Chapter 108: Journey and return


Shi Jianrun didn't have any opinion on the door, and he carefully explained Liu Pengxing and Chuangzhen, but naturally it was too late to explain all the knowledge about spices, just summed up the introductory knowledge of the classification of "spices" in some spices
Spices refer specifically to the classification of spices that contain irritating fragrances. When it comes to "curry dishes", one naturally has to say spices.
According to Shimirun's simple classification, the most important spices are the three points of "aroma", "spicy" and "color", where "spicy" is not "spicy" in the narrow sense, and the strong fragrance can also be understood as "spicy" ".
European style curry, also known as Japanese curry, uses "strong flavor" instead of pure "spicy" to satisfy diners who cannot eat spicy Indian curry.
As we all know, in the use of spices, the most difficult thing is to mix them. After mixing all kinds of spices, there are countless changes in color, fragrance, and taste. The more kinds of spices used, the more these changes show an exponential increase ...
Moreover, Shimirun also proposed that even spicy ingredients of the same proportion, because each spice ingredient is pre-fried, heated temperature, dry or fresh ... Innumerable factors will also have an impact!
On the one side, Ye Shanliang also seemed to be provocative, taking Liu Pengxing and Chuangzheng to go to the kitchen in a practical way, and showed them the same spice recipe, different treatment of spices in advance, and different substrates that carry spices. Different effects.
Liu Pengxing also gradually understood the advantages and disadvantages of the "spices inequality". For the mixing and matching of spices, the "spices inequality" has an unparalleled calculation speed, and with the "super tongue", even if you have not seen spices, you can immediately " "Enter" data for simulation calculation.
But at the same time, for what Shimirun said later, regarding the influence of temperature, oil and other factors on the taste of spices, the "spices inequality" is not very good.
In other words, the physical mixing and the chemical changes between the spices are very good. For the spice due to the external conditions, the chemical changes produced by itself cannot be predicted. The more such changes, the more simulation calculations The greater the error.
This is also the reason of "spices inequality", which can only calculate the spices. If it is other ingredients, considering the changes in raw and cooked heat, the error will break through the sky ...
Therefore, the usual practice of Green-eyed Tiger Mila is to simulate the other party's cooking, add spices at the end, make the spice as little as possible to make chemical changes, and achieve the purpose of enhancing the deliciousness of the cooking.
But if "curry cuisine" with spicy ingredients as its soul, Liu Pengxing cannot add spices at the end to embellish it, and if he completely relies on the "spices inequality", it will produce huge errors ...
"Thank you for your hospitality, and thank you for your explanation ... I think I know where my weakness is in the use of spices. After that, other students at Jixingliao may also disturb one or two in the next few days, causing you trouble!"
Shimirun is still very good at talking about things other than Joichiro, and he nodded when he heard the words: "Well, yes, for the sake of" Ji Xing Lao ", I can teach you specifically, but only for This week, after that I have my own research to do. "
Ye Shanliang looked at Liu Pengxing and said, "Looking at your eyes, it seems that you already have confidence to make up for your weakness?"
"Yes, you have to work hard. After two months of caution, I was overtaken by the spice!" Liu Pengxing smiled.
"My sense of smell is different from that of ordinary people. I have also discovered that you can use your tongue to perceive odor molecules? But you must know that the same odor molecules are perceived by olfactory and taste perception. The effect is different!
Before the appearance and deliciousness of the cuisine, it is first presented to the diners, and it will always be aroma ... Only those who can truly control the aroma can stand at the top of the cooking world! Ye Shanliang said confidently.
"I don't know if spice can make you stand at the top, but I admit that spice is important ... But if you want to control spice, you need not only a good nose, but also a brain that can carry a huge number of changing types!" Liu Pengxing said that he approached Ye Shanliang two steps, his left index finger pointed his temple.
"Oh, are you confident in your own mind? But don't forget, it's not just me that you will face, Run will be with me, our combination is invincible!" Ye Shanliang believes most not himself , But a combination of yourself and Run.
"See you then!" Liu Pengxing waved his hand.
"Well? Listening to what you mean, won't you come again before the start of school?" Ye Shanliang wondered.
Although Liu Pengxing is regarded by him as his biggest competitor, Ye Shanliang doesn't mind other people's spice and know more about it. After all, this topic has been extremely beneficial to him.
"Yes, I plan to go to Northern Europe. I will probably come back before the start of school! The molecular cuisine there is very interesting, and the technical profession has specialization. It should be more intuitive to see that each spice is in external conditions. Let's make a self-reaction! "Liu Pengxing said.
It is true that although Shi Jianrun focuses on the research of spices, the research focus is mainly on the cultivation, preservation, and mixed use of spices.
In contrast, although the Danish New Culinary Research Institute mainly studies molecular culinary science, it is naturally also within the scope of its research on the chemical reactions that occur in spices themselves.
"Molecular cuisine? Then good luck!"
After returning to Jixingliao, Liu Pengxing immediately booked a time with Alice, and on the second day of the official holiday, he took a plane to Denmark ...
At the Danish Institute of New Culinary Sciences, Pleiades Liu learned a lot of new things, including naturally the chemical reaction records of various spices, which gradually enriched his "spices inequality".
Originally, Liu Pengxing wanted to stay in the Danish research institute for two months, before going to school to go to Hokkaido with Alice and Kurokiba to participate in the "dessert event", but one month later, one thing happened The father of Ling Alice, with a knife, chased him down eight streets!
Therefore, I had to leave Denmark one month in advance. Before leaving, I made an appointment with Alice to meet in Hokkaido ...
In a blink of an eye, the two-month summer vacation of Yuanyue College was over. Alice wore a big straw hat, and together with Heimuchang, they were waiting at the entrance of the hotel when they participated in the "Seafood Pastry Competition" Look.
Soon Liu Pengxing also rushed over by taxi ...
"Sorry, the plane is a little late." Liu Pengxing said embarrassedly.
"Well, can't you come back one day in advance? A lovely lady is waiting for you!" Alice said with a white eye.
"After all, the hotel is very expensive one night. If I come back first, I won't have to pay for it myself?" Liu Pengxing looked super smart.
Alice was about to vomit, and suddenly remembered something. She glanced at her phone again and said, "Wait, the news just seems to say that the plane is late ... Are you going to the United States?"
Originally Alice thought that if Liu Pengxing did not return to the far moon this month, it should be home!
But in terms of time, Liu Pengxing's plane should be from New York to Hokkaido ...
"Well, I really wanted to go home to see, but suddenly remembered that there were other things to deal with, so I went to the United States." Liu Pengxing did not explain what was the matter, and Alice did not ask much.
After a while, Liu Pengxing couldn't help but whispered to Alice, "Is that ... Isn't he good?"
Alice blushed when she heard her words, and then said with a flutter of eyes: "It was nothing, originally nothing! Even I haven't said anything ... It's because you are too nervous!"
At this moment, Heimuchang interjected stupidly: "Well? The director didn't say that, when you let Miss you see Axing ..."
"Shut up!" Alice stopped his words.
Seeing Alice ’s reaction, Liu Pengxing quickly digressed and said:
By the way, which top 50 dessert masters will participate in this dessert event? How many kinds of desserts will appear in the event?

"This is the brochure I received before. It reads ... We had good luck at this event! Three of the top ten dessert masters actually came to the meeting. The previous ten masters all came only one. Most of the cases, sometimes bad luck, and maybe not even the top ten masters. "Alice said while looking forward, handing a booklet to Liu Pengxing.
"Thousands in total? So many?" Liu Pengxing said in surprise.
"Yeah ~ EbookFREE.me ~ After all, there will be hundreds of dessert experts, and many dessert chefs provide more than one dessert ... how? If you want to eat, it is best to plan first!" Said Alice.
"Which kind of food do you want? No, it seems that you don't know much about my style when I eat buffet!"
Hearing Liu Pengxing's words, Alice had a bad hunch in her heart ...
What do you want to eat? Just kidding, in the past two months, Liu Pengxing has finally improved his cooking skills by one star and reached the "advanced five-star", and has been stuck here since then. He also hopes to break through the special grade with the "dessert event"!
And more than 1,400 kinds of desserts in three days. In the "dessert event" for three consecutive days, if not eating anything else, Liu Pengxing felt that it was still possible to reach his goal.
Although it is impossible to force the buffet out of the back door like in the Yuanyue Hotel, desserts are not like dishes, and each kind should not be large ...
Therefore, in this Hokkaido "dessert event", there is a legend of "the king of big stomach" ... (to be continued.)
