Chapter Fifty-Eight: Half-Cooked Beef Beyond the Norm

"Neva!"

Antonieva had just come out of the kitchen when he heard a voice behind him, turned his head, and saw Yumeng standing a little panting at the entrance to the promenade in Area D.

The girl is holding a large pile of bread in a strange position, and a large piece of frozen beef in her right hand, which looks a little funny.

"So many?! Did you really pay for the little salted fish? ”

As for whether Yumeng could buy bread at that store, Antoniva didn't have too many doubts in his heart.

The uniform of the special department of the Yurassis Academy alone is the most powerful pass, but whenever the residents of this city encounter it, they will never be too harsh.

But she also knew that at only nine o'clock, she might be able to buy a piece or two of shriveled couscous.

In short, it is absolutely impossible to buy such a large handful of bread. Not to mention such a large piece of processed raw beef, which was probably just enough even with the points that Otilia had been deducted.

"Mm-hmm, a good harvest. Met a very kind old man. ”

Youmeng wanted to reach out and scratch her cheek, but as soon as her hand was halfway up, she found that the bread in her arms was showing signs of slipping, so she had to give up and stand there with a smirk on her face.

"Wow, that's a lot! You're so good! Otilia leaped out from behind Antoneva with her eyes shining brightly, and threw herself at Yumoe with her arms outstretched.

"Hey, Ollie, don't grab it, wait until there's enough to eat."

Trying to clinch his arm to block Otilia's hand, Yumeng looked curiously at the two people who walked out of the kitchen, "By the way, how did you get it?" ”

"I didn't have the luck, I didn't see the ingredients, and the seasoning was only a little salt and sugar. But......" Antoneva stood behind him, smiling and letting the two of them fight, raising the plum wine in his hand with a gentle look in his eyes, "I found a pot of early summer flavor." ”

"Plum wine...... It's really the taste of early summer. ”

Youmeng glanced at the green plum soaked in the glass bottle in Antoneva's hand, "It seems like a waste to drink like this." ”

After a moment of silence, Yumeng turned to look at Otilia who was trying to pull the bread away from her arms, "Ollie, I remember you said that there was still some salt in the kitchen, right?" ”

"Huh?" Otilia nodded inexplicably.

"You want to cook that piece of beef." Antonieva looked at the raw beef in Yumeng's hand and shook his head, "But you can't do anything with only salt." And the steak and plum wine don't go well. ”

Youmeng raised her eyebrows and smiled confidently, "Who told you that beef can only be used for steaks." Next, you just have to wait quietly for the miracle to happen. ”

As the king of red meat, myoglobin-rich beef is mostly cooked in a warm way, that is, fried or grilled, and paired with red wine. In this respect, the plum wine, which is actually more of a cold type of cuisine, does not match the characteristics of beef.

However, in her previous life, she had seen a Japanese style method in many Japanese restaurants that perfectly matched the taste of plum wine, and that was half-boiled beef.

The core method is to quickly fry the beef marinated with fine salt until the surface changes color and lock the juice, then put it in the oven for a short time to heat it to let the flavor penetrate into the inner layer of the meat, and then quickly cool and slice it.

"However, in the world full of spiritual power here, the process can be further simplified."

Standing in front of a whole piece of freshly thawed raw beef, pouring salt into the palm of his hand, Youmeng used a knife and fork to slightly cut the raw beef in front of him, condensed his spiritual power and slapped it downward.

Countless white salt grains seemed to have gained life, wrapped in the spiritual power of the Youmeng palm, penetrating the thick muscle fibers of the beef, and blending evenly and perfectly into the meat.

【Salted Fish Spike - Change: Pickling Acceleration】

"Wow, you've actually learned to integrate your combat skills into your spirit kitchen skills to hone them?"

Otilia on the side was surprised to see Youmeng use her spiritual power to evenly beat the refined salt into the beef in front of her, although the spiritual power that flashed was very weak, and she would never admit that familiar spiritual skill fluctuations.

Antoneva's eyes changed slightly when he was standing at the door of the kitchen, could he develop the secondary form of his skills on the second day after awakening his spiritual power combat skills?!

- How talented is this kid?

Feeling the look of surprise and admiration coming from behind, Youmeng tried to calm the excitement in her heart, and said lightly, "Don't worry, I said, you just need to be quiet and watch." And that's just the beginning. ”

Sure enough, did she finally find the right way to open her abilities as the protagonist, just cook and cook, it's better than nothing.

The next step is to heat up the roasted beef until it is half-cooked.

Yumeng spread out his left hand, aimed at the steak, recalled the posture of Lucardo in the previous afternoon, and confidently focused on reading aloud, "Spirit: Ember! ”

…… Nothing happened......

Sure enough, are there any other spell casting skills, Youmeng pursed her lips, then it is better to follow the normal method, and go to the fire to roast and fry the surface to lock the juice.

Thinking back to the spiritual power fluctuations of Antoneva and Otilia before, Yumeng gathered the spiritual power in his hand, grabbed the wrist of his right hand with his left hand, and put his right index finger and middle finger together into a sword and led upward, shouting: "Get up!" ”

…… Nothing happened......

"Huh?" Youmeng scratched her cheeks in embarrassment, as if the wild fox Zen had failed, it seemed that she still had to go to school honestly.

Turning around helplessly, he looked at Antoneva, who couldn't bear to look at him directly, and smiled shyly. "That, Sister Neva, this meat is too big, see if you can help me use my spiritual power to cook the surface of this meat, or help me move it to the oven over there. Well, yes, two minutes will do. ”

After thinking about it and looking at her thin wrist, Yumeng turned her head and blinked, and said to Otilia, "Ollie, I think I still need your help to wait for this roasted beef to be frozen, and then use your sharp ice blade to cut the beef slices." ”

Otilia shook her head happily with her arms crossed, and said in a long voice, "That's not good, I'm still quietly watching the miracle be born." ”

Finally, I was able to win back a city, the blonde Xiaoice girl thought to herself.

Rolling her eyes, Otilia added, "Unless, I said please help me, dear Sister Otilia." ”

"Please help me, dear Sister Otilia!" Without hesitating for even a second, Youmeng replied very naturally.

It's just the name of the district, and at this level, even the SAN value won't drop.

?! The expression on Otilia's face froze, although she won, but this inexplicable feeling of loss is why.

Some snorted reluctantly, and the blonde Xiaoice girl obediently stepped forward, carefully manipulated the ice blade and began to cut the beef.

Slices of ice slicing beef are neatly stacked on the prepared empty plate.

Youmeng reached out curiously, took a slice and put it in her mouth, and her eyes lit up suddenly.

"Hmm, perfect!"

Because she gave up the use of salting, she instead used her spiritual power and her own salt affinity ability to evenly beat the refined salt into the meat, so that no excess water soaked into the beef to affect the taste of the fiber.

After the whole piece is heated, it is rapidly cooled by Otilia's cold ice spiritual power, and the gravy in the beef is firmly locked in the center, and condenses towards the middle half-life, forming a red precipitation band, which is particularly beautiful.

After a simple grilling and marinating, the beef barely smells fishy, and the refreshing beef flakes with a hint of ice crystals melt in your mouth, and the thick gravy in the center bursts out with just the right amount of salty flavor.

"Is this the charm of this world? When the spiritual power is combined with the cooking skills of the ingredients, the enjoyment that produces is almost qualitative?! ”

Only in this world can you do it, simple and extremely luxurious half-cooked beef.

Licking her upper lip, Youmeng closed her eyes and savored the wonderful meat taste in her mouth.

At this time, all you need is a glass of plum wine with ice, which can be said to be the most luxurious enjoyment of the tongue at night in early summer.
