The Wine Shop of Eternity
Chapter 55 Nostalgia Awakened By Roasted Meat
‘Sweetest! If only I brought some spices, then I might be able to make a better roast.’ Jiu Shen thought inwardly with a hint of regret.
In grilling, there are many factors involved in how to maximize the taste of meat. For example, one can marinate meat using the desired seasoning mixture. Also, one can brush the meat with homemade sauces to add flavor to the meat.
But Jiu Shen did not want to waste much time, therefore, he skipped all of that process and directly threw the meat cube into the Heaven Trampling Cauldron. It's just that the end result may not be too flavorful with the lack of seasoning and preparation. Despite this, the Horned Infernal Hound's meat was still a high-grade ingredient, so the taste wouldn't be too bad even without the addition of spices.
The pierced meat cube now emitted a dense aroma as it hissed under the intense heat of Jiu Shen's black flame clump.
Although the black flame was only as big as one's thumb, it was hot enough to cook the Horned Infernal Hound's meat.
“The texture of dog meat is almost similar to that of goat meat, but the cooking process of the two is very different. . As for dog meat, it is surprisingly similar to beef in terms of flavor. It's just that dog meat is more chewy and not as tasty as beef.” Jiu Shen muttered to himself as he recalled the cooking skills and knowledge he had accumulated over the billions of years of his life.
Jiu Shen flipped the cube of skewered meat, making it produce another tangled sound. Waves of beef-like scents spread in the air as dense white smoke lingered around the Heaven Trampling Cauldron.
One side of the skewered meat cube was already light brown in color. Jiu Shen knew what the color meant, so he remained meticulous in doing each process in grilling the meat cubes.
“Master, has it been cooked?” Lu Sulan could not help but ask as the smell of cooked meat from the Horned Infernal Hound reached his nostrils.
He had never tasted such high-quality meat before, so he somewhat wanted to taste it. Even though he had already tasted the flesh of a 7th rank Emperor realm savage beast, it was still a lower realm compared to the Horned Hell Dog.
Jiu Shen did not glance at Lu Sulan and continued to look carefully at the meat cube that was pierced in the Heaven Trampling Cauldron. In an unhurried manner, he replied. “It's almost mature and will be ready soon.”
Lu Sulan involuntarily swallowed his master's words. He covered his nose and closed his eyes to free himself from the feeling of drooling, but to no avail, his stomach still let out a faint rumbling sound.
Lu Sulan slightly opened his left eye to peek at Jiu Shen. He sighed in relief after seeing his same neutral expression.
‘It was so embarrassing! Good thing sir is so focused on grilling meat.’ Lu Sulan's ears reddened as he thought to himself.
Of course, with Jiu Shen's sensitive senses, he heard his disciple's stomach complaining, but he chose to ignore it and simply immersed himself in the cooking process. It had been millions of years ago since he had last roasted meat, so he was somewhat hopeful about the results.
Jiu Shen gently poked at the meat cube that was pierced with roasted meat. He ignored the intense heat and checked the texture of the meat to see if it was ripe.
With that, Jiu Shen took out another bottle of wine from his storage earrings. This time, not Deep Sea Spring Dew, but Ables Blanc.
Ables Blanc may be much inferior compared to Deep Sea Spring Dew, but what Jiu Shen wanted to add to his sate meat was the sea taste of the Oyster Ables honey present in the Blanc Ables.
When Jiu Shen opened the bottle of Ables Blanc, the smell of the sea burst through the air. It lasted for a while before subsiding.
Jiu Shen splashed the drops of Ables Blanc on the meat cube that was stabbed casually.
He then kept the bottle of Ables Blanc and nodded his head with a satisfied expression as he glanced at the meat cube pierced in front of him.
He took them one by one and gave half of them to his student who was already drooling on the sidelines.
‘This woman can sometimes act like a little girl.’ Mumbles inwardly after seeing the ungraceful expression of her beautiful disciple.
Lu Sulan excitedly picked up the piece of meat that was pierced from his master's hand. He then held onto a single stick of skewered meat cube with one hand and dealt a light punch before he bit it.
“Munching!”
Lu Sulan's eyes widened as his tongue came into contact with the flesh. He lightly chewed on the tender and tender flesh of the Horned Infernal Hound which was still smoky hot.
“Lezat! Although the taste is somewhat worldly, but with the addition of master wine, the worldly taste is almost invisible.” Lu Sulan exclaimed as he chewed on the hot cube of skewer meat.
The meat is surprisingly capable of maintaining its freshness despite the rough cooking procedure. In addition, the sprinkling of Deep Sea Spring Dew and Ables Blanc makes the pierced meat more aromatic and flavorful. The meat has a sea scent of the Ables Oyster honey and also a natural aroma of its own flesh.
After biting off a delicacy he hadn't tasted for countless years, Jiu Shen's eyes flashed with a nostalgic look. His lips curved into a thin smile as he chewed on the meat.
“Not bad.” He said with a little emotional tone.
