various parts!"
"Contestant Yukihira's red wine stewed beef is still cooking in the pot, so what is the beef used for?"
This time, without waiting for the host to ask, Dojima Gin started explaining on his own initiative.
"It's for side dishes." Dojima Gin looked down and said, "'Red wine braised beef' is a simple stew. If there are no matching decorations, just the sauce and beef will look very monotonous. "
"These meats should be used as decorative side dishes. I think the reason why various parts of the cow are used is to enrich the texture and flavor of the "Red Wine Braised Beef" dish. "
Yukihira Souma's fighting spirit seemed particularly high. He had cared about Yang Ming's big oven and the intact cow from the beginning. Unlike Yang Ming, who was told in advance that he would use "red wine stewed beef" to challenge, Soma Yukihira knew nothing about Yang Ming's cooking.
However, Yang Ming seems to have been busy studying cooking these past few days, but... to his surprise, he ended up roasting a whole beef to challenge?
"That's really unfortunate..."
The misfortune he was talking about was naturally Yang Ming's misfortune.
"The biggest selling point of roasted whole beef is the flavor of the barbecue. The most important thing is that you can taste the deliciousness of all parts of the beef in one dish, right?"
"Sorry, we crashed."
Beef tongue! Boil it in water until the outside becomes hard, then peel it off, then color it with smooth butter and refreshing olive oil!
The cheek meat is marinated with parsley, red wine, and laurel, then seasoned with salt and pepper, and then sprinkled with a layer of wheat flour and baked!
After the beef fin is cooked in the pot, put the pot and the oven in the oven, set the temperature to 180 degrees, and bake at high temperature for an hour!
There are also charcoal-grilled pork belly, chopped radish, onion, and ham, then stir-fried and stewed in butter...
"So... so fast!" Mizuhara Fuyumi was surprised when she saw Souma Yukihira's speed.
Yukihira Souma appeared in every corner of this cooking table with a jaw-dropping speed like the wind. As if he had practiced it countless times, he processed all the meat step by step. The next thing to do is to After the beef stew is ready, garnish the dish with these things.
"I'm so sorry, Yang Ming..."
It will definitely take a lot of time to roast such a big cow thoroughly, which means that Yukihira Souma's dishes will be the first to appear.
And in his dish, you can also taste the various flavors of beef... Is it a coincidence? In short, the judges who have tasted his dishes first will definitely have a lower evaluation of Yang Ming's roasted whole beef.
