Chapter 58: Theme “Beef”
Jingpu Jiushang, the current director of the Food Bureau, wears black-rimmed glasses and a colorful poker suit.
Although his clothes are “fancy”, he is not smiling.
With a serious face, Jingpu Jiushang came to the machine that selected the theme and reached out and grabbed a piece of paper folded in half.
Then he unfolded the note and held it high, only to see two words written on it – beef.
When he saw this theme, Tong Yu’s eyes flashed, and the corner of his mouth evoked an unknown smile.
Rong Shanzhijin also snorted coldly, bowing his head slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
“The theme of the food is determined to be beef! After the cooking officially starts, two contestants are asked to cook a dish with the theme of “beef”. There is no limit to the cooking time. The cooking time is three hours. Tasting, so now the bet on this halberd is determined again
The stakes haven’t changed, they’re still the same as before.
Tong Yu wins and will inherit the ninth seat of Yamae Tsuya, and Rong Shan will also be expelled from school.
Rong Shan Zhi Jin also won, Tong Yu’s “personal assets” will be owned by Rong Shan, and Jiu I Zhaoji will also withdraw 22 to the eighth seat, and Rong Shan’s seat will be promoted by one.
Judging from the halberd-eating bet alone, everyone knew that there were many unknown things hidden behind this halberd-eating. Because Tong Yu and Eishan’s halberds are mixed with the eighth seat Kuga Teruki.
“Senior Rong Shan, stay safe, I still want to say thank you before the official start of the halberd, thank you for your “special care” for me during the dormitory training.
“What is Tong Yu talking about? I can’t understand a word. I heard that your new comic has exceeded 1000w in circulation. I really want to congratulate you on writing such a masterpiece.”
Rong Shan said that he deliberately listened to it for a while, and a treacherous smile appeared on his face: “But it’s a pity, such a good work is immediately in my bag!
“Really? It seems that Eizan-senpai has been sleeping very well recently. What brand of pillow do you use?” Tong Yu sneered.
When Tong Yu and Rong Shan “reminisced”, Kawashima Rei also introduced this time as the reviewer of the review.
This time the judge is a trio of “two old and one young”.
Two bald old men and a middle-aged man who looked to be in his 30s.
These two old men are sponsors of Tōtsuki Academy and enjoy high treatment in Tōtsuki. It can be said that in Tōtsuki this place is qualified except Nakiri Senzaemon, that is the two of them.
The bald, kappa-like old man is called Oizumi.
A fat body and a ruddy complexion are called Xiangshui.
As for the last middle-aged man named Hiro Yu Tsushima, he is the chief planner of TV Tokyo’s food column, and he is also a well-known gourmet in Tokyo.
The three of them seemed to know each other, and they chatted in front of the jury together.
“Mr. Oizumi, who do you like more about the players on both sides? Tsushima Hiroyu asked.
“I’m still more optimistic about the Elite Ten. After all, the Elite Ten has its own skills as the sign of the month. It is rare to see an ordinary student defeating the Elite Ten in a regular halberd.” Oizumi rubbed his chin and analyzed.
Xiang Xiang also nodded his head in favor of Oizumi’s point of view, and said, “Well, unless this student is exceptionally good and talented. But what is the personal asset mentioned in the bet just now?”
“It’s not very clear, because it involves the privacy of the players, and the Authority is not willing to disclose it..”
Since the theme is on-site extraction, the ingredients cannot be prepared in advance.
After announcing the theme, the contestants tell the staff of the Shiji Administration what ingredients they need, and then prepare.
After thinking for a few minutes, Tong Yu decided what to cook, and then told the staff the ingredients and props he needed.
The same goes for Rong Shan, who also decided on the recipe in just a few minutes.
This meal has been confirmed half a month ago, and it has been highly valued by the management of the meal. The preparations on site are very complete.
Soon the ingredients and props needed by the two contestants were sent to their respective cooking stations.
Needless to say, the main ingredients on both sides are beef, but the selected parts are different.
Rong Shan chose beef ham, while Tong Yu chose beef loin.
Two completely different parts, the taste will be very different.
In addition, other auxiliary ingredients of Rongshan include whipped cream, anchovies, western mustard, yogurt, eggs, etc…
The ingredients used by Tong Yu are relatively simple, only bamboo shoots, cabbage, fungus, vermicelli, and four bottles of tequila can be seen. And then there’s a big tank
This big vat has a depth of two meters and a diameter of about one meter, and is filled with water that is one-half the depth of the vat.
Since this large cylinder is relatively bulky, it is still placed on a small truck to be transported in.
When everyone saw this, they were all puzzled.
So much tequila can be justified, and this type of drink is often used in Western cooking.
But this vat can’t figure it out anyway.
“What are you going to do with this lipstick?”
“Could it be that you were worried that the water at the site was not clean, and a better water source was specially obtained from other places?”
“Something’s wrong, there are still fish in that tank!” Suddenly a student pointed to the big tank and exclaimed.
I saw two kinds of fish swimming happily in the clear water.
One is a crucian carp and the other is a flounder.
When they saw this, everyone was even more puzzled.
Because there are fish in the tank, it means that the water in the tank is not drinking water. Then it can only be explained that this large tank is only used as a container to hold two fish.
But if you want to use these two fish, you can put them in a small container and put them into a big tank with such a big move. What is this?
After thinking about it, everyone could not know Tong Yuyu’s intentions, but Jiuga Zhaoji in the VIP room found something, and his expression flashed with surprise.
“Difficult, does he want to cook that dish?” Jiu I exclaimed according to the discipline.
This was heard by Nakiri047 Erina and Arato Hisako, who were also sitting in the VIP room.
“Junior, senior, do you know the cooking that Mr. Tong Yu has to do?” Erina asked.
It took a long time for me to take back my surprised expression and return to my normal expression: “I’m not sure, but it should be inseparable.”
Hearing Jiuga Teruki say this, Erina is even more curious about what Tong Yu will cook next.
The time soon came to 9:00 sharp, and Kawashima Rei announced on time with the microphone: “Start cooking!”
When these words fell, Eizan took the lead in taking action.
Rongshan first used kitchen paper to absorb the moisture on the surface of the beef shank, and then marinated it with seasonings such as salt and black pepper.
The whole process is extremely skilled, and it can be seen that he has experience in handling this type of ingredients. At the same time, in the process of this series, he still occasionally fell on Tong Yu who was at the cooking station behind him.
Tong Yu did not deal with the ingredients as Rong Shan did, but picked up the tequila on the cooking table and drank it.
“Ah, his wine is not for seasoning, but for drinking?”
“I, fuck, drink so much at one time, that’s tequila!”
Tequila, a specialty spirit in Mexico, has a very high alcohol concentration among the major alcoholic beverages. The person who is not good at drinking takes a sip, his face is red and his ears are red.
Zhang Yu raised his head and held the wine bottle high, and he drank all the 500ml bottle of tequila after a while, which made everyone exclaim.
