章 34: Your favorite chef
"Hey guys, it's your favorite chef Scarlet here to teach you how to cook some really delicious food. I have received very many requests asking me to prepare a chicken right from the beginning because most of you don't know how to do it. I am going to do it right now so follow my steps carefully. If you lack speed and require more time to learn, I will be uploading a video of the process on my star tube channel so make sure you subscribe, like and share."
Star tube was like you tube from earth it was a place for recording and sharing videos. It was Fey that showed it to her and taught her how to use it during dinner last night. To her, the more money she could make, the better so she signed up immediately.
"First you take a chicken, pluck some of it's feathers from the neck and cut its head off right from this part."
Right now, she was grateful for the two months she lived in the country side with her grandmother otherwise she would not know how to do this. Back then she was miserable and acted as if living in the countryside was a punishment but now, she wanted to find her grandmother and give her a hug.
[Why am I feeling sorry for the chicken?]
[So much blood spurting out, I don't think I can do what she has just done.]
[You are so broke that you need to kill chickens for a living. Why don't you just become Bejeweld's private chef.]
Some gifts flew by on the screen but she was not paying attention to them.
"After draining all the blood, you put the chicken in a pot of hot water. This will make the feathers soft and easily pluckable just like this. A better way to do this would be with a machine...let's call it a defeathering machine. Unfortunately I do not have one so I have to use my hands."
[Wow, they are coming off so easily.]
[This looks so simple, why did I not think about it?]
[The movement of her hands is so fast that I can barely keep up with the plucking.]
[She is a human defeathering machine...hahaha]
"This is what a fully plucked chicken looks like, it's body is pinkish white just like this."
[Why does it have the body of a woman, is it a female chicken?"]
She noticed that question and she replied, "Yes, this is a female chicken, it's called a hen. Hens lay eggs and more chicken are born from those eggs.
After plucking, you cut this lower part right here and take out all the internal organs. Most of the internal organs like these intestines are thrown away but the gizzard and liver are good things."
She took out all the internal organs and washed the chicken three times thoroughly.
"Our chicken is now ready to be divided into eight pieces. If your family is small, you can cut bigger pieces. If your recipe needs chicken cubes or strips you can remove the bones of the chicken and cut the meat into small pieces."
She cut the chicken into pieces with a very sharp knife that it easily passed through the bones as though they were made of soft butter.
[The knife looks simple but it's so sharp.]
[How many energy stones does the knife use and what quality are they?]
[Wow, this must a high energy hunter's knife.]
Scarlet knew that this was no energy using knife, it was a kitchen knife from earth. Did these interstellar dwellers lack good eye sight?
"Tada, just like that your chicken is ready for cooking. Instead of deep frying it today we are going to prepare a grilled chicken.
I will be recording videos for every recipe that I have done so far and putting the videos on my star tube. So don't forget to subscribe, hit that like icon and share.
To prepare grilled chicken all we need is some salt, some pepper, garlic and a little bit of oil. I think more is needed to enhance the taste but I work with what I have and this is all I have for now."
[I already know that the taste is going to be amazing.]
[Ten golden castles from silver wolf!!! wow.. this is a rich man.]
She added spices to the chicken and put it over a grill that her father had put together. It amazed her to see a grill that used energy stones and not charcoal. She worried that the chicken would burn if she failed to control the heat and hoped that the timer worked perfectly.
"I am going to show you how to grill a steak. I am sure that all of are wondering what a steak is."
The food culture in the interstellar was Ninety nine percent dead. Even those who had food did not know how to prepare it so she had to explain everything that she was doing as she did it.
After explaining steak, she explained what cattle were and how they could be identified.
"It's another mutated beast whose flesh can be eaten. We are trying to tame a few of them here on the Blue star. When they reproduce, we will be able to sell beef and milk all over the empire.
The female is called a cow and it produces milk while the male is called a bull. Milk is very good and nutritious, it is especially good for growing children because it strengthens the bones and teeth."
She had asked Fey to tell her father to bring one cow and one bull outside the kitchen window. This way she could show her viewers what the animals looked like.
Just like she did with the chicken, she warned them not to go hunting any random animals that they mistook for cows or bulls.
"If you do decide to hunt for them please know that they can be aggressive and they will fight back. Also note that the meat of the young ones of all these animals cannot be eaten because they barely have any flesh."
As she was talking, she was turning the chicken over and testing it's readiness. It was golden brown in color and the grill had turned itself off she could only hope that it was ready because eating half cooked chicken on a live broadcast would embarrass her.
"The chicken is ready it seems so I am going to cut off a little bit and taste."
She placed the eight pieces of chicken on a plate and she used a knife and fork to slice a small piece from one of the chicken thighs.
As she was about to put it in her mouth, a black shadow leaped and gobbled up the other thigh very quickly.
[What in the world is that?]
