Chapter 240 Adu: Guess what kind of king I am
"Huh? Boy, why are you here again? Didn't I already teach you how to make edible quartz?" Mr. Dakong looked at Heath who had returned with a curious expression on his face. Next to Mr. Dakong, an old woman who looked elderly had red eyes, as if she had just cried.
"Mr. Dakong, I want to know the recipe of edible quartz. I made a portion of edible quartz today, but I made it according to the method of cold jellyfish salad, and the taste was not very good." Heath asked with some distress. Although Heath was also very curious about the relationship between the old lady next to him and Mr. Dakong, looking at the old lady's red eyes, Heath still didn't ask.
Heath felt that this person probably had encountered some sad things, and it was very likely related .
"Recipe, do you know why no one has made or learned edible quartz yet?" Mr. Dakong sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked at Heath with a smile.
"Because this edible quartz doesn't taste good?" Heath thought of a possibility. After all, there was such a saying in his previous life that if a new ingredient is not widely popularized in China, it proves that this thing is really not delicious.
If he had to give an example, Heath thought turkey was a good example. After all, in the Chinese people's previous memories, turkey was a delicacy that people in Europe and the United States ate once a year. Looking at those big chickens and chicken legs, people had an unstoppable urge to swallow their saliva. Many people even thought that turkey must be delicious.
But as China's economy developed, turkey gradually changed from something that looked very tempting but out of reach in cartoons and movies to a delicacy that is within reach. But even so, turkey has not been widely promoted in China because the taste of turkey is really not that good.
Unlike ordinary chicken, ordinary chicken, three-yellow chicken, native chicken, and black chicken produced in China have tender and basically will not taste bad no matter how they are cooked. There are even some methods of cooking chicken that have been developed. However, the meat of turkey is very tough and the taste is not very good. Therefore, this once delicious food in childhood has not gained loyal fans in China until now.
In Heath's opinion, edible quartz is actually similar to the turkey. After all, edible quartz is very troublesome to make. Secondly, the taste of edible quartz is not very good after it is made. It is difficult to taste the flavor. It tastes like eating a plastic bag. It tastes like chewing wax and is even worse than jellyfish.
At least the jellyfish tastes good when eaten cold, but what about edible quartz? It tastes like nothing. Such a bad thing will naturally not be popular with everyone, and it is also cumbersome to make. It is normal for it to be eliminated by the market.
"Yes, that's because it tastes bad. It's hard to absorb the flavor of this thing, or even impossible to absorb the flavor at all. The greatest use of this thing is probably to show how much patience a chef has to make such a unique food." Mr. Dakong said seriously. He also learned from a teacher at the beginning, but edible quartz was also given the name of ornamental at that time before it could be sold.
According to the chefs at that time, making edible quartz was not a delicacy, but an attitude, an attitude that proved that one was serious about cooking.
"Heath, there is no recipe. My master and I all have an attitude towards this thing. This edible quartz is actually an attitude, not anything else." This was Mr. Dakong's answer.
Heath walked out of the nursing home in a daze. The answer he got from Mr. Dakong caught Heath off guard, but Heath always felt that things were not that simple. If edible quartz was really that bad, then why would his golden finger list edible quartz as a specialty food of the metropolis of Quartz Alliance?
With such doubts in mind, Heath took the dining car back to Junsha's dormitory area. He stopped the car and did not rush to the cafeteria to cook. Instead, he lay on the bed, looking at the lights outside the window, and squinted his eyes. He was thinking in his mind about those ingredients that were similar to edible quartz in his previous life, and how they would be cooked.
But after thinking for a long time, Heath still couldn't think of anything. But then Heath discovered a surprising fact. Since he ate edible quartz, he has not felt hungry. The hunger-resistant ability of edible quartz is very good.
"This stuff looks a bit like the rice noodles in Yun Province... or sweet potato noodles?" Heath touched his chin. He recalled the things he saw after making edible quartz. The soft and transparent stuff looked like strands of rice noodles. This gave Heath a bold idea. He wanted to try to make a special food from Yun Province.
Rice noodles is the name used in Yunnan Province. It can be called rice vermicelli in other places. However, the production methods vary depending on the region. However, the taste is indeed very good. Heath thought of a special delicacy he had eaten in Yunnan Province when he traveled there before, which is the famous cross-bridge rice noodles in Yunnan Province.
"If you want to make an edible quartz version of cross-bridge rice noodles, you will need at least one kilogram of edible quartz." Heath touched his chin. One kilogram of edible quartz may only produce about 500 grams of the finished product, or even less than 500 grams.
However, after he had an idea in his mind, Heath felt a lot more relaxed. He got off the dining car humming a tune and walked towards the cafeteria with the Farfalle. After figuring out how to eat edible quartz, Heath planned to go to the next city and continue his next trip.
But the prerequisite is that edible quartz can be made smoothly, which is the key factor.
When Heath arrived at the cafeteria, he saw Lao Junsha sitting in the cafeteria chatting with a man. When Heath saw the other person, he was stunned. Wasn't the man in front of him the flying-type... no, the dragon-type king Adu whom he had seen in the news on his mobile phone before?
Why is he here?
