Chapter 21: The Poor Man's Recipe
"Bring the water to a boil and start the ramen."
As a free meal guest, An Ling also made a corresponding enlightenment. With the observation of Gu Tiantian and Gu Yun, she showed her skillful ramen skills.
This time, it is also a good opportunity for her to avenge her previous shame.
Although An Ling got the true teachings of her mother and thought she was good at cooking, she might have the chance to save her when she missed half a bottle of salt last time.
As an ordinary person, she really has no way to deliver a dish that goes against common sense.
He suffered a defeat when he first appeared, so An Ling was more cautious this time.
"Sister Anling is so awesome!"
Gu Tiantian's eyes shone.
Ramen is a technical job. She once tried ramen, but after a few swipes, the noodles broke. In the end, no ramen was formed, leaving only a pot of gnocchi.
"But, it seems that there is no side dish for ramen at home."
Recently, she was busy preparing for the monthly exam and didn't visit the supermarket. Her brother found a new job. After a few days, the cash in the refrigerator had almost finished eating, leaving only a bag of bread and a few eggs.
But in Gu Tiantian’s impression, broth is the key to ramen.
Chicken soup, pig bone soup, beef soup...
These ingredients are quite expensive.
"Pack it with me."
An Ling smiled slightly. Before she decided to take action, she specially observed the bleak kitchen of Gu Yun's house. The scene of the house being barely walled provided her with an excellent stage.
Ramen using broth can be found everywhere, and she may not be better than what she cooks in restaurants.
but!
During the period of studying various cuisines with my mother, Anling finally found the field she was best at.
As an otaku who often can't help but can't help but pay her salary, she lives in dire straits all year round. In this unique environment, An Ling finally developed her own cooking skills - poor people cooking!
The so-called poor cooking means that they can make a decent dinner even if they don’t have any ingredients at home.
“This soup base is very simple.”
After putting the ramen in the pot, Anling started to prepare the sauce.
"Soy sauce, salt, chicken essence, pepper, just this kind of seasoning that can be seen everywhere can make a soup base with a strong flavor!"
"Sister Anling, you really know how to live."
"Ah haha, it's normal."
An Ling was embarrassed by Gu Tiantian's praise. She didn't know what she would feel if she let the other party know her "heroic deeds" in the past.
"Finally, as long as you need another ingredient, you can inject soul into this bowl of ramen."
"What is it?"
"coriander!"
Anling said with a chef-like manner.
Soy sauce, salt, chicken essence, pepper and a piece of coriander are a dinner that costs 5 yuan. At the same time, it is also her shame...
"Sister Anling, we don't eat coriander very much, so we don't..."
Gu Tiantian scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Don't eat coriander? It doesn't matter. Students who don't have coriander at home can use a small spoonful of sesame oil instead."
"Sew oil...is not, that one is a little extravagant for us."
"What ingredients are there?"
“…Only eggs and bread are left.”
Gu Tiantian flipped through the refrigerator, took out half a bag of bread, and said pitifully.
An Ling smiled like a flower. She said nothing and put the cooked ramen into a bowl.
Once again, she felt like she was about to crack.
I think you are deliberately making things difficult for me!
Although it is a poor abortion, are coriander and sesame oil not essential condiments that normal people will prepare!
Anling has a small disadvantage.
She could only think of one thing for a while. The two consecutive "bad news" made her brain suddenly fall into a state of downtime. Coupled with Gu Tiantian's pitiful look, An Ling instinctively felt that she should say something.
She stared at the bread bag that Gu Tiantian was holding...
"It doesn't matter if there is no sesame oil. Students who don't have sesame oil at home can sprinkle a handful of bread crumbs instead."
An Ling spoke out by a stranger.
………………………………………
"I feel that the bread crumbs taste a little strange in the soup."
After watching Anling's cooking throughout the whole process, Gu Yun made a pertinent comment.
The bread is filled with bean paste, and the bread crumbs are also dipped in some sweet bean paste flavor. This sweetness and the salty taste created by soy sauce, salt and chicken essence collide, bringing the taste in an extremely strange direction.
He couldn't help but recall the two experiences he had so far.
The first time was the potato beef that was so salty that it could hardly taste other flavors; now, it is mixed with sweet and salty, letting the self-like ramen fly.
Seriously...
An Ling, is she really good at cooking?
If you are not good at it, there is actually no need to show off. Everyone has areas that are good at and not good at it.
For example, he is not very good at quantum physics and nuclear physics.
"I made a mistake this time. Next time, I will definitely make a decent dish next time..."
Gu Yun's slightly suspicious gaze made An Ling feel uncomfortable, her head was almost buried in the bowl, and she didn't know why she just thrust her mind and sprinkled her handful of bread crumbs in.
"No need to force me. My sister often cooks. If she doesn't dislike her, she can come to us in the evening."
Being sympathized!
She was invited to have a free meal every night, but why wasn't she happy at all?
"I...I will come again!"
An Ling was about to cry without tears. She drank the remaining noodle soup in one go, blushed, and picked up her bag and snatched out of the door.
"Hey, brother, why are you talking like that!"
If you speak so straight, you can't find a girlfriend!
"Treat girls with a tactful attitude! Moreover, Sister Anling's ramen skills are very good, but there is a problem with the seasoning. This is obviously a very common mistake!"
"My mother-in-law once said that the chef and the warrior are the same."
Although the taste was very strange, Gu Yun still drank the noodle soup in the bowl completely.
He wiped his mouth, and his mother-in-law's past teachings were still vivid in her mind.
"For warriors, being sympathized with by their opponents is a great sorrow. The taster is the chef's opponent."
“…Who is mother-in-law?”
Gu Tiantian remembers that when her father threatened to become a treasure hunter, she was still in elementary school.
After their father left, they also cut off contact with all their relatives. During the past ten years, only their brother was with her.
Later, when she grew up, she realized that when the financial crisis was coming, the whole country was in a state of depression. In this case, no one would be willing to accept such a burden like her.
"Is it grandma?"
"no."
Gu Yun shook, and after coming to this world, he had only seen his grandmother.
A few days after my mother left home, my grandmother came once and took away some valuable items.
"My mother-in-law I mentioned is a very famous barbecue master in the village. Later, she had to give up this profession because of food poisoning."
It's a topic that I can't understand at all.
"Brother, wake up quickly. You haven't lived in the countryside!" Gu Tiantian paused and continued, "I'll ask you, what do you think of Sister Anling?"
"I am a kind-hearted girl, but the food I cook is not very delicious."
"What, I think Sister An Ling is good at living. Brother, have you never considered dating? Do you like the gentle and cute type or the strong and capable type?"
Gu is very tempted every day.
She has read the investigation report and said that men generally become steady after getting married. If the brother is in love, he might not say these inconspicuous words again.
"I never thought of this."
"Think about it now, what kind of girls do you like?"
