Chapter 1069: Chapter 439: Is There Also a Sweet vs. Savory Debate in Sticky Rice Cake Circles? One Sentence Leaves Both Sides Speechless [Monthly Ticket 1000 Bonus]
"Xu Bao, is it ready yet?"
Lin Xu removed the lighting equipment and tripod, and just as he was about to start wrapping the sticky rice cakes, Shen Jiayue peeked into the kitchen.
Smelling the delightful red bean paste aroma, she instinctively sniffed the air.
"Just finished the filling."
Lin Xu scooped a little of the slightly hot red bean paste and fed it to Shen Baobao.
As the bean paste entered her mouth, the beauty who had just lost her game with no resistance instantly widened her eyes, her face full of surprise:
"Wow, this is too delicious!"
The red bean paste was smooth and moist, melting the sweet taste in the mouth. Its sandy texture flowed in the mouth like fine sand in a desert.
The sensation was really amazing.
It naturally lifted her mood.
Lin Xu smiled and said:
"There’s something even tastier coming up."
"What tasty thing? Can I try it?"
Seeing her look of anticipation, Lin Xu lifted the damp cloth beside him, kneaded the still warm glutinous rice paste a couple of times, then pinched a small piece, rolled it into a ball on the board, and flattened it into a patty.
Then he took a spoonful of red bean paste from beside him and placed it in the middle, wrapping it with the patty.
After wrapping it, he poured some toasted sesame seeds onto a plate and rolled the wrapped sticky rice ball through them.
After it was covered in sesame seeds, he gently rolled it out with a rolling pin to make a snow cake-shaped sticky rice pancake, then handed it over with kitchen paper to the increasingly surprised Shen Jiayue.
"The dough is ready, give it a try."
"It looks so magical..."
The starry-eyed darling took a big bite without being polite and immediately exclaimed:
"Wow, this is so delicious, the sesame is crispy, the glutinous rice is fragrant, soft, and smooth, and the bean paste inside is both aromatic and delicious... super tasty, luckily I lost this round, otherwise I wouldn’t have had such a yummy dessert."
Lin Xu smiled and said:
"The finished product later will taste even better."
This was just using steamed glutinous rice to wrap a little red bean paste. For it to taste even better, it should be pan-fried with lard to bring out the fragrance and fry the surface of the sticky rice cake to a golden brown color.
Such sticky rice cake, crispy on the outside and sweet with bean paste inside, is much better than eating it directly.
"Even tastier than this?"
Shen Jiayue looked expectant, and she finished the remaining sticky rice cake in a few bites, the sensation of the two textures intertwining in her mouth was truly wonderful.
She swallowed the deliciousness in her mouth and immediately jumped into Lin Xu’s arms, kissing him fervently:
"Thank you, Xu Bao, for always making me delicious food. I’ll forever be a child who never grows up; you have to spoil me for a lifetime."
"Okay... but can you get off me first?"
At the moment, this girl had both arms around Lin Xu’s neck and both legs clinging tightly to his legs like climbing a utility pole, leaving Lin Xu in an awkward position.
His hands were all oily, otherwise, he’d definitely pin her against the wall and kiss her right back.
Being on the defensive isn’t our unit’s fighting style; grab every opportunity to make the first move, even if there’s no fight in sight...
Just as he was thinking, Shen Baobao kissed him again.
The couple held each other and kissed in the kitchen for quite a while until another sneaky figure came downstairs looking for something to eat, ending the kiss.
"Brother-in-law, what are you cooking today..."
Chen Yan blushed looking at this scene in the kitchen.
Oh my, young people these days are so bold, making out in the kitchen...
But thinking about her first kiss with Ren Jie also being in the kitchen, the small kitchen in Lin Ji, made her feel at ease.
In the past, Chen Yan would have left immediately.
But now...
Yan Baobao also has a partner now, so why should I leave?
Not only do I not leave, but I will also watch boldly, after all, if I’m not embarrassed, the ones who will be are the two big seals clinging to each other, nibbling away.
Seeing the two still not parting, President Chen couldn’t help but cough twice.
"Cough cough... cough cough..."
Shen Jiayue initially thought this cousin had left, but surprisingly she hadn’t.
She let go of Lin Xu, helplessly turned her face and said:
"Yan Bao, if your throat is uncomfortable, go see a doctor, and stop always volunteering to be a light bulb."
"If I weren’t hungry, I wouldn’t bother you two. Got any food? I kept losing and lost all my Fried Liver and Sugary Oil Cakes."
Lin Xu: ?????
What kind of games are you even playing?
Since the elder sister-in-law was also hungry, Lin Xu made a few of the sticky rice cakes coated in sesame that Shen Baobao just had, placed them on a plate, and said:
"The video is finished shooting, you can play on the big TV downstairs... Yueyue, copy the video files to my computer, I’ll edit them later after I’m done."
"Sure... or I can help you edit, it’s just red bean paste after all."
Shen Jiayue felt she wasn’t very talented in gaming, so it was better not to waste time and make use of this break to do something useful.
After all, she’s a full-time content creator, right?
What does it mean to be a full-time creator, if not uploading daily at least?
Not long after, Ren Jie, holding a gaming console, came downstairs with Shen Guofu, chatting about gaming strategies, and they didn’t even bother to eat the freshly made snacks before hooking the console to the TV to continue battling.
