"Oh my god, Mr. Store Manager, what are you making? Why is it so smelly? "Rose questioned.
Originally, Rose came here to improve her mood. After all, many of her male Gray Elves had run away to the strange City of Hope. However, she did not expect to smell such a suffocating odor as soon as she entered.
"Oh, Miss Rose, long time no see. This is my new dish, durian chicken. Do you want to try it?" Chen Ze was quite happy to see Rose. After all, she was his first customer.
Although the first time they met was not a good memory, Chen Ze did not mind. If Rose did not come in, Chen Ze would not have known that his restaurant was different from a regular restaurant.
"Forget it. It smells like the excrement of a fallen hound from the abyss. It's suffocating. I don't think I'll put this thing in my mouth." Rose pouted, indicating that she could not accept it from a biological point of view.
"Tsk, I think it's delicious. Okay, what do you want to eat?" Chen Ze was a little helpless. Why did every girl hate the smell of durian? It was delicious.
Moreover, the system gave a good rating. This was a good rating. At least it was at the level of being a little delicious.
"I don't think I will eat it before you get rid of this smell." Rose sat on the chair and covered her nose with a look of disgust.
"Miss Rose and I have the same thoughts. Here, Miss Rose, here is your iced cola." Betty smiled happily. When she saw Chen Ze eating the durian chicken, she wondered if there was something wrong with her taste buds. Clearly, Chen Ze tasted so good. However, seeing that Rose was the same as her, Betty was relieved.
Chen Ze's mouth twitched, but he still turned on the kitchen hood and ate the durian chicken. Otherwise, there was no better way to dispose of it. He could not throw it away, right?
It was shameful to waste food.
"Betty, many of my male servants have run away. I feel that Hope City is really annoying." Rose was chatting with Betty with a face full of dissatisfaction. In the past, when Rose went to the toilet, there was always a male servant waiting on her.
"Eh? I haven't been in the Negative Plane for a long time, so I really don't know anything about Hope City. Didn't Miss Rose complain to the Dark Council? "Betty blinked.
"I did, but it's useless. The members of the Covenant of Darkness told me that the complaints about Hope City have filled up an entire room, but none of them have been dealt with," Rose said helplessly.
"It must be because there's a big shot behind the City of Hope." Betty only had this thought because in the Negative Plane, strength was the only criterion for status.
Moreover, Betty had heard from Chen Ze that the person behind Hope City was Hastur, an unbelievably powerful existence. Even calling out his name would attract attention.
However, even if she knew, Betty could not tell Rose this news because Hastur was highly confidential in the Negative Plane. Other than supernatural beings, other intelligent beings did not know about it.
"Sigh, if this continues, there will only be ten of my male servants left." Rose sighed and sniffed. The smell in the air was gone, which made her feel a little better.
"Mr. Manager, please give me today's special dish." Rose was too lazy to look at the menu. Anyway, no matter what Chen Ze cooked, it was delicious … except for the unknown object just now.
"Mm … Okay." Chen Ze nodded. He was a little full now, so it was good for digestion.
Chen Ze stretched his neck. He was thinking about what to cook today. Chen Ze had not cooked today's special dish for a long time. The main reason was that most of the customers already liked a dish, so they would order that dish when they came. They would not order today's special dish, which was very random.
"This is …" Chen Ze suddenly saw a bottle on the table. Chen Ze had not opened it for a long time. In the past, when he ate steamed buns, Chen Ze had to eat with it. He did not expect that it had been so long since he picked it up.
"Fermented bean curd. I remember there's a dish called fermented bean curd pork trotters. It's easy to make, and the taste is not bad." Chen Ze looked at the fermented bean curd in his hand thoughtfully.
Fermented bean curd was a delicious and cheap pickled vegetable. Many people liked it. It was convenient to eat and could be used to cook.
Chen Ze opened the fridge and looked inside. Fortunately, there were still a few pork trotters. Chen Ze used to roast them.
The cooking method of fermented bean curd pork trotters was very simple. There were only a few steps. Chen Ze took a look at it in the past, and he still remembered it in his heart. Chen Ze took out the pork trotters, cut them into pieces and blanched them. After removing the foam, Chen Ze added cooking wine, onion, and ginger.
However, this was not enough. The fermented bean curd pork trotters needed to be colored. Therefore, after Chen Ze stir-fried the rock sugar, he put the pork trotters in and stir-fried them with a big flame. He wanted the sugar color to be evenly spread on the pork trotters.
Next, he dissolved the fermented bean curd and removed the impurities. Although Chen Ze felt that some impurities would not affect the dish, in order to not affect the final evaluation of the dish, Chen Ze still removed the impurities.
After that, he added the fermented bean curd into the wok and stir-fried them together. Finally, he added the boiled water and brought it to a boil. After that, he simmered it slowly. Originally, it needed 60 minutes. However, with Hastur's 4x speed stone slab, Chen Ze only needed to simmer it for 15 minutes.
Looking at the pork trotters in the wok, Chen Ze did not continue to care about it. Instead, he started to make other side dishes. After all, although the fermented bean curd pork trotters were delicious, it would not be good if there were no vegetables.
After thinking for a while, Chen Ze still made a serving of stir-fried cabbage. Then, he put it aside and started to make the dessert.
After 15 minutes, Chen Ze placed the fermented bean curd pork trotters on a plate. Then, he called Betty and brought the dish out.
"What is this?" Rose blinked her eyes. What was this red thing in front of her?
"Fermented bean curd pork trotters. Mr. Store Manager said this is today's special dish." Betty swallowed her saliva. This dish was very fragrant, and Betty was a little unable to control herself.
"Then I'll try it. However, the dishes made by Mr. Store Manager are all pretty good, except for the Dark Cloud Covering Gold at the beginning." Rose smiled. Then, she picked up a piece of pork trotters and put it into her mouth.
