The new dish, the system's reward for leveling up, was called Treasured Pagoda Meat.
As the name suggested, it was meat that was piled up like a pagoda.
This was a dish that required a lot of knife skills. After visualizing the recipe, Bu Fang fell into deep thought.
The Treasured Pagoda Meat was made by stacking pieces of meat that were cut into hexagons according to strict sizes. The gap between each piece of meat had to be the same size. If the gap was too big or too small, it would affect the overall beauty of the Treasured Pagoda Meat. Moreover, it would greatly damage the texture of the meat.
This dish was provided by the system, so the selection of ingredients was also regulated by the system. Of course, Bu Fang could also choose to use ingredients of a higher grade. However, Bu Fang was not in a hurry. He could first use the ingredients provided by the system to practice his skills.
The difficulty of this dish was relatively high. In other words, the difficulty of the dishes provided by the system was getting higher and higher. It was not as easy as before.
After thinking for a long time, Bu Fang seemed to have a card up his sleeve. He gently exhaled, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
He walked to the bottom of the cabinet and pulled it open. Inside were the ingredients provided by the system.
A big piece of white spirit beast meat that was rich in spirit energy.
"Divine Physique Echelon Realm spirit beast, Mortal Transformation Spirit Pig. It lives in the Ancient Jade Holy Land of the Hidden Dragon Continent's Hidden Dragon Royal Court. It feeds on the spirit fruits of heaven and earth and drinks the spirit water of the Ancient Jade Spirit Pool to grow. Its meat is fat and tender, and its texture is delicious. Its meat has a unique fragrance and is rich in spirit energy. It is an excellent ingredient."
In his mind, the system's explanation of the spirit beast meat popped up.
This piece of white meat was pork. Moreover, it was not ordinary pork. It was pork from the Ancient Jade Holy Land.
Perhaps it was a spirit beast pig that was specially raised by the Holy Land.
Since it was a spirit beast pig that was specially raised by the Holy Land, there was no doubt that its meat quality was excellent.
Bu Fang took out the piece of meat. It was incomparably smooth, as if he was holding a piece of soap. It was so slippery that it seemed like it was about to break free from his hand.
However, Bu Fang was a chef after all, so he was very experienced in dealing with ingredients. With a shake of his hand, the piece of meat was sent flying into the air and landed on the stove.
A loud bang resounded.
The flesh was still trembling, and the fat was shaking incessantly. It was a ghastly sight.
Bu Fang clapped his hands and continued to take out other ingredients from the cupboard. The ingredients were quite plentiful. There were spiritual herbs and spiritual materials. Although their grades were not very high, they were considered very good spiritual materials in the Divine Physique Echelon Realm.
As Bu Fang grabbed the spiritual material, dense spiritual energy diffused out from the spiritual material and wrapped around his hand.
Bu Fang placed these spirit materials to the side and used the boiled Heaven Alps Spirit Spring Water to blanch them.
After being boiled in the Heaven Mountain Spirit Spring Water, not only did the spirit materials not become wrinkled, but they became even more vibrant. Bu Fang put them aside for later use.
He raised his arm that was wrapped in black bandages. Black smoke filled the air as the Black Turtle Constellation Wok floated out.
Currently, the Black Turtle Constellation Wok gave off an immense sense of oppression.
There seemed to be a khaki halo slowly flowing on it.
Bu Fang placed the Black Turtle Constellation Wok on the stove.
The Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife appeared in his left hand. With a twist of the knife, the knife flashed.
Bu Fang's gaze fell on the Transcendent Mortal Pork on the stove, and he prepared to process it.
This Treasured Pagoda Meat was a test of Bu Fang's knife skills. Knife skills were the most important step.
The knife skills were crucial. Once there was a mistake, the taste and beauty of the dish would be greatly affected.
With a flick of his finger, the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife spun in his hand. It was as though it was cutting through the air.
Bu Fang pressed down on the pork with one hand and squeezed it with his fingers. The bounciness that returned to him made Bu Fang quite satisfied. It was indeed a good ingredient.
In the next instant, Bu Fang's entire aura changed. He became aloof and domineering like a king.
Rip!
Like a shooting star tearing through the night, the pork was suddenly cut in half by the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife.
Holding the knife horizontally, he pressed down on the pork with one hand.
Swish. Slowly rubbing the kitchen knife, the piece of pork was cut off. It wasn't very thick.
The tip of the knife pointed downwards, and the few corners were cut off, turning the pork into a neat hexagonal shape.
This could be considered as completing the first step.
This step couldn't be completed. It was to make the base of the Treasured Pagoda Meat. However, the higher it was, the more of a test of his knife skills.
Bu Fang lightly exhaled, and his mental energy instantly spread out. Because this was a delicate task, there couldn't be the slightest mistake. Thus, Bu Fang released the mental energy hidden in his spirit sea.
The second piece of pork was cut off. Bu Fang's kitchen knife spun rapidly, dazzling and mysterious. It was as though a knife light was flashing.
Soon, the second piece of pork was cut off.
With a sweep of the knife, the pork was instantly sent flying. The hexagonal piece of pork spun in the air and landed on the base of the meat. It was flat and neat.
The gap between the two pieces of meat was less than the size of a fingernail.
Picking up another piece of meat, the knife light flashed, and the meat was trimmed.
The hexagonal piece of pork was placed on top of it.
It was still less than the size of a fingernail.
In the kitchen, the atmosphere was stifling and dull. Bu Fang's mental energy spread out, as though everything had turned into a quagmire.
Piece after piece of meat was stacked on top of each other. Each piece of meat was quite thin. When the last piece of meat was stacked, a pagoda-shaped meat pagoda was completed.
The meat pagoda was hexagonal, incomparably neat. The gap between each piece of meat had a strict requirement.
The spirit energy was dense, and the pork was trembling.
Bu Fang looked at it, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath. This dish … required a lot of energy.
However, there was no doubt that just looking at this dish was enough to make one's taste buds soar.
Bu Fang took out a blue-and-white porcelain plate and used his kitchen knife to cut across the surface of the stove. He lifted the entire piece of Treasured Pagoda Meat and placed it on the porcelain plate. Then, he started to heat the wok.
Opening his mouth, a ball of red Heaven and Earth Obsidian Flame surged out.
The flame burned fiercely, as though it was a mutated Heaven and Earth Obsidian Flame. Its temperature was much higher than the Ten Thousand Bestial Flames, and there was a unique energy exuding from it.
Swish.
He took out a jar of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine and opened the lid. Instantly, a rich wine aroma wafted out.
He poured some Heaven Alps Spirit Spring Water into the Black Turtle Constellation Wok and placed the Treasured Meat Pagoda inside. Steam rose from the wok from time to time.
The wine aroma lingered. Bu Fang poured the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine into the wok. Instantly, the wine flowed down from the top of the meat pagoda, covering every piece of meat. The rich wine aroma seeped into the meat.
Swish.
The meat pagoda that was watered by the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine became crystal clear, as though it was inlaid with a layer of glass.
The glass sparkled, and under the light, it emitted a dazzling radiance.
With a thought, the mouth of the Black Turtle Constellation Wok closed, as though it was covered with a lid.
However, he was steaming the Treasured Meat Pagoda.
During this process, Bu Fang started to process the other ingredients.
He picked up a vermilion spirit fruit. There were many patterns moving on the fruit, and there was even a faint red glow.
This was a Lantern Fruit.
It was like a lantern, and the core of the fruit was inedible.
The kitchen knife cut horizontally, cutting open the skin of the Lantern Fruit. He took out the golden core and threw it away.
Then, he sliced the Lantern Fruit and set it aside.
He picked up a ball of dark green Spirit Cauliflower. Bu Fang held the Spirit Cauliflower with one hand, and the knife light flickered continuously. He trimmed the Spirit Cauliflower until it was like a horned dragon. It was like a meticulously carved bonsai.
The other ingredients were also carved by him and placed on a plate, ready to be used.
He took out a long blue-and-white porcelain plate and placed the carved Spirit Cauliflower in a corner. He also scattered the sliced Lantern Fruit on top of it.
Gulp, gulp.
After doing all this, Bu Fang shifted his attention to the Black Turtle Constellation Wok. He stretched out his hand and placed it on top of the wok. He sent his consciousness into it and felt the flow of spirit energy within the wok.
His mental force was like a quiet stream that flowed slowly, controlling the spirit energy to shuttle between the ingredients.
In Bu Fang's perception, the Treasured Pagoda Meat in the Black Turtle Constellation Wok began to swell at a speed visible to the naked eye after it was cooked. As the meat expanded, the Treasured Pagoda Meat seemed even more majestic and imposing, emitting a domineering aura.
This was the domineering aura left behind by Bu Fang after he used the Overlord Thirteen Blades to cut the meat.
The Overlord Thirteen Blades was not only a knife technique used to fight against enemies, but it was also a knife technique used to process the ingredients. In other words, processing the ingredients was the most important, and fighting against enemies was secondary.
After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, the Treasured Pagoda Meat in the Black Turtle Constellation Wok was completely cooked. The Heavenly Alps Spirit Spring Water had evaporated completely, and the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine was absorbed by the Treasured Pagoda Meat.
This wine was able to remove the peculiar smell from the pork, and at the same time, it perfectly preserved the unique fragrance of the Transcendent Mortal Spirit Pig. It was extremely perfect.
A thought flashed through his mind.
The lid of the Black Turtle Constellation Wok was slowly opened. In an instant, steaming hot air and a rich fragrance of meat surged out from the Black Turtle Constellation Wok.
The heat wave seemed to transform into a mushroom cloud that surged up and soared to the ceiling.
Bu Fang's hand shook, and the Treasured Pagoda Meat was taken out.
After being cooked, the Treasured Pagoda Meat looked even more godly. The hexagonal pagoda body seemed to be coated with colored glass, incomparably exquisite. The meat emitted hot air and fragrance, and there was also a faint wine fragrance, which made it even more attractive.
With a sweep of the kitchen knife, the Treasured Pagoda Meat was picked up and placed on the long porcelain plate.
After washing it, he added oil and heated the wok.
His movements were smooth and swift, and he poured the processed ingredients into the Black Turtle Constellation Wok.
Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!
Steaming hot air surged up, and the fragrance of the ingredients burst forth, stirring up one's appetite.
These ingredients were quickly melted by Bu Fang.
They turned into a rich broth, which was golden and incomparably resplendent.
Swish.
With a shake of the wok, the golden broth was poured into the wok.
The broth was poured from the top of the Treasured Pagoda Meat.
Swish. It was like the sound of flowing water, with the sizzling sound of hot air.
Fragrance, spirit energy, and heat, the three intertwined endlessly.
The Treasured Pagoda Meat was instantly poured into a golden color. The golden glaze was resplendent and majestic, as if it had really turned into a pagoda, shocking one's eyes.
The jade-green spirit cauliflower and some other ingredients were arranged on the plate. It was like a beautiful scenery under the pagoda, full of flowers.
Sizzle!
The wok spatula stirred in the wok, and soon, a milky white broth was cooked.
Picking up the Black Turtle Constellation Wok, he poured the milky white broth into it. In an instant, the milky white broth occupied the porcelain plate.
It was as if it had turned into a small pond with sparkling blue waves.
The pond water was clear and white, and the spirit plants beside it were verdant and lush. Dots of color adorned it, and a golden pagoda stood majestically.
It was as beautiful as an intoxicating landscape painting.
Bu Fang put down the Black Turtle Constellation Wok, took a step back, and lightly exhaled.
Treasured Pagoda Meat … Done!
