MTL - Attack Stream of Life-Chapter 87
A newcomer, no recommendation, no fans, no appearance, the only gimmick is probably his 12-year-old on the personal page.
The traffic of the website visitors is large, and after a while, a few people pass by the live broadcast room, and three people stay.
【Huh? Making artisan food for such a young child? Is it reliable? 】
Parents these days, they are willing to go out of their way to pay attention. By the way, can I sue him for child abuse and commercial fraud? 】
【Although you can't see your face, you can tell he is a beautiful child by looking at his hands~ Even if you just pour yogurt on the fruit platter, Auntie will support you~】
Qingchuan doesn't care about these teasing words.
He said while peeling the yam in his hand:
"Food is the greatest comfort in the world, as reliable as a loved one, as caring as a friend, as full of surprises as a lover."
"Only in the world of food, can we have a generous love, sweet, sour, bitter, salty, inside and outside the north, south, south, north and south. Only the world of food is full of sincerity, if you like it, if you don't like it, you don't like it, you can't lie No one else can lie to you."
"Food is like beauty, it must be nutritious to meet the needs of our body, but also delicious to meet the needs of our spirit. Today you can be more demanding, not only nutrition, not only Delicious, with a delicate shape and a rich aroma."
The ingredients needed today are lined up, and the hands covering them are carved like white jade, revealing a delicate luster.
"The sweetness of red dates, the moistness of yam, the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus honey, an encounter under the rain of peach blossoms in March. Red dates and yam cake, I hope you like it."
Small cafeteria.
A straightforward and simple name suddenly appeared in the food column. Although it only lasted for a second, it also attracted many people to watch.
At this time, it was the meal time in many places. They searched aimlessly in the food bar and accidentally noticed this somewhat special but not cool name
The tourists thought they were going to see a gentle and simple old woman, the wrinkles on her face carried the tenderness of the years. Or a middle-aged man with two dimples on his face, his chubby hands are not holding the pot, but the magic of food.
But I don't want to be slapped all over my face by a little kid who makes the heart tremble inadvertently.
hit the eardrum.
If it weren't for the fact that the drake's voice in the voice-changing period was too stealthy, maybe they would be so sweet that their hearts trembled.
"...Across the virtual network, you and I walk on the cobwebs of time intertwined, occasionally intersecting, just like our short-term fate now, and then staggered, walking on the road of our own lives The fate of this accidental encounter and intersection will be scattered in time, and there will be no trace."
"How can you believe that there are meaningless encounters in this world? For thousands of years, sooner or later, I just happened to see you."
If this kind of words were said in reality, it would be very embarrassing, but in the virtual world, a child uses arias that read poems and speaks mature words that are not suitable for his age, he will only feel cute It's funny, not 'disgusting'.
A bit deliberate, a bit jerky, like a poor performance. But since I was a child, I forgave everything. He even applauded sincerely and coaxed the child to continue acting in a silly manner.
[I want to control my face. ...Hahaha, sorry, couldn't control it, laughing and crying. Am I being embarrassed by a child? 】
[It hurts, the baby doesn't cry. 】
[Seeing the host's serious look, I know I shouldn't laugh, but I...poof]
Swipe…
Qing Chuan held back his smile, wondering if there was something wrong with the interstellar laughs? Did he say something ridiculous?
This is the first time he faces the live broadcast room. Although he has also broadcast live in the live broadcast system before, he has not really interacted with anyone.
In the virtual classroom, there are teachers teaching. It is an old grandmother who is live-streaming paper-cutting. Qingchuan has been following her for two years. He consciously imitates, but the audience's reaction is completely different.
For some reason, at this moment, he suddenly felt that he understood Wei Ge.
The tourists laughed for a while, he froze for a while, and finally realized that these words were a bit nondescript at his biological age. He is not a mature, prudent and graceful gentleman like a jade, nor is he a grandma with life wisdom, but a yellow-haired child, no wonder he is laughable and generous.
"The biggest fear of live streaming is not embarrassment, not mistakes, but boring. Don't be afraid to show yourself, and don't be afraid to make mistakes. If you sometimes feel that something is not right, then quickly adjust your pace and method, Follow the method that you are most familiar with and get to the point quickly." The voice of the grandmother in the virtual classroom appeared in his mind.
Throwing away a bunch of clichés in his head, he coughed.
"Hello everyone, what I am going to make today is yam cake with jujube mud. This is a kind of Chinese cake that is nourishing and delicious, with both connotation and appearance."
"Jujube and Chinese yam are especially suitable as healthy ingredients in March. Red dates can nourish qi and blood, yam can strengthen the spleen and stomach, and jujube mud yam cake tastes sweet, easy to overcome, and has a long-term illness. People can also eat some. Regarding the origin of this dim sum, it is a legendary ancient book, Dream of the Red Chamber.”
"There are a lot of descriptions about food in A Dream of Red Mansions. There is a dessert that I like very much, sugar steamed cheese, and I have the opportunity to make it for everyone."
"Sometimes it is very interesting to read a book and guess what kind of food was eaten in ancient times. Food is closely related to people's life, which can reflect the material civilization and spiritual civilization of that time. So food is not just food, it should be called 'the culture of food'."
【Huh? Why are you so serious? 】
【What is Dream of Red Mansions? 】
This kid is a little interesting, I'll check for this snack later. I am a Ph.D. in the Department of Oriental Ancient Literature. 】
Do you have a sense of public morality? I wonder if children can laugh at them? 】
【Hey, it’s disgusting, it’s all taught by my parents to memorize it, I don’t even see the face, who knows what it looks like? 】
At first glance, it is not serious food, and it is definitely not delicious. 】
】
[I am interested in that ancient book, I really want to know what the ancients ate. If you eat the same food as the ancients, there will be a feeling of being connected by something to two people in two time and space. It's wonderful to think about. 】
For a thousand years, Interstellar has its own traditions and customs, as well as many new recipes and delicacies. However, as an interstellar civilization, a thousand years of cultural accumulation is still too short and too short, so it is often ridiculed as a barbaric nation with no background.
All kinds of masters are now studying the ancient literature and books left over from ancient history and the era of great immigration.
That's why Qingchuan's website only became popular in half a month. The appearance of these long-disappeared books is tantamount to giving help to these researchers, and every book has been downloaded and studied frantically.
They are eager to know, where is the root of their own nation, and where did they come from? What kind of life did your ancestors lead? What kind of cultural blood is flowing in your genes?
"About an hour, the dates are already steamed. It's a little hot, so it's best to wear insulated gloves. I used to dislike using metal and rubber products, which will have these two on the surface of the food. The taste of different materials remains. Now even though the materials are very high-tech, I still like to use natural materials.”
"The outer layer of these gloves is linen. The steamer is made of bamboo and covered with a piece of gauze. But you don't have to do this at home, it's purely a matter of my habit. In fact, don't The tools of the material are also very useful.”
He paused when he said this, "Of course, the most important thing is who is using the tool?"
In his field of expertise, he naturally exudes strong self-confidence. This confidence attracted a group of tourists who happened to pass by.
The upper layer, and the soft jujube flesh is squeezed to the lower layer. At this time, you must pay attention to the pressing method, not too rough."
"Oh, if you can't understand what the gentle technique is, just imagine that you are waiting for a once-in-a-lifetime result, uneasy, hesitant, and thousands of thoughts, your hands seem to be rubbing unconsciously Squeeze it?"
While talking, he patiently strained the jujube meat into the bowl below, his voice had a very relaxed smile, and it seemed to be so sweet that it made people forget the voice of the drake hoarse.
"Add a little brown sugar to the filtered jujube puree, and you can also add a little cornstarch. If you like it a little more moist, you can fry it with plain oil, it will be more creamy."
[This step seems to be the feeling of an experienced master handling sturgeon roe, which seems to have a wonderful charm. 】
No, the stomach rebelled, why did it start to secrete gastric juice before it was meal time? I'd better place an order to buy something to eat, I'm so hungry. 】
[It looks very professional, definitely not just playing casually. Could it be the child of a culinary family? Even adults can't do it, can they? 】
【Wow, this jujube paste looks very delicate and smooth, like chocolate sauce. The last time I saw an anchor make red date cakes, I also tried it once. It was very difficult. I wasted half a catty of red dates. Why can even a child do it so well now? 】
As soon as I learn it, I will lose it as soon as I do it. I may be that kind of person. It seems that supermarket packaged food is our destination. 】
[Maybe it just looks good, but it may not taste as good as the packaged food. 】
[Is it leveraged upstairs? Can anything? 】
Hmm, he said he was a master chef, so that professional certificate has some moisture. 】
A poor man can't afford a restaurant, let alone a chef. 】
】
"The jujube paste has been made, and it looks like a lot of weight." He washed the gauze and his hands, and then used a clean gauze to deal with the remaining traces, leaving only the middle one filled with jujube paste. bowl.
[So virtuous, the grown-up who hasn't washed the dishes since he had a housework robot expressed his shame. 】
【Am I the only one who has been licking my face? These hands can play for a year. 】
】
【The world of adults is so dirty. 】
Because of being stimulated before, Qingchuan has not looked at the screen now, and did not find the topic in the live broadcast room a little crooked. He carefully handled the remaining ingredients.
"The yam has also been steamed. This is a three-year-old iron stick yam. I prefer the powdery texture of the iron stick yam. If it feels too dry, you can add some yogurt in an appropriate amount to have a unique flavor. ' said he added a little yogurt.
"Because it's not the full version of the yam cake, I only steamed it for half an hour. The yam needs to be pressed into mud. I personally like to use the method of pounding the medicine. You can add some japonica rice according to your favorite taste. flour and glutinous rice flour.”
His movements of pounding yam are very fast, and an ordinary pounding action is matched with special techniques, which seems to have a wonderful rhythm.
The audience can only see the phantom of the hand, the movement is steady and fast, with the regular sound of pounding the medicine, like art.
"Such a yam puree needs to be steamed for another half an hour. After steaming, it will be very beautiful jade white. The next step is to wait quietly. Waiting is also an important part of cooking. It is difficult to be impatient. Be a good cook."
He learned the live broadcast mode of the teacher in the virtual classroom, using the best movements and angles that the audience can see, and performing the skills he is best at.
People are most confident and attractive in their areas of expertise.
Then match with emotional language descriptions to convey your feelings to the audience, not just boring technical descriptions and obscure professional terms.
The audience wants to see beauty, so try their best to convey the beauty they feel to them.
And most importantly: love what you're doing.
When Qingchuan was really immersed in it, he once again recalled the intention of making delicious food, and wanted to make those who eat it feel happy.
The aroma of the food passed over, and the soft emotion soothed him. Little by little, his emotions were wiped away, and he became very peaceful.
Qing Chuan frowned, temporarily forgetting the task at night and the anxiety that I can't wait for.
"Sometimes the completion of some ingredients even takes a year or two or even dozens or hundreds of years of waiting. Waiting is a long heartburning process, but when you eat it in your mouth, you will find that all the waiting It's all worth it."
"If it were any other time, I could do some of my own things now. But now it's a live broadcast, why don't we take advantage of this time to do some gadgets to coax children."
[The anchor said that I am already an adult, so cute. 】
[Suddenly remembered the bayberry sauce made by my grandma, it is really difficult for people who are impatient with food to make heart-warming deliciousness. Although the bayberry sauce sold in the supermarket is also delicious, I don't know why, but I always feel that the taste is very frivolous and cannot stand the scrutiny of time. Although the anchor is very young, he is full of confidence in him at this time. As long as it's not outrageously expensive, I'll definitely buy one. 】
[I want to apologize, at first I thought it was just a fake food anchor selling age, but after watching it all the way, I found that it is more professional than many popular food anchors. Looking at the technique, you can see that after countless practice, there is this kind of instinctive freedom and self-confidence. Looking forward to getting one. 】
[Can I sue his guardian for abuse? It's not normal for such a young child to master such proficient cooking skills, right? 】
[Maybe it's the host's own interest. 】
Unconsciously, there were more and more people in the live broadcast room, and there were more and more discussions about this live broadcast room, almost arguing, until a colorful big local tyrant swiped the screen.
【Quiet, the host seems to be doing sugar painting. Sugar painting is a rare hand-made candy-making technique. It is a craft that combines food and art that people liked in ancient times. 】
In an instant, the screen was in harmony, and everyone went to see the anchor. Sure enough, the anchor was carrying a white ceramic spoon, ready to paint on a cooling plate of the same ceramic.
"I don't know what everyone likes. Now the local peach blossoms are blooming just right, why don't you draw a few peach blossoms, do you like it?"
Qingchuan holds a spoon in his left hand, and a bamboo strip with a flat end and a tapered end in his right hand. The syrup from the spoon is drawn on the chopping board, and the middle trembles twice, appearing on the white ceramic plate It is an angular branch.
Then he poured the syrup as thin as noodles, and drew the veins of the leaves with bamboo strips. After the deep and shallow sugar hardens, it seems like a real leaf, crystal clear, and there is even a drop of dew on the tip of the leaf that is about to fall.
Qingchuan used the same method to make several leaves of different shapes and sizes.
"Making peach blossoms is not the same as making leaves. Because the petals must have a layered sense, although it is flat, the delicate feeling of layers and layers must be made, otherwise it will be a failed candy Painting. We're going to start with the bottom petal and build up layer by layer. The petals have to be thin and very soft."
The petals are layered on top of each other, and they are well-proportioned and not at all messy.
When it was finally finished, the peach blossoms on the chopping board were so real that they seemed to bloom completely at any time, but looking at the thickness, it was thinner than the thickness of the sugar solution on the branches.
"It looks very simple, right? But if you don't know enough about peach blossoms, you can't make it. Just like other artists, you need to understand the objects you make and the tools you use. Only with bamboo can you have a good idea. To make sugar paintings, you also need to understand the properties of sugar liquid, the solidification time of sugar, and the shape after hardening.”
【What is Confidence? Bamboo grows on your chest? 】
At this time, the ancient literature doctor in the live broadcast room was again popularizing the meaning of 'with a good mind', as well as the origin and derived meaning of this idiom.
【Just these four words, there is such a story and meaning behind it? 】
[Is the anchor engaged in literature or archaeology at home? I feel like I know a lot. But do these things have any meaning other than occasional pretending? 】
It is worthless to pursue it with great pains. I don’t think so.”
Qingchuan looked at the screen, even if others couldn't see his face, he still said seriously: "Civilization is the root. Miao, there was a saying in our history: if you want to destroy your country, you must destroy its history. The meaning of history never lies in the past, but in the present and the future.”
