When the audience saw Liu Xiaofeng take out the snapper, they forgot to scold him. For a while, they only praised the ingredient.
The reason for this was precisely because snapper was the most delicious ingredient in the hearts of the Japanese, and it was the only fish known as the " King of Japanese Fish."
In Japan, there was a saying," Sakura in flowers, snapper in fish." This once again proved the high status of snapper in the hearts of the Japanese. On the one hand, it was really delicious. On the other hand, it was influenced by traditional culture. Most importantly, it was not very expensive. Ordinary working families could often eat it.
Thousands of years ago, during the Jomon Era, the Japanese began to eat snapper. Of course, this didn't mean that snapper was better than tuna and salmon.
It could only be said that it carried some emotions. Whether it was delicious or not ultimately depended on the cooking method.
" To think that you thought of using sea bream as an ingredient. It's the best choice in all aspects. Moreover, it's the season where sea bream is abundant, and it's also the season where sea bream tastes the best all year round…"
Rina turned around and stared at Liu Xiaofeng. Her tone was filled with praise, but if one looked carefully, one would find that Rina's eyes were filled with disdain.
The cooking tables of the two contestants were not far from each other. As long as they turned around, they could see the situation on the other side.
"Ha, thank you for your praise. Then, what ingredients did you prepare? Don't cover it mysteriously. Why don't you open it and let everyone see?”Liu Xiaofeng turned around and pointed at the food cart beside Rina.
"Hmph, I'll make you admit your defeat this time!”
After Rina finished speaking, she used her right hand to remove the white cloth covering the food cart. She saw that there were several kinds of seafood ingredients in the food cart.
There were angler fish, prawns, and a large piece of fish that many people could not recognize.
Just from the color of the ingredients, one could tell that they were all fresh seafood ingredients. Among them, prawns and angler fish were still swaying. It was obvious that they were fresh ingredients that had been taken out of the water not long ago.
"Yo, you've prepared a lot of seafood ingredients. As expected of the Top Ten. These fresh seafood would cost a lot of money, right?”Liu Xiaofeng said this on purpose. He also knew that it was too easy to get precious ingredients based on Rina's family background and her ranking in the Top Ten.
Rina turned around and snorted at the queen.""In this battle, I will let you know that the prestige of the Ten Heroes is not something someone like you can challenge!”
"Here we go again…Please, Young Miss, you were the one who initiated this war against me. I was forced to fight.”Liu Xiaofeng said helplessly.
"I…I don't care. Anyway, you have no chance of winning this time!”Rina couldn't say anything, so she turned around and went to the cooking table. She took the lead and placed a fresh angler fish on the chopping board.
Rina took the initiative and started to process the ingredients.
Pa!
A fresh angler fish was still jumping on the chopping board. Rina quickly took out a few knives and stabbed them into the fin, tail, and head of the angler fish.
The angler fish was fixed on the cutting board and could not move. Then, she picked up a kitchen knife and dissected the angler fish with extremely skilled techniques.
Generally speaking, there were two ways to deal with angler fish. One was to fix the fish on the chopping board like Rina did.
The other method was to hang them upside down and cut off each part. This method of exerting strength was called "hanging cut".
Hanging and cutting obviously required more advanced techniques, but it was faster to process, and it would retain the freshness and meat quality of the fish to the greatest extent.
However, Rina didn't use the hanging cutting method. When the cooking time was sufficient, she didn't use the hanging cutting method. Instead, she used this stable method of cooking on the chopping board.
After the dissection, Rina only took the tail meat and placed it on a large plate. As for the other parts of the meat, they were placed on a plate, as if she had no time to think about it.
Then, Rina took the lobster out of the food cart. This lobster was the size and length of half an arm, and there were patterns on the shell.
Seeing this characteristic, some people had already recognized the species of the prawn. It was a rare species of prawn meat-Asian Tiger Prawn.
The reason why Asian Tiger Prawns were a precious ingredient was not only because of their low production, but also because of their taste.
This kind of lobster was relatively large in size and mainly fed on small shrimps. Therefore, its meat was free of impurities. Compared to other lobsters, the shrimp meat was purer and more delicious.
The tiger prawn's two big claws were tied up, but Rina was not worried. She picked up a bright kitchen knife and cut along the shell on its back.
The processing of prawns was relatively simple. It was done by removing the shell and cutting off the prawn thread! However, he saw that the white and tender meat inside the lobster shell that had been cut open was like tofu!
Then, he saw her carefully take out the lobster paste. This was the essence of the tiger prawns. However, everyone was a little puzzled. Taking out the lobster paste alone, was he preparing to cook something separately?
Then, Rina began to process a piece of fish with a blue skin in the food cart. When she picked up the piece of fish, the curly-haired judge who was about 40 years old opened his mouth in surprise.
"Oh, oh, oh. After angler fish and tiger prawns, we're preparing to process an extremely rare and precious ingredient this time-black tuna!”
The black tuna, also known as the black true black, was also known as the bluefin tuna, and was known as the " king of the naked body." The catch was even rarer than tiger prawns, and the meat was the best ingredient among tuna!
The meat was fresh and delicate, and the taste was refreshing and sweet. It tasted excellent raw, and it was also one of the more expensive fish ingredients.
"It's…it's really bluefin tuna, and the part used is the big belly. This is the part with the most fat in the belly of the tuna! The snowflake patterns were clearly visible, and the meat was red. It was the performance of top-grade ingredients!”Another woman in a kimono, who looked to be in her thirties, said excitedly.
The last judge with a mustache stroked his chin and nodded slightly."As expected of the Ten Talents of Togetsu. Other than the common angler fish, all of them are top-notch ingredients that even top-notch restaurants might not be able to produce. Top-notch ingredients and the craftsmanship of the Ten Heroes. I'm really looking forward to the seafood feast she'll bring out later ~"
"Mr. Boateng, you're drooling. Please pay attention to your image.”The kimono woman sitting next to the mustached man reminded him, her expression full of disdain.
Boateng finally wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, but he didn't mind at all."Is there a problem with admitting your appetite in front of top-notch delicious ingredients? On the other hand, Madam Mingya, you always pretend to be reserved at the beginning, but when the dishes are served, you can't control yourself more than anyone else. Am I right, Mr. Yuanshan?"
"Alright, alright. Every time the two of you get together, you have to attack each other to get by. Can't you just watch the game quietly?”Yuanshan Jinye couldn't stand it and said.
It was obvious that this was not the first time these three people had sat here for the review. They knew each other and were regular guests at the review table.
