Chapter 283: horseradish

"You are here."
While Fang Ze and Liu Xingxing chatted about some cooking experiences, Lin Xiaoxin ate around and made the awkward Chinese familiar to Fang Ze sound in his ears.
"Hello, meet again."
Only the neon chef can speak so awkwardly.
Fang Ze looked at the platform in front, and it turned out that the neon chef who had previously spoken on the high-speed rail stood there and bent slightly to him.
"Really good." Fang Ze nodded slightly to the neon chef, then asked, "Is this your booth?"
"Yes. This is my brother's application for the exhibition of our authentic Japanese materials. Would you like to come and try it?"
"Taste it." Fang Ze and Liu Xingxing walked over and found that in addition to this neon cook, there was another thin, serious chef who was standing there and was seriously making sashimi.
"How do you call it." Fang Ze asked the names of the two, after all, they had been chatting for a long time, and they did not even know the other party's name.
"My name is Kojima. This is my older brother Hanyu." Kojima saw Fang Ze coming over and was very happy to introduce his two brothers to Fang Ze. Japanese materials and pointed out by Fang Ze companions. "
"The Japanese ingredients we made this time are absolutely authentic." Hanyu said to the two. "These sashimi will also participate in the climbing competition for a while and let everyone rate."
Oh.
Fang Ze looked at the number of sashimi on the table and found that Hanyu and Kojima did make a lot of sashimi. There is absolutely no way for the guests to finish it. Wait for a while and you can join the formal game.
So Hanyu and Kojima, the two brothers, saved the time of cooking a dish while waiting for a climbing competition.
What's more important is that since the diners on the first floor have spent a lot of money on tickets for ordinary food, you can be sure that there are more or less attributes of food.
However, there is still a great distance between food and foodies.
Therefore, the diners on the first floor do not give a high score for any dish that is really delicious, but they give a high score when they feel delicious. The score can obviously be very subjective.
In the case that other chefs still need to hide, and do not release their finale dishes prematurely to prevent them from being seen by other chefs, the two people, Kojima Hanyu, launched the sashimi early, and the diners will wait a while When eating, there will be a sense of familiarity.
In general, when ordinary people are struggling to choose that option, they tend to prefer the one they are familiar with.
Therefore, when this sashimi was launched in advance, when it was finally scored, it might give these two neon chefs a lot of extra points.
"I'll try it." Fang Ze took a piece of sashimi and tasted it, and it tasted particularly punchy. If it was just a taste, it would be nice. But if you eat more, Fang Ze can only stay away.
"Very good." Fang Ze still raised his thumbs and praised the two chefs.
Kojima and Hanyu saw Fang Ze's compliment and looked proud.
"I'll try it too." Liu Xingxing also took a sashimi and put it in his mouth.
Because of the appearance of Liu Xingxing's children, the two people of Kojima Hanyu didn't care much about Liu Xingxing.
But I did not expect that Liu Xingxing frowned after eating the first sashimi.
"What's wrong?" Fang Ze turned to ask him.
"It may be that children are not used to eating mustard." Kojima said easily without realizing the seriousness of the problem.
"There is something wrong with this mustard," Liu Yanxing said directly.
"Our mustard was shipped by neon in order to ensure authenticity, and there will be no problem at all." Kojima did not understand Liu Yixing's meaning, and thought that Liu Yixing was because he had not eaten a lot of mustard and was not used to it. .
"The mustard used in your daily food, if it is traditional, should be wasabi." Liu Ang Xing asked, looking up.
"Yes." Yu Sheng answered Liu Xingxing's question.
At this time, the two neon chefs realized that there might be something wrong with this child. After all, the mustard in the Japanese food and the mustard in the Chinese food are not the same kind of mustard. Ordinary diners actually know it. Not much.
"Do they use ordinary mustard?"
"No." Liu Xingxing took another sip, and then looked up at Kojima Ye Hansheng. "They use horseradish."
"What is horseradish?" Fangze asked.
"Because the price of wasabi is relatively high, there are also many people who use horseradish as a substitute for wasabi." Liu Xingxing said, "horseradish is also a kind of plant that is often used as an adjuvant such as grilled meat in the West, and its taste It ’s similar to wasabi. But more importantly, it ’s cheaper than wasabi.

Liu Xingxing pointed at the mustard on the sashimi and said, "You see that the color of this mustard is green and looks exactly the same as the color of the wasabi. In fact, the color of horseradish is pale yellow. It needs special measures Let the color of horseradish be the color of wasabi. "
"No special method was used," Kojima hurriedly explained. "Usually, the use of pigments is added, which will not change the taste and harm the human body."
"Pigment?" Liu Xingxing didn't understand what pigment meant, and looked up at Fangze.
"You think of edible pigments as things that can change the color of things but not the taste of things." Fang Ze explained briefly.
"Whether it will change the taste or not," said Liu Xingxing, pointing to these sashimi. "Since you're playing the banner of authentic sashimi, you should use traditional wasabi in Japanese ingredients instead of horseradish."
"Ahem." Kojima saw this child Liu Xingxing so righteous and pointed it out, hurried out of the platform and said to Fang Ze and Liu Xingxing, "Don't get me wrong, you first Do n’t say anything, I ’ll explain it to you slowly.
Kojima said to signal Fang Ze and Liu Xingxing to enter the platform, and then he bowed at Liu Xingxing and Fang Ze. Bad experience. "
"This is not a bad experience for us." Liu Xingxing said to Kojima, "Since you say that you are a traditional and authentic Japanese material, you should use the most traditional seasoning. And even if you want to innovate, It should be horseradish instead of wasabi. "
"It's like this," Kojima said to Liu Xingxing and Fang Ze. "In theory, we should use mustard, but in fact, at the Chinese food store in Huaxia, even if there is a high-end day with our neon chef The material shop is still using horseradish instead of wasabi. So we are worried that the use of wasabi in this competition will make diners think that our sashimi is not authentic. "
‘Really fresh. ’Fang Ze said silently in his heart.
"That's not the real reason," Liu said, suddenly pointing at the cabinet under the platform.
Fang Ze looked in the direction of Liu Xingxing's fingers, and found a water basin in the half-open cabinet. A verdant green plant was faintly visible above the water basin.
"You obviously prepared wasabi." Liu Jiuxing went on to Kojima and Hanyu. "The spicy flavor of wasabi is volatile and difficult to preserve. So wasabi made with wasabi is generally freshly ground, so I am afraid of contact. The air will taste worse afterwards. "
Kojima and Hanyu were directly frightened by Liu Xingxing's words. After all, this second-best thing is the most taboo in the chef industry.
The high prices of some foods were originally due to the difference in materials, and even the materials were fake.
So no matter how delicious it is, its meaning is completely lost.
"Although the taste of wasabi and horseradish is difficult to identify, they are completely different in eating." Liu Yixing then revealed the two neon chefs. "The common way to eat sashimi is to add mustard sauce in soy sauce and stir the fish raw. But wasabi is completely different. "
"Because the taste of the wasabi was stirred in the soy sauce, the taste would be destroyed, so the real way to eat the sashimi is to dip a small handful of wasabi on top of the sashimi and then dip the other side of the sashimi in the sauce Use chopsticks to put sashimi with wasabi in your mouth. Do not allow soy sauce to be in direct contact with wasabi. "
Liu Xingxing said, pointing to the soy sauce mustard prepared by the two neon chefs on the counter ~ EbookFREE.me ~ For your convenience, you mixed the mustard and soy sauce directly, so you have no intention of hiding yourself. Got the idea of ​​horseradish. The purpose of this is because you think that there is no real foodie in the first floor. "
"You keep wasabi to taste it on the upper floors of the noble people, because these noble people have eaten real sashimi. So you do n’t use it because people here are not used to eating wasabi. The wasabi is to save materials and fill it up. "
Liu Xingxing's remarks were relentless, but Han Sheng and Kojima had no way to refute them.
They did use horseradish instead of wasabi. Ordinary diners may not know it, but once it got big, it attracted the managers of this competition. Just find a professional gourmet to taste it.
Although replacing horseradish with horseradish will not make much difference to the taste of ordinary people, this is just like the top fps players using mouse macros, which is absolutely not allowed.
Even if your craftsmanship is top, subprime is good.
Even if you are strong, opening a plug-in means opening a plug-in.
This is not washable and is something that can destroy the career of any chef.
"Good materials are limited, this is understandable. But in the publicity, you must make it clear to your guests, and do not hide them because they do not understand. A chef is not worthy of being a chef if he cannot treat your guests with sincerity. ! "
"Well said!" A sudden approval came.
As soon as Fang Ze turned his head, it was found that although Xiaodao brought Fang Ze and Liu Xingxing behind the booth, because Liu Xingxing spoke too loudly just now, many onlookers rushed over to catch the last train and heard Liu Xingxing Speaking later.
