Help! That vine is begging for help every day

Chapter 137 Only Eat the Food Made by Youyou

Now that it's autumn, it gets dark earlier, and it's raining heavily outside, so there must be not many people around, so it's very convenient to do things.

Jiang Hengzhou realized that his behavior just now was a bit inappropriate, but the water that had gathered together could not go back, so he said softly: "There is a water pipe outside the house next door. I will go over and borrow some water."

Shi You nodded. This was the only solution at the moment. He responded, "Okay, remember to give them some money."

Act stealthily, but be upright in your thoughts.

After Jiang Hengzhou flashed out of the space, Shi You turned off the fire of the soup she had cooked and put it directly into the other side of the space.

If baby cabbage is left in the soup for too long, the taste will be greatly affected, but Jiang Hengzhou's dish of cold shredded potatoes probably takes half a day to make.

And according to the domineering president’s cooking habits, it is unlikely to be successful the first time. Chef Jiang still has a long way to go.

Shi You was busy with what she was doing when she suddenly smelled the fragrance of sweet potatoes spreading in the air. She glanced at the sweet potatoes in the oven and saw that the skins of the sweet potatoes that were lying flat had swelled up.

He took a deep breath of the roasted sweet potato smell in the air with anticipation. The sweet potatoes must be delicious and he must show off some of them later.

Not long after, Jiang Hengzhou came back. Although his body was not wet, there was still some moisture on it.

Moreover, his arrival made the air in the space moist, bringing a freshness and coolness after the rain.

When Jiang Hengzhou came back, he smelled the fragrance in the air. When he saw Shi You's back in front of the stove, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

Days like this are really nice.

He walked closer, gently put his arm around Shiyou's waist, and placed his head on his shoulder. "I have stored the water in the space. It will be enough for us to use for a while. Also, I put a few coins next to it..."

After hearing this, Shi You nodded slightly, but a ripple involuntarily arose in her heart.

Why does this scene seem so familiar, just like a husband reporting to his wife when he returns home after a day's work.

Shi You gently moved her shoulders, wanting Jiang Hengzhou to leave, and also trying to dispel this weird thought, "Well, get out of the way and go cook."

"Oh."

Hearing the aggrieved tone, Shi You sighed helplessly, turned around, patted Jiang Hengzhou on the shoulder and encouraged him.

"Chef Jiang, I've already boiled the water. Just continue washing the shredded potatoes. Remember not to blanch them for too long and to cool them down after blanching. Come on!"

After saying that, without caring about Jiang Hengzhou's reaction, he turned around and continued to work on the potato pancakes in his hand.

The four potatoes that Jiang Hengzhou peeled were so big that the shredded potatoes filled an entire bowl.

Just now, after Jiang Hengzhou went out, Shi You looked at the pot of shredded potatoes and couldn't help feeling a little worried.

If it were all made into cold potato shreds, he would rather go back to eating cat food now.

Shi You glanced at the unopened flour on the stove, and suddenly had an idea. He decided to use half of it to make some shredded potato pancakes.

Today's dinner already has soup and vegetables, the only thing missing is a staple food. Roasted sweet potatoes don't count, that's the dessert after the meal.

He did it right away, and happened to have an electric griddle, which saved him the trouble of tossing and turning the pan.

When Jiang Hengzhou came back, the first potato pancake was already half-cooked.

It’s amazing that even though Shi You hadn’t cooked for a long time, her cooking skills had not declined. In a short while, the potato pancakes were fried. They were golden and crispy, and the kitchen was filled with fragrance.

Shi You's work was going very smoothly, but on the other side, Jiang Hengzhou, who had just fished the shredded potatoes out of the cold water, was in trouble again.

He held a box of candy in his hand, his eyes fixed on the words on the recipe, looking a little hesitant. Finally, he turned to Shi You and shouted, "You You, should I add sugar to the shredded potatoes? I'm not sure."

Hearing this, Shi You turned around and replied, "You can add some, but don't put too much."

He learned how to cook completely from those video bloggers. When he first started cooking, he was also confused as to why sugar was added to salty dishes.

It seemed like he couldn't tell the difference between flavor enhancers and seasonings, but after a long time, he got used to it and just followed the tutorials.

Jiang Hengzhou nodded, and according to Shi You's suggestion, carefully added a little sugar to the shredded potatoes.

Shi You placed the last cake steadily on the plate, then turned and walked towards Jiang Hengzhou.

When it came to the final seasoning step, Shi You was still a little worried. After all, if her hands shook carelessly, all the hard work of half a day would be gone.

Fortunately, Jiang Hengzhou knew something about cooking and did not add any seasonings according to the amounts on the menu at will.

He held a small spoon in his hand and put only a little at a time, tasting the flavor and then adjusting it according to needs.

Shi You felt that this was quite similar to when she first started cooking, and her worries were slightly alleviated.

Soon, a plate of delicious cold shredded potatoes was served on the table, and today's dinner officially began.

This seemed to be the first time the two of them had dined at the same table. In the past, Shi You would usually sit alone at the table eating and drinking, while Jiang Hengzhou would help or sit and watch quietly.

Shi You took the chopsticks handed over by Jiang Hengzhou, picked up the shredded potatoes and tasted them. "Hmm, it tastes really good! Comrade Jiang Hengzhou, it seems that you really have a talent for cooking. Keep it up!"

Although there was some encouragement in these words, Shi You sincerely thought that the dish was well cooked.

It is neither too sweet nor too salty, nor does it have a weird taste due to too many seasonings.

The blanching time for the shredded potatoes is just right, and they still retain their crispy texture, which is the taste that Shiyou particularly likes.

Jiang Hengzhou chuckled when he heard Shi You's praise. He followed Shi You's words and said, "Okay, I will definitely study hard in the future."

After saying that, Jiang Hengzhou also picked up a piece of potato pancake and took a bite. He was a little surprised by the crispy crust and perfect seasoning.

It turns out that Youyou was not exaggerating, his craftsmanship is indeed very good.

If Shi You heard what Jiang Hengzhou was thinking at this moment, he would definitely receive a roll of the eyes from Shi You. However, Shi You, who knew nothing about it, was eating very happily, and the atmosphere between the two was very harmonious.

In less than half an hour, all the food on the table was eaten up, and even the baby cabbage and egg vegetarian soup made by Shi You was drunk up by Jiang Hengzhou.

Shi You was lying on a chair, slowly eating sweet potatoes. Seeing Jiang Hengzhou put down his bowl and chopsticks, he said in surprise, "I've never seen you eat before. I didn't expect you to be such a big eater!"
