Chapter 261 Ghost Father Finally Appears!

As a top ten.

Si Yingshi must have unparalleled cooking skills.

But compared with the previous top ten players, what he displayed was a "coward" image.

Judging from the cherry blossom shrimp that was served, Si Yingshi's best thing is his understanding and processing of any ingredients.

As the first seat.

He himself will be under pressure from all aspects of Totsuki Academy.

Therefore, many times, it can be seen from some details that he is depressed and negative.

He is often too anxious when it comes to dealing with school affairs and receiving diners, so that he gives the impression that he is a bit neurotic. In this regard, when Xiaobayashi Ringtong takes care of his stall, he is anxious to care about this and that. Yes, I am afraid that if something is not done well, I will be able to peek into it.

However, there is no doubt about it.

In terms of cooking skills, especially in the grasp and handling of ingredients, he always has absolute self-confidence and confidence!

Although this was the first time Tadokoro met Siyingshi, she was keenly aware that Siyingshi had the ability to make the ingredients of every dish appear on the plate as if they were alive.

And such an ability makes her feel terrible!

…

From beginning to end.

He just added some surface improvements to the ingredients, and the brightest flowers bloomed.

Tadokoro once sighed, can the ingredients be used like this?

The concept and method of using fire to cook difficult-to-digest food did not seem to be too important in his mind.

Whether it's sashimi, cooked food, desserts, cold dishes, etc., the dishes he makes are all "cold".

Yes.

It's really cold.

Basically, there is no need to use "fire" for cooking.

"Uh haha, I really can't hide it from you, Xiaolin Ringtong!"

Si Yingshi could only touch the back of his head in embarrassment when the gentian stabbed him in the painful spot, and then he could only smile slightly.

"Xiao Hui, do you know?"

"I don't know since when, some professionals in the entire culinary world began to give Si Yingshi a very interesting title."

When he was eating most enthusiastically, Kobayashi Ringtong suddenly turned his head and smiled at Tazoe: "The white knight on the table!"

"ah?"

"White…white knight?"

Tian Suohui was suddenly stunned.

"Yes, it is said that he can bring out the delicious ingredients to the extreme and dedicate himself and his pride to the dishes. This ability will be enough to profoundly change the culinary world in the future!"

As he talked, Kobayashi Ryo finally couldn't hold it in any longer and laughed loudly: "Hahaha... When I first saw this sentence in a food magazine, I couldn't help but laugh until my stomach hurt. Tadokoroe, you Isn’t it too funny to say this kind of title?”

Staring at Rgent Kobayashi, she covered her mouth and smiled softly, but she did not forget to pick up the food with a knife and fork.

At this time, Tian Suohui was speechless.

But in her heart, she has become more convinced that the top ten in this class, especially the first and second seats, are all "wonders".

One is always weak and incompetent in character, but the other is full of foodie attributes.

well!

How worrying!

Totsuki Academy is led by this group of "seniors" with weird personalities. I'm afraid it's a pill!

…

"Yes, it is."

"The original taste of some ingredients can conquer diners."

"It's absolutely difficult for me to achieve such cooking methods and cooking concepts."

At this time, Tadokoro seemed to be no longer nervous. After all, when he first came to this place, he almost lost his soul every time he thought that this was the booth where the top ten men stood at the top of Totsuki Academy. No more scared!

I am very afraid that when facing such a big shot, I will anger him with a word or an action!

Therefore, when she first came in, she was actually very cautious and submissive.

But when she saw Si Yingshi, he was even more "weak" than her.

Her heart relaxed a little.

The rumored first seat seemed not to be much scarier than he thought.

As a result, she gradually tried to integrate into this more easy-going atmosphere.

"uh-huh?"

"You are the only one... still thinking about surpassing Si Yingshi?"

Hearing this, Ringtong Kobayashi couldn't help but said seriously: "Don't look at him like this. When it comes to cooking skills and understanding of ingredients, he can represent the best in Totsuki Academy today, bar none!"

"Of course it can only rely on ingredients without using other cooking techniques. Only the monster in the izakaya can surpass Si Yingshi."

"Shopkeeper Zhang?"

"Yes...yes, he is the strongest."

Upon hearing this, Tian Suo Hui nodded in agreement.

"Gentian, next is the drinks, do you want something to drink?"

"Oops, even though I have been running a stall at the school festival for three consecutive years, there are still some things I didn't do well. I'm really sorry!"

Seeing that Kobayashi Gentian was about to finish a plate of cherry blossom shrimps, Si Yingshi asked in a panic.

"Drinks?"

"The only thing that can go with this cherry blossom shrimp is wine, right?"

Kobayashi Rgentan thought for a moment and then made the final decision.

"OK, I'll get ready right away."

After saying that, Si Yingshi returned to his cooking table and prepared to make wine.

…

As we all know, France is a world-famous wine producing area with a long history of wine production.

According to French law, French wine is divided into four levels:

Legal production area wines, fine regional table wines, regional table wines, and everyday table wines.

Among them, wines from legal production areas account for 35% of the total production, fine regional table wines account for 22%, regional table wines 15%, and daily table wines 38%

Pour in wine.

The clear and translucent amber color is swaying and flowing, just like the dancing fairies in a dream.

The delicate and smooth nectar slowly swirls in the mouth, and the fascinating fragrance sways gracefully. It slides into the throat, and a warm and harmonious feeling slowly settles in the warmth.

"Huh~"

"Sure enough, at this time, a glass of wine is the best thing."

"Well, mellow and elegant, fruity, fragrant and sweet ice wine is something you will never forget after drinking it."

“However, compared to the sake in izakayas, it’s still a lot less interesting!”

Perhaps he drank a little too much, but at this time, a faint blush slowly began to appear on Kobayashi Ringtong's face, and he was obviously a little charming under the light.

"Izakaya?"

"From what you're saying, someone seems to be better than me in terms of ingredients and brewing?"

Si Yingshi had already heard information about "izakaya" from Kobayashi Rgentan several times, so he inevitably became curious.

"Um!"

"It's time to tell you his story!"

After saying this, Xiaolin Ringtong told Si Yingshi one by one about Zhang Fan's deeds.

…

Black gradually fills the sky.

Countless stars broke through the night and were densely embedded in the dark night, like crystal and sparkling gems on the blanket.

In the neon country, there is a very popular food comic "Etsuki Bento Story". The plot is about Daisuke Nakahara, who loves railway bento. On his 10th wedding anniversary, he unexpectedly received a special gift from his wife:

Take a train and travel around Neon Country for a week.

So, the protagonist boarded the "Fuji" express train and started a wonderful [ekiben] journey from Kitakyushu.

Um!

From this, we can see the sentiment of Neon people towards [ekiben].

Neon Country’s train bento. Known as Ekiben, it originated from Utsunomiya Station on the Neon Tohoku Main Line in 1885.

The original train bento was very simple.

It's just two rice balls sprinkled with sesame seeds and refined salt and pickled radish. The vendor wraps them in bamboo leaves and sells them on the platform.

In the past, train rides took a long time, so there was a high demand for station lunches as a meal on the train.

With the emergence of the Shinkansen and the improvement of general train performance, the travel time required for travel has gradually become shorter, and the positioning of station lunch boxes has also changed.

Now, ekiben is not limited to being enjoyed in the train.

More and more people are buying it as a reward for themselves or enjoying it with family and friends during dinner parties.

In the Linshan area, there is a large-scale stall store. Its layout and decoration are like a train. Even the staff inside are transformed into "conductors", which makes every diner who patronizes feel very novel. .

Every time I come in, I enjoy the treatment of a "passenger".

at the same time.

On this train.

One of the most popular delicacies is the ekiben.

And there are many types, including salmon and fish roe bento made from various seafood products, Sendai beef tongue bento, and Kobe beef bento...

…

Now, open the lunch box.

The first thing that hits your nose is the fresh aroma of rice, mixed with the hint of soy sauce and vinegar, which is mouth-watering.

The rice is cooked just right, neither too soft nor too dry.

In addition to mushroom chowder, there are also:

Beef shank steak.

Beef sirloin steak.

Beef belly steak.

Cook the broccoli.

Fried pumpkin.

Fried lotus root.

Boil the carrots.

As far as the eye can see, there are actually full bowls of beef shank, beef diaphragm, and beef belly!

This made the eyes of a middle-aged uncle who had just come in to consume flicker. After all, the three types of meat were very troublesome to prepare.

The steak is seasoned and grilled piece by piece by the "artisan" Eizan Edazu. The beef shank is the deliciousness of the meat itself, the beef diaphragm is the sweetness of the fat, and the beef ribs are soft and soft.

All kinds of meat, if all separated, may not be interesting.

However.

If you can enjoy it all at once, that’s the best!

After all, there are very few ekiben that allow you to enjoy different parts of beef and different textures, especially for people who like meat!

…

"oh?"

"I really underestimated the strength of this ninth member of the Ten Elites."

After sighing, the handsome middle-aged uncle took a bite of the bento with chopsticks and tasted it carefully.

Lake Tazawa, the deepest lake in Neon Country, a hot spring town, and Tamagawa Onsen, which is famous for its strong acidic hot springs, has a nearby station:

Tazawa Lake Station!

Starting from here, take the challenge of crossing the Sengan Ridge and take the E6 Shinkansen "Komachi" to Tokyo.

There is very little snow in Akita this winter, but the snow scene on the top of the prefecture boundary mountain is indeed beautiful.

Then, along National Route 46, near the "Teahouse of Sengantoge" famous for its sweet oden, you can see the "Komachi" running through the scenery like an ink painting.

The terrain of Sengan Pass is severe, and even though it is a "Shinkansen", it is as slow as the local line.

Therefore, it is said that there will be new tunnel plans in the future.

One day.

Will the red Shinkansen running in the snowy valley become a nostalgic memory?

In Akita, the departure station of "Komachi", a new station bento has been launched since the end of 2019. The name of the bento is "Kobe's famous steak samadhi bento", and the price is about 2,000 yen.

On the wrapping paper of the small box, there is a picture of Kobe beef, and the background color is the brown color of the cow.

According to the manufacturer "Sekineya", the sales staff at Akita Station NEWDAYS drew illustrations and brought the idea of ​​the new product to Sekineya, and the product was commercialized beautifully.

Then Etsuya Eiyama, who has business acumen, brought this station lunch to his stall at the school festival.

For a time, the sales volume was very good and it became the favorite of many customers!

…

The quality of the beef is tender and juicy, with a delicate texture that melts in your mouth.

Moreover, you can feel that every piece of steak has been carefully cut and is of moderate size for easy consumption.

during the cooking process.

The beef also fully absorbs the essence of the sauce, with a mellow taste and rich layers.

In addition to beef, the bento also comes with a variety of side dishes, making the overall taste richer.

The rice is soft and moderate, and complements the freshness of the beef; the vegetables are crisp and refreshing, adding a fresh taste to the bento; and some specialty snacks, such as seaweed rolls, pickled radish, etc., add a unique flavor to the bento.

Obviously, in the process of tasting the beef bento, you can feel the freshness of the ingredients and the care in cooking.

Trains carrying passengers or cargo travel quickly every day, and they can cooperate with the cherry blossoms on the roadside for only a moment a year.

However, the combination of everyday and extraordinary combinations of the usual taste and the only hanging paper available now makes people feel the charm of the ekiben even more strongly!

A bento is really big.

Especially the beef, there is so much that one cannot eat it, but no matter what, the taste is endless.

In addition, the vinegared rice used to make this bento is a type of rice produced locally in Iwate Prefecture. It is bright in color and plump in grains. It is paired with large pieces of beef and is absolutely MAXIMUM in charm!

Of course.

Ekiben made with beef is really rare.

If you eat it with an attitude of trying new things, you will be full of surprises!

…

Can't help it.

In my mind, a train that looks like a silver dragon speeds along the railway track.

The car body was smooth and shiny, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun, but the closed windows could not block the hustle and bustle of the outside world and the changing scenery.

As the train speeds along, there is a slight vibration in the carriage, as if the pulse of the earth is beating.

The air is filled with the smell of station lunch boxes.

Outside the window, the scenery is constantly changing.

One moment, there are lush fields, with golden wheat ears swaying in the breeze; another moment, there are rolling mountains, which look particularly spectacular under the reflection of the setting sun.

Occasionally, you can still see a few birds flying across the sky, leaving a beautiful arc!

Boom, boom!

The roar of the train echoed in my ears, accompanied by the click of the rails, like an exciting symphony.

In this voice, this middle-aged uncle...

No.

Nakiri Thistle seems to be able to feel the power and speed of the train, as well as the length and expectation of the journey. (End of chapter)
