stove king not working

From He Chen's point of view, the shadow puppetry does have some culinary talent, at least it can cook the dishes well, but no matter what condiments he adds in the middle of cooking, the final product will definitely be sweet , which also puzzled He Chen.

"Maybe it's because his body is made of maltose?" Feng Suisui, who came to taste it, slowly spat out the braised pork in his mouth. This sweet braised pork tasted completely different from the sweet and sour pork ribs, not good at all. eat.

The shadow puppet scratched his head, stretched out his chopsticks, picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth. After chewing it twice, he asked strangely, "Isn't it delicious?"

"Is it delicious?" Feng Suisui was shocked, "What kind of life did you live in the past?" You can even swallow this kind of dark food without changing your face, and dare to boast that it is delicious.

He Chen wiped the pot and came over to talk: "You don't regret it, bro, he mainly eats paper."

The shadow puppet swallowed another piece of meat and nodded: "Shengxuan is the best, but I haven't eaten it for a long time."

"Eat this." He Chen silently pushed the plate of dark dishes to the puppet's hand, signaling that he could eat all of this dish.The shadow puppet was very happy and bluntly raised his chopsticks and put it into the dark braised pork, smiling contentedly while eating.

"Who is that sugar blower's grandfather?" He Chen asked, "Will he come back?"

He Chen recalled the long line of children lining up at the street that day. Almost every child in Huaicheng had a candy figurine in their hands, and even four or five if they were patient. If there were shadow puppets hidden in these sugar figurines, then Wouldn't it be a while before Huaicheng would be captured by the dummy created by the sugar man?Thinking of this, his expression became very unfriendly.

The shadow puppet shook his head, his eyes were filled with melancholy: "Grandpa is a good man...he brought me out of the village."

"Otherwise, I will be tied up in a shadow puppet for the rest of my life," the shadow puppet shuddered at the thought of this possible outcome, "The outside world is so interesting, I don't want to shrink inside the shadow puppet."

This shadow puppet refers to the props of shadow puppetry. He Chen has only seen it in movies, and it is rare to find it in life.

"So do you have your own name?" Feng Suisui also knew what it was like to be trapped, and he felt a little sympathy for this little monster in his heart, and felt that it would be cruel to call him by the name of something he was afraid of. outside."

The shadow puppet blinked and shook his head: "My fellow clansmen who lived on our mountain were all sealed in the shadow puppet before I transformed into a form. It was the kind old grandfather who brought me out, so no one has given me a gift yet." I take names."

"In that case, let me come up with a name for you!" Feng Suisui's eyes lit up, eager to try, "Xiaotangtang? Sweet honey?"

He Chen raised his forehead: "Xiao Sui, do you have any special hobbies in naming after ABB?"

"In that case, let's call you Api." Tang Wenyu yawned, ignored Feng Suisui's many suggestions, and simply gave his answer without giving Feng Suisui a chance to protest.

He Chen thought for a while, the word "Api" is simple and easy to remember, and the key point is that it has something to do with him himself, so it is a perfect name.So he also nodded and agreed to Tang Wenyu's proposal: "Then it's settled, and you will be called Api from now on."

The shadow puppet was also very happy that he had a new name, he nodded in agreement and said, "Okay, my name is Api."

After Api lived in the family restaurant for three days, Pei Xuan finally came back with the handling advice given by the Shemale Relationship Management Bureau.Since he himself did not make a big mistake, the bureau did not give any substantive punishment, but asked him to apologize to He Chen and Si Buhui whose reputation had been damaged, and obtain their understanding.After Api learned about it, he quickly apologized to the two.

"So what are you going to do next?" Api declared his freedom, Feng Suisui was curious, "Do you have a plan?"

Api blinked blankly: "What plan? My plan is to get out of the village, and this old man has helped me realize it."

As a simple-minded little monster, Api's plan was to get out of the place where he was easily imprisoned, but he never thought about where he could go after he got out.He scratched his head: "how about I live here for a while?"

Adhering to the attitude that taking in one monster is taking in, and taking in two monsters is also taking in, He Chen agreed.

Fearing that Api's serving dishes would make the diners poor, He Chen didn't dare to let him go to the front hall to serve dishes again, so he had to stay in the back kitchen and learn how to cook with him. Cut vegetables or something.

However, He Chen could tell that he occasionally saw Api looking out with unconcealable curiosity and longing in his eyes.Those eyes are completely different from Feng Suisui's. Feng Suisui's curiosity is purely to watch, but Api has the ambition to take risks.

Therefore, the family restaurant can keep Feng Suisui, but it can't keep Api.Sooner or later he will leave.

This morning, after He Chen woke up, he went downstairs to the back kitchen to prepare breakfast for everyone as usual. When he opened the curtain, he saw steam rising from the stove, and Api stood by the stove, his eyes shining brightly of.

"Why did you wake up so early?" He Chen yawned and walked to Api's side, looking at the pot curiously, "What are you cooking?"

Api waved at He Chen, and said to him mysteriously: "I want to eat candied haws."

"Are you using a pot to make candied haws?" He Chen was a little surprised when he heard Api's words, and immediately asked a funny question.

Api nodded, with a somewhat embarrassed expression: "Grandpa used to cook sugar. After he brought me out, he originally wanted to pass on the craft of the sugar blower to me, but I only learned how to cook sugar after a long time." ..."

Seeing the other person's eyes, He Chen rolled up his sleeves and walked to the edge of the stove: "Let me do it, you can't do it if you endure it like this." He thought for a while, and then shouted upstairs: "No regrets, Will you take down that little black bag in the utility room?"

What the sugar blowers use is maltose, so the raw material of Api is only maltose.But what is used to make candied haws is not maltose, but rock sugar, so what Api waits by the stove can only be nothing.

Si Buhui came downstairs, and saw Api clinging to his wife every step of the way, his eyes darkened, his steps quickened a bit, and he walked between the two of them, separated Api and looked at He Chen's sight.

"Miss, the bag you want." Si Buhui handed the small black bag to He Chen, seeming to block Api unintentionally.

He Chen didn't know anything about the turbulent dark tide here, he took the bag Si Buhui handed him, thanked him, opened the bag, and took out a small jar containing rock sugar and another small bag of unknown transparent raw material.

Seeing that Api opened his mouth to speak, Si Buhui squinted his eyes, and said to He Chen ahead of Api: "Lady, what is this?"

"This?" He Chen shook the bag of transparent raw materials in his hand, "This is called glass brittle, and it's specially added to the candied haws to make the candied haws more brittle." He Chen said with a flash of excitement in his eyes : "I found this by chance when I was shopping last year. After I bought it, I put it in the utility room and never had a chance to use it. Today is my opportunity."

Because he eats it himself, he doesn't plan to sell it, so when He Chen prepared the hawthorns, he didn't put them on bamboo sticks, but just cleaned them and put them neatly on a plate and kept them aside.Then he started to make rock sugar shells.

He Chen poured water and ignited the fire, added rock sugar and some glass crisps to the water, stirred the sugar water clockwise with chopsticks while boiling the soup, the water vapor slowly evaporated up, and the sweetness of the sugar lingered in the air, making people feel Feel comfortable.

Slowly, He Chen felt that the chopsticks in his hand were being stirred by some resistance, and the color in the pot also changed from transparent to burnt yellow.He pulled out his chopsticks, turned the fire to a low heat, and kept the syrup in the pot from solidifying.

Then, He Chen took the plate full of hawthorns, put the hawthorns one by one into the pot with chopsticks, and let it be evenly submerged in the syrup. Against the backdrop of red, it looks very beautiful.

He Chen patiently coated a whole plate of hawthorns with sugar coating. The hawthorns in rock sugar were piled up on the plate, specially arranged in the shape of a gourd.He Chen turned off the fire, laughed and joked, "Here, this is candied haws."

Api couldn't care about anything else, his eyeballs almost fell into the plate.Seeing that He Chen handed the plate to him, he raised his chopsticks and poked one into his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it, then gave He Chen a thumbs up: "Delicious!"

He thought for a while, then pushed the plate towards He Chen and Si Buhui: "You guys eat too." Very generous.

Although candied haws are simple, He Chen seldom cooks them. He also wonders if he hasn't made this kind of food for so long, whether his craftsmanship has deteriorated.So he took a chopstick, poked a candied haws and wanted to stuff it into his mouth.

"Stop!" Just as He Chen opened his mouth, Api hurriedly stopped him.

He Chen moved the chopsticks away a little, and looked at Api with puzzled eyes - obviously he was the one who invited him to eat just now.

Api smiled embarrassedly, took out a can of liquid syrup from somewhere, and sprinkled a little on the rock sugar hawthorn in He Chen's hand: "Add some of this, this sugar is super delicious."

He Chen knew that the monster was not bad, so he nodded reassuringly, and let him sprinkle syrup on his rock sugar hawthorn.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Api watched eagerly as He Chen ate the rock sugar hawthorn with syrup, and asked impatiently.

That bit of syrup is sweeter than normal rock sugar, but it's not the kind of sweetness that makes people feel sick. He Chen felt the freshness, smacked his lips and nodded, "It's quite sweet."

The expression on Api's face became more vivid, and he was about to happily put away the jar, when suddenly another chopstick poking rock sugar hawthorn across his eyes.He looked in the direction where the chopsticks came from, and saw Si Buhui holding a chopstick in his hand and said expressionlessly, "I want it too."
