Early that morning, the hardworking Chef Xu was already bustling around the kitchen in the Educated Youth Courtyard.
With the system's help, she had no shortage of ingredients, even in the materially deprived sixties and seventies.
But Yunjian had protected her far too well in her previous life. Forget cooking proper meals-she had never even cooked instant noodles herself.
Now, even with the system walking her through every step, the results of her cooking were still beyond description.
To complete its mission, however, the system interfered with Xu Miaomiao's senses. In her own eyes, she was a culinary prodigy.
All she needed was to hear the system describe a dish's preparation once, and she could reproduce it exactly.
In this life, her goal was to become the richest woman through her own abilities.
In her previous life, she had made her name with a single braised pork dish. After achieving fame and fortune, she had eaten so many delicious foods that reproducing just a few snacks would be enough to conquer everyone's stomach in this era.
[System: The spices for grilled gluten are-star anise, black cardamom, cassia bark, galangal, bay leaf, Sichuan pepper, sand ginger, tsaoko, fennel, and gardenia. Just crush these bananas.]
The system recited the grilled gluten recipe from its database, ingredient by ingredient.
Seeing Xu Miaomiao standing blankly in front of the stove like a dim-witted goose, it considerately labeled the pile of spices before her.
[Xu Miaomiao: This many spices? Could that possibly taste good?]
Xu Miaomiao picked up a handful of cassia bark, studied the dry stuff in her hand, and even tapped it.
[Xu Miaomiao: It's so hard! Are you sure this can go in food?]
Her stupid questions made the system want to roll its eyes.
