Chapter 438: Beyond
Chen Jianfeng had a calm smile on his face and looked calm. He brought his own dishes to everyone.
"This dish is called 'state banquet tofu', please try it." Chen Jianfeng said with a smile, then placed the tray in his hand in front of everyone. Except for Bai Renzong, everyone at the scene was shocked.
The tray is placed with a "real bream continental map", and various materials are arranged in the shape of China map. However, it is not used to place snapper, but various materials.
In addition to the outer circle, some vegetables and fruits are used to decorate, there are mainly five ingredients inside, namely fish, lamb chops, chicken legs, meatballs and pork belly.
However, there is no tofu.
"Our country is a brilliant place. This vast land has rich ingredients and a cuisine culture that lasts for 5,000 years. I hope that through this dish, you can feel the charm of this land." Chen Jianfeng explained in a humble and arrogant manner.
"Is this really tofu dish? Where is tofu?" said the other three judges in shock.
The three of them were searching for the theme of this dish, but at this moment, Bai Renzong couldn't help but exclaim: "My God... why didn't I think of this? Make these 'meat dishes' with tofu! But..."
Bai Renzong was actually not sure whether these dishes were considered tofu, because these ingredients may be soy products, but not every soy product is considered tofu, so he planned to explain this dish to everyone after trying it.
"Although I don't understand very well, I'll try it first." Emma Berry smiled enthusiastically.
"Yes, maybe tofu is in these ingredients?" Carl Brando said skeptical.
The judges took some of each ingredient from the plate in doubt and prepared to start tasting.
Bai Renzong first tasted the fish meat, then covered his mouth: "Is this made of tofu? It tastes like fish meat! And the taste is very similar to fish meat, although I can still taste the aroma of soybeans from it..."
"I adjusted the moisture in the tofu," Chen Jianfeng explained. "In fact, this is the tofu that is not perfectly solidified by giving too much water, so its taste will be relatively thin. After a certain dish, it can make its taste similar to fish. Then put it in the pot with the fish and make soup so that the taste of the fish is soaked into the tofu, and it is it."
"Oh, it's so clever..." Bai Renzong said suddenly and tasted the meatballs again.
The meatballs taste very elastic, and they feel like beef balls, and the taste is very similar to beef balls. However, they are still a little worse than the real beef balls. It is indeed possible to tell that this is a kind of chewy tofu, similar to frozen tofu.
Bai Renzong could only shake his head and marvel at the craftsmanship shown in this tofu dish, but could not say any comments.
Then he tasted the lamb chops. The tofu tasted very firm, but he could also taste it made of some kind of tofu, which was very chewy, but the magical thing was that there was even a meaty texture inside.
"How do you do the fleshy fibers here?" Bai Renzong looked at Chen Jianfeng in disbelief and asked.
"It is not to grind so fine when grinding soybeans, and then add a little high-gluten flour to it." Chen Jianfeng said with a smile, "You must know high-gluten flour, right? It's the gluten ingredients."
"Oh! So that's why this taste is formed..." Bai Renzong suddenly realized, "It's really incredible... What a brilliant craftsmanship. I started to think about it from the step of making tofu, which is admirable."
After knowing how to make lamb chops, basically all lean meat was used in the same way. Bai Renzong was curious about how the fat meat and pork skin in the pork belly were made.
"Rebirth: The Great Era of Fighting the Waves"
Although I had eaten pork belly made from vegetarian dishes from some vegetarian restaurants while visiting the restaurant, those pork belly were made of mushrooms and winter melon.
However, the pork belly in front of me is pure tofu. How to make fat meat and pork skin with tofu?
Bai Renzong picked up a portion of pork belly and tasted it. In fact, the taste was a bit different from the real pork belly, but it was really impossible to tell if you didn’t taste it carefully. The lean meat part was the same technique as other meats. Add a little high-gluten flour to the tofu, and the fat meat was different. This part of the fat meat was made of similar to the semi-finished tofu.
This layer of tofu is still in a semi-liquid and semi-solidified state, which is a bit like the taste of almond tofu, so it really forms a feeling of melting oil when sandwiched between the pig skin and lean meat.
As for the final pig skin, like Jamie Tira's tofu, it is fried old tofu, crispy and delicious.
These three kinds of tofu can actually form this kind of pork belly that can be fake and real. Although you can still eat it carefully, you will only think it is pork belly when you eat it at first. Moreover, Bai Renzong is a Chinese after all, and he often eats tofu so he can tell it. However, for those foreigners who rarely eat tofu, it is almost difficult for them to tell that it is tofu.
"It's incredible..." Bai Renzong covered his mouth and held it on the table, looking at the dish in front of him, "It's amazing... I don't know what to say anymore. This tofu dish is simply a work of art..."
"Wait, you mean..." Emma Berry looked at the various meats on the plate in surprise, "Are these all tofu?!"
"That's right." Bai Renzong nodded, "use various methods to process processed tofu."
"Unbelievable!" Carl Brando held his face like a shy girl, "This, these are tofu! But they taste exactly the same as real meat! The taste is very similar and the taste is almost the same... These are actually made of tofu? Tofu is too amazing, right?! I fell in love with this thing!"
"Tofu has its unique characteristic, which is that it can be integrated with any ingredients and absorb the essence of other foods." Bai Renzong patiently explained to the judge, "so you can taste the flavors of mutton, beef, and pork from the tofu. In addition, Master Chen starts to work hard to change its taste from the step of grinding tofu, so that he can make such a dish..."
"So that's it..." Emma Berry pondered with her cheeks in one hand, "What a superb cooking skill this is. This can no longer be said to be a cooking, but a work of art that can be felt with her tongue."
"Actually, people who often eat tofu can still eat the difference, but the difference is very small. We often eat tofu, and it is difficult to find the difference, let alone people who don't eat tofu often." Yuto Yamamoto said seriously, "Without telling the guests, you may not realize that these are all made of tofu..."
Speaking of this, Yuto Yamamoto touched the back of his head a little clumsyly and smiled: "Ah... it's so incredible. Uncle was so surprised that he forgot about drinking."
"So," Bai Renzong turned to Carl Brando and laughed, "Do you still think Wensi Tofu can't surpass it?"
"ouch." Carl Brando smiled and touched his face, "It feels like he was slapped in the face... but I really have to admit that this dish is really impressive, and I decided to write a separate Twitter for it..."
As he said that, Carl Brando took out his cell phone and pointed it at the dish and took a photo: "Oh, this dish will definitely ignite the whole world. Who would have thought that this dish that looks like it is all meat is made of tofu? Everyone will love it to death!"
"Excellent..." Jiro Nakamura, who was preparing for the final process next to him, couldn't help but exclaim.
The barrage has exploded now, leaving only admiration words all over the screen: "6666!" "Is this too good?" "A few idiots on the side come and learn?" "This is the chef and cuisine that makes us proud!" "You foreigners have seen the excellence of Chinese cuisine now?"
As soon as this dish was released, the remaining chefs were stressed.
So Jiro Nakamura arranged the last side dish, then brought the plate to everyone: "I've been waiting for a long time, please use it."
Eight round tofu on the plate were soaked in amber soup. Each tofu was stacked with a crystal clear shrimp and a little wooden fish flower. The wooden fish flower was still fluttering gently with the breath of everyone, and it was so shattering that it was so shattering.
In terms of visual effect, this dish is more like some kind of pudding than tofu.
"Then you're welcome." Bai Renzong said, scooping up a portion of tofu and eating it.
"It tastes very clear and soft. The amber soup is made of Xianggu, Weilin, sake, woodfish soup, Japanese soy sauce and a variety of vegetables and then collected water. The tofu almost melts in the mouth, but the shrimps are still crispy, tender and delicious." Bai Renzong said as he tasted the dish, "The wooden fish flowers on it provide a unique fragrance...and what is this taste?"
After careful reminiscing, Bai Renzong asked curiously: "Did you add pickled burdock to the tofu?"
"No, it's made of marinated with salt and plums." Jiro Nakamura nodded and replied, not looking like he didn't have any desire to survive.
It is obvious that Chen Jianfeng's previous dishes had completely convinced him. He knew very well that his dishes could not surpass the "state banquet", and the facts were indeed the case.
Although this tofu dish is also excellent, it has rich layers in both taste and taste, and is a very excellent tofu dish.
But whether it is the tofu itself, the cooking method or the pattern of the whole dish, it is completely defeated by Chen Jianfeng's "state banquet tofu".
Chen Jianfeng's tofu dish, each type of tofu was made by him by himself, and even adjusted its taste separately.
