Transmigrating from a zombie world to become the mecha kings wife-Chapter 424: Date cake, Omurice and dumplings
Chapter 424: Date cake, Omurice and dumplings
Ignorant of all the trending topics she had surfaced in thanks to Esong’s claim and threatening Ramslin, Scarlet went on with her cooking nonchalantly.
"So, I am going to start by soaking two cups of dates in one and a half cups of hot milk. You can use one cup of hot milk if you wish, the choice is yours. These should soak for thirty minutes."
She set those aside and brought the ones she had soaked while they were talking about Rodney’s son.
"These, I soaked already so I will be using them instead. Now, the soaked dates and milk go into a blender."
She turned two blenders on at the same time, one for brown dates and one for pink.
"Blend this until it turns thick and makes a paste. This paste goes into a glass bowl from the blender and into it, I am adding vegetable oil one hundred ninety millimetres or three and a quarter cups.
I know that some of you will ask so I will answer before you do, other types of oil can be used.
But, olive oil can be overwhelming, coconut oil might be a better substitute."
She picked up a nutrient solution bottle from Nutri, "I am adding Nitri’s vanilla solution, a quarter cup or sixty millimetres." There was no difference between it and yoghurt except for the nutrient solution being more filling when it hit the stomach.
"Blend this until it’s smooth, it must be consistent." She emphasized.
She blended the brown dates first and then the pink ones, using a hand blender. Each cake had it’s own cooking utensils cutting out the need to wash something off before using it elsewhere.
"I can help." Ramslin said from the side.
"First learn, then you can help." She answered. She looked at the camera, smiled and said, "Okay, up next we have our wheat flour.
It needs to go through a manual sieve, I am using two cups of wheat flour, baking powder one tea spoon, baking soda half a tea spoon, salt a pinch and I start sieving."
She looked up and said, "Pretty easy, right? It’s just like riding a bicycle. I know you think so too. Anyway, the next step you can all guess, blend, mix and combine well."
Ramslin had somehow come closer again, and his silly head was so close to the bowl. She pointed the rolling blender at his face and he pushed himself away.
[Aww, our Ramslin is just trying to be helpful. Please let him cook.]
[As someone who has tried to ride a bicycle and failed I would like to tell chef Scarlet that its not as easy as she thinks.]
[I will only taste the cake if Ramslin touches it.]
[HAHA have you seen general Esong’s posts, the mecha king who has not posted anything for two years is going wild today.]
[I saw, the mecha king is quite jealous and possessive. It’s cute!!!!!!!!!]
The posts they spoke of were trending and everyone was discussing them online.
Handsome General E.W: [Get that thing out of my kitchen and away from my wife.]
Handsome General E.W: [My wife let’s me cook with her even when I am just learning.]
Handsome General E.W: [My wife thinks I am too handsome, what should I do? ]
Handsome General E.W: [My wife sings me lullabies before bed every night, it’s why my skin is so smooth.]
Handsome General E.W: [I have a date with my wife tonight!!! Shout out @General Patterson, I miss you my friend.]
Nobody was laughing more than Esong’s friends at his crazy posting.
"You are so petty brother. Did you have to tag general Patterson?" Markay asked him.
With fire in his eyes, Esong replied, "He dares to have a picture of my wife in his uniform pocket!!! My wife." He emphasized the words, "My wife."
"We know that she is your wife, tone it down." Captain Jacks mumbled.
On the screen, Scarlet had added half a cup of milk, blended the mixture, added half a cup of walnuts and small handful of fresh chopped dates.
After mixing it all together by hand, it went into a baking loaf pan and then an oven.
"While the cakes bake, I will teach you something else, an omelet with rice AKA, Omurice." She said sonorously and shook her shoulders.
"So, this is a fifteen minute dish, it’s easy to prepare and extremely tasty. It starts with a pan and some oil. I already have chopped ingredients and cooked rice."
She put the pan on heat, added oil, green onions, white onions and fried them.
"Just fry until the fragrance rises to your nose then add tiny chopped carrots, green peas that have already been boiled, you can add mushrooms. Cook this for three minutes and your rice, some soy sauce and ketchup."
She mixed it as it cooked, removed and put in a bowl then she pressed down. Omurice used to be one of her favourite things to eat as a child.
Cooking it now, evoked beautiful memories from her mind of her grandparents.
"Erm, I have three eggs which I am going to crack and add a little salt, white pepper and a little water.
The next part is really important, the frying of the eggs.
It must be done on low to medium heat, be careful so that the eggs are not scrambled and they should not stick to the pan.
You see these ages, be careful with them because they are used to fold the omelet.
So, a small cheat in this case is that if you cannot fold the omelet, just leave it as it is, flat like a fried egg and spread it over the rice."
She explained as articulately as she could the process of preparing the omelette. After it was finished she placed it on top of the fried rice.
She got a knife, sliced through the omelet and poured some ketchup neatly over it.
"Tada, Omurice ready to eat." She announced.
She got two spoons and reluctantly handed one to Ramslin.
"I am only doing this because you are a guest." She reminded him.
"Thank you, friend chef Scarlet." He said loudly.
She dug into the omurice before he did. It was good, no, better than she even remembered. The quality of eggs here ws better than the ones on earth.
"So good, oh its so good." Ramslin made noise as he ate like a glutton stuffing his mouth with one spoon after another.
[Our idol has lost his image.]
[Actor Ramslin or piggy Ramslin?]
[OMURICE is the best thing you have ever cooked. I approve and give you two space ships.]
[Has general Esong eaten omurice before his love rival?]
[People calling Ramslin general Esong’s love rival when he already won because he is the chef’s legal husband is stupid. Do you even recall that they have a child already?]
[Make another omurice, I command you!!!]
Scarlet looked at the time, she had one hour left on the clock.
"Alright, without wasting time let’s make dumplings, our last recipe for the day. I am going to teach you how to prepare, pork, chicken and vegetable dumplings.
I hope you all stick with me for another hour."
