[Interstellar] King of Food

Li Haoxuan ignored Chu Zhao, who looked unlovable, and strode into the classroom.

The courses in the new semester are very simple. The teacher got to know the students in the class before he started to give lectures. Maybe he was afraid that these people would not adapt. The elegant teacher told a lot of interesting things about his school days. It was spent in laughter and laughter.

During class, Chu Zhao wrote a small note from time to time, poking the back of Li Haoxuan who was sitting in the seat in front of him.

Feeling angry, Li Haoxuan took the note and walked quickly, and answered his previous question on it: "Eat mapo tofu and boiled fish for lunch." I watched the teacher throw it back while writing on the blackboard.

"It's great!!!" Chu Zhao couldn't help cheering after receiving the note. He was immersed in the delicious meal that he would eat immediately, and suddenly felt that the classroom was a bit too quiet. He scratched his hair and looked up. Go, what you see is the teacher and classmates looking at him with surprise, curiosity, and anger, and the back of Li Haoxuan lying on the table in front of him, trembling and laughing non-stop.

"Uh, actually I can explain..." Chu Zhao licked his lips and smiled at the glaring teacher.

..............................

"Haoxuan, you are too mean, and you don't explain it to me." Chu Zhao still lay on Li Haoxuan's back as if he had no bones.

Li Haoxuan, who had resigned himself to his fate, walked towards the dormitory with his back on his back. Thinking of what happened in class, he couldn't help laughing and said, "You are very funny, but you didn't confess to me. You just said that you were bored in class and asked yourself questions with your left and right hands. Writing a small note, the face of the teacher at that time..."

Li Haoxuan couldn't help laughing when he thought of it, and said with a smile: "The expression on his face at that time was like saying 'I'll just sit here and watch you talking nonsense', hahaha."

Chu Zhao was a little depressed: "It's miserable now, and I will be educated by my father again."

After entering the dormitory, Li Haoxuan instructed Chu Zhao to wash the rice, soak it for a while and put it in the rice cooker. The ratio of rice to water was kept at 1:12. It can make the steamed rice softer, sweeter and golden.

Then Li Haoxuan took out the ingredients to be used from the refrigerator, first put the cubed tofu into boiling water with salt, and soaked it in clean water after removing the beany smell.After the oil in the frying pan is hot, put the ground beef and stir-fry until golden brown, add bean paste and chili powder and other seasonings, put the tofu in and cook for a while, the soup is delicious, spicy and delicious, then add salt, Seasoned with sugar and soy sauce, thickened with wet starch, served out, sprinkled with a handful of pepper noodles with pure numbness, covered with a layer of light red chili oil on the surface, and the fragrant mapo tofu is ready.

Sitting on the chair by the dining table like a good baby, Chu Zhao, who was still holding a pair of chopsticks, sucked in his saliva, and quickly and accurately picked up a piece of steaming tofu and was about to put it in his mouth.

"Hey..." Before Li Haoxuan had time to say it, he saw that the piece of tofu he picked up was shattered under the force, so he handed the spoon in his hand to Chu Zhao who was stunned, and said with a smile: "Fry it!" The well-boiled mapo tofu is so tender that it can only be eaten with a spoon.”

Chu Zhao was also polite, grabbed the spoon, scooped up a full spoonful and put it in his mouth, gasping for breath when it was hot, and swallowed the spicy and fragrant tofu with difficulty while patting his chest.

Li Haoxuan looked at his devouring appearance of not having eaten in 800 years without saying a word, and did not fight with him. He scooped up a spoonful of golden and shiny beef minced meat with a spoon, blew it patiently, and then slowly put it into his lips. It melts in the mouth, leaving the mouth full of crispy fragrance.

Chu Zhao, who had been watching his movements from the corner of his eyes, quickly scooped up a spoonful of granular beef mince and put it into his mouth. While eating, he still gave Li Haoxuan a thumbs up to express his appreciation, and mouthed: " Fish... fish..."

After eating two mouthfuls, Li Haoxuan warned: "After eating boiled fish, your throat will be sore easily. It's better to drink more water or chrysanthemum tea to moisten your throat, and boiled fish will be cooked with a lot of chrysanthemum tea." Oil, over time fat will accumulate and fat will appear, and eating too much chili will cause acne.”

Chu Zhao chewed tofu, stretched out his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and perfectly expressed the idea of ​​"I don't care at all".Li Haoxuan nodded, got up and started cooking boiled fish.

Cut the head and tail of the fish into slices and marinate them evenly with salt, cooking wine, potato flour and protein. This will soften the meat and make the taste of the ingredients smoother.Pour three times the amount of cooking oil into the frying pan. After the oil is hot, add watercress and stir-fry until fragrant. Add green onion, ginger, garlic and other seasonings. After sautéing until fragrant, add fish head and fish tail and chopped fish bones, and turn to low heat Turn to high heat, add cooking wine, pepper and other seasonings and continue to stir-fry. After a while, add hot water. After the water boils, put in slices of fish and spread them with chopsticks. bean sprouts in a big pot.

"When can I eat boiled fish?" Chu Zhao, who ate up a plate of mapo tofu, complained, clutching his stomach, "I'm about to starve to death."

Li Haoxuan wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Wait for a while, it will be ready soon. You should put out the steamed rice first."

"Okay." Chu Zhao was also very happy that he finally had a place to use his skills, and nodded in response.

After hearing Chu Zhao's answer, Li Haoxuan turned all his attention to the work in hand: take another pot, pour in half a catty of oil, turn off the heat after the oil is hot, and let it dry for a while, add Chinese prickly ash and dried chili, and stir-fry over low heat. Aroma, when you see that the color of the chili is gradually darkening and is about to turn brownish red, turn off the heat, pour the oil, pepper, and chili into the fish bowl, and the spicy and delicious boiled fish is ready.

The red hot pepper rolling in the churning hot oil makes people move their index fingers. After taking two mouthfuls of rice, Chu Zhao ate the fresh and tender boiled fish with flying fingers. The speed made Li Haoxuan dumbfounded while watching.

"Ah, hemp, spicy, fresh, tender, and fragrant, this is really a rare delicacy!" Chu Zhao wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue and said in admiration.

The corners of Li Haoxuan's lips twitched, and he scooped up a few bean sprouts in the washbasin-sized basin with a big spoon. As soon as he picked them up, Chu Zhao picked them up quickly and put them into his mouth with his chopsticks. After chewing and swallowing, he burped in satisfaction.

Li Haoxuan pinched the bridge of his nose and couldn't help sighing.

After the two of them finished their meal, they saw that it was almost time, and rushed to class again. In the afternoon, a female teacher with light make-up gave a lecture, and her words seemed to have a smell of books, and sometimes she would bring some awkward ancient prose, Speaking of rising, he would recite a few lines of Tang poetry and Song poetry, which surprised Li Haoxuan. He thought that those cultures had been submerged in the long river of history.

People in the Interstellar Era didn't seem to like this way of speaking very much, and there were very few people in the classroom. Li Haoxuan didn't notice it, and took all kinds of notes seriously.Although it is not his wish to go to school, it is good to learn more things without being overwhelmed by too many skills.

Before you know it, it's time for get out of class to end, Li Haoxuan turned his head, and slapped Chu Zhao who had been sleeping on the table awake: "Wake up, let's go eat."

"What's for dinner?" Chu Zhao, who was still soundly asleep just now, raised his head from the desk, rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked Li Haoxuan next to him.

"Well, let me think about it." Li Haoxuan touched his chin: "I have been cooking in the dormitory for the past few days, and I haven't eaten in the cafeteria yet, why don't I stop cooking today and let's go to the cafeteria? !"

"Ah?" Chu Zhao's face was broken: "When you didn't come, I always ate in the cafeteria, and I didn't think much of it, but since I'm used to eating your dishes, I don't want to eat in the cafeteria at all. Compared with your craftsmanship, it can be said that there is a difference between cloud and mud."

"Then let's go back and cook." Although Li Haoxuan felt a little regretful, he still changed his mind.

"Don't!" Chu Zhao waved his hand, "That's what I said, it's good to have a change once in a while. Let's go, Xiao Xuanzi, I'll take you to learn more."

"Okay." Li Haoxuan followed behind him, and the two of them approached the cafeteria dangling.

Rather than saying that it is a canteen, it is better to say that it is a small castle: the spire is tall and the walls are painted white, which is very eye-catching.When you take a closer look, the viewer will be unconsciously attracted by the unique symmetrical beauty.

Walking into the door, you can see the long table covered with white tablecloth and the shiny silver plates, knives and forks and other tableware wiped on the table.The bustling crowd told the food they needed by the wooden windows one by one, and everyone’s faces were filled with happy smiles. Yes, no matter how unsatisfactory the day was, how many grievances in their hearts needed to be vented, but in You can still put it in front of the steaming food.

Looking up, you can see a huge chandelier with big diamonds hanging from it.Against the background of the light, the diamonds exude a dazzling light.The outside of the restaurant was as dark as ink, but the inside was as bright as day.

"It's so beautiful." Li Haoxuan first praised, and then frowned, "But it's also a bit uncomfortable, like the feeling of time being turned upside down after falling asleep."

Chu Zhao nodded: "This restaurant will indeed give people a sense of confusion. Fortunately, my father is still at home proudly saying that this is how many well-known design teams and famous design masters he hired, and he spent a lot of money. It’s a restaurant that was renovated with a lot of money.”

Li Haoxuan was in trouble, thought for a while and said: "Then let's go back, I'll make shredded taro tonight, I see that there are taro in the ingredients delivered from the refrigerator."

"No, No, No," Chu Zhao shook his fingers, looking mysterious, "Since you don't like the lighting here, let's go upstairs, the mystery of this restaurant is more than that."
