Chapter 418: Evolution
"Oh..." Bai Renzong looked at Adam in surprise, then looked at Zhang Guanghan again.
Zhang Guanghan himself smiled, and didn't seem to care about the provocation of this young man. He just continued to work hard. It was still some time before he served his own dishes, so he had to control his own speed to ensure that his dishes could be served at the most appropriate time.
However, Adam's crazy has reason.
Now Bai Renzong finally understood what Adam had realized.
For example, the set meal made by Adam today is actually a very heavy dish from the side dishes. It combines a variety of seafood together to make a sushi roll. Although each ingredients are processed separately to remove the fishy smell and retain the deliciousness, it is still a very heavy dish.
This is especially true for the main course pork ribs. The three combinations of pork ribs, pork skin and lard sauces have strengthened the aroma of the pork itself to the extreme.
If these two dishes are in the style of Han Jiayi and Paul Patterke, the dishes made are impossible to finish, because they are too heavy and you will feel tired of eating a few bites.
Only by using Adam's form can you use such a strong taste to show the deliciousness of seafood and pork, because the portion is small, and the whole dish is finished before you feel tired of it.
This "part" is well grasped, just right, and people can enjoy the delicious food, but if you have a little more, you will feel tired of it.
I can only say that some restaurants exist to make people simply enjoy the delicious food.
"So smart..." Bai Renzong smiled with interest, "but there is also a disadvantage, which is 'satisfaction'. Although this dish is delicious, it cannot provide the happy satisfaction in Chef Paul's set meal."
However, Adam's set meal is still amazing. The combination of pork ribs, pork skin and lard sauce forms an extremely strong meat aroma. Even after eating, the meat aroma in his mouth will not dissipate for a long time.
"Then, the next one is Chef Yang Hua." Bai Renzong said, turning to Yang Hua.
"Oh, it's my turn finally..." Yang Hua breathed a sigh of relief, "Come on, Xiaobai, it's time to have something delicious."
"I'm waiting." Bai Renzong closed his hands and smiled, his thumb wrapping around.
"Appetizer." Yang Hua said, putting the tray in his hand in front of Bai Renzong.
The plate in front of me was filled with a flower carved from lotus root, with green sauce on it, which looked very fresh and lovely. After eating Adam's pork ribs, just looking at the color makes people feel comfortable.
Bai Renzong picked up the pair of lotus roots and ate it: "The taste of lotus roots has been cooked until they are very soft and glutinous. The green sauce on it is made of celery and lime, with a hint of sweetness and sourness, and the most important thing is... it is very greasy."
"I know that guy will definitely bring you something oily and greasy in the main course, so I specially prepared this dish for you." Yang Hua smiled proudly, "Celery and lime can effectively break down greasy and relieve your stomach pressure."
"Oh, this is really considerate." Bai Renzong smiled, "and the taste is indeed very fresh, completely free from the greasiness of the previous dish. Now I am ready to taste the next dish."
Next, Yang Hua brought out his own soup, a bowl of asparagus soup.
Bai Renzong tasted it: "The flavor of asparagus, celery, onion and clear chicken soup, bay leaves and green garlic is very charming. The bacon and butter are given inside. To be honest, I was a little surprised. I originally thought that Chef Yang Hua would control the greasy feeling of this dish to lay the groundwork for the side dishes and main dishes that will appear later."
"Of course, the actual effect is very good, the taste is silky and sticky. The clear chicken soup is fragrant against the background of bacon, bay leaves and green garlic. But as Mr. Bai said, I am a little worried about the subsequent dishes." Sato Ryoto frowned.
"Let's wait and see." Rossini Salerno smiled.
Immediately, Yang Hua placed the side dishes in front of the four of them.
The dish was served on the plate, which was made of squid. A few slices of potatoes surrounded a small pile of squid in the middle, and the sides were decorated with cherry tomatoes, lemon leaves and bitter celery. The squid meat was covered with a layer of milky white sauce.
"Emm... this is really rare." Bai Renzong frowned and pondered, "This is the first time I have seen squid as the main character. The fishy smell of squid is quite heavy, so many foreigners don't like it. In addition, mixing the fishy smell of squid often requires heavy seasoning, so the taste of the main dish is easily ruined."
"It's Adriatic squid, a seafood dish in Dalmatia," Rosini Salerno explained. "This guy is not easy to control. It seems that Chef Yang Hua's skills are, right?"
Bai Renzong gave a piece of squid and tasted it. In terms of seasoning, he gave garlic, parsley, and pepper. During the stewing process, white wine and olive oil were given, but the most important thing was the sauce on it, which was made of some kind of fish soup.
The taste of the squid itself is very light under the blend of white wine, olive oil, garlic and parsley. It can be said that it can't taste any of the squid. It can only be judged by the taste. However, the sauce made with fish soup on the top gives this squid a rich umami flavor, just like...
"Sauce is the main body, and squid is just a foil." Bai Renzong pondered with his chin.
"What is this fish soup made of?" Alan Robbs asked curiously.
"Salmon, add garlic, fennel, thyme, bay and orange peel and make the sauce after concentrated." Bai Renzong explained, "I think I should mainly use the fish skin part, so it can create such a strong viscosity."
"That's right." Yang Hua smiled proudly, "It's worthy of being Xiaobai, nothing can escape your tongue. But I think you should also understand why I want to 'eat this extravagant'?"
"It can't be said to be 'extraordinary'." Bai Renzong smiled with interest. "I think this should be considered a brand new cooking concept. Use other ingredients to form the taste, and then use sauce to form the taste, thus breaking the fixed form of the cooking. It's like you can eat chicken-flavored broccoli and crab-flavored eggs. Using this cooking method can break through the limitations of taste and taste, thus producing various combinations and freely combining."
"Ah, I'm so touched..." Yang Hua sighed with his eyes closed, "You can always understand my cooking immediately... If you weren't in this world, I would definitely not cook anymore."
"So that's it..." Alan Robs pondered with his chin, "Indeed, it's amazing to think about it. He completely broke the original concept of cooking, and he could even change the taste and taste of the ingredients without the need for the high-tech equipment of molecular food. In this regard, even compared with Chef Adam, it is not inferior at all."
Adam frowned and said "tsk" unhappy, but said nothing.
"Don't rush to praise, there's the last main course." Yang Hua smiled and placed the last tray in front of everyone.
On the plate is a piece of salt-roasted pork cut into strips, with four pieces of salt, and four different colors of sauces are drizzled on it, namely white, yellow, red and brown. This technique of forming a sense of layering through different sauces is Yang Hua's common method, after all, he is the "magic of sauce".
But this time the difference is that not every piece of pork is drizzled with a sauce, but there are four sauces on each piece of pork.
"In this way, you don't need to eat four pieces to experience the whole taste." Yang Hua explained with a smile.
"It really made me feel relieved." Bai Renzong said with a smile, then picked up a portion of salt-roasted pork and tasted it first without the sauce. "It is pork shoulder, a part of the pig with less fat content. And it is just a simple salt-roasted one, without much seasoning, and marinating is just regular ingredients such as ginger, garlic, honey."
So, it is obvious that the secret of this salt-roasted pork is all on the four sauces on it.
But……
Bai Renzong was a little worried. If four kinds of sauces were used on such a small piece of pork chop, wouldn’t the taste of this pork become too messy?
The "layer" of French cuisine is not just about mixing all the flavors together, but about having skills and gradually showing these flavors in an orderly manner.
However, Bai Renzong was still confident in Yang Hua, so he opened his mouth and ate the whole piece of salt-roasted pork.
The word "Fresh!" instantly popped out of thousands of words, hitting Bai Renzong's brain.
"Although there are four kinds of sauces, the base of the sauce is pork bone soup!" Bai Renzong praised, "So, the taste will not be messy when you take this bite. The pork bone soup further strengthens the taste of pork. The four kinds of sauces above are actually completely different. Each sauce takes on its own task and pushes this piece of pork to the protagonist's position together!"
"The white sauce made from milk and paste is the task of providing a thick and thick texture; the yellow one is honey mustard, which is the task of providing sweetness and spicy flavor, while highlighting the rock salt aroma in salt-roasted pork; the red sauce is the garlic tomato sauce, which is the task of relieving greasy and raising appetite; the final brown sauce is the sauce formed after braised pork ribs, which is the task of enhancing the presence of the protagonist of 'pork'. The four sauces are so well matched."
Only then did Bai Renzong realize that in the second season of the show, everyone had silently started their own evolution. Although this evolution has not been completely completed.
"The future program will be very exciting..." Bai Renzong thought to himself, but he was a little regretful: Unfortunately, it will no longer be "Food Touch" in the future.
