Although they were eager to take a bite, both Food Spirits restrained themselves and only had a few bites before reluctantly returning to Qin Lang’s side.
That’s because they both needed to use their Food Skills in the cooking process that would follow.
A qualified Food Spirit should never be distracted while cooking!
“Let’s make Tomato and Scrambled Eggs next.”
Glancing at the chicken soup still simmering in the pot, Qin Lang took tomatoes and chicken eggs out of the refrigerator. After Dan Bao processed them, he began to cook the next dish.
The tomatoes were cut into large chunks and small chunks separately, then set aside in a bowl.
He heated the pan, added a little salt and pepper, and slowly stirred the eggs until they solidified and took shape. After that, he removed them from the pan and set them aside.
As the eggs were stirred and solidified, a rich eggy aroma slowly rose from the pan with the heat, making Dan Bao’s eyes light up in an instant.
This was the flavor it was most familiar and infatuated with!
“This time, the scrambled eggs taste different from before.” Seeing Dan Bao’s expectant expression, Qin Lang continued the next steps methodically.
He added the chopped tomatoes, a suitable amount of salt, white sugar, and light soy sauce into the pan. Once the tomatoes became soft and produced juice, he added the eggs back in. Then, he stirred them together, letting the eggs fully absorb the sauce.
Lastly, he added a small amount of garlic paste and chopped green onions, gave the dish a brief stir, and then took it off the heat.
And just like that, a home-cooked dish of Tomato and Scrambled Eggs was ready.
“Would you like a taste?”
Seeing that Dan Bao was already salivating, and Spicy also showed a look of interest, Qin Lang broke into a smile and picked up some food to feed them.
Seeing the elated expressions on the Food Spirits’ faces, he also served himself a helping.
The eggs perfectly assimilated the flavor of the tomatoes, resulting in a unique tangy, salty, and rich taste. The hint of sweetness further enhanced the umami taste of the dish.
After taking a bite, one cannot help but yearn for more.
“Paired with rice, it’s absolute perfection.” Qin Lang swallowed, glancing at the sauce at the bottom of the plate.
In the stir-frying process, he intentionally cooked the tomatoes a little longer. This way, there was more sauce, which was perfect for mixing with rice.
“Next up is the Matsutake Chicken Soup. Dinner will be ready very soon!”
Qin Lang’s gaze shifted to the Matsutake Chicken Soup still simmering on the stove.
Approximately half an hour had passed while he was cooking the previous two dishes.
“Speed it up by half an hour.”
Qin Lang signaled Spicy to accelerate the soup. After removing the lid of the pot, the fragrant smell of chicken soup immediately filled the air. He took out the green onion sections and ginger slices, adding the prepared matsutake slices.
“Speed it up by another ten minutes.”
Seeing that Spicy still had energy left, Qin Lang gave the instruction with a smile.
With the promotion to two stars, Spicy’s Flavor Value limit increased to 200 points. Although it had not been tested, it was expected to have reached the limit.
This meant that its Combat Power Value had doubled, likewise the time for using the Food Skill for acceleration had naturally increased.
As he lifted the lid of the pot again, the slices of matsutake softened in the soup, their surfaces glossy and moist. They absorbed and released a unique matsutake flavor into the chicken soup.
Last but not least, he adjusted the taste by adding a bit of salt. The Matsutake Chicken Soup, a simple recipe that maximized the deliciousness of its ingredients, was now ready.
“Time to eat!”
He brought the three dishes to the table, served three big bowls of rice, and they all gathered around the table, ready to savor the meal, the two spirits, and the human.
Qin Lang picked up a piece of the previously untasted Stir-fried Beef with Scallions and put it into his mouth.
The moment the still steaming beef entered his mouth, the rich flavors of the surface sauce and the beef juices blended together and instantly burst forth on his taste buds.
Even though he hadn’t tasted the green onion sections, their savory aroma had already infused into the beef, rioting in his mouth and nose alongside the natural umami of the beef.
The tender beef required only a gentle chew to release a burst of delectable juices. The fantastic, effortless taste sensation gave Qin Lang an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.
The stir-fried Beef with Scallions was indeed of top-tier quality; it was a standout even compared to those he had made in his previous life.
After swallowing a bite of beef, Qin Lang couldn’t help but scoop up a spoonful of rice, allowing the resilient, well-cooked grains encased within the lingering delectable flavors to burst forth with an equally wonderful aftertaste.
Not only did the Tomato and Scrambled Eggs go well with rice, but so did Stir-fried Beef with Scallions.
As Qin Lang pondered, he spooned a few doses of Tomato and Scrambled Eggs’ sauce onto the rice, stirred it together with Tomato and Scrambled Eggs using his chopsticks.
Both Dan Bao and Spicy paused in unison.
Clearly, they had not anticipated this way of eating!
“You should try it too,” Qin Lang chuckled, seeing their eager expressions. He poured the same sauce over the rice in front of them.
With the unique sweet and sour taste of Tomato and Scrambled Eggs added, the rice seemed to be even more appetizing.
As Qin Lang gently chewed, each grain of rice danced on his tongue with the juicy tomatoes and rich, savory scrambled eggs, an indescribable delight to taste.
With the combination of the two dishes, he quickly finished a large bowl of rice and languidly spooned up the still-steaming Matsutake Chicken Soup, which radiated a delicious blend of matsutake and chicken flavor.
With time, the delicacy of the chicken had completely permeated into the soup, intertwined with the unique flavor of matsutake. Just a light sip brightened Qin Lang’s eyes instantaneously.
The flavors of the mushroom and chicken melded together perfectly, the wonderful taste reaching the back of his mind. The warm chicken soup flowed through his throat and into his stomach, like a warm surge rushing towards his limbs and trunk, giving him an incredibly soothing sensation.
Drinking soup after a meal; such a delightful taste.
After expressing his admiration, Qin Lang picked up a piece of matsutake and put it in his mouth.
The soup-braised matsutake had a completely different flavor compared to grilled, fried, or sashimi preparation methods.
A gentle bite made the chicken soup absorbed by the matsutake burst forth in his mouth, mingling with the deepest flavor of the matsutake, a completely different taste sensation.
Unlike other mushrooms, matsutake has dense flesh, which offers quite a chew and a fulfilling taste when eaten.
After Qin Lang picked up a piece of chicken and chewed it together, this sensation elevated to a new level.
The chicken, simmered for an hour, showed no signs of dryness. Its fresh and tender meat was brimming with juices. The wonderful taste of the chicken interwoven with the texture of the matsutake created a pleasing expression on Qin Lang’s face.
“It might be worth exchanging points for more matsutake.”
“Other top-tier ingredients can be exchanged and tasted too…”
Qin Lang instantaneously thought of some attractive ingredients he had seen in the Cooking Contest Points Exchange list which he had not exchanged yet.
Immediately, his expression became bitter.
Although 100 competition points were not few, it still wouldn’t be enough if he goes on like this.
Points were crucial; he needed to find an opportunity to participate in more Cooking Contests.
