From time to time, I will reminisce (and of course, make up greater tales of triumph... ninjas have to be good at deception, right?) about my 20-week journey at L'Academie. Sorry, Master Chef was not assassinated by thugs from a rival cooking school so there's no tale of revenge here! Equally, there was no evil training brother that turned out to be Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
During my training, I will admit that on several occasions I mastered my Ha-Dou-Ken (Fireball or Burning Technique in the common vernacular). Actually, I would say that I invented the Art of Super Searing... Master Chef seemed to chuckle somewhat... especially when I torched my creme brulee without coating it with sugar!
For those unfamiliar with the power that is the Hadouken!
Here's an inspirational video that really fits the theme of the Cooking-Dojo...
Here's my version of the Dragon Scroll...
I am thankful for still having ten fingers and not having increases in my fire insurance premiums! Thanks to all my fellow cooking ninjas-in-training and Master Chef's assistants... as Archer would say... you are all "so Ninja"!
Quinja,
ReplyDeletewhat knife do you recommend for cutting tomatoes? i find the serrated ones are good for the ripe tomatoes.
thanks for the advice!
I recommend putting tomatoes into the freezer for about 10 minutes to "harden" them against the battle to come! Your blade wants a challenge - a victory without challenge is a triumph without glory!
