Genshin Impact: Traveler in a Foreign Land

The original chef of the inn was named Yan Xiao, a burly male chef with an eccentric temperament.

At this moment, when he saw Xiangling and Bai Di, he asked politely

"Xiang Ling, the young chef of Wan Ming Tang, what’s wrong? The food I cooked doesn’t taste right?"

"What? Xiang Ling didn't know why:"We haven't eaten yet. I came here to cook some dishes for my friends. Of course, you should cook the other dishes ordered at the inn!""

"this……"Yan Xiao was naturally a little unhappy.

How can you let your customers cook for themselves in your workplace? Generally, this kind of behavior is collectively referred to as ruining the place!

Yan Xiao said thoughtfully:"Why don't you go up and wait? No matter how many dishes there are, I can handle them all.""

"But……"Xiangling reluctantly explained:"Your boss has agreed."

"If it's the boss?"Yan Xiao's attitude suddenly changed.

"There's nothing you can do about it. Feel free to use the kitchen, but my cooking skills are quite good."

"To be honest, I was a gangster in the early years. Later, I robbed my boss and was beaten up and imprisoned for some time."

"When I was released, my boss asked me to be a cook, so I had no choice but to agree. But now... I feel that being a cook is my true self, so I have naturally studied this cooking skill carefully."

"Others say that Xiang Ling, the boss of Wan Ming Tang, is good at cooking. It's a pleasure to meet you today. How about we compare notes?"

"OK!"Xiang Ling readily agreed.

The two of them were studying cooking, and Bai Di looked at the many ingredients in the kitchen and had the intention of putting them all in the package with a wave of his hand.

"Bai Di, what ingredients should be used for the shrimp paste tofu you mentioned?"Xiang Ling turned around and asked

"Shrimp paste, tofu! Bai Di said

"Why? Is that so?……"Xiangling was confused. It was just shrimp paste and tofu, but it was really shrimp paste and tofu.

It's the same as scrambled eggs with tomatoes, only tomatoes and eggs……

"That……"Xiangling tried her best and asked in more professional terms:"Is there anything special? Is it that you put shrimp paste on the tofu?"

"How can that be done! Bai Di said hurriedly

"They have to be cooked together. Anyway, for a qualified shrimp paste tofu, the tofu must be bubbling!"

"What kind of food is that?" Yan Xiao burst into laughter as soon as he heard this

"I'm afraid this traveler doesn't know how to cook. He just described it like this. How could anyone understand it?"

Bai Di is not surprised at all. Without Xiang Ling, it would be difficult for anyone to understand such a simple description.

"I understand! Bai Di described it very well!"Xiang Ling seemed to have a sudden enlightenment.

"Dilute the shrimp paste with pepper water, then stir-fry it with the blanched tofu. The shrimp paste wraps the tofu and heats it to a certain level. The shrimp paste is fermented and will bubble easily. Add some condiments.……"

"Such a simple and practical method, but I don’t know how effective it is. Yan Xiao, please help us get some shrimp paste."

"This...someone really understands this. Yan Xiao suddenly felt his face burning, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that bubbles were indeed what they were.

Without further ado, he immediately helped to find shrimp paste. Immediately after, Xiangling started to light a fire and threw the rice dumplings on the ground. A puff of fire came out of the rice cooker, lighting the firewood under the stove, and she began to work

"that is it! Bai Di nodded with satisfaction.

As expected of Xiang Ling, he knows everything.

While lighting the fire, Xiang Ling also asked:"Bai Di, where did you learn this kind of cuisine? It feels really interesting. I have never done it before." Thought of it"

"Inspired by chance."Bai Di explained casually.

"Ah...what a pity. I still want to go to a place with this cuisine to learn it.……"Xiangling said sadly.

In about ten minutes, a plate of shrimp paste tofu is ready. When it is in the pot, you can see the bubbles in the pot, like crab eyes.

In Bai Di's eyes, this is the most authentic shrimp paste tofu.

During this time, Yan Xiao also made a few stir-fry dishes.

The tofu comes out of the pot on two large plates. As a cook, I naturally want to taste it first.

Xiangling picked up a piece of tofu, put it in her mouth, chewed it slowly, and after eating the whole thing, she clasped her hands and sighed.

"smell good!"

"Really?"Yan Xiao also came over, picked up the spoon and tasted a piece by himself.

After a moment, his eyes widened with a look of disbelief on his face.

"This... shrimp paste has a rich flavor, and the tofu doesn't have any fishy smell at all, it's extremely salty and fresh!"

"Xiangling, is this your first time cooking this kind of dish? Although I don’t know where this cuisine comes from, I feel that if it is sold in Liyue, it will be very popular!"

"Yes, yes!"Xiang Ling excitedly picked up a pair of hot tofu with chopsticks and handed it to Bai Di's mouth.

"Try it quickly to see if it's what you said."

In a sense, tofu doing this is as strange as stinky tofu. It smells worse than it tastes.

But unlike stinky tofu, shrimp paste tofu does not smell too smelly, just a little bit It's strange.

Bai Di opened his mouth slightly,"Good guy, it really burns your mouth. Isn't the cook's mouth afraid of being burned?"

"Is it hot? Xiang Ling smiled and put it to her mouth:"Let me blow it for you!""

As she said that, she blew lightly. The bubbles on the tofu crackled one by one, but there were more bubbles. She couldn't blow any more. Without these bubbles, the taste would be compromised.

Bai Di opened his mouth and Xiangling fed it.

Hiss!

The bubbles melted in his mouth. The freshness of the tofu and the richness of the shrimp paste perfectly matched each other. Compared with ordinary tofu with shrimp paste, the degree of cooking of this tofu was also the best. It melts and becomes tangible when you pick it up, but it tastes crispy and chewy. This taste is more satisfying than I expected.

"very good. Bai Di nodded:"You have mastered this dish very well.""

Xiang Ling is the number one scholar in the industry. Her cooking skills are truly worthy of her reputation.

The taste of the first time she made it is already better than anything Bai Di has tasted before. If this dish is served, it will definitely be sold out..Being able to eat the delicacies he imagined in a foreign country, Bai Di suddenly felt like he had no regrets about his trip.

"I'll warm the other one first. Yan Xiao took a large heat-preserving lid and covered the untouched portion.

He casually said with admiration:"Sure enough, I still need to study more on my cooking skills. Xiangling, I am willing to praise you for your cooking skills." Ranked first in Liyue."

Xiang Ling smiled proudly.

"Wow, kudos, kudos, if you try the slime mushrooms I made, maybe they taste even better!"

I really never forget to promote my own special dishes. No matter how delicious they are, ordinary people can't accept them. Maybe

Xiangling hasn't realized that when it comes to eating, the taste of the food is one thing, and so is the venue. Everything, including the appearance of the dishes, the people eating... such a lot of things will comprehensively affect the experience of eating.

As for Slime...the appearance and name alone have already driven away a lot of people. Got it

"There is another dish! Xiang Ling looked at Bai Di and blinked:"What kind of pot should I use to wrap the meat?""

Pfft!

It seems like there was a misunderstanding. It would be too embarrassing if Keqing also misunderstood something."

Bai Di explained

"It's not wrapped in a pot, but the meat is fried in a pot. If it's called too much, it's called"guobaorou"."

If we talk about shrimp paste tofu, it also has a little bit of his own taste.If you like it, then Guobao Pork can be said to be a famous dish.

This dish has a long history. The most common roasted pork strips were first used in China. Later, because they were used during diplomacy, and foreigners have strange tastes, the taste of this dish also changed to sweet and sour. The pot explodes the meat.

There are many cuisines that have been changed or introduced for the sake of diplomacy, but after the taste of Guo Bao Rou has been changed, it has become very popular among locals. It can be regarded as a famous dish that takes the essence and discards the dross.

Bai Di thought about it and described:"Guobao Pork is made from pork tenderloin, which needs to be wrapped in fried sauce. It is golden brown when fried, crispy and crispy, with a sweet and sour taste, and when it comes out of the pot, there is a kind of... Explosive feeling!"

"What's this? Yan Xiao couldn't help but smile:"This traveler's description of the dish is really weird. It exploded when it came out of the pot. I'm afraid the dish was packed with a bomb!""

"Not that kind of explosion!"Bai Di covered her face, dumbfounded.

She didn't know many of the ingredients for cooking, so naturally she couldn't name them.

"I see!"Xiang Ling understood again, she thought and said

"If you want to make it sweet and sour, you need to use sugar and vinegar. And if you want to make fried sauce, you need to use starch. Frying is very simple, as long as it is crispy."

"And that feeling of explosion must be the result of thickening the soup at the end. Bai Di described it very well, so you can start now!"

Do you understand this? In Bai Di's eyes, this is really a skill. He even heard about thickening and didn't know what it was.

Anyway, as long as Xiang Ling can do it, it's enough.

"Then I'll go up and wait."Bai Di watched and watched. Since everything has been explained clearly, it is naturally better to go up. The kitchen is such a big place, and he will not be in the way.

"Hmm... I also want you to have a taste."Xiang Ling pouted her little mouth.

"Well, anyway, I am confident that I can make the kind of dish you want."

"Go up and wait for me!"
