Chapter 1075

"Totsuki Academy Autumn Selection, the second round of the second round, Soma Yukihira will fight against Yang Ming!"

"The title is "A Western Main Dish." "

“Cooking—begin!”

When Uncle Gin Dojima held the microphone at first, Yang Ming thought he was going to be the host of this competition. Unexpectedly, he put the microphone away after saying that the competition was about to start. The wild and energetic host of the previous competition Jumped out again.

"Okay, let's watch the competition of the contestants below!" The host waved to the audience first, but unfortunately not many people seemed to pay attention to him, but he still described the situation on the court impassionedly, "We can watch Player Yukihira took out the red wine... and the brown sauce, it should be Dominglasa sauce, right? Hmm... This is a sauce that is often used with steak and beef."

"Coupled with the beef that Yukihira brought out, I think the dish he is going to make is "red wine beef stew"! "

As the host of a cooking competition, his knowledge of cooking knowledge is of course very important. Otherwise, if he talks nonsense on the stage, it would be a loss of face for Yueyue.

Speaking of which, although it looks beautiful, being a host is not that easy. A game can last two or three hours. How do you find a way to keep the audience's attention without getting bored? In addition to the visual feast brought by the exquisite cooking skills of the chefs on the scene, most of the credit must be attributed to the host.

Just talking too much will inevitably lead to mistakes. During the hours of chattering, the host will inevitably talk nonsense several times, and there will also be situations that he or she cannot understand. At this time, it is a test of a host’s experience. Rich moments now.

"Hey... we saw that what Yukihira brought out was oxtail meat! What happened? If you want to make beef stew, don't you always use beef tendon meat?" the host said in a surprised tone.

Beef tendon is the muscle on the beef thigh. It has tendons and skin, and is alternately fat and thin. After it is stewed, it becomes soft and chewy when you bite it, and it is full of flavor. It is perfect for making stew.

And his words naturally aroused the thinking of the audience below, yes, why does Soma Yukihira use oxtail meat?

"Chef Dojima Gin, can you explain it to everyone?" The host easily asked this question to Dojima Gin, who was sitting on the judges' table. Looking at his expression, it was impossible to tell that he didn't know. , still deliberately trying to adjust the atmosphere.

"Hmm... I think this is due to personal considerations of the players." Dojima Ginyan showed a hint of appreciation for Yukihira Soma and said, "I think everyone should know that oxtail meat is the part of beef that contains the most collagen. .”

"If you add seasonings to blanched oxtail meat, cover it with wheat flour and fry it until crispy, and then mix it with the sauce, a large amount of collagen will be produced..."

“When this flavor is mixed with the soup base, it will form an extremely rich and mellow gravy. The smooth, hot gravy mixed with the very viscous sauce will make the stew come out. Oxtail meat has a completely different texture than beef tendon meat.”

"Oh...that's it!" After hearing Dojima Gin's explanation, the audience couldn't help but look forward to Yukihira Soma's cooking.

"Okay... Contestant Yukihira added clover and black pepper to the oxtail meat. Well, clover can highlight the softness of the stew, and black pepper can also remove the fishy smell of beef. This is a very good choice. . It seems that Yukihira has given sufficient consideration to his cooking."

"So... let's take a look at player Yang Ming now. What he is doing now is... uh, this?"

Naturally, the players on the field could not hear clearly what the host said. There were no speakers installed around the stands. Presumably, the players who are competing do not want someone to keep chattering in their ears.

But not hearing what the host and Dojima Gin said didn't mean that Yang Ming wouldn't go see it himself. In fact, he noticed it when Soma Yukihira took out the ingredients.

"Damn it...it's really different!"

The "Red Wine Braised Beef" that Yukihira Soma made for him before was delicious, but after careful consideration, he still felt that the taste was a bit too soft.

Anyway, the title of this competition is "A Western Main Dish". The main course is naturally placed in a Western-style banquet. It has the responsibility to push the entire banquet to the top and completely release the appetite of the guests who have been pushed forward by the appetizers, soups, and side dishes.

The "Red Wine Beef Stew" made by Soma Yukihira tastes like what his mother made, and is completely different from the beef stew provided in high-end Western restaurants.

In other words, it is not a qualified Western-style main dish that is full of explosive power and can firmly control the appetite of diners.

But now, the moment he saw the oxtail meat, Yang Ming knew that Souma Yukihira had figured out this joint at some point. The tender and elastic oxtail meat wrapped in the gravy will definitely explode in the mouths of the judges...

"Well, you really can't expect your opponent to make mistakes."

The way to win a game is not just to make yourself stronger. Making your opponent weaker is sometimes more effective.

Although his opponent was Yukihira Soma, Yang Ming still had a little expectation. The opponent might not fully understand the question.

"It's better to cook your own food..."

After verifying his conjecture, Yang Ming began to devote his whole body and soul to the cooking he was going to make. Now, he could not help but be distracted.

Yang Ming gently picked up Tulong and used the sharp tip of the sharpened knife to gently chop the ingredients in front of him.

"The dish that Contestant Yang Ming is going to make... is actually roasted whole beef?!" the host said in shock.

In front of Yang Ming, there was indeed a whole cow being roasted at high temperature in a rotary oven. He kept smearing some sauce on it, as if to make the sauce taste better, and The firelight reflected on his face, slightly illuminating the sweat drops on his face.

"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.
