Chapter 123

Shi Wen sniffed and said, "I don't think I've ever eaten this before. What is it?"

Ge Yue squeezed in. "I know, it's a famous street food—mashed potatoes with bits of meat, milk, butter, and a bunch of toppings."

Yan Kexing turned to Shi Wen and smiled, "Bring your own bowls, I'll mix them for you."

Without saying a word, Lin Chengqian ran to the sterilizer, grabbed a stack of bowls, and eagerly handed them to Yan Kexing, saying, "Teacher, I've brought them to you."

Yan Kexing then scooped up some mashed potatoes for them and added various condiments from a small bowl next to them, telling them to mix it with a spoon and go eat it on the side.

Shi Wen eats everything. Holding a large bowl full of mashed potatoes with various toppings, she inhaled the aroma and then scooped a spoonful to Yan Kexing's lips. "You eat too."

Yan Kexing took a bite and gestured for him to eat it himself.

Shi Wen a spoonful and popped it into my mouth, then was quickly captivated by the mashed potatoes with sauce.

Potatoes are a common food, and Shi Wen eaten them countless times, but this is the first time I've tasted such soft and smooth mashed potatoes.

This mashed potato is so smooth, probably because of the milk and butter added. It's really silky and moist, with a wonderfully milky flavor.

Besides milk and butter, it also contains diced meat and minced garlic, which give the mashed potatoes a wonderful texture.

As for the chili oil drizzled inside, it's the soul of the whole bowl of mashed potatoes with sauce.

Shi Wen took a bite and exclaimed with delight, "This chili oil must have been freshly made by you, right? Otherwise, it wouldn't smell so good!"

Yan Kexing: "Yes, it's fried with our own dried chili peppers."

Shi Wen took another bite. "This mashed potato smells so good!"

Yan Kexing: "There's still some left here, give some to the little ones."

Gong Jiang and the other two were so engrossed in their food that they couldn't even lift their heads.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chengqian raised his hand with tears in his eyes. "I request another bowl, this mashed potato is absolutely delicious!"

Yan Kexing nodded. "Then eat another bowl, and save some room for the rest of the potato feast."

Shi Wen, "I'd like another bowl."

Hearing them dividing mashed potatoes, the dogs outside the door started whimpering impatiently.

An Wa, in particular, whistled and hopped around in place, making a sound like whistling coming from her nose.

Gong Jiang turned to look at An Wa: "We'd better hurry up and divide them up, or An Wa will start to get impatient and start talking."

When An Wa heard her name called, she stood at the door and barked loudly at Gong Jiang, her face full of "You're getting impatient because you can't have it."

Shi Wen glanced at An Wa's expression, smiled, set the bowl aside, and went to pick up the pot. "Alright, alright, I'll divide it up for you right away."

The dogs hopped around in place, barking.

The little fox was so anxious that it practically stepped one paw into the house, whimpering.

All the little ones in the family can eat potatoes, but some can eat more and some can only eat less.

Shi Wen people taking pots out to divide the food among the animals. Those who eat vegetables get more mashed potatoes, while those who eat meat get more meat broth and meat chunks. The main feature is customized categorization.

The little ones finally got to eat potatoes, burying their faces in their bowls and eating without lifting their heads.

By the Shi Wen finished distributing the potatoes to them, Yan Kexing's meal was almost ready.

Today we mainly ate dry-pot baby potatoes, braised beef brisket with potatoes, and stir-fried shredded potatoes with vinegar. In case they choked on too many potatoes, Yan Kexing also specially made a crucian carp and tofu soup.

Today, no one had to call us; everyone brought their bowls and chopsticks to the table without us having to ask.

Shi Wen still wanted to try the taste of baby potatoes, so my first bite was of dry-fried baby potatoes.

The dry-pot baby potatoes are steamed and then pan-fried. Each baby potato is coated with an enticing golden-brown crust, while the inside is filled with yellow potato flesh. When you break them apart with chopsticks, you can see the steam rising from them.

He ate a piece; the potato was slightly charred on the outside but very soft and tender on the inside.

The potato was completely dry, coated with some seasoning granules, and you could vaguely see chili powder on the outside. However, it was very soft and tender, not dry at all, and had a subtle, almost imperceptible, flavor.

Putting everything else aside, this dry-pot potato dish truly brings out the essence of potatoes.

Shi Wen exclaimed with amazement, "The potato flavor in this dry-pot potato dish is so strong!"

Lin Chengqian enthusiastically recommended. "Brother Shi, you must try this braised beef brisket with potatoes! It's so delicious you'll cry!"

The aroma and taste are delightful; the potatoes are soft and fluffy, Shi Wen the beef brisket is firm and chewy. The contrast in texture alone is exceptional.

When you bite into it, the potato chunks are infused with the aroma of the beef brisket, and the beef brisket is infused with the aroma of the potatoes; the two are indistinguishable and both are very fragrant.

It was indeed very delicious.

The stir-fried shredded potatoes with vinegar on the side were also perfect; the crispness of the potatoes, the sourness of the vinegar, and the spiciness of the chili peppers combined perfectly, tantalizing the taste buds to the extreme.

Every bite is so tempting that you wish you could eat three bites of rice to accompany it.

Shi Wen sniffed the air; just thinking how delicious potatoes were, he figured he was going to turn into a potato-headed idiot starting today.

It's so delicious!

Chapter 123

We dug up so many potatoes at home, Shi Wen gave some to his friends.

His potatoes are so delicious that everyone who has tried them raves about them.

Fu Meng and his family also asked for some potatoes from his family as seeds, saying they wanted to plant a batch before winter arrived.

When winter comes and the weather gets cold, bringing a few small potatoes home and warming yourself by the fire will surely make life very comfortable.

Shi Wen very generous; whenever his friends asked for something, he would give it to them.

Red-skinned potatoes are more starchy and have a stronger potato flavor. Purple-skinned potatoes are crisper and have a unique aroma.

Half the people asked about the two types of potatoes, while others wanted both.

People don't take it for nothing; when they come to his house asking for potatoes, they always bring him something else as a gift.

With so many positive reviews for the potatoes, Shi Wen discussed with Yan Kexing, "How about I send some potatoes to our members as a gift for August?"
