Chapter 96 Lin Xins Cooking Skill (1/2)
On Sat.u.r.day morning, Lin Huang was awakened by Lin Xin because of her knocking.
”Brother, get up. It's time for breakfast!” Obviously, she sounded happy and excited.
”Yes, I know. I'm coming.” Lin Huang looked at the clock and it was only 6.30 a.m.
After taking his bath, he changed his clothes and headed downstairs.
There were a few slightly weird-shaped, over-fried eggs on the dining table and a plate of refres.h.i.+ng looking salad.
Lin Huang walked behind the dining table and looked at the bowl of porridge. The girl had learned from the messed-up eggs. At least, the color looked fine and she did not simply add ingredients in the porridge.
”Brother, hurry up. After breakfast, we have to rush to get on the first eagle ride!” Lin Xin demanded.
”Take your time. We are not riding on an eagle to get there.” Lin Huang understood why she was rus.h.i.+ng.
”How are we going to go to Baqi City then? We are departing today, aren't we?”
”You will know later when we depart.” Lin Huang slowly put a spoonful of porridge into his mouth. His facial expression changed immediately, forcing the porridge down his throat. He raised his head and looked at Lin Xin.
”Does it taste good?”
”There’s too much salt. It is unhealthy to take in so much salt.” Lin Huang tried to be gentle with his criticism.
”Since I didn't add any salt in the fried egg and salad, I added slightly more salt to the porridge.” Lin Huang glanced at the spice rack while Lin Xin was talking. Before this, there was at least three-quarters of salt left in the container placed on the semi-transparent spice rack. However, there was none left.
”You can sprinkle some salt or pour soy sauce on the fried egg and salad if you want more taste in your meal.” Lin Huang explained patiently.
To reduce the saltiness, Lin Huang took a spoonful of green salad.
As he ate the spoonful of salad, Lin Huang felt like his skull was about to crack. He forced himself to swallow and took a serviette to wipe away his tears.
”Xin Er, how much mustard did you add to the salad?” Lin Huang’s tongue was numb.
”I remember you telling me that some of the vegetables must be soaked to taste good. I added the whole bottle of mustard oil into the bowl and soaked the vegetables. I coat the vegetables and mustard oil well from top to bottom by wearing gloves. I spent a lot of time preparing this!” Lin Xin said proudly.
”No wonder the color of the vegetables looks so appealing. It has been coated with mustard…” Lin Huang thought.
”Xin Er, I am stuffed. Enjoy your breakfast. I will wash the plates later.” Lin Huang walked towards the sofa.
”Brother, you have not touched the fried egg.” Lin Xin was upset.
”You can eat it.” Lin Huang sat on the sofa and read the news.
Lin Xin ate all the dishes – the salty porridge, the mustard-soaked salad and even the fried-egg. She gobbled them all!
