Noticing her friend's return, Lu Jingyi immediately put down the snacks in her hand and greeted her with a smile: "You're back? How does it smell?"
When asked about roasting a turkey, Xia Yuqing seemed a little confused and asked, "But I don't seem to have the right equipment at home."
In fact, it is not easy to cook such a large dish without suitable kitchen utensils.
Just as everyone was worried about this, Chu Jinghong temporarily stopped what he was doing, wiped the grease off his hands with a clean towel, and explained softly, "Actually, there's no need to worry too much. Really good cooking never relies on modern kitchen equipment.
Although technology is advancing rapidly in modern society, many traditional cooking methods are slowly disappearing.
People are increasingly accustomed to relying on technology to prepare food, but often lose the original wonderful taste of the food.
For example, if this high-quality free-range chicken is not cooked with exquisite craftsmanship, it will be bland even if the presentation is beautiful.”
"You're saying... you can make a delicious turkey without an oven? Is there any other way to accomplish it besides using an appliance?"
After hearing these words, Xia Yuqing's interest was greatly aroused, and she was eager to know more.
Lu Jingyi looked at him with eyes wide open, her eyes full of questions, as if asking: "What?"
Chu Jinghong calmly took out an inconspicuous matchbox from the inner pocket of his clothes.
He flicked the small box lightly with his finger, and after a "click" sound, a match jumped out as if it was given life.
What was strange was that the match did not burn immediately when it flew out. Instead, it was like a small magical light spot that stayed in the air for a short time before quickly igniting a bright flame.
Then, as if an invisible hand guided the flame directly and accurately ignited the turkey that had been carefully marinated and waited for a long time.
The moment it comes into contact with the meat, the whole dish seems to suddenly come alive and become the focus of a visual art exhibition.
First, there was a dazzling golden glow, then it changed into a gentle blue-green flame like water, and finally evolved into an enchanting deep purple luster.
The process is like a wonderful performance, which is amazing.
At the same time, the sound of oil bursting when heated can be clearly heard in the air, like a symphony exclusive to food.
Although these rays of light are radiant, they are very restrained and do not expand aimlessly. Instead, they wrap every inch of the chicken very evenly, as if covering the roasted bird with a delicate and smooth coat, quietly guiding it to perfection.
Soon after, the tempting aroma spread, teasing people's taste buds.
As those magical colors slowly faded until they were completely extinguished, Chu Jinghong skillfully picked up the spray bottle prepared at hand and gently sprinkled a few drops of cold water on the turkey that had just been roasted and was still steaming.
"Hiss" - a slight steaming sound was heard, and a richer smell began to fill the entire room.
"Oh my God! This is so wonderful!"
Lu Jingyi finally couldn't contain her curiosity, so she immediately ran over and impatiently pulled off the largest and thickest leg from the turkey and returned to the corner to enjoy it.
As she savored the tender, juicy, and slightly charred food, she exclaimed in praise, "Oh, it's so delicious! It's simply irresistible!"
But then a puzzled look crossed his face as he asked, "How can it be so delicious without resorting to conventional methods? If you had such advanced techniques, opening a restaurant would surely be incredibly popular."
