Gourmet Beast Tamer

Chapter 54: Winter melon turned into skin

"Uncle Luo Hui, I'm going back first!"

After finishing cooking the steamed sea bass at night, Qin Lang waved to Luo Hui, who was still busy in the restaurant.

"Get ready for the game the day after tomorrow. I'm looking forward to your performance!" Luo Hui also waved to Qin Lang, but soon got busy again at the call of the diners.

Looking away from Luo Hui, Qin Lang walked out of the restaurant.

The next moment, his expression turned slightly strange.

At the door of the restaurant, Qin Lang saw three familiar figures.

"Why are you here?" He couldn't help but ask.

"You are worthy of being my old enemy. You actually collected three food recommender badges so quickly, and you are qualified to participate in the cooking competition." Zhao Chen crossed his arms and said, "Only you are worthy of being mine." Opponent" expression, "In this case, I have to work harder."

"I will give you a surprise in a few days!"

He spoke confidently, as if he had some plan brewing in his mind.

"In that case, come on." Seeing Zhao Chen's mysterious look, Qin Lang encouraged him perfunctorily, "Is this what you came to me to say?"

"Let me tell you." Qi Xiaoyu couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but interject, "I got three infield VIP tickets for the event the day after tomorrow. This is the best view of the cooking competition venue!"

She took out three tickets from her pocket and waved them in front of Qin Lang's eyes. "When the time comes, Weiwei, I, and some guy from the second grade will go to watch your game. You have to work hard and don't do it in the scoring competition." Knocked out!"

"Hey! What do you call a middle-class guy?" Zhao Chen couldn't help shouting, but was ignored.

Du Weiwei, who was standing next to Qi Xiaoyu, glanced at Qin Lang and said the same, "Come on for the game."

When she saw Qin Lang's name appearing on the list of contestants, she became more aware of the gap in their cooking skills.

No one knows better than them how fast Qin Lang obtained three recommender badges.

It can be said that they watched Qin Lang go from being registered as a Yuling Chef to reaching this level in just a few days.

"Thank you." After understanding the purpose of the three people's visit, Qin Lang showed a grateful expression, "I will try not to go on a tour."

Thinking of the inspiration that suddenly came from Uncle Luo Hui's words before the dinner opening time, confidence appeared in his eyes.

If it were that dish, it would surely excel in the rating competition.

There shouldn't be much of a problem in advancing to the top eight.

The three of them came here just to cheer Qin Lang up, and by the way, they told him that they would watch the game in the infield.

After talking for a while, they said goodbye and left.

Zhao Chen seemed to want to say something more, but Qi Xiaoyu covered his mouth and pulled him away.

Seeing the three people disappearing, Qin Lang smiled slightly and soon returned home with Dan Bao.

"Gudu?"

After closing the door, Dan Bao nuzzled Qin Lang's face, a curious look appeared on Dan Yuan's face.

It had already guessed that Qin Lang had an idea for the dishes for the evaluation competition the day after tomorrow.

So, what dish will it be this time?

It's curious.

"This is a very special vegetarian dish." Qin Lang said with a smile, "It's not easy to explain at the moment. How about I cook it again and you come and try it?"

"It just so happens that I need to cook a few more times to practice my skills before the game."

"Gulu!"

Dan Bao's eyes lit up instantly.

You can taste it now!

Watching Qin Lang open the refrigerator, pick out the ingredients he needed and walk into the kitchen, Dan Bao's eyes lit up and he quickly followed.

Vegetarian dishes, this is the best scenario where freshness comes into play!

Soon, one person and one spirit were busy in the kitchen.

Qin Lang didn't choose many ingredients. The main ingredients were only a large piece of winter melon and a box of tofu, and the auxiliary ingredients were also common auxiliary ingredients such as green onions, ginger, star anise, and cinnamon.

"Huh~"

Seeing the winter melon placed in front of him, Dan Bao consciously began to blow hard on it.

After so many cooking experiences, the tacit understanding between one person and one spirit has been tempered.

While Dan Bao was busy, Qin Lang gently poured the box of tofu on the chopping board to make it complete. Then he trimmed off the tougher parts on the outer surface, leaving the softer interior, and trimmed it into a regular shape with a kitchen knife. The square is divided into small squares two fingers wide.

Then, cut it into pieces of about five millimeters.

Almost at the same time that Qin Lang was handling the tofu with his knife, Dan Bao had already used his eating skills to bring the piece of winter melon with the skin into its best condition.

"Very good." When Qin Lang reached out and brought the winter melon in front of him, he noticed Dan Bao's "begging for praise" look in his eyes and gave him his own encouragement in a timely manner.

Then Dan Bao's little head suddenly started shaking up and down with excitement.

It took the initiative to fly over the onion and ginger on the side and continued to blow.

Qin Lang, on the other hand, used the knife blade to gently move the freshly cut tofu to the corner of the chopping board, placed the winter melon in the center of the chopping board, and began to peel it with a sharp knife.

The dark green skin was quickly separated from the winter melon as Qin Lang cut it with one knife after another, and fell into the trash can nearby. The light green flesh close to the skin was also separated and left by Qin Lang.

After hollowing out the center of the winter melon, a large piece of winter melon changed in Qin Lang's hands at a speed visible to the naked eye. In a few breaths, it turned into a small cube as wide as two fingers wide as the tofu just now, and was then cut into pieces by Qin Lang. It has a similar thickness to tofu slices.

"Gudu?"

Dan Bao had already finished handling the onions and ginger, and now he came over and curiously looked at the tofu slices and winter melon slices on the chopping board.

The food cut into evenly small pieces reminded him of a toy called building blocks he had seen two days ago.

What kind of vegetarian dish is this?

"Wait a minute, you'll know." Qin Lang said, putting the cut winter melon slices aside and starting to process the light green winter melon meat left behind.

These parts near the skin are harder and more flexible than the flesh inside.

After processing them into slices about the same size as tofu slices but thinner, Qin Lang made a cross knife on each green and winter melon slice, and then carefully colored them with dark soy sauce.

The light green color was smudged by the dark soy sauce in just a moment, turning into dark brown. The faint smell of soy sauce emanating from the air made Dan Bao on the side sniff.

Heat the pan and heat oil.

The oil temperature is 50% to 60% hot, and the winter melon slices colored with dark soy sauce are added one by one.

"Zi La~"

In just a moment, the water inside the winter melon boils under the hot oil, turning into countless small bubbles and escaping into the air.

The surface of the fried winter melon was a bit charred, and when picked up by the chopsticks, it swayed slightly and started to tremble with the chopsticks, creating an attractive oily sheen under the lamp.

As the internal moisture leaves during the frying process, the green and winter melon, which was originally hard and tough, looks a bit loose and soft.

Danbao's eyes widened.

How does this look a bit like...

pork skin? !
