Chapter 397
Erina's chosen theme is pork, and her opponent is naturally Chen Bangling.
Before the start of the competition, she had a hunch that she could become the leader of the Celestial Empire cooking team, and with such a great reputation in the team, she was likely to be the strongest chef in the opposing lineup!
So while Erina is making food, she also watches her opponent's movements in her spare time.
I saw that the ingredient chosen by Chen Bangling was a piece of pork foreleg meat with a delicious color!
Chen Bangling holds a sharp kitchen knife in one hand and presses the other hand on a large piece of pork front leg meat.
In the next second, Chen Bangling held the hand of the kitchen knife!
When she saw Chen Bangling's method of cutting pork, Erina's pupils shrank suddenly.
"It's... Circular tangential?"
It seemed that she heard Erina's subconscious exclamation, and Chen Bangling's movements stopped.
She looked up and glanced at Erina with some curiosity.
"Does Erina-san's knowledge of round cuts too?"
Hearing Chen Bangling's words, Erina nodded slightly.
"When my father taught me a course on knife work, he mentioned a lot of knife skills, round cutting is an extremely rare way to deal with meat in the cuisine of the Celestial Empire, and it is very difficult to use, even many older generations of cooks can't master this skill, but your technique has become so proficient......."
.........
Hearing Erina's words, Chen Bangling smiled slightly, but did not answer.
Round cutting, it is indeed a very difficult meat cutting technique,
Generally speaking, there are three types of meat cutting techniques with a knife.
One is the vertical cut, that is, the knife edge is cut directly down.
There is also a technique called flat slices, in which the blade and edge of the knife are horizontal, and the slices of meat that are not very thick are cut thinner in a horizontal way.
In addition to vertical cutting and flat slices, chefs often use the technique of beveled knife, the difficulty of using the bevel knife is higher than the previous two cutting methods, but compared with round cutting, the bevel knife is a younger brother!
.........
The so-called round cutting refers to the kitchen knife along the surface of the pork, according to the arc of the circle to slice the meat from the large piece of meat, each piece of pork, size, thickness, must be very uniform.
And the most amazing thing is that the pork slices sliced in a circle can be spliced together to form a circle, so this cutting method is called a round cut.
When many people see the round cutting technique for the first time, they will instinctively think that this is a kind of dazzling knife work, except for the good looks, it does not seem to have any substantial use.
Is it better to cut meat in circles than to cut it vertically?
For this kind of question, the real senior chefs simply don't bother to answer this kind of garbage question.
The so-called round cut is not a kind of dazzling knife work, and every time it falls, it is extremely meaningful.
The chef finds out the texture of the pork by observing it with the naked eye, and the core skill of round cutting is that the chef must follow the texture of the meat to slice the meat.
It does not hurt the tendons, does not hurt the meat cream, does not damage the meat membrane,
Each knife uses a round cut to cut the meat, which has an amazing taste and very firm flexibility.
Moreover, the uniform size and uniform thickness of the meat slices mean that the meat slices can be evenly flavored, and the dishes cooked with it are definitely much more than ordinary knife cuts, both in terms of taste and texture.
...........
Generally speaking, even if it is an experienced meat cutter, if you want to make a round cut without damaging the meat membrane, you must carve it carefully with a knife, but Chen Bangling's speed is indeed indescribably fast.
Seeing her movements as she handled the ingredients, a hint of solemnity flashed in Eri's eyes.
The strength of the opponent is indeed extraordinary, so you must be extremely cautious!
........
Just when the six cooks on the stage were having a cooking duel,
Senzaemon, who was sitting in the audience, suddenly received a phone call.
After listening to an incident reported by his subordinates on the phone, Senzaemon's face suddenly changed.
He stood up from his seat and hurried towards the lounge area under the stage.
And Nagi Sowei, who was sitting next to him, asked with some surprise:
"Father, what are you doing off the field?"
"There's a bit of an urgent matter to deal with, Zongwei, you come with me too!"
"I see!"
............
Senzaemon father and son, soon came to the rest area of the players off the field,
At this time, the blowing snow is watching Erina's game,
And at this time, he also noticed Senzaemon who was hurrying over,
..........
After a slight flurry, Blowing Snow quickly stood up and asked:
"Father-in-law, why are you here?"
"Blowing snow, come over here, I have something to ask you!"
"Good!"
Fukiyuki stood up and walked with Senzaemon to an empty and uninhabited entrance passage, and Senzaemon said in a deep voice:
"Isn't something big going on these days!?"
"Blowing snow, do you have something to hide from me?"
Seeing that the old man's expression was extremely serious, he was also a little confused when he blew snow,
But soon, he realized that it was the old man who came to kidnap Erina and the others last night......
But it's impossible, only I know about it, and those bodyguards were also ordered to be sealed by themselves, as for the parties, that is, the late-night cooks, who are still locked up in the prison cell...
In order not to worry the old man, he chose to hide this matter, could it be that the old man noticed this matter from other channels?
...........
Blowing Snow hesitated for a moment, he raised his head and asked:
"Father-in-law, what exactly do you want to say?"
"What do you mean by the big thing...?"
Looking at the blowing snow, the old man replied in a deep voice:
"True Dragon Academy,By their commander-in-chief,Used for mortgages!"
"Just now a friend of mine who works in the banking system called me.,Just ten years ago,The person in charge of the real dragon school park,Take the property certificate,Go to their bank to make a mortgage.,My friend suppressed the matter.,And then called me and asked,How to deal with this matter...."
