Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Classic Chinese Delicacy: Roast Duck 2
"However, we won’t be able to watch this reaction for a little while."
Jiang Qiuqiu zood in the cara. "Roast Bird is a rather special dish. Both the ingredient prep and the cooking process take a long ti. Since this is a short stream, I’ve prepared so birds that are almost finished roasting ahead of ti."
She turned the cara again, aiming the small tracking cara-bot at two ovens in a corner of the kitchen.
Because the kitchen in this mansion was quite large, the two ovens in the corner were outside the holographic scanner’s range, so the fans in the stream couldn’t sll anything.
But Jiang Qiuqiu walked closer to them.
All the streaming equipnt moved with the strear. The burst of fragrance lasted only for a mont.
As the roast ducks in those two ovens entered the range of Jiang Qiuqiu’s new holographic scanner, everyone watching the screen was hit with the aroma of rendered fat, along with the sweetness of honey and at combined. The scent was complex and rich.
#...How many more tis do I have to say it?! I’m so here for this!#
#Is this the power of Juju?!#
#She’s too good, I kneel. Waaaah, it slls so good! I want to eat the bird, I really want to eat the bird!#
#I could eat a bird this delicious every day! Two of them!#
Walking closer, Jiang Qiuqiu explained for a mont, "The white skin has turned a beautiful orange-yellow. You all know what it slls like now, and the skin has beco very crispy."
"But the at is still fresh and tender at this point. One bite, and you’ll feel the juices burst on your tongue."
"I see, I see. It seems my description isn’t tempting enough. You all want
to move on to the next step."
She chuckled and used a long fork to take the duck out.
"For today’s dish, I’ve prepared so round wrappers, sweet sauce, and scallion whites. This way, more people can enjoy it."
"Before I show you how to eat it, we first need to slice the at."
Slicing the at was all about knife skills. A small, sharp knife seed to be a natural extension of Jiang Qiuqiu’s hand. With flicks of her wrist, slice after slice of thin duck at was placed onto a white porcelain plate.
"When you slice the at, you need to include both the skin and the at. The thickness should be just right. Look, when the knife makes contact and presses down slightly, you can still see juice flowing out of the at."
"I need to be quick. This dish is best enjoyed while it’s hot."
To allow everyone to better savor the delicacy, Jiang Qiuqiu fell silent during the subsequent duck-slicing process.
She might have been quiet, but the people in the stream had plenty to say.
Everyone marveled at her skill—
Incredible.
After about three to five minutes, three large plates of neatly arranged thin slices, each with skin and at, were set on the table.
Jiang Qiuqiu placed the pre-prepared wrappers, scallion whites, and sauce to the side. "Everyone, watch my demonstration."
She picked up two slices of at with her chopsticks and placed them on a pale yellow wrapper. She added half a spoonful of sweet bean sauce and a bit of scallion, then folded the wrapper in half, and then in half again. "It’s best to eat this all in one bite to experience the most authentic flavor."
"Alright, it’s getting late, so let’s start plating!"
The scallion whites, wrappers, and sauce were already set out. Jiang Qiuqiu just had to add the duck at to the small plates. Preparing in advance saved a lot of steps, and in less than ten minutes, all the duck at had been distributed.
There wasn’t a large quantity of the dish this ti, and each portion wasn’t very big. So, in a rare turn of events, almost seventy percent of the viewers watching live got a chance to taste the delicacy.
The eating was over in a flash.
But the speed at which everyone rushed to comnt was even faster—lightning-fast.
#I finally, finally, finally got to eat it! My luck is just the worst. I’ve been camping out in this stream every day, just slling the food, and my heart was about to break! Today, I finally got to eat the delicious Roast Bird! I finally understand why everyone is willing to wait for Juju!#
Because delicious food is the greatest bait a chef can cast for their diners.
And everyone was hooked, unwilling to ever get off the line.
