Chapter 823 Soma Yukihira’s Solo Show

Xingping Soma stretched out his hand and gestured, while saying, "These are a bit small, I need a few... as big as that plate." He pointed to a kind of plate at the place of the cutlery.

Nakiri Erina nodded and ordered someone to go to the logistics department to notify them and deliver a few pumpkins of the required size.

Because of Yukihira Souma's problem, others focused on him. Regarding the size requirements for cooking ingredients, it is really difficult to tell whether Souma Yukihira is a true layman of cooking or if he has some special ideas.

Xing Ping Soma carefully selected and finally determined all the ingredients. In fact, it wasn't that he was too diligent in the process of selecting ingredients, it was just that he was contemplating the cooking method while selecting ingredients, and various ideas collided in his head. He was already highly focused when he was caught in a brainstorm, but he couldn't help but come up with creative ideas one after another.

The combination of each ingredient is constantly being formed and matched in Xing Ping Soma's mind... After washing all the ingredients, Xing Ping Soma took a deep breath slowly, inhaling, exhaling, inhaling, exhaling... From brainstorming Come out of the state.

Choosing among a pile of kitchen utensils, Xingping Soma found a knife that was just the right size and weighed it in his hand. It had the right weight and a comfortable handle...

With a twist of his wrist, Yukihira Soma threw the knife in his hand vertically upwards. The thrown knife flipped several times in the air before falling vertically and quickly again.

Yukihira Soma raised his hand, caught the whirling knife with his eyes, and suddenly grabbed the handle of the flying knife. The fingers of his other hand wiped the back of the knife, and his eyes changed in an instant!

The swing of the knife just now was not for the sake of being cool, it was just a habit of Yukihira Souma. Whenever he was practicing his cooking skills, he was used to throwing the knife into the air and catching it with his bare hands. The moment the knife is thrown out, the whole person will become nervous because of the instinctive fear of being hurt by the knife, and all the attention will be focused on the whirling knife. In order to catch the flying tool, you must concentrate all your attention, capture every frame of the tool's movement, and even estimate the tool's next route.

In this way, after a process of throwing the knife and catching the knife, Xingping Soma's nerves tensed up in an instant, and his attention also focused in an instant.

In fact, this action is like a physical command. After the command is given, Yukihira Soma, who is motivated by training instinct, will instantly enter a state of complete concentration on cooking. Get rid of all distracting thoughts and devote yourself to cooking.

Souma Yukihira held a round carrot in his hand, holding a knife in the other hand to remove the head and tail of the carrot, leaving only about two inches in length, and cooked several carrots in the same way.

Holding the carrot in his left hand, he placed almost the entire ingredient in his palm. He bent over the cooking table and drew a beautiful curve with the tip of the knife, leaving several deep or shallow marks on the carrot. Quickly cut off a small section of the carrot so that it looks like a slightly curved shape.

"Xinghei Soji is really dealing with carrots, right?" A voice sounded from the crowd of onlookers, with a little doubt in his words.

Since only Soma Yukihira has not finished cooking, he has become the center of attention.

"Yeah, but it looks like... he has no idea what he's going to do? He looks like he's spending a lot of time on a carrot."

"It's too much work."

Yukihira Soma cut off a small section of several carrots to a greater or lesser extent, making each carrot bend, but the degree of bending was slightly different. Holding the handle of the knife with a little force in his right hand, he made horizontal cuts on the carrots, carving out the shell mold of the shrimps. Then he hooked the tip of the knife, and the smart eyes were also carved out, and the thin carrot silk was hung on the The head of the shrimp makes the whole shrimp look real.

The light of the knife flashed, and the various parts of the shrimp's abdomen, back, and head were slowly and slowly formed under the shadow of the flying knife. When Yukihira Soma put down the carrot in his hand, the carrot had already turned into an orange-red shrimp.

Everyone's eyes followed the tip of Souma Yukihira's sword, as if they were afraid of missing any detail. Everyone else sighed when they saw the carved shrimps, and their views on Yukihira Souma also changed slightly.

"Is this? Such advanced carving skills!" Nakiri Erina's voice was filled with surprise, and she looked at the carrot-carved shrimps placed on the cooking table with burning eyes.

The onlookers also had a heated discussion.

"Wow! Yukihira Souma's craftsmanship is so beautiful, and his knife skills are amazing!"

"Indeed, it's amazing."

"This boy's carving skills have become much better than before."

Nakiri Erina became somewhat interested, but still said coldly, "But no matter how good your carving is, it's useless if I don't have the appetite to eat."

When Kobayashi Ringtong heard what was said here, he put his hands on the cooking table, looked in the direction of Erina Nakiri, then turned to look at Yukihira Soma, and said casually, "It is indeed a very good knife skill, and it is indeed very beautiful. . However, you still have to eat the food after all.”

Yukihira Soma, who was immersed in the cooking, didn't pay attention to the discussions of the people around him. No, it should be said that he didn't hear the voices of these people at all. At this moment, when he was in a state of concentration, he only had food in his eyes. All his senses of sight, taste, smell, and hearing were filled with his own food. He had no time to think about other things, and he didn't care about anything else.

Then, Xingping Soma put these "shrimps" aside and laid out the peeled potatoes one by one. Playing with the knife in his hand, he compared the potatoes on the cooking table, holding the potato with one hand and holding the knife with the other. Wherever the blade touched, it left deep or shallow marks on the potatoes. Yukihira Souma paid extremely careful attention to the force of the knife tip, even more so than when he had just carved the carrots and shrimps.

Potatoes and carrots are two ingredients with huge differences in carving. The hardness and density of potatoes make them less suitable for carving than carrots, so carving requires a little more care.

Each round potato had its periphery cut off, and the rudimentary shape of a "fish" gradually emerged. Patterns like fish scales were slowly carved on the smooth potatoes, and the patterns were row upon row and very neat. Souma Yukihira carefully outlined some slight fine marks on the tail part of the fish to serve as fins, and dug small holes for the eyes of the fish, making the potato-carved fish look like it was blind.

After that, he casually reached out and grabbed the prepared red radish, cut out a few sesame-sized balls from the red heart of the radish, which happened to be the size of fish eyes, and inserted them into the empty eyes of the fish carved from potatoes.

When all the carving work was ready, Xingping Soma calculated the time, put the carved raw materials into the steamer, and put some washed vegetables into the juicer.
