The reader on Casanova's site drives me nuts. Why doesn't it go back to the top. Anyway, rad chapter as usual. I wonder if Mimasaka will join the ranks of enemy-turned-buddy. edit: Also, I think Fuyumi and Hinako are some of my favorite characters in this comic. kidcoelacanth fucked around with this message at 02:21 on Oct 1, 2014 |

I'm amazed with how many puns the author is able to get out of Soma's name.

It helps that words starting with either "la" or "ra" are valid ways to pun off "Yukihira".

You'd think that just throwing a half-dozen different kinds of meat cooked all different ways into a stew would just kinda make a mess and taste weird if eaten together. Like yeah, if you eat each type one at a time that'd maybe be okay but then you should've just made like a half dozen different bowls of stew??

There's definitely a way to cook all of those cuts in different ways to create an assortment of textures and flavors which go well together (which is one of the points of a dish).

At least in terms of manga logic, yes, Souma pulled it off. In reality, it just doesn't work that way. And especially not when you do it on the fly. On a fundamental level, it's just not a beef stew at that point, it's an assortment of beef with a sauce that can't possibly go well with everything in that diverse assortment; it's just a jumble of stuff that you simply can't call a stew. Even so, for me it's one of those things where even if you know better, you're okay with because it has an internal logic.

I would dispute that. It's possible to have all those different cuts of meat happily in the same dish. I eat it every chance I get. It's called Pho. You get round steak, fatty flank, lean flank, brisket, tripe, tendon, and meatballs all in one bowl, and nobody is going to complain that it doesn't work. You can even get "Pho Ngau Pin", which is ox penis. Therefore, both intellectually and for story purposes, I believe a dish could exist and work.

It also seems like it's served in a much shallower stew than previously, so it's likely that it's supposed to be eaten meat by meat rather than just getting a big spoonful of whatever. It's different from a stew, yes, but the whole point is that it was supposed to build off of the base of a stew.

If none of it is cooked in the same pot, is it even stew? Granted, it wasn't required to be stew at all. Souma just decided to use beef stew for the contest, so this beef assortment in a miso sauce thing isn't breaking any rules.

He thought they were fighting on a beef stew battlefield, and then - BAM - Souma shows him that it's actually The Wizarding World of Beefy Potter.

In animated/illustrated form you can go an extra step and eliminate this to the point of having Invisidick(tm) be the only thing even close to male anatomy anywhere on a page.

Goddammit, it wasn't even intentional.  Anyways, I hope to see more Mimisaka not being a jerk in the future! I have to wonder though, did he become all thuggish looking while working for that Ninth Seat guy?

IME, fully drawn, but disembodied dicks tend to be more common than completely invisible ones. And they're usually disembodied because the panel cuts them off. "Invisidicks" do appear, but that's usually to appeal to those who have a fetish for seeing the insertion with outthething actually going into it obscuring the view. Older manga and doujinshi used to leave a white void, but that was both for censorship and reduction of effort since it was still all hand-drawn. Now, it's not quite as common anymore for whatever reason (artists' pride?)

Huh, I actually don't know who will win. The early praising of Hayama's genius made it seem like Kurokiba would win in a shocking upset, but then Hayama got the smug cliffhanger line. Although the bigger question is why the pushups?

Eh, I saw that mostly as giving some backstory to someone who we previously knew almost nothing about. Hayama's been set up to be a big rival to Souma, so I don't think him losing is even remotely likely.

The crowd is as stupid as always, though. Oh, it's pretty much over because of how the preliminaries went. No matter how the theme just happened to be curry, which Hayama has spent his entire life perfecting in particular.

Uh, how else do you cook duck? For some reason they think duck smells bad; the real problem with cooking duck is that duck is greasy as loving hell. The way one of my great-grandparents used to cook it was splitting a whole loaf of bread and putting the duck on top of that in the oven to draw all of the grease out.

Compendium posted:There's sous vide style! Aren't these competitions timed? I may be inferring something because I am an unrepentant Iron Chef addict, but sous vide is not a valid *cooking* option under timed cooking conditions. If, on the other hand, you wanted to cook something, then keep it hot and ready without it going dry from being stuck in a chafing dish for hours? Sous vide is the way.

I don't remember if the Autumn Election has a specific time limit (like there is one probably, but I can't recall if we were told explicitly), but you're right, a sous vide would probably be impractical for a competition if your limit was under two hours.

Can use the sealing (if rocking with a chamber sealer) to do a sort of quick pickling. Many dishes can use sous vide's precise temp control in combination with the quick pickling to do some neat things even within a 2 hour window. Poultry, fish and pork can all be done in less than 2 hours and don't necessarily benefit from the ultra-long cooks that you usually see associated with sous vide. I really doubt we'll see one used within the current competitions we're watching, but there's plenty of valid reasons one could have been used. Moreso if our cast weren't all Anime-Perfection-Chef's that can absolutely perfectly cook everything with every heating method as if they were human PID controllers.
