……
The incident of the Rice Bowl Research Association in the original work.
The reason why transfer student Soma Yukihira was able to defeat Ikumi Mito is that he had followed Joichiro in running a diner for many years and had a deep understanding of rice bowls.
in contrast.
Mito, on the other hand, is too obsessed with "meat".
She selected top-grade A5 Wagyu beef, attempting to crush her competitors with "absolute deliciousness".
However, the balance between rice and side dishes in a rice bowl was not considered. For example, the dish had an "overpowering meat flavor, making the rice a mere accompaniment," resulting in a monotonous taste.
"It's time to say it or not."
"From the perspective of the overall cooking style."
"And in terms of understanding various meat dishes, Lin Xu is indeed stronger than Mito Ikumi."
Erina muttered.
Although she looked down on Lin Xu for using inexpensive ingredients to make these simple, down-to-earth dishes.
But she knows very well that cooking is not just about technique, but also about a dialogue between the chef and the diner.
As for.
Mito's cuisine.
Then it will forever remain at the level of "self-indulgence".
Yes, in Erina's view, it was made entirely according to her own preferences.
"I always felt that since my family runs a meat business, my understanding of meat far surpasses that of everyone else. As a result, I failed to understand the emotional connotations behind other ingredients and dishes."
"It seems that leaving the matter of abolishing the Rice Bowl Research Association to Mito Ikumi to handle this time might cause some trouble!"
As Erina finished speaking, she began to have a bad feeling.
before.
For dishes like rice bowls.
Her definition is ordinary, inexpensive, and delicious food that ordinary people can eat.
Therefore, sending Mito Ikumi, a capable subordinate, to prepare A5-grade steak would most likely result in a crushing defeat for the opponent.
But Lin Xu's braised pork and sticky rice bowl showed her the possibility of a rice bowl dish defeating an A5-level meat dish!
……
Subsequently.
Erina began to fix her gaze on Lin Xu's handsome face.
This is the face with a pair of very bright eyes, as dazzling as the starry sky.
Involuntarily.
She fell into a long daze again.
On one hand, it was the surprises Lin Xu gave her. He was just a lecturer at Totsuki Academy in her eyes, yet he kept surprising and shocking her.
On the other hand, it's unclear why he's so strong.
As she thought about it, Erina's mind kept flashing back to the sweet gesture of Lin Xu kissing her forehead, the dizzying feeling she had when he touched her tenderly, and the way he held her waist and pulled her into his arms...
Damn!
What's wrong with me again?
Even while eating, she couldn't help but think about Lin Xu, who was so close to her!
"what happened?"
"Is it because the braised pork rice doesn't suit your taste?"
Lin Xu blinked and whispered to Erina.
"No... not."
"I think it's so delicious."
"I wanted to use the tongue of God to carefully analyze some of the secrets, so I was distracted for a moment."
Erina snapped out of her daze, her face turning even redder. She quickly shoveled several spoonfuls of rice into her mouth and ate them in large mouthfuls to ease the turmoil in her heart.
"It's weird!"
"Isn't the Tongue of God all about using a keen sense of taste to distinguish between good and bad food?"
"Why is it that even Erina can't fully understand this simple dish made with only pork belly and glutinous rice?"
Alice, standing to the side, was puzzled.
She secretly observed Erina and noticed that her gaze frequently drifted towards Lin Xu.
The love and admiration in their eyes are always revealed without any concealment!
"interesting."
"It seems that this period of time will be spent in Totsuki."
"I'm sure I'll be able to see all sorts of scenarios where even ordinary dishes can conquer God's Tongue."
"Alice," whispered.
……
a meal.
It ended in a warm and cozy atmosphere.
Then, Alice and Hisako went back to their respective places.
In the huge villa, only Lin Xu and Erina Nakiri remained, making the atmosphere inevitably quite subtle.
"Erina, we've finished eating, and it's getting late. Why don't you go to sleep? What is it you want to keep me here for?"
Lin Xu sat leisurely on the sofa, elegantly sipping his fruit tea, then chuckled and said, "When a man and a woman are alone together in a room, things might just get a little messy!"
Upon hearing this, Erina rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.
Then she chose to sit down next to him, remained silent for a while, and then said, "I... I just want to hear it."
“Everything you experienced at the WGO Food Organization headquarters over the past two months, including…including my mother…”
Halfway through.
Erina felt a strange sensation welling up inside her.
For some reason, Lin Xu's attraction to her is now incredibly strong.
Whenever she saw him, got close to him, or even touched him, she couldn't help but feel her heart flutter and pound!
……
Lin Xu first shrugged.
Then she recounted in detail some important events from her time leaving Totsuki Academy and traveling through America, Northern Europe, and Paris, France, for example:
He is leveraging his connections in the financial, political, and culinary worlds in America to prepare to promote the $1 fried chicken business model!
Another example:
When he was in Northern Europe.
Visit that molecular gastronomy restaurant ranked third in the world.
Then there, they ran into Alice Nakiri and Leonora Nakiri, a mother and daughter.
Another example:
He returned to the WGO food organization.
He won over Annie and Nakiri Managi with his cooking, thus successfully being promoted to First-Class Executive Officer!
He even talked about other things, such as Nakiri Managi's own anorexia, which gradually evolved into food addiction because of his cooking.
Erina listened attentively.
After all, if Lin Xu hadn't told her, she would never have known these things.
However, she was indeed very surprised that Lin Xu had experienced so much in just two months. She really didn't know what kind of freak he was.
……
"Two months."
"You can then quickly rise from a second-class executive officer to a first-class executive officer."
"At this rate, it seems you'll be in charge of the entire WGO in the future. If I see you then, I'll probably have no choice but to bow respectfully."
Erina finally said helplessly.
Although she knew very well that Lin Xu was no ordinary person, she never expected him to have such a remarkable encounter so quickly.
"hehe!"
"You are the noble eldest daughter of the Nakiri family, and the daughter of Nakiri Managi."
"Even if I were to replace her and take charge of the WGO Food Organization, I wouldn't dare let you bow to me!"
Lin Xu touched the tip of his nose and said with a smile.
Chapter 91: Preaching, Instructing, and Resolving Doubts
"Ding dong!"
"The characters Erina Nakiri and Alice Nakiri, who are bound to the system, have received another +2 positive reviews for tasting the braised pork and glutinous rice."
"Ding dong."
"Congratulations, host, you have obtained the recipe: Beef Bowl!"
丼。
The Japanese pronunciation is "don".
Although the standard pronunciation in standard Mandarin is dǎn or jǐng, in China, most people are actually more accustomed to pronouncing it as dòng.
The term "丼" in Chinese refers to the sound made when something is thrown into a well.
however.
In Japanese.
The character 丼, however, has no relation to the meanings mentioned above.
Instead, it refers to a serving utensil for holding rice or noodles.
Donburi is a type of traditional Chinese dish where various ingredients are poured over rice served in a bowl.
……
Beef Don.
Main practices.
It involves cooking sliced beef and shredded onions together with a special sauce, then serving it over rice.
When eating, it can be served with pickled red ginger strips and kimchi.
Because it is simple to make and convenient to eat, it is widely popular among office workers!
"Gyudon? Now the system rewards are also related to the dishes that the bound character eats?"
Lin Xu had just returned to his dormitory, showered and tidied up, and was lying on his bed when the system voice that suddenly appeared in his mind startled him awake!
In terms of flavor and characteristics.
Braised pork with glutinous rice is rich but not greasy; the rice absorbs the meat juices and becomes soft, sticky, and oily.
Using traditional braising techniques and adding spices such as mountain yellow peel, the sour and sweet flavors are balanced, creating a unique flavor profile.
Of course.
