Anime cuisine: Starting with glowing dishes

Because the space on the low table at home is limited and there are quite a lot of people, we don’t have separate meals at noon and instead provide several pairs of serving chopsticks.

But even so, it is not possible to put all the dishes on the table.

Lu Ping'an prepared a total of eight dishes for lunch today - Deshun Sashimi Combo (Ise lobster and sea bream), salt-grilled sea bream, stir-fried prawns, spicy swimming crab, fish head and bone tofu soup, steamed abalone with vermicelli in garlic sauce, steamed Ise lobster with vermicelli in garlic sauce, and steamed clams with eggs.

Next, the dishes will be served while you eat.

Lu Ping'an wiped the cleaned wok dry and hung it aside, as he would heat the oil later. He placed the steamer on the stove, added an appropriate amount of water, and lit the fire to heat.

Once the water in the steamer boils, you can steam the last three dishes.

Medusa took the rice from the little evil god and helped to bring it to the low table outside.

Seeing that everyone was helping, Minos suddenly felt that it was not appropriate for her to just stand there and watch. Just then, the oven made a "ding" sound. She looked over and walked into the kitchen.

"The oven mitts are on the left side of the oven."

Noticing Minos's actions, Lu Ping'an looked at her and reminded her.

"Oh." Minos responded, and sure enough, she found the oven gloves on the left side of the oven, but she didn't need them.

Although she looks delicate and her skin is so tender that it seems like water can be squeezed out of it, she is very defensive and is not afraid of burns at all.

"..."

Soon, a group of people sat around a low table.

Lily Ling helped Lu Pingan pour wine——

It is not actually very suitable to drink alcohol when eating seafood, but it is actually okay to drink a small amount of low-alcohol wine.

This time we drank sake, which Yuriling had bought earlier.

After everyone's glasses were full, Lu Pingan raised his glass and said:

"Well then... let's have a drink first!"

"cheers--!"

There still has to be a ceremony. It's a rare seafood feast, and there are still... Although there aren't many people, there are also quite a few demons, so there's not enough space for one table.

Lu Ping'an originally wanted to sit with Lily Ling, but Medusa had already sat next to the little evil god, so he had to give up the idea.

Slightly tilting his head back, Lu Pingan took a sip of the simple, refreshing sake with a hint of honeydew melon aroma, and then he heard Minos's clear voice say:

"I'm gonna start now!"

However, the one who moved faster than her was the little evil god.

She looked extremely hungry. She took away a large ball of sashimi, put it in the dipping sauce bowl in front of her, rinsed it, and then picked up a few slices and put them in her mouth.

“Oh~~~!”

“Delicious~~~!”

The little evil god was purified by the mysterious power of the food. His delicate body trembled slightly. He raised his chin slightly, held his cheek with one hand, and revealed an expression of satisfaction and enjoyment.

At this time, Minos had also finished shabu-shabuing the sashimi, and put it into his mouth while exclaiming "It's so thin".

"what……?"

There was a brief blank in my mind, and when I reacted, the sashimi had disappeared from my mouth, replaced by a delicious taste like a surging wave!

Minos' ruby-like eyes widened uncontrollably!

"..."

The sunlight penetrates the water, casting swaying spots of light, reflecting the magnificence and mystery of the underwater world.

On the rocky seabed, rocks of strange shapes are scattered in an orderly manner. Some are as steep as if cut by a knife or an axe, while others are round and smooth, as if polished by time.

In the cracks of the rocks, tender green seaweed dances lightly with the waves.

A lobster with a hard shell, dark red in color, and long tentacles swayed gently in the water, as if detecting the movements around it. The lobster waving its claws met Minos's sight.

Minos was bewildered.

The next moment, consciousness returned to reality!

"……I!"

Unbelievable emotions filled his heart. Minos turned his head and looked at Lu Pingan in disbelief.

"I think I went to the bottom of the sea and saw a crayfish!"

The Ise lobster is not small, but there are bigger ones in the demon world, so in her eyes it is just a crayfish.

"That's normal. Eating my food often makes you feel weird... No, it's an incredible experience!"

Lu Pingan picked up a piece of salt-baked snapper for himself and changed his words seriously.

"Si Guoyi!"

Minos exclaimed, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

It is incredible to have such a magical experience while eating

This is the first time she has experienced this in her life, and it feels super cool!

The key is--

“It’s so delicious!”

Minos put the remaining sashimi in the dipping sauce bowl into her mouth. This time, she deliberately slowed down the pace and savored it carefully.

I just felt that the sashimi in my mouth tasted fresh, sweet and refreshing. Because there was ice under the plate, there was a slight cool feeling when I put it in my mouth.

Chew gently——

The elasticity and toughness of the sashimi are perfectly displayed between the teeth, without losing its chewiness or appearing rough.

The meat is incredibly tender, almost giving the illusion of melting in your mouth, as if every fiber melts gently in your mouth, leaving a mouthful of sweetness.

The richness of the dipping sauce complements the freshness of the sashimi, and the complex layers of flavor intertwine in the mouth, bringing a feast for the taste buds!

"Wow--!"

Minos marveled again.

Then he looked at the other dishes with shining eyes.

"Sashimi is so delicious, what about the others?"

She excitedly picked up the serving chopsticks...

Lu Ping'an savored the salt-grilled sea bream carefully.

Red sea bream has white, tender, and delicious meat with no fishy smell. This ingredient does not require excessive seasoning; just a smear of sea salt can grill it to a very good taste.

The sea bream he grilled had a golden and slightly charred skin. The moment you took a bite, the crispy skin and the tender inside formed a wonderful contrast.

The salty taste of the sea salt penetrates into the fish meat just right, blending perfectly with the sweetness of the sea bream itself, as if the essence of the sea is concentrated in this one bite!

It was better than I imagined. Lu Pingan nodded with satisfaction.

How do you say that?

He thought about it and said:

"High-end ingredients often require only the simplest cooking methods. Food itself has a rich, fresh aroma, and simple methods can better bring out its original flavor."

"Hmm...you really have a way with what you say."

Minos happily showed off the fried prawns. She even chewed the prawn heads. She gave Lu Pingan a thumbs up and said energetically:

"But I recognize your cooking skills. I am willing to call you the best!"

This shrimp is super delicious too!

It really amazed her life!

"If only I could eat this all the time..."

For the first time, Minos seriously considered staying in the human world to protect Lu Ping'an...

"This one……"

Medusa excitedly pointed at the freshly brewed soup in the bowl:

“This fish head, fish bone and tofu soup is also super delicious!”

“It has a soothing smell!”

Her favorability towards Lu Ping'an was increasing rapidly. The food he cooked was so delicious!

Moreover, he will not be petrified, has a good personality, and is kind to others.

Medusa suddenly felt that Lu Pingan was very attractive!

"call……"

"So fragrant and spicy! And a little numb... but also very fresh!"

Lily Ling was so spicy that she gasped and stuck out her pink tongue, but she couldn't stop eating because it was so delicious!

Lu Ping'an felt that Lily Ling was very cute now, Medusa was also very cute, Minos was great, and the little evil god...

Although I ate it in a hurry, it was still good.

He smiled, figuring the water was almost boiling, and stood up, saying, "You guys eat first. I'll go steam the remaining three dishes."

"Anything else?"

Minos' mouth was full of oil. He turned around in surprise, with a hint of joy on his face.

"Of course, I'm preparing a seafood feast for lunch today. A seafood feast naturally won't be limited to just this little bit on the table."

Lu Ping'an said, turning and walking towards the kitchen.

……

……

Chapter 51 Medusa and Mr. Mermaid!

“Sizzle, sizzle—!”

Two spoonfuls of boiling hot oil were poured in, instantly creating a sizzling sound, as if awakening the soul of the dish.

The golden minced garlic bursts with a strong and rich aroma under the stimulation of hot oil, wrapped in a faint scent of green onion, intertwined with the freshness of abalone and the sweetness of lobster, forming an irresistible storm of freshness and fragrance.

The high temperature of the hot oil completely releases the aroma of the ingredients, filling the air and making people salivate with anticipation.

"This fragrance... is absolutely amazing! I can't stand it!"

Lu Ping'an was so greedy that he quickly picked up the tray and walked outside.

The delicious aroma emanating from the kitchen was like an invisible ribbon, gently wrapping around the noses of Lily Ling and the others, further whetting their already voracious appetites.

The moment Lu Ping'an came out with the tray, everyone looked over, their big wet eyes flashing with excitement and anticipation, like a group of hungry little animals.

"smell good!"

“Mmmmm! Such a tempting…smell!”

Lu Pingan couldn't help but smile at their reactions. He glanced at the low table and said, "Pull the empty plates away. There's still some sashimi left. Share it among you."

"Hi!"

Minos quickly removed the empty plate that originally contained the salt-grilled sea bream, and did not forget to reach out his chopsticks for the sashimi.

The little evil god swept away most of the food with chopsticks. He was a master at both courting death and eating.

Medusa took a few pieces.

Lily Ling had eaten a lot in the kitchen before, and now she wanted to eat something else, so she used the serving chopsticks to pick up a few slices for Lu Ping'an and put them in his bowl.

Lu Pingan also began to present additional dishes——

"Steamed abalone with vermicelli in garlic sauce, steamed Ise lobster with vermicelli in garlic sauce."

Everyone started eating again.

Lily Ling picked up an abalone and put it into her mouth impatiently after it cooled down a little, and her expression looked as if it was about to melt.

“Mmmmm! It’s so delicious!”
