Chapter 341: Chapter 342: This Is How You Eat Braised Pork!

Don’t be polite with him, this phrase has two meanings. I’m not polite with you, and you shouldn’t be polite with me either. If there’s anything you need, just say it, and I’ll definitely help if I can.

Second Uncle has a military background, so Wang Fan fully understands the meaning behind their words.

As soon as Commander Wu gave the order, the soldiers who were sitting upright immediately activated eating mode.

Their hands holding chopsticks moved so fast they almost left afterimages, and everyone had only one target—braised pork!

Although the tiger-skin green peppers and tiger-skin eggs were also very tempting, for them right now, nothing was more enticing than that juicy, succulent braised pork.

Fang Bin used to love mixing his food, mashing the braised pork and tiger-skin peppers with a spoon and mixing it thoroughly with rice, then stuffing a big spoonful into his mouth, an indescribable satisfaction.

But now he doesn’t want to eat like this, at least not at the moment.

A year of longing has made him want nothing more than to stuff that piece of meat into his mouth, to ease the pain of homesickness.

He picked up a shorter piece of braised pork, its red-brown hue and marbled texture made him drool involuntarily.

But now, he didn’t have to hold back.

"Aww..."

A big piece of braised pork disappeared into his mouth in an instant, the rich savory flavor surged through his taste buds, making his eyes involuntarily squint.

A slight bite, and the thick piece of meat was easily cut through, so tender it practically melted in his mouth.

After frying, the meat had been boiled over high heat and then simmered, leaving no excess fat, just a mouthful of lingering fragrance with no greasy feeling.

The lean meat portion was extraordinarily tender, you could distinctly feel the muscle fibers, yet a gentle chew and it melted completely in the mouth.

A few chews and the umami and aroma of the meat spread in his mouth, making him blissfully confused by the deliciousness.

The taste was impeccable too, a single bite and you could distinctly tell it was pork, the aroma filled his mouth, imbued with a lightly seasoned taste where no element was overpowering, harmoniously blending to make the pork flavor the standout feature.

There was also a unique crisp aroma, making the pork refreshing rather than greasy, adding a delightful taste.

As something he ate since childhood, Fang Bin compared the taste and texture of this piece of meat with those of his memory, and in his mind, he heard a song: "Invincibility is so, so lonely..."

Jiang Ping had also eaten a piece, finding the perfect taste and texture unbelievable: "Did you grow up eating this? Is this a specialty of your hometown?"

Fang Bin replied with great pride, "That’s right, braised pork is the ultimate in meat cuisine where we’re from, nothing can compare with braised pork and rice, not even a job offer."

"Not even a job offer?"

Jiang Ping knew about Lu Dong, which was famous nationwide for its competitive job market, although he knew it was a joke, it was enough to demonstrate the status of this braised pork.

"Hurry up and eat, no more chatting, you might even manage a second helping if you finish quickly."

Chen Baoguo and the other team leaders were also seated on the ground, sitting on a red-blue striped plastic mat.

Commander Wu praised as he picked up a thick slice of braised pork, "Captain Chen is usually so modest, this is way better than you said."

Wang Jun also chimed in with a smile, "I’m quite good in the city, but this braised pork is definitely one of the best nationwide."

Chen Baoguo said, "It’s a bit early to compliment now, you’ll know how masterful Wang’s cooking is once you taste it."

Commander Wu nodded, bringing the braised pork to his lips, the rich aroma compelled him to take a bite.

The lean and fatty meats were easily bitten through, the collagen-rich pig skin, simmered to tenderness, was surprisingly connected like silk.

Commander Wu found it amusing, pulling it apart, until the tender pig skin snapped, showing resilience yet melting softly in the mouth.

Others laughed seeing him do this, but since they were far from the locals’ homes, it was of no concern, otherwise, they might have startled a few awake with laughter.

"Interesting, interesting, hahaha, Wang, this pork is amazing, forget the taste, the texture alone is unrivaled, fatty but not greasy, lean but not dry, and full of robust aroma."

"The flavor is just as unbeatable, full of savory seasoning, a hint of sweet, salty soy sauce and a whisper of spice, all blending so well yet so subtly enhancing the pork flavor, one word—awesome."

The deputy commander just finished a piece of pork when he eagerly picked up a tiger-skin pepper next.

The outer layer bore wrinkles like tiger skin gleaming with a sheen of oil, a faint hint of smokiness among the fresh aroma had long made him salivate.

With a bite, the crispness brought fresh tenderness, within which was a meaty texture that was just irresistible.

A slight chew and juices burst from the pepper flesh, offering a unique crisp and spicy combination, mingled with the rich pork aroma.

The tip of his tongue felt a hint of spiciness, followed by rich pork fragrance and the sweetness of the pepper, all the flavors interwoven in layers, making the tongue flip with delight.

The distinctive spicy aroma spread endlessly in the mouth, each bite uniquely stimulating.

"Stop with the pork, try this pepper, it’s even better than the meat!"

The deputy commander was full of praise, enthusiastically recommending to Commander Wu and the others: "Invincible! Absolutely refreshing!"

Fang Bin, not far from where Commander Wu and the others were, couldn’t help but curl his lips hearing their conversation. If you’re so thrilled with these dishes, what would happen if you tasted the final form of this braised pork, you might just jump for joy?

With a soft chuckle, he said to Jiang Ping, "Come, learn from me."

While speaking, he put two large pieces of meat into his bowl, then added two braised eggs and a tiger-skin pepper, spooning two generous scoops of the sauce over the meat and rice before mixing it all together with a spoon.

Jiang Ping followed suit, and soon everyone around them did the same, the squad leader included.

Fang Bin diced the meat, eggs, and peppers, mixing them thoroughly with the rice, then scooped a big spoonful with all the ingredients mixed together.

"This mouthful, I, Fang Bin, am willing to call it—The Bite of the Gods!"

"Aww..."
