Chapter 68: Irresistible Spicy Blood Stew
People with skills are always respected.
[She’s got skills, at least she’s not just putting on a show, she really looks like a chef!]
[Much better technique than what I’ve seen in small restaurants!]
[What are you doing, comparing our Little Sister Jiujiu to a chef in a small restaurant? You’re so blind!]
While chopping vegetables, the water in the pot had already boiled. The chili peppers submerged in the pot surged up with the boiling water. The numbing and spicy aroma, trapped under the lid for several minutes, wafted through the livestream terminal, reaching the nostrils of every viewer in front of the screen.
Jiang Qiuqiu added more seasonings, a little salt for flavor, and seafood-extracted oil to enrich the spicy base with a richer freshness.
Jiang Qiuqiu then added the tender blood tofu into the pot. “Blood tofu itself doesn’t have a special flavor, but its texture is unique, combining the smoothness with Sichuan flavors, spicy and fresh. Almost no one can resist it.”
“We’ll wait for three minutes, and then we can enjoy the delicious dish.”
As usual, before the pot boiled, Jiang Qiuqiu had already arranged the small bowls.
“Next, we’ll prepare the garnishes: garlic, dried chili peppers, and cilantro.”
Because she needed to prepare many bowls, Jiang Qiuqiu directly chopped a large bunch of garnishes.
The pot bubbled, and she quickly turned off the heat, using a long spoon to scoop the blood stew into the bowls. The blood tofu she made was very tender. After falling into the bowl, it bounced slightly.
This was just a very ordinary scene, but for some reason, someone couldn’t help but swallow saliva.
It seemed… very delicious.
It seemed… not like dark cuisine at all.
And it smelled a bit fragrant, that spiciness was so enticing!
But this wasn’t the final step yet. In each small bowl, she sprinkled the garnishes and then heated up a pot of hot oil. “The most layered taste of spicy blood stew depends on this final ladle of hot oil.”
The scorching oil directly attacked the dried chili peppers, extracting the most ‘authentic’ spicy flavor. After the cilantro and green onions were baptized in the hot oil, they sizzled and emitted a tempting aroma. Usually, after the cooking process, there would be a scanning and taste-testing session, but today, Jiang Qiuqiu added an additional food explanation session.
She lifted a small bowl with her bare hands, took out a white spoon, scooped up some blood stew, slowly lifted it to her mouth from the video, and tasted it.
Smooth and tender, before she even swallowed, it had melted in her throat. The spicy taste burst open instantly. It had been a long time since she had eaten something so stimulating, but after the stimulation, it was another kind of enjoyment.
It made people unable to resist taking another bite.
So, another spoonful of bouncing blood stew was ‘swaying’ in front of the camera, slowly drifting away.
[Don’t do this! streamer, don’t eat it, let us taste it too!]
[Is this done? It looks colorful, and the color matching doesn’t seem very nice, but for some reason… it looks so delicious!]
[Same, I want to eat!]
—
[The one above, what do you want to eat? Don’t even think about it! You all agreed not to vie for taste-testing spots!]
[Think about the four stars you just dropped, whoever eats becomes the little brother.]
[Delicious enough to do a headstand—]
Even though everyone was clamoring in the barrage, at first, there were indeed some who confidently asserted that they would never eat the spicy food made by the rubbish streamer to attract attention.
But, the fact was, out of 10 bowls of spicy blood stew and the nearly ten million level taste-testing spots of the 4-star streamer, they almost evaporated in an instant.
Eating this dish didn’t take too long. One minute later, the number of followers in Jiang Qiuqiu’s livestream room jumped from a million to ten million.
If it’s not tasty and doesn’t touch the heart, who would follow?
Jiang Qiuqiu turned to the camera with a smile and introduced herself to all the newcomers, “I’m Jiang Jiujiu, the streamer of the Federal Streaming Food Zone. The livestream time is every other night at eight o’clock sharp. If you like my livestream, you can follow me~ If you’re interested in gourmet food, you can log in to the Federal Streaming Network – Jiang Jiujiu’s Forum.”
“Today’s livestream ends here. Spiciness is a special taste. In the next livestream, I’ll continue to explore the combination of Gugu Beasts and spicy flavors with another dish—boiled beef slices.”
“See you next time.”
Jiang Qiuqiu ended the livestream.
But, a new trend began at this moment.
