Plane Store: I rely on five-star reviews to become rich and live forever

Chapter 383: I'm cooking at the Magic Castle 1

The wind and snow roared outside the window, and it was difficult to see anything ten meters away.

In the room, Gerda's tense body relaxed slightly, and she loosened the cloak that wrapped herself tightly.

A little hot.

The girl who left home alone at the age of eleven or twelve and almost got lost in the snowy fields of the Far North with only a reindeer, lowered her little head, but her eyes couldn't help but wander around, looking at the interior decoration that she had never seen before.

On the top, a dozen big red lanterns were hung high, and even the beams were carved with simple and beautiful Chinese patterns.

There are two rows of nails with different spacing on the wooden wall. On the top row are two large wooden signs about ten centimeters wide and forty to fifty centimeters long, which read -

[Cantonese Chicken Soup Hot Pot] and [Butter Spicy Hot Pot].

The nails in the next row are denser, because the hanging signs are twice as small, and there are more than twenty pieces hanging densely on them.

She could recognize some like [Snowflake Beef] [Black Fish Fillet] [Tomato] [Broccoli], but [Yellow Throat] [Hairy Belly] [Tofu Puff] [Lucky Bag], what are they?

"Wow, why are there pig brain flowers? Is that an edible flower? The name is really special..." Gerda covered her mouth and exclaimed softly.

Just as she was dazzled, an oriental woman with black hair and black eyes walked out of the kitchen.

There was only glass between the back kitchen and the front room. Behind the glass hung a large fan of fresh beef, and a sharp kitchen knife was nailed to the oversized chopping board.

In the kitchen, there are two chefs cutting ginger, onions and garlic sideways to the guests. Judging from the color of their hair, they are actually mysterious orientals rarely seen in the Mist Continent!

"I saw that you were barefoot, so I took it upon myself to find a pair of shoes for you. Can you see if they fit?"

The young boss placed a pair of red plush short boots next to Gerda's legs, which flattered the little girl.

"Thank you! I will pay for it later!"

Gu Xingyan watched the girl happily put on the shoes made in China in the 21st century, and wondered about the current plane she was in.

The surrounding area was deserted and covered with ice and snow. Except for this girl, her bare feet were still unscathed.

The girl has a Nordic face and leads a talking reindeer, which is currently happily eating carrots in the stable.

Is this supposed to be some kind of Western magical world?

Gu Xingyan, who was holding her chin and thinking, heard the girl thank you again happily: "It's very warm, thank you!"

Gu Xingyan smiled and pointed to the menu card on the wall, "Is there any soup base you are interested in?"

Even the mysterious little girl in the magical world has difficulty choosing, not to mention she doesn't understand what "hot pot" is.

"Is hot pot a special kind of barbecue? You light a fire in the pot and then grill the meat to eat?"

Gu Xingyan couldn't help but laugh. He took out his phone and showed the little girl photos of the two pot bases, "One is spicy and the other is sweet. It depends on which flavor you want to try."

Gerda was first amazed by the exquisite "magic prop" of the mobile phone, and then her attention was attracted by the content inside, and she frowned so much that she could kill a fly.

The red pot of soup was filled with hot red oil, which was obviously very different from tomato soup, and looked very much like the legendary witch's secret potion...

"I want that chicken soup."

"A chicken soup hot pot!" Gu Xingyan immediately shouted into the kitchen. One of the chefs moved and grabbed a live chicken from under the table and killed it to order!

Of course, considering that Wai Guoren seemed afraid to look at the slaughtering scene, the chef just showed the ingredients, then turned his back, and carried out a series of processes such as bleeding, hair removal, internal organ cleaning, and bone removal in an orderly manner.

Gerda thought it was okay. Her family was not rich and she usually had to help the adults with work. She was more surprised that this restaurant dared to show the confidence of the chef to its customers.

"Our soup base will take about thirty minutes, so I'll help you instruct the kitchen first. Do you have any ideas for side dishes for the shabu-shabu?"

Seeing that the girl still didn't understand, Gu Xingyan had no choice but to say: "If you really don't know how to choose, can I just give you a set meal?"

Gerda showed a saved smile, and finally she didn’t have to worry about it anymore!

After a while, the chef came out with a small flat-bottomed hot pot. There was only a pot of water and a few medicinal herbs - Codonopsis pilosula, ginger slices, yam and red dates.

On the walnut-colored round wooden table, there is a large circle of dark classical Chinese patterns in the center. In addition, there is also a circular pattern in front of each seat. It is as beautiful and complex as a magic circle. It is essentially a built-in induction cooker.

Gerda was alone, so her small hot pot was placed next to the bowl. After a while, the water boiled.

"Oh!" Gerda was glad that she did not touch the pot rashly, otherwise she would have been suddenly burned.

She had just left the Finnish witch's house not long ago, and the first thought in her mind was: This must be magic!

Gu Xingyan poured the chicken bones into the boiling water, quickly closed the lid, and when it boiled again, she turned to medium-low heat on the touch button on the table.

"Please wait for a while."

Gerda shook her head vigorously and had no objection at all.

Her main purpose of coming in was to keep warm and escape the wind and snow. She was not a food explorer who professionally inspected the store's services. She originally wanted to stay longer.

The small hot pot at a close distance continued to emit heat, and the aroma of chicken oil soon spread from inside.

"Gudu!" The pot lid was pushed open by steam.

"Gudu!" Gerda swallowed.

"The soup is ready." Gu Xingyan opened the lid, and white mist spurted out of the pot instantly, carrying the fragrant sweet aroma of chicken. Although it is simple, it will never disappoint.

The chef came out at the right time, added an appropriate amount of salt to adjust the taste, and served Gerda a bowl of chicken soup.

Gerda couldn't wait to take a sip. Her unsuspecting tongue was burned, and she let out a long "hiss" before blowing for a while and taking a sip.

"So sweet!"

In Gerda's meager vocabulary, only this word can be used to describe the deliciousness of chicken soup, and if you are a gourmet from Laoguang, you will definitely praise it -

“It tastes like chicken!”

What is “chicken flavor” you ask?

Some studies say that it is the various water-soluble substances represented by inosinic acid in chicken, as well as the fat that can emit a unique aroma, which together contribute to the excellent flavor of chicken.

To achieve the ultimate pursuit of taste buds, you need to carefully select from breed, gender, age, feeding method, etc.

The early pickiness made the cooking process simple.

This is the reason why Cantonese hot pot dares to use water to cook soup!

After Gerda drank a full bowl of hot soup, she felt that she was completely warm. Every pore in her body relaxed comfortably, and her face turned red.

"Don't worry, you can have another bowl." In the eyes of outsiders, the little girl was not as reserved as she thought, as if she hadn't eaten anything good for ten days and a half.

The second bowl of chicken soup with golden oil and green onions was placed in front of her, reflecting the girl's rosy face.

There was a snap.

A teardrop as big as a bean fell into the soup bowl.
