Chapter 175 Eel and Hand Speed
The hot oil fried in the pan plus the cooked fried eggs, if Charmander was not a fire-attribute Pokémon, it would have been sent to the Pokémon Center by now. Fortunately, Charmander was fine, and Heath was relieved.
"Are you planning to make a fried egg?" Heath threw the inedible fried egg into the trash can. This kind of fried egg is inedible. Heath didn't know how Zoroar did it. The fried egg was almost turned into charcoal.
If it were in his previous life, Heath would definitely put the fried egg made by Zoroa into the dark cuisine to prove to others that there are indeed some people in this world who are not suitable for learning to cook, and that cooking actually requires talent.
"Well... Congcong told me how to do it, but it's too difficult because my claws are too short." Zoroya lowered his head with a guilty look on his face. The Onion Duck was washing the pot over there. A pot with burnt food fried in it needs to be cleaned carefully, otherwise the dishes cooked afterwards may have a burnt smell.
Heath looked at the guilty Zoroark and couldn't help rubbing its head. This little guy has a good heart. Maybe he felt guilty after he got himself into trouble yesterday?
"Leave the cooking to me. Zoroa has his uses too. After all, your illusions are so realistic." Heath comforted Zoroa with a smile. Now in Heath's dining car, Zoroa is still considered a mascot.
After cleaning up the kitchen, Heath set up the autopilot and began to prepare breakfast for his Pokémon. Heath planned to make crispy beef noodles, but looking at the black egg made by Zoroark, Heath added a fried egg for the Pokémon.
After breakfast, the food truck arrived at the market. Heath took Zoroa and Farfetch'd get off the food truck, and then went to the seafood area of the market and bought two eels . Heath planned to try his hand with these two eels. Of course, he also bought some crabs. After all, Farfetch'd still needs to practice more, and the crab roe soup dumplings made by Farfetch'd can also be sold and provided to customers as breakfast. Heath felt that Farfetch'd should do better this time, after all, there were only a few problems last time.
After returning to the dining car with the various ingredients he had bought, Heath set the destination for the autonomous driving, then washed his hands, took out an eel and placed it on the chopping board. The Farfetch'd Fjord was rolling noodles on the side, looking at Heath curiously while rolling the noodles. It didn't know why Heath bought these snakes that smelled strange and felt a little slippery.
The eel does look like a snake, but in fact, it can be distinguished if you look carefully. Heath touched the eel in front of him and closed his eyes. He hasn't taken eel bones for a long time. After all, he didn't have much money to buy eels after coming to this world. Eels are considered to be relatively expensive ingredients.
But just like after learning to ride a bicycle, even if you haven't ridden it for many years, you can quickly get the hang of it again. Heath quickly regained that feeling. Although he was still a little unfamiliar at the beginning, Heath's movements became faster and faster. In the shocked eyes of Farfetch'd, Heath took out the eel bone in a short while.
"How long did it take me?" Heath asked. Zoroa quickly looked down and saw that she had paused the program, but the time was now three minutes.
"Not fast enough..." Heath frowned. Three minutes was not considered a very fast speed in his previous life. Heath thought it might be because he was not familiar with it, but now Heath has found some feeling. He asked Zoroark to keep an eye on the countdown, and then took out another eel and started this attempt again.
This time Heath's operation was much smoother, his movements were fluid, although he still didn't have the natural feeling of having done eels frequently in his previous life, it was definitely better than last time.
But this time Heath still failed to control the time within one minute. When Heath was done, the time had exceeded one minute, which made Heath frown. The special characteristics of lava eel meant that lava eel was a food that required speed of hand. It seemed that Heath could only practice more. But now what Heath needed to do was to process the two cut eels on hand.
There are many ways to eat eel, but the more common way to eat it in China now is to make it according to the Japanese style of eel rice. The price of proper eel rice is actually very expensive, and it is also considered relatively expensive among takeouts. This has something to do with the price of eels. The eels Heath bought were not the kind of eels with good appearance. Eels with good appearance often cost more.
Heath began to cut the eels. He needed to make these eels into grilled eels and then into eel rice. However, there was eel rice in this world, so Heath didn't have to worry about no one knowing the name of the eel rice. Heath had never eaten the eel rice in this world, so it was difficult to comment on the taste, but the taste of the eel rice made by Heath himself would definitely not be too bad.
Thinking of this, Heath smeared the eel with sauce and set it aside. Now he just had to wait for the customers to place an order before starting to prepare it.
"Hello, can I have another serving of the pancake from yesterday?" It was a familiar voice. Heath knew who was coming without even looking up. It must be the weird old man whose taste changed. Heath came almost every day now. Heath felt that he had turned a customer into a regular.
"Okay, let's do it the same way as yesterday, okay?" Heath asked the old man in front of him with a smile.
"No, I want something sour this time. The sourer the better." The old man laughed heartily. Heath was stunned for a moment, but still obeyed the customer's wishes. Since the old man wanted to eat something sour, Heath would just make it sour.
Before making it, Heath took another look at the flavor the old man liked. It was still the same, without any changes. The sour taste was obviously not what the old man liked.
But Heath still did it. He made a pancake with vinegar and handed it to the old man. The old man paid for it, took his pancake with a smile, and left while eating. When the old man turned around, Heath noticed that the taste in his head had changed again.
However, none of this surprised Heath as much as what happened next, because he found that his customer satisfaction had actually increased a little!
"What's going on?" Heath was a little confused. He had tested it before and found that the satisfaction of all customers could only be increased by a little. In other words, one person could only provide Heath with a little satisfaction, but why did this old man provide two points?
