Chapter 45
Chapter 45: Breakfast assessment begins
Mimasaka Subaru was so confident in his “perfect tracking” that he came to Tong Yu’s kitchen to try it out and told him the recipe directly.
The purpose of this is to further trample Tong Yu’s self-confidence, and to successfully erase the “shadow” in his heart.
This is not the first time Mimasaka Subaru has tried others, and he is not at all worried that Tong Yu will temporarily change the recipe after knowing what he is going to copy.
In his view, all opponents can be summarized into three types.
Type 1, bluffing, coaxing attacks, announcing in advance what they want to cook, but when it comes to the competition, they come up with the opposite dish to disturb (Mimasaka Subaru) mind. The more confident people are in themselves, the easier it is to do so.
Type 2, improvised cooking. It’s a way of stepping into the battlefield without thinking about what to do beforehand, and without thinking about anything, ideas won’t be stolen. While this makes some sense, most chefs get thrown into chaos and fail to even produce a finished product!
Type 3, abandoning the game entirely for fear of “perfect tracking”.
According to Mimasaka Subaru, Tong Yu belongs to the first category.
So thinking of this, Mimasaka Subaru said to Tong Yu again, “It doesn’t matter if you’re ‘bluffing, coaxing to attack’, or preparing for ‘improvised cooking’, my ‘perfect tracking’ has reached a 100% success rate, you just wait Kneel down and apologize to me.”
After Mimasaka Subaru finished speaking, he left Tong Yu’s trial kitchen.
That’s right, Mimasaka Subaru asked Tong Yu to put up a bet in the morning to kowtow and apologize.
If Tong Yu loses to Mimasaka Subaru in tomorrow’s assessment, he will not only lose a kitchen utensil, but also recognize Mimasaka Subaru’s cooking and apologize to him as a kowtow.
This is also Mimasaka Subaru’s usual method of defeating opponents.
However, Mimasaka Subaru’s blind confidence in himself caused his fatal injury, but it was too late when he found out…
After Mimasaka Subaru left, Tong Yu spent another hour in the kitchen preparing the fillings for the siomai before leaving.
Tong Yu left the kitchen on his forefoot, and Mimasaka Subaru’s sneaky figure reappeared outside the kitchen where he was trying to cook.
Mimasaka Subaru, who had gone back and forth, came to Tong Yu’s trial kitchen again and checked the ingredients he had prepared on the countertop.
Shaomai skin, chopped preserved egg, crab roe…
It exactly matches the ingredients needed for the recipe of “Three Eggs Shaomai”.
This time, Mimasaka Subaru was completely relieved.
“Hehe, I thought you would make a temporary improvement, but now it seems that you are not very good. If this is the case, you have no chance.” Mimasaka Subaru left Tong Yu’s kitchen with a conspiracy smile and reassured.
…
Tong Yu went back to the hotel room to take a shower, set the alarm on his mobile phone to 4 o’clock in the morning, and went to bed.
At four o’clock, get up on time.
After getting up, he went to the ingredients store to get some ingredients, and then went back to the trial kitchen to prepare again.
At 5:10, Tong Yu got the ingredients he prepared and went to the cafeteria for breakfast.
There are five cafeterias in total for the assessment. One cafeteria has hundreds of self-service counters, and each student corresponds to one self-service counter.
Tong Yu was assigned to No. 26 of Cafeteria A.
Walking into the cafeteria, Tong Yu found many “acquaintances”.
First is the little Tsundere located opposite, then Sōma next to the little Tsundere.
In addition, there are Tadokoro Megumi, Aldini · Takumi.
When Sōma saw Tong Yu walk in, he immediately waved to him: “Ayu, you are here too!”
Originally, little Tsundere didn’t notice Tong Yu, but when Sōma called her, she immediately raised her head.
“Tong… Master Tong Yu.”
The moment Nakiri Erina saw Tong Yu, her face was rosy with honey.
“Oh, you’re all here, so let’s do our best.” Tong Yu simply said hello and started preparing his own dishes.
Now Tong Yu doesn’t have the heart to chat with other people, he wants to finish the rest of the work before 6 o’clock.
When Tong Yu prepared all the ingredients, it was 6 o’clock.
At this time, the sound of the broadcast notification also came over.
“The time is up, are you ready to cook? Next, I will explain the content of the assessment again. First, I will introduce the judges this time.”
When Dojima Gin’s words fell on the radio, the doors of various cafeterias were pushed open, and a group of men, women and children walked in.
“These are the ingredients producers who assist Tōtsuki Resort and their families. We invite them to be the judges of this assessment every year, and we have informed them in advance of the ‘egg dishes that can bring surprises’, and they will prepare for you. review the dishes…”
The qualified conditions are the same as what Dojima Gin said last night, the dishes approved by these “evaluators” were eaten by 200 people.
“Okay, now please enjoy this breakfast time, I announce that the review will now begin.”
When Dojima Gin’s words fell, everyone in the cafeteria started to get busy.
In order to reach 200 people, most of the students cooked a lot of finished dishes at a time-stuck, and now they are directly serving them.
However, Tong Yu didn’t do that, because he knew that in order to gain more recognition, the first thing he had to do was to attract customers.
Placing the finished product in front of the self-service counter and passively waiting for customers to taste it will be very difficult.
In the cooking world, there is such a term as “live cooking”.
The dishes are not traditionally served directly to the guests’ table, but are cooked on the spot in front of the guests, which can not only make the guests expect better taste, see the ingredients turn into dishes with their own eyes, and make the guests’ emotions even higher .
“Then let’s begin.”
After Tong Yu finished speaking, he took off his upper body clothes, which immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding students and guests.
A large lump of kneaded flour was already placed on the cooking table, Tong Yu took out a long and large rolling stick and placed the wooden stick on the dough.
Then, he closed his eyes and took a breath.
“call.”
Then his eyes opened suddenly, Tong Yu let out a low voice, propped up a wooden stick in his right hand, his feet gradually got off the ground, and the whole person actually stood upside down with one hand.
“what?”
This surprised many people and didn’t understand what Tong Yu was doing.
