Chapter 24:
"Be more reserved. The powerful ones are still coming.”
What Ye Jiang said was right. The best part was yet to come. What he had just done was only the first and second steps of making spicy crayfish. They were also the easiest two steps in making spicy crayfish.
The most important thing was the taste. If there was a slight mistake, the spicy crayfish would not be delicious enough.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Ye Jiang added a suitable amount of vegetable oil into the pot. Then, he placed the garlic and ginger into the pot, adjusted the heat, and stir-fried them over medium heat.
In no time, the fragrance of garlic and ginger was stir-fried. When Ye Jiang smelled the fragrance, he quickly put the crayfish into the pot, added star anise and cassia, stir-fried it, and then added an appropriate amount of water into the pot.
"Not bad, not bad at all!"
Beside him, Wu Tiancheng nodded in praise. Although Ye Jiang's cooking method followed the steps of the authentic spicy crayfish, Wu Tiancheng noticed some details.
For example, adding star anise and Cassia and stir-frying it was to add water so that the star anise and Cassia could be better seasoned.
There were also times when the control of the heat could not always be high, low, or medium. In the process of cooking spicy crayfish, the heat needed to be adjusted at any time.
Ordinary chefs wouldn't care about this, because in their opinion, even if they didn't pay attention to this, the spicy crayfish they made wouldn't be too bad.
As a result, many chefs had neglected this point over time.
Ye Jiang turned the fire on and said,""Wait three minutes!"
"Not bad, Little Ye!" Wu Tiancheng praised.”
"I'm sorry!" Ye Jiang said humbly.
"I'm looking forward to it!"
"It looks like it should be very delicious!"
"I'm drooling. I just hope it can be done quickly.”
"I'm looking forward to it!"
The girls looked at the crayfish in the pot with anticipation. They could not wait for the crayfish to be ready so that they could taste it.
Looking at their expressions, Ye Jiang smiled and said,""Don't expect too much. I'm not sure how it tastes either. After all, it's been a long time since I've made it!”
Ye Jiang couldn't say that it was his first time doing it. If that happened, everyone would think that he was just pretending. Instead, if he said that he hadn't done it for a long time, everyone would believe him.
Because everyone thought that Ye Jiang used to be a chef, but later on, he became a delivery man, so he hadn't cooked spicy crayfish for a long time. This was very normal.
On the side, Zhang Fangwei looked at Ye Jiang without saying a word. Now, he was sure that Ye Jiang used to be a chef. Even if he wasn't a master, at least Ye Jiang used to be a chef.
Just this alone was enough reason for him to invite Ye Jiang to work in his shop.
Next, he only needed to confirm Ye Jiang's culinary skills and poach him over. He also needed to decide how much he would pay Ye Jiang.
Soon, the water boiled for three minutes. Ye Jiang poured in the red chili, refined salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and other seasonings that he had prepared in advance. Then, he covered the pot and let it simmer for a while.
A moment later, Ye Jiang added a suitable amount of cooking wine into the pot, added half of the water content of the crayfish, covered the lid again, and turned the fire to medium.
After doing all this, Ye Jiang looked at everyone and said,""After ten minutes, when the water is boiled into a thick sauce, it can be served.”
"To be honest, it feels so troublesome!”
"Trouble? Is this why you love to eat but don't want to cook?”
"I don't know how to make it. Otherwise, I would definitely make it myself at home.”
"Ye Jiang, why don't you teach me how to cook?”
"Teach me too!"
"I want to learn too!"
"Perfect Prince Charming!"
“…………”
Xu Nuo casually said that it was troublesome and was immediately refuted. Xue Shanshan and the other girls looked at Ye Jiang with infatuation.
Xue Shanshan was the first to ask Ye Jiang to teach her how to make spicy crayfish. Immediately, the other four girls reacted and expressed that they wanted Ye Jiang to teach them.
Xue Shanshan asked Ye Jiang to teach her purely because she wanted to eat. However, it was different for the other girl. In their opinion, if Ye Jiang agreed to teach them, they would have some time alone. When they were alone, they would have the opportunity to develop their relationship. Perhaps they could use this opportunity to make Ye Jiang their boyfriend.
"Uh, forget it!"
Looking at the enthusiastic girls, Ye Jiang shook his head and said,"I don't have time to teach you. I'm a hardworking person. I have to deliver many takeouts every day.”
"Tsk!"
At the side, Zhang Fangwei snorted and looked at Ye Jiang with disdain. He said,"I don't know who did it a few days ago, but in order to meet a female netizen, he didn't send a single order for the entire afternoon.”
"Bullsh * t!"
Ye Jiang glared at Zhang Fangwei and said,""I'm just going to verify what the internet says. I want to see if the netizens are as scary as they say. What do you know?”
"Haha!"
Zhang Fangwei chuckled and looked like he believed him, but he did not continue.
After all, if he continued, Ye Jiang might really get angry.
However, Zhang Fangwei was quite envious of Ye Jiang. He was envious of his handsome face. He could ask girls out however he wanted, and most of the time, it was the girls who took the initiative.
At the same time, the way Zhang Fangwei looked at Xue Shanshan and the others changed. In his opinion, these girls were also going to be in trouble. They wouldn't be able to escape Ye Jiang's demonic claws.
However, Zhang Fangwei did not know that the current Ye Jiang was no longer the Ye Jiang in his memories. In Ye Jiang's heart, the world was big, and delivery was the most important thing.
After chatting for a while, ten minutes passed by very quickly. The water in the pot had already turned into thick juice. Ye Jiang looked at it and said,"Almost there!"
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Ye Jiang opened the lid. Immediately, a fragrance assailed their noses.

(I didn't want to be this late, but I had no choice. I worked overtime until ten o'clock at the company. I came back for supper and took a shower. Then, I wrote this chapter until now. Sorry, there's still one more chapter.) 0
