The numbers on the blackboard outside the shop kept changing, especially the lamb skewers, which were disappearing rapidly.
People in line felt both uncomfortable and helpless.
Luckily, there were still unlimited large chicken drumsticks available, which provided a little comfort in this cold winter.
The large chicken drumstick looked incredibly delicious.
Not only Shen Chao, a full-grown man, but even Zhou Wanqing, the cute girl, was already gripping the drumstick and chomping down on it, as if she were as bold as a mountain king eating a drumstick in the past.
Everyone had the sa thought in their heads—you can’t truly experience the essence of this chicken drumstick without eating it this way!
The perfect texture and flavor tempted you beyond your control to nibble on it.
An ingenious person even invented a way to eat grilled chicken legs with stewed mushrooms.
Lin Dong took a big bite of the drumstick, didn’t chew, then bit into a mushroom skewer before starting to chew both together.
The fresh mushroom at and mushroom juice mixed continuously with the chicken leg at, creating a wonderful change when the two delicious flavors combined.
Shen Chao looked at Lin Dong with admiration, "You’re sothing else; would you call this braised chicken with mushrooms? How does it taste?"
"It tastes amazing! You should try it! Hahahaha."
Lin Dong felt he had found the perfect way to eat it and generously recomnded it to Shen Chao.
Shen Chao tried it and found that the two delicacies together indeed had a magical effect of 1 1 greater than 2.
"You’re a real genius."
Zhou Wanqing had already demolished the entire leg, which was almost larger than her face.
"Burp..."
An uncontrollable belch, perhaps the greatest complint a diner can give to a chef.
However, she felt she could eat a little more, and the newly served honey toast was a good choice.
The rectangular slice of bread was large, very deserving of its three-yuan price. Even down the mountain, she felt this pricing wasn’t making a profit.
Honey ford a transparent layer of caral on the surface of the bread slice, shining with a golden light. So places were slightly darker due to caralization, but these traces didn’t detract from its appearance; instead, they made it even more appealing.
Black roasted sesa seeds were evenly sprinkled on the bread slice, and the fragrance of sesa combined with the sweet aroma of the bread made the mouth water.
"Crunch..."
The instant Zhou Wanqing’s greasy mouth took a light bite of the honey toast, a crisp sound echoed by her ear, like a delightful conversation between the bread and her teeth.
As her teeth slowly cut in, the first sensation was the crispy crust of the bread slice, with a layer as thin as cicada wings shattering in her mouth, followed by the bread’s softness and sweetness slowly being released, blending with the rich flavor of honey.
Zhou Wanqing thoroughly enjoyed this unique texture and sound, the crunch accompanied by the rhythm of chewing, making the bread-eating process more fun and fulfilling. The sweet fragrance of honey spread throughout her mouth, perfectly combining with the bread’s wheat aroma, captivating her.
Whether it was an illusion or not, Zhou Wanqing felt those slightly charred spots were unexpectedly tasty, with possibly so mysterious changes in the flavor.
At this mont, Wang Fan was also grilling bread while teaching Li Wei and Feng Haoyu a few things.
"Look at this slice of bread, I could control it to be entirely golden brown, but while that looks appealing, it lacks so unique taste. This caralization on food is called the Maillard reaction. The Maillard reaction is the king of all cooking chemical reactions, the key that makes diners drool at grilled at. The Maillard reaction is essentially a series of complex reactions between amino acids and sugars, creating the characteristic browning and over a hundred distinct flavor substances in cooked food."
Although Li Wei and Feng Haoyu didn’t understand those chemical terms, it didn’t stop them from morizing Wang Fan’s words. Students from the Four Provinces of Shanhua have so innate talent for rote morization.
Wang Fan himself didn’t actually understand those chemical terms, but that didn’t stop him from using the color change of food to achieve this effect.
His enhanced eyes and nose allowed him to control any ingredient to achieve the perfect Maillard reaction.
While teaching, the queue at his door grew longer, with the number of people continuously increasing. Next door, the pancake shop owner Wang Zhi was busy as well. As a specialty of Lu Dong, his business was usually decent during peak season. However, it was now the off-season for tourism, and most custors had specific goals, which had left him sowhat idle lately.
However, after collaborating with Wang Fan, his sales skyrocketed, keeping him busy.
Though painful, it was a joyful experience since the profits also rose accordingly.
Looking up, Wang Zhi shook his head in admiration.
Take a look at the small Boss Wang next door; custors lined up from his shop’s entrance to my door, even trailing out with a tail. There’s no comparing one person to another.
"I rushed over here from Sichuan Province, not knowing if the grilled at is as good as online rumors say."
"Haha, I ca from Dali, climbing Mount Tai and joining the excitent; those people praised it as heavenly. If the taste is half as good, it wouldn’t be bad."
"That would be a bit of a letdown, but I still plan to stay in Lu Dong for a few more days to see if the local environnt can help grow taller."
Wang Zhi listened to two tourists chatting outside the shop and couldn’t help but interject: "Be assured, folks, Little Boss Wang’s skills are not a boast; it’ll definitely be worth your trip. The only thing you need to worry about is whether there’ll be anything left by the ti you get served."
The friend from Sichuan Province curiously asked, "Boss, have you tasted their grilled at?"
Wang Zhi laughed heartily: "I was probably his first custor when he got here. I tell you, his skewers are insanely fragrant; pair them with our pancake, and it’s perfect!"
The friend from Sichuan Province looked at Wang Zhi’s sign with so delight and said, "So, you sell Lu Dong specialty pancakes; give one, I want to try this specialty taste."
Wang Zhi replied, "Sure, do you want it with scallions or bigger green onions?"
"Just make it the way locals eat it; if I’m gonna eat it, I want the most authentic taste."
"Well..."
Wang Zhi hesitated: "The most authentic might be a bit spicy; can you handle it?"
The fellow from Sichuan imdiately flared up: "? Boss, did you hear clearly? I’m from Sichuan Province. Are you underestimating our Sichuan spice tolerance? Co on, wrap the spiciest thing you have; today, I’ll show you that we in Sichuan are the best at handling spice!"
