The European Emperor’s character remains standing

Chapter 199 Tomato Stewed Frozen Tofu

Now that you have decided to participate, you need to prepare your entries in advance and then collect materials.

After confirming that Ling Xia had joined the team, Lin Shilu kicked out everyone except Zhe Er. They wanted to do something big without telling Hua Hua and the others.

The dark cuisine chef will return to the stage in the middle of a month.

The first step to restore glory is to collect ingredients.

【Fold Ear Cat】: Who is she?

An Zhe'er was on his way to collect food maps, but he saw a pop-up notification on the system that a new teammate had joined, so he asked.

[Seven-Colored Deer]: A-Ling, my new teammate. Join me in collecting ingredients for the pastry map. Have you decided on the food you want to prepare for the competition?

When Zhe Er saw Lu Zai’s reply, he immediately understood and typed.

[Folded Ear Cat]: Honey Pear Balls, I have wanted to make this dish for a long time, and all the ingredients needed for this dish are ready.

[Backpack sharing, ingredients and recipes have been collected.]
(Pineapple, honey, eggs, osmanthus, sugar, starch, flour X99)

I have collected a lot of the above. If the pastries you want to collect overlap, you only need to collect half of them.

[Seven-Colored Deer]: Okay.

[Folded Ear Cat]: If you choose a dish you know how to make, it doesn’t matter if you don’t have the recipe. But if you choose a dish you don’t know how to make, you must have the recipe. This is a mandatory requirement of the system.

I want to play freely, but the system does not allow it, saying that there are too many possibilities for dark dishes to appear. (Maomao is in tears.JPG)

After Lin Shilu responded to the latest news from Zhe Er, he said to Ling Xia, "It seems that we still need to collect the recipes. We should split up and act quickly. See you at the default teleportation point on the pastry map in half an hour."

Ling Xia had no choice but to agree, "I'll collect them quickly and come see you."

There are many ways to obtain ingredients, including drops from monsters, picking and collecting, etc. The same goes for recipes. There are many known recipes and ways to obtain ingredients on the Otherworld Game Forum.

After Lin Shilu collected the methods of obtaining the required ingredients on the forum, he started running madly, trying to collect the desired ingredients and recipes within half an hour.

Quantities are limited, first come first served.

There are many players with collecting addiction and hoarding habit in the game. These players often collect most of the needed food ingredients wherever they go. Some even go so far as to monopolize the food ingredients directly. Zhe Er is the former. When collecting, she will only collect half of the items according to the number, and leave the rest for those who come later. If the quantity is not enough, she will go to a new place to collect the same supplies.

When the upper limit of available materials in a place is reached, the resources will be exhausted. It will take at least half an hour for a random refresh, and the location after the refresh will be unexpected.

There are many trading areas in the game, including guild trading areas where players gather, trading areas formed by the main towns of each map, and online trading established through the game system. Although these trading methods have limited amounts, they generally have a premium, especially when goods are scarce, prices will rise accordingly, so it is not as cost-effective as collecting them by yourself.

Zhe Er thought to himself, "What should I collect next?" He murmured as he strolled around the outskirts of the town map.

After turning on the special mode, ingredients unique to each map will be displayed on all game maps, and will change in real time as the food is collected by the players. Currently, the latest ingredient shown on the game map of her town is tomatoes.

"Cold tomato salad seems too simple. I want to try something more difficult, but the system limits whether it is a recipe I wrote or a collected recipe. It must be qualified and meet the minimum requirements before I can participate."

A light bulb went off in his head. The system only stipulated that the entries had to be qualified and could not be improvised at will. There had to be a recipe, but it did not stipulate that contestants could not develop their own dishes during the competition.

"I'm just eating it myself and I'm not participating in the competition, so I can do whatever I want."

Some time has passed since the start of the game, and few players would choose to collect ingredients like tomatoes, which are common, difficult to limit, and can make dishes stand out. Most of the time, players who see them on the road and have run out of energy and are hungry choose to eat them raw to fill their stomachs.

Looking at the more than ten tomatoes growing vigorously nearby, Zhe Er's collecting habit came back again. She collected half of them and left the other half to continue growing. She also planted the collected food seeds nearby and buried a teleportation stone. After a while, when the seeds grew up, she could come here through the teleportation stone to continue collecting.

Compared to the ruthless act of digging them all up, the Folded Ears prefer to collect them in a cyclical manner, harvesting half and planting the other half, and continuing to collect next time.

The game is more flexible, but when players face these immature plants, they only have two options: watering and maintenance. Through these two tasks, players who participate in planting can receive rewards from the system.

Unless the plants are fully grown, players cannot touch these plants growing in protection mode.

This was not a cooking area, and he couldn't take out the cooking utensils in his backpack, so Zhe Er had to go to the outdoor barbecue area allowed by the system to cook.

When it comes to cooking, of course you just use whatever you have and cook as you please. Of course, the ingredients for the competition cannot be touched. After picking out the ingredients for the competition, Zhe Er locked his eyes on the food that had dropped from the monsters he had killed not long ago.

Frozen tofu needs to be processed before it can be eaten.

She was full of confidence and lit the pot and fire. However, she was not skilled enough so she could only make do. According to the instructions in the manual, she followed them step by step. Unfortunately, the wood she collected was too wet and produced a lot of black smoke when it burned, which made her face black.

But it doesn't matter, she smiled calmly, revealing her big white teeth.

Delicious food is just ahead!

The terrain here is flat and close to the water. There are many related props in the bag that can be used. Then take out the plant flower prop that can dispel negative states to disperse the thick black smoke. Then take out the kitchen knife, cutting board, kitchen utensils and various seasonings and put them aside for use.

Wash your hands and clean them, take out the chopping board to cut the tomatoes, wait for the water in the hot pot to dry up, add the collected extracted vegetable oil and a little salt, and wait for white smoke to come out.

Seeing that it was almost done, he raised his folded ear handle high, aimed the bowl in his hand at the pot and placed it accurately, then left in an instant to wait for the oil drops to calm down.

From experience, we can see that the oil temperature is too high and tomatoes contain a lot of water, so oil will definitely splash. The physical sensation in the holographic mode is beyond imagination. Even if the maximum physical sensation is limited to 80%, it is really painful.

Zhe Er also thought about maintaining the body sensation at the lowest 20%, but this would affect the feel of cooking, so he had to give up.

The sizzling sound gradually became smaller. Zhe Er tiptoed closer and wanted to stir-fry the tomatoes, but then he remembered that he had not taken out the spatula. He took it out in a hurry. At this moment, the tomatoes in the pot were slightly mushy.

Stir the tomatoes manually, then add the frozen tofu that has been cut into small square pieces, and stir-fry again.

While frying the food, Zhe Er sighed, "As expected of me, look at my smooth movements and effortless posture, I am definitely a famous chef in the world."

In less than 3 seconds, I could smell the burnt smell getting stronger.

Zhe'er quickly picked up the gourd ladle beside him and scooped water into the pot. Half a ladle of water made tomato and tofu soup.

"It's not a big problem, it's not a big problem." She comforted herself and continued to cook on high heat until the sauce thickened.

However, the firewood was not strong enough, so she quickly went to the nearby to collect some dry firewood and put it into the fire. The poor flower that she placed by the water to absorb the black smoke, after the fire grew, risked being dried up, absorbing the wood ash floating in the air. After a series of operations, the white flower turned black, and it changed from a prop that could be used many times to a disposable one.

"This flower is really my best helper. Next time I will plant more of it in the guild's backyard. However, the flowering period is very long. If all else fails, I will try to fight more dungeons that drop this flower. With this flower, I feel my cooking skills can soar even higher."

Zhe Er was mysteriously confident. The fire was already high and the juice in the pot was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. She said, "It's time to serve."

While waiting, he was not idle. He built a small stove by hand. The dish was about to be served, and he took out the baking gloves. This pot is very suitable for cooking, but its thermal conductivity is also very good, so it must be insulated with baking gloves.

After the pot was placed on the built stove, he scooped up water from the stream to put out the fire.

After making sure all the flames were extinguished, he took out the Big Mouth Flower from his backpack and ate the waste wood, black ashes and obsolete plant and flower props. After dealing with the kitchen waste, he started eating.

Take out the soft biscuit from the backpack, tear open the seam in the middle of the biscuit, and the homemade sandwich biscuit is ready.

The Scottish Fold was sitting on a soft stool woven from plants enjoying the food, while the pet Big Mouth Flower next to it was also digesting the "kitchen leftovers" fed by its owner.

If the big-mouthed flower could talk, it would definitely say: Although I say I eat everything in my self-introduction, I also want to eat delicious food, not soot from the bottom of the pot.

Folding Ears didn't feel the burning gaze from Big Mouth Flower at all, and commented on the dish by himself: "It's slightly burnt, and the seasoning is too salty. I will definitely make it better next time."

However, they didn't know that a new negative status had quietly appeared on the panel.

The [Hunger] state replaces the [Psychedelic] state. Players in this state will experience hallucinations, and the negative state will disappear after 10 minutes.

The psychedelic state came from the fact that the mushrooms in this pot were not cooked last time. Zhe Er didn't care much about eating the uncooked mushrooms at that time, but her vision was a little colorful and inhuman. If you have to say a disadvantage, it is that it greatly affects the battle. At that time, the boss of the dungeon was laughed at by her weird operation after eating the mushrooms. It was not a taunt, but the effect was comparable to a taunt, so she was killed by Huahua and others in a sneak attack.

This pot of stewed chicken with mushrooms had a psychedelic effect. After scrubbing the pot, the psychedelic effect was greatly reduced, but the pot was not scrubbed clean, so there was still some residual effect. However, Zhe Er enjoyed eating it very much.

After eating, I washed the dishes and put them in the backpack. It was located in a safe area in the suburbs, with birds singing in my ears and beautiful scenery. I was in a good mood.

Before starting to prepare the meal, Zhe Er turned on the recording mode and recorded the entire process of preparation and eating.

She and Luza have always had a habit of recording before cooking in the game. If there is no failure, it is the evidence of no failure. By the way, this video can be used to prove their right to enter the kitchen. However, after the incident of stewing chicken with mushrooms, no one believed them anymore, so the two had to find another way, and that was the beginning of the God of Cooking Competition.

After observing himself for 5 minutes, he found nothing abnormal, so he sent the video to the deer cub for verification.

[Fold Ear Cat]: You see, the kitchen killer also has his spring. No negative conditions such as food poisoning were found, which proves that our plan is feasible.

At that time, Lu Cub had just collected the relevant formulas and rushed to the agreed location. When she saw the message, she found that she had met Ling Xia. She was shocked by Zhe Er's message.

[Fold of Scottish Folds]: I have used the system to record the entire process of this creation and named it Tomatoes Stewed with Frozen Tofu.

Believe me, our spring has arrived.

Apart from a slightly burnt smell, I believe I can do better next time. I also tasted an exceptionally delicious meat flavor, which is enough to show that my cooking skills have reached a superb level.

After this experience, An Zhe'er's confidence increased greatly. With mysterious self-confidence, he immediately set his sights on the hellish-level Dengying Beef.

If stewed tomatoes with frozen tofu is the simplest and most error-tolerant dish for beginners, then beef with lantern shadow is the hell of hells. Like the three-no-stick dish, it tests the chef's skills and strength.

Teleportation Stone, a new item released during the event, can be exchanged at will. The buried Teleportation Stone is valid for only one week, and can only be used by the person who buried the stone. During the existence of the item, the system can be used to teleport to the nearby area.
