The soaked soybeans were almost ready. Meg prepared the ingredients for the roujiamo while grinding the soybeans in the grinder. He turned around and glanced at Yabemiya. He had put in more soybeans yesterday, so she could try the new dish and see if it suited the tastes of the people in this world.
He put the ground soy milk into the pot, and the faint smell of soybeans drifted out of the kitchen.
"It smells so good." Yabemiya's eyes lit up. The aroma of soybeans in the air reminded her of when she was a child. Her mother would soak soybeans in a bowl for a night, add some oil and salt, and cook them in a pot. Soon, the aroma of soybeans would fill the air. The soybeans cooked in this way were fragrant and sweet. However, she hadn't eaten them for many years. Could it be that Mag's new dish was boiled soybeans?
After ordering the tofu pudding, pouring the prepared syrup and sauce over it, and sprinkling the savory tofu pudding with all kinds of side dishes, Meg walked out of the kitchen with two bowls of tofu pudding. He placed them in front of Yabemiya and said with a smile, "The new dish is tofu pudding. Please try it."
"Tofu pudding?" Yabemiya's eyes lit up as she looked at the two white porcelain bowls in front of her. There was something as white and soft as jade in each of the white porcelain bowls. When it was placed on the table, it wobbled slightly. It looked very elastic and very adorable.
The bowl on the left was covered with fragrant syrup, while the bowl on the right was filled with all types of chopped side dishes. The faint aroma of tofu pudding and syrup wafted toward her, and she couldn't help but swallow as her gaze fell on the bowl of sweet tofu pudding with orange syrup, and she was unable to look away.
"The bowl on the left has sweet tofu pudding, and the bowl on the right has savory tofu pudding. You can choose according to your taste," Meg said. Judging from Yabemiya's expression, it wasn't hard to guess the result.
"But … it's not noon yet." Yabemiya looked between Meg and the tofu pudding in front of her. She was a little hesitant.
"This is a new dish that hasn't been officially sold yet. Tasting is also one of the jobs of the restaurant staff. You can choose." Meg shook his head with a smile. Naturally, he could guess her thoughts.
Yabemiya's eyes lit up. She didn't expect that her job would include trying out new products. Although both bowls of tofu pudding looked delicious, the one on the left was clearly more appealing. She looked up at Meg and asked, "Then … can I choose the sweet one?"
"Of course." Meg nodded with a smile, but he was feeling a little frustrated. He had never tasted tofu pudding before, yet he had chosen the sweet tofu pudding.
But now, as the owner of the restaurant, he had decided not to participate in the dispute between the two parties. And now, he really began to try to understand everyone's different tastes.
For example, Mobai ate Yangzhou fried rice every day without ever tasting a second roujiamo. Sargeras only ate roujiamo from the beginning to the end. This was something that he had seen with his own eyes after becoming the owner of the restaurant, and he had gradually come to understand it.
Furthermore, the restaurant was going to sell both sweet and savory tofu pudding in the future, so it was completely within his expectations that there would be more customers who liked sweet tofu pudding. However, unlike in his previous life, where there was an accumulation of differences between the north and the south, the conflict between savory and sweet tofu pudding shouldn't be too exaggerated in this world.
After receiving Meg's permission, Yabemiya carefully placed the sweet tofu pudding in front of her. She gently picked up the white spoon beside her and slowly dug in from the corner.
It was like egg custard, but more springy. She dug into the tofu pudding that was covered by the golden-red syrup with the spoon. The cut was as white as jade, but it was soon covered by the sticky syrup again. She slowly dug in a spoonful. The tofu pudding was wrapped in the crystal-clear syrup and slightly shook in the spoon. It was as delicate as a piece of art.
"It's so beautiful." Yabemiya was a little entranced by the sight of the tofu pudding, but she couldn't help but put it into her mouth. The tender tofu pudding melted almost as soon as it entered her mouth, and the syrup that was wrapped around the tofu pudding was so rich and sweet that she couldn't help but close her eyes.
What a sweet taste. This feeling of happiness made her feel as if she had suddenly fallen into a pool filled with candy. As long as she stretched out her hand, she would be able to grab the sweetest and most delicious candy. This had been her childhood dream. However, since she was young, candy had always been a luxury to her. There were too many days when she was hungry and did not even dare to hope for a sweet feeling.
A tear rolled down Yabemiya's face and dripped onto the table. This feeling of happiness made her unable to control her emotions.
She swallowed a mouthful of tofu pudding, but it didn't taste sweet at all. There was a faint taste of tofu pudding in her mouth, and it was sweet but not greasy. She opened her eyes and stared at the small bowl in front of her. She couldn't help but put another spoonful of tofu pudding into her mouth. The feeling of happiness was pushed to the peak by spoonful after spoonful.
"Ding!"
The spoon hit the bottom of the bowl, and Yabemiya opened her eyes. There was only a little orange syrup left in the bowl, and she faltered slightly upon seeing that she had already finished all of the tofu pudding. She couldn't help but lick the bottom of the bowl. The sweet syrup was simply too alluring.
"Was it good?" Meg asked with an expectant look on his face. He could already guess the answer from Yabemiya's actions. The tofu pudding's debut in this world seemed to be quite good.
"Yes, it's super delicious! It's so sweet and soft; it's so delicious!" Yabemiya put down the bowl with a blush on her face. She had already embarrassed herself by licking the plate two days ago, but the taste was simply too alluring, and she couldn't help but lick the bowl again. However, she still nodded vigorously.
She paused momentarily before stroking her own face with elation. "Also, my face feels cool, and my skin seems to have become even more supple."
"Does it have cosmetic effects as well?" Meg was also a little surprised to hear this. He had been looking forward to seeing what additional effects the tofu pudding would have, but he didn't think that it would have cosmetic effects. This was an irresistible temptation for women, and if the tofu pudding's cosmetic effects were common, then it was entirely possible that it would become a must-order dish for all female customers.
"Do you want to try the salty one?" Meg asked. Perhaps Yabemiya had only tasted the sweet tofu pudding first, and that was why Yabemiya found the sweet tofu pudding to be delicious. Perhaps she would be able to find her true faith after tasting the salty one.
