My Husband, a Marshal: Conquering the Stars with My Culinary Arts-Chapter 607 - 205: Off to a Good Start
Du Xixi made up her mind. Taking advantage of a short break in the morning, she began preparing the ingredients needed for making Victory Cake. After having lunch and letting her food settle, she entered the kitchen, skillfully opened her Light Computer, and started live streaming.
stood right beside Du Xixi, acting as today’s "Food Assistant."
[——Huh, Madam is actually live streaming? When I clicked in, I thought it was an advertisement.
——Add one to the floor above, I was just wondering who would be so bold to live stream in Madam’s name. I was planning to bust a fake, but when I clicked, it was a beauty strike from Madam, hi-happy ~
——Eh, am I the only one focused on the things placed in front of Madam? Why does that big piece of wood have so many holes? It seems there’s something inside the holes...
——Are those patterns? I can’t see clearly, but it probably looks nice.
——Above, how do you know it looks nice if you can’t even see it clearly?
——Exactly, I just feel like it might not look nice.
——The few upstairs are definitely newcomers. Although our Madam is a food streamer, who doesn’t know that the food from Madam’s hands is known for being beautiful and delicious? Even an ordinary white bowl has to look good.
——Braised pork looks good, sweet and sour ribs look good, braised lion’s head looks good, and also fish paste cakes, tangyuan, pickled chicken feet...
——In short, Madam is actually a beauty enthusiast, and nothing under her hand can be ugly.
——Agreed!
...
——While those guys above are chatting about Madam being a beauty enthusiast, I’m a bit more normal. I only care about what delicacies Madam will make today.
——Haven’t seen for months, I almost missed Madam and the food to death, but Madam has heartlessly stayed in the Food Department seriously teaching classes and has forgotten about us.
——I only recognized red beans and glutinous rice, the big jar next to it should be the rose sauce Madam made several months ago, right? Can’t tell what Madam is going to make, there’s also a type of rice I don’t recognize there.
——That’s called Japonica rice, a kind of rice that is relatively hard and elastic, haven’t you guys been paying attention in class before? Madam has talked about it before, showing us several types of rice.
——...Too hasty, I was just busy admiring Madam’s beautiful looks and food, where did I have the attention to listen properly!
...]
Seeing these familiar usernames and their comments, Du Xixi knew her fans still remembered her, and her heart warmed. Seeing many people curious about what delicacy was being made today, Du Xixi warmly said, "Today I’m going to make a very delicious and meaningful cake called Victory Cake."
Du Xixi moved the livestream slightly back, so everyone in the stream could see more clearly the ingredients and tools laid out on the table.
"A simple stone mill, a basin of glutinous rice, a basin of Japonica rice, a basin of red bean paste, and a mold needed for making Victory Cake." Du Xixi introduced each item in turn, and when it came to the special mold, she held up the "long piece of wood," clearly showing the internal patterns to everyone.
Du Xixi gently turned her hand, and the mold rotated with her hand, revealing the intricate carved words "Victory" clearly to everyone.
[——Victory... Cake... it’s Victory Cake! I saw it clearly! The carvings are so clear!
——Is this the mold? Feels like I’ve never seen it before, it seems Madam specially customized it, right? Hehehe, I’m going to search for related shops now; once I learn how to make Victory Cake today, I must try making it at home!
——Thanks for the invite, I’ve never had the perseverance of the brother above. Even though Madam’s teachings are very simple each time, my eyes can keep up, but my hands can’t. What’s that phrase Madam often says?
——’My eyes tell me I’ve learned it, but my hands tell me to stop dreaming.’
——Hilarious, sometimes even my eyes can’t keep up.
——:)
...]
Before it even started, some were already "admitting defeat," Du Xixi chuckled, placed the mold down, and with her not-so-small strength now, she easily lifted the simple yet heavy stone mill, placing it effortlessly in front of her.
"To make Victory Cake, we first need to grind the glutinous rice and Japonica rice into coarse powder, not too fine is okay." Du Xixi scooped a large spoonful of glutinous rice with a spoon, gently poured a portion into the opening of the stone mill, then she held the stone mill with one hand while gripping the handle with the other, starting to grind with force.
