Sizzle...
A burst of stir-frying sounds arose.
Chen Mu's left foot continuously stepped on the bellows, blowing the flame at the bottom of the pot until it glowed fiery red.
The rich aroma was roasted out by the high temperature, rapidly filling the entire courtyard.
Using the spatula, he flicked a slice of cured meat into his mouth and chewed carefully to savor it.
"Salty and spicy in just the right amounts, the texture soft yet firm. I truly outdid myself," Chen Mu nodded in satisfaction.
Exotic Beast meat is tough; even cutting it requires an Ebony Sword.
Before stir-frying, one must apply special tenderization techniques.
"If this is just a common Exotic Beast, what about stronger ones? How would I manage that?"
"Even if culinary skills can tenderize Exotic Beast meat, cooking it properly would inevitably require hotter flames. How would I achieve that?" Chen Mu scratched his head as he looked at the red-hot blaze.
