Chapter 41: First Taste (Part II)

While Lao Lin was processing the ingredients, Tang Chen began to process the main ingredients.

The ferocious wild boar is a second-grade spirit animal, with rough skin and thick meat, digging food from the tip of the nose, they have developed canine teeth, have brute strength, and have an extremely violent and aggressive temperament. Fierce wild boars live in groups, male wild boars often fight each other, the fight is more fierce during the breeding period, when the enemy is met head-on, the scene of dozens of fierce wild boars charging collectively is spectacular, often scaring off the spirit beasts that are higher than them.

Relying on this brutal energy, there is a place for ferocious wild boars in many worlds.

Wild boar has been stored in the ice cellar for a long time, and it is inevitable that it will be downgraded, and it is just a food.

The aura in the ingredients will be lost with the preservation time, and the longer the preservation time, the less aura in the ingredients. Although the refiners came up with various ways to preserve the aura in the ingredients, they could only alleviate the rate of aura loss and could not avoid it at all.

After thawing, Tang Chen took a literary knife from the kitchen rack and quickly cut the wild boar meat into small pieces.

His movements were precise and quick, and the movement of the blade cutting through the pieces of meat was continuous and steady, and soon a plate of wild boar meat two fingers square was cut. Tang Chen put the writing knife aside, and opened the deerskin bag next to the kitchen shelf, inside were more than a dozen carving knives of different sizes, lengths and shapes, each carving knife was made of fine iron, delicate and small.

Tang Chen took a knife.

He picked out a piece of meat, his eyes narrowed and he looked at it carefully, and his expression was serious.

Next comes the crucial step: Spiritual Surge.

The spirit beast can automatically absorb the spiritual energy in the heaven and earth to refine the body, and a part of the spiritual power will naturally be left in the body, and over the years, the spiritual power in the spirit beast's body is more and more, and it is more and more condensed. The monks have long discovered that spirit beasts, like demons and demons, are naturally affinity with spiritual energy, and it is easier to retain spiritual power in their bodies.

What Tang Chen had to do was to disperse the spiritual power in his flesh so that his body could absorb it better.

The carving knife is lightly inserted into the piece of meat, and after 1 inch of the meat, it is quickly withdrawn before it falls.

The knife rose and fell like a dragonfly dotting water, and soon the upward side of the meat piece had been inserted into many small holes by the knife, Tang Chen flipped the meat piece with his left hand, and repeated the previous work on the other side. Whenever the tip of the knife came into contact with the piece of meat, Tang Chen's spiritual power acted on the piece of meat through the carving knife, and the piece of meat near the contact point trembled slightly, and the aura hidden in the flesh was stirred.

A small piece of wild boar meat was quickly processed, and Tang Chen picked out another piece.

This step tests the refiner's precise control ability, every time the knife comes into contact with the piece of meat, it needs to inject an appropriate amount of spiritual power at the right time, and control the spiritual power to vibrate evenly. It seems simple, but it actually requires a high degree of mental concentration, each piece of meat requires spiritual power to stir nearly a hundred times, and after processing more than a dozen pieces of wild boar meat in a row, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Tang Chen's forehead.

He stopped, took a towel and wiped it on his face, and sighed in his heart: "I don't know the distribution of spiritual power in the meat block, I can only deal with all the places, although it is very good for improving the control of spiritual power, but it is really a waste of time, it is really painful..."

Tang Chen knew that this was related to his unfamiliarity with the food village.

Experienced refiners can roughly determine the parts with the most abundant spiritual energy, thus greatly shortening the range of spiritual energy stirring ingredients. Tang Chen was still a novice, so he could only use this stupid method to ensure that the aura of the ingredients was fully stirred, but the price was time.

"I feel like I'm blind......"

Tang Chen put down the towel, and he suddenly froze.

A flash of inspiration flashed in his eyes, and his eyes opened.

Green fluorescence appeared again in his line of sight, and Tang Chen couldn't wait to cast his gaze on the piece of meat, and the light green light that meandered and stretched was clearly visible.

Lingmu can really see the aura veins in the ingredients!

With the assistance of spiritual eyes, Tang Chen could accurately find out the spiritual energy veins in the ingredients, and accurately stir them, not only did the workload be greatly reduced, but the effect of spiritual power agitation was only stronger than before.

The spiritual power stirring step, which was originally the most time-consuming and energy-consuming, was completed with ease.

After Lao Lin finished processing the ingredients, he stood aside and watched Tang Chen process the main ingredients.

He had seen others refining food before, and found that Tang Chen's handling method was not quite the same as what he had seen, especially the spiritual power stirring step, in his opinion, Tang Chen's method was simply sloppy. He wasn't sure why Tang Chen did this, so he tried to say something, pretending to be curious: "Master Xiao Tang, the previous refining master, this step usually takes a long time, can you do it a few times like this?"

"Well, I guess it's about the same. ”

Let Lao Lin cry and laugh.

It's about the same, what is this called?

Is it to prevent being stolen by yourself, or is it simply indiscriminate?

Compared with other refiners, Tang Chen was too young, not like a master of refining, so ......

As soon as he thought of this, Lao Lin secretly felt bad in his heart.

"Master Xiao Tang is amazing! How long does it take to refine the spiritual food to be so proficient?"

"This is my first official refining. ”

"For the first time?"

"Hmm. ”

Lao Lin's face suddenly turned red, thinking that he was the chief chef of Shunfeng Building, accompanying the smiling face to help a teenager, didn't he just want to steal a teacher to learn some skills? Unexpectedly, this guy was actually a novice, wouldn't he look like a fool just now? Lao Lin pointed at Tang Chen with his finger, and there were a thousand words in his heart, but in the end, he couldn't say a word, gritted his teeth and staggered away.

Tang Chen didn't notice Lao Lin's abnormality, and after processing the ingredients, he immediately began to refine the spiritual food.

There was a ready-made method of refining spiritual food, and the next steps were familiar to Tang Chen, who had rich cooking experience, and he quickly threw various ingredients and raw materials into the pot.

"After the lemon fruit oil is fried, add the same amount of roe deer oil, and when the smoke rises, the wild boar meat is served..."

"Add yellow leaf mushrooms, herbs, and orchid leaves in order to further stimulate the aura in wild boar..."

"Two spoons of old soup, covered, simmer for half a column of fragrant time..."

"Add seasonings, pour wisteria juice, lock in the aura in the ingredients..."

In the lobby of Shunfeng Building, the fat man began to become impatient, and squinted at Shopkeeper Hong and said, "I said Shopkeeper Hong, it's not easy to eat spiritual food here with you, shouldn't you still be looking for someone to buy ingredients!"

"I'm going to urge Boss Niu. Shopkeeper Hong got up and left.

When I returned to the kitchen, I happened to see Lao Lin leaning against the door and sighing.

"What's wrong?" asked Shopkeeper Hong, leaning over.

"The person you invited can't do it, I don't think he knows how to refine food at all. ”

"I know, if he doesn't understand. ”

"You know?"

Lao Lin looked at Shopkeeper Hong strangely and said, "Then do you know that he is tasting." ”

"It's normal to taste, you can only season after you taste it..."

Lao Lin said expressionlessly: "He has tasted it 11 times, and now it is the 12th time, and at least a third of the ferocious wild boar has entered his stomach." He seems to be ready to continue 'tasting'..."

Shopkeeper Hong wiped a handful of sweat, he didn't mind Tang Chen stealing food, just because Tang Chen was introduced by Yan Haoran, it was nothing to invite him to eat some spiritual food, but Boss Niu was still waiting outside, and it would not work if it continued like this.

Shopkeeper Hong hurriedly walked in: "Master Xiao Tang, have you finished refining?"

"Almost. ”

Tang Chen reluctantly put down the long chopstick, wiped the back of his hand on his mouth, but his mouth was full of oil, but he didn't wipe it clean.

"Then let's get out of the pot, the guests are still waiting. ”

"Good!"

Tang Chen shoveled the spiritual food into the deep dish, and then he was embarrassed.

The portion size is clearly insufficient......

Shopkeeper Hong knew this, didn't break it, walked to the desk and sniffed it, showing a satisfied look: "The color and fragrance are good, just looking at the appearance is good!

Rao is Tang Chen was thick-skinned, and he couldn't help but be embarrassed: "The first time I refined food, I was a little uncertain. ”

"It's okay! I'm getting experienced. Shopkeeper Hong walked to the small pool next to him, scooped up a shallow plate, and turned the ferocious wild boar meat in the deep plate, and the problem of insufficient spiritual food was easily covered. Shopkeeper Hong smiled at Tang Chen, and personally took the plate and Shi Shiran left.

After Shopkeeper Hong left, Tang Chen sighed, "I didn't see anything. ”

However, he clearly knew that the shallow plate that Shopkeeper Hong had just replaced was a dirty plate that had not been cleaned after recycling...

Shopkeeper Hong was in a very good mood, and his good mood made his pace a little brisker.

He came to the lobby and put the plate in front of the fat man: "Here comes the spiritual food." ”

The fat man looked at him suspiciously, and said, "When did the shopkeeper personally serve the food in Shunfeng Building?"

"Boss Niu is a distinguished guest, please use it slowly. ”

The fat man stretched out his hand, picked up a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.

Suddenly, he froze there.
