Chapter 296 A novel and interesting self-cooking mode, easily making the same spicy hot pot as the m
Bai Mengran praised as she ate, "Mmm, delicious, delicious! Yiyi's spicy hot pot is just as good as a professional chef's! It's incredibly tasty!"
As for Kong Nishang, she was originally the first to start selecting ingredients because she had gotten in through connections.
But she was a complete indecisive person. Faced with a dazzling array of ingredients, she spent a long time picking and choosing, but still couldn't make up her mind.
She finally chose her ingredients and slowly went to her seat after Da Tou and the others had already eaten half of their food.
Seeing that there was a self-cooking mode available, the curious Kong Nishang naturally chose it without hesitation.
Then, following the instructions, she obediently sat down in her seat, eagerly waiting for the ingredients to be delivered.
Unexpectedly, after she found a two-person table and sat down, the specially made tabletop slowly opened its lid, revealing a built-in cooking pot specifically for hot pot.
At the same time, an interface resembling a game control screen lit up on the dining table in front of them.
"Next, please follow the instructions to cook a super delicious bowl of mala tang yourself!"
Kong Nishang found it extremely amusing, and with her fists clenched, she confidently replied, "Okay!"
"The icons that light up at the bottom of the screen correspond to each ingredient you ordered."
Please click the icons in order of cooking time indicated to add the ingredients to the pot.
As soon as she finished speaking, two rows of food icons appeared on the desktop control panel, which were all the dishes that Kong Nishang had just selected.
"The key to good taste is the soup base. Please click on [Add Secret Soup Base] to complete the first step."
"That's easy," Kong Nishang listened attentively and quickly found the operation button and clicked it.
The secret-recipe broth was indeed slowly rising from the bottom of the pot...
"Haha, this is too easy," she couldn't help but mutter to herself.
"The soup base is about to boil. Please add the following first: potatoes, meatballs, chicken gizzards, lobster balls, crab roe buns, and egg dumplings..."
As soon as the notification sound rang, Kong Nishang frantically searched for the ingredient buttons on the control panel, her mind racing with anxiety, afraid that she might accidentally press the wrong one.
"Ah~ where's the crab roe bun... Oh, here it is!"
The self-cooking experience is actually similar to a relaxing and fun cooking game. It mainly allows customers to immerse themselves in the process and experience the operation. It does not actually require strict cooking step by step, so the cooking time is basically sped up.
"Next, please add [crab sticks], [luncheon meat], [orchid skewers], [thin sheets], [instant noodles], and [beef rolls]..."
"Finally, please add the lettuce, garland chrysanthemum, and fried dough sticks..."
"Please click in the following order: [Add Seasoning], [Add Mild Spicy], [Add Minced Garlic], [Add Minced Cilantro], [Add Sesame Paste]..."
"Alright, congratulations! Your delicious homemade spicy hot pot is now ready! It'll be served in a bowl soon, so enjoy the fruits of your labor!"
After that, Kong Nishang no longer needed to do anything.
Before she could even see what was happening, a large bowl slid over from the side, and the freshly cooked spicy hot pot was instantly transferred into the bowl.
"Oh, it must be some magical spell again! But it's so much fun! I feel like my eyes have already learned it, and I really think I can cook spicy hot pot now..."
Seeing a big bowl full of mala tang that she had participated in the entire cooking process, Kong Nishang felt an overwhelming sense of accomplishment and couldn't wait to taste it.
However, seeing that she had ordered too much again, Kong Nishang was wondering how to eat it when she saw that Sister Bai seemed to have finished her work, so she quickly waved to Sister Bai.
"Sister Bai, come and eat this bowl of spicy hot pot with me! I accidentally ordered a little too much again..."
Hehe, but I cooked this myself, so you should try it and see how it tastes!
Bai Mengran looked at the huge bowl of spicy hot pot in front of the greedy girl and sighed helplessly.
"This bowl is so big, I'm afraid the two of us can't finish it... Yiyi, have you forgotten? I was planning to invite your dad and the others, including you, to lunch! If you eat all this, do you think you'll still have room to eat later?"
Upon hearing this, Kong Nishang's face flashed with a hint of innocence and guilt. She pouted, secretly regretting that she had ordered too much, which was indeed a waste.
She looked up at me with a pitiful expression and asked for my help: "Sister Bai, what should we do?"
Seeing her innocent and aggrieved little face, Bai Mengran couldn't bear to let the child blame herself.
"Let's eat first and think of something later..."
"Oh, okay, I'll listen to Sister Bai!" Kong Nishang smiled like a flower as soon as she heard that she could eat it. "Hey, actually I was almost dying of craving it when it was being cooked just now. It smelled so good!"
The two of them each took a small bowl from the cutlery machine, and then used a serving spoon to scoop out the ingredients they wanted to eat into their bowls.
Then, I scooped up a few more spoonfuls of the slightly reddish broth with a hint of spiciness before savoring it.
With a lively expression, Kong Nishang casually picked up a crab roe bun and cautiously took a bite.
But with that one bite, "biu!" the crab roe filling burst open in my mouth...
She quickly stuck out her tongue and licked the soup that had accidentally splashed onto her lips, her eyes sparkling with surprise as she exclaimed in delight:
"Wow, this little pointy bun is so delicious! It's bursting with juice, and there are so many little seeds in it. It's so sweet and delicious!"
Just this one randomly picked crab roe dumpling, coated in a rich and fragrant bone broth, with a perfectly balanced hint of spiciness, was enough to amaze Kong Nishang, who was experiencing the deliciousness of mala tang for the first time.
Next, she tried the equally juicy beef balls, the chewy lobster balls, the sweet and savory crab sticks, and the braised chicken feet that fell off the bone with a single bite...
There are also several other ingredients that have absorbed the broth and become delicious and flavorful, such as winter melon, lettuce, garland chrysanthemum, enoki mushrooms, and fried dough sticks...
Almost every time she tried a new ingredient, Kong Nishang would nod her head and sway her head in delight, unable to resist praising it as "delicious."
After mentioning it several times, she realized that there seemed to be no food she didn't like, and she was running out of things to say when praising it!
Bai Mengran, who has been tasting mala tang for many years, felt that the mala tang in front of her was a little lacking in spiciness and not spicy enough, but its taste was still enough to surpass all the mala tang she had ever eaten before.
Most importantly, she could truly taste that the soup base of this mala tang was not made with those technologies and rudimentary techniques, but was actually carefully simmered with real ingredients.
After eating it, you won't feel incredibly thirsty like you would after eating some spicy hot pot.
This reminded her that even in modern times, many chain stores don't use broth made from freshly brewed stock...
Later, Bai Mengran discovered a small mala tang (spicy hot pot) shop run by a husband and wife near her home, and saw with her own eyes that their soup base was made by simmering fresh pork bones for more than three hours every day.
From then on, whenever she wanted to eat mala tang (a spicy hot pot dish), she would stick to this small but clean and tidy shop.
She also heard the proprietress complain that some customers, used to the noodle soup full of additives, complained that their homemade soup base was not fresh enough. The proprietress's words were full of helplessness.
Bringing her thoughts back to the present, she is fortunate that the food produced by the system always prioritizes food safety, making it both healthy and delicious, giving her peace of mind when eating.
This kind of food is a true pleasure to eat!
