Her Food Livestream Broke the Galaxy Chapter 114: Meicai Kourou

Heat oil in the wok and place the pork belly inside. "Make sure the side with the skin is facing down."

"Rember, at this point, the skin still has plenty of moisture and the soy sauce we added earlier, so be careful of oil splattering on you while it’s searing."

As the skin made full contact with the bottom of the wok, the high heat caused the smooth surface to puff up, creating an uneven tiger-skin pattern.

At this point, she turned the heat to low, covered the wok, and let it cook for two to three minutes. She then lifted the lid to check on it. The first step was complete once the skin took on a translucent, reddish sheen and the bottom was nicely browned and crisp.

The strips of pork belly were returned to the table, and Jiang Qiuqiu switched to a clean cutting board ant for cooked food.

The browned side landed on the wooden cutting board with a crisp sound. The at jiggled, bouncing on screen. Even without a spotlight, a whole contingent of viewers was already at their limit.

#???#

#I hereby declare that Gugu Beast at is my new favorite food for life.#

#Pork belly is amazing! I cried tears of joy when she made it braised, and now I’m sobbing my heart out for this version too! BOOHOOO!#

Jiang Qiuqiu was naturally happy that everyone was enjoying it.

"Alright, now that the at is out, we’ll cut it into thick slices and portion it out into the bowls."

The cara panned over to a small side table where over twenty small, white porcelain bowls were arranged.

Jiang Qiuqiu picked up a large, silver cleaver and began to slice the at.

She sliced off a section of at about ten centiters long, which would be a single portion. Then, she turned the piece over and began cutting from the skin side. The bright silver blade sliced through the crispy skin with a satisfying CRUNCH.

The blade was so fast that the sound was muffled as it sliced through the fatty part as well. The cut revealed three distinct layers: an appetizing, soy-sauce red; a delicate, glossy white; and a faint yellow tint under the light. Because the at had been seared, a little bit of fat oozed out under the pressure of the knife.

A sight like this could only be accompanied by—

#AAAAAAAH! Why did you have to show a close-up!!#

#AAAAAAH! My mouth is watering so much!#

#Why are there only 21 small bowls? Does that an there will only be 21 servings? Nooooo!#

There were a full two hundred million people in the stream! 21 servings ant that a staggering number of them were going to be unlucky!

Slicing the at was no challenge for Jiang Qiuqiu, so she could spare a mont to smile and reply to the comnts. "Nope, only 20 servings. The last bowl is for the sauce."

"..."

And just like that, five million more unlucky souls were created.

Amidst the lighthearted banter, she finished slicing all the at.

Next, it was ti to stir-fry the preserved mustard greens. The vegetables had been dried and processed, losing all their green color. They looked wrinkled and reddish-brown, not at all like sothing that would taste good.

#Is that side dish just there for decoration? Like a garnish to make the main course look better? (And make the at taste better?)#

#It looks so wrinkly, ugh...#

#I feel like even if I win, I’m not eating that part.#

Despite not even knowing if they’d win, so viewers were already planning how they’d distribute the food—everything from, "I’ll eat the at, my boyfriend can have the wrinkly vegetable, and then maybe I’ll let him have a tiny piece of at," to "I’ll eat the at, and my grandson can have the vegetable."

Its appearance was unassuming, it wasn’t fragrant when stir-fried, and it only gave off a peculiar sll. No wonder everyone thought it was completely unremarkable.

However, with a deft flip of her large wok, Jiang Qiuqiu tipped the preserved mustard greens onto a large platter. "Are you all sure you won’t eat it? Once it’s ready, the vegetable tastes amazing, you know."

"It has a completely different texture from the at. It soaks up all the juices, and when you eat it, you get the vegetable’s unique aroma without missing out on the rich flavor of the at."

The viewers were quick to change their tune. As soon as they heard Jiang Qiuqiu’s description, the comnts imdiately flooded in again:

Alright, alright, if Juju says it’s good, then we’ll look forward to it!
