Triple No-Stick, originally a famous dish from the Qing Dynasty's imperial kitchen, is known for its golden color, delicious taste, and the magical property of not sticking to plates, chopsticks, or teeth, hence the name "Triple No-Stick".
Triple No-Stick has the characteristics of a bright yellow luster, a soft and thick fluid, resembling neither a cake nor porridge, but having a tender and smooth texture with a sweet flavor, making it especially suitable for the elderly and children.
Its ingredients are simple, nothing more than egg yolks, starch, white sugar, water, and oil. The cooking process is not particularly difficult, but it requires constant stirring and frying, continuously adding oil during the frying process until it achieves a non-stick effect.
However, it is quite labor-intensive for the cook.
This is because the entire frying process needs to be sustained for about 10 minutes without stopping.
But for Qi Han, who was nearly level 30, this process is not as difficult as imagined.
After glancing at the 2 Star recipe he drew, Qi Han shrugged and proceeded to claim the last reward of the Time-limited Quest.
4 pieces of 2 Star Optional Recipe Fragments.
Having 4 fragments at once meant Qi Han could exchange for a new 2 Star recipe again, but he already had an idea. He quickly spoke up, "Ru Yi, list the alcoholic beverages from the 2 Star recipes."
Since the opening of the Small Shop in Shrek City, there had been constant complaints from customers that everything was great about Small Shop dishes except for the lack of alcohol.
This situation was still common at the new shop in Star Luo City.
The people of Douluo Continent are bold and love to drink, with many customers even bringing their own alcohol to pair with the shop's dishes.
It was time for Small Shop to add more alcoholic beverages.
"Sure." With Ru Yi nodding in agreement, the classification of 2 Star alcoholic beverages appeared before Qi Han.
This was Qi Han's first proper look at the 2 Star alcoholic beverages, and his expression suddenly became interesting, "Ru Yi, why haven't I heard of any of these drinks?"
"Because most of these drinks are brewed from celestial materials, treasures, or fruits of plant-based Spirit beasts," Ru Yi shrugged, "otherwise, how could they be considered 2 Star recipes?"
Well then.
Qi Han scratched his head, "How do I know which drink is better?"
"Well..." Ru Yi's big eyes turned, "You can taste a little of each drink, how about that?"
"Let's start with the first one then." Qi Han's face showed interest. These never-before-tasted fine wines made him itch with curiosity.
A small cup, the size of a finger, appeared in front of Qi Han, with a blue-green liquid flowing inside.
Ru Yi was right; it was just a sip.
Taking the cup and drinking the liquid in one gulp, Qi Han's face lit up.
As the wine entered his mouth, a sweet aroma immediately surged up, and the hidden floral fragrance in the liquid fully burst forth, filling his mouth with a long-lasting floral taste.
This was just the first one, yet it already surpassed any wine Qi Han had tasted in his previous life.
"The second one." After a while, Qi Han, with shining eyes, took the cup handed by Ru Yi and drank it in one gulp again.
...
After Ru Yi helped remove the negative effects of the alcohol, Qi Han tried all the hundreds of alcoholic beverages in the 2 Star recipes. After much deliberation, he chose a strong wine named "Blazing Cup" and exchanged it with 4 2 Star Optional Recipe Fragments.
This drink, when consumed, is like swallowing a ball of flame. It combines intense heat with a rich and mellow aroma, leaving an excellent aftertaste, which should be very suitable for the residents of Douluo Continent.
It is worth mentioning that the alcohol is provided directly by Ru Yi, so Qi Han does not need to learn how to brew it. Therefore, he doesn't need to enter the training space, and due to the ongoing training for Boiled Cabbage in Clear Broth, he cannot learn other dishes for the time being. Qi Han can directly put it on the shelves for sale.
This was the first time Qi Han experienced the joy of getting something without working for it.
There were still a few hours before the noon business hours. After exchanging the Blazing Cup, Qi Han entered the training space for Boiled Cabbage in Clear Broth.
After this period of practice, Qi Han could feel that he was not far from success.
...
Cao Pingzhi walked gloomily down the street, clutching the latest issue of the Food Critique Magazine magazine tightly in his hand.
Last night, he had been fired by the Food Critique Magazine editorial department.
The position of a Food Critic at the Food Critique Magazine editorial department was one that countless people would give anything to enter. Cao Pingzhi had spent a tremendous amount of time and effort, not to mention countless forced smiles, to become a part of it, only to have it all come to nothing now.
"Small Shop..."
Cao Pingzhi had never imagined that, as a Food Critic, he would ultimately fall because of a restaurant.
No, he couldn't just let it go!
A flicker of hatred flashed in Cao Pingzhi's eyes.
He decided to find Zhao Fenglai, who also had a grudge against Small Shop. The enemy of his enemy is his friend, and he needed to join forces with Zhao Fenglai to teach Small Shop a painful lesson.
Soon, he arrived at Fenglai Pavilion. Seeing Cao Pingzhi, Zhao Fenglai immediately greeted him with a beaming smile, "Mr. Cao, you're here? Shall we go to the Fenglai private room?"
Zhao Fenglai had also bought the latest issue of the Food Critique Magazine magazine at the first opportunity.
Faced with Small Shop's nearly overwhelming listing, Zhao Fenglai felt numb. Fortunately, his own restaurant had 5 dishes listed, which provided some comfort.
Although he had silently cursed Cao Pingzhi for his ineffectiveness, Zhao Fenglai knew he still needed him for future reviews, so he dared not show his anger and instead forced a smile.
Cao Pingzhi nodded reservedly and led the way to the Fenglai private room, with Zhao Fenglai following close behind, still smiling.
Entering the private room, Cao Pingzhi waved the Food Critique Magazine magazine in his hand and slowly began, "The latest issue of the magazine, have you seen it, Mr. Zhao?"
"Of course, I have," Zhao Fenglai nodded. Seeing Cao Pingzhi bring it up, he smoothly asked, "About Small Shop..."
"Small Shop somehow got incredibly lucky and caught the chief editor's attention," Cao Pingzhi said angrily. "Mu Liufeng personally went to Small Shop to taste and score their food. I couldn't stop him."
'So that's how it was', Zhao Fenglai's face turned bitter.
With the conversation flowing, Cao Pingzhi couldn't help but start complaining, "That damned Small Shop caused me to lose my job. Now, Mr. Zhao, we are in the same boat. Why don't we work together to deal with the Small Shop?"
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room became strange.
After saying this, Cao Pingzhi sensed something was off and turned to see Zhao Fenglai's smile slowly fading, "Mr. Zhao, you..."
"Mr. Cao, you mean..." Zhao Fenglai said in a cold tone, "You're no longer a Food Critic for Food Critique Magazine?"
"That's correct. Mr. Zhao, you have to help me!" Cao Pingzhi's words became more earnest.
"Help you?" Zhao Fenglai said, then let out a cold laugh.
"Xiao Pan, Xiao Zhang, come in." He called out to the door, and soon, two sturdy servants walked in.
Cao Pingzhi felt a growing sense of unease, "Mr. Zhao, what do you mean by this?"
"What do I mean?" Zhao Fenglai's smile turned sinister, "Xiao Pan, Xiao Zhang, strip him of everything valuable and throw him out!"
Without the title of Food Critique Magazine Food Critic, Cao Pingzhi was just an ordinary person. It was time for him to return the favors he had received from Zhao Fenglai!
