Chapter 70: Cream, Steak and the Return of the Beauty

The method of seafood bisque is relatively simple, but for the current food and beverage industry, which needs to explore the way forward, it is not possible to develop a complete form in a short period of time.

The choice of seafood used in the soup is relatively wide, but according to Anduin's speculation, the root cause of the taste conflict in Gordon's seafood soup should be the lack of a main ingredient that acts as a lubricant, and it is worth mentioning that this main ingredient has not been widely used in the Holy Empire, but its processed products are increasingly appearing on the table.

The name of this ingredient is cream, and its processed product is called butter.

Anduin didn't understand why this was happening, but at this moment, he didn't have the time to delve into the problem, and immediately went to check the formation of the cream. The cream used in the seafood soup is caused by the gravity of time to make the lower density of the fat float on the upper layer, which is more primitive and cannot ensure the purity of the cream, let alone extract a large amount, but Anduin, which lacks centrifugal tools at hand, can only settle for the second.

At this time, Anduin had to wonder when Sonia would bring in the dwarf engineer, especially before she left, Jenny Turtle used the turtle shell to divinate the strange sight, so he was always reassured, and instead picked up a certain little guy sleeping on the pizza, and said viciously: "Look at your dirty appearance, wash your apron yourself in a moment!" ”

Jenny opened his eyes in a daze, burped beautifully, and had a pizza that he couldn't finish eating, so that he was simply enjoying a heavenly treat, immersed in the aroma, and couldn't help but fall asleep, and the mini apron was stained with ketchup and cheese, which made him laugh embarrassedly.

"What's so funny?"

"People think it's good here, and they don't want to go back."

"You're just a dou who can't be helped......"

"Who is Adou?"

Anduin didn't answer, but just threw Jenny Turtle into the sink and washed the sauce a little, which allowed it to tell Sonia's whereabouts.

The little turtle, who was well fed and asleep, did not protest again, shook off the water droplets on his body, and then twisted his butt and ran towards the turtle shell, and in the strange light of the Dao runes, a figure immediately appeared, Anduin raised his eyebrows, because this figure was not Sonia, but a short dwarf wearing engineering glasses, and the other party was driving a powerful mechanical chariot, shuttling through the wind and snow.

Presumably, this is the dwarf engineer invited by Sonia, if this wind chariot is made by him, it will definitely be able to meet Anduin's design needs, as for how much the other party will ask, he doesn't care, anyway, it is far cheaper than exchanging the three hundred crystals of [Master Craftsman Taray].

Although he couldn't see Sonia directly, Anduin was relieved that only the white light that represented peace was left in the end, and he estimated that he would be able to return safely in the near future, so he ignored the matter and divided the extracted cream into two parts, one part for the seafood soup, and the other part for further processing to make the final cake dessert.

It wasn't until Van Cleef mentioned that the last dessert at the Silver Hotel was honey cake, and he remembered that there was no honey at hand, and it happened that the seafood soup needed light cream, so he simply replaced the final dessert with a cream cake.

In this regard, Anduin's expression was rather depressed, not because the cream cake and the honey cake were higher or lower, nor because he couldn't fully overpower the Silver Hotel, but because whipping cream was not only a technical job, but also a physical job.

In the absence of an automatic whisk, Anduin needs to use chopsticks to rotate in one direction for a long time, during which in addition to adding fresh milk and sugar a few times, he can only continue this action in a loop, if Sonia is there, the two can still alternate, but now even if his arm is sore, he can only grit his teeth and insist.

As for why Gourmet No. 1 didn't help, it was naturally because it had a more important task on its shoulders, making the famous dry-aged steak, and how popular was this kind of beef ranking? Warren Buffett, the god of stocks, once said during a meal: "If I can't eat it on Friday, maybe I can't predict the direction of the future economy." ”

Although this is a joke, it shows the special thing about dry-aged steak.

This type of steak is usually made from the finest rib-eye steak and is air-dried for at least seven days before it can be used for cooking. During this period, the colour of the beef gradually darkens, and the connective tissues tend to soften, evaporating water and making the beef more mellow.

During the Winter Veil feast, some beef that was not suitable for hot pot was left, and Anduin wanted to take this opportunity to air dry a batch, so he also asked Van Cleef to urgently build a special inclined constant temperature room, when drying, put the area with more oil on top, so that the fat melted and dipped into the meat along the slope, so as to ensure that the precious meat juice remained in the beef to the greatest extent.

In fact, air-drying for seven days is just the minimum, and if you want to better reflect the flavor of beef, it will take longer, but fortunately, although there are many convenient tools in this world, the Hearthstone Hotel, which is controlled by the system, can use electricity to enhance the air-drying effect, so although the old man can't eat the air-dried steak, he can also appreciate its excellent flavor.

Gourmet No. 1 took the air-dried beef, and instead of immediately performing dazzling knife work, he first peeled off the fat layer on the periphery and the parts containing mold by hand. This mold does not cause beef lesions, but instead produces beneficial proteases, which, together with the enzymes present in the beef itself, double hydrolyze muscle fibers and collagen, making the beef texture more tender.

After the removal is completed, Gourmet No. 1 uses a knife to cut off the excess fat layer until the meat and white fat of the steak are revealed, and then the preparation is completed.

Jenny Turtle, who was lying next to him, looked at it with round eyes, and asked in a milky voice, "Lord Anduin, can you eat a little?" ”

"Can't!"

Due to the sore arm, Anduin's attitude was a little bad: "The first batch of air-dried top-quality steaks, there are not a few pieces left, you eat it, what will you and Sister Sonia and I eat?" ”

Jenny Turtle complained a little dejectedly: "You are a child laborer, and people will sue you." ”

"I said it was good here, and I don't want to eat pizza anymore?"

"I want to ......," Jenny replied, his eyes lingering on the steak, "but people want to eat this, too." ”

Anduin looked at the way it was about to cry, and smiled angrily: "Okay, okay, I've served you, just this once, not as an example, when your sister Sonia comes back, I will give you food." ”

"Then you can do it now!"

A voice came slowly, Anduin turned around suddenly, only to find a graceful figure leaning against the door, who else could it be if it wasn't Sonia?

[Strange! 】

"How?"

[I didn't notice Sonia's appearance at all!] 】

"Hmmm......"

Anduin put away the smile on his face and looked at Sonia suspiciously, seeing that she couldn't help but exit the door, only showing an angry face: "What are you looking at?" ”

"It looks like it's supposed to be true."

[I didn't say it was fake, but after a preliminary scan, I found that the shadow energy on her body had increased a lot. 】

"So, it has something to do with the black glow of the prophecy?"

[You just ask? 】

"Ahem!" Anduin cleared his throat and chuckled softly, "It's nothing, I just think you've changed a little." ”

Sonia stood back to the door with confidence, tilted her head and said, "It is worthy of the famous incarnation of holy light, you can actually see it at a glance, do you remember Jenny Turtle's prophecy?" A black shadow appeared in the white light representing peace, and it was actually a problem that I suddenly figured out, and the shadow origin was slightly improved. ”

Then, Sonia spread out her palm, a black shadow gradually emerged, and then formed the appearance of Jenny Turtle, although the appearance is more miniature, but can see all the details, Anduin's eyelids jumped, Sonia turned her hand back, and smiled a little excitedly: "Although I can't use the holy light to generate real items like you, I believe that sooner or later, I can also reach this level!" ”

[Hmm......]

"Hmmm......"

Anduin's face showed a strange look, and he couldn't help but look at the card description of [Shadow Dancer Sonia]: "Shadow Dancer Sonia has full potential, and the host can produce special effects if it is carefully trained. ”

Although the special effect had not yet appeared, Anduin felt that it was already eight or nine years old, and he couldn't help but wonder, he just casually pulled out the banner of holy light, and Sonia could really figure out a specific method, this can't be regarded as full of potential, right? It's amazing!

Seeing Anduin's expression, Sonia's mood was extremely wonderful, she gently held Jenny Turtle in her hand, and said with great affection: "Little turtle, you let my sister find a way, and my sister will never let someone bully you in the future." ”

The little turtle just wanted to cheer, but when he saw the dangerous glint in Anduin's eyes, he had to say timidly: "Lord Anduin is very good, well, very good......"
