Food Wars: Live Broadcast in the Prison of Food

Chapter 39 Thousand Flows
"Oh? So that sheep can fly, it's a rare creature."

Up ahead, Zhen Zhenzhen intentionally slowed down to wait for Yang Che, originally thinking that he would use that rather amazing air-stepping technique to catch up.

But I didn't expect that I would ride on that wingless sheep.

It’s no wonder that he didn’t know about the Flying Cotton Sheep. There are more than tens of thousands of ingredients in the world of gourmet food, and new and rare creatures are often born.

It’s pretty good if you can recognize most of them.

In this world, there is no Pokémon encyclopedia where you can know the information of a creature with just a scan.

Many times, the creatures discovered are unknown, and their strength and whether they can be eaten are all unknown.

Therefore, if you are a gourmet hunter who is committed to exploring unknown ingredients, you will face greater risks.

From this point of view, the system's ability to identify capture levels and the newly enabled function of scanning basic biological qualities are very useful.

The two flew for about ten minutes.

Arrived at a smaller open space.

Although Yang Che didn't find anything, since Zhen Zhenzhen stayed here, this must be the Yunyin Restaurant.

So he opened his eyes of observing qi again.

Sure enough, the white air flowing in front of me outlined the ancient building.

Yang Che went in with Zhen Zhenzhen.

Inside, a man wearing red ninja clothes, wrapped tightly all over his body, was already sitting in the hallway with standard etiquette to greet them.

"Welcome to Yunyin Restaurant."

"I'm Chef Qianliu, please give me your guidance."

Judging from the voice, it's a woman.

And judging from the fact that she was already waiting here, it was obvious that she had already noticed them before they came in.

"I don't have an appointment, it's okay."

Yang Che asked, ten-star restaurants like this usually have a lot of rules, some only entertain special guests, some don't open for a long time, and decide when to open based on the chef's mood.

Even for stores that don’t require so many requirements, most of them still require an appointment to enter.

The difficulty of making this kind of appointment is quite exaggerated. At least from Yang Che's experience, it is as difficult as smearing smelly durian on Sunny's face.

In response to this question, Qianliu gave a gentle smile.

“Of course, there are many guests who may not be able to arrive at the restaurant even if they have a reservation voucher.”

“Thank you so much for discovering our restaurant.”

Then she turned her head to Zhen Zhenzhen who was silent beside her and said:
"Master Zhen, long time no see. The ingredients for this time are ready."

Zhen Zhenzhen nodded.

"Haha, in that case, serve the food quickly."

Then he said to Yang Che who was looking at the restaurant:
"Ming Fei, Qian Liu's cooking skills are pretty good, you can look forward to it."

heard this title.

Yang Che had a thousand complaints in his mind.

What the hell is Ming Fei? Are you calling me? There is a limit to remembering a person's name wrongly, even if it's not Yang, there is no Che either!

Am I the drunkard from the next-door studio?
But Yang Che knew that it was useless to correct mistakes, and it would only make them worse. Instead of doing that, he decided to obey him and sit down with Master Zhen and wait silently.

He couldn't help but look forward to what kind of food Qianliu could serve.

This chef is Chiru, who was ranked 15th among chefs in the last food festival.
Countless people want to try her cooking.

However, the harsh environment of the Lost Forest and the special building materials of the Yunyin Restaurant blocked the originally steady flow of customers.

Therefore, at this time of day, there was not a single customer in this quaint restaurant!

Not long after, Chef Qianliu came over with a tray with a bottle of wine and two glasses on it.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. First, let's have an aperitif. This is kelp wine made from the broth extracted from kelp stone." Yang Che had heard of kelp stone. The water temperature for extracting broth must start from 3 degrees Celsius and rise by 1 degree every hour. At the same time, the kelp stone must be slowly immersed at a speed of one centimeter per hour.

This process must be done manually. During this time, if the stone is shifted by 1 cm, the broth will stop flowing.

This is a special cooking ingredient that takes at least five days to prepare.

Because the requirements were too strict, Yang Che had never drunk it.

Seeing Master Zhen, he picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.

Yang Che followed his movements and picked up the wine glass to drink.

"Please wait!"

As soon as Qianliu's reminder came out, the originally clear wine in Yang Che's cup instantly turned black, and the aroma of the wine disappeared.

But when I put it in my mouth, it just felt like I was drinking plain water, without any flavor.

“Delicious food gone”

"I'm sorry I didn't explain it in advance. There is a fixed action when drinking kelp wine. If you are careless, the delicious taste will evaporate."

"Besides, that action requires a lot of patience"

Chef Qianliu demonstrated to him what movements should be made and explained that it needs to be maintained for at least ten minutes to prevent the delicious taste of the kelp wine from being lost.

"Master Zhen can do this because he has completely understood the secret of food. The ingredients themselves have recognized his mind, so there is no need for complicated steps."

Speaking of this, Chef Qianliu's eyes revealed longing.

The profound meaning of food was an area she had never set foot in. She had only cultivated the profound meaning of food to an advanced stage. The distance between her and the profound meaning of food seemed to be within reach, but in reality, there was still a huge gap between them.

Maybe you will suddenly realize it at some point, but you may never understand it in your entire life.

As someone who is devoted to delicate cooking, how could she not yearn for the profound meaning of food?

Food righteousness, food righteousness again.
After hearing what Qian Liu said, Yang Che could only try the etiquette movements demonstrated by the former and try to drink the kelp wine.

Although the etiquette for this wine, which only existed in rumors, was strict, he had no intention of giving it up.

This maintenance must be maintained for nearly 15 minutes, and the movements cannot be relaxed at all
During this time, one dish after another was presented by Chef Qianliu.

Respectively:
Sunshine cheese: must be eaten under sunlight, otherwise it will become hard.
Million Tomato: Carefully peel off the countless layers of thick skin one by one. When tasting, the slightest force will break the entire tomato.

Star Rice: After being washed and cooked grain by grain, the rice looks like sparkling stars in the bowl. You must not blink when tasting it, otherwise the taste of the whole bowl of rice will go bad in an instant.

Each one has different strange requirements. According to the chef, these ingredients are extremely delicate, which is why this seemingly complicated way of eating them is necessary.

She protects these delicate ingredients from being eaten by rude, impatient customers who do not understand food etiquette or are ungrateful for the food.

That's why she chose to open the restaurant deep in the forest. If anyone could reach it easily, it would be very troublesome.

Yang, who was trying to drink the kelp wine while maintaining etiquette, remained silent when he heard her say this.
According to Chef Qianliu's classification, he might also be classified as one of those who were denied a meal.
Fortunately, maybe because he was able to see the Kumogakure Restaurant (by cheating), or maybe because he came with Master Zhen, Chef Qianliu was quite friendly to him.
Although many of these ingredients require complicated methods to eat.

But Zhen Zhenzhen was like a gust of wind sweeping away fallen leaves, and her chopsticks even left afterimages, quickly clearing the plates on the table.
Those rules and requirements seemed to be all ignored.

Soon, the empty bowls beside Master Zhen had piled up to a height of more than a person.
Yang Che had just now completed the etiquette requirements of drinking kelp wine and finally took the first sip of the wine.

This is the magic of food meaning. There are many ingredients that have strict requirements and delicate ingredients, which require mastering the food meaning in order to be cooked and tasted.

Now, these can still be eaten through patience and complicated methods, but the more delicate ingredients cannot be eaten without a grateful heart and being sensed by the ingredients.

Of course, there is another way. In the original book, there seems to be another way that is completely different from Shiyi.

Food pressure——!!

Use absolute strength and willpower to suppress the will of the ingredients!

No matter how delicate or strict the ingredients are, they can be crushed roughly.

This is a relatively evil artistic conception.

Most importantly, he didn't know how to practice this way.

When Yang Che thought of this, he was shocked.
"The method that the old man said is suitable for me, could it be food pressure?"
