Gourmet master of the Pokemon world
#91 - Picking asparagus
Because Ange successfully won over Orinyu, he was in a very good mood on the way back.
After returning to the upper level from the middle level, he slowed down the Super Energetic Ostrich, strolling back leisurely, and taking the opportunity to admire the scenery of Zone Zero.
Two Fragrant Porks walked in front, leading Tan Xiaoshi and Orinyu to look here and there, occasionally digging up novel things from the soil.
The two Orinyu had never had such an experience before, and they found it very interesting, chirping and chatting with Fragrant Pork and Tan Xiaoshi, their voices occasionally revealing novelty and surprise, which diluted a lot of the sorrow of parting.
When Ange and the others passed by a hillside, the two Fragrant Porks suddenly rushed over.
"Oink oink ~"
"Oink oink ~"
They called out excitedly.
Having been with them for a long time, Ange knew they must have found something when they called out like that.
He jumped off the back of the Super Energetic Ostrich nimbly, "Did you find new ingredients again?"
"Oink oink ~"
"Oink oink ~"
The two Fragrant Porks nodded repeatedly, jumping and leaping happily, finding new ingredients meant that Ange would make delicious food for them!
At this time, two Orinyu and two Tan Xiaoshi struggled to carry a pile of things almost as long as themselves.
"Chacha ~"
"Linyu ~"
They raised the things in their arms to Ange, asking for credit.
Ange squatted down, pulled out one of the things from Tan Xiaoshi's arms, and said in surprise: "Isn't this asparagus?"
Asparagus is the seedling of asparagus officinalis, generally only available in the mild climate of spring, Ange did not expect that Zone Zero at this time would also have growth.
What a magical place.
Ange got up and raised his arms and shouted: "Let's go, let's pick asparagus, we'll make something delicious tonight!"
"Oink oink ~"
"Chacha ~"
The Fragrant Porks and Tan Xiaoshi, who had tasted Ange's cooking skills, cheered immediately.
Although Orinyu didn't know why, seeing Fragrant Pork and Tan Xiaoshi so happy, he also happily raised his hands and cheered.
Following Fragrant Pork to the place where asparagus grew, Ange immediately led everyone to pick it.
Ange introduced to everyone while picking: "Pick the tender ones, don't pick the old ones, the old ones are not tasty."
Earlier, Tan Xiaoshi and Orinyu had picked quite a few old ones.
"Brother Ange, look, is this okay?" Pipa came over with the freshly picked asparagus to show Ange.
"Chacha ~" Look at mine.
"Linyu ~" Look at mine too.
Ange checked it and said: "Okay, all okay, Orinyu and Tan Xiaoshi are very capable!"
"Chacha ~"
"Linyu ~"
As soon as Tan Xiaoshi and Orinyu heard this, they immediately happily夹 the picked asparagus under their armpits, they were small and could only hold the asparagus like this.
Ange himself was actually picking asparagus for the first time, the asparagus he ate in his previous life was all bought, and it was artificially planted.
"Everyone, pick the kind that is crispy and breaks easily, don't pick the ones that are hard to break!" Ange shouted to everyone.
Pipa: "Got it!"
Two Tan Xiaoshi: "Chacha ~" Oh!
Two Orinyu: "Linyu ~" Got it!
There are quite a lot of asparagus on the hillside, a green patch, each one very straight.
Crack crack crack ~
One asparagus after another was picked by Ange and the others, if they didn't pick this thing now, it would get old, Ange temporarily bought a basket from the system store, and soon picked a full basket.
Pick more and store it in the system backpack, and let the Pokémon at home taste it after returning home.
There are too many asparagus growing here, they can't be picked at all, soon it was evening, Ange and the others had already picked a large basket full, but they hadn't even picked a small half.
Ange straightened up, patted his sore knees, and then clapped his hands and said: "Everyone, it's getting late, we should go back!"
"Oink oink ~"
"Chacha ~"
"Linyu ~"
… …
Upon hearing this, the Pokémon ran to Ange with a pile of asparagus in their arms, the little faces of the two Orinyu were flushed because they had been busy for a long time, and there were drops of sweat on their foreheads.
Pipa followed closely with Mastiff Boss, he took off his coat and came back with a coat full of asparagus.
Ange looked at his equally red face and asked with a smile: "Are you tired?"
Pipa shook his head, "Not tired!" Even if he was tired, he wouldn't be tired when he thought about having delicious food tonight, and he was very much looking forward to continuing to learn cooking from Brother Ange.
Putting all the asparagus into the basket and then into the system backpack, Ange said to everyone: "Let's go back!"
So the two of them took a group of Pokémon back to Observation Station 1 in a mighty manner.
The doctors and researchers were still working, so the entire observation station seemed very quiet, only an occasional Pokémon cry came from nearby.
Ange summoned Little Munchlax, Diancie, and Keckleon from home.
"Have the Pokémon at home all had dinner?" Ange asked.
"Ji mie ~"
Keckleon gave Ange a thumbs up, indicating that everyone had eaten.
Because Ange was not there, the Pokémon could only eat Pokémon food for breakfast, but Little Munchlax and Keckleon still made dinner, and Ange still earned happiness points.
Ange said: "Very good, then let's make dinner too."
So everyone worked together to put tables and chairs on the grass outside, and then began to prepare dinner.
There are lights outside the observation station, so even if it is dark, you don't have to worry about not being able to see.
Ange took out the light cod meat that he hadn't used up yesterday and asked the two apprentices: "Little Munchlax, Keckleon, can I trouble you to make some fish balls and cook a fish ball soup."
"Gang ~" Leave it to me.
"Ji mie ~" No problem!
Little Munchlax and Keckleon replied in unison.
Then Ange looked at Pipa and said: "Pipa, can I trouble you to help cook rice?"
Pipa asked hesitantly: "Can I do it?"
Ange nodded and encouraged him: "You can definitely do it, didn't Little Munchlax teach you at noon? Be confident, if you don't understand anything, ask me at any time, cooking rice is not difficult."
Encouraged by Ange, Pipa gained confidence, nodded vigorously, and then began to recall the cooking steps of Little Munchlax at noon, carefully busying himself.
Mastiff Boss behind him couldn't help but show a kind smile as he watched Pipa, who was full of energy.
Mastiff Boss was the Pokémon that the two doctors gave to Pipa, and he has been with Pipa since he was called Mastiff, it can be said that he watched Pipa grow up.
Because of work, the two doctors had very limited time to spend with Pipa, but Mastiff Boss has always been with Pipa, from learning to speak to the current young boy.
Because he couldn't help, Mastiff Boss lay down on the grass next to him, put his head on his two front paws, watched the busy Pipa with blinking eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.
Ange on the other hand was preparing to start cooking asparagus.
Thinking that there were still some fresh shrimps stored in his system backpack, Ange decided to use it and asparagus to make a stir-fry with shrimp and asparagus.
After washing the asparagus and setting it aside, Ange processed the fresh shrimps, removing the shells, shrimp lines, etc., leaving only the shrimp meat, and then washing it clean.
These shrimps are all produced in Lake Nibel, the shrimp meat is fresh, tender and transparent, without any fishy smell, and the quality is extremely high.
The first step is to marinate the shrimp first.
Place the shrimp in a bowl, add an appropriate amount of salt, cooking wine, and white pepper powder, stir well, and set aside.
The second step is to blanch the asparagus.
“Carefree Little Charcadet, I'm counting on you.”
After preparing a pot of water, An Jie said to the Crybaby Charcadet.
“Cha ca ~”
The Crybaby Charcadet responded, then obediently squatted under the stove, its body emitting flames, and soon a pot of boiling water was ready.
While boiling the water, An Jie had already diagonally cut the fresh asparagus into sections.
Two Oricorio stood on the table, curiously watching An Jie cook. An Jie reminded them, “Don't get too close, be careful of being splashed by hot water.”
“Linyu ~”
“Linyu ~”
Upon hearing this, the two Oricorio quickly retreated backwards.
An Jie nodded in satisfaction, then put the asparagus sections into the hot water and added a little salt.
Blanching can make the asparagus brighter, maintain its emerald green color, and also make the taste more crisp. However, be careful, the blanching time should not be too long, otherwise it will lose its crispness.
Drain the blanched asparagus and set aside, then it's time to stir-fry.
An Jie took out a small bowl and placed it in front of one of the Oricorio, “Oricorio, can you give me some oil?”
“Linyu ~”
The Oricorio happily nodded, aimed the fruit on its head at the small bowl, and a stream of golden oil poured into the bowl with a gurgling sound, and suddenly a special fragrance filled the air.
“Okay! Okay!”
Soon the small bowl was filled, and An Jie quickly called to stop the Oricorio.
Putting the small bowl aside, An Jie took out an oil bottle and placed it in front of the two Oricorio.
“You can pour the stored oil into this oil bottle.”
The Oricorio's oil is produced by them through photosynthesis. When food is scarce, they consume the stored oil to replenish their strength.
Now that the two Oricorio have followed An Jie, they will never have to go hungry again, so they can discharge the stored oil and then continue to produce new oil through photosynthesis.
If the oil stored in their bodies is not discharged, they will not be able to continue to produce oil through photosynthesis, which is also a waste.
“Linyu ~”
“Linyu ~”
The two Oricorio nodded upon hearing this, hugged the oil bottle together, moved to the side, and then began to pour oil into the oil bottle.
Withdrawing his gaze from the Oricorio, An Jie looked at the Crybaby Charcadet and said, “I have to trouble you again!”
“Cha ca ~”
The Crybaby Charcadet quickly got up and came to the bottom of another pot, and soon heated the pot.
An Jie poured the Oricorio's oil into the hot pot. As the oil was heated, its unique fragrance became more intense. For a time, the two Swinub, the Espeon, the Mabosstiff, and the Diancie, who was setting the table, all looked over.
It's worthy of being Oricorio's oil, no wonder it is praised so much in the outside world, it really is fragrant!
Oricorio's oil is already so fragrant, An Jie can hardly imagine how fragrant the oil of an Oliva would be.
How much I look forward to the Oricorio evolving into an Oliva in the future!
With a “sizzle” sound, An Jie put the chopped garlic, ginger, and other ingredients into the pot and stir-fried them. For a time, the fragrance became more intense and domineering.
Oricorio's oil can completely release the fragrance of other ingredients, and ordinary oil simply cannot compare with it!
Then, after pouring the marinated shrimp into the pot, An Jie asked, “Carefree Little Charcadet, can the fire be turned up a bit?”
Shrimp needs to be stir-fried over high heat.
“Cha ca ~”
The Crybaby Charcadet responded, its whole body's flames soared, and suddenly the sound of “sizzling” in the pot became more obvious. An Jie quickly stir-fried, until the shrimp changed color, he added the blanched asparagus to the pot and stir-fried together.
Finally, pour some light soy sauce, monosodium glutamate and other seasonings into the pot, and the fragrant stir-fried shrimp with asparagus is ready.
“Carefree Little Charcadet, you can come out now!”
An Jie said to the Charcadet under the pot rack.
“Cha ca ~”
The Charcadet responded and walked out, seeing An Jie clip a piece of asparagus and send it to its mouth.
“Come on, help me taste it.”
“Ah ~ ~”
The Crybaby Charcadet opened its mouth and swallowed the asparagus in one bite, crunching and chewing. The crisp taste and special fragrance made it unable to stop.
(ˊ〇ˋ*) It opened its mouth, wanting to eat another bite, An Jie patted its forehead and said, “Eat it at dinner later.”
The Crybaby Charcadet looked disappointed upon hearing this.
At this time, the two Oricorio came over carrying the already filled oil bottle, looking at An Jie with anticipation.
“Thank you!” An Jie took the oil bottle and put it aside, then also clipped a chopstick of the freshly stir-fried dish and fed it into their mouths.
It was the first time for the Oricorio to eat human food. The impact of the delicious food was very strong, it can be said that it went straight to the top of their heads, their bodies trembled under the stimulation of the rich fragrance, and their taste buds were like they were dancing.
“Linyu ~”
“Linyu ~”
The two Oricorio excitedly held hands and ran and circled on the table.
“Is it delicious?” An Jie asked with a smile.
“Linyu ~”
“Linyu ~”
The two Oricorio squinted their eyes, held their cheeks with both hands, and nodded incessantly.
An Jie said, “It's good that you like it, you'll have many more opportunities to eat delicious food in the future.”
The two Oricorio happily held hands and circled again.
After the asparagus was stir-fried, An Jie and his three apprentices successively made scrambled eggs with tomatoes, stir-fried pork, smashed cucumber, braised cabbage with soy sauce, spicy codfish with chili, and stir-fried chicken with mushrooms.
Adding the fish ball soup made by Sobe earlier, tonight's dinner was ready.
Just as An Jie and the others brought dinner to the table, the professors and researchers came out smelling the aroma.
Professor Sada: “I guessed it was An Jie cooking.”
Professor Turo quickly walked to the table and took a deep breath, “It's so fragrant!”
The other researchers also gathered around.
An Jie said with a smile, “You guys came at the right time, quickly sit down and eat.”
One researcher couldn't wait to say, “Great, I've been so hungry for a long time.”
His colleague teased him, “I saw that when the professor didn't call you, you were so busy that you didn't even blink your eyes, are you really hungry?”
Hearing this, everyone laughed.
The researcher punched his colleague, “I think you want to monopolize the food made by the prince!”
“Oh, you found out!”
Amidst the teasing, everyone laughed even more happily.
Raifort squeezed next to An Jie, “Your Highness, I'll sit next to you.”
“Gang ~”
Little Munchlax dissatisfiedly pushed Raifort, the position next to the master was his.
An Jie said with a smile, “Okay, I have two sides, you two sit one on each side.”
Diancie: What about me?
An Jie: You sit opposite me.
Soon the table was surrounded, and everyone quickly moved their chopsticks, eating so much that they couldn't even bother to talk.
After eating and drinking their fill, everyone lay on the grass chatting. The topics that the two professors and researchers talked about were too high-end, and An Jie and Nemona couldn't join in, so they could only play with the Pokémon on the side.
Only Raifort listened with great interest, and also took out a notebook to listen and take notes.
Before long, Atticus, who was delivering the food, came again. Seeing the table full of bowls and plates, he knew that the professors and researchers had eaten again.
After leaving the food according to the professor's instructions, Atticus left on Corviknight again.
After chatting for a while, the professors and researchers helped An Jie and the others clean up the dishes, and then dispersed.
The professors and researchers still had to continue working, and it was unknown when they would be able to finish.
