Food: I Am A Cartoonist In Totsuki

Chapter 44



Chapter 44: Definite recipe, Three Eggs Shaomai?

Just when everyone was wondering, Dojima Gin explained.

“The topic of tomorrow morning’s topic is breakfast dishes worthy of the guests of Tōtsuki Resort. The plan of the year lies in the spring, and the plan of the day lies in the morning. Morning is the brand of a shop, and it is for the guests to start a new wonderful day. An important meal. I want you to make a dish that will brighten the table with something new and surprising.”

Hearing this, many students have realized that the next assessment will be the most difficult one for the residential training in the past few days.

Dojima Gin said, holding an egg in his hand, and said to everyone: “The main ingredient for the assessment is eggs, Japanese, Western or Chinese food can be used. There will be fresh and sufficient ingredients in the kitchen for everyone to use, please make It can be provided in the form of a buffet, and the review will start at 6:00 tomorrow morning, please make it possible to try it at that time.”

“6 o’clock in the morning? I must have heard it wrong, it must be 6 o’clock in the evening.”

“No, Yuuki, you heard it right, it’s 6 in the morning.”

“In other words, can’t sleep at all tonight?”

Yoshino Yuuki’s heart began to shatter again, and this was a veritable “hell training”.

“From now on, all kitchens can be used, and you can go back to your room to sleep freely. As for the qualifications, there are two points. First, the ideas approved by the tasters. Second, within 2 hours Reaching 200 people, meeting these two conditions is considered qualified… Then we will see you at 6 o’clock tomorrow morning and disband.”

After Dojima Gin was announced, he left the summit stage.

And the many students who stayed in the same place screamed and howled.

“No, it’s definitely not going to work this time, I can’t breathe at all.”

“This kind of tired state simply can’t exert its original strength.”

“Damn it, is this the end?”

Many students are exhausted from the continuous assessment, and have no confidence in the assessment tomorrow morning.

However, for Tong Yu, these assessments are not too difficult, after all, he has long known that there will be such assessments.

The breakfast assessment with “eggs” as the theme ingredient is the same as the original, and it has not changed.

If he hadn’t made a bet with Mimasaka Subaru, Tong Yu would have already thought about making the dish “Three Shaomai”.

It is suitable for eating in the morning and has a brand of noodles. This is the only dish in “Zhonghua Ian”.

Mimasaka Subaru said to beat Tong Yu with a copy of the dish, so he must also cook this dish.

Tong Yu is not afraid of losing to Mimasaka Subaru in terms of taste when cooking the same dish, but doing so makes him feel unsafe…

Just as Tong Yu was thinking of this, Mimasaka Subaru moved towards him.

“I didn’t expect the chance of a duel to come so soon, let’s see who gets more servings to compete, no problem?” Mimasaka Subaru said to Tong Yu.

Tong Yu chuckled: “Yes, but you won’t break the contract if you lose, right?”

“Hehe, wait until you beat me.” Mimasaka Subaru turned and left after saying that.

Hearing the conversation between the two, everyone in Polar Star Dorm was puzzled because they didn’t know about the bet between Tong Yu and Mimasaka Subaru.

Tong Yu didn’t explain, and they didn’t ask much.

This assessment is quite difficult, not only to satisfy the appetite of the guests of Tōtsuki Resort with quirky tastes, but also to reach 200 copies within 2 hours.

This means that while deciding what you want this evening, there is also a series of preparations.

Therefore, after the announcement, many students did not choose to go back to their rooms to sleep, but went to the kitchen to prepare for trial production.

There is an exception for Tong Yu, who also needs to make a series of preparations.

On the way to the kitchen, Tong Yu bumped into Hōjō Miyoko.

“Mimasaka Subaru came to you just for a bet, right?” Hōjō Miyoko asked.

Tong Yu nodded: “Well, he wants to decide the winner with me in this assessment.”

“Then what are you going to do? If it’s the cooking that appears in the comics, he will definitely ‘copy’ it.”

Hōjō Miyoko is also a big fan of Tong Yu and knows the recipes in the manga very well.

“Well, this time I can only make ‘Three Shaomai’, because this is the only one of my many recipes that fits the theme of this time…”

“As Mimasaka Subaru is accustomed to, he will definitely ‘track’ you. Be careful when you try it tonight.”

Tong Yu knows this better than anyone, and all he wants is to show Mimasaka Subaru, otherwise the guy won’t take the bait.

Thinking of this, Tong Yu’s mouth couldn’t help but evoke a smile.

After Tong Yu chose the kitchen, he went to the ingredients store.

Three egg simmered wheat, the three kinds of eggs needed are “egg”, “crab egg” and “preserved egg”.

The first two are very common, but I don’t know if there is this preserved egg.

But Tōtsuki Resort’s did not disappoint Tong Yu, the ingredients library has a lot of preserved eggs, and other ingredients are also very abundant.

After picking enough ingredients to go back to the kitchen, Tong Yu starts to prepare.

Shaomai is a very popular specialty snack in Chinese cuisine.

It is said that the inspiration for the production originated from steamed buns. The main difference between it and steamed buns is that, in addition to using unfermented noodles to make the skin, the top is not sealed and it is shaped like a pomegranate.

“Using the noodles as the skin, the meat as the filling, and the top as the stamens, it is called shumai in the dialect.”

The skin and stuffing are the components of siomai. The skin is the torso, the stuffing is the soul, and both are indispensable.

Tong Yu’s first step is to start with the basic shaomai skin.

It is not difficult to make shaomaipi, it took an hour to prepare enough shaomaipi.

Just as Tong Yu was about to prepare the filling, the door to his kitchen was gently pushed open.

“Yep?”

Tong Yu looked back and saw that it was no one else who entered the kitchen, but Mimasaka Subaru.

“Mimasaka Subaru, what are you doing in my kitchen, investigating the enemy?” Tong Yu asked coldly, staring at Mimasaka Subaru.

“I just came to remind you not to forget the bet between us…”

Mimasaka Subaru said that, but his eyes glanced at Tong Yu’s cooking table.

Eggs, Crab Eggs, Preserved Eggs.

Sure enough, all you have to do is three courses of shaomai.

The corner of Mimasaka Subaru’s mouth evoked a strange smile: “You really want to do ‘Three Eggs Shaomai’.”

“so what?”

“I said that I will beat you with the recipes you created. I will also cook this dish this time. Let’s see who makes it more popular…”
