Chapter 190 Sakaki wants to eat braised noodles
Although Heath was very curious about why Karenya, the host, gave him books on psychology, he did not care too much about it. Instead, he began to practice his speed in making fresh eels. Although the speed of making lava eels was limited to one minute, Heath felt that the faster the better.
"How long?" Heath looked at the complete eel bone in front of him, wiped the sweat from his forehead, then looked at the Onion Duck beside him and asked. The Onion Duck took out a stopwatch, turned it over and showed it to Heath. It was one minute and two seconds.
Heath frowned, it still didn't work. Although it only gave him two more seconds, in just these two seconds, the lava eel had been burned to ashes from a certain angle. Heath shook his head helplessly. It seemed that his hand speed needed to be improved.
"Onion?" Farfetch'd looked at Heath and tentatively stretched out his wings. Heath was stunned for a moment. Zoroark was still reading comics in the lounge of the dining car, so he couldn't help Heath translate for the time being. However, Heath could barely guess what Farfetch'd meant.
"Do you want to try?" Heath looked at the Onion Duck with interest. Could it be that this little guy was planning to try making eel rice? But this was also a good thing. Heath remembered that Onion Duck's knife skills were very good. Maybe if Onion Duck did it himself, he could really remove the eel bones within a minute.
The Farfetch'd duck nodded confidently. Heath took out an eel and placed it on the chopping board. Then he gave up his seat and stood aside, watching curiously. He wanted to see how fast the Farfetch'd duck could be.
After a while, Heath looked at the messy eel and the eel meat that was chopped into paste. He then looked at the Onion Duck that was embarrassedly lowering its head beside him and sighed. Although the little guy was full of confidence, in fact, cooking eel bones requires more than just good knife skills. It is also very important to study and master the eel bones, just like butchering a cow. Only with constant practice and familiarity can the eel bones be completely removed.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so few chefs who could obtain eel bones in the previous life.
"It's okay, it's okay, let's try again next time... Just chop the eel meat into puree first." Heath looked at the embarrassed Onion Duck and comforted it. It was impossible to make eel rice with this eel now. Heath felt that he might as well chop the eel meat into puree first, and then make the eels into other things.
Fortunately, Heath bought a few more eels today, otherwise he would have to go buy an eel to deliver the takeaway.
"Heath, is Farfetch'd still studying?" It was Mr. Sakaki's voice. Heath looked up and saw that it was indeed Mr. Sakaki. Mr. Sakaki had changed his clothes today , but the quality of the clothes still looked very good. Wearing them on Sakaki gave off a mature and stable feeling.
Heath took a curious look at Sakaki's belly. He remembered that Sakaki liked to drink beer. Fortunately, Sakaki had a good habit of exercising, otherwise Sakaki might become a middle-aged man with a beer belly in the future. But when he thought about it carefully, Mr. Sakaki having a beer belly, Heath thought it seemed to be a rather interesting thing.
"Well, Farfetch'd is very dedicated to learning cooking and has quite a talent." Heath praised Farfetch'd with a smile, then silently kept in mind the dark history of Farfetch'd's failed cooking. After all, Farfetch'd was Heath's Pokémon, and he still had to maintain the self-esteem of his Pokémon.
"That's great...what are you planning to do ?" Mr. Sakaki nodded with a smile, and then looked at the eel paste on Heath's chopping board with a curious look.
"Well... I plan to make it into fish balls. Curry fish balls taste good too." Heath talked about the dish he had thought of before. In fact, fish balls are not made of eel meat, but Heath has his own opinion. Besides, eels can no longer be made into grilled eels, so fish balls are also a good choice.
"Curry? The taste of curry is really special. I remember that the real curry can only be found in the special new area of the alliance. The curry from that new alliance area has changed a little when it was spread to our Kanto area." Mr. Sakaki's eyes lit up, and then he talked freely.
Heath listened with a smile. Sakaki was actually a very good gym leader, otherwise he would not have been able to get the title of Sakaki of the Earth. Also, Sakaki also had some knowledge of cooking.
The area that Sakaki mentioned is actually similar to India in the previous life, but that area is newly discovered by the Alliance, and the types of Pokémon there are different from those in other places. The Alliance is still investigating and researching there, and it is still unknown when it will be expanded into a formal Alliance area.
"Mr. Sakaki, would you like something to eat for breakfast?" Heath asked with a smile while looking at Sakaki in front of him.
"For me, give me a bowl of braised noodles. I want to eat braised noodles." Sakaki thought of the noodles that Heath made for him when he went to his house once before. The taste was very good.
Heath was stunned for a moment, then nodded. Of course, braised noodles could be made, but what kind of meat to put in the braised noodles was a question worth pondering.
Braised noodles are actually similar to dry noodles, except that braised noodles still have some soup, but the soup is very little. The method of making braised noodles is also similar to that of dry noodles, and Heath’s cooking is considered simple. As for the topping, or topping of the braised noodles, Heath finally decided to use diced braised tofu and then match it with some braised chicken cubes.
The taste of this dish is also very good. The only pity is that the braised tofu made by Heath is not the special small-block braised tofu that you buy, but the braised tofu made by cutting large blocks of braised tofu into small pieces. Although it is not inedible, the taste is still a little worse.
"Mr. Sakaki, here is your braised noodles. Please enjoy." Heath brought the braised noodles over. Sakaki was sitting on a chair looking at his mobile phone. Heath did not look at the content of Sakaki's mobile phone. This was very rude. Heath always knew the importance of these things.
However, Heath remembered that Sakaki should have two mobile phones, one for personal matters and one for alliance matters.
"Thank you, Heath." After nodding his thanks, Sakaki put down his phone, picked up the chopsticks, and began stirring the braised noodles. The braised noodles needed to be stirred evenly to achieve the best taste.
Sakaki is an old gourmet, so he is very experienced in eating. This kind of guest makes the chef worry-free.
