Chapter 153 There is Magic
“But it seems a little unrecognizable.”
The bacon was recognizable at a glance. It was bright red in color, with the fat on top translucent and oily, and looked particularly delicious.
But there were also some red and green things in it. He thought they were celery at first, but when he looked closely, they didn't look like celery, and the smell was obviously different.
Although he didn't recognize what it was, Xiaowu still put a big spoonful of it on his plate. This is the advantage of arriving early!
It doesn’t matter what it is, what matters is that it is freshly made and doesn’t have that machine-made smell!
As soon as he sat down on the chair, Xiaowu quickly took a bite.
This time, he couldn't help but frown.
"It feels a little familiar, but I don't know what it is." After tasting it carefully, the taste is indeed delicious, but there is a bit of strangeness in the fragrance.
What on earth is this thing that Master Bai made? It doesn’t taste right to me.
He added another chopstick and chewed slowly. The flavor aside, the texture was excellent. Master Bai's skill in stir-frying the vegetables was truly remarkable. They were crispy, tender, and incredibly delicate, with no fiber at all. The juices practically burst in his mouth with each bite. The bacon was also incredibly delicious. It wasn't particularly unusual, but when combined with the unusual vegetables, it had a unique texture.
"It's strange that I can't taste whether this dish is delicious or not."
Having said that, Xiao Wu's chopsticks never stopped. By the time she reacted, she found that the plate was empty.
"I think the dried radish and minced meat, and the vegetable and meatball soup are more delicious." He compared them secretly.
Of course, this dish is definitely much more delicious than the celery and pork shreds made with Chef Xue’s machine.
He thought about it carefully and decided to get another spoonful.
“It tastes quite fresh.”
He ate another mouthful happily.
Before I knew it, the whole plate of bacon and reed grass was finished.
"There's something weird. This dish might have cast some kind of magic spell on it." Xiao Wu found that he still wanted to eat more and couldn't sit still anymore. He ran to the food pick-up area and gave himself a big spoonful.
After tasting it carefully this time, I finally got a feel for it.
The taste of this green stem is amazing, and it also has a special fragrance that keeps coming into my mind.
You can’t tell the difference at first, but after eating more, you will find it particularly delicious, especially the smoked bacon with fat and lean parts, which is crystal clear.
The already sweet and juicy plants, paired with the salty and fragrant bacon, and the balance of fat, make it so tempting that you can’t stop eating them.
By the time he finished the spoonful, Xiao Wu was completely convinced: "Why do I still want to eat it! I'm afraid I'm addicted to this dish. It's really poisonous!"
There were more and more people in the cafeteria. Although he wanted to fight more, the cafeteria had its own rules. If he fought too much, it would arouse public anger, so he could only sit there sadly for a while.
"I haven't even savored how delicious this dish is, but I can't finish it. It feels like Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit!"
…
At this time, Xiaoliu walked back to the office, reinstalled the system on the machine, and then took out a box of Helilao self-heating hot pot.
"Xiao Wu, this isn't me taking care of you. It's you who can't lose face. This hot pot is my treasure. It's so much better than those dishes I've eaten a thousand times!"
I opened the box, put the ingredients in it, added cold water, and began to wait silently. At this time, the office door suddenly opened.
"Have you finished your meal?"
Xiao Liu glanced at it with amusement. "Those dishes again, huh? Don't force yourself if you can't finish them, or you'll be the one who suffers in the end. You should refuse others when they don't want to, otherwise, with your personality, you'll suffer sooner or later."
"You're embarrassed and want to take care of Master Bai, but your stomach suffers. Unlike me, I can stay in the office and eat delicious hot pot."
After Xiaoliu finished his long speech, he thought his silly brother would understand some of the truth, but Xiaowu seemed to not understand at all. He shook his head and said:
"You're not right."
"What's wrong?"
"Today we have not only the usual dishes, but also a vegetable dish. Although it's not as good as the celery meatball soup and dried radish and minced meat before, it gives me a special feeling of being both delicious and not delicious!"
"A new dish is on the menu today?!" Xiao Liu was surprised, then frowned again: "What do you mean by delicious or not? Is it good or bad?"
Xiao Wu patted his round belly and said, "Anyway, I ate three big plates and my stomach is full, but I still feel like eating."
"You actually ate so much?! It must be extremely delicious! I'm at a big loss!" Xiaoliu sat up suddenly and ran towards the cafeteria.
But when we got there, it was already past mealtime.
Apart from the stewed radish and braised chicken, there was nothing else, especially the plate with the new dishes, which didn't have any broth at all and looked quite horrible.
Xiaoliu could only touch his head helplessly.
"Chef Bai is so mean! He didn't even tell me about the new dish!"
…
Bai Mengmeng was a little worried at first. Although fried bacon with artemisia is delicious, people who are not used to it may not like it. However, she did not expect that this dish would still be very popular among everyone.
Soon the plates were empty, and Bai Mengmeng had to re-fry half a pot and refill it again to satisfy most people.
Of course, this may have something to do with the quality of the Artemisia selengensis produced on this island. Because of the particularly suitable climate and incredibly fertile soil, the wild vegetables produced here are of incredibly high quality.
In addition, this is the season when they grow vigorously. The artemisia is so tender that you can squeeze out water directly from it, and there is not even a trace of bitterness.
Plus, Bai Mengmeng is blessed with talent, so it tastes so good.
This Artemisia selengensis is delicious when cooked, and Bai Mengmeng thought of the wild mint she had seen before.
"Mint tastes really good, too." Bai Mengmeng suddenly wanted to eat mint again: "There are mint scrambled eggs, fried pork chops, and mint beef!"
Just think about it, there are a whole host of dishes that can be made with mint.
And more importantly, it can make drinks!
Just thinking about that refreshing feeling, you can tell that it must be particularly delicious!
Bai Mengmeng was still thinking about what dish to cook next. She had no idea that her chrysanthemum bacon had a special effect and caused a sensation in Zigai Mountain.
