Food Wars: Live Broadcast in the Prison of Food

Chapter 55: The Domineering Devil Horned Crocodile

When they started processing the meat, they found that in addition to the meat's extreme toughness making it difficult to cut, the meat's heat resistance was unexpectedly good, as if it was protected by a heat-insulating layer.

Compared to the snake frog, this piece of devil-horned crocodile meat seemed to truly show them the difficulty of processing ingredients from another world.

The meat was finally roasted.

A faint and tempting aroma gently penetrated into the nasal cavities of several people, stimulating the cerebral cortex to issue instructions to secrete a large amount of saliva.

Soma Yukihira and Gin Dojima looked at each other.

Eat them one after another.

boom--

Shocked!

Soma Yukihira and Gin Dojima ate the devil-horned crocodile meat and felt a fierce tremor in their hearts.

The rich gravy, the chewy texture, and the spicy taste that comes from nowhere fill your mouth.

It was as if they had been to the Palon Islands in an alien world, and saw with their own eyes the enormous devil-horned crocodile covered in black scales, which swallowed them up in one gulp with murderous intent.

For some reason, I felt my mind and spirit being severely shocked.

After the meat is swallowed into the throat, the spicy taste lingers in the mouth and spreads domineeringly, and the body also becomes hot.

Soma Yukihira's face was filled with shock.

Is this what C-grade ingredients taste like?

“It really tastes amazing. Just based on the flavor of the ingredients, it can be considered an excellent dish!”

Dojima Gin couldn't help but sigh.

On the other side, Erina Nakiri, who ate the devil-horned crocodile meat right after them, had an even worse reaction.

"Well--!"

The overbearing taste swept through the mouth.

The Divine Tongue continued to analyze the taste of the Devil-Horned Crocodile meat.

The more she analyzed it, the more feedback she got that it was delicious.

The endless flow of dopamine made her mind go blank for a moment.

Erina Nakiri's legs went weak and she couldn't help but put her hands on the cooking counter to steady herself.

At this moment, there was a slight blush on her face, not because of the spiciness or the delicious taste.

“This smell.”

Erina Nakiri stared at the large portion of unprocessed devil-horned crocodile meat on the table.

There is no doubt that using this flavor properly is the key to saving her mother who ran away from home due to being tortured by the Divine Tongue!

But there is a difficult problem waiting for her. No, it is a problem that all the chefs present need to face.

"What ingredients should be used to deal with such a strong taste?"

"Since you said we're going to cook it, it's obviously not as simple as just asking us to grill it and serve it."

“But no matter what ingredients it is, it will be defeated by its overbearing taste and take away its color.”

“What should I do?”

To put it in an analogy, the taste of the devil horn crocodile meat is equivalent to the strong and spicy 50-proof liquor, while the other ordinary ingredients are equivalent to the bland lemonade. How to match them well is undoubtedly a big challenge.

Si Yingshi put down the chopsticks in his hand.

Recover from the shock.

"Sure enough."

“This ingredient is resisting.”

“There is also a huge feeling of anger.”

For a moment, he was silent. After truly feeling the taste and emotions of the ingredients, he didn't know how to deal with it.

"Now you understand why I prepared so much." Yang Che clapped his hands to call everyone's attention.

"How to make good use of this flavor so that the dish you present is not completely dominated by it is the subject you need to tackle next."

"The ingredients here are designed to give you ample opportunities for trial and error, and I'll give you plenty of time this time."

"Well, maybe in 15 days. One day after 15 days, I'll come again."

"I am looking forward to the dishes you will prepare by then."

Giving 15 days was the result Yang Che came to after careful consideration.

To deal with the devil horned crocodile, he couldn't just give it half a day to cook like he did with the snake frog. That would be too difficult.

You know, just the D-level ingredient Kaila crocodile alone, unless it is simply fried, boiled or roasted, it will take a certain amount of time to develop a high-level dish based on it.

What’s more, it is a demon-horned crocodile which is one level higher.

Moreover, that is when there are many more fantasy ingredients in the food prisoner world. Because there are many fantasy ingredients, there is no need to worry that the taste of the entire dish will be completely suppressed by the taste of the ingredients themselves.

However, even without using other high-end ingredients, some excellent chefs among the food prisoners can still make highly accomplished dishes by combining simple ingredients.

At first, Yang Che thought that it would be a bit difficult for the chefs in the world of Food Wars! to reach this level during the initial period of time.

But after tasting yesterday's food and witnessing Tsukasa Tsukasa listening to the sounds of ingredients and Erina Nakiri who seemed to have evolved her divine tongue, he realized that he had underestimated the chefs in the food wars world.

The reason why the time limit is 15 days is, on the one hand, to give them sufficient time to prepare, and on the other hand, it will not be long before the puffer whales return to land to lay eggs.

He needs to go back early to prepare.

The cooling time for each use of the portal is exactly 7 days. After 6 days, the cooling period ends and he returns to the prisoner-eating world to capture the puffer whale. If he wants to return to the world of Food Wars!, he needs another days of cooling time.

It takes more than ten days to go back and forth like this.

Hearing what he said, Dojima Gin was silent for a moment.

"Fifteen days? Commander, I think I need to take some time off."

"Okay, I've approved it. You can focus on your research and don't need to worry about the resort."

Nakiri Senzaemon nodded slightly.

"Well, I will go back later to hand over the relevant matters of the residential training."

Dojima Gin said.

Si Yingshi, who was standing by, looked surprised as he listened to their conversation.

"The residential training has reached this stage again."

"In that case, Yukihira, I'm afraid it won't be that easy for you and Ms. Nakiri to make time."

"Ah? Why do you say that?"

"Don't get excited. The residential training is an important exam for first-year students in Totsuki. There has never been a precedent of anyone skipping the exam."

"If you are applying for leave, it will require five or more votes from the Ten Elite Council to approve it."

"Of course I know your reasons and I will give you a vote. Um. I can also get you a vote from Longdan."

"But the other people are not so easy to convince, especially when things like ours cannot be easily shared with others."

Si Yingshi said weakly.

"So this is ah."

"Hehe, it's okay. I can just ask Isshiki-senpai for help. And Nakiri is also one of the Ten, so I'll have four votes."

"We can find a way to get the remaining vote."

Soma Yukihira himself is quite optimistic about this.

Nakiri Senzaemon then spoke slowly:
"Don't worry about that. I'll take care of it."

"Okay, Commander, I feel relieved with your words."

Erina Nakiri on the side was a little surprised. The Ten Best Council held great power and was responsible for deciding most of the school's affairs. Grandpa had never interfered in the matters concerning the Ten Best Council. This was the rule he set when he first established Totsuki. Was he planning to break it this time?
