Chapter 732 New Year's Eve Dinner
"...Happy New Year, Sister Feng, you are really scary. I thought you were going to undergo some kind of hellish devil training." Heath took a deep breath. That's great. Sister Feng's hellish devil training is really not for humans to do. It 's not that Heath can't persist in doing it. After all, the reason why he has good physical fitness now is because Heath persisted under Sister Feng's training before. But having said that, Heath still can't stand that kind of devilish training.
That was really a painful thing. Heath still feels a little scared just thinking about it now.
"Hmph, if you were not Junsha but a chef, I would have sent you over for training long ago! Really, you were trained in the beginning, so how could you let a thief steal your things?" Junsha Feng glared at Heath with disappointment. The corners of Heath's mouth twitched. He didn't want to be stolen. After all, it would be a very troublesome thing if those documents were lost. But the problem was that even if they were stolen, there were too many people involved, and the guy who did it must be very powerful, otherwise Heath would not have been completely unaware of it.
Heath quickly began to change the subject. If they continued chatting like this, the training that was not supposed to happen would turn into training. Heath felt that it would be better for him to have some free time, so he quickly asked Sister Feng to take him to the cafeteria of the Junsha Brigade. The steamed pork with rice flour and braised beef would be prepared here. Heath also did some preparatory work in the dining car, so it was not very complicated to make now. As for helpers, Heath only called Farfetch'd, Snorlax and the others. Farfetch'd was enough to help him, and this time he made it according to Teacher Wu Gui's method.
Sister Feng watched for a while and left when she found there was nothing she could help with. However, before leaving, Sister Feng told Heath the dinner time in the evening, when all the Junshas would come to eat. Heath was a little curious why these Junshas didn't go home for dinner, after all, the Junshas also had families and parents.
"…Why? Because they are the Junshas from Vermilion Leaf City. What's more, it is everyone's habit to have dinner together today. Tomorrow they will go back to have dinner with their families." Junsha Feng said seriously, and Heath nodded. This reminded him of the cutest people in his previous life who had to be on duty during the New Year. They were also so hard-working, and there was not much Heath could do. The only thing he could do now was to prepare these New Year's Eve dishes and give the Junshas a good meal.
Heath cooked very quickly. Since the steamed pork with rice flour had been prepared in advance, all Heath needed to do now was to follow the steps of Onion Duck and Snorlax. Heath was currently processing the braised beef. If the braised beef was to be soft and edible, it would need to be cooked for a long time. Although Heath had Dialga's pressure cooker to speed up the process, the problem was that Dialga's pressure cooker was too small, and it would definitely not work for making large pot dishes. So Heath used the super large pot in the cafeteria, which allowed it to be made quickly, but the disadvantage was that it took a long time to cook.
Fortunately, there is still some time , which is enough time for Heath to make the braised beef.
"Heath, are you tired? Here's soda!" Lalulas came running over, then stood on tiptoe to lift the plate in his hand a little. Heath looked down and saw several glasses of soda on the plate, and they were iced. Although Heath didn't count them, he knew that the amount of soda must be just enough for himself and Farfetch'd.
"Thank you, Lalulas~" Heath freed his hand and rubbed Lalulas's little head, picked up a glass of soda, and took a sip. In an instant, all his fatigue seemed to dissipate a lot. Heath replenished his energy and continued to make the braised beef at hand with full energy.
The method of making braised beef is not very complicated. The only trouble is that you need to control the heat and the amount of seasoning. After all, this time it is a big pot dish of braised beef, and the general method really won’t work, so Heath was still very focused.
When people concentrate, time always passes especially quickly. After Heath wiped the sweat off his face and washed his hands, it was already afternoon and it was almost time for the New Year's Eve dinner.
"It's finally done." Heath nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the big pot in front of him. It must be said that Heath was very good at making small dishes for three or four people, one or two people, or medium dishes for a dozen people. However, if it was a large dish involving hundreds or thousands of people, then Master Wu Gui, who used to be in the kitchen, would be the best.
Heath now understands the saying that if three people walk together, one of them can be my teacher. In the field of cooking, Heath used to think that he was at the top, but now he knows that there are always people who are better than you. Compared with others, Heath's strength may be good, but if he competes with Master Wu Gui's master in making big pot dishes, then ten Heaths are not enough to beat Master Wu Gui.
Big pot dishes are not only about taste, but also about many tricks.
"Heath, is the New Year's Eve dinner ready? It's almost time for dinner." Sister Feng hurried in and asked. Heath nodded. Two big meat dishes. If necessary, Heath could also make some vegetarian dishes to entertain these Junshas. There was no problem at all. Master Wu Gui's big pot recipe recorded many dishes , and the methods of description were very simple.
For example, when making braised beef, he said, "The salt should be as big as a fist (crossed out). Damn, it's too little! It should be this big!", and he even added a picture, which is very down-to-earth.
Sister Feng breathed a sigh of relief, and then Heath saw a large group of Junshas coming in one after another. However, Sister Feng also asked Heath to prepare some boxed lunches. Heath did not ask. It was the same in Changqing City. Some Junshas had to be on duty during the New Year’s Eve dinner, so they could not eat in the cafeteria and could only eat outside. Boxed lunches were prepared for them. Although they were boxed lunches, they were actually very rich. After all, it was the New Year’s Eve dinner.
While preparing lunch boxes, Heath also saw the food sent by these Junshas. There were both hot and cold dishes, as well as delicacies from land and sea. Even the Alliance sent some food to comfort these Junshas.
Heath also sat down. Looking at the sumptuous dishes in front of him and Sister Feng, Sister Ling and the others sitting next to him, Heath also smiled. It was this kind of atmosphere that made Junsha and the others as close to Heath as family members.
It’s time to have the New Year’s Eve dinner!
