"Kai, what is this?"
When Wang Kai was trying to make the Three-Egg Shumai, Jimmy looked at the century egg in Wang Kai's hand in horror.
"This is a thousand-year-old duck egg. It has been stored for a thousand years. How about it? Do you want to try it?"
Wang Kai said to Jimmy with a smirk. Jimmy's eyes widened.
"No, no, Kai, you can't use this to poison the customers. You will put us both in jail."
Jimmy believed Wang Kai's words and thought that the duck egg was really a thousand-year-old duck egg. It was at least many years old because it looked black and rotten. If the customers ate it, they would get food poisoning.
"Alright, I'm just teasing you. This is a Chinese snack. It's made from specially processed duck eggs. It's not as old as a thousand years, only about a month. Don't worry, no one will be poisoned."
Wang Kai stopped joking and explained to Jimmy. Wang Kai had seen many videos of foreigners eating century eggs, and all of them, without exception, felt that it tasted bad. When he saw these videos, Wang Kai really wanted to say, "Why don't you give them some vinegar?" Even the Chinese didn't eat century eggs directly. Century eggs required ginger vinegar sauce or even sesame oil to be mixed in. It would be strange if you didn't feel that it tasted bad when you ate it directly.
Century eggs had a special place in Huaxia's diet. Not only were they delicious, but they also had medicinal value. In Wang Shixiong's "Living at Leisure Diet Guide", it said, "Century eggs are spicy, astringent, sweet, and salty. They can expel heat, sober up, remove heat in the large intestine, cure diarrhea, disperse and recuperate."
Traditional Chinese medicine believed that century eggs were cold and could be used to treat eye pain, toothache, high blood pressure, tinnitus, dizziness, and other diseases.
"Will no one really be poisoned?"
Jimmy still didn't believe it. After all, the appearance of the century eggs was too strange.
"Don't worry. After I finish cooking, you will forget your worries and love this delicacy."
Wang Kai picked up the cooked Shumai skin and put a layer of pork fillings on it. Then, he put the fish eggs in the middle and wrapped them into a small cloth bag. He sprinkled the crushed century eggs on top of the bag. In a moment, five to six Shumai were ready. He put them on the steamer and started to steam them. At the same time, he prepared another type of Shumai, the Golden Ratio Shumai.
After he finished cooking a Shumai with the Golden Ratio Shumai, he also put it on the steamer. These two Shumai were for tasting to give Jimmy some confidence. Otherwise, if Jimmy didn't believe it, how could others believe it?
After eight to nine minutes, the Shumai was cooked. Wang Kai put down the two Shumai and turned off the fire. When he came to the living room, Jimmy was already waiting there.
"Is this the thousand-year-old egg?"
Jimmy asked in surprise when he saw the translucent and jelly-like century eggs on the Shumai. Why was it different from what he saw just now?
"Of course. Try it and see how our dream of getting rich is. Is it delicious?"
Wang Kai used a food clip to give Jimmy a Shumai and put it on the small plate in front of Jimmy.
Jimmy looked at the Shumai in front of him. He felt like he was facing cyanide. If he ate it, he might be poisoned to death.
"Come on. Put it in your mouth and chew hard. Feel the taste."
Wang Kai said to Jimmy. Jimmy looked like he was in a dilemma. Wang Kai was worried.
"Okay. If I die, remember to tell my father that I love him. Kelly is very suitable for him. I don't mind if Kelly becomes his wife."
Jimmy looked like he had accepted his fate. He put the Shumai in his mouth and started chewing hard. He looked like he was eating a big worm. Bear Grylls was instantly attracted to him.
However, with Jimmy's rejection, his wrinkled face began to relax. His eyes slowly narrowed as he began to savor the taste of the Steamed Dumpling with Three Eggs. This was a taste that he had never tasted before. Although Jimmy was not a gourmet, he was a person with all five tastes. He knew what was good and what wasn't.
"Unbelievable. This is a miracle. This is too delicious. Give me another one."
After chewing and swallowing the whole Shumai, Jimmy shouted loudly. He had forgotten his fear of the thousand-year-old egg and was conquered by the taste of the Shumai.
"Easy, man. We have a second taste. Try this."
Seeing Jimmy's expression, Wang Kai knew he had succeeded. Next was the golden ratio Shumai.
"No problem. This is so delicious. The other one must be no problem."
Jimmy trusted Wang Kai completely. Without Wang Kai's help, he picked up the Shumai and put it in his mouth. He chewed hard and let the taste bloom in his mouth.
The final result was that Wang Kai only ate one Steamed Dumpling with Three Eggs and one Golden Ratio Steamed Dumpling. The rest went into Jimmy's stomach.
After confirming that Americans could also taste Huaxia food, Wang Kai decided that his fast food truck would only sell three kinds of fast food: Steamed Dumpling with Three Eggs, Golden Ratio Steamed Dumpling, and Roujiamo.
After knowing that Wang Kai had gotten the license, Jimmy decided to open the restaurant tomorrow. Wang Kai also asked Jimmy to buy ingredients. This time was different. To sell on a large scale, they had to buy a lot of ingredients and process them in advance. Otherwise, how could it be called a fast food restaurant?
After buying the ingredients, Wang Kai began to prepare in advance. He wrapped the Shumai and steamed it in the steamer. As for the Roujiamo, he only needed to bake it in advance and heat it the next day.
