Lola simply stood up and peered around Xu Milu, her face full of curiosity.
"Of course, this is just the base ingredient."
Xu Milu's hands moved non-stop as she gutted and cleaned the swift rabbit, slicing the meat into extremely thin slices. The meat, rich in red and white fat, resembled layers of sunset clouds.
Sliced pork, giant radish slices cut into one-finger-wide thick slices, and giant mushroom slices are piled high on the plate.
"Are you suggesting we eat raw meat?"
Lola couldn't resist the aroma any longer, and seeing Xu Milu have someone place the charcoal pot on the long table, she finally interjected again: "This is... hot pot? Put on a fire?"
Yes, like this.
Xu Milu searched for a long time but couldn't find chopsticks, so she simply took off the silver ornaments on the table and used them as chopsticks. She picked up a piece of rabbit meat and put it into the pot. The red and white slices of meat rolled in the boiling spicy broth and quickly changed color.
The rabbit meat is delicious. After being sliced into thin slices and blanched, the slices are coated with chicken giblet broth, which maximizes the deliciousness of the rabbit meat.
"Oh, this taste is so novel!"
Lola was the most proactive, following suit by using a fork to skewer the meat slices and dip them in the hot pot. After the meat changed color and she took a bite, her face lit up.
"So this is what mandolin tastes like! It's amazing. Meat brings out the flavors of various spices when cooked at high temperatures, and the slight tingling on the tip of the tongue stimulates the appetite. The best part is that diners can control the doneness of the ingredients themselves!"
Xu Milu smacked her lips. The two-tone mandolin tasted wonderful and was spicy enough. She believed that in this candy country where hot pot didn't yet exist, no one could resist this flavor.
Little Sunny pursed her lips, her eyes filled with longing. Seeing that her daughter was finally interested in the food, Sanette didn't care that it was food made by Mandolin and immediately had someone push the charcoal stove over.
The maid picked up a piece of chicken giblets and placed it on the plate in front of her. Little Sunny put it in her mouth, and her eyes immediately changed.
Chicken giblets are actually just chicken hearts, livers, gizzards, intestines, and other miscellaneous parts. After being stir-fried with spices, they don't have an unpleasant fishy smell that makes them hard to swallow. The layers of spiciness stimulate the tongue, making you want to eat more.
Foods like radishes and mushrooms, which are bland on their own, are transformed into surprisingly delicious flavors when soaked in a spicy hot pot broth, thanks to the high temperature and spiciness.
Apart from the sound of Sunny eating, the only other sound in the hall was the faint sound of swallowing saliva.
"tasty."
Sunny looked at the meat slices bubbling in the pot and spoke for the first time in front of others:
"My mom also cooked Swift Rabbit with mandolin for me, and it was delicious."
The expression on Sanette's face was indescribable, and his messy beard twitched.
