As soon as the show started, a large number of comments came out.
Because the live broadcast at noon was only for a short hour, many people were still eager to watch and started waiting at around 5 or 6 in the afternoon.
Yesterday with a Clear Sky: The Kung Pao Chicken and Crystal Shrimp Dumplings I had for lunch today truly wowed me. Too bad I only had a small taste. I strongly urge you to make them again!
[Home in the Mine: It feels so good to be able to watch live broadcasts twice a day! It would be so great if Mianmian could live broadcast twice every day.]
As usual, I chose the first-person perspective of the baby panda and turned on the privacy protection settings.
Gu Yumian looked at the rapidly rising number of people and the numerous comments, feeling very grateful, and the corners of his lips curled up:
"I went out this afternoon and came back late. In order not to let the children go hungry, we made something quick tonight. This is called Korean BBQ."
"Also, make a small dessert for Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan after dinner."
Gu Yumian had just fed Yuanyuan some milk. The chubby panda baby was now lying on Gu Yumian's knees, stroking its snow-white belly, licking the milk stains at the corners of its mouth from time to time, and purring with satisfaction.
The little snow leopard pushed Tangyuan's head away, and walked lazily with its chin raised to help Gu Yumian push the container of food over. In its eyes, this showed the demeanor of a head of the family.
Gu Yumian rubbed the two children's heads one by one, and his heart melted.
"Then let's not talk too much and get started."
Gu Yumian moved the barbecue tray, movable stove and small table to the sun room so that he could sit on the wooden floor with soft cushions and barbecue.
The audience can see that many kinds of food ingredients are scattered on the ground:
There was a mixture of fat and lean pork belly and marbled beef, a small bowl of shrimp, vegetarian dishes including shiitake mushrooms, enoki mushrooms, green onions, ginger, garlic and cucumbers, a plate of bread slices and a stack of something white, soft and sticky looking.
At first glance, it is really dazzling.
[South China Tiger Never Goes on a Blind Date: Hey, is this the barbecue we used to make at Takuxing? I've loved it ever since I ate it that time, but it never seems right when I make it myself. Looking forward to it!]
Vivian: What? She did it on Takuxing before? I'm jealous. I can't find any of the host's previous recordings online.
"The taste and steps of barbecue and grilling are quite different," Gu Yumian nodded, "but they are indeed a bit similar. They are both very convenient, and you can try it at home."
The little snow leopard used its paws to push a small bamboo basket filled with fresh lettuce towards it. It sat there proudly, its head tilted back, waiting for its human's praise.
The baby panda sucked on its pacifier and looked at the bamboo basket curiously.
Gu Yumian patted his head in a flattering manner, his eyes curved: "Tuantuan is awesome."
The little snow leopard moved its long tail and squinted its eyes lazily, showing a somewhat satisfied look.
Baby panda: "Ming."
Gu Yumian treated her equally and kissed her forehead: "Yuanyuan is great too. She's always very well behaved at home."
The little snow leopard's face gradually darkened: "..."
Audience from the baby panda’s perspective: “!!!!!!”
[Lin Shen sees the deer: Damn, Mian Mian praised me for being great and even kissed me on the forehead, I’m dead!!!]
[Lilihuabai: I'm new here, are you guys always this exciting?! My health bar was wiped out by a critical hit when I opened the screen.]
[Schrödinger's Dog: When the anchor looks at me with a smile, I want to pick the stars in the sky for him]
Gu Yumian started airing a little late tonight. Considering the overall popularity over the two days, it is undoubtedly the first in the newcomer competition, but if we only consider the popularity today, it is not the first.
However, half an hour into the show, the gap between him and the number one of the day has been narrowing. So far, the number of online viewers has reached three million, and he is about to overtake.
One hour at noon and half an hour at night can surpass the second RMB player, and the lottery will accumulate popularity for most of the day.
Not to mention the rookie competition, even among the top anchors, even with the help of high traffic on Saturday, this is still a good result.
"Okay," Gu Yumian said after sorting the ingredients into categories.
"There's basically nothing to prepare. Let's just cut and marinate the pork belly and marbled beef."
Slice the pork belly. Gu Yumian slices it slightly thicker than usual, so it's tender and chewy when grilled. As for the premium marbled beef, remove any inedible blood clots and fascia, then slice against the grain into very thin slices about three fingers wide. Then, gently pat the meat with the back of a knife to soften it.
As usual, you just need to open the back of the shrimp and remove the shrimp thread. Other vegetarian dishes are washed and drained.
"Let's make the dipping sauce and marinade for later."
The little snow leopard and the baby panda hadn't seen Gu Yumian for an afternoon, so they were very clingy at this time - little Tangyuan was more direct and intimate, while the little snow leopard was inadvertently marking his own place of belonging.
Gu Yumian was afraid they might run around and touch the food or sauce, dirtying their paws. So he simply picked up the baby panda and placed it between his knees. He then picked up the little snow leopard and stuffed it into the collar of his sweatshirt, resting his chin on the little snow leopard's head.
“The main taste of the marinade and dipping sauce is sweet, spicy and smooth.”
Gu Yumian found a less strong chili sauce on the market. He then mixed the chili sauce with cooking wine, an appropriate amount of sesame paste, a small spoonful of sugar, and an appropriate amount of sesame oil, and mixed well. He then put the thinly sliced marbled beef rolls in it.
Putting it into a special vacuum high-pressure device can shorten the marinating time and you can start grilling after marinating for a while.
The dipping sauce was a combination of tomato sauce, chili sauce, and salt. Gu Yumian sautéed minced ginger and garlic before adding them to the sauce along with sesame oil, and finally added three spoonfuls of sweetened sparkling water for flavor.
The dipping sauce prepared in this way has a rich and bright color. If you get close, you can smell the sweetness of soda water and the fragrant aroma of stir-fried ginger and chili sauce.
[Puff: Wow, this dipping sauce looks great and smells delicious too.]
User 187874: I'm new here. Why is the host spending so much time making the dipping sauce? Couldn't they have just started making it earlier?
After reading it, Gu Yumian just smiled and did not answer the question.
The dipping sauce of Korean barbecue is the soul, which is far more than just looking good or smelling good, but it cannot be explained in a few words.
While waiting for the meat to be marinated, Gu Yumian was not idle either. He lit the stove under the table, started to heat the pan with oil, covered it with some kind of paper he had found to replace barbecue paper, and poured a layer of olive oil on the surface.
Perhaps because he moved too much when lighting the stove, Gu Yumian's collar tilted a little, revealing half of the dark red rose on his collarbone. He quickly noticed it and tugged at his collar.
[Home in the Mine: Huh? What did I just see?! Does Mianmian have a tattoo?]
[Powder Puff: I think I saw it too. It's a bit erotic. So unfair!!! It looks like a rose. It matches Mianmian inexplicably.]
Very suitable.
The little snow leopard raised its chin with great satisfaction.
The meat was marinated at this time, and the pot was heated to the perfect temperature. Before more people noticed, Gu Yumian coughed twice to attract everyone's attention:
"Okay, you can start baking."
Gu Yumian picked up his chopsticks and spread the beef pieces flat on the barbecue paper. The red and white, evenly distributed fat formed a marbled pattern of beef, marinated to perfection. Gu Yumian first spread the beef on the paper and brushed it with a layer of oil and barbecue sauce, then turned it over and brushed it with another layer after a while.
The slightly tilted baking tray with oil drain hole prevents the oil from being retained in the meat, but slides down, avoiding excess oil and making the meat too greasy.
The beef was grilled very quickly. In less than a minute, both sides of the roasted marbled beef were slightly golden brown, and there was a sizzling sound in the grill pan. The marinated sauce had a beautiful color and the surface had an extremely attractive luster.
A mouth-watering aroma quickly spread!
The audience watched, salivating, as Gu Yumian placed each piece of roast beef onto the plate. The comment barrage and viewer count soared. The snow leopard's tail brushed Gu Yumian's wrist, quietly urging and anticipating him, while the panda cub, its eyes bright, purred softly.
Gu Yumian had originally planned to prepare a full, traditional dish, grilling the enoki mushrooms and button mushrooms and wrapping them in lettuce along with the chili rings and roast beef. But then, unable to resist the child's urging, he picked up two pieces, let them cool, dipped them in the prepared dipping sauce, and fed a small piece each to the snow leopard cub and the baby panda.
The air was still for nearly ten seconds.
Gu Yumian was starting to get a little nervous. Was it not tasty? He had eaten it this way before, and maybe the people here weren't used to the taste?
After a long while.
The baby panda was stunned for a long time. After it came to its senses, it nudged itself very hard in Gu Yumian's arms, making surprised whimpering sounds. The little snow leopard pressed one paw on Gu Yumian's wrist and even unconsciously tilted its head to rub against Gu Yumian's palm, urging him to take another bite.
——At first, you taste the sweet and slightly spicy flavor of the sauce, wrapped in the sweet and delicious marbled beef that is roasted to a crispy outside and tender inside. The flavor is rich and fragrant when you take a bite, and the slightly crispy, easy to chew and very soft texture is something that other methods do not have.
The finishing touch is the dipping sauce, which is neither overpowering nor overwhelming. The sweet soda water brings out a taste that sugar doesn't have, and tiny bubbles dance on the tip of the tongue, impacting the taste buds, further enhancing the texture and flavor of the tender beef with a slightly oily and rich roasted aroma on the surface.
The layers of this barbecue were so distinct that you'd have to savor it for a long time after taking one bite. No wonder everyone was stunned just now.
It was only at this point that the barrage of comments began to pour out crazily!
[Boy B: Ahh ...
[Home in the Mine: At first, it felt weirdly sweet and a little spicy. After two seconds, it was okay. Then, in the third second, I thought: Holy crap! This is divine cooking! Hurry up! I want more! I almost called the neighbors and they started yelling! Five fireworks for my beloved Mian Mian!]
[Youyunduo: Sweet and spicy, appetizing, and very delicious. The roasted beef was cooked to perfection and very fresh. Excellent! Send some fireworks.]
[Lili Huabai: I almost swallowed my tongue while eating this. It was so delicious. The texture was so good.]
Countless gift special effects exploded wildly on the screen, and too many fireworks triggered several platform-wide raffles.
It's now been forty minutes since the show started, and the number of viewers has reached a terrifying five million, not only surpassing the number one in the popularity calculation of the rookie competition that day, but also leaving the opponent far behind!
Gu Yumian's live broadcast room also squeezed into the top three of the real-time popularity of the life area, and was just a little bit away from being on the overall list of the entire platform - it is conceivable that the popularity will usher in another round of surge after being on the overall list.
"Let's grill the pork belly and vegetables," Gu Yumian pinched the little snow leopard's face, "and try the traditional Korean way of eating it."
Gu Yumian chose a pork belly with a mix of fat and lean, giving it a rich, fragrant texture and firm lean meat. He replaced the grilling paper he'd used to grill the beef with fresh, thinly sliced pork belly, then placed a circle of button mushrooms and enoki mushrooms next to the pork belly.
The process of roasting the pork belly was very interesting. The baby panda tried clumsily to hold the chopsticks with its little paw pads. The little snow leopard didn't seem to care, and Gu Yumian saw that it seemed to want to play too, so he gave it a pair of chopsticks.
Gu Yumian didn't add much extra oil this time, much to the audience's surprise. Soon, the pork belly was roasted to a golden, fragrant sizzling color. Even more surprising, the pork belly actually released oil from the roasting process, which flowed into the shiitake mushrooms arranged nearby.
The white shiitake mushrooms dipped in pork belly gradually turned brown and fragrant. Gu Yumian picked up a small one and put it on the spoon. After blowing it cool, he fed one to the little snow leopard and the little glutinous rice ball.
The audience opened their eyes wide.
The grilled shiitake mushrooms were surprisingly juicy, with a slightly crispy, soft, and chewy texture, and the hot, fresh juices that flowed down the tip of the tongue when bitten. And there was more to it than that.
After the pork belly was roasted and taken out of the oven, Gu Yumian took two lettuce leaves, put some shiitake mushrooms and enoki mushrooms in them, added a very small amount of fried minced garlic to enhance the flavor, then sandwiched the roasted golden pork belly in between, brushed a layer of dipping sauce on it, and gave one to each of the two children to taste.
The lettuce has a crispy and refreshing texture, and when you bite deeper, you will find the fragrant roasted pork belly and the delicious and unique-tasting enoki mushrooms. The pork belly is indeed tender, smooth, firm and chewy, and it is even better when paired with the sweet and spicy dipping sauce.
With so many dishes combined together, the taste does not seem messy at all. Instead, each dish complements each other, and the overall taste is fragrant, rich, and delicious to the point of making your scalp tingle.
Gu Yumian and the children grilled and ate at the same time. He poured himself a glass of beer and gave Xiao Xuetuan and Xiao Tangyuan some fruity sparkling water.
Vivian: I'm dead! The beef is delicious, the pork belly is delicious, but how come even a piece of lettuce and mushrooms are so fucking delicious?!
[Pink Letter: I can never make the same quality food as the host at home. I finally understand. I'm not short of brains or hands, I'm short of a host!!! Host, would you consider coming to my house and being a human? I'll steal your electric bike and support you!!]
[Meow: 2333 is going crazy again, please go to the back to get your number.]
[Boy B: This is delicious too! ! Not greasy at all! I'm dying! I'm going to wish the host a happy new year again.]
Within an hour of the broadcast, the number of viewers soared to over eight million!
Gu Yumian's control of the rhythm was perfect. After the frenetic cooking and grilling, the pace and mood gradually slowed down for a relaxing dinner. A small stove and a low table were placed on the wooden floor, and Gu Yumian had laid out soft cushions for the snow leopard and panda cubs.
The family sat around the table, chatting, eating barbecue, and drinking beer and sparkling water. The evening light streamed down from the sunroom's transparent dome onto the wooden floor. The temperature in the sunroom was perfectly adjusted, and the light was warm and comfortable.
It was a beautiful evening.
"What are we having for dessert?" Gu Yumian sat cross-legged, helping the baby panda sit upright. He smoothed the fur behind the snow leopard's ears with the back of his hand. "I want to see a movie. Do Tuan Tuan and Yuan Yuan want to watch?"
After eating barbecue, watch a relaxing comedy movie with dessert and drinks, and fall asleep in the quiet and happy atmosphere.
The little snow leopard tilted its head and lay lazily in Gu Yumian's arms, and the baby panda hugged Gu Yumian's palm.
This question was asked to the children, but the audience filled the comments with a lot of "OK, OK", "I can do anything, I'll listen to you", and "I'm so happy, ahhhh, woooooo".
At this moment, the live broadcast has been going on for exactly one hour.
Ever since it appeared on the natural charts for 'Latest Live Broadcast' and 'Real-time Popularity in the Living Area' half an hour ago, the number of viewers has been increasing by more than one million almost every ten minutes, and is now approaching ten million.
Eight o'clock in the evening sharp.
The number of viewers in Gu Yumian's live broadcast room officially exceeded 10 million, ranking first in the real-time popularity list of the life area and successfully appearing on the real-time popularity list on the homepage.
On Saturday night, the traffic from the natural recommendation position on the homepage began to be continuously directed to the live broadcast room like a tide!
The other side.
At the Elbet restaurant headquarters, the boss solemnly turned on the screen projection for the senior management to see. Everyone hadn't heard the news yet, so after a while they were all amazed and chattering:
"Is this the new chef? He seems to be very popular as a live streamer, with so many gifts and viewers. Boss, you must have spent a lot of money to recruit him, right?"
"My wife and daughter are also watching his live broadcast."
"It looks delicious! Hurry up and hire him as the head chef. I can convince our shareholders to invest another 5 million star coins."
The boss was silent for a moment and took off his hat.
He said:
"No, this is your future boss. I'm just introducing him to you."
Everyone: “…”
An atmosphere of silence spread.
The Academy of Sciences in Shangcheng District.
The legal working hours are 6pm, with no work on Saturdays and Sundays, but researchers don't have holidays. Because a senior member of the Academy of Sciences had shared a post on WeChat Moments, many people were curious and went to watch Gu Yumian's livestream, and 90% of them were unsurprisingly hooked.
“…”
For the first time in history, in the silent and solemn academy representing the most advanced technology in the universe, the sound of swallowing saliva could be heard one after another.
