1016 A Load on Nether King Er Has Mind (1/2)
In the kitchen of Immortal Chef Little Store, Bu Fang grabbed the long neck of the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck.
The duck continuously fumed spirit energy and immortal energy as it quacked.
For the True Immortal Realm test, the system asked Bu Fang to cook Roast Duck, but it didn't provide him with a recipe. What he had was just a cooking ingredient.
Hence, Bu Fang had to cook the duck in his own way.
Luckily, in Bu Fang's previous life, he had enjoyed all kinds of dishes, so he had studied roast duck too.
Duck is one of the most popular fowls. Even in his previous life, there were so many ways to cook duck—duck cooked with beer, duck cooked with ginger, duck stewed with herbs, and so on.
However, the most famous duck dish was Roast Duck. It was really famous around the world.
Cooking Roast Duck was different from eating Roast Duck, though.
Bu Fang didn't start to cook right away. As one of his hands held the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck by its neck, his other hand was placed on his back. He stood there, sinking in his thoughts.
He had to recall the methods to process the duck and how to roast it.
It was really complicated to cook Roast Duck. A minor mistake could change the duck's taste significantly.
In his previous life, he could find Roast Duck in any place. However, they didn't taste the same.
With different cooking methods, heat controls, and changes in recipes, the Roast Duck would have different tastes.
After a long while…
Bu Fang moved.
The Seven-colored Sky Mending Sky quacked one more time. Its hoarse voice echoed, thick spirit energy and immortal energy fuming out of its beak.
His mind flickered, and the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife appeared in his grip with dazzling golden light. As it spun in his hand, it created wind blades swishing around.
In order to cook Roast Duck, he must process the duck first.
Although the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck was an immortal ingredient, it was still a duck.
Grabbing the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck, Bu Fang's eyes became sharper. An intimidating aura arose from him, making it seem like an overlord was hovering behind him.
The Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck froze. It didn't even dare to wiggle.
A moment later, a jet of blade light slashed over. Tens of thousands of lights gathered into a blade, the Overlord's first blade.
Swish.
Instantly, it cut the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck's throat.
Bu Fang had used the three-pipe cutting method, which was the common and most effective way to deal with ducks as it could keep the body intact.
The three-pipe cutting method's first step was at the throat of the fowl. The knife would cut through the artery, meridian, and even cut off the windpipe and gullet.
Pufft.
The Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck didn't wiggle anymore.
Bu Fang then took out a basin, catching the duck's gushing blood out of its throat.
The Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck was worthy of being an immortal ingredient. Even its blood could fume immortal energy.
The duck's blood could be processed and become a delicious side dish to have with hotpot. Its blood curd would feel soft and smooth.
After killing the duck, of course, he needed to deal with its feathers.
Gurgle. Gurgle.
Bu Fang put the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck into a pot of boiling Heavenly Mountain Spirit Spring Water and blanched it for a while, which would soften the duck's feathers. After that, he could pluck them out.
Boiling and plucking the feathers were actually part of the process, but to Bu Fang, it wasn't a big deal.
Rattle! Rattle!
When he fished the steaming Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck from the boiling water, hot water dripped from it.
Bu Fang emitted true energy to cover both of his hands. Then, his eyes focused as he casually grabbed the duck by its neck.
A moment later, he began to pull, plucking the feathers out of its body.
Throwing a handful of feathers, Bu Fang plucked the duck again.
After doing this several times, the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck had only several down left. Meticulously, Bu Fang also plucked the down.
Seeing the duck's smooth and radiant skin without any feather or down left, he finished his plucking process.
Next was the gutting process.
This step was very important because the Roast Duck needed to keep the integrity of its body. If the duck had a hole on the skin, it was already wasted.
Bu Fang raised the duck's wings as he carefully made a hole using the Dragon Bone Kitchen Knife. Then, he took out the internal organs.
This step wasn't really hard. Since he had opened the duck right under its wing, the skin of the duck looked perfect with no damage.
When taking out internal organs, it should be done fast. Since Bu Fang worked really fast, he had done it effortlessly and flawlessly.
Then, he began to clean the duck.
Without the feathers, the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck didn't look much different from the ordinary ducks. Of course, its meat was incomparable.
With thick immortal energy that the meat absorbed every day, its texture was so good, which was beyond one's imagination.
It was even better than Eighty's meat.
Although Eighty was considered an immortal ingredient, it hadn't reached the Seven-colored Sky Mending Duck's level yet.
At this moment, Bu Fang was thinking if he should ask the system to have one more duck, so he could breed it in his farmland.
Anyway, he could ask later. His priority right now was to cook Roast Duck.
It took Bu Fang a while to clean the duck. After putting it aside, he started to prepare the other ingredients.
He summoned the Black Turtle Constellation Wok, then added the syrup he took from the system into it.
Parting his lips, a gold lotus flame flew out, going underneath the Black Turtle Constellation Wok.
It was the Golden Lotus Demonic Flame. After Bu Fang had swallowed the immortal flame, he could totally control it now.
Although Bu Fang's control of the Golden Lotus Demonic Flame hadn't reached the level he used to have with the Heaven and Earth Obsidian Flame, which was like an extension of his arms, it wasn't a problem just to heat up some syrup.
No matter what, it was an immortal flame with extreme heat.
If he used the Heaven and Earth Obsidian Flame to boil the syrup, it would take a long time. But with this immortal flame, it boiled fast.
No wonder every Immortal Chef wanted to have a good immortal flame. Good or bad, it was crucial to the chef.
Moreover, the first fifty flames of the immortal flame ranking were extraordinary.
