Soon, Xiangling came to Arthur's table with the freshly baked slime shrimp balls. She did not leave, but pulled out the chair opposite and sat opposite Arthur, looking at Arthur, as if she wanted to get an evaluation immediately after Arthur finished eating.

Although he was not particularly hungry, he took a bite of the freshly-baked shrimp balls in response to everyone's gaze.

The skin of the shrimp ball is very crispy. When you bite it, the skin breaks apart, and then the slime in the middle flows into your mouth like a cold stream, and then touches the shrimp ball in the middle.

After taking a bite, Arthur pondered for a moment and was reluctant to take the second bite. Indeed, the overall taste was no different from Xiangling's description, but between the crispy skin and the tender shrimp meat of the originally crispy shrimp ball, a stream of incompatible slime suddenly appeared and invaded his mouth.

If it is a food anime, then there will be an illusion of a summer vacation, on the beach in the summer afternoon, you can enjoy all kinds of fresh seafood. But when the slime gel appears, it is like a giant slime suddenly appears on the beach, wrapping people up and making them unable to move.

Overall it's just weird.

Facing Xiangling in front of him, Arthur directly expressed his views.

"It's exactly as you said, but in fact, the crispy skin and shrimp balls taste perfect, but the addition of slime gel is a bit out of tune, destroying the overall balance, just like dry wood encountering a raging fire, it should have burned more and more fiercely, but at this moment a touch of cold water was added."

“It’s a good idea, but next time, remember to consider whether the ingredients can enhance the taste of the food instead of forcing other ingredients into it.”

When Xiangling heard Arthur's comments, her eyes lit up, but then were extinguished by the cold water behind her. However, after listening to Arthur's advice, her eyes lit up again.

"Guest, can you also cook?"

Xiangling has always been committed to developing her cooking skills. Although she has met many different chefs, she discovered that the recipes were all the same and had no novelty at all. It was from then on that Xiangling became obsessed with using slime to make dark dishes.

Unexpectedly, some people not only commented on the taste and feeling, but also gave suggestions. In the eyes of others, Xiangling was just daydreaming. Many people also advised Xiangling not to be obsessed with slime. This was the first time someone gave her advice instead of denying her.

"Yes, a little."

"Then can you help me develop a dish made with slime gel?"

Chapter 5 Slime Milk Pudding (5/)

Wow, Xiangling's actions almost made the guests around her drop their jaws in shock. They thought that after accepting Arthur's evaluation, Xiangling would change her ways and stop making slime dishes, but they didn't expect the plot to develop in a strange direction.

It was hard enough for Xiangling to research slime cooking alone, but now she not only didn't give up, but also tried to get another person to join her. She really loves slime deeply.

Arthur had no intention of refusing, so he agreed to Xiangling's request.

After all, who hasn't thought about making something strange after learning how to cook? Just like Arthur had thought before, chocolate becomes liquid when it melts, so why not melt the chocolate and add milk to make noodles? This would increase the smoothness of the noodles while retaining some sweetness. Finally, you can drink a sip of chocolate milk soup after eating.

But after trying it, I just felt it was very subtle. I wouldn’t say it was unpalatable, but I couldn’t say it was delicious either. I can only say it was very subtle.

If anyone really wants to try it, it is recommended to use white chocolate, at least the appearance will be better.

"So are we going to try it now?"

Arthur followed Xiangling into the kitchen. As there were no new guests, Xiangling had plenty of time. She saw the slime gel and various ingredients scattered on the table. Fortunately, Master Mao, Xiangling's father, had a laissez-faire attitude towards his daughter, and he did not have the ability to guide Xiangling so he just let her do what she wanted.

Otherwise, just looking at the miserable situation in the kitchen, I guess as a parent, I would probably hit someone.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask you what your name is. My name is Xiang Ling, and my last name is Mao. You can just call me Xiang Ling."

"My name is Arthur."

"Well, Arthur, do you want me to take you to change your clothes and start now?"

Although Xiangling really wanted to start cooking, Arthur's outfit was obviously not ordinary clothing. Although it seemed a bit out of place in Liyue, as a person valued by Ningguang, Xiangling had also come into contact with all kinds of luxurious people, and she could tell at a glance that Arthur's clothes were of great value.

"No need, I have a way to keep it clean. Just treat it as an alternative magic method."

It is very troublesome to explain the principle of the cleaning technique, but this is Liyue, and Xiangling is the disciple of Grandma Ping. After hearing that it is a fairy technique, she did not make any extra preparations and directly started asking what to do.

Under normal circumstances, Xiangling should have tried it directly, but after hearing Arthur's suggestion, she knew that she had to consider the compatibility of the food. However, given the slippery colloidal structure of the slime gel, the only thing she could think of was to mix it with some cold vegetables. But in this case, there was no sense of innovation at all.

“Let me think…”

The properties of slime gel are more like modern jelly made from pectin, but it has no fixed shape.

But thinking of jelly, Arthur thought of a very simple method, that is pudding. The method is very simple. You only need to prepare jelly slices, milk, and some sugar. As for the slime gel, it will not destroy the structure of the pudding at all.

It’s more like the slippery jelly that cost one cent each in our childhood. Although it doesn’t have the small fruit pieces, it’s not a big deal.

As for jeezy slices, although this thing seems to not exist on the continent of Teyvat, there is pudding. Xumi uses Partisaran to make a special dessert, Partisaran pudding.

There is also a dish called rice pudding in Liyue, but it is called pudding, which is more like a dish than a dessert. Moreover, this dish only exists in Arthur's impression and may not appear now. The Partisan pudding only appeared in the recipe sent by the lady. Only then did he know that there was pudding in Teyvat.

"Okay, let's make pudding then."

Now that the dishes have been decided, the next step is to prepare the ingredients. Milk, sugar, and slime gel are all easy to obtain, but the most difficult thing is the jelly slices. It is even a question whether this thing exists. Partisan pudding is made directly from gelatin by Xumi, and it is the same thing as jelly slices, but it is obviously too late to find it now, so just make it on the spot.

Seeing that Arthur decided on the subject matter so quickly, Xiangling was glad about her decision.

"Then let's go make some colloid on site to fix the shape. Xiangling, put the fish bones and fish skin in the pot and boil them first, and then add some lemon to remove the fishy smell."

"Okay, Guoba, breathe fire."

Fish bones and fish skins are very common in the kitchen, so Xiangling took some out and threw them into the pot, then added a lot of water and lemon slices, and then asked Guoba to light the stove.

After seeing the rice crust act as a lighter to light the stove, the two began the waiting process. The next step was to wait for the fish bones to be removed, take out the lemon slices, and continue to simmer over high heat until the water evaporates and the fish bone residue is removed. What remains is the gelatin they need.

While waiting, Arthur was bored and stared at the rice crust next to him. No one would have thought that the mascot of Xiangling was actually a demon, the stove demon named Marcosius.

Seeing Arthur looking at him, Guoba waved to Arthur. Although he had lost his former memory and strength, his body's instinct told him that the person in front of him had a familiar smell.

Seeing Guoba being friendly towards him, Arthur went straight to Guoba, hugged Guoba and rubbed him back and forth. At first, he didn't buy the Guoba doll because he already had the Xiao Chiling version. Now that he saw the real thing, of course he had to experience it.

In this way, the water in the pot slowly dried up, leaving only some colloids, fish bones and some broken fish skin.

Arthur scooped the shaped product out of the pot and put it on a plate to cool, then took out a knife, removed the fish bones and skin, waited for the colloid to cool, and then sliced ​​it and dried it.

The rest of the work was very simple. The two took out a container and poured milk and sugar into it. Since the colloid had just been made, it did not need to be soaked in water and could be directly put into the container. The container was placed in a large pot. A certain amount of clean water was put into the large pot outside the container, and then the fire was turned on. When the water was found to have heated up but not yet boiled, the fire was turned off and the container was taken out. Next, Xiangling added the slime gel cut into pieces about one centimeter long into the container and stirred it evenly.

Then it's time to wait for the cooling process.

Just like that, a slime milk pudding was freshly baked. It seemed that no one among the guests outside wanted to try it, so two participants tasted it.

"Lulu!"

Guo Ba saw that the two were about to taste the freshly baked pudding and pulled their sleeves.

"You want to eat the rice crust too? You didn't eat any of the slime dishes I made before."

But Xiangling still served Guoba a portion of pudding.

Since there were no cups, the three of them held three bowls used for rice and began to enjoy the freshly baked pudding.

Chapter 61 Walnut

"good to eat!"

The pudding melts in your mouth, and the appearance of the slime does not destroy the taste of the pudding. On the contrary, the cool and smooth slime enhances the taste of the pudding.

"Lulu!"

After taking a bite of the rice crust, he also showed a cute expression, and then ate it with Xiangling.

The pudding was finished by several people in a short while. After Guoba finished the pudding in the bowl, he was still reluctant to leave and stared at the container containing the remaining pudding.

When Guoba was walking towards the stove, Xiangling grabbed him and pulled him back.

"You can't eat the rice crust, you have to let others taste it!"

"By the way, Arthur, can I put this dish on the menu of Wanmin Hall? Of course, it won't be for nothing. When you come over to eat, you can get a 20% discount on all the dishes."

"It's just a dish. No need to be so polite. Just use it. Aren't we friends?"

"Arthur you are such a good man!"

Xiangling happily rushed towards Arthur. To Xiangling, cooking was everything to her. Today she met Arthur, received his guidance and suggestions, and completed the slime dish she had always dreamed of. She also became friends with like-minded people.

For Xiangling, today is the happiest day in recent times.

Looking at Xiangling who threw herself into his arms and hugged him, feeling the touch of Xiangling's skin and the aroma of the dishes, and Xiangling's happy mood, Arthur was also happy about it.

"But you are worthy of being you, Xiangling. Even if you are wearing little, even if it is a reckless hug, there is no sense of romance at all. You are worthy of being the most unassuming woman in Teyvat."

Of course Arthur didn't say this out loud, but slowly returned the hug, because there really was no other affection between the two of them, it was more like chefs exchanging cooking skills.

"Is Xiangling here? The hall master is here!"

The appearance of a passionate voice interrupted Xiangling's hug. After separating, Xiangling and Arthur left the kitchen and saw the person who came.

A girl with twin ponytails in a gradient reddish-brown color, wearing a Chinese-style dress with floral patterns and a long back, and a Qiankun Tai Gua hat with a black bow on the back. Her pair of plum blossom pupils look forward as if she has psychic powers, which complements the peach blossom decorations around the hat, making the person in front of her even more lively.

Her slender fingers were painted with black nail polish, and her black robe reached her waist. Her slender legs were covered with only a pair of white socks, with a red rope tied around the socks.

"Hu Walnut, you're here, what would you like to eat?"

Seeing that the person coming was Hu Tao, Xiangling came to Hu Tao enthusiastically, took Hu Tao to an empty seat and sat down, then asked Hu Tao what she wanted to eat.

"Give me one... no, two servings of shrimp dumplings. Remember, no slime!"

Seeing Walnut's look, the guests around her showed sympathetic eyes. Although Walnut has been selling the set meal of Wangshengtang to everyone she sees, Walnut is still calmer when she is in Wanmintang. At least she will not be sold in the store. And since Walnut became the victim of slime cuisine, everyone felt some sympathy for Walnut after seeing her in Wanmintang.

Especially every time Walnut comes to order food, especially shrimp dumplings, she would habitually emphasize that she doesn't want slime. Slime is almost becoming Walnut's lifelong enemy.

"Okay, wait a moment."

Xiangling rushed to the kitchen again and started preparing Hu Tao's favorite shrimp dumplings. Because of the last accident, Xiangling always recommended slime dishes to her friends and repeatedly vowed that the same thing would not happen again.

However, Hu Tao, who never refused her own requests, went against her usual behavior and rejected Xiangling's request very firmly.

The shrimp dumplings were ready soon. Just as they were about to be served, Xiangling remembered that there was some pudding left. She found a small plate from the bowl rack and put a portion of pudding on it. Then she came out of the kitchen with the shrimp dumplings.

"Hu Walnut, the shrimp dumplings are ready, and there is also a freshly baked pudding. Arthur and I made it together. By the way, I haven't introduced you yet. This is Arthur, a friend I just met and a chef. He made this pudding."

"Oh? Arthur."

After Xiangling's introduction, Hu Tao finally shifted her gaze to Arthur, who had just come out with Xiangling. She thought he was a visiting guest, but unexpectedly he was Xiangling's friend and a chef. She seemed to have heard this name somewhere before.

"Oh, I remember now!"

Hu Tao finally remembered this name. She first heard it when she went to the Adventurer's Guild to promote her Hall of the Rebirth. She heard the adventurers around her mention it. It seemed that he was an honorary knight or some hero from Mondstadt, and they also mentioned the God of Wind.

But he is a god. Every year in Liyue, the God of Rock appears and issues oracles for the coming year. As the God of Wind is one of the Seven Gods together with the God of Rock, it is hard to imagine which god would come to visit other countries.

How could such a noble person as God be so idle?

Because they were afraid of Hu Tao's publicity, the adventurers left quickly as soon as they saw Hu Tao, so Hu Tao didn't ask what happened. She just thought that some powerful person had appeared again. Then yesterday, when her own guest came back, he said that he went to meet a friend whom he met for the first time but with whom he had a close relationship.

It seems his name is also Arthur.

"Are you the honorary knight of Mondstadt? By the way, are you also the friend that our guest scholar met yesterday? Our guest scholar's name is Zhongli."

"Yes, it's me."

Unexpectedly, Walnut knew him, but as long as he was not noticed because of his identity as the God of Wind, it would be fine. Although he inherited the Heart of God and has now become the God of Wind, he has not essentially crossed the boundary between man and God. God loves the world, but Arthur just wants peace around him.

"Hu Nut, come and try some. We have all eaten some just now. They are very delicious. If I hadn't reacted quickly, the rest of the pudding would have been eaten by the rice crust."

"Lulu!"

Guoba didn't know why he was dragged into this, but he couldn't speak, so he could only bark twice to express his dissatisfaction, even though it was indeed the truth.

"Okay, then I'm welcome."

Hu Tao finished eating the shrimp dumplings first. Because of his previous experience, he would pick up each shrimp dumpling with chopsticks before putting it into his mouth to make sure there was nothing strange in it. Soon, both servings of shrimp dumplings were eaten by Hu Tao.

After finishing the main course, Walnut patted his flat stomach, picked up the small spoon next to the plate, and put the pudding into his mouth.

When the pudding entered her mouth, stars seemed to flash in Meihua's pupils. Walnut held the spoon in her mouth and smiled happily. No lady can resist the taste of dessert, let alone a freshly baked pudding without any industrial technology!

Chapter 62 I am actually the son-in-law of the Ke family?

"good to eat!"

After taking a bite, Walnut felt the smooth pudding full of sweetness entering his mouth. He didn't know what the ingredients were inside, but the pieces were so chewy and bouncy that when he bit into them, they seemed to be jumping in his mouth.

Soon, Walnut finished a portion of pudding. After finishing it, she still felt a little unsatisfied. She leaned back in her chair, stroked her belly, smiled with satisfaction, and then looked at Arthur.

"I didn't expect that Zhongli, who looks like an old man, would have a chef friend like you. This pudding is really delicious. In my opinion, it can be used as a sign to open a shop in Liyue."

"By the way, what are those chewy fruit pieces? I feel like I've never eaten them before. If they're coconut flakes, they don't seem as smooth as this. If they're other ingredients, I can't think of any similar ingredients."

Hu Tao asked what was in her mind, but she didn't expect that Hu Tao, who was originally in a good mood, would change her expression drastically because of Xiang Ling's words.

"It's slime gel!"

Walnut looked at Arthur with an unpleasant expression. The starlight in her plum blossom pupils had disappeared, and now there was only a slow resentment. However, Arthur pretended not to see the resentment and looked around to avoid meeting Walnut's gaze.

"Hey, forget it."
