The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability

At this moment, Mo Liuyun stepped forward, cupped his hands in a respectful bow, and said, "Please forgive me, esteemed chefs. It's not that my culinary skills are particularly outstanding; it's just that I've been a glutton since childhood, possessing a discerning palate. I've also frequently traveled with my family elders, acquiring some uncommon seasonings, which I've simply developed through experimentation in my spare time. I'm fortunate to have met Manager Wang and gained his appreciation, and it's an honor to learn about the myriad flavors of life with you all. Let's discuss and explore together, and I hope that together we can make Wangjiang Pavilion the premier restaurant in Beili!"

"No, no! You're too kind, young master."

"Young master's culinary skills are amazing, I am completely convinced!"

"Please give me your guidance, young master."

Manager Wang raised his hand to interrupt, saying, "Gentlemen, time is precious. The reason we invited Young Master Li here today is threefold: first, to reform and improve the dishes we have prepared; second, to guide you on how to use the new seasonings; and third, at the end of each month thereafter, Young Master Li will teach you two new dishes. I hope you will study diligently. There will be an assessment three months later, and those who perform exceptionally well will have their wages doubled."

"But let me make it clear beforehand that all the culinary skills learned in this shop must not be passed on to outsiders. If it is discovered, you were all originally slaves who achieved your current status only because of your skills. But your indentures are in my hands. If I kill you, it will also implicate your entire family. Wealth is tempting, but we'll see if you have the life to enjoy it. Do you all understand?" Manager Wang finished speaking and his cold gaze swept across everyone's faces.

Everyone knew that the shopkeeper appeared gentle but was actually ruthless. Hearing his words and being glanced at by him, they all felt a chill run down their spines! They hurriedly lowered their heads and replied, "We will follow the shopkeeper's teachings."

Mo Liuyun laughed and said, "Everyone, don't be nervous. The shopkeeper is just reminding you that if you do nothing wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night!"

Let's start by talking about removing the fishy smell. The fishy smell mainly comes from the abdominal membrane and the mucus on the skin. Cleaning these two parts will greatly reduce the fishy smell. Also, look at these seasonings: scallions, ginger, and garlic. They can remove the fishy smell and enhance the aroma, and are often used in meat cooking. Vegetables can also be stir-fried with garlic in oil to create a garlicky flavor.

"Steamed fish should not be steamed for too long, and something should be placed under the plate before steaming. The fish broth should be discarded and not used. Marinating time should not be too long, as it will affect the tenderness of the fish. For braised pork, the skin should be seared first to remove the fishy smell, and the pork should be blanched before braising. When cooking fish, you can add some Shaoxing wine, which has the effect of removing fishy smell and enhancing aroma! As for bamboo shoots, after blanching, they should be soaked in cold water to ensure they are not bitter and remain crisp! For fish slices, shredded meat, or sliced ​​meat, you can marinate them with cornstarch or egg white to make the meat tender and smooth..."

The shopkeeper stood by, watching Mo Liuyun explain and demonstrate, before leaving and going to the third floor.

On the third floor, Nangong Li and Mr. Jiang were playing chess. When he saw him come in, he asked without looking up, "Is it done?"

The innkeeper said, "We are explaining the dishes. Would you like to dine today, sir?"

Before Nangong Li could speak, Mr. Jiang hurriedly said, "You've all tried it, but I haven't. An Yi has been raving about how it's the best thing in the world. I don't care, we can't be biased. I want to eat boiled pork slices and pickled fish too!"

Nangong Li chuckled and said, "Then let's make these two dishes again."

"Yes, I will go and deliver the message right away!" After saying that, he turned and went downstairs.

The kitchen staff could clearly hear Mo Liuyun's voice, with occasional other voices ringing out. Mo Liuyun answered each one. When the manager came in, he said to Mo Liuyun, "I wonder if you could teach us how to make the pickled fish and boiled pork slices today? We just had some distinguished guests who, upon learning of the new dishes, specifically requested to try them. We hope you will grant us permission."

Mo Liuyun said, "No problem. Then let's teach these two new dishes today. Please let the two masters make them with me. If there's anything you don't understand, I can give you some pointers on the spot."

Mo Liuyun guessed that Gu Ji was the mastermind behind the scenes. Today, she originally planned to teach a different dish. Since there was such a request, she would definitely have to fulfill it, after all, she couldn't offend the boss.

So, the three of them, including Mo Liuyun, started making sauerkraut fish together. Mo Liuyun explained every step, from cleaning and deboning the fish, slicing the fish fillets, marinating and simmering the broth, to stir-frying the sauerkraut, in great detail. Everyone listened intently, afraid of missing a single explanation or step in the process. This was something they couldn't learn even if they paid an apprentice outside. Mo Liuyun was very generous with his knowledge, which made everyone admire him even more and study even harder. Before long, three pots of sauerkraut fish were ready. They were sprinkled with minced garlic and drizzled with hot oil. Instantly, the kitchen was filled with sneezes. It smelled delicious, but it was also really pungent!

Mo Liuyun tasted the other two chefs' dishes, finding them to be about 70% cooked. He then set aside a small bowl of his own for the two chefs to try. Afterward, he nodded to Manager Wang, who then took Mo Liuyun's pickled fish upstairs. Manager Wang then went downstairs and instructed everyone to take a portion over to taste. Just as he was about to take another portion upstairs, Nineteen came running over excitedly, saying, "Manager, I'll take it over for you."

Shopkeeper Wang: I can't eat alone anymore!

Nineteen: Hehe, I can freeload again!

As soon as the innkeeper left, everyone rushed forward, each taking a bite with their chopsticks, and devoured the fish. They even drank almost all the soup, praising it repeatedly. Mo Liuyun also gave his approval to the two chefs, who were beaming with pride. It was easy to receive praise from customers, but to receive recognition for their culinary skills from a fellow chef like the young master was truly a great honor!

Next, Mo Liuyun selected two chefs to make boiled pork together. When the boiled pork slices were ready in 25 minutes, the shopkeeper and Shijiu appeared in the kitchen, each carrying a plate upstairs. Upstairs, Mr. Jiang and Nangong Li were taking turns picking up fish slices with their chopsticks.

Mr. Jiang said, "No wonder An Yi keeps craving it; it really is delicious." Seeing the innkeeper bring out more dishes, he added, "It smells amazing, but it's a pity An Yi won't be able to enjoy it today!"

Manager Wang smiled and said, "Miss Mo tasted the dishes of the four chefs who learned today and said they have reached 70% of the level. We can eat them often in the future. I am really looking forward to the new dishes at the end of the month!"

Nangong Li nodded and said, "I'm also looking forward to it!"

The kitchen staff enjoyed the boiled pork again, and their admiration for Mo Liuyun was beyond words!

Ling'er's announcement rang out: "Congratulations, Master, your Space Faith Points have increased by 50... Space Faith Points have increased..."

Mo Liuyun: "Ling'er, turn off the broadcast first, it's giving me a headache!"

Mo Liuyun never expected such an unexpected gain today, and she was so happy she almost flew away!

So she said to everyone, "It's almost dinner time, so I'll serve you a side dish." She then cracked a few eggs, chopped some vegetables and scallions, and filled about half a pot with the leftover rice from lunch. She heated oil in a pan, first frying the eggs until cooked and setting them aside. Then she added the rice back to the pan and stir-fried it until each grain was separate. She added the eggs, mixed and stir-fried, then added the chopped vegetables, seasoned with salt, and finally added the scallions. The golden eggs, the separate grains of rice, and the green scallions and vegetables made it incredibly appetizing! Mo Liuyun scooped out most of the rice into a large bowl, then divided the rest into five portions and took them upstairs!

Hearing the knock, the innkeeper on the second floor gestured for Nineteen to open the door. Nineteen saw Mo Liuyun and quickly took the tray. Mo Liuyun walked in and said, "Today, I'm serving a complimentary main dish, fried rice with eggs. Please try it, innkeeper. I'll also have lunch here!" Upon hearing this, the innkeeper realized that Mo Liuyun hadn't eaten yet, so he said, "What would you like to eat, young master? It's my treat today. I'm truly sorry for neglecting you!"

Mo Liuyun said, "It's alright, a bowl of fried rice with egg will be enough!"

The innkeeper instructed Shijiu, "Go brew a pot of good tea and bring over two snacks. I'll go upstairs."

The shopkeeper carried two bowls of rice upstairs. When Nangong Li saw the rice, a name popped into his mind: fried rice with egg!

Sure enough, the shopkeeper introduced the dish the next moment: "This is a complimentary main course for the young lady today, called fried rice with egg!"
