Chapter 5 Groundbreaking mapo tofu

Coming out of the lab, Alice led the two of them to the kitchen again. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

As Lingwang opened the kitchen door, revealing the scene inside, Lu Ze was dumbfounded again.

"You...... Are you sure this is the kitchen and not the lab? Lu Ze said with a strange expression.

It's no wonder that Lu Ze asked.

At the beginning, the laboratory was said to be good, but it turned out that there was only one nanofactory inside, and this nanofactory was also used by Alice to make yogurt and tofu.

On the contrary, this kitchen is not only larger than the laboratory, except for the pots and pans that Lu Ze is familiar with in one corner, all kinds of machines that Lu Ze can't name almost occupy the entire room, and several of them are half a person high.

On the right hand side of the door, against the wall are three large two-meter-high glass cabinets standing side by side, inside which are neatly arranged with bottles and cans of different sizes.

On a huge table in the middle of the room, in addition to a few smaller machines, there are hundreds of test tubes and glass bottles containing various powders and liquids.

At first glance, this is a chemistry lab!

At this time, Alice explained: "Because of the punishment, Xingling.com will not provide me with processed ingredients, and I can only do it myself, but fortunately, these machines provide me with a lot of convenience." ”

"Even that's too exaggerated, is it just a dish, do you really need so many things?" Lu Ze couldn't help but say.

"You won't think like that when you taste my mapo tofu, you won't think like that again." Alice said and began to introduce her kitchenware to the two of them in turn: "This is the centrifuge, this is the grinder, and this is the drying oven ......."

In addition to these large machines, there are countless smaller ones, including a high-power laser with a hazard warning sign.

Lu Ze thought for a long time and didn't understand how this laser, which can be used as a weapon, is connected to food, so he asked, "What is this laser used for?" It can't be for barbecue, right? ”

"That's right." Alice took it for granted.

"Oh my God, you're not going to move all the equipment from the lab to the kitchen, are you?" Lu Ze said with admiration.

But considering that the nano-factory in Alice's lab, which is countless times more high-tech, is used to make yogurt and tofu, it doesn't seem so incredible that these ordinary devices are used by Alice as kitchen utensils.

Then Alice took the two to the glass cabinet, Lu Ze looked carefully, and saw that most of the bottles or jars in the glass cabinet contained something like plant fruits or rhizomes, adding up to nearly a thousand kinds.

Although these bottles and cans are labeled with annotations, but they are all in human language that Lu Ze can't understand, after Xingling.com synchronized the translated text into his vision through a brain-computer interface, Lu Ze quickly found the salt, chili, pepper, garlic, star anise, fennel, etc., which he was familiar with, but more of them were spices that he didn't know at all.

Of course, although Xingling.com does not provide processed ingredients, some processed seasonings are still available, and Lu Ze also found several kinds of soy sauce from the glass cabinet.

Alice said: "The research on neural uploading has come to an end, and the punishment I just received a few days ago, so I am ready to learn how to cook, so I will ask Xingling.com to prepare a copy for me like various spices and spices." As a result, I didn't expect to be sent so many ...... at once."

Lu Ze looked at these nearly a thousand kinds of spices, and he was also speechless for a while. "Didn't you check the information beforehand?"

Alice was not embarrassed at all: "Well, it's a challenge, take your time, you can always master the use of these spices." It also has the advantage that no matter what I want to cook, I won't be short of ingredients. ”

As she spoke, Alice opened a large freezer that took up half of the wall next to her, and showed the two of them all kinds of ingredients neatly arranged inside, from fruits to vegetables, from meat to seafood.

Finally, the three of them came to the platform in the center of the room, pointed to the test tubes, and Alice introduced: "Most of these test tubes are the products of my purification and processing of spices with machines such as pulverizers and centrifuges, and I am going to try to see the effect of different spice combinations." ”

There are hundreds of spices, and the possibilities of combining them are endless, although Alice thinks she is learning to cook, but looking at her posture, she is simply going to start a new era of cooking by herself.

After taking the two of them on a tour of the magical kitchen, Alice is ready to start making her mapo tofu.

Alice first took out a piece of meat from the freezer that she didn't know what kind of animal it was, then took the green onions, ginger and garlic, and then took a lot of spices that Lu Ze knew and didn't know, and took the two back to the laboratory.

Then the two of them put all the ingredients, along with the jars and jars of spices, from an opening on the side of the nanofactory.

Lu Ze was getting ready to see how Alice was going to use this nano factory to make mapo tofu, but Alice suddenly withdrew the permission of the two of them to view the cultivation space of the nano factory.

"Why don't you let us see it?" Lu Ze shouted.

"Are you sure you want to see it?" Alice said faintly, "I'm afraid you'll probably not be able to eat this process after watching it." ”

"So what the hell are you going to do?"

"It's good that I'm a transcendent and can't eat things in reality." Lu Li said happily on the side.

Of course, this does not mean that Lu Li will say goodbye to the deliciousness of food from now on, if she wants to taste food, she can directly simulate any food in the virtual world.

Alice stopped talking, and at this point her entire consciousness had entered the virtual world in order to better control the operation of the nanofactory.

Lu Ze had to wait tangled on one side, on the one hand, Alice's words made his heart furious, but on the other hand, he couldn't help but be curious.

Fortunately, the cooking time was not long, and soon Alice took out a plate from the opening where she had put the ingredients earlier, with a metal cover fastened on it.

"That's it! My 'groundbreaking mapo tofu'. Alice said excitedly, holding the plate.

"Wait a minute." Lu Ze suddenly thought of a question, "Where did you get this plate and cover?" I haven't seen you put it in before. ”

"Well, I forgot to take it from the kitchen when I came here before, and I didn't bother to go back to get it, so I just made a new plate out of the materials that were already in this nanofactory." Alice explained as she placed the plate on the table.

Lu Ze couldn't help but sigh once again at the omnipotence of the nano factory, it was less than 50 meters from this laboratory to the kitchen, and Alice actually felt that it was more convenient to make a new plate than to go to the kitchen to get it!

Looking at the plates on the table, Lu Ze was stunned.

Because the plate was covered with a metal cover, it was completely impossible to see what the food inside looked like, but since it was the food made by Alice "herself", Lu Ze had to eat it anyway.

Now I can only pray again that this is not a dark dish.

Lu Zeyi grasped the cover and was about to open it, but was held down by Alice, only to hear Alice say: "I suggest you turn on the food effect first, I promise to give you a surprise." ”

What are you doing?

Lu Ze looked shocked.

To eat something, you still have to turn on special effects first?

However, thinking of the surprise that Alice promised him, Lu Ze still did it.

"Then, then, it's time to witness the miracle!"

Alice smiled and slowly lifted the hood.

A dazzling golden light burst out from the gap that had just been uncovered in an instant, and both Lu Ze and Lu Li had to squint their eyes and stretch out their hands to block it.

"This ...... Could it be the legendary ...... The light of gastronomy? ”

Knowing that this was the visual effects brought by the brain-computer interface, Lu Ze still asked very cooperatively.

As Alice lifted the hood completely, the golden light that erupted from the plate was like a small sun.

Wrong!

It's twelve little suns!

Although the golden light was dazzling, the more this was the case, the more Lu Ze couldn't help but look towards the golden light, wanting to see what was on the plate, but he could only see twelve balls of light.

After a long time, the golden light gradually dissipated, revealing the contents of the plate, and suddenly there were twelve white balls the size of a ping-pong ball, which were as clear as night pearls.

"It's ...... Mapo tofu? Lu Ze said in surprise.

Mapo tofu used to be a traditional famous dish in Sichuan, China, which paid attention to the eight characters of numb, spicy, hot, fragrant, crispy, tender, fresh and live, among which fresh and live are the requirements for appearance, and must be red, white and green.

Although Lu Ze was surprised that Alice could make tofu into a round ball, there were only twelve spoons with round balls on the entire plate, except for the twelve white tofu balls, so it couldn't be considered mapo tofu.

"Nope." Alice smiled and shook her head, "This is 'groundbreaking mapo tofu', you can taste it and know it." ”

So Lu Ze picked up a spoon and looked at the round ball dangling in the spoon, Lu Ze was really afraid that this tofu would be accidentally broken.

He didn't think much about it anymore and took a bite of it.

In an instant-

The universe exploded!

It looks like a white ball, but that's because Alice has wrapped all the flavors that mapo tofu should have in this ball, just like the chaos before the heavens and the earth were opened.

And the moment Lu Ze took a bite, he seemed to be incarnated into a giant who stood up to the sky, and with an axe, he split the chaos, and the infinite delicacy bred in the chaos also exploded in an instant, impacting his taste and soul!

This sensation has transcended the enjoyment of taste and sublimated the soul with it!
