“Make it ourselves?
Well, we could give it a try.” Furina was very interested in Elysia’s proposal.
Prior to this, he had always had dedicated chefs, and it was basically never his turn to cook.
If he could try making it with his own hands today, it would indeed be a nice experience.
Seeing that Furina was somewhat tempted, Elysia decided to strike while the iron was hot.
“Let’s make dumplings today!
You should know that in Liyue, they are generally eaten during the Lantern Rite, oh ♪” “It sounds pretty good…
Then tonight we’ll go make dumplings together.” Furina knew about Liyue’s Lantern Rite.
That was Liyue’s most important festival of the year.
Being able to eat such a special food during this kind of festival, it must be some extraordinary delicacy.
After finishing their discussion, the two lay down on the sofa to rest for a while.
Feeling that they had recovered enough, they walked hand in hand toward the kitchen.
On the way, they happened to meet Clorinde, so they invited him to go along.
Seeing that his own deity was going to try cooking and had even invited him, Clorinde was too embarrassed to refuse.
Coupled with the fact that he currently didn’t have anything else to do, he agreed to go along, turning the duo into a three-person team.
Elysia originally wanted to invite Neuvillette to join as well, but after Clorinde informed her that Neuvillette still had official business to handle, she had no choice but to let the matter drop.
“Mr.
Neuvillette really is a busy person ♪” After arriving at the kitchen, the three found the head chef here, who was also Furina’s current exclusive chef, Miss Camille.
“Good evening, Lord Furina, Miss Clorinde, and this unknown beautiful lady.
May I ask if you came to the kitchen because you are hungry?
It’s still early, and dinner hasn’t been prepared yet.” “No, Miss Camille.
As a deity, although I have tasted countless delicacies in the eyes of mortals, I have never tried making them myself.” Furina then introduced her to Camille.
“This is Elysia, my attendant.
She happens to know how to cook Liyue dishes, so today we are just here to borrow the kitchen.” “So it’s Lord Attendant!
I didn’t expect you to know how to cook Liyue dishes.
I’ve long heard that Liyue is the country with the most delicacies among The Seven Nations.
I’ve always wanted to witness it.
Whatever ingredients you need, I’ll go prepare them for you right away.
Just letting me watch from the side will be fine.” Hearing the purpose of Furina and the others, Camille was extremely excited.
For a chef, there is a strong pursuit of learning how to make more delicacies.
And as Liyue, the country with the richest variety of food, Camille had wanted to go there long ago.
It’s just that he was only an ordinary person without a Vision, and facing monsters in the wild was still too dangerous.
Coupled with the fact that he had already become the head chef of Palais Mermonia and had no more time, he could only extinguish his thoughts.
But now, someone who knew how to cook Liyue dishes had suddenly appeared, so one could imagine how happy he was.
Regarding Camille’s request, Elysia naturally had no objection.
After all, this wasn’t anything particularly important that needed to be kept secret, and besides, Elysia rarely refused requests from girls.
Elysia asked for the necessary ingredients, poured a catty of Flour into a basin, and then added salt, starch, and egg whites.
“Miss Elysia, what is the proportion of these ingredients?” Camille asked Elysia.
“Proportions?
Elysia remembers that ‘appropriate amount’ is fine ♪” “Huh?” “Miss Camille, it’s just an appropriate amount, oh.
To make Liyue dishes well, one must rely on experience, and everyone has their own different methods and tastes for the same dish.
All these foods are the precipitation of Liyue’s rich history ♪” Hearing Elysia’s words, Camille half-understood.
“Miss Clorinde, I heard your swordsmanship is amazing.
Can you help Elysia chop this meat into minced meat ♪” “Leave it to me.” Although Clorinde wasn’t clear what good swordsmanship had to do with chopping minced meat, Clorinde still accepted the task assigned by Elysia, picked up a kitchen knife, and fiercely chopped into the pork belly.
Seeing that Clorinde had started working, Elysia’s gaze turned to Furina.
At this time, Furina was also somewhat curious about what his task was, and was looking at Elysia with expectant eyes.
“Fu-fu, give Elysia some water ♪” “Huh?” Just as Furina was puzzled by Elysia’s request, a ball of clear water appeared out of thin air above the Flour and dropped onto it.
“Fu-fu, you’re amazing ♪” Furina was dumbfounded and didn’t yet know what had happened, when suddenly his gaze caught Elysia winking at him, and he instantly understood her meaning.
“Ah hahaha, just this little thing?
It’s way too simple for me, the Hydro Archon.” “But Fu-fu, there’s a bit too much water, eh ♪” “Can you blame me?
As the Hydro Archon, it’s completely normal for the water element to be a bit abundant.” Well, actually this was Elysia’s own problem.
She wasn’t yet that adept at the power of the Hydro Archon’s attendant, and accidentally added too much.
“It’s fine, Elysia just needs to add a bit more Flour ♪” Just like that, when there was too much water she added Flour, and when there was too much Flour she added water, finally getting the proportions right, except the weight of the Flour had reached a catty and a half.
Afterwards, Elysia told Furina to start kneading the dough.
Furina learned very earnestly, and before long, he cast Elysia aside and started tinkering on his own.
Seeing that there was nothing to do, Elysia looked over at Clorinde’s side and found that he had successfully finished chopping the minced meat.
“As expected of Clorinde, you’re so amazing ♪” “This is nothing remarkable to me.” Elysia began to season the minced meat, while Camille observed carefully from behind, holding a small notebook and jotting things down from time to time.
This time Camille didn’t ask about the proportion of seasonings; for a culinary expert like him, he naturally had his own considerations in mind regarding how much seasoning to add.
‘Perhaps this is what Miss Elysia meant by an appropriate amount.’ After Elysia finished processing the minced meat, she turned her gaze back to Furina’s side, only to see that Furina was still struggling against the Flour, and his originally exquisite little face was stained with flying Flour.
“Pfft, Fu-fu, you’re almost turning into a big tabby cat.
Come over quickly and let Elysia take a look ♪” As soon as she finished speaking, she hugged towards Furina.
“What are you doing?
I’m working right now.” After the two of them playfully wrestled for a bit as if no one else was around, Elysia took the dough from Furina’s hands and kneaded it.
Feeling that it was about ready, Elysia pulled out a rolling pin made of pink crystal and began rolling out dumpling wrappers.
The three watched as Elysia pinched off a small ball from the kneaded Flour, spun it once under the rolling pin, and it turned into a round dumpling wrapper.
After making a few dumpling wrappers, Elysia began teaching the three how to wrap dumplings.
As a chef, Camille had a certain foundation, and Clorinde, as a swordsmanship master, picked up manual tasks very quickly, soon wrapping a beautiful dumpling.
But this made Furina, who was an ordinary person, appear somewhat clumsy.
He hid the dumpling he had wrapped behind his back, and then muttered some excuses about it being his first time, or how a deity’s aesthetic differs from mortals, causing Elysia to giggle on the side.
