The story of Shokugeki begins when Alice picks him up and brings him home

"I see. Teacher Bai Yuan, you know a lot."

After hearing the explanation, Mito Yumei nodded, and then looked at Bai Yuan with admiration. Originally, she just came here to give it a try and didn't hold out much hope.

Unexpectedly, Bai Yuan really understood it!

"Of course. Teacher Bai Yuan's "Yuan" means "profoundly knowledgeable."

After hearing Mito Yumei's praise, Bai Yuan hadn't spoken yet, but Nakiri Alice on the side spoke first.

Seeing that proud little expression, if you didn’t know better you would think she was the one being praised.

"Okay, go do it quickly."

After putting all the food on the ground back into the basket and handing it to Mito Yumei, Bai Yuan patted her shoulder to encourage her.

Although the final deadline is in the evening, the earlier you submit, the higher your score will be. Once you complete the assessment, you can move freely nearby.

This is one of the few benefits.

"Yes, Mr. Bai Yuan."

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Mito Yumei nodded vigorously, then trotted back to the nearby shore where all her kitchen utensils were placed.

“Then comes the cooking…”

Looking at the few small crucian carps in the basin that she had caught with great effort, she found that they were too small and it caused her a lot of trouble to handle them.

Before going to find Bai Yuan, she had already evenly coated the cleaned fish with salt, pepper, ginger slices and minced garlic, and marinated it!

The rest is...

Pick out the wild chrysanthemum and yellow mushroom from the food basket, cut them into small pieces suitable for cooking with a knife, and then take out the wax gourd hidden in the pot.

This was found in a forest not far away. I don’t know how many years it has grown. The vine is thick and strong, and it is wrapped around a tree.

By the time she arrived, there were not many wax melons left, only a few hard-to-pick fruits on the vines at the top of the tree.

But this did not pose a problem for her. With her agility, she performed a monkey climbing a tree trick for everyone and collected all the remaining ones.

“It’s really a hard-earned treasure.”

Looking at the skin bursting open to reveal the white jade-like fruit inside, Mito Yumei couldn't help but sigh, then raised the kitchen knife and neatly cut it into small pieces, setting them aside for later use.

Put the marinated fish into the pot, add stream water, just enough to cover the fish, bring to a boil over high heat and skim off the foam.

Add the processed wild chrysanthemum and pleurotus eryngii, salt, chili, soy sauce and cooking wine to simply adjust the base flavor, then simmer over low heat to keep the soup at a slight boil.

"Without a stove, the flames are really hard to control. It would be nice to have a grill."

He looked at Erina Nakiri's barbecue grill with envy and wanted to borrow it, but was too embarrassed to ask.

Mito Yumei finally chose to use the hanging pot method of Feishazi to cook, turning the fish body from time to time to ensure that it is heated evenly.

After the fish has been boiling in the pot for a while, add the chopped August fruit into the pot to increase the sweetness of the soup base and make the taste richer.

Of course, what Mito Yumei made was not the fish soup that Bai Yuan suggested, although that was indeed the best solution, but she wanted to make something of her own.

So, after much deliberation, she decided to make a dish called fish stew, and she happened to have brought most of the seasonings needed to make this dish.

As for the missing onions and garlic, she exchanged them with others for a few wax gourds she picked. After all, she only needed one.

After finishing all this, all that was left was to wait. Mito Yumei wandered around the food she had cooked, looking at other students with a vigilant look.

At this moment, everyone present is in competition, and there might be people who can't cook and come to destroy other people's food.

Therefore, you can’t relax for a moment until the cooking is done!

"Teacher Bai Yuan, this is the fruit wood medicinal fish porridge I made. Please enjoy it."

At the same time, Xinhu Feishazi's fruit and medicinal fish porridge was also ready. At this moment, she hung the towel on the handle and brought the casserole to Bai Yuan.

"Fruit and wood medicinal fish porridge, quite interesting."

Looking at Shinto Hisako who used the suitcase as a table and bent down to serve him porridge, Bai Yuan showed an interested expression on his face.

After his long-term training, Xinhu Feishazi's understanding of medicinal diet has been greatly improved, and the ruler has contributed greatly to this.

To the extent that, she felt extremely ashamed whenever she saw Bai Yuan, and somewhere on her body was slightly hot. It was clearly a punishment, but it made her excited!

This feeling was very strange and made her feel like a pervert, so Feishazi didn't tell anyone about this and just bore it silently.

"Please, Mr. Bai Yuan."

"Please sit down. There's no need to be so nervous. I'll conduct the review normally."

Looking at Xin Hu Fei Shazi, who was holding the bowl in both hands, with an exceptionally rosy face and a wandering gaze, not daring to look at him, Bai Yuan patted the chair and asked her to sit down.

"Ah."

After straightening her clothes, Xinhu Hisako let out a long breath, then sat next to Bai Yuan.

However, her eyes were always focused on the bowl full of porridge in his hand. She pinched the corner of his clothes with her fingers and crumpled them up, looking extremely nervous.

Bai Yuan was still half lying down, but he raised his body slightly. Then he scooped a spoonful of porridge in front of him and put it into his mouth to taste it.

The milky white porridge soup exudes a faint rice aroma and the fresh scent of medicinal herbs.

The long-term slow-cooking of fish bones and a variety of medicinal materials makes the soup infused with the mildness of Amomum villosum, the sweetness of Chinese yam, the warmth of dried ginger and the spleen-invigorating effect of dried tangerine peel.

These flavors permeate each other and have distinct layers, forming the core base of fish porridge.

"Yes, it seems that my efforts during this period have not been in vain, and the punishment has not been in vain.

Apart from anything else, you have already mastered the basic combination of medicinal food and can skillfully apply it in cooking, which is worthy of praise. "

Feeling the taste spreading in his mouth, Bai Yuan praised it generously. As he spoke, he scooped up the fish fillets in the porridge, which is the essence of fish fillet porridge.

The sesame oil marinating not only adds an attractive aroma to the fish fillets, but also cleverly locks in the moisture of the fish meat, making each piece of fish fillet appear exceptionally tender and juicy, and full of the flavor of the porridge.

The taste and texture are the result of precise control of the heat. Only by putting the fish fillets in at the right time can the fish be tender and smooth yet somewhat tough.

If you put the fish in too early, it will become rotten; if you put it in too late, it will not be cooked. Only the right amount of time can make the fish fillets taste the best!

Chapter 106: Feishazi, you are always lazy, this won’t do!

“If you can, you can actually add one Schisandra chinensis when cooking porridge.

Schisandra chinensis is sour, sweet and warm in nature, belonging to the lung, heart and kidney meridians. Its taste is mainly sour and sweet. Adding it to porridge can play a good role in coordinating the overall taste. "

After finishing the porridge in his hand and feeling the ups and downs of the taste, Bai Yuan offered some pertinent advice.

You don't need to add too much, just one grain will be enough, the taste of the porridge will become more harmonious.

"But the herbs I brought this time don't have Schisandra chinensis. I can't use it even if I want to. This is limited by objective conditions."

Xinhu Feishazi argued that she also knew that Schisandra chinensis could be used to balance the taste of porridge, and she also thought of it when cooking. The key is that a good cook cannot cook without rice!

"Have you forgotten where this place is? Feishazi, I've asked you to learn the geographical distribution of medicinal herbs a long time ago, but you're always slacking off. This won't do!"

However, when Bai Yuan heard what Xinhu Hisako said, he did not show an expression of agreement. Instead, he frowned and asked back.

“This is the river...”

As if she had thought of something, Niito Hisako's voice suddenly became quieter until it could no longer be heard...

"Schisandra chinensis is a medicinal herb that usually grows in bushes on river banks and forest edges."

Bai Yuan put down the bowl in his hand and sat up from the chair. He sniffed, looking for the slight change in the scent in the air, and finally came to a bush.

"If you can learn all the homework I assign to you thoroughly, instead of just thinking that you have learned it well enough, then you can make better food this time?"

Bai Yuan's voice was stern and revealed a bit of helplessness.

In fact, he could probably understand Xinhu Hisako's idea. When making dishes, it is enough to understand the characteristics of medicinal materials. Who cares where they grow?

This is indeed the case, and chefs generally do not need to find medicinal herbs on their own.

Today is the modern era, not the ancient times. With convenient transportation and fast shipping, some of the things that were taught in the past should also be adjusted.

Maybe he's a little old-fashioned...

"I'm sorry, Mr. Bai Yuan, I failed to live up to your expectations."

Xinhu Hisako clenched his fists slightly, a look of shame appeared on his face, then he turned his head and looked around. After finding that no one was paying attention to them, he turned around.

"what are you doing?"

Looking at Xinhu Hisako who suddenly turned her back to him, Bai Yuan frowned slightly, somewhat unsure of what she was doing.

"Isn't it a punishment?

Hurry up, Mr. Bai Yuan, I don’t know when someone will come over, I feel so embarrassed. "

Xinhu Feishazi twisted her body and spoke with a hint of shame. It was her first time doing this in public and her legs felt a little weak.

"Why do you make me sound like a pervert when you say that?"

Looking at the beautiful girl with rosy cheeks and shy look who turned her head in front of him, Bai Yuan's heart was also touched.

Especially this guy lowered his body slightly and straightened his back to show an S-shaped curve. No matter who saw it, probably no one would refuse to have sex with the most fleshy part of her body.

However, in the outside world, he would not hit anyone unless he was extremely angry.

"No need. When you go back home tonight, copy down the most common medicinal herbs and their distribution locations in the Pharmacopoeia ten times as punishment."

Bai Yuan said indifferently, still thinking that the early education method should be followed. Knowing the regional range of medicinal materials growth will be beneficial to chefs who focus on medicinal cuisine.

After all, his expectation for Niito Hisako was not to have an ordinary top-class chef, but a high-star top-class chef.

Instead of waiting until the future when you need to cram these contents, it is better to lay a solid foundation in advance while you have time now. As the saying goes, a tall building starts from the ground.

"Okay, let's go study in the car. You should be able to find relevant information on your phone."

After saying this, Bai Yuan left, leaving Xinhu Feisha standing there with a flushed face. Feeling the river breeze blowing towards her, the girl suddenly felt a little messy.

What! She was already prepared, but he didn't fight? What was this, a lay-off?!

Looking at Bai Yuan's departing back, Xinhu Feishazi stomped her feet. Her little face looked particularly red, and she didn't know whether she was angry or embarrassed.

"Without punishment, there is no way to make people remember things. It is precisely because I want to improve so much that I want to be punished by Mr. Bai Yuan."

Watching Bai Yuan gradually going away, Xinhu Hisako seemed to realize something. Her blush spread to her ears, and then she muttered in a low voice in an attempt to hide her mistake.

Bai Yuan naturally didn't know the girlish thoughts of Xinhu Hisako, otherwise he would definitely satisfy her thoughts and hit her hard a few times.

At this moment, Bai Yuan walked towards his seat while taking out his mobile phone, thinking about the lesson and starting to enter his grades.

Nito Hisako, 68 points.

If the cooking of Alice Nakiri is used as the standard, then the level of Hisako Nijima is probably just passing, reaching the peak level of second-level cooking.

If Schisandra chinensis is added, the score will probably reach 75 points.

Sometimes just adding one ingredient can change the taste dramatically. This is the charm of cooking.

"So, what's your cooking?"

Looking at Erina Nakiri who was standing at his position waiting for him, Bai Yuan looked into her eyes and asked.

"I made a French clam soup, which combines all the deliciousness of the river into one bowl. Please enjoy it, Mr. Bai Yuan."

As she spoke, Erina Nakiri handed the delicious soup in her hand to Bai Yuan, with a confident expression on her face.

"Soup? It's a standard French cooking method, but I didn't expect you to carry so many ingredients with you. No wonder you brought so many bags this morning."

Thinking about the large and small bags that they carried with them when they met Erina Nakiri and Hisako Arato before they set off, Bai Yuan's face showed a look of realization.

Although it is a trick to some extent, the advance preparation can also reflect the quality of the chef in some ways.

"I never fight a battle that I'm not sure of. Rather than looking for ingredients everywhere, I would rather focus all my time on cooking."

Hearing Bai Yuan's words, Erina Nakiri said with a little pride.

Knowing that the examiner would be Shirabuchi, Erina Nakiri and Hisako Arato studied the plan several times before setting off.
