The student was not satisfied with his score and asked Qian Yi for an explanation.
Qian Piao Xia Ya looked cold, staring at the student in front of her, and said coldly: "Why, are you questioning our tongues?"
"I… I didn’t."
After all, he was just a 15-year-old student. After being glared at by a strong woman like Xia Ya, he instantly lost his confidence.
"Back off, getting 24 points is already a special favor! If it weren’t for Brother Qian Yi’s face, I wouldn’t give you a single point!" Xia Ya said coldly.
"Oh, Sister Xia Ya, don’t take it so seriously. She’s just a student."
Qian Yi looked at the student in front of him and smiled, "Let me explain what’s going on. Yes, I finished your dish, but I didn’t want to waste the ingredients, so I finished it with gratitude. The taste of your dish is hard to describe."
"The characteristic of hot and sour chicken curry is the complex taste of sour and spicy, which allows diners to feel the rich aroma of curry and the refreshing taste of sour and spicy. This unique taste combination makes hot and sour chicken curry a must-try among many dishes. "Stand out from the crowd and become a regular on the table."
"However, you made a fatal mistake in choosing ingredients. Onion chicken is indeed a high-end ingredient, but it has a strong onion flavor, which masks the taste of "sour" and "spicy", and the third flavor derived from it destroys the balance of the whole dish."
"Student, the key to whether a dish is delicious or not is not how high-end the ingredients are, but the cook’s grasp of the ingredients and his own cooking skills. Blindly using high-end ingredients that you cannot control will only backfire. "
Qian Yi’s words left the student speechless, and he could only leave dejectedly.
Then, Qian Yi stood up and said to everyone present: "Everyone, please remember what I just said. I also remind you to be down-to-earth. Only by taking one step at a time can we continue on this road of food exploration. Please rest assured that our judges are absolutely fair and will not make unfair judgments. You can fully trust the tongue of a professional food hunter."
These words gave confidence to the students who submitted their dishes later, and also boosted the atmosphere on the scene.
Afterwards, several more students submitted their dishes.
Without exception, Qian Yi ate all of them, leaving nothing behind.
But so far, the dish with the highest score is only 33 points.
It’s not that Qian Yi and his team don’t want to give high scores, but the taste of the dishes is too bad.
"It’s too bad. I’m afraid no one here can cook a dish that’s above 50 points. It’s too much of a stretch to ask you to cook curry for me to taste."
Xia Ya sighed at the students in front of her, turned around and flirted with Qian Yi, saying, "Brother Qian Yi, I’ll treat you to a star restaurant after this. Sister will definitely make sure you’re full."
"Don’t worry, the really delicious dishes are nowI will present it soon." Qian Yi said.
In the Shokugeki plot, the 92nd batch of students is called the "Jade Era".
Some of them are "unpolished jade" selected by Totsuki Commander Nakiri Senzaemon from all over Tokyo, including Yukihira Soma, Hayama Ryo and others.
It is not the turn of these "unpolished jade" to appear yet.
In the Shokugeki plot, the purpose of "unpolished jade" is to save the God’s Tongue.
And in the background of the big world of Shokugeki, there is no such thing as the "curse" of the God’s Tongue.
Of course, these are just Qian Yi’s guesses, and he is not interested in the affairs of the Nakiri family.
After a while, the first piece of "unpolished jade" was served.
Qian Yi was very impressed with this person, This student is called Kurokiba Ryo, and is the follower of Alice Nakiri. He grew up in a kitchen by the sea and is very good at handling seafood ingredients.
The "Lobster Fish French Curry" he made is based on the "Lobster Fish" caught at level 1.
The ingredient level is not high, but it brings out the characteristics and deliciousness of the ingredient to the extreme.
Without destroying the delicate meat of the lobster fish, the shell is broken and mixed with fish bones and curry to make a base soup.
Then soak the shelled lobster meat in the curry base soup.
The dish is very different from the previous one just from the appearance, and the taste is even more different.
Xia Ya has only eaten one bite of each dish since the beginning, and this time she finally Yu tasted the second bite, and then the third bite… In the end, he couldn’t stop eating.
Qian Yi finished the whole dish and nodded in praise.
Finally, Qian Yi gave Kurokiba Ryo 16 points for this dish, and Xia Ya and other four judges also gave high scores.
In the end, Kurokiba Ryo ranked first with a high score of 93 points.
Kurokiba Ryo got off to a good start, and then it was the individual performances of the first-year students.
A variety of dishes with the theme of "curry" were presented in front of Qian Yi.
The "Curry Natto Rice" made by Sakaki Ryoko, a member of the Polar Star Dormitory, who has an impressive figure and well-developed breasts, received 86 points.
Also from Polar Star Marui Zenji and Ibuzaki Shun, two members of the dormitory, scored 88 points with their "white thick soup curry udon" and "special smoked curry" respectively.
Mito Yumei, who has wheat-colored skin and wears extremely revealing clothes, scored 86 points with her "curry Dongpo pork rice bowl".
However, the competition has not yet reached its climax. Ye Shanliang, who is known as the "spice expert", served his curry dishes. The creative dish "fish head curry crispy soup" outlined with a variety of spices scored the highest score of 94 points.
When tasting here, Qian Yi was already very satisfied. Sitting on the chair, he couldn’t help but say comfortably: "Huh, I haven’t eaten so comfortably for a long time. This time it’s not in vain, right, sister Xia Ya?"
"A little… a little satisfied me, this group of students really surprised me." Xia Ya still didn’t want to admit it, butThe rosy face said it all.
The competition was going on here, and there was not much time left.
Just when everyone thought there would be no high scores, Soma Yukihira, who grew up freely in a small restaurant, finally served his dishes.
"Qianyi, try my dishes and feel the changes in my cooking skills!"
Soma Yukihira sent the dishes to Qianyi and the other five judges. It was a dish similar to an omelette.
Under the appearance of the omelette, rice and other ingredients were wrapped inside.
Because the name of this dish is also called "Curry Omelette Rice".
When Qianyi saw the dish in front of him, the corners of his mouth rose: "Soma, is this the result of your work in Totsuki in the past few months? Then, let me see what’s so special about it!"
As he said, Qianyi picked up the spoon next to the plate, and then swung it and knocked it on the shell of the "omelette".
Gah.
With a crisp sound, the omelette cracked, and the aroma trapped inside spread out like a bomb explosion.
At the same time, the stewed rice wrapped inside was also exposed.
This idea of Sojin is similar to the "Fish Head Curry Crispy Soup" just now by Ye Shanliang.
Both of them wrapped the food, and then released the aroma in one breath when they were about to eat.
"Hahaha, what an interesting dish, the rice grains in the wrapped egg skin shine with a moving luster, just like the white rice in the rice bowl with top-grade sauce."
Qian Yi laughed, picked up a spoon and scooped a large spoonful into his mouth, and was surprised after eating it.
The aroma you smelled and the aroma you ate were not at the same level… The strong aroma attacked the taste buds like a raging wave.
The rich broth made from chicken bones and beef tendons, and the delicious taste of minced beef and onions stir-fried with butter also permeated the rice.
The broth of the stewed rice blends perfectly with the fried smooth eggs.
This time, even Xia Ya couldn’t help but praise it, saying: "It looks like just an ordinary stewed rice, but after eating it, I feel like I’m almost paralyzed."
Qian Yi scooped up another spoonful of rice mixed with sauce and put it into his mouth, slowly saying: "The key to this dish is this sauce. Using oyster sauce as the base and honey for seasoning, the taste is rich and full of mild sourness. This sauce and the stewed rice inside bring out two levels of flavor. The two aromas are mixed together in succession, constantly tempting the hearts of diners."
"The fragrance and light fragrance come from cardamom and cumin, as well as cloves that constantly stimulate the tongue. Although you can smell fragments of the fragrance, they are only limited to the materials revealed on the surface. This taste that is closely combined with spices is ‘mango matsutake’!"
Mango matsutake, a capture level 3 ingredient, has the unique aroma of matsutake and the addictive sweet and sour taste of mango, a basidiomycete mushroom of the family Trichoderma.
Although its sweet taste is delicious when eaten directly,However, if it is slightly roasted and then poured with soy sauce, its fragrance will increase and the taste will become more mellow.
In addition, if it is also the main ingredient used by "Yukihira Restaurant" to make secret physalis, it is an ingredient often used by Yukihira Joichiro.
After knowing the structure of Soma’s cuisine, Qianyi couldn’t help but smile again and said: "When you stewed the rice, you added the ‘mango sweet and sour sauce’ cooked with ‘mango matsutake’ as the main flavor, and combined with the original flavors of various spices as the axis, the taste of the dish tastes deeper. Soma, this time’s cuisine has indeed made great progress compared to the last time, but this level is not enough to challenge me, keep working hard…"
Then Qianyi gave Soma this dish a high score of 18 to show encouragement.
The other four judges also gave Soma a high score, and the final score of 94 tied with Hayama Ryo for first place.
After Soma, there has never been a higher-scoring dish.
At this point, the preliminary round of the Totsuki Academy Autumn Selection Competition has ended.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task [Judge of the Autumn Selection Competition], food points +50, reputation +30."
Task completed, Qian Yi just walked out of the venue, and received a call from John Reese.
