Dishes that don’t shine are not good dishes

In the Darkness (Part 1)

Xie Yunfei couldn’t see anything in pitch darkness, but he didn’t show an overly flustered expression.

His sense of touch surpasses that of ordinary people, and his sense of hearing and smell reaches the limits of ordinary people. Even though he can’t see anything, he is still constantly communicating with the outside world, slowly constructing the surrounding scenes in his mind, and the most important things. , Xiaoyun chooses the type of ingredients for herself.

“Hmm… Did you use the recipe I gave you to temporarily modify it?”

Xie Yunfei, who was standing in the Wuheyoujing venue, stroked his chin, reasoning softly.

Wuheyoujing is a projection of the real world. In other words, Wuheyoujing can restore the things that exist in the real world, whether it is the surrounding kitchen table, or the ingredients and kitchen utensils on the kitchen table.

This undoubtedly made Xie Yunfei’s next actions a lot easier, otherwise, he would have to spend points to let the system simulate the environment in the venue.

“Licorice…Licorice…”

Among the many ingredients, the one Xie Yunfei is most unfamiliar with is licorice, which is not so much an ingredient as a herbal medicine. It’s a pity that although Xie Yunfei has begun to slowly get in touch with the production of medicinal food, he is not familiar with many traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions.

However, the method of making the prescription is nothing more than steaming, and among the ingredients Xiaoyun gave, red dates can be included in the prescription.

“Is this asking me to boil these two ingredients first?”

While groping to open the stove, Xie Yunfei poured clean water into the cooking pot, then dipped his finger into the clean water, and after confirming the content, added an appropriate amount of licorice and red dates.

The flame is burning.

Xie Yunfei turned on the flame of the stove very loudly. According to Chinese medicine, it is the so-called martial fire. He is making the initial attempt at this time, so it doesn’t need to be too delicate. Although he said so, the temporary super-tactile sense raised by the air of movement and stillness allows him to easily perceive the temperature of the flame, and A change in the soup that slowly begins to boil in the cooking pot.

After sniffing, Xie Yunfei turned off the stove, stretched out his hand again, dipped some soup with his index finger, put it in his mouth and tasted it.

The taste of the soup is not bad, the taste of red dates is very strong, and there is such a refreshing aftertaste in the faint fragrance.

“Let’s try this recipe first…”

As Xie Yunfei said this, he groped for dishes and a strainer, poured out the soup, and then brought chopsticks to sort out the red dates from the soup dregs one by one.

His movements were not fast, and could even be said to be a little slow.

But this is also normal. Although Xie Yunfei has simulated the surrounding scene in his mind, it is impossible for Xie Yunfei to completely get rid of the influence of blindness in just half an hour. He just kept correcting his movements so that the speed of cooking could be further increased while reducing the possibility of accidents.

Pour the flour on the kitchen table, then beat the egg yolks and whites into the flour, and finally some salt, sugar, and butter…

Xie Yunfei’s movements were very careful, and he was accurately measuring the amount of ingredients with every step.

The dessert he intends to make needs to go through three stages: frying, boiling, mixing, and drying.

Among them, because of the luminous recipe, the difficulty of frying and drying is not too big. The real trouble is actually cooking and mixing.

After taking out the rolling pin from the kitchen box and confirming the direction, Xie Yunfei’s shoulder joints, arms, wrists and fingers started to draw circles.

Flour, eggs, etc. were slowly fused together under the force of the rotation, and within a short time, they turned into a dough with the color of egg yolk.

Take the plastic wrap to cover the dough, put it aside and let it stand…

Taking advantage of the waiting time, Xie Yunfei took out the rest of the auxiliary materials, such as walnuts, white sesame seeds, and black sesame seeds, and put them in the food processor to crush them. Then, he took out the second portion of licorice and red dates for cooking from the kitchen utensils box, and after slightly adjusting the ratio of the two, he started cooking the prescription medicine again.

As the cooking process continued, Xie Yunfei’s footsteps and hand movements became faster and faster. He is gradually adapting to the current situation and overcoming it.

After half an hour, Xie Yunfei took out the dough, cut off a part, and then used a rolling pin to roll this small part of the dough into a thin slice with a thickness of about one millimeter.

After measuring the width and length of the dough with his fingers and palms, Xie Yunfei took the kitchen knife again and cut the dough into strips 5 cm long and 1 mm wide.

Heat the oil in the frying pan on high heat, and when you hear the sound of small bubbles floating in your ears, put in the long strips made of dough.

Bark – bark – bark –

In less than three seconds, Xie Yunfei took out the long strips of dough puffed by the hot oil and put them aside for later use.

During the whole process, Xie Yunfei didn’t even use his sense of touch and hearing much, just the body instinct formed after countless cooking exercises was enough to complete this step with ease.

And then – cooking.

Don’t get me wrong, you need to be admittedWhat is steamed is not the fried noodles that have not been cooled, but the soup that has been prepared before.

In normal steps, sugar should be added to cook in this step. After the sugar slowly melts into syrup, other ingredients should be added.

But Xie Yunfei didn’t intend to do this. Although the soup made from licorice and red dates is not as sweet as white sugar, it still has a special flavor.

When the soup is boiled again, add maltose and honey, and turn it into a viscous liquid, then pour in the cooled fried noodles and crushed ingredients.

Turn off the heat and stir.

Originally, this step should be the simplest because he could see the whole process, but at this time, Xie Yunfei could only rely on the slight changes felt in the pads of his fingers to judge whether the stirring was completed.

During the period, Xie Yunfei also turned on the stove again, and reheated some cooled syrup.

About ten minutes later, he took out the viscous contents from the frying pan, put them in the cuboid container he had prepared, compacted them, and let them cool down.

Because it doesn’t matter what you do, the last step of cutting is not necessary.

But even so, Xie Yunfei couldn’t help frowning when he heard the 71-point completion rate given by the system.

The first attempt undoubtedly failed.

But this is normal, I have already guessed it. Whether it is the boiling of the decoction or the subsequent stirring, there are no small problems.

and also……

Xie Yunfei turned his head and ‘looked’ at the last ingredient on the kitchen table that he didn’t use – wheat.

Among the many ingredients, the appearance of wheat made Xie Yunfei somewhat puzzled. If Xiaoyun wants to grind wheat herself to make flour, then the flour she prepared is meaningless, but if the wheat is used directly, which step should they be added to?

Although he was puzzled in his heart, Xie Yunfei didn’t waste too much time. After pondering for a while, he started to try again…
