Chapter 56: The Ultimate Fusion of Color and Flavor
In the scene, the young girl’s hands were moving gracefully.
Mo Si thought, this scene is beautiful, but it’s also monotonous. Watching it for too long might become boring.
As for the audience, Jiang Qiuqiu had no idea.
In her eyes, there was only the dish in the pot.
Braised bamboo shoots were a simple yet remarkable delicacy.
The jade-like bamboo shoots sizzled in hot oil, almost unable to conceal the flavor of the delicacy. When making this dish, the key was the cooking technique: stir-fry over high heat, add simple seasoning, and simmer for a while. It was a rare delicacy.
Jiang Qiuqiu quickly reduced the heat, added sauce, covered it, and then explained, “Simmering for a while can maximize the freshness of the bamboo shoots. It only takes about three minutes to thicken the sauce. During this time, let’s arrange the plates.”
Then everyone was surprised to find out that there was rice today!!
[Wow! What treatment is this? Qiuqiu didn’t mention this earlier!]
[Rice… With a QQ bounce, I’ve been wanting to eat it for a long time. I was late to the braised gugu session once! I didn’t expect it to make a silent comeback!]
“It seems like everyone really likes rice.”
[Yeah, I don’t know why, but before trying it, I thought such a simple dish must not be good, but after eating it—]
Delicious.
They don’t know what’s so delicious, but when it’s time to eat, everyone wants to have some rice with it.
But there were also different opinions.
[It’s okay… I feel like you can just eat it directly. The bland rice without sauce is not necessarily indispensable.]
The voices of the two factions were different, and they were about to start a fight in the barrage.
Jiang Qiuqiu: This is going too far. They’re arguing over this. If I ever have to make sweet and savory tofu pudding in the future, they might end up fighting through the screen.
With a helpless smile, she set the rice, and announced some good news, “By the way, tomorrow morning at eight o’clock, I’ll be doing a live stream on the topic of staple foods. If anyone is interested, you can come and watch on time.”
[Staple food session?]
[If I remember correctly, Qiuqiu only mentioned rice as a staple food, right? Is she going to host a live stream specifically to teach us how to make rice?]
[Why suddenly host a session on this?]
“Well, it’s not just rice. There’s also steamed bread. The reason for focusing on staple foods is because, after tomorrow’s session, there will be another one.”
Eating meat alone, although delicious, always felt like something was missing after a while. But if you add staple foods, the feeling is different.
Eating meat in big bites, eating rice/steamed bread in big bites, the combination of starch and energy is incomparable and makes people’s appetites irresistible.
“In the next session, we might need some staple foods to go with it.”
[!]
Someone heard steamed bread and instinctively started secreting fluids.
[!!!]
[It always feels like a big meal—]
With a new dish, everyone’s attention shifted.
However, in Jiang Qiuqiu’s livestream room, there were mostly fickle people. Before the hype on the new dish lasted for three minutes, everyone’s attention shifted again when Jiang Qiuqiu lifted the lid of the pot.
After spending a long time in this livestream room, everyone had developed a certain resistance to the aroma.
However—
Every dish still managed to bring new joy to people.
[Gulu Gulu Gulu! Is that the aroma of the food?]
[This, this]
[I am a superficial descendant of carnivores, why am I drooling over a bunch of vegetables and their juices, I’m going to spoil myself!]
Jiang Qiuqiu laughed twice, “Alright, let’s start plating.”
The large plates and rice were already set, the aroma of the braised bamboo shoots in the pot was enticing, and the jade-white bamboo shoots took on a sauce color. Stirring with a big spoon, she scooped up a spoonful of bamboo shoots and poured it over the rice—
A slight heat rose, and color and flavor reached their peak at this moment.
