Forget it, let's heal my sadness with delicious food! Just now, when Wei'er mentioned the food storage container, I remembered that I bought live shrimp this morning. Let's have saltwater shrimp tonight! It's simple, easy, and delicious. I laid out the ingredients on the kitchen table, carefully selecting each one, ensuring they were fresh and unblemished. Then, I turned on my computer and adjusted the angle and lighting, striving to capture the clearest and most delicious moment. Everything was ready, waiting for me to show my skills. I prepared the ingredients, then turned on the camera and started recording. I explained the steps and precautions as I went along, explaining them in detail.

"My dear family members, every time I cook, everyone says it is difficult. Today I will teach you how to make a super simple dish!" After saying that, I slowly walked to the kitchen.

The camera switches to the kitchen, where he stands in front of the stove, fixing his laptop, holding a pair of scissors and a few live prawns.

"These are the fresh prawns I picked out personally at the market this morning!" Showing the prawns in his hand, the prawn meat was crystal clear and exuded a faint sea aroma.

"First, we need to prepare these prawns." I picked up a prawn and carefully observed its shape. Then, I carefully cut off the shrimp's antennae with scissors and explained, "This way, they won't get tangled when you cook them, and they'll look neater and more beautiful."

Then, I picked up a toothpick and said to the audience with a smile: "Next, we are going to use the toothpick to pick out the shrimp thread. Put the toothpick in from the third section of the shrimp, so it is easier to pick out the complete shrimp thread." I operated the toothpick skillfully, gently picked up the black line on the shrimp's back, and pulled it out quickly and accurately.

Looking at the screen, I seemed to be able to feel the audience's confusion, so I explained kindly: "Of course, if some of you think it is too troublesome to pick out the shrimp thread, you can choose not to pick it, and it is okay to cook it directly. It's just that you need to take out the shrimp thread when eating. However, some people choose not to remove the shrimp thread when eating shrimp. It all depends on personal habits!" I shrugged, indicating that I respect everyone's choice.

Okay, let's get cooking! First, pour an appropriate amount of water into the pot. Add chopped scallions, ginger slices, and Sichuan peppercorns, along with cooking wine to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor, and salt for seasoning. Once the water slowly boils and small bubbles appear, add the cleaned shrimp. Continue cooking over high heat until the water boils and the shrimp turn red and bend. Turn off the heat at this point, but be careful to adjust the steps based on the size of the shrimp you purchased. If your shrimp are larger, simmer them for an extra minute after turning off the heat. Smaller shrimp don't need to simmer for a minute longer; simply cook according to the time provided by the blogger. Finally, remove the shrimp from the pot and quickly plunge them into ice water for a short soak. This will help the shrimp become tender and chewy, enhancing their texture.

Okay, let's get started on making this delicious dip that's even good on shoe soles! First, we'll need some minced garlic, chopped green onions, and chili peppers. You can adjust the amount of these ingredients to your taste, but generally, a tablespoon of each is enough.

Next, let's prepare the dipping sauce. Start by adding three tablespoons of light soy sauce to enhance the umami and saltiness. Then, add one and a half tablespoons of balsamic vinegar. If you're not a vinegar person, you can reduce the amount to one tablespoon. I personally prefer a spicy and sour flavor, so I use one and a half tablespoons of vinegar. Next, add half a tablespoon of sugar for a more flavorful finish.

The final and crucial step is to heat a small amount of vegetable oil until boiling. Once the oil is hot, carefully pour it over the dipping sauce. A sizzling sound indicates that the oil has successfully infused the dipping sauce with its aroma. Now, a delicious dipping sauce is ready!

Whether you're using this dip for meat or vegetables, it's a delicious treat. It's easy to make and packed with flavor, sure to please your taste buds. Give it a try!

Okay, let's get started on the second dish! We bought some fresh cucumbers this morning, so let's use them all up to make a delicious fat-reducing meal tonight! After all, on a hot summer day, refreshing, weight-loss foods are always welcome! So, let me show you how to make this super delicious dish that goes really well with rice! First, carefully wash the cucumbers you just bought. Then, trim off the ends, leaving only the essential center. Remember, don't peel the cucumbers, as this will ensure a crisper texture. Next, cut the cucumbers in half, then cut each half into sixths, and finally into thirds. Sprinkle the sliced cucumbers evenly with salt and sugar, and toss thoroughly. Let them sit for half an hour. Once the cucumbers are done, they'll have wilted slightly, but they'll still retain their surprisingly crisp texture. Finally, rinse the cucumbers gently with cool, clear water to remove any salt.

Place the cleaned cucumbers in a large bowl and set aside. Next, prepare some minced garlic and chili peppers, chop them, and add them to the cucumbers. Next, take a bowl, cut an appropriate amount of dried chili peppers into segments, and add a tablespoon of Sichuan peppercorns. Then, slowly pour hot oil into the bowl, allowing the chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns to absorb the heat and release their rich aroma. Once the chili oil is ready, pour it over the cucumbers and blend thoroughly with the other seasonings. Next, add two tablespoons of light soy sauce, three tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, two tablespoons of sugar, and a teaspoon of MSG, and mix well. Finally, wearing disposable gloves, gently toss the cucumbers to help them absorb the seasoning. Once tossed, separate the cucumbers into food containers and store in the refrigerator. This way, the cucumbers will stay fresh for about a week, making them perfect for enjoying anytime. Whether served as a side dish or a snack, they offer a refreshing and refreshing experience.

Today's two dishes are ready, let's enjoy the food together! It's been a while since I last chatted with you all, let's go live and chat for a while! "

Just as I was about to bring the dishes to the living room, I heard a crisp doorbell ring. My heart couldn't help but tighten. Who would come to visit at this time? Confused, I walked to the door and looked out through the peephole. There stood a man in a courier uniform, holding a package. I opened the door, and the courier said to me with a smile, "Hello, are you Miss Li Yuansui? I'm a local delivery staff member. Here is a local delivery for you. Please sign for it."

As he finished speaking, he pulled a brightly colored bouquet and a letter from his work box. I was completely surprised. How could I possibly receive such a package? And it was delivered from within the same city? I took the scanner the courier handed me and pressed my fingerprint. After confirming it was me, the courier handed me the flowers and letter, explaining they were gifts from someone named Daphne.

I took the bouquet and letter, thanked the courier, and sent him off. As I watched him retreat, I realized I'd lost my composure and forgotten to thank him. So, I quickly called out to the courier, who was almost out of sight, "Thank you! You've worked so hard!" Only then did I slowly close the door, my thoughts drifting away.

Curiously, I opened the envelope. The letter inside exuded a delicate fragrance. After reading the contents, I learned that Daphne had left Ceres that afternoon. She didn't want to experience the sadness of parting, so she chose to leave quietly and alone. Thinking of the wonderful times we spent together, my heart was filled with emotion and longing. Although Daphne didn't say goodbye to me in person, this special gift made me feel her deep affection for me. I gently touched the beautiful bouquet of flowers, as if I could feel Daphne's warmth and care. Perhaps she also wanted to convey her blessings and love to me through these flowers.

Thinking back to the past month or so since arriving at StarCraft, besides Wei'er, only she and Lotta have provided me with support and companionship. I feel a pang of sadness, but also a sense of deep emotion and reluctance to leave. I know Daphne will always be there for us in other ways. We will continue to make Ceres Love Nursery School a success and a source of pride for her.

I believe Daphne would also wish us well, moving forward with her love and blessings. I will cherish this friendship and strive to become a better person, living up to her expectations of me. Perhaps one day, when we meet again and reminisce about this experience, my heart will still be filled with warmth and emotion. Daphne not only taught me how to discover my strengths, but also taught me that I have limitless possibilities. So, whenever and wherever I am, just thinking of her smile makes everything worthwhile.
