2464 Tempting and delicious (1)
Tang Zhen didn’t pay attention to the others. Instead, he walked to the side of the lit fire and placed the river fish that had been cut and washed on the stone.
The small knife cut across the fish’s body, and pieces of fish meat were shaved off. Soon, only a spikless fish head and bones were left.
The whole process was smooth and natural, as if he had practiced it countless times. It was like this when he killed fish, and it was the same when he killed people.
Not long after, the fish meat and bones were separated and placed on the large grass.
Tang Zhen put the fish bones and tender water grass into the pot, along with a few plants picked by the roadside, and added a few pieces of wood to the fire.
The flame grew stronger and stronger, licking the bottom of the pot. A trace of steam floated out of the pot.
A unique fragrance wafted through the air. Not only did it snap Buttface out of his deep thoughts, it also attracted the attention of a group of travelers not far away.
The reason for this was because the taste was too strange and delicious, making it impossible to ignore.
They kept turning their eyes to the pot on the fire, trying to figure out what was cooking inside and why it was so delicious.
This was mainly because the food was indeed delicious. Moreover, everyone had traveled a long distance and had a simple life. When they suddenly smelled this smell, it was natural that the feeling was even stronger.
Er Gou finally came back to his senses. He looked at the busy Tang Zhen and immediately became terrified.
“I’m sorry, my Lord. I just slipped away.”
Er Gou moved in front of Tang Zhen and tried to explain, only to see Tang Zhen wave his hand.
He was telling ergou not to mind this matter.
“My Lord, why don’t I do it? I’m good at cooking, Yingying.”
Tang Zhen stopped and turned to look at er Gou. He said in an indifferent tone,”Are you sure you can do what I want to do?”
“This bi an …”
Smelling the fragrance from the pot and looking at the fish paste that had just been mashed on the stone, ergou swallowed back the words he wanted to say.
He knew his own limits and understood that he really couldn’t do it.
go to the side and think about what I’ve taught you. You might be able to use it soon.
Buttface could only nod his head in agreement. He ran to the pot to watch the fire, but his heart was full of surprise.
He was really curious. How did Tang Zhen cook it? he could actually cook such a delicious soup?
It smelled so good. If he could have a bite, wouldn’t he die of happiness?
Tang Zhen poured the starch-like thing from his pocket into the basin, then poured the mashed fish into it and mixed it with water.
Tang Zhen had mixed some crushed plants into the mix. The red and green colors were very beautiful.
He turned around and looked at the soup in the pot. It was already boiling, and the White soup looked like milk.
Tang Zhen broke two wooden sticks and used them as chopsticks to fish out the fish bones. He gently shook off the fish meat on them.
Buttface found it strange. They used wood chips and wooden forks to eat, and he had never seen anyone use chopsticks.
Looking at the two tree branches in Tang Zhen’s hands, er Gou felt that it was extremely wonderful. He tried to break the two tree branches, only to find that he was unable to use them.
Buttface thought that this was the way of an expert. He secretly made up his mind to learn how to use a wooden stick.
This way, not only would he appear powerful, but he would also be able to close the distance between him and Tang Zhen. It was really worth working hard.
“The taste is not bad.”
After throwing the fish bones to the side, Tang Zhen used his chopsticks to pick up the dough and casually threw it into the boiling hot soup.
The soup rippled, and traces of oil flashed, the fragrance becoming stronger.
When the dough came into contact with the hot soup, it immediately became translucent. As the boiling time increased, it became more and more transparent.
It looked like a transparent jelly or a lychee that had just been peeled. It was very beautiful just by looking at its appearance.
He pinched it with his chopsticks and found that it was very elastic.
Buttface watched from the side, his eyes a little dazed. He had never seen such a cooking scene before.
Could it be that His Excellency was a chef, or was he a chef in the past? otherwise, how could he cook such a delicious dish?
“Alright, you can eat now!”
Tang Zhen stopped and said to er Gou.
“Okay, I’ll go get the bowl immediately.”
He turned around and ran to the horned beast. He quickly took out two wooden bowls, then washed them with water and grass.
After Tang Zhen filled up the bowl with soup, ergou didn’t care about the heat and immediately gulped down a mouthful of water.
“It smells so good, Yingluo.”
Feeling the delicious taste that filled his mouth, ergou let out a dream-like sigh. Compared to the soup that Tang Zhen had made, what he had drunk in the past was swill.
When he tasted the transparent meatball again, his whole body trembled again. Then, he started chewing with all his might like a hamster.
He chewed so fast that one would worry that he would bite off his tongue.
“It’s delicious, it’s too delicious, Yingying!”
As he ate, he kept praising, as if he only knew this one sentence.
Seeing the way er Gou ate, Tang Zhen smiled and took a bite.
Tang Zhen’s understanding of various plants had already reached the peak. Even though he was in a different plane, he was not affected in the slightest.
Therefore, one only needed to taste it to make a delicious soup, and it was a taste that many people had never tried before.
This was still due to the limited conditions. Otherwise, the food that Tang Zhen cooked would definitely be even more precious than natural treasures.
While the two were eating, an old man walked out of the group of travelers.
He had a smile on his face, giving off a kind and harmless feeling, making it difficult to raise any hostility.
“My two friends, what are you eating? why is it so delicious?”
He cupped his hands together and bowed to Tang Zhen and the other man. However, his gaze landed on the pot and was filled with an intent to investigate.
Buttface glanced at the other party vigilantly and subconsciously moved closer to the iron pot, as if he was afraid that the other party would snatch the soup pot away.
“Who are you and why are you asking this?”
In this world, every profession had its own secret impartation, and people consciously guarded it, never letting others know easily.
From er Gou’s point of view, Tang Zhen’s cooking method was a secret. He definitely couldn’t let others know about it.
The old man was a little embarrassed. He could tell that er Gou was just a follower, so he turned his gaze to Tang Zhen.
it’s just some ordinary food, and there’s not much. It’s only enough for the two of us.
Tang Zhen said in a faint tone. He naturally saw through the other party’s intention. It was none other than wanting to know the cooking method or to ask for a bowl to try.
To put it bluntly, they wanted to take advantage of Tang Zhen. If they could analyze the materials used by Tang Zhen and peek at the production process, they could try to replicate it.
Just from the aroma and taste of the food, he knew that if he were to sell it, he would definitely make a lot of money.
It was not unreasonable for ergou to be vigilant.
The old man opened his mouth after hearing Tang Zhen’s words. In the end, he only laughed softly.
“The two of you are too vigilant. In that case, I won’t talk nonsense. Do you sell the cooking method of your food?
If you’re willing to sell it, I’ll definitely give you a satisfactory price!”
The old man seemed to be determined to win as he continued to speak to Tang Zhen,”This kind of thing can only satisfy your own desire for food in your hands, but if you sell it, not only can you earn a sum of money, but you can also let more people taste this delicious food.
Once you do this, it’s definitely beneficial to others and yourself, so why not?”
The old man tried to persuade him, but he chose the wrong target and used the wrong method.
As a creator, what could Tang Zhen not get?
However, if the other party had something that he wanted, Tang Zhen would not mind making a deal. After all, the formula that the old man desired was something that he had casually prepared.
