2 Furikake Rice

"What do you mean ?" Hisako frowned.

"I mean do you have the rice that has been overnight ?" Lin Hui asked. He frowned a little, did this missy didn't even know overnight rice?

"Do you mean leftover rice? Are you crazy? You dare to cook with leftover rice and serve it to Miss Erina ?" Hisako said as she pointed her finger directly to Lin Hui face.

"Please show some respect, Miss Assistant." Lin Hui said calmly as he brushed aside Hisako finger.

"You..." Hisako said with a red face, still pointing her finger to Lin Hui.

"Hey, hey, we are here for the test. Hey man, I have some overnight rice here. This is the breakfast that I make last night. A pity I don't have time to eat this morning. Do you want it ?" Souma said as he took a lunch box and opened it, revealing plain white rice inside.

"Thanks, errr, what is your name ?" Lin Hui took the lunch box and asked.

"Souma, my name is Yukihira Souma." Souma said with a wide grin in his face.

"Nice to meet you, Souma. I'm Lin Hui." Before Lin Hui and Souma could continue to chat, Erina hurriedly interrupted them.

"Do you all want to start or not? I only give you 1 hour to finish the cooking." Erina said as she snorted.

"We will continue to chat later." Lin Hui said as he walked toward the kitchen tool counter.

When most people that came for the test like Souma bring their own tool, Lin Hui didn't bring anything. He came empty-handed, with only his clothes on and his wallet.

On the counter, there were many kinds of knife laying. After carefully inspected the knife, Lin Hui picked a Japanese style Chef Knife.

"It's you!" Lin Hui said as he traced the knife main blade with his finger. After choosing the knife, he walked toward the ingredient counter. He picked 4 chicken egg, green onion, seasoning,... Basically essential ingredient for fried rice.

"You want to cook fried rice?" Hisako said as her mouth twitched. He dares to cook this kind of civilian food and serve it to Miss Erina? Didn't he know that Miss Erina always loathe this kind of civilian food?

"Yes, is there any problem ?" Lin Hui asked calmly.

"Nothing, go on." Hisako said as she immediately left and walked toward Souma counter.

Lin Hui ignored her as he closed his eyes. He slowly regulated his breathing and opened his eyes again.

Not too far away from Lin Hui counter, Erina spectating the abominable Chinese man that bullied her Hisako. Her face changed as she could feel his momentum suddenly change greatly.

When Lin Hui saw the new task he achieved, he knew he must go all out to complete it! God Tongue as a reward! Moreover, it was an enhanced version of it. Although he didn't know how much stronger it was than Erina God Tongue, it would always be stronger.

Since Lin Hui arrived in this world 15 years ago, he always doing nothing but one thing. Cooking. Basically, he always practising the cooking skill in the system space. Oh, did he forget to mention the system?

Same as most traverser, Lin Hui got a cheat on his own. In his case, he got a system named [Gourmet God System]. The system only had one ultimate goal, made its host be the Gourmet God!

Since getting the system, Lin Hui practising on the system space for an entire 15 years! A fucking entire 15 years! Luckily he didn't age a little bit from the original body 15 years old age, otherwise, he was a 30 years old uncle now.

Lin Hui suffered the most brutal training that a cook could ever imagine. Basically, the lightest training he ever did was chopping 1,000 potatoes into a cube. Well, all kind of cook basic skill training.

Although Lin Hui didn't dare to say he was invincible yet, but based on basic skill alone, he knew no one in the same age or even older cook could match him. After all, he had an 'extra' 15 years to practice.

Based on the system assessment, here was Lin Hui attribute:

[Name: Lin Hui

Cooking Skill: 4-Star Advanced

Basic skill: Knife Skill - 8 Star, Frying 7 - Star, Baking 7 - Star, Boiling - 7 Star,...

Special Skill: -

Talent: - ]

Basically, Lin Hui already mastered all kind of cooking method to an extremely high level. Moreover, most chef usually specialized into what they were good at. It was extremely rare a cook like Lin Hui that mastered all kind of cooking method appeared.

Without wasting any more time, Lin Hui quickly grabbed the nearest green onion and chopped it up at lightning speed. In just less than one minute, all kind of ingredient that needed to be chopped already gone.

Lin Hui grabbed a big wok and put it on the stove. He turned the stove into the maximum setting, creating a flame tongue licking all over the wok. Not too far away, Erina and Hisako already exclaimed at the sight of fire, which made Lin Hui sneer a little. Sure enough, a spoiled missy like them must never saw fried rice being cooked before.

Why Lin Hui used overnight rice to cook fried rice? It was because freshly cooked rice had a lot of moisture on them. If you cooked fried rice with a freshly cooked rice, the moisture from the rice would make the rice sticky and thereby affecting the taste. Meanwhile, overnight rice didn't have this issue as most of the moisture already drawn out.

For most people that cooked fried rice, they usually fried the egg first before putting the rice in. But for the Golden Fried Rice recipe, it needed the rice to be put in first!

Lin Hui took Souma lunch box and poured the rice to the wok. He took the 4 egg and cracked them by the wok.

Although Erina and Hisako never cooked fried rice before, they knew the egg usually get in first. But this Chinese man, he put the rice first before the egg? Out of curiosity, Erina took out a file from the transfer student applicant from Hisako.

Lin Hui? Zhonghua Yifan? 200 years old restaurant?

Erina frowned as she never heard Chinese restaurants named Zhonghua Yifan before. Moreover, a 200 years old restaurant should be relatively famous, why did she never heard of it before? She decided to ask her grandpa after this test was over.

Before Lin Hui finished his cooking, Souma already presented his dish to Erina.

"I present to you my Yukihira secret menu #8..." Souma grinned as he lid the cover slowly.

"Furikake Rice!"

Erina and Hisako casted a dumb look toward Souma. Really? A fucking Furikake Rice? This was even worse than Fried Rice that Lin Hui planned to serve!

"You must be joking!" Erina shouted as she smacked the table hard.

"Just as I thought, a second rate cook. Hisako, let's go, this is just wasting my precious time. A Furikake Rice and a Fried Rice?! God, I shouldn't expect much from a second rate cook." Just as Erina planned to leave, Souma once again speak.

"Hold on, it's not going to be a ordinary Furikaks Rice! It's a "Morphing" Furikake Rice!" Souma said as he showed a small cup filled with scrambled egg.

Erina and Hisako once again casted a dumb look. Erina face almost turned blue as she felt she was being played by this red-haired punk!

"Hehe, do you think this is your ordinary Furikake Rice. No, you doesn't see the true face of my dish yet!" Souma said as he poured the small cup content toward the hot rice.

Erina cast a surprised look as she could see a weird phenomenon in front of her. There was some kind of cube hidden between the scrambled egg, and it was slowly melting! A rich chicken aroma made its way to Erina's nostril.

"Yukihira Secret Menu #8 ready to serve!" Souma grinningly said.

Erina swallowed her saliva slowly as the tempting rich chicken aroma constantly seduced her.

"Just one bite! I will be generous today and taste a single bite for you. If you want to heat over my judgment, hand over that bowl!" Erina said as she flicked off her hair.
