Chapter 1334: Jade Steamed Dumplings (Thanks to the Hall Master's Order)
Xiao Jian didn't care that the steamed dumplings were still hot, so he threw the emerald green dumplings into his mouth, and after chewing a few times, he couldn't help exhaling the hot air, and said vaguely in his mouth: "Oh, this steamed dumpling tastes different from the dumplings, this skin feels very strong, it's really delicious." β
"Is it just that the skin is delicious? don't you want that stuffing, just give it to me!" Zhou Meng on the side couldn't help but joke when he heard this: "The skin is delicious, but I think the stuffing is more delicious, you see that this pork filling is very suitable for fat and thin, and it is very fragrant and not greasy at all when eaten in the mouth." And occasionally you can chew the shrimp skin, some of which are crunchy and particularly delicious. β
"I think this camellia tastes good, it doesn't taste like weeds, but it has a kind of ...... What a peculiar taste. The flavor feels a little familiar, and it goes well with pork. "Su Qingqing has already started to eat the fifth steamed dumpling.
"Are you talking about radish?" Huo Chi held the lunch box in his hand, and after sitting down next to Su Qingqing, he picked up a steamed dumpling with chopsticks and took a bite carefully.
With a "poof", the delicious gravy contained in the steamed dumplings instantly broke through the transparent dumpling skin, and these gravy overflowed the mouth and rushed to the tip of the tongue.
The fat and fresh aroma of the hind leg meat, the saltiness of the shrimp skin, and the unique taste of the camellia are mixed with the light sesame oil and the umami of light soy sauce.
The transparent dumpling skin made by mixing hot noodles and starch is not only strong and tough, but also has a very different taste from raw dumpling skin, so the crystal steamed dumplings made in this way not only have a beautiful color, but also have a unique taste.
Although there are no ready-made shrimp in hand to make crystal shrimp dumplings, the crystal steamed dumplings made from the hind leg meat of the pig dragon and the leaves of the camellia are still quite delicious.
And what's interesting is that this camelina that's taller than a person is much more tender than imagined in the mouth, Huo Chi originally thought that such a huge tall grass should taste very old, but he didn't expect that when he really ate it, it was much more tender than the freshly dug wild camellia, and the monster was really amazing.
"Oh, yes, this taste really seems to be very similar to radish, does this camellia have anything to do with radish?" Su Qingqing's curiosity made her even more curious.
What does it have to do with turnips? It doesn't matter what it does.
However, Huo Chi vaguely remembered that in the original world, wild shepherd's cabbage and radish seemed to belong to the same cruciferous family, of course, it really didn't matter if it was subdivided further. Although the two plants smell strangely similar, they really don't have much to do with each other.
And the monster called the camellia here, Huo Chi didn't know what it had to do with the radish.
Although the name of the camellia is very similar to that of the shepherd's cabbage, it is far from the real camellia in terms of morphology, and although the shape of its leaves bears some resemblance to the small wild camellia, it actually tastes more like snowweed.
The root of this camellia is also very peculiar, and its texture is somewhat similar to that of potatoes, which shows that there is no half-dime relationship between camellia and radish.
Thinking of this, Huo Chi hurriedly replied: "It shouldn't be related, it just happens to taste similar." β
"Oh, but it tastes really good, and the camelina goes well with the pork. Although Zhou Qingqing did not get a satisfactory answer, the food in her mouth made her very satisfied.
She nodded and stuffed another steamed dumpling into her mouth, and after chewing it a few times, the girl's face was filled with a happy smile: "It's so fragrant! I'll have another bowl later." β
"Speaking of which, if you have the opportunity to get radish, I will make you a steamed bun with radish and pork filling next time, and the taste is also very unique. Huo Chi and Su Qingqing chatted, and it didn't take long to sweep away the steamed dumplings in the lunch box, and when he swallowed the last bite of steamed dumplings, the familiar voice of the system sounded in his mind:

Advanced Mission: Two Meals of Unknown Monsters
Great, upgraded again!
However, to Huo Chi's slight disappointment, he used two unknown monsters in a row this time, but the system only upgraded him by two levels according to the standard, and it seems that the two monsters he ate this time were not above 100 people.
After all, the flying pigdragon is so huge that it can strangle people directly and doesn't look like ordinary monsters, so why are the energies of these two monsters just at ordinary levels?
Huo Chi was a little puzzled, but this time, Abu didn't run out to explain anything to him.
"By the way, what's the name of this dumpling?" Su Qingqing had already killed two large boxes of steamed dumplings in a row, and the desire for food in his heart was finally suppressed temporarily.
"Judging from the color, it should be called jade steamed dumplings. Huo Chi casually thought of a name for the steamed dumplings, in fact, according to the correct naming method, this kind of steamed dumplings should be called the Otherworldly Jungle version of crystal steamed dumplings.
"Jade, what is jade?" Su Qingqing looked at Huo Chi with a puzzled expression.
"Uhβthe name of an ore, Qingqing, don't you know?"
"I really don't know, this could be an ore I haven't seen before, jadeite? The name sounds good, and I don't know what this jadeite is. Su Qingqing suddenly became curious.
Fainted, it seems that there is no jadeite in this world, or this ore is not called jadeite here, how to explain this?
Huo Chi thought for a while, and had to answer vaguely: "In my hometown, jadeite is a very rare ore, its composition is relatively complex, and in general, it is a polycrystalline aggregate composed of jadeite and omphacite in general. β
"Polycrystalline aggregates, when you say that, I seem to be a little impressed. I remember that the mineral chronicles seem to say that this kind of stone is called Gidat. Unexpectedly, Su Qingqing actually said a peculiar name, Huo Chi felt that this name should be a little impressive, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
The two continued, chatting without saying a word, but as lunchtime drew to a close, the colonel had begun to order the soldiers to pack up the camp and prepare to continue on their way, while on one side of the camp, the adjutant was still interrogating the second lieutenant of the scout whom they had captured.
