My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts Chapter 539 - 182 Spicy Numbing Chicken2

As for Du Xixi, going to the military hospital was no small ordeal. From heading out to undergoing examinations, she would alert countless people along the way. Du Xixi would rather rely on her Purification Talent to heal at ho than bother going to the military hospital.

Ke Xing, upon hearing Du Xixi say this, thought carefully and found it indeed true. However, he was genuinely worried about Du Xixi’s health. After contemplating for a mont, he compromised, saying, "Alright then, you just rest well at ho. If you’re really uncomfortable, we’ll call the military doctor to co over."

There were a total of three military doctors available nearby. Previously, Doctor Diwu had already co to their ho. At that ti, it was Doctor Diwu who diagnosed the toxin nad "Needle Grinding" from the Insect Clan that Yiyi and Er Er were afflicted with.

Du Xixi nodded. After drinking half a glass of warm water, she felt much better. Her eyes softened with a light smile, and after sitting for a while, she wandered into the kitchen again.

Ke Xing helplessly shook his head, knowing that his daughter-in-law didn’t have many other hobbies. What she loved most was staying in the kitchen, and her culinary skills were exceptional. He truly wanted to stop her, but couldn’t bring himself to do so.

obediently followed Du Xixi into the kitchen. Seeing her put on an apron and start moving around, seemingly deciding what to cook, he shook his head and asked, "Madam, do you have any particular preferences in flavor now?"

Since Du Xixi beca pregnant, her appetite had drastically reduced, and she increasingly preferred blander flavors. However, she couldn’t eat much of the bland dishes before losing interest. 2569 was quite worried about Du Xixi’s health, hoping that if she wanted sothing sour, spicy, sweet, or sothing else, it might boost her appetite.

Du Xixi’s lips, which were sowhat pale, lightly pressed together. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "I still want to eat sothing mild."

imdiately showed a small unhappy expression, looking quite dejected. Seeing this, Du Xixi laughed and continued, "But... I think eating sothing strong-flavored today might be nice. Maybe once I make it, I’ll want to eat it."

Du Xixi knew that continuing to eat nothing was not okay. Everyone was worried, and she was also very concerned. She could only strive to make so changes so that everyone would be at ease.

The fridge had plenty of ingredients. Thanks to high technology, everything inside remained fresh no matter when it was placed in. Du Xixi thought for a mont and only took out a chicken body, head and tail removed, split in half, intending to make a Sichuan pepper chicken.

The thod for making Sichuan pepper chicken is simple. The chicken is cleaned, boiled, soaked, aired, and shredded. The main parts used are the chicken breast, back, and leg, which are mixed with a prepared Sichuan pepper sauce.

Sichuan pepper chicken tastes numbing, llow, salty, and fresh. It’s an excellent choice to stimulate appetite.

The first step in making Sichuan pepper chicken is to imrse the cleaned chicken in soup to cook. When Du Xixi initially learned this, she used a bone broth cooked to extract the bone oil. So now, after washing the chicken multiple tis in clear water, she raised her head to ask 2569, "Is there any bone broth?"

"Yes, there’s always so warming in the pot for you to nourish your body." They say chicken soup is restorative, but Du Xixi prefers bone broth, so 2569 would cook a pot of bone broth every day, ready to serve her a bowl when she wanted, kept at just the right temperature for drinking.

The bone broth was simply made from ordinary pork bones, with only a couple of slices of ginger added to remove any odor, no other seasonings. It looked slightly yellow yet clear. When Du Xixi added the chicken body, tiny droplets floated in the moving bone broth.

These appeared to be minute fragnts from the bones. Du Xixi used a spoon to press the chicken body down, subrging it entirely in the bone broth, then covered the pot and adjusted the heat on the electric pot to low, patiently beginning to wait.

Du Xixi moved to the side, found so peppercorns, removed the seeds, and mixed them with chopped green onions, cilantro, chili slices, and onion strips. A dash of sesa oil and pepper oil. When the hot oil was poured over, it emitted an intense and stimulating aroma, causing Du Xixi to turn her head away and cover her nose as she sneezed.

This was the Sichuan pepper sauce ant for mixing into the Sichuan pepper chicken.

The chicken needed to cook for a long ti. Du Xixi covered the Sichuan pepper sauce with a bowl and went out to play with the two children. After lunch, Du Xixi went for a walk, and only upon returning was the chicken fully cooked.

After Du Xixi lifted the lid, more than half the bone broth had evaporated. The chicken soaked with bone broth appeared glossy yellow, firm enough for chopsticks to pierce it, but still intact when lifted—this was the ideal state.
