Jiang Qiuqiu’s stream was losing viewers!
The stream next door was gaining viewers!
This was the first ti another stream had ever siphoned viewers away from Jiang Qiuqiu while she was live.
The number of viewers she lost wasn’t huge, but people quickly started to notice.
Emily might not have been the sharpest tool in the shed, but she had a keen eye. The mont she saw Xiong Xin’s viewer count pull ahead of Jiang Qiuqiu’s, she couldn’t resist posting in the bullet chat: [As expected of a cha Soldier! Even live streams have their own tiers!]
Her userna was her real na, and she was a high-level VIP, which made her comnts incredibly eye-catching. Many of Jiang Qiuqiu’s fans recognized her trash-talking userna, and seeing her act so smug now, they couldn’t help but start arguing with her.
This was not a good sign.
Jiang Qiuqiu spoke up to stop them. "Every stream has its own unique charm. Today is a happy day for sharing good food, so let’s not worry about anything else."
The Ju people listened to Jiang Qiuqiu and settled down.
But Emily, in the other stream, was clearly not soone Xiong Xin could control. Even after being ignored, she continued to cause a commotion, thinking: ’Haha, they’ve gone quiet. They must be scared!’
This made Emily even more brazen.
Qiuqiu paid her no mind, however. She only cared about the food in her wok. "Alright, we’ve finished blanching the at. Now, let’s put the duck into so cold water to cool it down, then we’ll rinse it again."
"Why rinse it? Since we’re using a whole duck, there might be so bone fragnts or other impurities left over from when it was chopped. A quick rinse will clean it up."
The rinsed duck was set aside to drain. Next, it was ti to pan-fry the at.
The prep work was already finished. Jiang Qiuqiu turned on the stove, and blue flas instantly licked the bottom of the wok. The high heat quickly evaporated any remaining water inside.
Once the wok was hot, she poured in the oil.
The clear yellow oil began to bubble in the intense heat. The duck in the strainer was ready. "Now we’ll add the at to the wok."
Raw duck skin has plenty of fat, and the goal of pan-frying is to render it out. You use high heat and fry it vigorously. The blanched white duck at will slowly turn a lovely, toasty brown in the hot oil.
The once-puffy duck skin quickly shriveled in the heat, rendering its fat and releasing moisture from the at. This was the mont to add the prepared spices and continue stir-frying for another two minutes.
The aroma of duck at gradually filled the air. The savory scent was building—
[Drooling]
[That’s a huge wok of at...]
[Every ti she cooks, I like to fantasize that Juju is my personal chef, and this entire huge wok of food is all for !]
[The person above must be dreaming.]
As the rich, savory aroma spread, a small handful of viewers trickled back in.
After continuous stir-frying, the duck at in the wok had shrunk considerably. Seeing that the ti was right, Jiang Qiuqiu picked up a bottle of her ho-brewed beer from the side of the counter.
"And now, let’s introduce today’s second protagonist—the beer."
With beer-braised duck, you’re not just savoring the delicious at, but also the unique flavor of the beer.
When making this beer-braised duck, you don’t use a single drop of water. Through every step of the cooking process, the duck is simply cradled in beer.
The beer subrged the duck, and the sizzling sound vanished.
At first, the scent of the beer wasn’t very strong.
As the liquid slowly reduced, it began to evaporate, and the sll of beer in the air grew stronger. The llow, sweet aroma of grain drifted gently, creating a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere for anyone who caught a whiff.
Jiang Qiuqiu herself was a little lost in the aroma.
Once the beer had reduced a bit, she took a few chili peppers from her spice box. People here generally couldn’t handle spicy food, so Jiang Qiuqiu didn’t add very many.
After stir-frying them for two minutes in the high heat, the enticing aroma of beer was joined by a hint of chili spice.
Soon, the sauce had nearly evaporated. Jiang Qiuqiu took out the pressure cooker she had prepared earlier and transferred the duck into it.
The liquid wasn’t quite enough, so Jiang Qiuqiu added another half bottle of beer.
With everything ready, the pressure cooker was placed on the stove.
