Yuan Zhou said, "Take a seat. It'll be ready in a while."
It was breakfast time. Yuan Zhou took out the ingredients he had prepared and placed them on the table. Then, he started to prepare them.
Suddenly, a figure leaped into the room at an extremely fast speed. Only Yuan Zhou's eyesight could see that it was a person, but Guo Penghao and Lei Ti were truly startled. When they saw a figure approaching them, it was hard for them not to be startled.
"Compass, you're cooking something delicious again. Hahaha, I haven't missed my fifth sense. You came at the right time. It's time for me, Big Wu Hai, to add some extra food to my meal."
That's right. It was Wuhai who dashed in from outside. No one could stop a beast that only wanted to eat.
"This is the recipe they provided. It's not on my menu," Yuan Zhou said.
"Hello, I'm Wuhai. I'm an artist. It's better to eat together. Please let me try," Wuhai said.
"Erm … Sure, it'll be better to eat together." Guo Penghao was the first to recover from his shock.
"Mr. Wu, feel free." Lei Ti knew about Wuhai.
"Nice to meet you. From today onwards, we are friends." Wuhai was very safe with food.
After a few words, Lei Ti and Guo Penghao shifted their gazes to Yuan Zhou. Honestly speaking, they were also very curious about how this dish was created.
Yuan Zhou was used to being stared at by so many people, especially Wuhai. He was already used to being stared at like this three times a day.
Unhurriedly, Yuan Zhou took out various ingredients and began preparing them.
"Why are there so many eggs? I don't even recognize some of them." Guo Penghao was confused when he saw the variety of ingredients.
"I don't know either. But there must be a reason why Boss Yuan took them out," Lei Ti said while scratching his head.
"That's true." Guo Penghao agreed.
It was no wonder that they were so astonished. There were indeed a lot of eggs laid out by Yuan Zhou. Among the eggs, there were green, red, yellow, and white ones, not to mention duck eggs, goose eggs, quail eggs, pigeon eggs, and so on.
While he was guessing, Yuan Zhou was doing all kinds of things in an orderly manner, cutting the ingredients into the shape he wanted.
"Screech!"
After smoke rose from the wok, Yuan Zhou began to put the ingredients that he had just processed into the wok.
"What did you see?" Lei Ti couldn't help but ask.
He felt that since Guo Penghao had been researching for more than ten years, he shouldn't be as clueless as him, right?
Unexpectedly, Guo Penghao said straightforwardly, "Even a food critic like you can't see it, so what can I see?"
Wuhai remained silent and did not participate in the conversation. He only cared about eating and did not have any other thoughts.
"Alright, you guys can try it," Yuan Zhou quickly brought out a plate.
This plate was slightly smaller than usual and there were no decorations on it. There was only a layer of something black at the bottom of the plate.
To be honest, even if they saw Yuan Zhou make it, they would not know what it was made of. It was dark black and had a glossy surface. When the light shone on it, it would even sparkle.
On top of the black layer, there was a huge white egg. It was about the size of two fists and was much bigger than the lion's head. It was not the usual oval shape, but more like a perfect circle. However, there were black lines on the surface that occupied half of the egg, giving it the feeling that it was round.
"It smells so sweet and fragrant. I think it will be delicious," Wuhai almost couldn't contain the saliva in his mouth. However, he still had to wait for the other two to start eating first.
Ever since he had Meaty Lot and Meaty Fatty, Wuhai had matured a lot.
Guo Penghao and Lei Ti looked at each other before standing up and bowing slightly to Yuan Zhou, "Thank you, Head Chef Yuan."
"As the saying goes, love your line of work. I like to study these things," Yuan Zhou waved his hand nonchalantly.
When Yuan Zhou invited them to try it again, the two of them used their chopsticks to poke the round egg. As they did not use much strength and were only poking at it casually, the surface of the egg bounced off.
"It feels like a Q," Guo Penghao poked it forcefully again. This time, it went in.
He felt something was about to flow out. He used his chopsticks to poke a hole. Then, a warm golden liquid flowed out. It was like an egg with a soft core. When he poked open the egg white, the yolk that had not solidified flowed out. It was still giving off some steam.
"This looks like an egg?" Guo Penghao looked at the tiny particles and studied them carefully.
On the other hand, Lei Ti was smarter. When he saw Guo Penghao make a small opening, he scooped up a spoonful of white, black, and golden. They were all in the spoon, and he finished them all in one pot.
When the egg entered his mouth, as it was the white one that first came into contact with his oral cavity, a cool feeling surged into his heart. The surface was not very cold, but it was unknown how it was processed, but it felt cold. Then, the inside turned golden. As the cool feeling disappeared, the hot feeling became even hotter.
When he bit the egg, he found that the white and black surface were soft and tender with a little chewiness. The taste was very good. Coupled with the active golden color of the egg, it exploded with a "pa" sound and the liquid inside flowed out. It was simply a feast for the taste buds.
"It's really delicious. Hot and cold alternating, crispy and delicious. Head Chef Yuan truly lives up to his reputation. I really admire him," Guo Penghao was beaming with joy as he ate.
As for Lei Ti, that was because he could not display his skills as a food critic. All he knew was to eat, eat, eat. Only the food that entered his stomach belonged to him.
Moreover, there was still Wu Hai. After Lei Ti and Guo Penghao had eaten a few mouthfuls, Wu Hai joined in impatiently. He was like a whirlwind sweeping away the clouds, causing Guo Penghao and the others to unknowingly speed up their eating.
When the three of them finished eating, Yuan Zhou said, "How is it? Is it the same as what was described in the ancient book?"
As he said that, he took out the ancient book that Guo Penghao had placed here along with the box and placed it in front of him.
"I feel that this is what our ancestors ate in the past. Only such delicious food would be recorded by our ancestors. Head Chef Yuan's culinary skills are truly amazing," Guo Penghao said solemnly.
Lei Ti nodded vigorously at the side, seemingly agreeing with him.
"Head Chef Yuan, can I write this dish in my food review?" Lei Ti asked.
"About that, as long as Mr. Guo agrees, I have no problem," Yuan Zhou said.
Guo Penghao immediately said, "No problem, just write it. If it wasn't for Head Chef Yuan, I wouldn't have been able to eat this delicacy."
Lei Ti planned to prepare this lost dish as soon as he returned.
Wu Hai curiously looked at the ancient book that had been opened. He could recognize every single word on it, but when put together, he had no idea what they meant.
"I think we can eat it again. I didn't eat it carefully just now," Wu Hai coughed and said.
