"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly feel that this is also a test of heaven's principle... It's unfair, it's unfair!" Ying, who talked nonsense, made Paimon even more worried.

"Hmph... Do you think this can hit me? I'm a traveler who has experienced so many worlds, what kind of wind and waves have I never seen? Even the forced separation from my brother didn't break me, just a glass of juice, A glass of juice... woo..."

The steaming feeling in the eye socket, and the blurred vision due to the water droplets, Ying, who couldn't help blinking, couldn't hold back the flood control line of the teardrops, and Yingbu buried her knees on the ground with her legs together. Nodding his head, he couldn't help sobbing, and the turbulent tears fell on Paimon's face.

Wow wow wow... not good!Ying what happened to her?After traveling with Ying for several months, this was the first time Paimon saw Ying cry so hard.Paimon, who was hugged tightly, tried to avoid the tears that burst from the embankment. After unsuccessfully, he lowered his head and raised his hand. While covering the tears dripping like a torrential rain, Paimon became even more puzzled.

juice?Did Xia Yu make juice just now?What's wrong with the juice?Can anyone help me review what just happened?There is no way to comfort Ying!

"Don't be discouraged, Ying, if you want juice, you can buy it directly after we return to Mond, or go back to Mr. Xia Yu to help him make some." After shouting loudly, she was surprised to find that Ying's mood had improved a lot.

Yep...just a glass of juice!After getting into a good relationship with Xia Yu, wouldn't you just drink whatever you want?And it's not that I can't make it myself, but I think it's a bit troublesome to make juice because there is no recipe...

After dealing with the Twarin matter, you must have a good relationship with this powerful chef, and then go to the next country to find clues related to the gods!The goal that the girl had set in her heart before became firmer.

Chapter 50 Elaborate cooking vs magic cooking, Xia Yu who doubts life

Compared to the quiet and relaxed atmosphere on Xia Yu and Noelle's side, Xiang Ling, who was making final preparations in the competition venue, was much more busy.

Slaughtering wild boars, bloodletting, shedding hair, removing internal organs, and then completing the cutting of the required parts, due to years of experience in camping and cooking in the wild, Xiangling, who is busy and busy, quickly completed the preparations. However,...

Still so tired!Looking at the finished pork, Xiangling frowned as she shook her slender but powerful arm.

From the battle with the Qiuqiu people, the slimes and finally the frozen tree after entering the valley, to the rush to bring the wild boar back to complete the division, no matter how good your energy is, working continuously for so long will definitely have an impact on your state. Next up is a game with Bullock.

Even if he used the unique ancient wild boar, the quality of the tender meat on the Brock table was definitely not too bad.What's more, my chef's heart will never allow myself to spoil such good meat!

"Are you both ready?" Durav, who came to the competition venue, was so excited that his expression was beyond words. After confirming the raw materials of Xiangling and Brock's preparation area, just as Durav was about to announce the start of the game, a young The women walked into the venue where Bullock was.

"It is common sense in the kitchen to have a chef to assist when cooking. This is Siegfried, and she will serve as my deputy in the competition." Brock, who was introducing Xiangling, looked confident . "Of course, you can also find a deputy to assist you in cooking, and if there is a shortage of people, I can also recommend it for you."

Done!How did you forget this?The suddenly enlightened Xiangling finally found out what she always felt was missing something - a deputy in charge of assisting in cooking!

Assist the chef in cleaning and pre-processing the ingredients, help remember the cooking time of the food in the pot, and arrange the food on the plate according to the plan given by the chef, etc...

When cooking a large meal, relying on one chef to remember and complete every aspect of the job is a huge waste of the chef's efficiency. Therefore, finding one or more assistants to assist the chef can help the chef. Greatly improve the efficiency of work and the quality of dishes.

Therefore, the assistant can play a very important role in cooking.

What should I do... Could it be that I ask Xia Yu?But his cooking seemed to be still being made, and he saw Xia Yu put the meat on the grill and tray into the oven.

The temperature control of the oven and the control of the time cannot make any mistakes at all. A little bit late by half a minute may lead to the destruction of the dishes with just the right heat... Just when Xiangling felt embarrassed, he walked towards the competition venue. Ying and Pai Meng appeared in Xiang Ling's field of vision.

I don't know the cooking level of the rest of Qingquan Town. Although I can trust the professional chef Brock's cooking qualities, it is obvious that the best deputy must have been selected by her!

It just so happened that Ying had mentioned that her cooking skills were not bad. Moreover, when fighting in the valley, Ying's excellent martial arts and neat swordsmanship also proved her agility, and it was definitely no problem to assist her in cooking. .

"Ying~ Paimon~ this way, this way! Come and do me a favor!" Ying, who walked in front of Xiang Ling, had a slightly changed temperament for some reason, which made Xiang Ling feel a little confused. For some reason, his state seemed a lot more serious, and his eyes were a little red, as if he had secretly cried.

Hmm... Probably because she misses her brother?Xiang Ling, who walked around in Mond City, naturally saw the missing people notices posted in various prominent locations. From the detailed description, it should be Ying's brother who was being searched.

But these questions are inconvenient to ask... Just let her try the dishes she cooked for a while, and her mood will definitely improve a lot!The determined Xiangling asked Ying very seriously: "Ying, can you be my deputy in the cooking competition?"

————————————————————————

After the temperature was measured, the barbecued pork that reached the best condition was sent to the oven by Xia Yu. In order to ensure that the juice of the pork plum blossoms was preserved to the greatest extent, the meat that had just entered the oven needed to be locked with high temperature.

At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that the meat is not burnt, so adding a small amount of water to the lower tray for fumigation and controlling the temperature in the furnace has become the best solution.After covering the iron door of the oven, the game that had already started above the stone steps caught Xia Yu's attention.

Although I really want to see what the cooking process of Xiangling is like, in order to get delicious barbecued pork, experienced chefs have to stay by the oven most of the time.

The reason is also very simple, that is, at the right time to add honey sauce sauce to the skin of the barbecued pork, and to refill the very fragrant honey sauce water mixture that drips into the tray and naturally becomes viscous under high temperature. Brush back to the surface of the barbecued pork.

There is no special barbecue thermometer, and the old roasting furnace does not have a professional temperature control structure. The temperature of the furnace can only be controlled by adjusting the ventilation openings of the iron cover. Therefore, the process of making barbecued pork is not the same as the original world. In this way, after the time for each step is instructed to the helper, the helper can complete the rest of the process.

Xia Yu, who carefully observed the pork and plum meat in the hearth through the vent on the iron sheet, aroused Noelle's curiosity. Although he saw Xia Yu's cooking every day on weekdays, those times were more like outings. Freehand.It was the first time that Noelle had seen such a serious expression today.

Could it be that this dish is difficult to make?But the process of making it doesn't look much different from grilling pizza and grilling meat, doesn't it?Hmm... In this case, I can only wait for Xia Yu to finish cooking the dishes before learning how to make this somewhat special barbecue from him.

Noelle, who stood up and came to Xia Yu's side, carefully observed the changes in the meat in the oven: a small amount of rising steam should be the moisture added to the oven, and the sizzling skin was protected by this very little moisture. It was not burnt in the high temperature furnace, but it dripped into the tray with the sweet nectar sugar that originally wrapped the meat on the bottom...

Are you saying it failed?But Xia Yu's eyes were as sharp as a beast staring at its prey, but there was no change... Just when the little maid was confused, Xia Yu's voice brought Noelle back to her senses.

"Noelle, stand back a little bit, I'm going to turn on the oven."

ah?At this time, the meat is not good... Although the doubts in his heart are increasing, Noelle still took a few steps back according to Xia Yu's words.

Putting on insulating gloves, he took out the grill and tray from the hearth, quickly coated it with a layer of sweet nectar sauce and turned the barbecue, Xia Yu quickly returned the dishes to the hearth.

After completing the first process, Xia Yu, who finally found time, explained to Noelle: "The roasting of the barbecued pork is not done in one go, it needs to be smeared with sweet nectar in stages to ensure a layer of skin. Thick coating. At the same time, the juice dripping on the bottom of the pan will eventually be smeared back to the surface of the barbecued pork, so it is also extremely important to monitor the juice on the bottom of the pan to ensure that they do not stick.”

What a troublesome meal!After listening to Xia Yu's explanation, Noelle finally understood why Xia Yu was so serious.

This barbecue must not only ensure the regular tenderness and juiciness of the barbecue, but also ensure that the sweet and sweet honey that is easy to burn off and will not burn, and the process of applying the sauce and turning over the barbecue must also be done. Quickly, otherwise the reduced temperature will damage the texture of the meat...

Rounding up is equal to continuously adjusting the temperature of the furnace according to the roasting condition and keeping it within a reasonable range!It takes years of experience to do this alone.

So...how does a roast that's so troublesome taste?Noelle's heart began to look forward to it.

With the application of sweet nectar over and over again and the rework of the sauce that has become viscous after the steam on the bottom of the plate has almost evaporated, the skin of the char siew, which was originally very red and bright, can be seen to the naked eye with layers of brilliance like baking varnish. And the beautiful brown-red shell, finally, after the last bit of dark red sauce was re-smeared on the surface of the barbecued pork by Xia Yu, the barbecued pork with a tempting aroma was officially announced as complete.

The thick sauce shell on the surface of the ruby-reflecting barbecued pork completely wraps the meat. Through the translucent shell, the oily and slippery luster between the visible texture of the barbecued meat is enough to show the juicy texture. How perfect the preservation is, with the rising heat that just came out of the oven...

what! ?Before Noelle could take a closer look at this beautiful barbecued meat, Xia Yu took out the large pot lid and covered the barbecued pork tightly.

Xia Yu blushes slightly with Noelle's urgent and aggrieved eyes looking at him eagerly. "Don't worry, this last step has not been completed yet, I will let you enjoy it later." Putting his hand on the surface of the pot lid to feel the temperature inside, Xia Yu, who has basically completed the whole process, started the final 's explanation.

"Because the roasting and heating process matures the meat from the outside to the inside, part of the roasted meat juices contracted by heat will flow into the small plate for serving, and part will be squeezed to the middle of the roasted meat to let the meat in the middle of the roasting be squeezed. The gravy goes into an 'oversaturated' state."

"When the barbecue is finished, if you cut it directly, the over-saturated juice will overflow, and the quality of the barbecue will be reduced by a large grade. Therefore, let the juice in the middle slowly return to its original level after it is left for a while. It's where it should be, and that's one of the secrets of cooking a roast."

"During this process, in order to prevent the excessive loss of temperature and the further loss of gravy caused by surface evaporation, it is a good choice to find a larger cover to cover it. Of course, there are many knowledge about covering, first of all It is the internal humidity that needs to be controlled so that it does not affect the crispness of the shell, and secondly, when the temperature is too high, it must be deflated and ventilated, and the specific time and how to control the deflation requires experience.”

Amazing!It turns out that there is still so much attention to barbecue... Noelle, who felt that she had benefited a lot, nodded blankly.

It's no wonder that the dishes that Xia Yu makes on weekdays are so delicious. It must be that there are countless small details in the production process of each dish, like this, if you don't pay attention to it, you will miss it.After looking at the lid of the pot eagerly for several minutes, Noelle, who felt that he couldn't help it, finally saw Xia Yu lift the lid off the pot.

As the curling water vapor slowly dissipated, the barbecued pork as beautiful as dark red amber finally appeared in Noelle's field of vision.The barbecued pork picked up by Xia Yu was quickly and precisely cut into the thickness of Mora coin in Noelle's eyes, and the watery section that still maintained the heat made Noelle's saliva start frantically. secreted.

"Try it, the taste is guaranteed to be beyond your expectations." Xia Yu, who smiled and brought a sliced ​​barbecued pork to Noelle's eyes, handed over a plate of gravy and sauces collected during the barbecue. thick dipping saucer.

"This is the original juice of the barbecued pork. The taste is too strong. You can choose whether you need to dip it according to your personal taste." Xia Yu, who smiled and observed the expression of the little maid, made Noelle feel a little embarrassed for a while, but after all Unable to resist the temptation of delicious food, Noelle, who seemed a little nervous, put a small piece of barbecued pork into his mouth and slowly chewed it.

The shell is sweet and rich in the aroma of compound sauce. The meat that is divided again and again between the lips and teeth will burst out every time it is squeezed. The meaty, even savory roast pork bursts into the mouth with every bite.

Due to the sufficient marinating in advance, even the innermost layer of the meat will not spoil the whole tasting experience because of its blandness. The taste of this barbecued pork, called char siu, can no longer be simply described as delicious. The perfect experience brings A sense of joy even.

Ugh...I can't find any words to describe this wonderful taste in my mouth...After a long time, Noelle, who finally came back to her senses, looked at herself with a smile on her face with admiration. Xia Yu.Obviously, the series of reactions that he didn't even know happened when he tasted it had definitely been recognized by Xia Yu as the best dish for this dish.

Although countless words were conceived in his mind to describe the taste he had tasted, but when he really wanted to say it, Noelle was nervous to find that the words he had conceived seemed insufficient to describe the wonderful experience just now.Noelle, who blushed, became more and more tangled.In the end, Noelle, who was stammering, only choked out a few words like a babbling child.

"Very...great taste experience...Thank you." In Xia Yu's surprised eyes, the shy Noelle lowered her head with a rare blushing face.

————————————————————————

Phew~ I'm finally done!Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief at the perfect ending of the barbecued pork. Next, he only had to wait for Noelle to cut the barbecued pork and hand it over to Mr. Duraf and Chef Brock. The meat supply he needed should be a sure thing.

The work on my side has been completed. I wonder how far the game between Xiangling and Brock has progressed?Xia Yu, who was curious about the progress of the game, trotted to the arena, but happened to see a scene that made Xia Yu feel silent:

I saw Ying threw something like a cleaned lizard tail into the pot under Xiang Ling's encouraging eyes, and then, encouraged by Xiang Ling, went to the vacant iron pot and started to prepare appetizers.

Wait... what is she going to do! ? ?

The whole chicken drumstick and shiitake mushrooms were simply washed and thrown into the boiling iron pot. Along with them, there were all kinds of unopened seasoning packets and I didn’t know what they were used for. The wooden sign... Then, Ying, whose face was as pale as water, quietly waited for the items in the pot to roll up and down in the water...

Is this really cooking?Just when Xia Yu felt a little confused, a scene that made him even more suspicious of life appeared:

As if confirming some critical moment, he stretched his hand towards the iron pot and slapped it on the mouth of the iron pot with a slap. To Ying in the iron pot that had finished cooling down for some time, he took out two large strings of fragrant wild mushroom chicken skewers from the pot...

The scene was so bizarre that I didn't know how to describe it, but it didn't arouse any doubts from anyone other than myself. Bunch of praises came from the residents of Qingquan Town who were watching the game. Even Xiangling on the side and Brock as opponents and the others. Her assistant chef is also praising Ying's cooking skills...

Hey... is this really cooking?Instead of someone just stunned himself and replaced all the things in the fluorescent pot by the way? ? ?

Since all the dishes were finished, Xia Yu, who had no idea what was going on, quickly came to Ying and carefully observed the wild mushroom chicken skewers held by the blond girl for a while. Find out what magical reaction is going on.

It seems that she noticed Noelle who came to the arena with the sliced ​​meat. Ying, who was attracted by the mellow and slightly sweet aroma of meat, first looked at the chicken skewers with wild mushrooms in her hand, and then tasted it carefully. Looking at the barbecue that Noelle brought, the blond girl raised her hand with a smile and handed the chicken skewer she made to Xia Yu's eyes.

"Want to try it? You can exchange the barbecue you made with Xia Yu~"

Chapter 51 Keli + Little Durin=?

The result of the competition is self-evident. Under the circumstance that the difference in cooking skills between the two is not large, Xiangling has found a wild boar that was hunted to extinction for being too delicious a hundred years ago for the first time. won the game.

For this reason, Dulav's mood seems to be extremely lost. Dulav, who was sitting at the dining table with his companions and gulps down the wine, seems to be regretting that he killed the wild boar without asking in advance what the condition was. ate this thing.The face of the hunter leader who seemed to be drunk for a while seemed to be crying and then laughing, but he completely lost the reliable look he used to guide the young hunters.

"Oh? Mr. Xia Yu and Miss Noelle..." It seems that he found Xia Yu and Noelle who came to look for him. Dulav, who shook his head after putting down the wine glass, focused on Xia Yu. on his body, and then stammered: "You... don't worry... I approve of Mr. Xia Yu's cooking skills! The three roast pork you have eaten tonight is the best. !"

As if to emphasize his excitement, Dulav, who was unsteady, gave Xia Yu a thumbs up even with his upper body on the dining table. "Although the meat supply is covered by everyone in Qingquan Town, that taste... I will supply you with the most favorable price, please help us spread the word~"

"Oh... that's right!" Seemingly recalling something, Dulav, who held his chin with one arm and thought for a while, finally said: "And thank you for bringing my grandfather Olaf back here. This thing, although it feels a bit strange... but after all, it is also a family of Katz Rhine blood... family... You say my daughter Diona, why did she go to Mond City to become a bartender Woolen cloth?"

Wine can make a person talk more, and it can also make a person sleepy, but Durav, who belongs to the former, has completely opened the conversation box, talking about his daughter, Durav asked him to drink at the table. The companions on the top all showed their usual expressions.It looked as if there was something wrong with the matter that had been bothering him.

"Mingming was so cute when she was young, and when I took her to learn hunting skills, she still looked at me with admiration and said, 'Dad is the best!' Something like that. But why when I grew up? She just ignored me, and didn't even practice the hunting skills she taught her on weekdays, and went to become a bartender... hiccup!" Durav, who was telling the old story, let the wine at the same table. All the guests showed good smiles.

The drunk Dulav fell on the dining table and fell asleep. Although he had been listening to him complaining all the time, Xia Yu had already received the best news for him - he was able to get Qingquan Town at the reserve price. High quality meat!

"Don't worry, Mr. Xia Yu, even if Dulav forgets us tomorrow, we will remind him." The hunters at the same table also showed friendly smiles. Obviously, such a wine party has already been used for them in Qingquan Town. is the norm.

"Well, then thank you in advance. If you pass by my booth in Mond City on weekdays, I will also give you a preferential price in Qingquan Town. The location is on the stone steps next to the Angel's Gift Tavern. Go down to the location near the side door." After expressing his thanks to many hunters and promoting a wave of his own shop, Xia Yu walked out of Brock's small restaurant with Noelle contentedly.

Outside the door, Ying and Paimon, who were quietly waiting for Xia Yu and Noelle to appear, approached. "Xia Yu Xia Yu, the barbecue just now was really delicious! Is there a chance to taste it in the future?" Paimon with golden eyes floated to Xia Yu's eyes, with a look of anticipation written on his face.

"Of course there's no problem, the barbecued pork will be included in my recipe, but it should be in a few days." Xia Yu, who replied to Pai Meng and Ying, looked extra confident.

Taking into account the eating habits of the Mond region, this slightly sweet and sauce-flavored barbecue is more acceptable to the public than spicy food. After Abedo delivered the finished refrigerator, the meat was served with sauce the day before. Pickled, and sent directly to the oven the next day to bake out for sale.

As for the main dishes and side dishes, although few people in the Mond area have the habit of eating rice, the juicy and tender barbecued pork is still an excellent match with bread. The sour spring onion, tomato and egg drop soup is a set meal that suits the taste of the Mond region.

"Okay!" Paimon, who heard Xia Yu's answer, happily circled in the air, and even Ying on the side showed a longing look, but after a few seconds, the girl's face with a slightly wrinkled brow changed again. Very confused.

Will you be able to taste it in a few days?But how long do you have to stay in the Mond area...

Jean, Diluc, and themselves will clean up the operations of the Abyss Order in the Mond area in the past few days. According to him, Wendy needs to recover a little after being injured by the Abyss Mage that day, in order to cope with it in a few days. Various emergencies that will occur when going to the Ruins of Wind Dragon.

In other words, he will stay in the Mond area for more than a week, after solving the problem of Twalin and understanding the required information, if the gods in the Mond area and his relatives do not have a guardian of heaven or a brother If you have relevant news, you will definitely need to set off towards the next destination.

Didn't you just miss the time when these delicacies started to be sold?Are you destined to miss out on delicious food?Ying's mentality has undergone such a change...

————————————————————————

The items and supply channels needed for the official business are generally ready. The only thing that is missing is waiting for Abedo to send the device to accelerate the fermentation and the refrigerator. The feeling that everything is ready and only owed to the east wind fills Xia Yu's heart with a sense of satisfaction. .

It is not easy to develop from hunger and cold to the wilderness step by step... The next life should get better step by step, and when the domestic monsters grow up and face the abyss sect, the safety issues are also guaranteed. , I can even go to the Liyue area to play.
