At this moment, the audience in Meng Fei's live broadcast room were instantly excited when they saw this scene.
[Oh my god! I didn’t see it wrong! These were actually cut out by the host with a knife! ! ]
[Oh my god, I originally thought the host was just good at cooking, but I didn’t expect that the host’s knife skills are also so good! ! ]
[If you haven’t watched the live broadcast, who would have imagined that these lotus flowers were actually carved out of fish meat! ]
[Not only that!! Didn’t you notice!! There is not a single scrap of food on this chopping board! Oh my god! The host is so awesome!!]
[Anchor! Please accept my knee! ]
【..........】
After a moment, Watanabe Ichiro came to his senses and picked up a lotus with an incredulous look on his face.
Suddenly, a delicate and soft touch came from his fingers, and Ichiro Watanabe was shocked. He widened his eyes and couldn't believe what he felt. As an experienced chef, he has a keen sense of touch and judgment of ingredients.
At this moment, he had confirmed that the lotus was carved from fish meat.
And he used that extremely heavy Chinese kitchen knife!
"This!! This!! This is impossible!! How could that broken kitchen knife carve out such a perfect lotus!!! You must have switched the fish meat in the middle of the process!!! Yes, yes, yes! It must be like this........."
The more Watanabe Ichiro spoke, the softer his voice became, and finally his throat choked with sobs and he fell silent completely.
In fact, it knew best whether Meng Fei cheated or not. It had been watching the whole process of Meng Fei cutting the fish, so there was no way it could have had the chance to swap the fish.
But Ichiro Watanabe still did not give up. He carefully put the lotus in his hand into his mouth.
When the lotus touched the tip of his tongue, an indescribable delicious taste instantly burst out in his mouth.
Watanabe Ichiro opened his eyes wide, feeling the sweet and delicious taste of the fish. He had never tasted such delicious fish before, and he had never thought that fish could be carved into a lifelike lotus while maintaining its original taste and flavor.
This unique experience shocked Ichiro Watanabe, and also made him realize that he really lost this time.
"Is it delicious?" Meng Fei asked with a smile, looking at the embarrassed Watanabe Ichiro.
Hearing Meng Fei's words, Watanabe Ichiro's face looked a little ugly, but he still maintained his momentum, raised his chin and sneered.
"Humph! This only shows that you are good at knife skills. As a chef, it is not enough to just be good at knife skills. Chinese cuisine is all about color, fragrance and taste. I see that your dish has none of those!!!"
"Oh? It seems that you still won't give up, haha, you are really stubborn!!" Meng Fei sneered, turned around and walked towards the vegetable garden.
After a while, I picked up a kohlrabi, some carrots and some potatoes.
Meng Fei washed them all, cut them into shreds and set aside.
Then take a small basin and gently pour the carved fish into the basin. Then take a bottle of rice vinegar and slowly pour it into the basin until it covers the fish.
The next second, a magical scene happened.
The lotus flowers that were originally in full bloom suddenly began to slowly close as if time had gone back, and finally remained in the same state as when they had just bloomed.
Everyone was stunned by this scene.
"Amazing!! Really amazing!!! You are worthy of being Brother Meng!" Old Liu said in shock.
"Uncle-master, please tell me quickly, what is the reason for this?" Long Jian asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"The rice vinegar used by Brother Meng is not ordinary rice vinegar, but highly concentrated vinegar essence. I think it is to kill possible parasites in the fish meat. Moreover, after being soaked in vinegar essence, the fish meat has been cooked to half done and is completely edible. The closed flower phenomenon we saw just now is because when the fish meat is half cooked, the internal fish meat will become tight and dense, and the flower will shrink accordingly." Old Liu explained patiently.
"Xiu'er! Xiu'er! That's awesome!! How did he come up with that idea?!" Long Jian looked at Meng Fei with admiration in his eyes.
At this time, Meng Fei saw that the fish was almost cooked, so he took out the fish and poured it into the shredded fish he had just cut, then added appropriate amounts of salt, MSG, sesame oil, chili oil and other seasonings, and finally did not forget to sprinkle some white sesame seeds.
As Meng Fei gently stirred the ingredients in the bowl, the rich aroma quickly jumped out of the bowl as if it had a soul, filling the entire courtyard, making everyone's eyes light up.
"Come on, you won't give up until you try it." Meng Fei put the dish in front of Watanabe Ichiro with a smile.
Ichiro Watanabe hesitated for a moment, but finally picked up the chopsticks, picked up a lotus bud and put it into his mouth.
The next second, a strong and fresh aroma bursts in the mouth, which contains the deliciousness of fish, the sourness of rice vinegar, the crispness of cabbage, and the sweetness of carrots...
All the flavors are mixed and intertwined together. Instead of being noisy, they complement each other and finally blend together to give people an ultimate taste experience.
Ichiro Watanabe was stunned for a moment, forgetting even to chew, and stared at the delicious food on the plate in shock.
He really couldn't believe that such simple and cheap ingredients could be put together to make such a delicious dish!
“Snap!”
The chopsticks in Watanabe Ichiro's hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound, which brought him back from his shock.
Ichiro Watanabe took several steps back before he managed to steady himself. He looked at Meng Fei in shock and shouted in a hoarse voice.
"You!! You!! What's the name of your dish!!!"
"Killing fish." Meng Fei said calmly.
"Killing fish... Killing fish..." Ichiro Watanabe quickly searched for the memory of this dish in his mind, but he couldn't remember it after thinking for a long time.
"Impossible!! Absolutely impossible!! I know all the eight major cuisines of China!! This famous dish does not exist in any of them!!!" Watanabe Ichiro roared.
Hearing what Watanabe Ichiro said, Meng Fei smiled, took two steps forward, and an excited look appeared on his face!
"Oh? Haven't you heard of it?? Then let me tell you today, this dish is the ninth major cuisine in China!!"
“Northeastern cuisine!!!”
