Chapter 271 Pocket Meat
Heath looked at the piece of pork fat in front of him and fell into deep thought. It must be said that pork fat is a very special ingredient. In the past, pork fat was the white moonlight in the hearts of countless people in special times. At that time, being able to eat it until your mouth was full of oil was an adjective to describe other people's wealthy family. But now it is not the case. With the development of the times, people began to have higher requirements on diet, and fat has become synonymous with unhealthy, but this does not mean that fat is not a good ingredient.
Although many people will subconsciously shudder when they see fat, and feel the greasy taste of fat in their mouths, fat is actually very good, it just requires higher cooking skills.
Nowadays, pork fat is generally used to extract oil, and the oil residue removed after extracting the oil can be eaten. This is also the most basic method, but Heath actually does not intend to use this tricky method. Heath has a better method in mind, but Heath needs to check the quality of this piece of pork fat.
What Heath planned to make this time was a dish called pocket meat, but this special dish of pocket meat has very high requirements for fat. Generally speaking, only the best piece of fat on a pig, the pure white one without any other color, the one that is oily but not greasy, is the best pocket meat.
However, the piece of fat brought by the guest was of very good quality. Heath nodded with satisfaction. He had no complaints about this piece of fat. It was very suitable for the cooking method of pocket meat. However, if pocket meat was to be cooked deliciously, the requirements for the chef were also very high.
Pocket meat, as the name suggests, is actually to hold a piece of pork fat in your hand and cut a knife in the middle of the fat, but not too deep so as not to pierce the fat, so that the fat is like an open pocket. Put the ingredients that need to be heated into it, and after steaming the fat, add various seasonings into it. In this way, a pocket meat is ready.
However, removing the greasiness from the fat is a problem. After all, the greasy taste will always exist no matter how the fat is cooked. So all Heath can do is to make this pocket of meat not so unacceptable to eat. Fortunately, only two servings of this pocket of meat can be made, so Heath is not worried that the customers will eat too much and feel sick.
"Why did you think of eating here? You are crazy. Didn't you see the hands behind him? Let that pervert... Ugh... Sorry, I feel like vomiting just thinking about it." Deoxys' expression was not very good. He covered his mouth and it could be seen that he was in pain.
"If the pressure cooker cannot be retrieved, then I just hope that it can play the role it was originally meant to in the hands of an excellent chef ." Dialga had a cold face, but from the bulging veins on his hands it could be seen that Dialga was not in a very good mood.
"Two guests, here are your pocket meats. Please enjoy them." Heath walked over with the pocket meat in his hand, smiling. Dialga had already paid for the meal, one hundred and twenty Alliance coins, which was equivalent to sixty Alliance coins per piece of fat meat, which was still very profitable.
Heath did not go to watch the two guests eat, but turned back to the dining car and began to clean his kitchen utensils. After the pocket meat was cooked, the steamer had to be cleaned, otherwise the oil on it would cause great trouble to the dishes below. Preventing the ingredients from mixing with each other's flavors is a basic skill for a chef.
This is also the reason why some dishes in some small restaurants have the taste of other ingredients or vegetables. This problem occurs when the chef does not wash the pots and kitchen utensils after cooking.
[You entertained Dialga, and you gained some time]
[You entertained Deoxys, and you obtained the space virus]
Heath was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the two guests in front of him in surprise. These two guests turned out to be Dialga and Deoxys? This news was really shocking. Heath had never thought that these were mythical beasts!
Moreover, there are two mythical beasts that appear in the form of male humans. Heath had always thought that mythical beasts were all girls, but he didn't expect that there would be ones in male form. This surprised Heath a little.
[I am no longer a human being: 1/4]
Seath looked at Dialga and Deoxys with joy. One of these two guests was actually satisfied with his meal? This was really good news. Seath breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had just examined his guests with the eyes of a chef. Otherwise, it would be difficult to satisfy one of them with his dishes.
But why did they give the guests some strange things this time? Heath touched his pocket and found two small bottles. Heath took them out and looked at them. One of the two bottles was golden and the other was green. There was nothing in the golden bottle, and there was nothing in the green bottle either.
[A little time: After opening the bottle, the user's life span can be extended by one hour. +1+1+...]
[Space Virus: Allows a Pokémon to acquire the 'Virus Status', which has a high probability of promoting the Pokémon's evolution within five minutes. This function is ineffective on Pokémon that have not evolved.]
Heath was stunned for a moment. Both of these things seemed to give Heath a feeling of incomprehensible power. However, it must be said that these two things were not very good, but they did not seem to be very bad either. They had their own special uses. Heath just had not figured out how to use them yet, and this cosmic virus seemed a bit useless to Heath.
The evolution of Pokémon requires the accumulation of its own strength, just like Charmander. When the strength is reached, it will evolve naturally without realizing it, and its strength after evolution is not bad, giving a feeling of accumulation of strength for a breakthrough. However, if a cosmic virus is used, even if the Pokémon evolves, but the Pokémon has not accumulated enough strength, then the combat effectiveness after evolution will naturally become a problem.
In this case, a little time is more valuable, but this also makes Heath realize that his golden finger seems to be able to give him something to prolong his life.
"It tastes good." Dialga nodded. He felt that his pressure cooker was no longer in the wrong hands. However, he felt a little distressed when he thought that the pressure cooker he had spent so much effort to make would not belong to him in the future. This was probably the feeling of marrying off a daughter.
"...Cook well!" Dialga yelled at Seath indignantly. The huge sound wave made Seath's ears a little deaf. Deoxys also ran with Dialga with a smile. The taste of this pocket meat was really good. Deoxys liked it very much. He even felt that other meals he had eaten were not as delicious as those cooked by Seath. He was very satisfied with Seath's meal.
