Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 352 Dark Cuisine
After a while, Xiaolei brought a table of meals that she had prepared and placed them in front of Kong Zhe.

"Let me tell you in advance, this is my first time making it, so it may not be as delicious as my sister's..."

Before eating, Xiaolei gave Kong Zhe a vaccination.

"It's okay, it smells pretty good, no matter how bad the smell can be..."

Kong Zhe comforted her with a smile, he is not picky about food, even if Xiaolei's cooking is mediocre, he will say it is delicious.

That's what he thought, but when he really saw the food in front of him, his eyelids twitched unconsciously, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition.

"Really?"

After hearing Kong Zhe's words, Xiaolei was very happy, and she also breathed a sigh of relief.Just looking at the food on the table, she tilted her head in doubt: "However, the strange thing is that I followed my sister's steps to make it, but why did the things I made become burnt black? Could it be bad food..."

As Xiaolei talked, she became worried again. She felt a little regretful at this time, and she knew that she should have a taste in advance.

"It's okay, so what if it's darker? It doesn't mean anything. The dishes don't emphasize the color, and the taste is the most important thing. Instead, I prefer to eat black beans, seaweed and other black foods..."

Kong Zhe hurriedly comforted Xiaolei, then picked up his chopsticks, searched among the dishes on the table, and finally stopped his gaze on one of the dishes.

"Then, let me try this first... Squid ink noodles."

"That... that is fried noodles with soy sauce..."

"Hey?"

Kong Zhe froze for a moment, fried in soy sauce... no way...

But before he could speak, he met Xiaolei's pitiful eyes as soon as he looked up, and immediately changed his words: "Oh, it's fried noodles with soy sauce. It's because my eyes are not very good. Then I want to try this Fried noodles with soy sauce..."

Kong Zhe smiled, put the chopsticks into the noodles, and prepared to taste the saltiness with chopsticks first no matter what.only……

Looking at the whole piece of noodles on the chopsticks, the corners of Kong Zhe's eyes twitched, and the uneasiness in his heart rapidly expanded.

Oops, Oops, I wanted to pick up a little chopsticks, but I didn’t expect to copy them all at once...

"Ah, that's too bad, maybe it's been left for too long, it's almost forming!"

Xiaolei covered her mouth and screamed, then said weakly: "Yes, why don't you eat this and change to another..."

"It's okay! I like to eat fast food like this...hehe..."

Kong Zhe tried his best to maintain a smile, but he could feel his voice trembling.

He raised his chopsticks and slowly put the black dough into his mouth.

"Crack!"

With the crisp cracking sound, before Kong Zhe could figure out why eating fried noodles would make such a sound only made by crispy noodles, a bitter taste had already spread in his mouth.

Xiaolei, how much soy sauce did you put in...

"No, are you okay, Brother Kong Zhe, is it not delicious? Why are you frozen?"

Seeing Kong Zhe's performance, Xiaolei couldn't help but become more worried.

"Ah, froze? No!"

Kong Zhe said with a strong smile: "It's delicious, really, it's delicious..."

"Oh……"

After Xiaolei finished speaking, she stared blankly at Kong Zhe again.

Kong Zhe was also stunned for a moment, almost crying in his heart, and wanted to put down the next piece, but under Xiaolei's longing gaze, he could only continue, eating this horrible piece of noodle one bite at a time.

"Hey?"

Xiaolei stretched out her hand, instinctively wanting to stop it, but before she could speak, Kong Zhe had already finished eating in two bites.

"It's delicious, except for a bit of carbon smell, it's really delicious...hehe."

"Oh...really...it doesn't matter, why do I feel completely burnt."

"No, it's more delicious when it's burnt!"

"Really?"

With Kong Zhe's reassurances, Xiaolei was finally relieved and happy.

"Then let's try this dish again, the Sixi meatballs I made, I am very confident in this one!"

"Okay, let's try it!"

Kong Zhe picked up a piece of meatball, which looks normal, so there should be no problem...it should be.I just ate a ball to wash away the carbon taste in my mouth.

With an uneasy heart, Kong Zhe swallowed a mouthful of dumpling.

"...the layer on top is my favorite chocolate sauce!"

Just as Kong Zhe was biting off the meatball, he heard Xiaolei say this.Suddenly, his movements froze again.

Why do Sixi meatballs put chocolate?Is this a new type of dark cuisine?And... are you sure it's just a layer of chocolate?Why do I feel like the whole ball is made of chocolate?
"Ah? This expression... Doesn't it taste good?"

Xiaolei suddenly puffed up her mouth, not expecting that Ao would be questioned about her favorite work, so she picked up the chopsticks and wanted to taste it.

"No...no, it's delicious, I'm speechless...haha..."

Kong Zhe hastily stopped her movement, and at the same time pulled the plate of chocolates, yes, that's right, chocolates, to him.

"Xiao Lei, can I finish this plate?"

"really?"

Seeing Kong Zhe's performance, Xiaolei smiled again and nodded hurriedly: "Yes!"

"Ah, that would be great...haha...ha..."

With a dry smile, Kong Zhe swallowed all the chocolate balls one by one.

"call!"

After eating, Kong Zhe let out a long sigh of relief, and finally finished eating.Looking at Xiaolei again, Kong Zhe patted her head and said with a smile, "Well done, I like it very much!"

"Great!"

Hearing Kong Zhe's praise, Xiaolei was very happy.Then he pushed another dish to Kong Zhe.

"Then try this rice ball!"

"Huh? I haven't recovered yet... Oh, it's nothing."

Seeing Xiaolei's puzzled expression, Kong Zhe immediately changed his words: "Dough, right? Let me taste it."

Kong Zhe swallowed, and picked up a rice ball made of rice with some trepidation.

He first looked carefully at the exterior for a few times. Fortunately, it looked normal from the outside, at least there was no chocolate sauce or anything like that.But grains of snow-white rice.

"I've been making this rice ball for a long time. It's a pity that there are only a few ingredients for rice balls, and there is no room for me to develop them."

"Oh? That's a good thing... Oh, no, rice balls are like this, don't worry..."

Kong Zhe heaved a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't have room to play, it seems that this should be regarded as the only normal food.Also, what tricks can this thing do?
"I made this step by step according to my sister's notes. I put fine salt on it, and stuffed prunes, dried fish, etc..."

Kong Zhe put the rice ball to his mouth and nodded slightly. Fortunately, the bread inside was also normal.

"Also, also, my sister mentioned the super secret of making onigiri in her notes, that is - sodium bicarbonate makes the deliciousness bloom..."

Sodium bicarbonate?What the hell?Baking soda...

While thinking in his heart, Kong Zhe put the rice ball into his mouth.

"...So, so, for better taste, I added a whole bag!"

"Alas!"

Kong Zhe's forehead froze again.A whole bag, whose baking soda is packed in bags...

Is it true that such a thing will not kill you if you eat it...

Don't mention how it feels in his mouth now, Kong Zhe is a little worried about his life.However, with the recovery ability of the blood race as a base, it shouldn't be a big deal...it should be...

No matter how reluctant Kong Zhe was, before Xiaolei's gaze, he still smiled and ate up all the dough.

After a while, looking at the empty table, Kong Zhe heaved a long sigh of relief, and gave Xiaolei a thumbs up.

It's not that he doesn't want to talk, it's just that he's afraid that if he talks, the stuff that was forcefully stuffed into his stomach just now will be spit out.

"Does it mean that my cooking is delicious..."

Xiaolei tilted her head and immediately became happy.His eyes narrowed into crescent moons.

Seeing Xiaolei's smile, Kong Zhe also heaved a sigh of relief, even for this smile, it's all worth it.

"Great, I didn't have much confidence at first, but with the affirmation of Brother Kong Zhe, I feel more at ease, so I can take care of Brother Kong Zhe in the future!"

Xiaolei smiled, and suddenly pulled a huge plate from the side: "Brother Kong Zhe, actually, I also made a super large amount of dessert, and this is my original creation, and I didn't copy my sister's at all." Creativity, yes, no! Hum."

Xiaolei patted her chest confidently, then pushed the dessert in front of Kong Zhe.

"Varied……"

The original smile on Kong Zhe's face froze completely.Still have?
In his heart, Kong Zhe was about to cry.Oh my god, it's already the limit after eating the ones just now, and with such a large plate of desserts, maybe he really wants to die of stomach cramps.

"Well, Xiaolei, I think I have almost eaten today, otherwise, I'd better save this dessert for tomorrow..."

Kong Zhe tried to speak in a negotiating tone.

"Huh? If you hate it, you'll tease me. The dessert will go bad tomorrow."

"Ah...but I'm really full!"

Kong Zhe rubbed his stomach and made a look of being full.

"Oh……"

Seeing that Kong Zhe really couldn't take it anymore, Xiaolei could only nod her head, but then she got a headache again.

"I can't eat such a big dish by myself..."

While talking, the two looked at the other person at the dinner table——Lan.

Since entering the door just now, Lan has been sitting in the seat without saying a word except for nodding to Xiaolei, and she has not made any expression on the communication between Kong Zhe and Xiaolei.

Until now, when both of them looked at her, she moved her body, stretched out her hand and dragged the plate of dessert on the table to her, then took a pair of chopsticks from the side and ate it by herself.
