Have you ever seen glowing food? That's why you draw a food-themed anime.

Was Xu Zhou's mother not bragging before?

Is Xu Zhou truly a culinary genius?

Does he really have that ability?

Some of them were still reluctant to believe it, but when they saw that it was only because Jiang Yonghua was removed from the "not recommended" list that it became a trending topic, they had a feeling of "I knew it".

Startled.

I thought Xu Zhou's shop was going to become popular because of his skills, but it turns out it became popular because of the criticism.

...

And the other side.

Xu Zhou went into the inner room and took out the thermos.

Then they used a large insulated container to hold the egg drop soup later.

Another insulated container was filled with fifty fried meat patties.

The insulated bucket works very well.

It stays almost warm when covered with a thick lid.

This is what Xu Zhou specially bought at the supermarket this morning after learning how to make this dish.

These meat patties were just taken out of the space in the small room inside.

All the meat patties were steaming hot, and you could even see the sizzling oil dripping down from the fifty fried patties.

"It's so warm."

Xu Zhou was very satisfied with the meal preparation function in the system training room.

Of the fifty meat patties, twenty-five were fried by Little Red Hair, and twenty-five were fried by myself.

As soon as it was taken out.

The aroma of the meat patty was impossible to hide, and the unique, slightly fishy smell of the mackerel filled the entire room in a very assertive way.

Jiang Yonghua could easily identify the ingredients inside by smelling the aroma.

Mackerel, onion, eggs, flour.

Although the meat patties were pan-fried and the fishy smell was not strong, you could still smell a faint fishy smell.

"Canned mackerel..."

"This choice is not very wise; canned meat is more fishy than fresh fish."

"If you use fresh fish paste, the cost will increase a bit, but the taste will definitely be better than canned fish."

Jiang Yonghua shook his head, his initial expectations shattered. He had thought she was truly a culinary genius, just as Mingzhu had said.

"The fishy smell is too strong."

"Unless he can choose the perfect sauce to neutralize the flavor, otherwise..."

Choosing a heavy sauce will turn it into a disaster.

think about it.

A piece of fish meat that smells fishy.

Add concentrated, heavily seasoned sauce.

With one bite, the fishy-smelling flesh was coated in a thick, concentrated sauce that filled my mouth.

Aside from the seasonings, all that's left is the smell of meat.

Just thinking about the mistakes that beginners are prone to make makes Jiang Yonghua feel disappointed.

Could my granddaughter have misjudged me?

Can't?

Xu Zhou naturally heard Jiang Yonghua's comments, but he didn't care at all.

He took out the prepared sauce and turned on the stove.

Then pick up a meat patty, put it in the pot, and drizzle it with meat gravy.

Once the lid of the sauce is opened...

The aroma of citrus vinegar wafted out.

only……

If you add it directly, the citrus and vinegar components in the sauce will make the whole meat patty sour.

But if you don't let go.

The meat patty, however, had a fishy smell and was not palatable.

But when the fishiest mackerel juice in the can is mixed with citrus vinegar, the two blend together like perfectly matched gears.

It fits perfectly, exuding a completely new and unique flavor.

With a whoosh.

The pale yellow, refreshing sauce was poured over the thick, still slightly fishy-smelling mackerel meat patties by Xu Zhou's sauce.

The unique and domineering flavor was finally unleashed, and the dish was ready in less than a minute.

Jiang Yonghua, who was over there, was shocked when he smelled the finished dish, which looked completely transformed.

"Your sauce..."

"How can this be!"

Just by drizzling on the sauce, the whole dish is elevated to an unprecedented level.

At this moment, Xu Zhou's control over flavor was finally fully demonstrated.

Chapter 44, "The 2.5 Points Shop," is on Jiang Yonghua's recommendation list?

Jiang Yonghua was almost impatient to pick up the meat pie.

Xu Zhou pointed to the egg drop soup.

"Make your own soup."

"..."

"Each person is only allowed one small bowl; more is not permitted."

At this moment, Jiang Yonghua had no interest in the egg drop soup at all; all he wanted to do was taste the meat patty drizzled with sauce and savor the flavor of the sauce that seemed to be a perfect match for the meat patty.

He waved his hand: "I'll try the meatloaf first, I'll skip the soup."

Soup in casual meals is usually complimentary and of low quality.

But the next second, his granddaughter Jiang Mingzhu went to get soup with great familiarity, her voice filled with excitement.

"Young boss, I'll drink my grandpa's soup for him!"

Can I have two servings?

Seeing Jiang Mingzhu's expectant look, Xu Zhou didn't object and nodded, "As long as your grandfather agrees, that's fine."

Jiang Mingzhu immediately turned her head: "Grandpa!"

"You drink it."

"Hehe! Little boss! My grandpa agreed, I want two servings!"

Jiang Mingzhu looked on with anticipation, swallowing countless mouthfuls of saliva even before the lid was lifted.

After Xu Zhou finished making the second batch of meat patties, she put them on the table and then happily grabbed a small bowl to get some soup.

He's already a very conscientious customer.

...

The insulated container was opened.

The piping hot egg drop soup was steaming, and the lid of the thermos was covered in water vapor.

The water vapor slowly dissipated like a mist.

Beneath the white steam was a bowl of pale yellow egg drop soup.

It looked like an ordinary bowl of soup, but Jiang Mingzhu, with her sharp nose, could smell the sweetness of the broth.

"This is egg drop soup made with broth!"

"This is not your ordinary boiled egg drop soup!"

Take a bite.

Although the eggs had been beaten into egg drop soup, the soup was so delicious that it gave her a jolt.

A warm, rounded sensation spread throughout her mouth, awakening every taste bud.

The egg and scallion strands glided across her tongue, the sweet and savory flavor shooting straight to the top of her head.

Even though there didn't seem to be any seafood in the soup, I could inexplicably taste the freshness and sweetness of seafood.

“Delicious!”

"The second bowl... Grandpa, what are you doing!"

Just as Jiang Mingzhu was about to have a second bowl, she saw that Grandpa Jiang had already placed it on her table.

He carefully and attentively cut a piece of hamburger patty, mixed it with a mouthful of rice, and put it in his mouth.

The meat patties were very soft and had some light yellow sauce on them.

The sauce has a hint of citrus sweet and sour flavor, which perfectly masks the slight fishy smell of the fish.

Take one bite.

The rich meaty flavor was just like that of a thick meat patty.

It tastes even better than meat patties made with real fresh meat.

With a bite of meat wrapped in fluffy rice, Grandpa Jiang let out a long sigh of relief as he swallowed it.

The taste, which exceeded his expectations, made him feel an electric shock of excitement.

"good to eat!"

"This sauce is practically designed for this meatloaf, and this egg drop soup..."

Grandpa Jiang took a small sip and sighed deeply, "The quality of a soup often depends on the quality of the broth. This egg drop soup was actually made with broth!"

Although it was just a simple meal, it was so delicious that it brought me a sense of happiness.

The delicious taste goes straight to the brain, invigorating the soul.

Grandpa, the others taste even better!

"The reason this simple meal is so bad is because the ingredients aren't good enough, which limits the owner's culinary skills!"

Jiang Mingzhu said with a smug look, "Grandpa, you should try the other dishes the young boss makes."

"That's amazing." Jiang Yonghua exclaimed from the bottom of his heart, "I can't believe you were able to make such a sauce all by yourself."

Just this sauce alone is enough to show how terrifying the chef's skills are.

Substandard materials will always have flaws when presented.

But this young man managed to turn something rotten into something magical using only one seasoning.

The citrus-flavored sauce is quite appetizing, while the thick mackerel burger patty is truly satisfying.

The richness of the meat gravy is neutralized by the citrus, resulting in a refreshing flavor that makes you want to keep eating even after finishing a whole thick piece of meat.

"Forget it today."

Jiang Yonghua sighed: "I have something to take care of later."

"Oh."

Jiang Mingzhu pleaded, "Grandpa, could you please finish ordering before you leave? I can eat two portions by myself!"
