Chapter 423: Sowing Weed Seeds (4)
‘The combination of the dishes is perfect’
In fact, Min-joon didn’t think the co out the individual taste of each dish whilevarious dishes with each other, but it was not so tricky to perfectly fit the combination itself
The real problem was each individual dish The specific recipe he came up with for noas just one, nanon, sonon What Min-joon and Kaya decided to do with this dish was to bring out the richness and saltiness of the soy sauce rather than its sweetness So, they had to be very careful in choosing soy sauce They didn’t put lots of sugar in it, which was the usual case with typical short braised ribs And all of that was for the fish dish that Min-joon had in mind, namely, deep-fried sea bass seasoned with a sweet and sour sauce with fruit jam on top then accompanied by fruit paste or jelly used in the jam This was a dish that clearly revealed his preference, who liked to make fruit-related sauces uous to call this a Korean dish,” said Kaya
“Honestly, it’s close to Chinese food By the e are not supposed to ht?” asked Min-joon
“That’s right I’ood because it shows your taste I think a chef’s own staood It’s more fun than you think,” she said
“You will find this combination itself much more fun than ht not be able to realize it well They ood harmony of Korean, Chinese, and japanese dishes But this wasn’t that coue, chefs in Korea tried to mix Korean food with Western food instead of Chinese or japanese food
Of course, he could understand it because Asian cuisine, especially Korean, Chinese, and japanese dishes, had a lot of similarities So, it was more difficult to properly mix the unique taste of each other’s dishes because even most of their characteristics were the same Of course, with Chinese spices, it would be possible to make a different co spices could completely kill the Korean or japanese taste
Besides, fusion cuisine itself was not a dish that could appeal to people Of course, when you go to a Western restaurant in Korea,was fusion cuisine since they didn’t know much about Western food
However, it was not the same case in Korea, China, and japan People there had quite a bit of knowledge about Asian dishes They kneas a fusion, and they could feel that the taste of the fusion wasn’t familiar to them And they often ood
Of course, this kind of phenomenon was common in other countries As a result, there were not many chefs who could make fusion dishes properly In Western-style restaurants, various dishes tended to be mixed more and more under the name of molecular cuisine and creativity in recent years, but Asians had a strong tendency to value the traditional taste of Asian food
It was hard to start so If the wall of Asian fusion cuisine was torn down, people would probably say the start of all this was a whole Asian meal on one table Min-joon and Kaya intended to enjoy that little glory in this contest
The chef’s daily life was supposed to be thoroughly dependent on what customers felt about their dishes, from the moht be cherished in their ht think of such a chef as part of their lives by being regulars at the chef’s restaurant
But such a relationshi+p with the customers would be at an end the moment they died Of course, there were many jobs in the world that had the sa that would never disappear forever He wanted to leave his own legacy, and he thought the only thing he could do was a recipe
‘But this cooking project in the semi-finals is different in nature’
The more he tried to think seriously, the ht of the final results, nae the history of the culinary world Of course, the results of this coes in an instant
It was fun Kaya was a Westerner, and Min-joon’s specialty in cooking was Western food
Nonetheless, they were now at the forefront of the globalization of formal Asian dinner
Min-joon’s eyes shone sharply The ized he felt
“What do you like about fruit? As I said earlier, I think oranges, strawberries, or even pineapples would be okay What do you think?”
“As you said, fruits with moderate acidity would be nice But when I think about it, pineapple is not good Pineapple has a unique and strong scent It probably kills all the taste of sea bass”
“That would be the saerines, would it be better?”
“It should be sour only enough to remove the fishy smell and make you feel refreshed in yourall the ingredients”
“Okay”
Min-joon and Kaya al when they spent ales began to take their seats Was it because of ties appeared this time, namely Bastien and Norris
Norris first opened his redients fro You have 72 hours Everyone, please work harder!”
He didn’t make any other comments other than that Min-joon wondered if he had been waiting in the venue to ht that Bastien would have rather his staff member announce it, Norris and Bastien approached other pairs and spoke to them
It was Norris who approached Kaya and Min-joon
“I heard fro to make one whole erous to make such a dish in France, but I want to try it”
“I’ you to criticize it Actually, I’ve asked to cheer for you Frenchourmets And they are familiar with most French dishes They can check out the delicate taste of a dish like a gourmet Of course, it can make them narrow-minded…”
