Chapter 22 second quarter

As before, Muto and Reiko were taken to the reception room together.If it is not OK this time, Chef Urushitani will take over, so Muto is actually the most nervous. Morisawa Natsuori was calm and composed, and she carefully placed the container of French almond panna cotta on the table.There are three types.Muto carefully observed the containers lined up in a row. The unit price of glass containers is about two times higher than that of heat-resistant plastic containers. Although there is pressure from cost considerations, the unique luster and high-end sense of glass containers are really hard to give up.Xia Zhi seems to think that only glass containers can set off the smoothness of French almond panna cotta.

The container is not a traditional cylindrical shape, but a circular design that gradually expands from the bottom to the outside, and there are various decorations on the top edge. Xia Zhi said: "I tried to make several kinds, and finally decided to use these three combinations." Muto asked: "Not only the shape, but also the taste is different, right?" "Yes, both of you, please confirm." As Muto requested, all three panna cottas were white in appearance.Viewed side by side, although there are some differences in the degree of whiteness, they are all within an acceptable range.

Xia Zhi seems to want to use different top decorations to distinguish the different contents. The new one on the far right is topped with fresh orange slices and zest, and topped with bright red currants that sparkle like jewels for a finishing touch.The bottom of the container containing French almond panna cotta was covered with a thin layer of brown. Muto felt that it seemed that he had poured in another coffee or chocolate-flavored panna cotta. It felt like an extra bonus. The top decoration of the new product in the center is a little different. Although the combination of transparent jelly cubes, bright red raspberries, and dark blue blueberries is not unusual at all, an extra biscuit is added on top.Is there any purpose in doing this?There is also a thin layer of camel color on the bottom of the container. Unless you taste it yourself, you don't know how it tastes different from the one you just saw.

The new product on the left is the most traditional French almond panna cotta, and the color is also the whitest. It is the milk and cream color that is not mixed with other ingredients, and even the bottom is pure white.The top is gorgeously decorated with pink grapefruit, mango, and strawberries, and a little black currant-flavored red sauce is poured on it. The green mint leaves become the focus of the color scheme. Muto and Reiko picked up the spoons. Although it was a bit scary for Muto to eat three at once, but this time he planned to eat them all because he didn't want to let down Xiaori's efforts.After all, whether you can win the "Cold Obella" can only be judged by eating them one by one.

Muto picked up the new product on the far right first. The fresh and sweet orange with the bitterness of the orange peel pickled in sugar is really special.But when the spoon penetrated into the layer of French almond panna cotta and took a bite into his mouth, Muto couldn't help but tilt his head. It's an indescribable, incredible taste. In my impression, French almond panna cotta tastes very similar to milk pudding, but this one is not the same, not sticky at all, and has a refreshing aftertaste. What is this taste...? Muto ate the second and third new products in sequence, but he was still worried about the disobedience of the first new product.He took a peek at Lizi, and saw that she was eating happily, showing a more satisfied expression than before.It seems that she thinks "this new product is very good".

After the tasting, Muto and Reiko thanked Natsuori.Xia Zhi couldn't wait to ask for her impressions. "Well..." Muto replied hesitantly: "As far as my personal preferences are concerned, I think the one that is easiest to eat is the one that I tried last." Pure white French almond panna cotta topped with pink grapefruit-no weird taste, just the right sweetness and aroma, even Muto can easily accept it. "As far as anyone can accept it, I really recommend this one. Although it is relatively unremarkable in terms of desserts, it is easy to eat." Xia Zhi asked worriedly: "Is everything else okay?"

"Not really. It's just that compared with the gorgeous style of desserts that are popular nowadays, the other two styles are more stable. Although the one in the middle is not my favorite type, it is very fashionable. Although it also tastes like black tea, it does not It’s incredible that the panna cotta is dyed a camel color like the one I made before. How do you do it?” "I made it with black tea-flavored liqueur. It's just that last time I used Earl Gray tea, this time I used Darjeeling. The aroma of this kind of black tea is easier to accept." "Is liqueur a wine that contains alcohol?"

"The alcohol content is not so heavy, because it will be warmed before adding, and when it is boiled, the taste of the wine will also evaporate, leaving only a warm and mellow taste." "Are all three made with liqueur?" “The best way to change the flavor and preserve the whiteness of the panna cotta is to use liqueur.” Seeing the complicated look on Muto's face, Reiko interrupted quickly. "I think Ms. Morisawa distinguished the characteristics of these three types very well. The one I tasted first was the French almond panna cotta made with Bailey's poetry?"

Xia Zhi finally showed a relieved expression. "Yes, are you going to eat it right away?" "Berry's is often used in panna cotta, but it's interesting that you put a special twist on it! It smells like cinnamon. Is it made with milk lightly dipped in cinnamon sticks? Detract from the pure whiteness of the panna cotta." "Yes. Because Bailey's poems are colored, if you use cinnamon powder, I'm afraid it will make the color of the panna cotta cloudy." “Bailey and cinnamon go very well together, and milk cocktails are often used in this combination! Others such as Irish whiskey, cream, cocoa, vanilla, coffee, and almonds, which are often used to add flavor to French almond panna cotta, etc. It goes really well with the cinnamon, it's the perfect blend. And then there's the layer of chocolate-flavored panna cotta on the bottom - a touch of magic that makes a strong impression, and I think it's a really good dessert. "

"thanks!" "Why is there a piece of biscuit on top of the new product in the middle?" "Because I made black tea-flavored French almond panna cotta, I wanted to create an atmosphere of afternoon tea, so I tried to create the feeling of 'black tea with biscuits'. Moreover, the taste of black tea is divided into two stages, the bottom one Instead of liqueur, the layer is panna cotta made with real black tea." "I see. It's an interesting idea to make French almond panna cotta have a different taste! The diced orange-flavored jelly is also very refreshing."

Then there is the new product on the far left - Reiko continued to say that this is Muto's favorite one, with French almond panna cotta decorated with pink grapefruit.Reiko said: "This is a dessert that anyone can eat with the appeal of 'Fruit Panna Cotta, right?" "Yes, this is a work that is faithful to the basic model. In order to emphasize the appeal of fruit, the French almond panna cotta itself is flavored with lychee and lime flavored liqueur, trying to make it based on the concept of lychee cocktail. There are many decorations on the top Fruit, I hope to give people the feeling of being easy to eat." "Do these three new products have names?" "Although the product names are all French almond panna cotta, words such as 'whiskey & chocolate', 'black tea', and 'fruit' will be added respectively." It is very "goldfinch" style, and it is a name that can tell the ingredients and imagine the taste at a glance. Muto tilted his head, thought for a moment and said, "Whiskey & Chocolate, the name seems a bit of a mouthful, and we can't just use the name of liqueur 'Berry Poetry'..." "That's right..." Reiko interjected. "In addition to whiskey, there is chocolate, but chocolate is not the main selling point." After thinking for a while, Lizi looked up at Xia Zhi and said, "How about the name 'White Ireland'?" "Very good!" Xia Zhi showed a happy expression. "It feels much cleaner." "If you are a customer who likes to taste wine, you can think of Luo just by hearing the name! If the customer asks further, the clerk only needs to explain: 'This dessert is made with Irish whiskey-based liqueur', I think a lot Customers will want to order this dessert as soon as they hear "Bailey's Poetry". Method. No, how about some Bares-flavored panna cotta for tasting?" "It's okay too...but it would be better to add some vanilla ice cream when trying it, because Bailey's tastes better that way." "That's a good idea! We deliberately don't allow guests to try the French almond panna cotta directly, leaving a little room for imagination to guess what the dessert itself will taste like... This idea is very interesting and can arouse the curiosity of the guests." "Then put Bailey's Poetry in a jar, so it's easier to scoop up." The "Dessert Palace" located in the Nishinomiya Garden has a coffee shop, so it uses a large refrigerator, whether it is Bailey's poem or ice cream for tasting, there is enough space to store it. "Then it's decided!" Li Zi said firmly: "The names of these three models are 'White Irish', 'Black Tea', and 'Fruit'. Since three models are launched at the same time, it is necessary to estimate the individual products. Volume..."
