Gourmets in the Heavens

Chapter 18 Shocking Taste

"This is... the strength of the ten heroes of Yuanyue?"

Xingping Chuangzhen looked at the clear, jasper-like soup in front of him, and just smelling the fragrant taste made his tongue grow.

You must know that he heard that even if the person in front of him has reserved a seat of the top ten, he has not really received the education of Yuanyue High School.

Like him, she just graduated from junior high school!

"Light as water, with a restrained aroma."

Yukihira Seiichiro saw his son's shock in his eyes, but he didn't say much, but commented on the dishes in front of him.

Let Nakiri Erina look happy.

"The color and shape of your soup is no less than that of many old-fashioned high-end restaurants in Kyoto!"

You must know that Kyoto Imperial is the capital of East Yingzhou and one of the largest cities in the Far East. It connects the two culinary camps of the East and the West. The high-end restaurants that can stand here are at least hosted by chefs with eight or nine stars.

Nakiri Erina, who is still a student, can actually make soups that are comparable to those of these restaurants. It is no wonder that the entire East Sakura Island culinary world regards her as a treasure.

I think she will be the figure who will lead the entire Tou Sakura cooking world after the Demon King.

Not to mention her 'God Tongue', which is comparable to that of a chef, she can detect all the flaws even in high-end cooking.

She has become the cooking supervisor of many famous restaurants in Kyoto, and her words can determine the life and death of a restaurant.

"Let this old man taste it, Erina, have you made any progress recently!"

Nakiri Senzaemon picked up the spoon and scooped up the soup from the plate, as if a spoonful of clear spring was pouring out. The closer he got to his mouth, the more intoxicated the breath of spring was.

"Well!"

Just after putting it in, a pure taste burst out, and countless delicate flavors exploded, turning into a whirlwind, involving Nakiri Senzaemon.

It was like entering a dance in the spring garden.

Nakiri Senzaemon seems to be dancing to his heart's content in the spring, so much so that the clothes on his body are even slightly damaged.

"This is... the collar of the commander-in-chief burst!!"

Looking at Nakiri Senzaemon taking a sip of soup at the door, Erina's secret technique Hiishako Shinto couldn't help but exclaimed.

After all, being able to make the Demon King of Eater's clothes burst unconsciously means that it already represents the dish, and it has completely reached the realm of slaying dishes.

In fact, Nakiri Erina has not yet fully grasped the true meaning of this realm, and being able to use it this time proves that she has indeed made progress!

"It made the old man feel a hint of spring, and saw a spring dance!"

"Erina, you've improved again!"

"I didn't even feel a trace of impurities in the soup, it's a perfect taste!"

Nakiri Senzaemon looked at his granddaughter in surprise, and then turned to look at Yukihira Seiichiro.

However, he saw that he had put the spoon down, and there was a trace of being shocked by the soup on his face, and Xingping Chuangzhen was even more shocked to see fine sweat.

"Why does this kind of soup have no peculiar smell at all? It is full of the taste of various spring vegetables, wrapped in a mellow soup flavor, and finally blooms on the tip of the tongue."

"That faint fragrance makes people completely unable to come out, just want to indulge in it!"

Then he looked at his father.

"Dad, she didn't break the ingredients when she stirred like that. Why is the soup so clear?"

Seiichiro patted the excited Soma, but instead of answering his doubts, he focused his gaze on Erina's face.

"Do you use tofu in your Raft?"

Raft is the key to making the French clear soup clear. The tradition is to stir together various vegetables, minced meat, egg white, and tomato, and then put them into the vegetable soup. After boiling, turn to the lowest heat and simmer slowly. A layer of material forms on the surface.

This layer of material will absorb all kinds of impurities and fats that roll up.

Yaozhou's topping soup is made in a very similar way, but the topping soup is made of chicken puree to absorb impurities.

But Erina's 'spring waltz' is different. She also ingeniously added tofu to absorb impurities. Tofu is an extremely oil-absorbing ingredient.

Especially in soup, once it is added, the fat and oil will be absorbed quickly, but the taste of tofu itself will be very obvious in the light soup.

But Erina's soup, because the taste of vegetables turned tofu into a kind of embellished fragrance, without a hint of abruptness, it is even more difficult to distinguish.

Erina was also very generous when she heard Yukihira Seiichiro's question. Her handling method was very subtle. Even if she knew about adding tofu, it would not be possible to crack it.

"Correct!"

Just as Erina nodded, Seiichiro sighed and sat down.

"Hey..."

A strange light flashed in Nakiri Senzaemon's eyes.

"What's wrong, Seiichiro, what's wrong?"

Shaking his head, Seiichiro told the truth.

"Erina's soup has almost no shortage of flavor, and the heart of the spring breeze is blowing, and he is even on the way to find the prototype of his own kitchen. Even among the ten heroes of our era, he can have a place."

"But..."
