Becoming a God by Raising a Witch

Chapter 74, A cat who knows how to taste!

Lao Rani and Fedor also gathered around curiously, wondering what novel dishes the newcomer planned to make.

Locke washed and drained the white rice and put it into a transparent glass bowl. He chopped the onions and tomatoes, diced the colored peppers, washed the Kosolk shrimps and trimmed off the long beards, washed the shrimps and removed the intestines, and cut the squid into pieces. Wash the mussels and cut the chicken breast into cubes.

When working with larger shrimp and scallops, Locke cuts them open and in half so they cook evenly when reheated.

Locke soaked the clams in sesame-oil brine and let them spit out sand quickly.

The chicken is boiled into stock and set aside.

After completing these preparations, Locke poured olive oil into the pan and heated it, added shrimps, mussels, and clams, and cooked in white wine when they were half cooked.

Then fry the chicken, take it out when both sides are golden, and put it on a plate for later use.

Add olive oil to another pot. When the oil is hot, add chopped onion and garlic until the aroma overflows. Add chopped tomatoes and stir-fry until fragrant. After the tomatoes release their juice, add peas, japonica rice and red iris.

The red iris of Kosolk is actually crocus, which was called saffron in Locke's previous life.

Until the rice grains turn a nice orange color, Locke adds diced bell peppers, then adds an appropriate amount of white wine, and cooks for a while to allow the alcohol to evaporate.

Add the stock, bring to a boil, season with salt and black pepper, add the squid rings, fried chicken breast, mussels, prawns, and clams.

Pay special attention to the heat at this time. Bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat. Locke covers it with a piece of aluminum foil to allow the rice to fully absorb the soup.

Tear off the aluminum foil, and the golden-yellow and fragrant Kosolque paella is ready.

Finally, Locke picked up an eighth of a lemon wedge and poured the juice over the paella.

Locke wiped the sweat from his forehead and was about to taste the taste when he noticed an extra cat in the kitchen.

This is a black cat with a dark body, a small body, and a proud temperament.

The black cat walked over slowly, with hope in his eyes.

Xiao Ai? Why did you come here?

Locke looked at Erin in surprise, with worry in his eyes.

Is what he fears most about to happen?

Could Rhaenys have discovered Aelin?

"What are you afraid of? That existence has erased the witch's aura from my body. No one will find me."

Erin jumped onto the table.

Lao Rani and Fedor immediately looked at the black cat with vigilance, and Fedor even tried to drive the black cat away.

"Where did the cat come from?"

Locke stopped Fedor and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, this is my cat. Her name is Xiao Ai. She has the most amazing tongue in the world. She will taste all the dishes I have made first. If she nods, , it means it tastes good. If you shake your head, it means failure. Don’t underestimate her tongue. I am where I am today thanks to Xiao Ai, a food connoisseur.”

Locke had to make up a special identity for Irene, otherwise Old Lani and Fedor would definitely drive her away.

"Really?"

Fedor and Lao Lani looked at each other in disbelief.

"Let me show you."

Locke picked up the spoon, scooped out a small spoonful and brought it to the black cat.

The black cat opened its mouth gracefully.

The salty and sour flavors form two flavor wheels, giving Erin a rich treat for her taste buds.

She narrowed her eyes with satisfaction and nodded slightly.

Fedor and Lao Rani looked at this scene in shock.

I never thought a cat could really know how to taste delicious food!

Fedor and Lao Rani couldn't wait to take a small bite.

Old Rani once again felt like spirits dancing on the tip of his tongue.

Fedor gave a thumbs up and praised again,

"Locke, you are such a genius. I never thought rice grains could be so delicious."

"From now on, you will love rice."

Locke said with a smile, intending to deliver this plate of delicious, delicious and delicious paella to the director.

Because the portion cooked this time was quite large, even if a plate was served to Rhaenys, the stock in the kitchen would still be enough for Lani, Fedor, and Locke to have lunch.

So Lao Rani and Fedor were in a good mood.

The two planned to wait until Locke returned from delivering the meal and enjoy this delicious lunch together. As for the other people in the Sixth Public Security Court, they could also eat the delicious semi-finished ice-boiled lamb.

Old Rani and Fedor personally escorted Locke out of the kitchen.

"Locke, what's this called?"

Lao Lani suddenly asked.

"I call it Kosolque Paella."

Locke said.

Lao Rani silently took out a notebook and recorded the dish.

He decided that he would record every dish that Locke cooked in the future and compile it into the Kosolk Gourmet Locke Cookbook, compiled by Rani Lean McCullough.

Locke said goodbye to the kitchen and went to the hall on the first floor. He snapped his fingers and the greedy pigeon flew over.

Lao Lani and Fedor also turned around and returned to the kitchen.

When they looked expectantly at the big pot that held the Kosolk paella for three people, happy smiles froze on their faces.

The black cat Irene has already solved the paella in the pot in a very short time.

She was not one to waste food, so not a grain of rice was left.

There were quite a few empty shells.

…

Locke came to the door of the director's office and gave the pigeon a piece of bread again.

The dove flew away with the bread in its mouth.

Locke heard the conversation between Rhaenys and the demon in the office.

"I've learned this damn chocolate pudding, why are you still not satisfied?"

the demon asked dissatisfiedly.

"You try what you are doing. Is this called learning?"

Rhaenys's cold voice came.

"It must be that despicable Locke who is hiding his secrets and is not willing to teach Fedor the real production method to that pig."

The devil said dissatisfiedly again.

"Stop complaining. Don't touch Locke until you learn how to make chocolate pudding."

Dong dong dong——

Locke knocked on the door.

The demon shrank back and returned to his pipe.

Rhaenys opened the door, and Locke came in with a dinner plate, and opened the lid. The aroma of Kothulk's paella filled the air instantly.

A trace of joy flashed in Rhaenys's deep eyes. She had had enough of Lao Lani's cooking, and today it was finally not steak.

“Kosolque paella, hope you like it.”

Rhaenys nodded slightly. This time she did not let the demon in the pipe dress up as a maid to come out to work. Instead, she did it herself, picked up the spoon, and put the paella into her mouth.

With just the first bite, she was conquered by the sweet and sour taste, the salty taste, and in addition, there was a slight spicy taste.

Rhaenys liked the smell.

【Ding! Feeding the witch was successful! 】

[Witch favorability +1]

[Witch Rhaenys Hill’s current favorability is 1]

[When the favorability reaches 100, the witch Rhaenys Hill will do anything for you]

Chapter 75, Senior Sheriff Reserve

When Locke left Rhaenys's office, the Demon in the Pipe had one more thing to learn, Kothulk Paella.

"If you can't learn Kosolque paella, you can't touch him."

"Damn it, I will definitely learn it! Don't underestimate the devil's determination!"

Locke heard this conversation and left the third floor with a smile on his lips.

When they returned to the kitchen, they saw old Rani and Fedor looking constipated.

As well as an elegant black cat who is well fed and drunk, and a kitchen that is a mess.

In order to catch Irene, Lao Lani and Fedor not only dropped the kitchen utensils and tableware all over the floor, but also hung up the decorations.

Rani Sr. was injured on the left side of his face and Fedor on the right side.

The two look very symmetrical.

"Sorry, my cat is a little naughty."

Locke had already guessed what happened. Irene must have eaten the paella in the pot, and then the two cooks started to drive her away, which led to the current situation.

"Locke, if you want to bring this taster over again, you must abide by the kitchen rules."

Lao Lani said with a serious face, "I am the biggest here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and slapped his mouth.

Fedor opened his mouth and asked worriedly,

"Old Lani, are you okay?"

"No, it's okay. What happened to me just now?"

Old Rani was also stunned.

Locke coughed twice and hugged the black cat into his arms to stop her from continuing her prank.

He whispered,

"If I lose this job, Mick will no longer be able to buy you good ingredients, and you will have to eat cabbage every day."

Eileen curled her lips,

"I hate cabbage."

Old Rani's eyes suddenly turned red, and he pulled Fedor excitedly.

"It must be Doris, it's Doris. Whenever I said these words in the past, she would slap me mercilessly. Just now it must be Doris' soul. I said she has not left me. She Didn't leave me."

Fedor looked around nervously, his beer belly trembling, "No way? Don't scare me."

"Foolish, Doris would never hurt me, she is the love of my life."

Old Rani cursed.

Locke wiped the sweat from his forehead, "There is still broth, why don't I make the paella again and we can eat it together."

"OK."

Fedor nodded in agreement.

"Then we need to wait until lunch time is over. Now it's time for us to work. Doris likes to see me working hard."

As Old Rani said, he pushed a bucket of ice-cooked goat into the canteen passage connected to the kitchen.

Fedor also pushed a bucket and waved to Locke, "Locke, follow."

"good."
