Gourmet: Midnight Vending
Chapter 511 - 412: New Variety: Bubble Tea Jianbing
After the cheese slightly melted, he cracked an egg directly with one hand.
Not long after, the egg liquid and cheese started to blend, creating a... very strange visual effect.
Chen Mo knew the egg was cooked, but because of the cheese, it looked like it wasn’t.
However, this didn’t affect the next steps of the preparation.
Normally, at this point in making a pancake, various condiments and fillings would be added, but since this is a fusion snack, the previous condiments were naturally all omitted.
Replaced by...
Chen Mo spread the cheesy egg over the pancake with a spatula. As the cheesy egg became more golden, he squeezed some cream cheese drizzle over the surface!
"What the heck! Can you actually eat this thing you made?"
"Dark cuisine! Pure dark cuisine!"
"Salty pancake paired with creamy sauce and cheesy egg?"
"Wow... he’s still adding more, he’s actually adding brown sugar pearls!!!"
The onlookers were customers who had just followed along, originally thinking of buying a pancake to taste, but were later attracted by the arguing uncle and the young man.
Watching the argument, they were pulled back to Chen Mo’s culinary creation, and now everyone was a bit stunned by his actions.
Can these be paired together?
Adding those condiments to a pancake felt like adding a nutrition supplement to spicy soup, can you even drink it like that?
And as the temperature rose, this bizarre pancake even started to emit an inexplicable aroma.
The aroma of egg and cheese blending created a "gooey" sweetness, but the brown sugar pearls themselves didn’t give off much flavor, focusing more on the texture.
But it seemed there was more to it than that.
The arguing uncle and young man heard the customers’ exclamations and couldn’t help but turn their heads to look.
The uncle saw Chen Mo spreading his pancake over a layer of black pearls, "What the heck? Hey, do you even know how to make a pancake? This is messing around, isn’t it?"
He didn’t even care about the argument anymore.
For someone from Tianjin, adding these sweet things to a pancake is like breaking spaghetti in front of an Italian!
The milk tea vendor saw Chen Mo spreading cream cheese drizzle over the pancake, then sprinkled a bit of shredded pork and seaweed powder, and finally added some basil.
He suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
"Seriously, dude, you..."
Chen Mo ignored the shocked looks of the people around him, folded the pancake on both sides, rolled it into a tube, and then cut it in half to reveal the insides, placing it in a brown paper bag.
The mixture of cream cheese and brown sugar pearls created a peculiar amber color, with the golden brown of the cheesy egg and the pancake’s light brown intertwining, further complemented by the green basil.
This thing had an indescribable weird vibe, yet somehow there was an odd harmony.
It was like... adding a nutrition supplement to spicy soup, a feeling that couldn’t even be described!
The uncle felt his culinary worldview had taken a massive blow, his eyes bulging as he swallowed hard, "Can this... thing even be eaten?"
The milk tea vendor also came over, thinking, "I’m just a milk tea guy, and you’re using my ingredients for a pancake?"
But for some reason, he sniffed, wondering aloud, "Why does it smell kind of nice?"
Chen Mo himself was also very curious about the strange fusion cuisine he had created. The taste had already reached an unimaginable level, and only by eating it himself could he know the flavor.
He picked up half a pancake and took a bite.
The savory and salty flavor of the cheese exploded on his tongue first, followed by the chewy texture and sweetness of the brown sugar pearls.
The creamy texture of the cheese sauce balanced out the dryness of the pancake, while the fresh scent of basil surprisingly countered the sweetness.
And in this mouthful, both in texture and flavor, the most extraordinary part was the pancake!
The originally crispy pancake turned soft after absorbing the cream cheese, yet maintained its distinct levels, similar to biting into a biscuit soaked in milk tea, and the sprinkling of basil wasn’t just for appearance, it added just the right touch.
It made the otherwise greasy pancake and creamy sauce not overly sweet, the hint of fresh flavor was truly the finishing touch!
Seeing Chen Mo chewing slowly and intently, the girl who had already eaten two pancakes became a bit anxious.
"How is it?" the girl in the sailor suit asked, tiptoeing.
Chen Mo didn’t speak, taking another big bite.
He didn’t really know how to respond; the texture and flavor were so... peculiar, a bit like eating a savory pancake soaked in sugar water.
Very peculiar.
But very delicious!
Seeing Chen Mo not speaking, just devouring the pancake enthusiastically, the onlooking customers couldn’t stand it anymore.
The girl in the sailor suit who had eaten two pancakes pulled at her twin ponytails, "I want to try it too~"
The pancake uncle looked at Chen Mo seriously, "Is it good?"
Chen Mo nodded with his cheeks puffed.
The milk tea vendor watched Chen Mo’s pancake with shock, "Is it really that good?"
Chen Mo continued to nod.
The rival shop owners, who had just viewed each other as enemies, exchanged looks and seemed to reach a silent understanding.
"Make one for me too!"
They both said simultaneously.
Chen Mo simply stuffed the rest of the small piece of pancake into his mouth, enjoying the sensation of his mouth being full and slowly chewing, it was just so satisfying.
Without saying much, Chen Mo slowly ate the pancake in his mouth and then went over to the milk tea vendor to get some more ingredients.
