Chapter 44: Show off your skills

Since today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are a lot of people shopping in the supermarket. Chu Yang wandered around the supermarket and unknowingly had more things on his hands.

"Handsome guy, would you like to take a look at the mooncakes? Our supermarket is having a promotion, buy one and get one free."

When I was about to pay, a tally clerk in the food area suddenly made a recommendation.

Chu Yang took a look. These mooncakes were packed in festive gift boxes and looked high-end.

He took a quick look with his fiery eyes and found that the box looked quite big, but it only contained a few months of cookies, which was not enough to fit between his teeth.

"no thank you."

Chu Yang naturally didn't want to be taken advantage of, so he refused and walked out.

"Lao Wang, which box of mooncakes do you think is best to give to your in-laws?"

When checking out, an aunt held two boxes of mooncakes and turned to ask her wife beside her.

The old man next to him took a few glances, pointed at one of the boxes and said, "Give me the box with Chang'e printed on it. The other box is too fancy and not solemn enough."

"Yeah, I think so. This box is quite nice. I'll let my son deliver it to me after dinner."

"okay."

The couple paid and left the supermarket hand in hand.

The casual conversation between the two gave Chu Yang a wake-up call.

The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Moon Festival, is one of the four traditional festivals in China along with the Spring Festival, Qingming Festival and Dragon Boat Festival.

Since ancient times, many myths and stories related to the Mid-Autumn Festival have been circulated among the people.

For example, Chang'e flies to the moon, Wu Gang cuts Gui, and the Jade Rabbit makes medicine...

Chu Yang originally had no feelings for mooncakes, but when he heard the name Chang'e, he couldn't help but think of the graceful and cold fairy.

"Tonight there are many people worshiping the moon, and I have to express myself a little, otherwise it won't make sense."

The spiritual stones Chu Yang earned before were all based on Chang'e's popularity, and Yutu had a good relationship with him, so he could get close to the master and servant.

After thinking about this, Chu Yang returned to the food area.

"Auntie, which kind of mooncake is the most expensive here?"

Chu Yang found the tallyman and asked directly.

The tallyman's eyes lit up, and he pointed to the most exquisite box of mooncakes and said, "Handsome, this is the best. There are six different flavors in it. The packaging in the box is very high-end. It is very honorable to give it to relatives and leaders."

"Buy one get one free too?"

"Yes, if you want this kind, you can choose whatever you want." The tallyman nodded.

Chu Yang looked around and simply selected two boxes of the same one.

After settling the bill, Chu Yang looked at the price on the receipt and found that this box of mooncakes actually cost 328 yuan, which was really expensive!

When he arrived at the villa, Chu Yang put a box of mooncakes into the Taobao warehouse, took out the ingredients bought by the God of Cookery, and then rang the doorbell.

“It’s so slow to buy something, when can we eat?”

After opening the door for him, Yuan Luyao complained dissatisfiedly.

"Hey, today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. I bought a box of mooncakes. If you are hungry, eat one first. It's hard to tell when the meal will be served."

Chu Yang didn't bother to talk nonsense to her. After throwing the mooncakes on the sofa, he went straight to the kitchen.

"Hey, who wants to eat your smelly mooncakes?"

Yuan Luyao said this, but her hands couldn't help opening the box. She was obviously really hungry.

Entering the kitchen, Chu Yang put on his apron and started to process the ingredients.

The main ingredients of these three dishes are all produced in heaven and are slightly different from those on earth.

Among them, the Yunhe Flying Fish looks like a bass, with a head and tail about a foot long. It has no scales and is silvery white in color. There is a pair of long fins behind its gills.

According to the details of the treasure, when this flying fish migrates back to lay eggs, it relies on its pair of fins to leap over the sky stream, which is similar to the way a carp leaps over a dragon gate.

The meat of this flying fish is fresh and tender, with very few fish bones in the body. It is very suitable for children and the elderly. Whether it is steamed or braised, it is very delicious.

There are also crystal shrimps produced in Yaochi. Their bodies are crystal clear and their internal tissues are visible to the naked eye. These shrimps survive by absorbing the spiritual energy in Yaochi and do not contain any impurities in their bodies. It is said that they can be eaten raw.

Of course, if you eat it raw, it won't be a problem for the God of Cookery. The way to eat it in his recipe is to steam it and dip it in a secret sauce.

The origin of this chicken is even more incredible. According to the God of Cookery, this guy is a silky chicken that is responsible for catching insects in the peach garden. It can be regarded as a low-level spiritual beast raised by the palace. Eating it is very helpful for spiritual practice.

The kitchen of Yuan Luyao's house is very spacious, and the kitchen utensils are naturally the best. After Chu Yang washed the ingredients, he started to use the knife to process them.

After learning the "primary cooking skills" from the God of Cookery, his hand with a knife has become more flexible. Although it is not as good as Master Bai An who has practiced for many years, it is no longer as stiff as before.

After cutting the flying fish from the spine to the abdomen, Chu Yang took out the porcelain bottle stored in the warehouse, poured the secret seasoning inside on the fish, marinated it, then added ginger slices, onions and garlic, put it on a plate and steamed it in a pot.

While steaming the fish, he was not idle and started making the secret braised chicken nuggets.

Among these three dishes, the most troublesome is this. You have to prepare garlic sprouts, green garlic, peppers, green onions and other condiments.

Then cut the silky chicken into small pieces, add minced garlic, minced ginger, black pepper and the secret sauce you bought, and stir evenly.

Make preparations, then pour cooking oil into the pot. After the oil temperature rises, fry the marinated chicken pieces until they turn color, then take them out and place them in a bowl to drain the oil.

Then, heat the base oil used for fried chicken, add the previously cut side dishes, stir-fry until fragrant, then add the chicken pieces and stir-fry. When the chicken pieces are mature, add a little sugar to enhance the flavor.

After taking it out of the pot and serving it on a plate, sprinkle some minced green onions and this secret braised chicken dish is complete.

Chu Yang couldn't help but swallowed as he smelled the aroma in the kitchen.

Just as I was about to grab a chopstick and eat a piece secretly, I heard a beep sound from the kitchen. It turned out that the set time for steaming fish was up.

Open the lid of the pot and take out the plate. The flying fish on it has been steamed until it is fragrant, smooth and tender. After being drizzled with the God of Cookery’s special soy sauce, the steamed flying fish is done.

At this time, Yuan Luyao suddenly opened the kitchen door and muttered to Chu Yang, "Are you feeling better soon? I'm so hungry that I have no energy left."

Chu Yang was busy putting the crystal shrimp on the plate and said without looking back: "Help me take the plate out. There is still one shrimp left and we can start dinner."

In the past, Yuan Luyao never entered the kitchen because she was afraid that the smell of oil smoke would get on her body.

However, the secret braised chicken nuggets were full of color, flavor and flavor, which could not help but seduce the glutton in her belly.

"It feels pretty good."

Yuan Luyao didn't care about the fumes anymore, swallowed her saliva in a hopeless manner, and stood on tiptoe to take out the plate of secret braised chicken nuggets.

During this free time, Chu Yang had already begun to steam the crystal shrimp. This little thing was completely free of impurities, and it didn't even need to remove the shrimp threads. It only took a few minutes for it to be completely cooked.

This Yaochi shrimp dish is the simplest to make, and the whole process doesn't even take ten minutes. Use a small bowl to fill the dipping sauce prepared by the God of Cookery, and you can eat it directly.
