Last night, before returning to the bedroom with a lot of things, Olivia inadvertently asked Mugan if he wanted to consider living with him: his bedroom does not require money (￣▽￣) + the bedroom has a yard where you can grow vegetables (satisfied). Mugan's little hobby) + There is a washing machine and a kitchen (it doesn't matter if you can't do laundry) + It only takes 25 minutes to walk to the No. 3 canteen (at the speed of running all the way) + Big Horn misses him very much (Big Horn: Moo~)… …

The several advantages mentioned casually are directly in line with the direction of Mugen's thinking. Mugen thought for a long time, and finally shook his head and rejected this very tempting proposal: as an intern who needs to be on call, he still lives in Better in designated places. When he got off work, the senior specially asked him to set an alarm in advance and get up at five o'clock to go out!

Moreover, the staff dormitory of the canteen No. 3 is free of money, and the garden outside the canteen is now managed by him. He lives behind the canteen and can arrive at the workplace as soon as possible. He will take time to go to Oli's dormitory to visit Olivia Bighorn Can express understanding, and then leave early thoughtfully, so that Mugan can go to bed earlier.

Sure enough, at five o'clock in the morning the next day, the door to Mugan's bedroom was slammed. Fortunately, he got up early, and after a brief tidying up, Mugen went out with a few seniors.

They are here to "eat dishes".

The ingredients for all the teachers and students of the college to eat all day are uniformly delivered to the side door in the southwest by the college's designated supplier every day. That door is only opened once a day, that is, the delivery time in the morning, so the chefs must be delivered early in the morning every day. Get up, get the stock done before the students get up.

This time, Tallinn is in charge of leading the team. He is the fourth-biggest cook under the chef. It is his turn to be on duty today, and the task of purchasing in the morning will be handed over to him. The menu was pre-determined by the chef before get off work yesterday, taking into account the balanced nutrition of the students and the cuisine that the chef of the cafeteria is good at.

"Today's menu is: Kobe Beast Meat Stewed with Vegetables and Vegetables, Roasted Carla Fish with Fragrant Fruit, Braised Dudu Fruit Pigeon, Green Rice and Rice..." Tallinn read the menu silently, and did not forget to ask a question after reading it. : "Remember?"

"Remember!" The other chefs on duty responded immediately behind him, so Tallinn remained silent.

It was getting closer and closer to the side door in the southwest corner, and there were more and more trailers in other cafeterias. This was the first time Mugen saw chefs in other cafeterias. While driving, he looked around curiously.

The chefs in the other cafeterias are so tall - this is the most intuitive feeling of Mugan.

"Intern, you wait in the car, and the rest of us go to buy the goods." He took out several large pockets from the storage box under the car seat and divided them, and several seniors got out of the car with a look of death.

I don't understand why, Muggan still nodded, saying that he would take care of the car seriously.

He quickly understood what was going on:

Mugen was stunned to witness a battle scene where vegetables and meat flew together!

Yes, battle scenes.

Around the ingredients of a whole spaceship, the chefs of the nine cafeterias started a ferocious battle with their pockets! The chefs of each canteen have prepared the menu for the day in advance, but the ingredients are only these, and the ingredients with good quality are limited, and they are not evenly distributed. Everyone wants to buy the best ingredients and delicious food. In order to attract more teachers and students to go to their place to eat, right?

So, in order to compete for the rare cara fish, the chefs of the canteen No. 1 and No. 4 fought!

In order to put the best batch of green vegetables into their pockets, Canteen No. 9 and Canteen No. 5 are going head-to-head!

Similar competitions abound, and everyone is obviously very used to this kind of scene. While the two sides are fighting, they still don’t forget to put the ingredients in their pockets. Mugen is stunned.

He understood why the chefs from other cafeterias who came to buy vegetables were so tall and mighty: this was to fight (buy) the (vegetable) ah!

However, looking at the figure of other chefs and his predecessors, Mugen suddenly became a little worried.

Sure enough, not long after the chefs in the other cafeterias came back with the dishes they bought, the seniors of their own cafeteria also came back.

"Today's menu is: Stewed Flowers and Green Vegetables (Huh? What about Kobe Beast?), Roasted Fragrant Fruit (How about Cara Fish?), Braised Pig Pork (Wait - don't you want to add Dudu Fruit?), Green Rice..." The senior Tallinn with a bruised nose and a swollen face reiterated today's menu weakly, this time the menu has been slightly changed.

Mugen was silent: Didn't you grab the key ingredients?

No wonder the business of the No. 3 canteen has been bad. It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, and she can't get good ingredients in the morning, which fundamentally determines that the dishes in the No. 3 canteen are not competitive!

In this case, the chefs in Canteen No. 3 are already very good. Since they can only use the worst ingredients, "the materials are not enough, creativity is needed." There are different tricks: Can’t get a large and complete green vegetable (← Note: This is a vegetable that needs to be made and sold as a whole)? It doesn't matter! Their dexterous hands can collect the green juice leaves they have picked up to make a perfect green juice vegetable; what if they can't grab the swollen meat from all kinds of previous meat? Don't panic~ The chefs in Canteen No. 3 have already invented all kinds of seasonings and sauces. Using these sauces and sauces, they can even make vegetarian dishes taste all kinds of meat!

For example, cauliflower is a very vegetarian ingredient. It is delicious when stewed with Kobe's animal meat with a lot of fat. A senior who can't always grab Kobe's animal meat invented a kind of sauce, this kind of sauce It was boiled with the fat of pygmy beasts. The ingredients were obviously only the most valuable pygmy beasts. However, through the formula ratio that was secretly researched, these oils and fats gave birth to the expensive taste of Kobe animal meat. Mugan tasted it himself. After this dish, the taste can be completely fake; there is no carla fish, a senior tried to use the leftovers of other fish to carefully make a new type of sauce, if you use this sauce to roast the fragrant fruits, those fragrant fruits will be It becomes the taste of grilled fish together with the cara fish, and if this fragrant fruit is sold at the window, uh... it will give people the visual effect that the cara fish is sold out, and only the fragrant fruit is left.

"It can create a feeling that the No. 3 canteen can still grab the cara fish, but the students are late and the cara fish are all sold out." - This is the original intention of the invention of this sauce.

At Imperial College, Mugan received the most orthodox cooking education. Using the best ingredients to make the best taste is the goal of the professors to make them achieve. Here, Mugan saw the use of cheap materials to cook The ultimate counterfeiting technology to match fake ingredients with real ones.

I work honestly every day, never complaining about being tired. The canteen seniors’ attitude towards Mugen has changed from a state of indifference to him at the beginning, and now he is willing to tell him a few ancient things, which is a great improvement: “When I was still a soldier before. , I was once trapped on a barren star for three years. There was only one type of tuber vegetable to eat on that planet. The soldiers were desperate to eat vegetarian food every day. Later, I thought: If I can make meat from it It’s good to have the taste. I study every day, think about it every day, and finally succeed.” Because he was not married, the chef in Tallinn simply lived in the dormitory behind the cafeteria and lived together every day. He gradually became the most familiar to Mugan. Colleague: "Don't underestimate the power of food, it was the first time for the soldiers to eat it, and they all thought we had found a live prey! The morale was boosted, and we finally worked hard. We really repaired the spaceship and flew back again. !"

Referring to his experience in the army, the Tallinn chef has a deep nostalgia on his face.
