Green Azure Dragon bun.
The dough is made with spinach juice, and the filling is sea cucumber.
The Black Vermillion Bird bun, on the other hand, uses black sesame powder for the dough, and its filling contains crab meat and abalone.
The Red Vermillion Bird bun uses carrot juice for the dough.
As for the filling!
It definitely uses red shrimp.
As for the last White Tiger bun, it directly uses white flour, and the filling contains dried scallops, shark fin, and so on.
…
"What a rare delicacy."
Mana whispered to herself, having already secretly decided.
Next time there's an opportunity, she must make Chu Yang continue to make this unforgettable seafood bun for her!
"Cough cough!"
Then, Mana pretended to cough twice.
Anne, Decora, and Kuragi immediately turned their gazes towards her.
"Chu Yang, your cooking is not only a respect and interpretation of ingredients, but also a profound exploration and perfect presentation of the art of cuisine."
"Take this Eight Delicacies Seafood Bun, for example; every bite is a surprise, every flavor is uniquely crafted."
"Honestly."
"I rarely see."
"Such a deep and soulful culinary work."
Speaking of this, Nakiri Mana slightly stood up, her eyes revealing an unprecedented seriousness and solemnity: "Therefore, I, WGO Special Executive, hereby officially announce."
"Chu Yang, you have reached the extremely high standards required by our WGO Culinary Organization for a First-Class Executive!"
"Your talent."
"Your culinary skills."
"Even your passion for food."
"Are enough to make you shine even brighter in the culinary world!"
"Congratulations, you have successfully been promoted to First-Class Executive!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire room immediately erupted in warm applause.
That was Anne, Decora, and Kuragi's high recognition of Chu Yang's performance in this assessment.
…
Under the emerging consumer demands.
A new profession began to emerge: food tester!
Similarly, other professions that came into being include: sleep testers, esports athletes, plastic surgeons, bartenders, and so on.
Food tester.
As the name suggests, it means tasting food.
Then offering one's feelings and suggestions for improvement, mainly for new products, requiring a very keen sense of taste.
For example, McDonald's often launches new products.
But before launching, they will let many food testers try them, then improve them, and only when they meet the taste of most people will they officially launch them.
Hmm!
There are two types of food testers.
One is a freelance individual food tester, and the other is an executive like the WGO Culinary Organization!
Individual food testers are actually those food bloggers.
They go to various food establishments to taste food, then write about their experiences, telling their fans which food establishments have good food.
Their income mainly comes from fan revenue; successful bloggers mostly earn a lot, with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands in income per month being quite normal!
…
Of course.
Many catering enterprises spend high prices inviting food testers to taste dishes.
The purpose is often not to improve the taste of the dishes; the most direct reason is to advertise.
To improve the taste of a dish, just find a few regular customers, let them try it for free and give suggestions; why spend a lot of money to invite food critics to comment, "Your dish is trash?"
The celebrity effect.
And the advertising benefits behind it, are the ultimate goal.
Therefore, to become such a famous food tester, the first step is to improve your network in the catering industry and accumulate a certain level of recognition.
The second step is to at least have a certain culinary foundation, be able to articulate the nuances of a dish, tell a good story, and say things that both diners and restaurant owners love to hear.
Due to the existence of the God's Tongue.
Therefore, Nakiri Mana and Nakiri Erina are definitely the two strongest food testers in this world!
Their evaluations of dishes almost possess absolute authority.
A word of praise.
Is the best affirmation for a chef.
While a word of criticism can ruin a chef's future career!
…
In the original plot.
When Erina was a few years old, she was already supervising many famous restaurants, constantly tasting various dishes.
Sometimes, a single evaluation from her could influence the future of a restaurant.
And many famous chefs were willing to spend huge sums of money to invite her to taste and give evaluations, because if they could get the approval of her "God's Tongue," it would be enough to make a name for themselves throughout the culinary world!
Even in the hall where countless top food critics gathered, Nakiri Erina's presence was like a crane among chickens.
Her taste and insight.
Made even the most subtle flavor differences impossible to hide.
Yes!
She is not only a gourmet.
But also an extremely strict and universally feared food critic.
The ability known as the "God's Tongue" by the world allows her to precisely capture every minute detail of ingredients:
From origin to season, from cooking method to seasoning ratio, and even the chef's infused emotions and craftsmanship, all transform into clearly discernible notes on her tongue.
Even.
Under her evaluation.
Every dish seems to be endowed with life, its merits and demerits clear at a glance.
And Erina's power is not just reflected in her astonishing sense of taste.
Regarding cooking.
Regarding food.
She also has a unique and profound understanding.
So much so that in the distant Neon Country, countless chefs consider it an honor to receive Nakiri Erina's recognition.
…
In terms of food appraisal ability.
Perhaps, Chu Yang cannot compare with Mana and Erina, who possess the God's Tongue.
However.
In the culinary field.
His attainments and achievements far surpass anyone else's.
And after this assessment, Chu Yang officially became the youngest First-Class Executive in the history of the WGO Culinary Organization!
"I'm truly looking forward."
"With Chu Yang's current ability, to what extent can he change her?"
"The God's Tongue, while giving her the strongest weapon, will also definitely cause her life's path to veer off course due to the inner demons brought by its curse, just like me back then."
"Chu Yang."
"Can you change it?"
"Can you… truly change her, just like you changed me with your cooking back then?"
Looking at the familiar figure, Mana's eyes were filled with complexity.
