Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 554
After his tongue was poisoned by the strange potato powder, Li Xiao drank three cups of Coke for a whole day, until his stomach was filled with carbon dioxide, and the strange taste of potato powder in his mouth disappeared completely, and then he stopped drinking water.

"I feel that the mouth that has been ravaged by potato flour can only be saved by "happy taste"."

"I've never eaten such a strange potato snack in my life."

Sitting on the seat and feeling the sizzling sound in the mouth and stomach of the bubbles of happy water, Li Xiao couldn't help licking his teeth, as if the creepy taste was still lingering on them.

"Today's gourmet check-in journey is almost over here."

"Or it's time to set off from Lanzhou to the next destination."

"While I'm on the road, I'll be live-streaming what's happening on the road."

"As for now, I should pack my bags and leave this sad city."

"Of course, the above is just a joke. The main reason is that I have been shopping in Lanzhou for the past two days and feel that I can start."

Li Xiao hiccupped and cleared his throat.

"Then today's live broadcast is almost over here, and we can watch the scenery on the road together when we start tomorrow, chatting and chatting."

Turning off the camera and walking out of the store, Li Xiao slammed his mouth, feeling full of fullness in his stomach filled with happy water.

The pile of food I ate just now was useless.

After returning to the bun shop, he packed two cages of buns as a last favor for the store. Li Xiao saw that there was nothing interesting around him, and drove back to the hotel instead.

On the way, I came across a small mobile food truck selling steamed buns. I bought two and planned to take them back for Jiujiu to try.

I don’t know where I heard that pandas love to eat steamed buns. It would be great if Jiujiu could eat them at his age.

Li Xiao, who was back in the hotel, was surprised that today's Jiujiu didn't climb up to his ankle immediately, walked into the room and looked around, and finally saw the black and white dumpling on the table in front of the oven.

"Chirp?"

"Master, you are back! This, this molar stick is so delicious, Jiujiu couldn't help but want to eat it!" Seeing Li Xiao come to Jiujiu to put one hand on the table and the other hand to hold Li Xiao's trousers and act coquettishly, "Master Okay, Jiujiu will take a bite first!"

"Then do you want to try the molar stick first, or drink a pot of milk, or this bun?"

Seeing the cone-shaped buns that Li Xiao took out, and then looking at the new molar stick beef bones that are still in the air-drying process in the oven, and thinking about the sweet taste of pots of milk.

"Jiujiu wants to... try a molar stick! No, I'd better try this steamed bread, ah no, I'd better drink a pot of milk!" Jiujiu said indiscriminately, looking here and there, and finally scratched his head, simply He managed to keep Li Xiao's thigh.

"Jiujiu wants it all!"

"Pfft," Li Xiao almost laughed out loud, "No problem."

······
Early in the morning, Li Xiao began to count the things he should bring.

This time, we will go on the longest highway in the Han Kingdom. Although there are places to rest on the road, it is still not as complete as this suite.

Jiujiu's pots of milk, teething sticks, his own dry food, electric treasure...

By the way, I have to fill up the oil when I go out later.

Li Xiao, who was still wondering if he had left anything behind, looked around the room while eating the breakfast delivered by the hotel.

At this time, suddenly there was a furry feeling around his feet.

"Master!" Jiujiu, who had long been accustomed to using "roll" instead of crawling, pawed at Li Xiao's trousers, trying to climb up his body along his calf.

"Don't Jiujiu go to bed?" Picking up Yuangungun from the ground, Li Xiao began to rub the head of the dumpling while eating breakfast.

The fluffy touch doesn't feel greasy no matter how you knead it, Jiujiu is simply a treasure in the world.

"By the way, I have to prepare orange cake porridge for Jiujiu." Li Xiao finished breakfast in two or three bites, hugged Jiujiu in his arms and took a deep breath, then walked to the kitchen. If Li Xiao didn't realize it when it came out, he probably forgot to give it to him later. Jiujiu is doing diet therapy.

"Jiujiu likes orange cake porridge!" Hearing Li Xiao's words, the dumpling suddenly became more energetic.

After working in the kitchen for a while, it was almost noon when Li Xiao set off from the hotel with Jiujiu.

Li Xiao thought for a while, and decided to pack another hand-caught mutton and go on the road.

The highways in Gansu are very different from those in other places. One of the reasons is that the greenery here is much less visible to the naked eye than in other places.

Also because of the geographical location, the wind and sand here are stronger than other places.

Just about five or six kilometers away from the urban area, the traffic in front of me slowed down a lot after getting on the elevated road.

"Di Di-"

"Di Di-"

There are constantly grumpy car owners ringing the bell, but it has no effect on the progress of the traffic flow.

"Why don't you leave!"

"Come on, I'm still waiting to go home!"

The car owners next to Li Xiao smoked and complained with the windows open next to Li Xiao.

"Brother, do you know what's going on ahead?" Seeing Jiujiu who was sitting in the box next to him nibbling on the big bone with relish, feeling a little bored, Li Xiao also opened the car window and started chatting with the people next to him.

"I'm afraid something happened in front of me. It's quite normal to encounter this kind of thing when I go out. It's just a matter of luck."

The eldest brother saw that the driver was a handsome young man, and saw that the other person had an extraordinary bearing, so he restrained his bad temper immediately.

Not long after, a young policeman wearing a traffic police vest rode a motorcycle and raised a horn and began to broadcast the events ahead:

"I'm sorry, everyone. There was a rear-end accident ahead. It will take some time to deal with it. If it's convenient, please go through the fork here first, so as not to delay your time."

Li Xiao, who heard the radio, turned on the map and found that Wuwei was just past the fork road that the traffic police said.

Although this place was not in the plan of the map before, since people have said so, it is not an option for him to continue spending time here, so he simply drove there with a small number of drivers who were willing to detour.

Wuwei is not very famous, but the name before the name change is better known - Liangzhou.

Speaking of this, Li Xiao also has another historical idol who was born here.

Jia Xu - one of the five great advisers of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period.

The past disappeared like clouds and smoke, and as the light wind and sand blew past, what appeared in front of Li Xiao was the famous Liangzhou-Wuwei.

Huge red characters hang above the toll booth at the intersection of the expressway, and in front of Li Xiao are cars in twos and threes.

Slowly driving into this thousand-year-old city, you can see the scene of people coming and going on the street.

And at the front of Li Xiao's car, a small restaurant appeared in front of him.

Suddenly, Li Xiao felt that his stomach was suddenly hungry.

A "Liangzhou Mutton Pancake" appeared in front of Li Xiao.

The radar from Li Xiao immediately told him that this is a must-see restaurant—although part of the reason was that he just happened to be hungry and wanted to eat.

"Jiujiu, I'm going out to eat later, can you just wait here for me when I come back?" Li Xiao's eyes softened as he touched Xiaotuanzi's head, which he had gnawed happily on the molar stick.

"Okay!" Raising his head to rub against Li Xiao's palm, Jiujiu finally let go of the molar stick in his arms, and pulled towards his palm, "Master, can you bring me that small ball to eat? "

It took Li Xiao a long time to watch Tuanzi gesticulating its paws before he understood what it was talking about, mainly because he had brought only a few things to Jiujiu.

To enrich Jiujiu's diet, it needs to grow up and have a stronger stomach.

"Wowotou? No problem." Li Xiao parked the car at the entrance of the restaurant, thought for a while, and left the car keys in the car.

If the engine is turned off directly, Jiu Jiu's oxygen condition in the car will deteriorate and the illness will worsen, which will not be worth the candle.

After checking again that there were no other abnormalities, Li Xiao walked into the restaurant with peace of mind.

He chose a place with the best view to sit down, and when he picked up the menu on the table, he was still staring at his car from time to time.

"Boss, is it convenient to introduce your mutton pancakes?"

"No problem!" A middle-aged chef wearing the iconic Hui hat came to Li Xiao from the back kitchen.

It's not time for dinner, so the appearance of Li Xiao driving over like this was obviously recognized by the store as a foreigner. The boss was very patient with such a customer, and began to introduce in detail:

"The mutton in our family is all goats raised by ourselves. Don't worry, young man, it is delicious and cheap. A pancake and a catty of mutton are only 80 yuan."

The boss made a hand gesture, his face full of confidence.

"Then have a mutton pancake." Li Xiao nodded, watching the other party go to the back kitchen to prepare, he opened the live broadcast room, and pointed the camera at the environment around him.

"Good afternoon, everyone. Because of an accident on the highway, I can't go together for the time being. I came to the famous Liangzhou," Li Xiao continued to introduce, "This restaurant specializes in mutton pancakes. , appeared in front of me after I got off the highway intersection, I felt it was a kind of fate, so I came here."

The store is still busy in the back kitchen, Li Xiao is worried about the situation of Jiujiu, so he just sits in the seat and introduces to the audience.

Mutton pancakes, as the name suggests, are pancakes wrapped with mutton stuffing, which can be said to be a well-known delicious snack in Liangzhou.

Chop the slaughtered mutton into large pieces, put them in a pot, add star anise, bay leaves, pepper, cinnamon and other spices and cook for one to two hours to cook the spices, then take them out and let them cool, cut the meat and chop into small pieces Put them into the pan, add mutton oil, sesame oil, scallions, shredded ginger, chili peppers, and minced garlic, fry until cooked through, and take out of the pan.

After finishing these, it is only the filling part of the pancake. The second step is to roll out the dough that has been woken up before, put the filling on the dough and spread a thin layer, cut it from the middle, and fold it like a quilt It is stacked up, and the corners can be put into the pot and started to be baked.

Put a little cooking oil in the pot and bake the pancakes on low heat until both sides are slightly browned. A mutton pancake is ready.

Just as he was introducing, the boss put a plate of mutton pancakes in the shape of four and a half yuan dumplings in front of Li Xiao.

The fan-shaped pancake, which is as thick as a palm, has a dumpling-like edge, which looks rough and delicate.

Putting on the disposable gloves, Li Xiao was slightly scalded by the heat from the pancake when he picked it up.

"It smells like a mouth-watering spicy scent."

Li Xiao was even more pleasantly surprised by the taste after she swallowed it.

"What about the pancake crust on the outside, it's half-crisp but not crispy."

"The part that has been baked to a golden color tastes a little crunchy, and the part that is mostly white tastes like the softness and hardness of ordinary bread."

"One layer of pie crust, one layer of mutton, another layer of pie crust, and another layer of mutton..."

Li Xiao counted and found that such a not-so-thick pancake had six layers.

"I don't know what technique the boss used to make such a pancake so delicate."

"The mutton stuffing in the middle tastes very tender, and it won't have the feeling of being old."

"The mutton should be thigh meat. It tastes fat and thin, fat but not greasy, and soft."

"The fragrant chili is paired with the springy five-flavored mutton, and the taste is richer."

“A delicious lamb pancake.”

"If you put a little less salt, it will be more in line with the taste."

"However, most of the food eaten here in the past two days is relatively salty, which should be regarded as a local specialty."

"Giving 90 points is well deserved!"
