Chapter 242: All Kinds of Skewers with Different Flavors
The soup slowly heated up, and Jiang Qiuqiu picked up the small skewers from the basin.
She placed some specifically on the left and others on the right. As for the more ’versatile’ ingredients, she put some on both sides.
The first skewers she put in were the ones she had prepared herself, all uniform in size and thickness. But then—
[???]
[Did my eyes just deceive me? What is that thing?]
[What’s with the sudden change in style? They’re so uneven! And pitifully small!]
[Juju definitely didn’t skewer these. Who did this... They’re such a noob.]
Many fans noticed the skewers prepared by Mo Chengyu and the others, and they all started roasting them.
Jiang Qiuqiu laughed. "Looks like you all have sharp eyes. That’s right, the workload for skewering everything was too big this time, so I asked my neighbor to help out! After the stream, I’m going to invite her over to eat skewers."
[! Juju, where do you live? Is there still a chance for me to become your neighbor?]
[I can skewer stuff too! Juju, interested in considering me?]
[Does the girl next door have a boyfriend? If not, see if I’m a good fit? It’s not that I want to live next door, I just suddenly have the urge to skewer things.]
[Shameless, commenter above! How can you ask for one girl’s contact info in another girl’s stream? Watch me: Juju, are you in need of a boy toy? The kind that can be sweet or savage, does chores, supports himself, and can even generate currency for you.]
[...You’re the shameless one, commenter above!]
[Pfft, pfft, pfft, get lost, get lost.]
The viewers happily fired off all sorts of comments in the bullet chat, while Jiang Qiuqiu took the opportunity to prepare the dipping sauces.
The modified broth was of the nourishing and savory variety. For those who preferred a lighter taste, a simple dip in a refreshing oil-and-vinegar sauce was enough to bring out the ingredients’ natural flavors.
For those who liked it spicy, a combination of ground dry spices, a little pepper, and a spoonful of sesame oil created an irresistible flavor, adding fragrance to the heat.
After she finished mixing the large vat of dipping sauce, Jiang Qiuqiu handed it over to her assistant robot to portion out into small dishes.
Jiang Qiuqiu then began her explanation.
"There are many kinds of skewers today, and each one tastes different. If I were to portion them out, you might not get the ones you want most."
"So today, the giveaway slots will be for individual skewers." Jiang Qiuqiu set the number of claim attempts in the stream to six. "Everyone can try six different kinds of skewers, and the assistant robot will have the sauces available on the side in a moment for you to choose from freely."
"And, since I’m worried you might not recognize these skewers or know what their textures are like, for the rest of the time—"
—it was time for Jiang Qiuqiu’s personal food tasting show.
The first item she chose was, of course, the daikon radish. She picked up a piece with her chopsticks. The camera robot moved in close to her hand, its lens zooming in for a tight shot. The white radish, cooked completely through, had faint wisps of steam rising from it.
Under the light, it looked exceptionally translucent.
After the close-up, Jiang Qiuqiu gently pressed with her chopsticks and broke the piece in half, sending out a splash of tempting juices. Then, it disappeared from the screen. A faint chewing sound followed, and Jiang Qiuqiu said, "Daikon in clear broth. This skewer only comes in the light-flavor option. It’s been cooked for a long time, so it’s very flavorful."
"It’s slightly sweet when you bite into it. Eaten without any sauce, you can taste the broth and the natural, fresh fragrance of the radish itself. Each portion comes with two pieces this size. If you’re interested, you can go ahead and claim one now."
As she finished speaking, the little robot, having already portioned out the dipping sauces, came over to fork a piece of radish and upload it.
Since it was the first skewer to be uploaded, almost everyone was just watching and waiting.
