[Orc] Food Age

Mu Bai had heard a little about the dark culinary world, and thought it was probably the kind of terrorist organization that would go to hell with a thousand knives, but he thought it was far away from him, so he didn't pay much attention to it.However, this is the third time he has faced the dark cooking world, and Mu Bai feels that he still needs to learn more about the dark cooking world.According to the frequency of "encounters", Mu Bai felt that the day when he faced the dark cooking world would not be far away.

Although the small actions in the dark cooking world caused Yi Tian and Yi Xuan to react, but they have long been used to this reaction, and they just feel depressed for a while and feel better.Nothing compares to Mubai's fish head hot pot at night.Facing Mu Bai's question, the two of you talked to Mu Bai about science.They also felt that since Mu Bai had entered the sight of the dark culinary world, he would definitely encounter troubles in the future, and it would be good to let Mu Bai know more now.

But Mubai listened to a lot of what they said, the more he listened, the more Tuzki got his eyes on him.In fact, so many forces and so many slogans are mixed together. To put it bluntly, it is just such a forced idea that "food is the first thing for the people, and mastering the world's ingredients is equal to mastering the world".As a chef, Mu Bai also likes to read comics and novels about chefs.Every gourmet comic and novel has a dark cooking world, and the purpose of every dark cooking world is the same.So the dark food world or something, is it a parallel universe franchise store?I don’t know how much the franchise fee is →_→.

No matter how you think about it, it feels so unreliable.This kind of organization is just like the terrorist organization in Mu Bai's previous life. It will never be able to achieve their so-called big goals.This world doesn’t have as many worries as the previous one, so it’s good to meet Chuchutu (there’s no typo, it’s the one with this treasure head).Mu Bai thought silently.

... Putting aside the so-called dark cooking world, after Mu Bai returned to Mumu Restaurant, he began to study his hot pot with great concentration.

Although hot pot has become popular all over the country and even the world, the real hot pot still belongs to the origin of Bashu.For a real hot pot, not only the ingredients are better, but more importantly, the base soup is the key.The bottom ingredients of time-honored hot pot restaurants are all secret recipes, and the bottom ingredients of franchise stores are sealed and shipped directly. One can imagine the importance of the bottom soup.

The most traditional spicy hot pot is easy to get angry because of the relationship between peppers, so it is generally necessary to add Chinese herbal medicines that clear the fire in the base material, which can not only enhance the taste, but also maintain health.As for the clear soup pot, usually only nourishing Chinese herbal medicines are added, because the base ingredients of the clear soup, such as fish and mushrooms, are inherently clear.

It is not an exaggeration to say that there are tens of thousands of hotpot ingredients, but what Mu Bai made this time is simple fish head hotpot.So he only made a simple clear red mandarin duck pot, and the bottom soup on both sides is fish soup—that is, the soup made from the lake water brought from the volcanic lake.

Mu Bai first took the lightest lake water in the volcanic lake, then mixed fish bones with various mountain delicacies, specially made to remove fishy smell and enhance freshness, and a Chinese medicine bag with nourishing effect, and finally added a little clear spring Liquor - a kind of spirit with a clear taste gushing out of a natural wine spring, which is sealed together in a crock jar and sealed, and heated in a special container.Originally, the soup needs to be simmered in a crock pot for a long time on low heat until even the fish bones are softened.Now the container can not only simulate the simmering effect of a small fire, but also greatly shorten the time.

The bottom soup of red soup is the thickest layer of lake water.Mu Bai boiled the fish oil obtained from the fish head monster's body, put in specially selected dried red pepper, Chinese prickly ash, peanuts, and sesame seeds, boiled it into a chili oil that makes one's scalp tingle, and poured it into the soup base.The special base material is added with fire-clearing medicinal materials, various spices, and green peppercorns, and finally put the fish head, which is also simmered in a crock.

"This..." Yi Xuan was a little dumbfounded looking at Mu Bai's complicated process.Well, he was actually dumbfounded looking at the thick layer of peppercorns.

"You guys eat clear soup, the red soup is according to my taste." Mu Bai hummed a ditty, it's been a long time since he calmed down to eat hot pot, this time he must be sweating all over.

"...Of course I want to eat it!" Even if my tongue hurts to death!

"It's okay, I can eat spicy food quite well." Grandpa Musan said with a smile, "Is Xiaobai happy with this hunting?"

"Destroyed a fish head monster... I'm still far away." Mu Bai drooped his ears.

"It doesn't matter, just practice more." Grandpa Mu San smiled and rubbed Mu Bai's ears, "Your cooking skills can't be improved even if you are locked in the room, and you can get better by going out more. Greater improvement."

"Yes, Grandpa." Mu Bai nodded vigorously.I think he practiced with the door closed for so long in order to practice the speed of the knife, but there was no improvement.But this time I was too guilty. When hunting fish-headed monsters, I showed my ability far beyond usual, and the speed of cutting the knife has obviously increased to a level.And that feeling is still remembered even after returning, Mu Bai felt that when he was chopping vegetables just now, he seemed to be more handy.

"Let's go to a prettier place next time?" Yi Xuan leaned over and proposed.Xiaobai, who is always poor and bad, will get tired of looking at it, right?

"Listen to Mr. Axuan." Mu Bai didn't understand anything about hunting, so it was definitely Mr. Axuan who had the final say.

Yi Xuan nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.He is already thinking about asking Mubai to go there (fork off) for a date (fork off) hunting next time.

"I'm going to the Flower Festival in a few days, Xiaobai, let's go together. You are so good at making desserts, there are very fresh nectar there." Yi Di just came back from hunting ice cream bears, and brought them back for dessert for several people .He really likes sweets.

"That's good, I've heard that the Flower Festival is very beautiful." Mu Bai immediately agreed.

Yi Xuan's soul is out of his body... Listen to what he said... He hasn't said anything yet... Xiaobai, you are too much...

"Mr. Axuan, let's make honey barbecue!" Mu Bai clenched his fists, "I haven't eaten barbecue for a long time."

"Okay!" Yi Xuan stuffed the soul from his mouth, "I will definitely hunt the queen bee by then!"

"Go away, the queen bee is mine." Yi Di glared at Yi Xuan coquettishly, "Just like you, the queen bee scared away when she saw you."

"I won't go, I heard that there is something wrong with Dragon Triangle, I'm going to have a look." Yi Tian smiled, "Stop bickering, Xiaobai, the soup should be ready."

"Ah, yes." Mu Bai took out the earthen jar, and as soon as he lifted the lid, the strong fragrance already made people twitch their index fingers.

The place where Mubai cooks now is on the fifth floor of Mumu Hotel, which does not seem to exist from the outside.I don't know what kind of material this fifth layer is made of. Not only is it invisible from the outside, but even the sound and smell will be hidden.Otherwise, this strong fragrance will make many diners salivate.

At this time, the ingredients in the crock had reached the point of melting in the mouth.For example, the fungus in the clear soup only has a complete shape, which can be easily swallowed once it is contained in the mouth without chewing.

But this soup is just the first soup.Mu Bai first picked out the ingredients to be eaten, then filtered the soup several times with gauze, and then mixed the filtered soup with other soups that had been cooked, and finally reconfigured the base ingredients, and then made the final soup The soup is poured in.

At the beginning, if other ingredients are mixed with other ingredients in the soup base, the taste will become more and more strange, and even slightly bitter and astringent.Therefore, Mubai filters all the base materials, and the reconfigured base material has the effect of filtering taste, and the more it is boiled, the more it can reconcile the taste of other ingredients.However, this kind of base material is not good as a base material for boiling soup, because the more it is boiled, the less flavor it will have, and the soup taste will not come out at all without adding ingredients.

Mubai has already prepared all kinds of fish fillets, marinated fish meat and other most delicious parts of the fish head monster, and also served them with various meat and vegetables. In the end, he added hot pot noodles, hot pot dumplings, and hot pot vermicelli for fear that they would not be full. .Because the fish head is very large, only a part of the soup is left as the bottom material after the soup is boiled, and the rest is put in a large basin for them to eat first.With the fish head pad for the stomach (??), I don’t think I will eat much hot pot later.

It's just that the fifth floor can even cook fish-head monsters the size of a small building. Such a large space is not like the one above the fourth floor, which is unbelievable.

When eating hot pot, Yi Di only ate clear soup, and he was full of praise for the clear soup.Yi Xuan slapped his tongue after taking a mouthful of red soup, and then took a quick bite.According to him, he is not afraid of spicy food, but he is not used to the numb taste.However, the taste is uncomfortable on the tongue, but the more you eat, the more addictive you can't stop.

Seeing that Mu Bai ate such a big fish head, several people can quickly destroy all kinds of dishes.Fortunately, Grandpa Mu San had the foresight and had already ordered people to keep serving the dishes, otherwise Mu Bai would have to wait for several uncles to eat, even the current physical strength would be too much for him, right?

The point is that he doesn't want to serve food at all, he also wants to eat hot pot.

When the last bit of food entered his stomach, Mu Bai was so full that he didn't want to walk anymore.He lay sideways on the chair and regretted, "It's a pity that there is no tofu. If you don't eat tofu in the hot pot, you always feel that something is missing?"

"What is tofu?" Yi Xuan asked.

"Tofu..." Mu Bai blinked.Is there no tofu here or is that food not called tofu?You must know that tofu is a specialty of his motherland, although it eventually spread to the entire East Asian region.But on the outside, tofu is all transliterated, so you know the uniqueness of this food.

Although in Mu Bai's country, this food is very common.

"Tofu is my own name. I don't know what that kind of food is called, maybe there is no one? Next time I will make it for you." Mu Bai rubbed his stomach, "The main reason is that I have grown up so much that I haven't seen tofu being made yet. raw materials."

I really don't know why, but I didn't see soybeans.However, the appearance of the ingredients here is also very different from the previous life. He will always find ingredients similar to soybeans, and then he will make a tofu feast.

"Tofu..." Yi Xuan smacked his mouth, looking forward to unknown food... Oops, he felt hungry again.
