After the dough was kneaded, the next step was to leaven the dough.

This was not a task about the skills, but about time.

He applied a layer of soybean oil, sealed it with preservation film, and placed it there for half an hour.

During this half an hour.

What Xu Le wanted to prepare was “Kung Pao Chicken”.

Although Xu Le had already familiarized himself with making it 5000 times in the system space.

However, this was his first time preparing this dish in real life after all. Moreover, he needed to gain the approval of the customers. Therefore, he was somewhat nervous.

Ms. Li watched attentively from the side.

She was not good at cooking, but if she could learn 50%… no, even 30% from Xu Le, she would be satisfied.

In reality, that was indeed the case.

The Kung Pao Chicken that Xu Le made was the most perfect and authentic recipe rewarded by the system.

Even in a five-star hotel, the Kung Pao Chicken might not taste better than Xu Le’s.

The only possibility was…

If it was made by some aristocratic family known for Sichuan cuisine or a descendant of a palace kitchen worker, they might be able to compete with Xu Le.

Other than that, there was no point in comparing.

“First, add a bowl of Kung Pao sauce.”

While Xu Le was cooking, he explained all his steps.

As for how much Teacher Li could learn after watching it once, that would depend on her own talent.

“The ingredients for the Kung Pao sauce are 40 grams of soy sauce, 40 grams of vinegar, 40 grams of sugar, 40 grams of wine, 8 grams of dry starch, 3 grams of salt, and 15 grams of ginger water.”

The scallions and ginger water needed to be made on the spot, but it was also very simple to prepare.

He just needed to take some scallions, a piece of ginger, and add water before smashing them in the blender.

As he spoke, Xu Le finished adding all the condiments.

A bowl of bright red sauce had appeared in his hand.

It looked like ketchup, but it had a completely different flavor.

“Then debone the chicken thigh!”

Xu Le placed a few chicken thighs he bought from the supermarket on the chopping board. He took out a deboning knife and cut the drumstick at the joints before slicing it upwards.

At the edge of the blade, flesh and blood separated.

In less than ten seconds, the chicken thigh had been split into two parts.

Chicken meat and bone.

There were no broken bones stuck to the chicken meat. The bones were also clean and there was no trace of meat.

“Amazing!”
