Chapter 763 - Remains From The Former Hosts (1/2)

Speaking of the dishes ordered by Liu Zhang, none of them were complicated except the Thousand Thread Mantou. Only that dish had a rather complicated cooking method.

“He’s really good at eating,” Yuan Zhou received the order and said secretly in his heart.

That’s right. Yuan Zhou easily recognized the intentions of Liu Zhang ordering this dish. Yet, he didn’t have other thoughts, but just began to work on it.

“Let me knead dough first before doing anything else.” He immediately figured out the optimal arrangement and then got started.

Mantou had a very long history. In the history of China, there were quite a lot of records about it. For example, Mantou had stuffing inside at the very beginning while that changed gradually with the development of the society.

People called those kinds of wheaten food products without stuffing inside as Mantou and those with stuffing inside as Steamed Bun.

What Liu Zhang ordered was naturally Mantou without stuffing inside, more specifically, a kind of complicated Mantou that appeared later.

The flour used for Thousand Thread Mantou was rather different from other kinds of flour.

As the Thousand Thread Mantou was slightly yellow rather than pure white, Yuan Zhou directly used the stone-ground flour, which differed from the flour used to make Clear Broth Noodle Soup and the wrappings of the Soup Dumplings.

“Zhi Ya Zhi Ya.” Yuan Zhou pushed the stone mill at a uniform speed with one hand while processing other ingredients with the other hand.

It wasn’t a big thing for Yuan Zhou. After all, there were more and more customers nowadays and Yuan Zhou had to do different things with both of his hands.

Fortunately, Yuan Zhou didn’t need to do anything with his left hand but push the stone mill at a uniform speed, which didn’t require much skill and thus didn’t affect his right hand doing other things.

“It really feels magical to see Boss Yuan work with his both hands doing different things at the same time,” Master Cheng sighed with emotion and said.

Speaking of which, he could also use his two hands at the same time. Sometimes, he also cooked two different dishes at the same time when he was busy. However, one of them had to be quick-frying while the other had to be slow cooking.

As for doing two different things at the same time with two hands like Yuan Zhou, he indicated that he wasn’t capable.

“It’s similar to the heroine who draws a circle with her left hand and draws a square with her right hand on the TV series,” a customer at the side also nodded his head and said.

“It’s actually freshly ground flour. I seem to have the luck to get something nice to eat.” Liu Zhang was quite happy to see Yuan Zhou do so and was looking forward to tasting his craftsmanship.

“Even so, Boss Yuan’s dishes were still so delicious. It seems there’s no difference between using the left hand and using the right hand,” one of the customers suddenly said.

“No difference? Alright. If you can eat up a bowl of Egg Fried Rice with your left hand today, I will treat you to a meal.” Master Cheng turned to look at the person who had talked just now and said casually.

“Whatever I want?” The person who spoke just now was a girl who had pretty and smooth short hair. On hearing Master Cheng’s words, she got a shine in her eyes and said immediately.

“Of course. Whatever you want, as long as you can eat it up.” Master Cheng nodded his head affirmatively.

“Good. Look carefully! Though I’m not left-handed, I can use a spoon when I eat Egg Fried Rice.” The girl smiled slyly and took up the spoon on the table with her left hand.

“You just try.” Master Cheng said with complete confidence.

“Then thank you in advance for your kindness. Boss Yuan has so many dishes that I want to try in the restaurant,” the girl said smilingly.

The plain-looking girl suddenly became mischievous and cute because of the smile.

“You are welcome. Only after you succeed can you get it.” Master Cheng nodded his head.

The girl made a gesture of “Okay” and then, she took up the spoon and began to eat.

Master Cheng wasn’t anxious to watch Yuan Zhou anymore now. Instead, he turned to watch the girl who was using her left hand to eat. Even the customers at the side couldn’t help turning to watch her eat and discussing in a low voice.

“Do you think she can make it?”

“I don’t think so. I tried before, but I couldn’t even pick any dish with my left hand using chopsticks.”

“But she is using the spoon. It should be easier to use a spoon.”

“That’s not for sure. I can write with my left hand, although I write slowly.”
