It’s going to burn!”
Xingping Chuangzhen was dumbfounded as he watched the buffalo consud by flas.
“The buffalo is on fire entirely.
Could it have failed?” Tiqie Helinai bit her thumb, her gaze fraught with anxiety.
Does that guy even know what he’s doing?
In the tea room, Liangzi Lina also frowned, lowering her voice, “Is he making a beef dish or a pork dish?”
“If it’s a beef dish, his handling of the buffalo is way too coarse!” Liangzi Lina sighed.
Tiqie Xianzuowen sat with his arms crossed, his face as composed as an ancient well.
“If tossing a cow into a fire could make a dish, then no one would toil day and night just for the artistry of ‘heat control’!” the Far Moon Commander said coolly.
“That cow has been burned beyond recognition!”
“Interesting!”
In the kitchen, Dojima Yin hung up the phone and concentrated on the screen.
He had probably decided what dish he wanted to present.
Roast piglet?
An Italian stuffed crispy roast piglet sounded nice, full of Italian farmhouse flavor.
But, doing another roast piglet dish seed like directly confronting this young man.
Dojima Yin thought about it and gave up.
Still, seeing the wild flas on the screen sparked his interest to make a barbecue dish himself…
Oh, perhaps an Egyptian feast regular, Egyptian Herb Pyramid Roast Chicken, would be quite fitting.
“This will do!” Dojima Yin said, stroking his chin.
Snap.
He turned off the screen and began to concentrate on making his own dish.
Courtyard.
Xia Yu had two staff mbers help tighten the chains and turn the already charred buffalo carcass over the charcoal pile.
The charring of the buffalo was anticipated.
Even the main character in the original ‘Chinese Culinary God’ couldn’t handle charring.
Maybe Dragon Chefs like the ‘Blast Fla Chef’ Ya Kan, who were skilled in fla cooking techniques, could have another way, but for now, with Xia Yu’s culinary skills, to create a glowing version of ‘Fla Roast Piglet,’ he had to sacrifice this buffalo.
A buffalo ruined didn’t matter.
What was important was if the roast piglet inside the buffalo could reach a high degree of completion, making the buffalo’s sacrifice worthwhile.
The red charcoal pile continued to roast the buffalo, and as the high heat grilled the skin, it continuously secreted grease, which dripped into the charcoal pile, intensifying the flas.
The iron chains binding the buffalo turned orange-red.
Xia Yu grasped the end of the chain, feeling it burn his palm, but he dared not let go for even a mont.
After roasting for about half an hour, Xia Yu endured the half-hour inferno of high temperatures, sweating without stop.
Despite his strengthened physique, he still felt tired, not just physically but also ntally, having consud a lot of spirit in highly focused states.
“It’s done—!”
Finally, the fire in the charcoal pile was no longer as intense as at the start, with ashes covering the ground.
Xia Yu mustered his spirit and summoned the staff to pull out the buffalo with the chain.
A charred buffalo lay on the ground.
The buffalo carcass emitted a rolling aroma of at, but it was mixed with a strong scent of charcoal, indicating the beef would certainly not taste good.
“Did it fail?”
Xingping Chuangzhen scratched his head as he walked over.
“I never thought you’d fail too…” Tiqie Helinai remarked behind Xia Yu, arms crossed, with a deliberately mocking tone, “You were too greedy.
When cooking, you can’t just aim for speed.
Barbecuing starts with a dium fla; you used a fierce fire from the start.
A small mistake, and the whole dish is ruined!”
“Yes, I failed.”
Xia Yu cradled his chin, inspecting the charred buffalo, and sighed.
He ant the failure of roasting the buffalo.
From mastering the ‘Fla Roast Piglet’ recipe, he had been trying tirelessly in the Chef God Space, wondering if he could make a full roasted buffalo dish while simultaneously producing a delicious roast piglet.
But the result was clear: his skill in heat control wasn’t enough.
“However, thanks to the previous Food Duel, my culinary skill increased to lv18, which allowed to advance the ‘Fla Roast Piglet’ recipe to this point…” Xia Yu took a breath.
From lv16 to lv18 in culinary skill, the 2 Talent Points he gained were allocated to the [Bursting Fla] cooking skill before he began cooking.
With a four-talent-point level in the [Bursting Fla] cooking skill, he further heightened his fla perception, making him more sensitive to fire temperature and flow.
Otherwise, not to ntion saving the whole roast buffalo, it would have been challenging to achieve perfection with the roast piglet under intense fire.
Yes.
A glowing dish is, in so sense, a flawless dish.
The heat control was the core of ‘Fla Roast Piglet’ and the most error-prone segnt, but this ti, by sacrificing the entire buffalo, Xia Yu managed to masterfully control the heat for the roast piglet!
“This ti, it should glow, right?”
Xia Yu mused internally as he fetched a kitchen knife, cutting open the buffalo’s lower abdominal seam, donning gloves, and slowly reached into the buffalo’s belly.
Hmm?!
As a bit of golden, juicy roast piglet peeked from within the buffalo’s belly, a dazzling light also radiated out.
Piglet born from a buffalo!
“Success!
The glowing version of Fla Roast Piglet!” Xia Yu’s face was illuminated by the light, a touch of excitent in his eyes, and with a powerful and crisp action, he pulled the whole piglet out of the buffalo’s body, instantly making the courtyard bright as day.
The light waned completely, lasting barely one or two seconds.
“Was I seeing things?!” Xingping Chuangzhen wiped his eyes fiercely.
“…A dish born from within a buffalo!” Niho Fuyuka covered her mouth in shock.
Tiqie Helinai bit her lip lightly, maintaining a strong front, but internally her emotions were in turmoil.
“It’s another glowing dish!”
She had tasted glowing cuisine before, reminiscing about the ‘Magical Mapo Tofu’ from over half a month ago had once again caused the Divine Tongue to enter a quirky state of hiatus.
Bang!
Tiqie Xianzuowen sprang upright, full of awe, “That, that light is…”
“Another glowing dish,” Liangzi Lina murmured.
That evening, she and the Shi Lin Temple chief, Shinohara Shigetaro, practically devoured every glowing dish at Xia Family’s cuisine shop, leaving a deep impression.
What captivated her heart the most was the ‘Magical Mapo Tofu,’ which she hadn’t been able to forget.
Even now, recalling it, Liangzi Lina’s ears seed to hear the roaring sound of ingredients!
“Gulp~”
Watching Xia Yu, as he placed a whole golden roast piglet on an enormous white ceramic plate, many staff mbers in the courtyard sniffed the delicious aroma filling the air and quietly swallowed their saliva.
“Chu Jia, Chu Jia!” The head maid tugged the sleeve of a brown-haired maid, pointing at the drool by her mouth, and whispered, “Wipe my drool!”
The maid t the head maid’s stern gaze, imdiately standing straight, reluctantly tearing her eyes away from the roast piglet platter.
Xia Yu held the platter, placing it on the low table in the tea room, “This is my dish, the Fla Roast Piglet!”
After saying that, he withdrew from the tea room, standing outside.
In his current state, sitting in the tea room would be quite rude.
During the process of preparing the Fla Roast Piglet, he had been soaked with sweat over and over.
Not to ntion the charcoal and oil stains on his clothing, the natural body odor of sweat was unbearable even for himself.
This odor seriously affected the diners’ mood and could spoil the taste of the food.
“Do you have clean clothes for to change into?” seeing the crowd focused on him, Xia Yu spread out his hands, “I forgot to change into a chef’s uniform earlier.”
Tiqie Helinai huffed, glancing at a group of servants outside the door.
“Take him to shower and change clothes.”
The head maid stepped forward and bowed, saying to Xia Yu, “Please follow —”
