Have you ever seen glowing food? That's why you draw a food-themed anime.

Since the teacher is here, he can also judge whether this method is correct.

"Hmm? You took kiwis?" The blonde teacher in the third cooking room was sitting upright, but when she saw that Xu Zhou had taken different ingredients than before, a hint of appreciation suddenly appeared in her eyes.

The temporary trainees finally learned to be flexible this time.

It seems that another person in their college will be taking the transfer student assessment!

after an hour.

Xu Zhou brought out the stewed beef and placed it in front of the blond-haired teacher.

His face was expressionless; he simply made a cut on the beef with his knife and fork.

The beef was so juicy and fragrant that it almost overflowed. Although it was only stewed for an hour, the meat was visibly tender.

"Yes, I found a way to shorten the time myself."

"very nice."

As she cut a piece and put it in her mouth, the blonde teacher's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction: "The taste is acceptable too."

“You remind me of someone in our college, except that kid used honey back then.”

His gaze was full of appreciation: "A qualified chef must learn to utilize all the ingredients at his disposal, not just look at the recipe."

"Last time, the taste of your dish was acceptable, but you didn't have any originality. This time, however, it's different."

"Temporary trainee, you're very good, you've passed!"

A system notification popped up in Xu Zhou's ear very quickly.

I have now mastered the art of Beef Burgundy with red wine to an exceptionally high level, and I have also learned how to make Beef Burgundy with red wine (my own improved version)!

[Applications for transfer students to Totsuki Academy are now open]

[Burger Beef in Red Wine (Soma Yukihira's Improved Version) - You can learn how to make it...]

When Xu Zhou saw that the application was available, he didn't plan to apply at that time. He intended to continue learning the improved recipe by Yukihira Soma.

After I finish learning, I might try to write another food-themed manga.

Then you'll have even more recipes to learn!

Delicious.

...

And the other side.

Jiang Mingzhu felt extremely complicated as she looked at the Burgundy beef stew she made, following the recipe in the comic book and adding her own touches.

"It actually worked in half an hour."

She took a sip and closed her eyes.

The beef was indeed incredibly tender; this author is a true realist!

"no!"

"I have to go eat at that restaurant tomorrow!"

"What if he just guessed right?"

Chapter 27 Learn the Improved Version

Xu Zhou was indeed learning how to make a modified version of beef stew in Burgundy red wine in his own kitchen.

The interior remains unchanged, just as it was when I trained in the cooking room.

It's about the same size as the third cooking room.

However, it occupied the entire area by itself, and was fully equipped with knives and kitchen utensils.

The ingredients were placed in the back, and the remaining three areas were filled with different kitchen utensils.

It's practically a chef's dream training room!

suddenly.

The door was pushed open, and a familiar voice rang out from outside.

"Xu Zhou, I heard that you also got an A or higher in your assessment! And you even used a different method than me?"

"Yes, I used kiwis."

Xu Zhou looked in the direction of the sound and sure enough, he saw the red-haired boy standing at the door.

He had white bandages tied around his hands, and he still looked familiar, with his red hair flamboyant and grinning at me.

When he heard that he was using kiwi, he looked curious: "Kiwi? I've never tasted what kiwi-marinated beef tastes like."

"Could you make me a portion to try? I've never had beef marinated in kiwi before." The red-haired boy said this with a hint of embarrassment in his eyes.

"I'm so curious, but if you find it troublesome..."

"sure."

Xu Zhou thought about how he hadn't been charged for the previous few dishes, so he didn't dwell on this small matter too much.

"Then you'll have to wait an hour."

"Great!"

The red-haired boy watched excitedly from the sidelines: "When you're free, let's have a food war! Xu Zhou is a formidable opponent!"

Xu Zhou: "..."

Who wants to have a food battle with you?

Busy!

...

Xu Zhou started getting the ingredients.

The beef in the system training room was free, and he picked out a large amount of ingredients without any hesitation to start cooking.

The biggest difference between 100% control and 60% control lies in autonomy.

Once you fully understand this recipe, you no longer need to rely on the original recipe; instead, you can add your own interpretation.

Chop onions, mushrooms, and potatoes, and marinate the beef with kiwi spices and red wine.

Because it's made from imaginary ingredients, the meat is of excellent quality. At a glance, the marbling is clear, and it not only has no fishy smell but also gleams under the light.

Even though it was only marinated for twenty minutes, all the flavors of red wine, spices, and the sweet taste of kiwi permeated the glistening meat.

It has completely absorbed the red wine and is infused with the flavor of spices.

I squeezed it casually, and you could almost squeeze red wine out of the beef.

"It's marinated now, let's start stewing."

Xu Zhou's movements were as smooth as flowing water.

Without even realizing it, his knife skills had already surpassed 60% of Yukihira Soma's initial level.

With each practice session, progress is made. The blade of the knife flashes coldly under the light, accompanied by a series of thumping sounds, elegant and composed.

His knife skills have already begun to transform; even just looking at him, you can feel a completely different aura emanating from him.

"Xu Zhou! You've improved a lot!" The red-haired boy next to him praised him repeatedly, then clasped his hands in a fist salute, his enthusiasm rising.

"My friend, your knife skills are amazing now!"

"Let's have a food battle! I can't wait!"

"The food will be ready soon."

When stewing beef, Xu Zhou could already tell the quality of the stew from the aroma emanating from it.

Upon smelling the rich aroma of beef emanating from the pot, he closed his eyes, sniffed it, and turned off the heat without hesitation.

"All right."

"Try it."

In less than an hour, Xu Zhou placed a plate of improved beef in front of the special red-haired boy.

...

After Xu Zhou brought the dish to the table, the person in front of him had already forgotten about the food battle he had been thinking about, and his whole mind was focused on the dish in front of him.

The beef exudes a deadly aroma, and when placed on the plate, every piece of meat is a deep red, soaked in red wine.

The color is perfect, and the aroma of wine and the sweet fragrance of vegetables, along with the aroma of spices, is intoxicating.

The red-haired boy picked up his knife and fork, his eyes filled with anticipation.

"Thank you for the treat! I won't stand on ceremony then!"

"Well, try it."

"it is good."

He carefully used his knife and fork to cut the beef, and the juices overflowed as he cut.

The beef was incredibly tender, and the sweet flavor of the kiwi had permeated the meat's texture during the marinating process.

After stewing, the sweetness blends with the rich aroma of Burgundy red wine, bringing out the complex flavors of wild cherry, earth, wet leaves and mushrooms in Pinot Noir to their fullest potential.

The delicate Pinot Noir grape has a very complex flavor, which, when fully released into the stewed beef broth, creates a rich and full-bodied taste that is truly amazing.

The meat is stewed until it's fully flavorful, and every bite is bursting with aroma.

"good to eat!"

"Your dish is delicious!"

He savored the perfectly cooked meat, finding each bite tender and bursting with the rich juices of Burgundy red wine fully released into the beef broth.

The juice that seeps out is so rich that just one sip makes your entire soul tremble.

Even the red-haired boy, who was used to enjoying delicious food, couldn't help but be amazed by this dish. With his eyes closed, he felt every cell in his body screaming.

Blood and soul seem to be bewitched; the sweet aroma of vegetables and the rich fragrance of red wine are thoroughly infused into the broth.

However, the broth was completely absorbed into the beef.

That was the perfect taste.

After finishing the meal, it took him a long time to calm down before he couldn't help but sigh.

“Xu Zhou, my friend! Actually, I don’t think my version is necessarily better than yours.”

"You've mastered this dish to perfection; there's nothing more I can teach you."

"However, if you want to learn my method, I can teach you."

The entire plate of food was eaten clean.

After he finished eating, the red-haired boy slowly and painstakingly taught him his own modified version of the Burgundy beef stew recipe.

Because the two versions of the recipe were not significantly different, Xu Zhou learned it after only reading it once.

...

After thoroughly mastering the modified version of beef stew in Burgundy red wine, Xu Zhou left the system training room.

Back in my bedroom, less than a minute had passed.

Xu Zhou glanced at the prices of ingredients in the system and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

"Isn't this price a bit too high?!"

"With such a high price, who can afford it?"

The ingredients underneath are very expensive.

The prices of beef and vegetables are about the same as before, while the most expensive item is Burgundy red wine.

Just 250ml costs 8,900.

Made of gold?

Xu Zhou couldn't help but glance at the introduction of this time's fantasy ingredients.
