Mecha Era for Kitchen

"My house is on the fifth main road." Song Yiming, who was sitting next to Chen Zikai, said only this in about 5 minutes' drive.

During these two days, Chen Zikai received a lot of information in his mind no matter whether he was active or passive.Although he no longer felt at a loss because of sitting on the maglev vehicle, he was still slightly surprised by Song Yiming's identity and background.

From the first meeting in the government square where he just fell into this strange place, to when Aunt Mary said, "How can I get along with the boys from the Song family", Chen Zikai always felt that Song Yiming should be more than just an ordinary second lieutenant.But Chen Zikai didn't have a specific idea about how Song Yiming was not a common law.

Until he suddenly discovered that the adjutant driving Song Yiming was actually wearing the same light gray and off-white military uniform and the same military rank as David under Servis's—

Isn't David a major? !

Isn't Song Yiming a second lieutenant? !

The major should be several grades older than the second lieutenant, right? !

What kind of situation is this? ?Are the military ranks here counted in reverse? ?

Chen Zikai glanced at Song Yiming without leaving any traces. Second Lieutenant Song in casual clothes was leaning on the sofa in the car, showing no signs of a soldier.He still remembered that when he rushed out the door with Aunt Mary's displeased expression on his face, he was thrown a sentence of "Come back early, don't get too close to him". Now it seems that Sevis and Song Yiming may not have a good relationship Maybe friendly?

Thinking of this, Chen Zikai trembled in his heart——

When Major General Sevis came back, Aunt Mary shook off her going to Song Yiming's house to cook. She would not have her identity card confiscated and kicked out of Sky Blue Star to wander around...

The fast and stable maglev car makes people have no sense of time, and the street layout here is very strange. When the car stopped in front of a small western-style building that was very similar to Seves's house, Chen Zikai thought they had just turned around and came back. .

He took a closer look, only to find that this small white western-style building was slightly larger than that of Sevez's house.

The place where the second lieutenant lives is bigger than the major general?With this question in mind, Chen Zikai found the answer as soon as he followed Song Yiming into the fully automatic blue door.

...that's not Rhine.Rick?

Why is he here...?

Rhine looked like he had just taken a shower, with a light blue bath towel on the back of his neck, and his golden hair was wetly attached to his head.He was actually more surprised than Chen Zikai that the other party would appear here, but his facial expression was only a single raised eyebrow: "Yiming, why is he here?"

"You didn't see that I brought it."

"What are you doing?"

"Cook!" Song Yiming looked smug, as if he was not Chen Zikai but himself who knew how to cook, "He survived under the hands of Seves, you are blessed by Rhine."

Rhine raised his arm and wiped his hair with a towel, then continued to raise his eyebrows: "Really, not bad."

Chen Zikai didn't know whether Rhine's 'not bad' meant that someone cooked well, or that he hadn't been dealt with by Seves. He opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.

"Rhein lives with me, Zikai, you don't need to talk to him."

living together? !

"Come with me, the ingredients and everything are ready for you." Song Yiming rolled his eyes at Rhine, and before Chen Zikai could say anything, he took his arm and walked towards the kitchen, "Although my place must be It’s not as rich as S[-]’s resources, and I’m guessing it’s not as good as Seves’ dead face... Well, but we also have what we should have.”

Chen Zikai nodded in agreement——

The kitchen layout of Song Yiming’s house is almost the same as that of Seves’s house. There are several white square tables, wall-mounted cabinets filled with spices, and storage cabinets for several pots and knives... There are more than a dozen dishes on the table. A round potato, a bag of meat of unknown type, two carrots... there is even a white radish and a pepper! !

Chen Zikai really doesn't understand this place more and more now, they have all the common ingredients, why do they still use nutrients as their daily energy source?And looking at Sevis's appearance, he obviously doesn't like those greasy liquids, but it's really incomprehensible to come up with such a thing as "cooks are as noble as soldiers".

As soon as I saw these raw materials, I quickly thought about feasible methods in my mind.

……Potato.

Obviously, the most common thing here is potatoes, and making full use of them is easier said than done.What's more, after Chen Zikai has been busy for a long time, he no longer has the mind to cook those exquisite dishes - fast and delicious are his main goals now!

Seeing Zikai's pursed lips and raised eyebrows when he was thinking about the problem, Song Yiming thought that he was embarrassed about how to use these ingredients, and immediately said: "Surely these things can't be made together? Just separate them."

Can't do it together?

Chen Zikai gave Song Yiming a weird look, then turned his gaze back to the desk.

Cooking is to process all the ingredients together and integrate them into delicious dishes!

Every time Chen Zikai entered the kitchen, his aura would change drastically. His usual casual look had disappeared without a trace, and only Chef Chen was left standing majestically in the kitchen—what?Just to make a potluck?Then you have to have the temperament of a cook!

He turned on the automatic water control table, rinsed his hands under the running water, and took the ingredients on the counter table to start working.

Song Yiming's question didn't get a response, and he groped his nose and exited the kitchen tactfully—all the chefs he had met hated being poked by irrelevant people while cooking, although they didn't know much about Chen Zikai's He was used to it, but out of inertia, he still chose to walk back to the living room.

Rhine was still wearing a bathrobe, and her blond hair was a little dry. The half-fluffed hair and the expressionless face on it made Song Yiming feel awkward.

"Hey, let me tell you, why don't you change your clothes when you have guests at home?"

"Guest?" Rhine raised his eyes from the light screen repeater, and after a while, he slowly turned and went upstairs, "Oh."

Chen Zikai in the kitchen was currently immersed in cooking, an activity that he enjoyed very much. His hands moved quickly, eager to prepare this meal that should be regarded as lunch according to the time, and used it to comfort him. My own growling stomach.

When he just walked to the counter, he noticed with sharp eyes that the crimson meat turned out to be beef—and it was a very beautiful type, sirloin.This kind of beef belly and the soft muscles near the ribs, with tendons, meat, and oily pieces, are one of the favorite parts of Chen Zikai, who is a good meat eater.The beef brisket in front of me looks like a strip of boneless meat taken from the ribs of beef. It has more lean meat and less tendon, and is most suitable for soup or stew.He collided with potatoes in his mind, and with a side of carrots, he made a potato sirloin stew.

Chen Zikai took the beef brisket out of the delicately packaged transparent bag, soaked it in a bowl of clear water, then picked the worst-looking potato and washed it with the two carrots, then peeled it with a knife—those long He has other uses for the round potatoes.

Opening the long wall-mounted cabinet full of spices, Chen Zikai wanted to find something that could replace onions, ginger and garlic, but he found a bottle of ginger flakes and a box of green strips in the corner of the cabinet. shaped object.

With some doubts, he picked it up and inspected it, then took out the smallest piece and put it in his mouth to taste—poof!Really, what are you talking about, even dried scallions and ginger slices? !

This is the so-called lack of food resources?

This is a place where the second lieutenant of the army doesn't even know Hawthorn?

There are almost a lot of things that should be there, okay? !He even saw dried chilies and white vinegar! ! !Why is there pepper and cinnamon in that jar over there? !

Chen Zikai felt that all the things he had speculated in his head two days ago should be denied. Can there be onions, ginger and garlic, and can make sugar, salt and oil--now it seems that even if this place is occupied by nutritional supplements, Unlikely because of any resource issues.

So why... In this place where technology is so advanced that it is very difficult for him to adapt, the chef looks like a treasure, and no one in the family of a major general in the army can cook?

Isn't this an essential survival skill for human beings...

Chen Zikai frowned and couldn't think of a reason, so he simply let go of this thought and concentrated on cooking.He took half of the peeled potatoes and cut them into small pieces together with the carrots, and the ready-made dried shallots and ginger slices in the jar saved him a process.

The remaining half of the potatoes were cut into thin shreds by Chen Zikai. It has to be said that the technology here is advanced, and even the kitchen knives are very unique. The white handle and sharp blade make Chen Zikai feel at ease with the blade. I became happy in the sound of 'tat-tat-tat' when the platform collided.

The potato shreds were soaked in cold water by Chen Zikai, and the potato cubes and carrots were put into a clean plate for later use. The chubby potatoes that Chen Zikai left on purpose finally faced a difficult task at this time—they were first in the three-point The second place was cut open, and then a narrower knife hollowed out all of them less than one centimeter from the epidermis, making them into small cup shapes.

Even when Chen Zikai was in a hurry to eat, he still couldn't change his obsessive-compulsive disorder of making delicate things.

Fortunately, he roughly estimated the time. Taking this very useful temperature control platform on Sky Blue, it would take no more than 10 to [-] minutes to complete all these things—it was still within the acceptable range of his stomach.

Chen Zikai put the hollowed out potato cup together with the prepared ingredients in a corner of the huge counter, rinsed the beef brisket soaked in cold water, blanched the blood foam, found a soup pot and filled it with an appropriate amount of water .After the water is boiled, add the blanched beef brisket, sliced ​​ginger and soy sauce in turn.

After putting these things away, Chen Zikai realized that he was still missing something.

Cooking wine?No cooking wine in the condiment cabinet?

He thought the spice cabinet was the pocket of the almighty Doraemon...

"That... Song... Yiming, do you have cooking wine at home?" Chen Zikai poked his head out from the kitchen, and saw Song Yiming sitting on the sofa in a twisted posture.

Song Yiming was staring at the light screen from time to time, when Chen Zikai suddenly asked him, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked back: "What is Lijiu? Is it a kind of wine? Do you want to drink?"

"It's a seasoning..."

"Seasoning? What's the serial number? You can look for it in the cupboard. If you don't have it, I can't help it."

"No way..." Chen Zikai's face immediately collapsed. If there is no cooking wine, the beef brisket and potatoes will taste worse.He thought for a while, and then asked, "You just said you have wine?"

"Oh, yes."

"Well, can you show me? What does it look like?"

Song Yiming stood up directly from the sofa, walked to a cabinet in the dining room, and opened the door before turning around and asking, "What do you want? This? Or this?"

Chen Zikai glanced at his pot of bubbling and steaming beef brisket, quickly rushed out of the kitchen, and swept up and down the cabinet—it was it!

After saying "Thank you! My beef brisket is about to be cooked!" Chen Zikai jumped back to the kitchen and made a drop of sweat drip from Song Yiming's forehead who was still standing in front of the cabinet without realizing it.

Holding a glass bottle twenty centimeters high in his hand, Chen Zikai was in a good mood. He unscrewed the bottle cap and started pouring it into the pot.At the end, he didn’t forget to sigh with one of the few singing voices in his mind—the equipment here is so complete, even rice wine and aniseed ingredients, but he lives on nutrient supplements every day, what is the reason for it!
