"Whoosh..."
The blue noodles were dropped directly into boiling water, where they tumbled and twisted as they were separated by the rising bubbles. Eventually, under the sustained high temperature, they lost their activity.
"Just cook it until it's barely done. If you cook it for too long, it will disintegrate and affect the taste."
Use a sieve to scoop out the slime noodles and soak them in the prepared cold water.
Since they have already lost their activity, cooling them down now will not restore their vitality.
The noodles were soaking in the water, and El placed the previously cooked heart on the cutting board and sliced it into evenly thick pieces.
"Tap...tap...tap..."
The gray heart was sliced into pieces. Although the gargoyle's flesh was very firm, the pieces were cut relatively thick to take into account El's own physical condition.
"Next, it's the final step."
Place the slime noodles in a bowl, and then evenly spread the gargoyle heart slices on top.
Finally, El poured a gravy made from minotaur meat mince and other seasonings over the heart.
Blue noodles, gray slices of meat, topped with a beautiful layer of gravy, and each beef cube is quite large—you can really taste the meat.
"Perfect, my brand new recipe, a combination of various monster ingredients, the final dish: Slime Cold Noodles."
There's nothing more to say. All El needs to do now is eat, eat, and eat some more.
chew.
The thick heart, the collision between the teeth, and the chewy texture made El feel the gargoyle's tenacious vitality.
With one bite, some juices flow out, the meat juices and beef gravy combine, and a savory aroma explodes in your mouth.
It's wrapped with some beef chunks, giving it a completely different texture from the gargoyle, which adds to its flavor.
Most importantly, of course, is the main dish of this meal: cold slime noodles.
The noodles are chewy and smooth, with a cool sensation that only slime can provide.
With each chew, the slime removes the salty and oily taste from the meat and sauce, especially from the tongue.
It's like resetting the state of your mouth, ensuring that no matter how much you eat, it won't feel too salty or too greasy.
"Perfect pairings are also key to cooking."
As he uttered this exclamation, El felt himself being lifted up by gargoyles and soaring among the clouds.
The gargoyles at my feet, with each flap of their wings, are a manifestation of vitality.
The surrounding blue clouds swayed, and two eyes of slightly different colors appeared on them.
This is a slime cloud.
The raindrops falling from the clouds were the color of the braising sauce, making El feel as if he were swimming in an ocean of cuisine.
"Ah, how peaceful..."
When he opened his eyes again, El didn't say anything. He just slowly stood up and made himself another bowl of cold noodles.
"Delicious, eat more. Thank you Blue Dumpling, Niu Niu No. 1, and Stone Glob for your selfless contributions."
El will never forget their contributions. Although he doesn't know their names, the nicknames he gave them sound pretty good, don't they?

The food was as good as ever, which brought El one step closer to his goal of getting the numerical monster.
