After the divorce, I became popular all over the world with delicious food

In the next few days, Lord Marshal invited Chu Nan to commute with him every day on the grounds that he went to the TV station on the way, but Chu Nan didn't want to accept his convenience and refused many times, but Lord Marshal still came to ask every day tirelessly.

Chu Nan rarely saw the marshal on the TV station, at most, he met him once or twice at the elevator entrance, and Chu Nan pretended not to know him, and left quickly.

He thought he could keep this state forever, but the news of the marshal's participation in the military program was like weeds, growing wildly in the wind. Chu Nan heard many colleagues discussing quietly in the tea room, and it was almost inevitable.

He and the Marshal had a marriage contract, and everyone who could access the star network knew about it, and Chu Nan didn't know if anyone discussed it behind his back, so he was even more solitary, for fear that someone would ask gossip.

In the afternoon, Chu Nan took a taxi to the TV station ahead of time, and happened to meet the hostess who was about to go upstairs after her lunch break. The hostess was arranged to be included in the program through discussion between the director and Chu Nan before the filming started.

The director himself watched Chu Nan’s live broadcast and was full of praise for Chu Nan’s cooking skills. That’s why he tried his best to invite star network anchors to host traditional programs, but the live broadcast format is different from the TV program format. One is real-time and audience Participating in the interaction, one is that the pre-recording is completed, and the interaction with the audience is not strong. If Chu Nan is forced to explain alone, the program will be a bit boring.

So the director felt that he should arrange another host with a little knowledge of cooking skills to play a similar role as a fan. When Chu Nan is cooking, he will ask questions for the audience at the right time, and taste it for the audience at the end, so as to prevent Chu Nan from talking to himself. embarrassment.

This is the host who was selected on the TV station a few days ago and has a little cooking skills. Chu Nan and her had a good time working together, so they greeted each other politely.

The hostess smiled, and everyone went upstairs and entered the shooting area together.

At this time, the lighting engineer and cameraman were ready, the hostess and Chu Nan changed their costumes, put on a little make-up and started recording.

After reading the opening remarks and sponsors, the hostess picked up a pot of glutinous rice and said in a timely manner: "Today, before the filming of the show, I have seen Teacher Chu's secret weapon. I don't know what delicious food Teacher Chu will bring us. Yes, I can't wait!"

Chu Nan smiled at the camera, "The secret weapon is the glutinous rice soaked overnight in advance. Today I'm going to make eight-treasure rice with sand and glutinous rice with red dates and lotus root."

"In addition to glutinous rice, the ingredients needed are also whole lotus root joints, sun-dried red dates, rock sugar, brown sugar, lard, dried osmanthus, red bean paste, raisins and various nuts."

In the previous issues, Chu Nan prepared red bean paste, which was stored in the refrigerator as raw material. After introducing the raw materials to everyone, Chu Nan began to cook.

Some simple hostesses volunteered to take over, and Chu Nan asked her to cut off a small section of the whole lotus root from the big head, and then wash the lotus hole with clean water.

Then he personally demonstrated how to compact the glutinous rice, "After the glutinous rice is stuffed into the hole of the lotus root, be sure to poke it in with chopsticks until it can't be poked, so that the glutinous rice is firmer, and the final taste is better, and it will not be loose. .”

After stuffing the glutinous rice, Chu Nan put the small section of lotus root back to its original place and pricked it down with a toothpick to seal the glutinous rice.

"The next step is to cook in the pot." Chu Nan turned on the fire, put the stew pot filled with half a pot of water on the gas stove, then poured in brown sugar, red dates and rock sugar, and finally put the lotus root into the pot, " After the high heat is boiled, turn to low heat and simmer slowly until the lotus root becomes soft, then it can be out of the pot."

"In the middle of the time, let's cook another delicacy - Eight Treasures Rice with Sand. Here we use the red bean paste we talked about before. Do you remember how to make it? If you forget, you have to review the content of the previous issues."

Speaking of which, Chu Nan asked the hostess to help steam the remaining glutinous rice in a steamer, and then took a break for a while.

Recording a program is not like a live broadcast. It must take care of the audience and not make the audience wait too long. Therefore, before the live broadcast, Chu Nan will complete some irrelevant and time-consuming steps in advance, while recording a program can complete the cooking steps in chronological order. Waiting time for post-cutting directly, or inserting advertisements

It takes at least three to ten minutes for the glutinous rice to be cooked. The director announced an intermission, and Chu Nan and the hostess sat in the waiting room for a while.

Chu Nan poured a glass of water for the hostess. The hostess industry has some occupational diseases, and their throats are often swollen and sore. After Chu Nan knew about it, he brought some dried fruits that sharpen the throat, which can be soaked in water to drink at any time.

The hostess took the teacup, said thank you, then looked around, and then quietly said, "Can I ask you a question?"

Looking at the hostess' actions, Chu Nan suddenly had a bad feeling. He seemed to know what the hostess was going to ask.

really.

"Did you know? The marshal is recording a program on the TV station now." The hostess asked cautiously.

Probably everyone knew the story of his divorce with Marshal. Chu Nan smiled wryly in his heart. In order not to be looked down upon at work, he kept avoiding Ji Xun. Unexpectedly, everyone knew about it.

"I know you have divorced, but the marshal also gave an interview before, saying that you were separated peacefully, so..." The hostess was very embarrassed, and stopped in the middle of speaking, but she couldn't help it, and continued: "I I am a fan of Lord Marshal, and I have been looking for his autograph for the past few days, but I have no chance, do you have a good relationship with Lord Marshal in private? Can you get an autograph for me?"

As she spoke, she took out the autographed photo she had prepared in her bag early in the morning.

In the photo is a giant white beast, standing on a prairie blazing with flames of war. His body is covered with wounds of all sizes, which is very shocking.

Chu Nan felt that this photo looked familiar, and he didn't quite understand why Ji Xun had to use the photo of the beast to sign it.

After watching for a while, Chu Nan apologized and said, "I'm sorry, I'm actually not related to the marshal, so I can't help you."

The hostess sighed, she was not very disappointed, she was also mentally prepared, after all, if the Marshal and Chu Nan had a good relationship, she would not have divorced at the beginning, she had tried various methods these days, but she did not meet alone Marshal Guo came to Chu Nan with the mentality of giving it a try.

Thinking that Chu Nan and the marshal had divorced, the hostess might assume that she was divorced by an idol. She had too much affection, and in turn comforted Chu Nan, "Mr. Chu, don't be discouraged. You are good-looking, you can cook, you have a good personality. That's great, there will definitely be a lot of high-quality men waiting for you in the future, Marshal is not an ordinary person after all, and it's not shameful for him to divorce the engagement."

"Thank you." Chu Nan was no longer emotionally troubled by the divorce, but the hostess comforted him sincerely, so he had no choice but to thank him.

However, the image of that giant white beast kept lingering in his mind, and Chu Nan felt that he must have seen it somewhere.

Three and ten minutes passed quickly, the director called for someone to come over, Chu Nan and the hostess finished chatting, and returned to the camera.

When the filming was about to start, Chu Nan suddenly thought that the giant white beast seemed to be very similar to Ji Xun's kitten, but it was only a matter of size. Could it be a father-son relationship?

But can pets be brought to the battlefield?

Chu Nan didn't know, but he couldn't allow him to continue thinking. The director had already started calling.

The glutinous rice had been steamed, and Chu Nan added lard and sugar to it, stirred well, took out a bowl, and spread a layer of lard into the bowl.

"Mr. Chu, I have a question I want to ask you. Why do you put lard on the bowl?"

"The purpose of applying lard is to facilitate unmolding later." After Chunan answered briefly, he spread a thin layer of prepared nuts on the bottom of the bowl coated with lard, "Now I'm starting to make decorations, the nuts used here You can choose what you like to eat, and I choose raisins, dried longan, ginkgo, dried red dates, walnut kernels, wolfberry and sweet-scented osmanthus based on the principle of color matching."

The hostess squeezed a raisin and tasted it, "I like this."

"Then let's put more sandwiches." Chu Nan spread the steamed glutinous rice on the nuts thinly, covering the entire edge of the bowl by the way, then poured red bean paste in the middle, and put a lot of nuts, especially raisins.

Finally, Chu Nan filled the bowl with glutinous rice and handed it to the hostess to steam in a steamer. After 10 minutes, the eight-treasure rice sandwich was ready.

The sandwich eight-treasure rice is placed upside down on the plate, with colorful nuts on the top, which is very beautiful and exudes the fragrance of glutinous rice.

At this time, Chu Nan went to the stew pot to prick the lotus root again. After confirming that it was ripe, he turned on the fire to collect the juice, and poured the soup on the surface of the lotus root from time to time to color it.

When the juice was thick, Chu Nan turned off the fire, took out the glutinous rice, took off the toothpick and cut it into [-] mm wide slices, and finally stacked them on the plate in order, and poured the soup prepared in the pot.

Both desserts were ready, Chu Nan asked the hostess to try it first, and the hostess was not polite, she picked up a piece of red dates and glutinous rice lotus root with chopsticks with a smile, took a bite, and immediately the lotus root slices stretched into long strands.

"Wow, this lotus root is very delicious. It tastes crisp and waxy, soft and delicious, and it also has the sweetness of red dates." The hostess chewed a few times, and her eyes lit up.Picked up another piece and continued to eat, "Fortunately, I didn't eat much at noon, so I can eat a few more bites now."

"Let me try Teacher Chu's favorite work again." After tasting the red dates, glutinous rice and lotus root, the hostess brought the camera to the eight-treasure rice with sand. With a big appetite and colorful nuts, it is crystal clear and very attractive to look at.

The hostess used a knife to cut the eight-treasure rice from the middle, exposing the dark red red bean paste. She cut off a corner with the red bean paste with a knife and put it on a plate to taste carefully.

"The glutinous rice is more chewy than the glutinous rice and lotus root I tasted just now. It is served with delicate red bean paste and sweet and sour nuts. It's a must!" The hostess closed her eyes and looked intoxicated, "Do you know what the point is?"

"Lard!" the hostess said, without any hesitation, "the glutinous rice with lard has a special flavor. Before shooting, I was wondering if adding lard to the dessert would be delicious, but the taste... is the finishing touch. Pen."

"Teacher Chu is Teacher Chu!" After commenting on the food made by Chu Nan, the show came to an end. The hostess thanked Chu Nan for his cooking as usual, and then ended the recording.

After the filming ended, there was no work for Chu Nan. Normally, Chu Nan would leave early by himself, but today he kept his mind on something. When the hostess finished taking off her make-up and went back to the lounge, he realized that Chu Nan hadn't left yet!
