Chapter 15

“Before starting the braising process, let’s blanch the meat pieces.”

After the meat had circled around in the pot for a while, a lot of blood foam appeared in the water. Jiang Qiuqiu stirred it slightly with a spatula. “Wait until the foam clears, then we’ll take out the meat and set it aside.”

At this point, the pork belly already had a hint of meaty aroma.

The descriptions were pale, and the faint meat fragrance was transmitted through the low-quality sensor to the newcomers’ terminals, magically causing a sudden increase in barrage.

These were all people who had climbed up to Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream to verify after seeing detective Zhuo’s post yesterday, to see if this girl was really the princess lifted up by the military or a superb culinary master.

At first, they just felt the voice was indeed pleasant, and the cooking seemed to have some order, but they remained skeptical.

Until the aroma of gugu meat wafted over—

This wave of people erupted in excitement.

[It smells really good!]

[I feel it’s different from other streamers!]

[I thought gugu meat couldn’t be eaten, but the way the streamer handled it is amazing!]

[What are the next steps for braising? Can we eat it now?]

Just as Jiang Qiuqiu was about to drain the water from the pork belly and handle the spices, she looked up and saw this pile of comments. She made an embarrassed expression on her face. “Does it have a smell after blanching?” She lowered her head and sniffed, indeed, there was a faint meaty aroma.

She could only sigh, “Everyone’s sense of smell is really good.”

“Actually, gugu meat is very delicious. Whether it’s made into meat patties, braised, stewed, or steamed, each has its own unique flavor.”

“The braising process may be a bit long. We’ve just started now. Everyone can wait patiently for a while. Today, I’ve made a bit more, so there will be more tasting spots available.”

After saying that, she heated the oil in the wok, and the spatula had already made two circles around the edge of the pan, evenly spreading the oil on the bottom.

The fans in the barrage were directly stunned.

[What, is this fragrance only the beginning?]

[This dish hasn’t even started yet!?]

[It smells so good just at the beginning?]

[Is the streamer bluffing…]

At first, Terry was happy to see everyone shocked and unexposed, but when he saw someone questioning Jiang Qiuqiu, he quickly put on his own account to start refuting.

[Terry The Wolf: Jiujiu never tells lies. You’re just watching the livestream for the first time. This slight fragrance is nothing at all.]

[Terry The Wolf: Moreover, just talking about the fragrance is too naive! Wait until you grab a tasting spot, then you’ll know what deliciousness is!]

His appearance as the spokesperson for the livestream room made Jiang Qiuqiu smile.

“Thank you for your support, Terry The Wolf. I find that everyone here is very good at talking, and every time I read the tasting reviews, it makes me very happy.”

[Terry The Wolf: Of course, I’m Jiujiu’s most loyal fan, so can I get a backdoor entry when grabbing a spot today?]

“The spots are controlled backstage, and I can’t change the parameters.”

[Terry The Wolf: Sigh.]

“Alright, while we’re talking, our ingredients have already fried up their aroma. Now, we’ll add the drained pork belly into the pot—”

The meat and ginger and garlic clashed in the oil pan, and soon, a stronger meaty aroma rushed out, domineeringly occupying the noses of the interstellar fans!

They believed it. The meaty fragrance just now was indeed rare!

[So fragrant!]

[Looks so delicious!]

Before a few more words could be said, they saw Jiang Qiuqiu lifting her hand, and bowl after bowl of condiments were poured into the pot.

While pouring, she introduced, “First, add some wine to remove the fishy smell. During the frying process, we can add some honey from the bees sting. Those who like sweetness can add more, and those who don’t can add less. Finally, we can add some black fungus. This way, during the braising process, the meat will take on a beautiful reddish-brown color.”
