Chen Ze rested his chin on his hand, pondering about Sun Mushrooms. After all, he did experint with them today, and the curry he made using Sun Mushrooms tasted much better than the regular kind. Eating it always gave off a sensation akin to the flavor of the sun itself.
"Dear, what are you thinking about?" Lafra hugged Chen Ze from behind, curiously resting her little head on Chen Ze’s shoulder.
"Lafra, I’m wondering what kind of dish would be best to make with these Sun Mushrooms," Chen Ze said with a smile, rubbing Lafra’s cheek. He was now contemplating whether he could use Sun Mushrooms to improve so new dishes.
"I’m sleepy," Lafra said softly as she kissed Chen Ze and then yawned.
"Ah? In that case, let’s go to sleep," Chen Ze glanced at his phone and realized, after all the pondering, that he had already spent almost half the day on it. No wonder Betty had left and the restaurant’s door was locked, probably by Lafra.
"Yes, let’s go to sleep," Chen Ze stretched, feeling genuinely tired after a busy day.
The next morning, Chen Ze got up rubbing his back, and don’t get the wrong idea, nothing inappropriate for children had happened the night before.
"I really didn’t expect Lafra’s sleeping habits to be so terrible. Has she been hiding them all this ti?" Chen Ze lanted, since being kicked in your sleep is hardly a pleasant experience.
"Oh well, she is my girlfriend after all," Chen Ze chuckled. It was all he could do.
Going downstairs, Chen Ze faintly had an idea, but before trying out this Sun Mushroom-related idea, he needed to check on the progress of the paper he was making and then use that paper to make so paper-wrapped fried chicken.
He went to the basent, picked up the paper, which was now dry and had beco sowhat coarse but still slled nice with a fragrance of spices, due to the way it was made.
"It slls pretty good, but I wonder how it will turn out when used to make paper-wrapped fried chicken?" Chen Ze was satisfied; the paper’s flexibility was fine too, aning it wouldn’t just crumble into pieces when wrapping the fried chicken.
Chen Ze took the paper upstairs. Lafra was still sleeping, and for so reason, her sleep had gotten much longer recently. When he asked her about it, she just blushed, stamped her foot on his, and flat out refused to tell him why.
Chen Ze vaguely thought it might have sothing to do with ’that ti of the month’, but indeed, it was not his place to probe too deeply.
"Let think... what was the recipe for paper-wrapped fried chicken again?" Chen Ze returned to the kitchen, attempting to recreate the lost recipe from his mory.
Soon, the kitchen was filled with a very appetizing scent, prompting Chen Ze to lick his lips as he hadn’t eaten breakfast yet, and it seed reasonable that paper-wrapped fried chicken could be worthy of a state banquet.
[You have made an acceptable paper-wrapped fried chicken, lost cuisine production experience has increased by 3 points]
[You have figured out the approximate recipe for paper-wrapped fried chicken with the help of others, reward: one paper-wrapped fried chicken recipe]
"That’s it?" Chen Ze was disappointed; the reward from the System was vastly inferior to the last one, especially without that 500 points of lost cuisine production experience.
Chen Ze was instantly captivated by the recipe for the paper-wrapped fried chicken, then he suddenly understood why this dish had received a barely passing grade.
"Turns out it’s missing this, no wonder they said it’s made with Yuzi peel. Although it’s not directly made from Yuzi peel, the fragrance of the peel is still needed to enhance the entire flavor of the fried chicken, while also neutralizing the greasiness," Chen Ze mused thoughtfully.
It seed that relying on the help of an all-knowing, all-powerful entity wasn’t quite effective, at least in a way that affected his own ratings. However, being able to obtain the recipe was a pleasant surprise.
"There are so many lost cuisines in Huaxia. As long as I ask for them one by one, even if I don’t gain experience, just having the recipes themselves, I believe it’s worth a shot," Chen Ze struck the palm of his hand, truly believing that even without the experience, obtaining the lost recipes would be a great deal for him.
Chen Ze picked up his storage and then took out all the ingredients needed for paper-wrapped fried chicken. He planned to follow the System’s recipe to make a batch of paper-wrapped fried chicken to taste how the real dish should be like.
Lafra climbed out of bed, although she was reluctant to do so. After all, the weather was cold, and lately, Lafra was adjusting her condition, so she had wanted to lie in and sleep in. But that incredibly delicious sll was too tempting, and it lured the cravings right out of her stomach.
"Dear, what are you making?" Lafra walked into the kitchen and saw Chen Ze taking a bundle of paper out of the pot.
"Eh? Lafra, you’re awake? I’m making paper-wrapped fried chicken, want to try so?" Chen Ze also gave Lafra a surprised look, then placed the bundle of paper onto a large plate.
[You have made a perfect paper-wrapped fried chicken, lost cuisine crafting experience increased by 15 points]
He was calm about the perfect rating; after all, he was a man who had undergone special training, and besides, the recipe for the paper-wrapped fried chicken was already close to perfection.
Lafra imdiately nodded her head, her stomach had been growling, and the intense aroma beca even more alluring as she approached.
Chen Ze picked up a pair of chopsticks, peeled open the fried-hard paper, revealing the chicken inside.
The golden chicken was emitting a rich scent of spices, with a faint hint of Yuzi’s fresh aroma. Lafra washed her hands with Magical Energy, also took a mont to tidy up her personal hygiene, then she reached out, gently tearing off a chicken leg.
Looking at the golden chicken at in front of her, Lafra stuck out her tongue and licked her lips before taking a bite.
"Mmm~" Lafra closed her eyes in satisfaction. Although the chicken was fried, it lted in her mouth and wasn’t greasy at all, but rather, exceptionally delicious.
The strong flavor of the spices entered her mouth, not overwhelming her taste buds, but rather leaving Lafra with a craving for more, feeling that the spices and chicken at were perfectly integrated, enhancing each other’s flavors.
Chen Ze as well tore off a chicken wing, preferring the texture of eating wings over legs.
"Whew~ No wonder Tang Bohu said, ’Roasted chicken wings, my favorite.’ The flavor of this fried chicken is really good." Chen Ze licked his fingers, deciding it was ti to put this dish on the nu and conquer the taste buds of his custors.
