Ouyang Qian didn't know what the problem was. He had clearly put a lot of effort into making the dish, but the final taste was so strange.
However, Ouyang Qian's guilt lessened a little when Nan Xiangwan said he had a way to turn this dish into something useful.
They had all experienced the horrors of the apocalypse, so of course they knew how precious food was.
So even if he makes the food taste terrible, he has to eat it, otherwise how can he justify all the experiences he's had along the way?
When Nan Xiangwan brought out the bowl of scrambled eggs with tomatoes again, Ouyang Qian was stunned.
"This smells different!"
Ouyang Qian glanced at Nangong Chen and Ye Chaoqun beside him. He really didn't know where the problem lay, because he saw that the seasonings Nan Xiangwan had been using were actually the same as the ones he had used.
However, although the food he made smelled very good, there was a strange smell mixed in with the aroma.
The scrambled eggs with tomatoes that Nan Xiangwan made tasted just as normal as the ones he had eaten before.
Nan Xiangwan smiled and said, "Because you just used these seasonings over there, right?"
As she spoke, Nan Xiangwan picked up several condiment bottles from the side.
Ouyang Qian then said in shock, "Aren't the seasonings in these two cups the same?"
"I used this pot just now, so it was more convenient for me. Is there a difference between the seasonings here and those over there?"
Nan Xiangwan silently exhaled, then pushed his newly prepared tomato and egg stir-fry in front of everyone and began to explain.
"You guys eat first, and see how it tastes!"
Since the food had already been presented to them, Nangong Chen and Ye Chaoqun naturally wouldn't refuse.
Nangong Chen had eaten scrambled eggs with tomatoes before, but since the apocalypse, he had never tasted the flavor of his hometown that he remembered.
I just took a bite of Ouyang Qian's cooking and was quite shocked.
After all, the dish that Nan Xiangwan reheated was the same dish that Ouyang Qian had messed up earlier. Because her expectations were lowered, Nan Gongchen's eyebrows lifted up when he took his first bite of the tomato and egg stir-fry.
"How is it, Nangong? What do you think of the taste of this dish?" Ye Chaoqun asked excitedly.
Because Ye Chaoqun is a native of Rose Star, although he fought alongside Zhan Siyu and Nan Xiangwan for a period of time, he had never actually eaten scrambled eggs with tomatoes before. He just took a bite of the one Ouyang Qian made and found the taste very strange.
Therefore, he dared not easily try the dish that Nan Xiangwan had improved.
After taking a bite, Nangong Chen hadn't even answered Ye Chaoqun's question when he scooped up another bite.
"It tastes great! I never expected that the taste of a dish could be so different before and after!" Nangong Chen said.
Since Nangong Chen had already given such a good evaluation, Ye Chaoqun and Ouyang Qian were also very much looking forward to it.
The two of them picked up their spoons at the same time and each took a bite of the scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
They were quite surprised when they took a bite.
"How could this be? We use the same ingredients, so why do our dishes taste so different? Am I really a cooking killer?" Ouyang Qian felt very indignant.
Nangong Chen and Ye Chaoqun had almost finished eating, so they put down their spoons.
Nangong Chen noticed what Nan Xiangwan said earlier; they probably used different seasonings.
"Is there anything different about the seasonings?" Nangong Chen looked at the seasonings on the left and right with great curiosity.
Nan Xiangwan smiled silently and said, "That's right, I didn't tell Qianqian about the seasoning just now, so he must have made a mistake!"
"The seasonings here are actually from the lab. They're all grown using the soil from Rose Star!"
"And these are seasonings I took out from my spatial storage, pure ingredients from the Blue Planet!"
As she spoke, Nan Xiangwan could only sigh helplessly.
It seems that the seasonings on both sides are indeed vastly different, which proves that the soil on Rose Star is indeed unsuitable for crop growth.
Even if crops could actually grow there, they would taste completely different from those on Aquamarine Star. They would taste like nutrient solution, filling but tasteless.
Ouyang Qian picked up the two condiments and compared them; they looked exactly the same.
"Oh, I see! I thought my cooking was really that bad!"
"Although my sister's cooking is indeed a bit more fragrant than mine, mine is still edible, isn't it?" Ouyang Qian felt very fortunate at this moment.
He had always wanted to cook for Nan Haochen himself. If his cooking was really that bad, how could he win over his man's stomach?
Fortunately, the problem was with the seasoning, not with his cooking.
Nan Xiangwan laughed and said, "Silly child, what are you thinking? Now that you know the truth, there's no need to keep dwelling on it!"
This is indeed a rather big problem. Nangong Chen thought about it silently for a moment. No wonder the Home Project recently added a small project on soil research. So that's why.
The soil on Rose Star is not suitable for the seeds they brought, so the soil must be improved so that the crops can continue to survive.
This is a very rigorous approach, which ensures that the seeds brought from the Blue Planet can be produced and developed here.
"If the soil here can't grow delicious food and seasonings, won't we be unable to eat such food in the future?" Ye Chaoqun asked.
This was what he cared about most; it would be the biggest regret of his life if he couldn't eat such delicious food.
Nan Xiangwan smiled and said, "The Academy of Sciences is currently researching how to improve the soil, and I believe we'll have results soon!"
Ye Chaoqun was relieved. As long as there was soil to grow food and seasonings, the daily diet of Rose Star would be much more abundant.
"That's great! I thought I wouldn't be able to do it..."
"We are supposed to live for over three hundred years, and we're only a hundred years old now, yet we've already eaten such delicious food. If we can't eat it again in the future, we'll regret it for two hundred years!"
Ye Chaoqun's words were so exaggerated that they made everyone present laugh.
Later, Nan Xiangwan cooked several more dishes for them, and the two of them ate with great relish. They even wanted to stay for dinner, and neither of them wanted to leave.
After trying several dishes that Nan Xiangwan had prepared for the food street, he got down to business.
Nanxiangwan needs to find a relatively large warehouse nearby, which can also be used as a storage point for tableware in the food court area.
