At noon, the review of the "Kikushitachi Cooking Contest now officially begins." Shao An, Le Yuan! You're ready! So, let me ask you in addition to the Sichuan mapo tofu that pays attention to the five flavors of numbness, spicy, color, fragrance and hotness... So the two of you talk about it, what is the key to the sixth taste of magic mapo tofu? Admiral Li sat on the throne and looked at the two people opposite him and asked questions.

"It's in—crisp." The two replied in unison.

"The so-called crispy is the crunchy texture... The sixth flavor I asked for was crispy," Admiral Li affirmed the two of them's answers, "Now I'll try the mapo tofu that you two made!" ”

As soon as the two dishes were opened, the aroma and waves of people came to the face, and Admiral Li observed the two dishes, "The dishes on both sides look very good, and the performance of the two is outstanding in the five flavors of numb, spicy, color, fragrant, and hot!" Now it looks like the two sides are evenly divided! ”

"Then I'll start tasting Shao An's mapo tofu first." Admiral Li put a spoonful of mapo tofu into his mouth, and then suddenly in a daze, he picked out the tofu in the mapo tofu.

Looking at this picture that is exactly the same as the original plot, Le Yuan already knows the ending, and Shao An still hasn't been able to recall the dishes made by Chef Abbey.

After some appreciation of Shao An's mapo tofu, Shao An's face already showed a smile of imminent victory.

And Admiral Li was rinsing his mouth, ready to taste Leyuan's mapo tofu.

When Admiral Li sent Le Yuan's mapo tofu into his mouth to taste it carefully, then the whole person stayed for a while, and after he came to his senses, he directly picked up a large plate and ate a whole plate of mapo tofu.

Without saying a word, he ate all the way and drank a bowl of water.

"I have indeed tasted the mapo tofu of the two of you, the sixth taste I requested, both of them found it, Shao An studied the crisp of tofu, and Le Yuan studied other aspects, it is true that Shao An made mapo tofu that can be called a combination of six flavors, but the crisp of mapo tofu has nothing to do with tofu."

"Big... My lord! So..."Shao An said tremblingly.

"You're doing a good job... But that's not magic mapo tofu! Your careful handling of tofu will indeed make the eaters applaud, but it doesn't stop there... You are not the only one in China who knows how to process tofu, and I am afraid there are thousands of people. ”

"However, when I swallowed Le Yuan's mapo tofu for the first time, I knew that the mapo tofu he made was the only magic mapo tofu in this world, and it had a more indescribable special feeling than what I ate ten years ago, and this plate was beyond the magic mapo tofu ten years ago. And the crispiness of this flavor lies in the ground meat. The refreshing taste of the meat is the true essence of the sixth taste......"

Admiral Li picked out the ground meat of the two of them and placed it on the control plate. "Now I'm going to show you both the auditory and the visual aspects of what is the difference in the taste of the ground meat between the two of you......

Admiral Li put the spoon on Shao An's ground meat, "First of all, let's take a look at Shao An's ground meat......" With his words, Shao An's ground meat was easily squeezed, and a trace of soup was squeezed out.

"Next is Le Yuan's ground meat... See clearly. With the squeezing of the spoon, the spoon touched the disciple with a "card bang", and the ground meat was cut whole, compared to Shao An's ground meat and cut continuously... It's just deformed......

"It's unbelievably meaty... No matter what kind of meat it is, no matter how delicate the technique is, there should be remnants of twisted tendons! And the whole of the ground meat and each small piece of ground meat should have uneven color! However, Le Yuan's ground meat is so uniform after being heated, and there are no tendons left!

The result is such a smooth and refreshing taste! What kind of meat is this? ”

"Admiral Li, Magic Mapo Tofu, you shouldn't just test our cooking skills, right?" Le Yuan didn't answer but asked Admiral Li instead, seeing that Admiral Li didn't answer, Le Yuan faced Shao An, "Shao An, haven't you remembered your master's teachings at all in the past two years?" If you still have dim sum, then you can't be unaware of this mapo tofu. “

Listening to Le Yuan's words, Shao An was stunned for a moment, and then pointed at Le Yuan in surprise, "Could it be that it was ...... who made the magic mapo tofu ten years ago" "That's right, it was our master, Master Abbei, who invented the magic mapo tofu." And the reason why the meat of this mapo tofu has such a taste is because it is not meat at all! "What, not meat!" "He said that the ground meat of mapo tofu is not meat!" "It's not meat, it's something that looks like meat

……………………

In a wave of surprise, questioning. Le Yuan told the truth.

"Actually, that's the meat, the soybeans that are known as the meat of the vegetable garden." Le Yuan placed a soybean on the table. "These soybeans are soaked in water, then cooked in stock, then flattened, crushed, and then used in sauce to give the soybeans the full flavor! The moisture and flavor of the sauce give the soybeans a fragrant gravy! ”

"Wait a minute, the meat flavor you created with this method, if you cook it in a pot, it should all flow into the soup of mapo tofu, and it is impossible to leave any meat flavor at all!" Shao An questioned.

"That's right, so I finally fried it in the pan to preserve the flavor of the sauce, and secondly, to give the soybean the right amount of hardness to make it chew more like real meat." Le Yuan looked at Shao An, "I think the reason why Admiral Li took this as an exam question is probably because of Master Abbe." When you and Master Abbe entered the Juxia Downstairs, I was wondering if you and the master had known each other a long time ago, and when you mentioned that you had eaten magic mapo tofu somewhere in Sichuan, I thought of the mapo tofu that I had eaten at the master's place, and when I saw the yearbook, I was even more sure that you were talking about the master's mapo tofu. "Yearbook, what's going on?" Admiral Li was very surprised by Le Yuan's mention of the yearbook. "According to the Sichuan Industrial Yearbook, about ten years ago... There was a pandemic in the vicinity of the contamination of cattle, and there was no meat to eat at all, which meant that mapo tofu could not be made at all that year. And when everything returned to normal, there was no need for this dish to circulate, so I also ate that special mapo tofu once when I was learning to cook. ”

"Has this ever happened, but can you understand the ingredients of this dish from the dishes you have eaten once?" Admiral Li seemed surprised by Le Yuan's special palate.

"Yes, in the three years that I have been studying cooking in Ju Xia, I can remember every dish of Chef Abbe......" Le Yuan replied with great certainty.

"Shao An..., you should have tasted this taste before, right..."Admiral Li squinted at Shao An.

"It's... Yes. Shao An replied with some embarrassment.

"I think you all know the result of this game...! I've been thinking about this sixth flavor for ten years, but I still can't think of a reason... Tofu and meat are blended together, just like the magic mapo tofu that plays a graceful melody on the tongue, and now everything is suddenly clear, well done A-Yuan! ”

"Admiral Li, I want to temporarily step down from the position of head chef downstairs of Ju Xia, so that Liu Pleia, who is the son of the former head chef, will be the head chef by sous chef Mira to take the position of head chef before becoming a special chef."

"What, don't you know how important this chef's actions are?"

"That's why I made this suggestion, Liu Pleiades has superhuman talent, it's only a matter of time before he surpasses me, although he has a good foundation now, but he still needs to be honed, so I hope he will go to Guangzhou Nanxian Restaurant to study, and then take the special chef exam in Guangzhou next year to prove himself."

"If he really has such a talent as you say, I promise your advice."

In this way, Ju went downstairs to survive, and the little master Liu Yuexing also embarked on a journey to Nanxian Restaurant in Guangzhou, and after saying goodbye to Mira and Master Abbe, Le Yuan disappeared from this world in the uninhabited mountains and forests.
