Li An’an was making a honey pork knuckle dish. It was Grandpa’s signature dish back then. Whenever Grandpa made this dish at a banquet, everyone at the table would fight over it. In order for everyone to have a share, Grandpa would finally spread a layer of dried beans under the pork knuckle. After the pork knuckle was done, it was drizzled with soup and steamed on the steamer for half an hour. The dried beans would be soaked in the juice of the meat. This way, everyone had a flavorful share!

This was the dish she was making today. Honey pork knuckle was a common dish in home cooking, but it required great skill to make it soft and moderate, and with the right amount of grease!

As she had more time after making the honey pork knuckle, she made another dish with fresh scallops. This was an imperial dish that she had learned from the recipe book. It was a seafood dish.

After that, Li An’an felt that it was about time. She placed the dishes on the table, then took out bowls and chopsticks for food tasting by the two elders.

Having to face a top food critic like Elder Han, Li An’an felt somewhat uncertain.

Han Dongyue reached for the pork knuckle with his chopsticks instantly. He rarely ate greasy food but confronted by this dish, he lost his composure and picked up a large piece of meat.

When the soft and juicy pork knuckle meat entered his mouth, he narrowed his eyes and tasted it carefully, his expression full of emotions. His hands were also trembling slightly. It was this smell.

He took a deep look at Li An’an and continued to eat. This time, he ate very slowly, as if he was carefully tasting the food. Eventually, his eyes were filled with excitement.

Lin Qiuyue didn’t eat much meat in her diet, but seeing that her husband was eating so happily, she also picked up a piece of meat with her chopsticks. It was soft and chewy in her mouth, and there was a hint of sweetness to it. It didn’t feel greasy at all.

She was surprised. She then reached for the beans with her chopsticks.

Although it was dry, it was very soft from the steaming and did not require much effort to chew. Furthermore, the dried beans were placed under the meat and became very flavorful.

“An’an, I want to eat this with some rice!”

Li An’an filled a small bowl of rice for her. After all, it was pork knuckle. The elderly woman was usually vegetarian, so it was better to go easy for now.

Han Dongyue had already eaten half of his serving. When he had tasted enough of this dish, he turned to the second dish. An expression flashed across his face, it was a look of great surprise and satisfaction.

He got Li An’an to scoop some rice for him.

Li An’an waited by the side. No matter the outcome, she was very happy to see the two elders eating so happily.

After eating his fill, Han Dongyue rinsed his mouth with tea before asking Li An’an excitedly. “How are you related to Li Cheng Ming?”

Li An’an shook her head. “I don’t know him.”

“Then who taught you how to cook?” Han Dongyue found it hard to believe. Although there was a slight difference, the taste was largely similar. This was a flavor that only a unique formula could produce. There was no way he was wrong about this.

“My grandfather. His name is Old Man Li.”

“Does he have a leg that’s a little deformed?”

Li An’an replied, “Yes.” Grandpa became a chef because of his disability.

Han Dongyue was excited when he heard this. That’s right. I had tried looking for him previously, but I didn’t expect him to change his name! No wonder I couldn’t find him. Where is he now?

“My grandfather passed away.” Li An’an didn’t dare to say that he had been angered to death by her father. She was worried that it would make Elder Han sad.

Han Dongyue did not speak for a long time. He could not accept this news.

After all, they knew each other. “An’an, it’s a good thing that you inherited your grandfather’s culinary skills. You cook very well and are extremely talented, but there are flaws still! You can’t compare to your grandfather, especially for the second dish. You’re a little lacking in your management of it. You probably rarely make seafood, but overall, you’re considerably good, so I wonder if you wish to hear my evaluation?” Han Dongyue asked.

Li An’an replied, “Of course I want to. I also have many questions to ask!”

If she wanted to improve, of course she had to accept criticism from others!

That was why she came here in the first place..
