He had never even heard of the Dragon Whistle Apple before, let alone tasted it. The name alone sounded upscale.
After waiting for more than an hour, He Jing finally finished cooking the Garlic Seafood Udon and Blanching Spotted Prawn. When she was cooking the broccoli, she suddenly washed her hands and took off her apron. She said,
“Third brother, keep an eye on the fire for me. I need to go to the restroom.” Without waiting for his agreement, she left in a hurry.
He Zhou wore an unhappy expression but his gaze involuntarily fell on the two dishes that had been prepared. Then, he walked over like he was possessed.
He picked up the chopsticks and wanted to take a bite to see what it tasted like,but he suddenly stopped.
He thought, “What am I doing!”
After a full minute, he finally made up his mind. He snorted coldly in his heart and thought to himself, “Why should He Jing let me keep an eye on the fire for free? Consider it as payment!”
Therefore, he picked up a piece of each dish with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
And then.
The chopsticks fell to the ground.
He Zhou was completely immobilized.
Oh my god, what a delicacy this was. The rich garlic fragrance and the fresh seafood fragrance were like the waves of the sea that drowned him. The chewy and smooth texture of the noodles made his lips and teeth numb. A hint of spiciness and saltiness burst out from his taste buds, mixing with the original taste of udon noodles. It made him feel as if he was walking on the beach in Hawaii. When the sun was burning, a straw hat covered his head.
The Blanching Spotted Prawns were equally incredible. The crispness and sweetness of the prawns and the slight bitterness of the bitter gourd were perfectly balanced. The taste of returning to its original nature made people feel as if they were at the bottom of the sea and in the countryside. He was like the owner of the sea farm bathing in the sun. His forehead was sweating, and every drop of sweat carried the joy of a bountiful harvest with nets. If he had to be described in one word, that would be unparalleled.
Each of these two dishes was exceptionally special.
He Zhou had tasted a lot of things, and he would seize the opportunity to sample dishes from all kinds of places. When he was young, many food stall owners thought he was cute and gave him some to try when they had nothing to do. This was why he had an unusually sharp taste buds.
However, after so long, only He Jing’s dishes had such a rich taste.
Clearly, it was just a regular bowl of udon.
Clearly, it was just an ordinary Blanching Spotted Prawn.
Yet, she was able to make it so perfectly. She was terrifyingly strong!
He Zhou quickly checked the remaining ingredients in He Jing’s plastic bag and identified and noted them down one by one. He Jing had bought too many ingredients. There were more than 20 kinds of spices like fennel and aniseed alone, and the rest were even more dazzling.
No wonder she could make such delicious dishes. So this was the secret!
When he heard footsteps behind him, He Zhou immediately turned the plastic bag back and pretended that nothing had happened. He Jing walked up and asked, “Third brother, how’s the cooking of my broccoli?”
He Zhou couldn’t help but look away guiltily. He said coldly, “Don’t ask me. How would I know how you want to cook it?”
He Jing opened the lid and smiled. “Perfect.”
The whole green broccoli was cooked in the pot, and the color became brighter.
He Zhou remembered that she added a little salt and a little white vinegar when cooking. Was this the secret to maintaining color?
He Jing scooped up the broccoli and then made the Dragon Whistle Apple. She didn’t mind him watching from the side at all. Every step was very detailed, and she even explained the principle to him from time to time, as if the two of them were intimate chef partners.
He Zhou had always been meticulous and felt very unnatural about this, but he didn’t want to miss such a good opportunity, so he could only endure and listen. Fortunately, He Jing didn’t show off her skills and didn’t say too much nonsense.
Soon, she finished all four dishes she wanted to make. He Jing said, “Try it.”
He Zhou had already tasted it, but he still took a few bites with a cold face. Seeing that He Jing still wanted to stay and clean up the kitchen, He Zhou couldn’t hold it in anymore and said, “Alright, I’ll handle these. You can go..”
