The story begins in Food Wars, when Alice took him home.

Now, when added to dishes, the flavor is amazing; when combined with pork belly, it imparts a unique aroma.

Senzaemon Nakiri closed his eyes and savored the aroma of the crispy roasted pork belly, which was the deepest flavor of the pork belly.

"Not only that, you also added minced garlic and anchovies to the pork, so that the meat has both the spiciness of garlic and the saltiness of anchovies."

The two ingredients, when ground and mixed, create a unique base flavor that greatly enhances the flavor profile of the grilled meat.

Beside him, Sen'yūin Nakiri also spoke up, saying that it was precisely because so many kinds of seasonings were used that the dish had such a rich and complex flavor.

"The key is the orange and lemon peels, which are arguably the most crucial step, as both of these peels contain essential oils."

Adding it brings a refreshing flavor to the grilled meat while balancing the heaviness of the fat.

Bai Yuan's voice rang out.

With each person talking, they quickly dissected the flavor profile of the crispy roasted pork belly.

With each bite, your tongue can taste the tender and juicy pork belly, as well as the rich flavor of the spices that penetrate deep into the bone marrow.

The outermost crispy layer provides an even richer texture; the combination of crispness and tenderness makes this dish even more flavorful!

"The final sauce is a blend of parsley, mint, capers, anchovies, lemon juice and Dijon mustard."

This creates a flavor profile that combines freshness, sweetness, sourness, and a hint of spiciness, adding more variety to the grilled meat.

"However, I still prefer these potato balls because they absorb the aroma of the spice oil and are slow-roasted at a low temperature, making them crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, with a rich texture."

"The vegetable salad also tasted pretty good. It was made in a very classic Italian style and it really helped to cut through the greasiness of the meat."

The group discussed the dish animatedly, each person chiming in with their own words. Although it looked like just a crispy roasted pork belly dish, a lot of thought and effort had been put into it.

The hot soup, made with butter, flour, and chicken broth, has an exceptionally rich flavor that perfectly balances the greasiness of the dishes.

"There's another half of roasted meat over there, bring it over."

As they discussed, Bai Yuan started calculating the time, and then asked the three excited people to bring the remaining half of the roasted meat from their cooking station.

"Okay, I'll cut it for you right away."

This made the others a little puzzled, guessing that Bai Yuan might not have eaten enough, so Nakiri Kaede took the initiative to step forward and offered to help him cut the meat.

"No need, just take the whole thing."

Faced with Nakiri Kaede's enthusiasm, Bai Yuan shook his head and coldly told him to take the grilled meat over untouched.

"it is good."

Nakiri Kaede didn't say anything more, nodded in agreement, and ran to the cooking station to bring the remaining crispy roasted pork belly to Shirayuki.

"Young friend Bai Yuan, what's going on here...?"

Seeing Bai Yuan suddenly draw his kitchen knife, Nakiri Sen'yomori asked in confusion on his right.

Because of the way his older brother addressed him, he now calls him "Little Friend Bai Yuan," which sounds more intimate.

"We will make improvements to this dish."

Without going into details, Bai Yuan simply answered, picked up the white wine jug that Nakiri Alice had prepared, and poured it onto the Wuqu sword.

He then drew the Wenqu sword and clashed it with the Wuqu sword at an astonishing angle.

In an instant, tiny sparks appeared at the point of impact between the two blades. Due to the baijiu, flames quickly coiled around the two blades, which Bai Yuan held in his hand like divine weapons from hell!

"Look at this area. Because of the oven temperature, the heat is not even, so the color is lighter."

But that's no excuse for you to ignore it. Raising the surrounding temperature with flames will ensure they are heated evenly.

As Bai Yuan spoke, he placed the knife on it. The crispy skin, which was not perfect to begin with, blossomed with life for the second time under the blessing of the flames.

"That's your first mistake. The second is the cooking time. The best time to bake this dish is four hours."

Three and a half hours of slow baking at a low temperature, followed by half an hour of high temperature baking, instead of using the same temperature for two hours.

Following my method will result in more layers of flavor in the dish, and the taste will be significantly enhanced.

Seeing the flame on the knife go out, Bai Yuan gently blew on it and then asked the second question about the dish.

"Next is my personal preference, the second way to cut this crispy roasted pork belly in tornado: cut it into thin slices like char siu."

As he spoke, Bai Yuan shook the Wuqu Blade in his hand. Everyone present saw a white light flash before their eyes, but no one closed their eyes.

Everyone stared intently at the knife.

With astonishing speed, the Wuqu knife rose and fell, turning the crispy roasted pork belly in front of him into a thin slice about two millimeters thick.

Of course, this is not Bai Yuan's limit. But if the slices are less than two millimeters thick, the outer skin will be brittle and lose its texture and flavor.

Two millimeters is just right, ensuring both the crispy texture of the whirlwind-baked pork belly and the full flavor of each piece of meat.

Pour the sauce prepared by Nakiri Kaede over the top, and Bai Yuan continued, "The best time to eat it is to let it cool for thirty minutes before cutting. We've already waited for several hours, so there's no need to save another twenty minutes."

This is the third question for this dish. Give it a try—the modified crispy tornado-style roasted pork belly.

"With just a few minor modifications, the dish's grade has been raised to Special Grade Three. That's too exaggerated!"

Pick up a very thin slice of crispy roasted pork belly and put it in your mouth to enjoy.

Senzaemon Nakiri's eyes widened instantly. With his years of experience, he could naturally sense the improvement in the taste of the dish.

This improvement is not minor, but exponential; the extremely thin slices of meat melt in your mouth, bringing a rich and satisfying flavor.

The crispy crust is the only source of texture, yet it doesn't feel monotonous. After a slight chew, it releases a salty and fragrant aroma, blending together with the rich flavors.

"So this is the right way to do it."

Savoring the rich flavor in her mouth, Nakiri Ranye murmured to herself, while Nakiri Nagi took out a notebook and pen from her pocket and began to write.

For Bai Yuan, this was just a simple instruction, but for them, it was a guiding light in their culinary journey, giving them a clear direction to move forward, which was of great significance!

"Thank you very much for your guidance. Please accept my apology. I shouldn't have said those awful things back then. I'm the one who should apologize the most."

Looking at Bai Yuan, who had a normal expression, she thought of the outrageous things she had said when they first met.

The more Nakiri Kaede thought about it, the more she felt like a scoundrel, so she raised her hand and slapped herself a few times.

"Brother Feng..."

"Don't stop me, this is what I deserve."

The sudden attack startled everyone present. Nakiri Nagi and Nakiri Ranye rushed forward to stop him, but he shoved them away.

"In that case, I'll join you too!"

"I also……"

Seeing Nakiri Kaede's resolute expression, Nakiri Nagi and Nakiri Ranyo immediately understood his plan. They then exchanged a glance and slapped themselves as well.

"Clap"

The scene was immediately filled with the sound of slapping.

Bai Yuan saw all of this, but said nothing, simply watching them silently.

Under such gazes, their strength increased, slapping faces until they swelled up, and in the end, they even felt a bit of pleasure.

"Okay, I forgive you."

After being slapped more than twenty times, Bai Yuan felt much better and spoke up to stop him.

"Thank you."

Upon hearing Bai Yuan's words, Nakiri Kaede smiled. Compared to the other two, every strike he made was a real blow, and blood even trickled from the corner of his mouth.

Nagi and Ranye, concerned about their pride, did not use their full strength. Although their faces turned very red, they were not injured.

Bai Yuan saw all of this and understood, but he said nothing and simply placed the dishes of both sides together.

Chapter 143 Erina, do you like Bai Yuan?

"I have tasted both dishes and have made a comparison in my mind."

Alice Nakiri and Erina Nakiri's "Dragon's Belly" skillfully combines pork intestines, eel, and pork belly, utilizing the unique characteristics of each ingredient to create an unparalleled and exquisite flavor.

"And Nakiri Kaede, Nakiri Nagi, and Nakiri Ran's whirlwind crispy grilled pork belly, you've brought the flavor of pork belly to its absolute peak."

Looking at the five people standing in front of him, Bai Yuan slowly spoke.

The two participants.

One approach combines the characteristics of different ingredients, while the other uses spices to bring a particular ingredient to its fullest potential.

Both sides perfectly showcased their individual strengths and incorporated them into the dishes, enhancing their flavor.

It can be said that the theme was accomplished very well.

"The final victor is..."

He exchanged a glance with Senzaemon Nakiri and Umori-in Nakiri, then looked at the white paper in front of him and picked up a brush, dipping it in ink.

"The dragon pierces the tiger's belly."

Almost simultaneously, the three of them wrote down their answers, picked up their papers, showed the words on them to the audience, and announced the final results.

"Great, we won!"

This caused Nakiri Kaede's face to show disbelief, while Nakiri Alice and Nakiri Erina crossed their hands, revealing victorious expressions.

"why?"

Although he wanted to keep the question to himself, he found he couldn't, so he asked in a hoarse voice.

"Your dishes are delicious, but you only use one ingredient: pork belly."

Despite continuously adding spices to make the pork belly taste better, it's still just a single-core dish; the upper limit of its flavor is already set.

Alice and Erina's "Dragon-Through-Tiger Belly" combines the essence of pork intestines, eel, and pork belly, allowing them to blend together.

Although no single part was specifically refined, the flavors combined to create a significant improvement in the dish.

Comparing the taste of the two dishes, although both are of the highest grade, there are still differences between the two.

Alice Nakiri passed the Guangzhou Special Grade Chef assessment, demonstrating her skill level approaching Special Grade One Star. With the help of Erina Nakiri's God Tongue, this dish's quality has indeed reached Special Grade One Star.

As for Nakiri Kaede and the other two, although they all used their full strength, the huge gap in their strength could not be bridged by simply unleashing their power.

Moreover, Alice Nakiri was also on high alert, giving her all and performing exceptionally well in order to teach her three cousins ​​who had insulted Brother Baiyuan a lesson. As a result, the gap between the two sides widened even further.

"Single-core, multi-core..."
