Gourmet Beast Tamer

Outside the kitchen, in the living room.

Song Hui and Su Zhi were quietly waiting for Qin Lang to finish cooking.

As time passed by, the atmosphere in the living room gradually became awkward.

Su Zhi kept clenching her little hands and then loosening them, as if she was worried about Qin Lang who was working hard in the kitchen.

Her eyes wandered around the living room aimlessly, but they always avoided where Song Hui was sitting.

Song Hui looked at her daughter several times and opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

After a long time, it turned into a faint sigh.

The moment she discovered her daughter was missing yesterday, it felt like the sky had fallen for her.

Fortunately, when she was most confused, her daughter was found by the young man named Qin Lang in the kitchen, and she was not in any danger.

She originally thought that the matter would end there, and if her daughter was coaxed, nothing would go wrong again.

However, the impact of running away from home this time did not end as she thought. Instead, when she got busy again this morning, it turned into her daughter's crying and neglect, leaving her not sure what to do.

As a Yuling chef who is good at desserts, Song Hui is capable of making delicious desserts.

In the past, when my daughter was unhappy, a piece of dessert would make her happy for a long time.

However, this time, the dessert didn't seem to work so well.

Perhaps as Qin Lang said, it was all because he didn't have much time to spend with his daughter, so her daughter was always alone.

But she is a foodie, she has her own responsibilities, and she also has a huge daisy garden to take care of.

How can these be given up at will?

Song Hui rubbed her eyebrows. She showed a gentle but tough attitude on the outside, but finally showed a bit of weakness and dejection in front of her daughter.

Maybe I am really not successful in being a mother.

It wasn't until footsteps came from the kitchen door that she raised her head again and looked at Qin Lang, who was walking over with a delicate dessert plate.

Following Qin Lang's footsteps, there was also a rich fragrance that Song Hui had never smelled before.

The scent lifted her spirits, and her previous thoughts were temporarily suppressed.

As a food recommender, her professionalism allowed her to judge a lot from the aroma in an instant.

The aroma of jujube paste and the special aroma of lard.

It turns out he needs lard. Is lard used instead of butter to make desserts?

And this unique smell...is it fried?

Desserts made by deep-frying?

For a moment, she looked forward to the answer sheet Qin Lang handed over.

The next moment, as Qin Lang placed the dessert plate in front of her mother and daughter, Song Hui saw the entire dessert.

Her eyes widened unconsciously.

The petals are pink on the outside and white on the inside. There are countless layers of petals, which are as mesmerizing as the blooming buds. In the center of the petals, the dark red date mud is still emitting traces of heat, exuding a rich date fragrance.

The green leaf-shaped dessert plate specially selected by Qin Lang makes the delicate color of the lotus flower stand out more vividly.

Just by seeing the color and smelling the fragrance, Song Hui could roughly tell that this dessert would be good.

Such a dessert was made by such a young chef? !

If she hadn't said anything else, just by looking at the appearance, she would have thought it was a new creation by a well-known dessert master.

"Wow!"

Su Zhi's cry of surprise made Song Hui recover from the shock.

She looked at her daughter who couldn't wait to hold one up carefully to taste it, and then at the young man standing aside, with a somewhat complicated expression on her face.

Because she helped her find her daughter yesterday, she was grateful to this young man named Qin Lang.

So after learning that the other party came to visit the food recommender to obtain the badge, Song Hui started to worry about it.

Making dishes that can make Su Zhi happy is a test that reduces the difficulty for Qin Lang and also gives an opportunity for the relationship between mother and daughter to ease.

Su Zhi is still young. Although she is equally picky about desserts under her own influence, she is not as strict as herself.

And Song Hui could tell that Su Zhi liked Qin Lang very much.

In this way, as long as Qin Lang's desserts are pretty good, it is almost inevitable that Su Zhi will be happy.

Qin Lang passed, Su Zhi was happy, and the relationship between mother and daughter also had a chance to ease, killing three birds with one stone.

However, at this moment, Qin Lang's cooking skills were somewhat beyond her expectations.

Elegantly and carefully pinching a piece of lotus pastry, Song Hui bit into the outermost pastry petals.

The thin pastry becomes crispy during the frying process, and as you chew it, a subtle "click" sound can be heard between your lips and teeth.

The layered and unique texture of the pastry does not require too many taste embellishments. The fragrant but not greasy aroma of the pastry is enough to make it a delicacy worthy of Song Hui's astonishment.

Just the puff pastry on the outside is so amazing, but what about the jujube paste filling in the center?

Song Hui carefully took a bite of the brownish-red jujube paste inside, with a look of surprise on her face.

The jujube paste exposed at the open part of the petals is full of rich fragrance and a little more oily when activated by hot oil.

Although the date paste inside has not been in direct contact with the hot oil, it has been in contact with the lard that quickly passed through the pastry during the frying process.

The aroma of lard and the unique sweetness of date paste are mixed together in this process.

One mouthful of jujube paste, two flavors.

And these two flavors blend into each other as you chew, and they are just right.

Only the outer layer is slightly oily and the inner layer is slightly dry.

The mixture of the two is just right.

After slowly tasting a piece of lotus cake, Song Hui looked at Qin Lang with a slightly different look.

"What's the name of this dessert?" she asked softly.

"It's called Lotus Crisp." Qin Lang replied.

"Lotus cake..." Looking at the lotus blooming in the dessert plate, Song Hui nodded slightly and said, "This name is very good."

"Zhizhi, do you think this dessert can pass the test?"

"Huh?" Su Zhi had just finished eating the second piece, and now he put down his hand that was reaching for the third piece of lotus cake, looked at Qin Lang, nodded heavily after a moment, and said with a smile on his face, "Okay!"

"Since Zongzhi thinks it's okay, congratulations on passing the test." Song Hui stood up and walked to a room. She quickly took out a badge that shone with metallic luster under the light and handed it to Qin Lang's hand. "This is Daisy." badge."

"Thank you!" Qin Lang took the badge and looked at it.

It was a copper badge, with the same outer outline and size as the fish scale badge, but the front was made of green, like a lawn in a garden dotted with daisies.

A golden ribbon divides the front of the badge into two diagonally, and on the lower right side there is a large daisy with each petal carefully carved.

At the bottom, there are ribbon embellishments and the small words "Dongxia City·Daisy" engraved on the ribbon.

This is the exclusive badge for food recommender Song Hui, the daisy badge!
