Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Congratulations to Ha Shanliang, becoming the third player to advance to the semi-finals!"

Accompanied by Kawashima Rei's voice, Ha Shanliang applauded the students all around Zhijing, while Fei Shazi walked off the field lonely.

Liu Maoxing and Erina were already waiting for her at the first entrance on this side, and Erina called out worriedly: "Fei Shazi, you..."

Fei Shazi folded her arms now, kept silent, lowered her head so that no one could see her face clearly, and looked very helpless, but it was more worrying than Alice's way of falling to the ground and crying bitterly after getting acquainted.

"I'm very sorry..." Fei Shazi apologized and ran away.

Feishazi is different from Liu Maoxing, Chuangzhen, Kurokiba, Hayama and others. Her goal has always been set at the position of "No.2", or the position of "beside Erina", rather than the real peak.

He even stubbornly believes that only if he can become No.2 among the students of the same year, is he eligible to stay with Erina.

Before the match, Fei Shazi didn't think he would lose, but the result turned out to be a very ugly loss!

Although the final result of the competition is discussed among the judges, rather than one person, one vote, but from the reactions of the judges before and after, it can be seen that there is not only a difference between the two, but also not small...

This hit Feisha hard, Erina is not the type who is good at persuading people, and now that Feisha is not here, as a member of the competition committee, there are still many things to deal with, and he cannot leave halfway, and Liu Maoxing also believes that Feisha can I walked out of the shadows by myself, so I left her alone first.

"Don't worry, I believe that the little secretary's will as a cook will not be defeated by a competition." Liu Maoxing said to the worried Erina.

"Well... You should go and prepare for your own game too! The fourth game will start in an hour." Erina said.

"The only regret now is that this is not the final, so it will not be held at night, and the roof cannot be opened to see the moon outside... Then, let me 'create' a moon!" Liu Maoxing said confidently.

An hour later, the judges had already returned to the judges' seats, and in the audience seats, Liu Maoxing easily found that fancy position that was incompatible with other surrounding areas.

The companions of Jixingliao also designed a unique cheering banner for Liu Maoxing, as well as encouraging horns, clapping devices, etc... If it wasn't for them, and there were also main contestants, they would probably have been kicked out!

"The following will be the last match to determine the semi-finalists! The first to appear is the fourth place in Group B in the preliminaries, the 'pioneer of the taste horizon' Takmi Aldini!"

In Rei Kawashima's announcement, the blond-haired Takumi walked up to the cooking table on the side of the arena with a smile that Liu Maoxing evaluated as "shameless"...

Because of his appearance, Takomi has always been popular among girls. Although his performance in the finals was not high, he won the cheers of a clear majority of women as soon as he appeared!

"And his opponent won the first place with an unprecedented full score in Group A of the qualifiers! Liu Maoxing, the Destroyer Dragon of the Gourmet Empire!"

That's right, some good people have nicknamed Liu Maoxing, and everyone's nicknames have been published in the school magazine, so the spread is very wide...

"Food Empire" naturally refers to Liu Maoxing's origin, the birthplace of "Chinese Cuisine", one of the world's three major cuisines, and also the location of the three major certification organizations Zhonglong Chef Alliance, so it is appropriate to call it "Gourmet Empire" .

And "dragon" is one of the pan-totems of the Chinese nation. "Destruction dragon" naturally refers to when Liu Maoxing set off a storm of taste in the preliminaries, all the achievements and efforts of other contestants, and even many contestants. Confidence, all crushed to pieces!

When Liu Maoxing made his appearance this time, the cheers were not weaker than that of Takmi, and most of them could be heard to be boys... Oh, and the most outstanding one was naturally the group of relatives and friends from Jixingliao!

Needless to say, the other people's cheers were half because of Liu Maoxing's strength in the preliminaries, and the other half was because there were too many girls cheering for Takomi before, which would naturally cause the boys to backlash!

"The main competition of the autumn trials, eight to four, the fourth round, the title is 'Dessert', and the time is three hours! Cooking, let's start!"

Accompanied by the word "start", Liu Maoxing and Takmi simultaneously moved the ingredients they had prepared out of the trolley.

You can see the ingredients of takmi, mainly low-gluten flour, eggs, butter, sugar, lemon and lemon olive oil, almonds and hazelnuts.

When Liu Maoxing saw that Takmi directly put the "lemon olive oil" on the cooking table, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly, secretly thinking that Takmi had indeed made progress, after all, he had helped him taste a lot of Italian cuisine, rich While adding his own recipes, it also increases the experience of takomi.

In the original plot, Takmi should have thought of using "lemon olive oil" to make lemon curd after being cornered by Subaru Misaku...

The judges paid more attention to Liu Maoxing, who was given a perfect score by the five judges in the preliminaries.

I saw Liu Maoxing's ingredients on the cooking table, mainly various nuts, as well as chocolate, coconut, banana, tomato, toast... and sweet potato flour and peanut butter?

There is also a very conspicuous piece of equipment in Liu Maoxing's cooking counter, which is the centrifuge used by Alice!

"Judging from the blond boy's ingredients and his hometown in Italy, I can guess that he should be making snow-covered cakes or something, but... Liu Maoxing's ingredients are hard to figure out." Ma Chang Love muttered.

"It's a mooncake." Senzaemon said.

"Eh? How did the commander-in-chief see it?" Ma Changluo asked puzzled.

"I just heard him mention it yesterday." Senzaemon didn't shy away from it.

"By the way, let's put it this way... It seems that I did hear people say that the commander-in-chief and this kid had dinner together yesterday. What's the matter? Could it be that the candidate for the grandson-in-law has been decided? Is it Erina or Alice?" look.

"He's still far behind, and Erina and Alice are still young, so there's no need to think about it."

While the judges were gossiping, the two people on the field were also busy making their own desserts. When Takmi put the cake embryos into the oven, Liu Maoxing had already peeled the walnuts, fried Made peach kernels and ground them into powder, prepared three or four types of sugar paste, batter...

It is worth noting that Liu Maoxing's processing speed is no longer in the category of "skilled pastry chef". In the same time, he has completed several times the workload of Tacomi!

Of course, another point worth noting is that when Liu Maoxing peeled the walnuts, he rubbed them with his hands...

Seeing this, Anxi Guangyi wondered: "If it is going to make moon cakes, it should be made of five-nut moon cakes? But what are those chocolates, coconut milk, bananas, etc.? And what kind of moon cakes does he decide to make? Skin? Take puff pastry, sugar skin? It doesn’t look like it from the raw materials…”

When Tacomi finished the lemon curd and spread it on the bottom cake, and the nuts on the top layer were almost ready, Liu Maoxing had already used the centrifuge to separate the pigmented part of the tomato, together with the peach kernel powder, And a red paste came out...

On the chopped walnuts, evenly coated with a layer of melted and re-solidified truffle chocolate...

The banana slices have been roasted to the point of being completely "air-dried", and then smashed as well...

The coconut meat was taken out and shredded and mixed with almonds...

Crush sesame seeds, wash off their skins with water and fry them dry, mix the boiled white sugar with jelly...

"Huh? Is what Liu Maoxing is making really 'a' kind of dessert?"

"But the action is really fast. Most of the time, both hands are doing different processes, and there is no time to wait. The most rare thing is that the various processing steps are not disordered!"

"Takomi is also good, and snow cake is a famous dessert in Italy. After all, dessert has much less to do with other cuisines. If you are good at other cuisines, you may not be able to make good desserts... If you are really upset here, it seems that you can also make desserts." Not surprising."

"No, in the world of cooks, only the able ones go up and the losers go down. There is no such thing as upset." Senzaemon said, but he is still optimistic about Liu Maoxing!

Although it has less origin with desserts and other dishes, it has something in common with pasta!

Until now, Liu Maoxing has not shown it, but Senzaemon is also silently looking forward to the pastry skills praised by Master Xie.

As if to respond to this expectation, Liu Maoxing finally used sweet potato flour!

I saw Liu Maoxing mixed sweet potato flour and flour, added water and kneaded it into a dough, then took out two rolling pins, held one in each hand, and swung it to make this special piece of dough grow longer and thinner little by little ...

Although it doesn't look as gorgeous as the kneading technique with Mizusa Subaru last time, only an expert can understand the way!

"Just now... at least the same amount of sweet potato flour was added to the flour, right? Did I read or remember correctly?" Anxi Guangyi said solemnly.

"No, I remember that too, and it should be more than flour!" Ma Changluofu also looked strange.

"En? So what?" Saitama asked puzzled.

Saitama and Ryuji are the representatives of the partners. Although they have rich tasting experience, they can only distinguish between delicious and bad. They are good at telling the taste of the ingredients, the advantages and disadvantages of the taste, but in practice In terms of cooking theory and steps, it is completely useless!

"After adding sweet potato flour, the stickiness of the dough will decrease, especially if you add so much like him, you should only be able to squeeze out the shape and not be able to pull it out." Ma Changluofu said.

But Senzaemon's eyes lit up and he said: "That's right, look at his movements carefully, it looks rough, but in fact it is full of soft and delicate feeling! It's like..."

The same technique, Senzaemon has also seen it in the hands of Master Xie...
