Chapter 544: Unexpected Twist (12)
Did his jealousy change him at all? Did itlike that, he watched Nathan getting busy preparing for evaluation in a hurry
Nathan was different from Deborah in many ways He was different when he introduced himself to others His voice tregled to explain the theme of the dishes he would make
Of course, his personality like that wasn’t really important It was true he was out of taste, but he wasn’t here to show off Min-joon wanted to say that he was courageous enough to have his dishes evaluated right after Deborah
‘Maybe he has listened to my advice that he should not be scared’
When he thought so, he naturally se Nathan, he could not be happier If that was the case, his words obviously influenced Nathan enough to change his life How could he not be happier when Nathan took his words so seriously?
But it hen Min-joon tried the appetizer after the ae when he tried amuse-bouche It was made with four thinly fried potato crisps, each seasoned with a different kind of puree Peach puree, carrot puree, avocado puree, and persi on the puree, radishes, tomatoes, or herbs were added And each taste of it certainly confirmed that Nathan was a seasoned chef
Min-joon wasn’t the only one who felt so Rachel and all the other chefs liked Nathan’s a unlike him In fact, it was quite common for a chef to serve this type of puree with amuse-bouche, but it was quite difficult to make those four purees taste differently
However, there was another reason why Min-joon felt strange while trying the amuse-bouche In fact, when Min-joon visited Nathan’s restaurant recently, he praised Nathan for this particular recipe out of others that he had hidden for a long time
‘Well, who knows Nathan has used the recipe that I pointed out to hinore it, thinking it wasn’t a big deal But it was the same with the next aetable crea his recipe, that if he could serve this dish right after that puree, he could bring out the sweetness of the butter ht it was not a big deal if Nathan followed his advice Of course, he appreciated Nathan taking his advice seriously Anyway, he didn’t want to react sensitively He thought and believed so until the next appetizer was served
After the pre-meal bread and butter were served, the next was tomato carpaccio Yellow and red tomatoes cut thinly and spread like cheese on the bowl It was seasoned with only light salt, but that alone was enough to bring out the flavor of the tomato and stimulate one’s appetite
That was also recommended by Min-joon at that time Only then did Min-joon notice that Nathan was scared about inal dishes that he didn’t overcome his fear After all, Nathan surrendered to his fear…
The next appetizer was also a foie gras torchon with butternut bisque soup, which Min-joon had praised before But the problem stood out here The combination, which seeo wrong with the butternut bisque soup
Appetizers continued to come out, followed by main dishes When Min-joon tried each of thereat dish by any standards But their wrong coraded their taste
Min-joon felt like crying at that ive Nathan advice because he wanted to see dishes like this He didn’t tell Nathan to pluck up the courage because he wanted to see such excellent recipes wasted like this
By the time Min-joon ate the dessert, he moved the fork reluctantly as if he didn’t feel up to it In fact, it wasn’t just Min-joon alone who felt so The other chefs ere surprised by the excellent quality of his dishes at firstcoes’ evaluation of Nathan’s dishes was over Nathan sighed and clenched his fists, watching Min-joon and Rachel and noticing their gloomy expressions
Rachel said in a troubled voice, “Did you work hard to prepare for this contest?”
“Yes I spent the whole year preparing for this event”
“Whole year?”
When Nathan said that, she could hardly finish her words as if she was disheartened She wasn’t here to punish those who didn’t perform well She wasn’t here to punish her forht be the subject of a light entertainment for TV viewers, it was a source of anxiety and sadness for her
Maybe she sighed because she was la else for him
In the end, Min-joon said, “I told you before that you’re a great chef, but you’re too scared to challenge so new I told you you should trust yourself instead of doubting yourself”
