Now that the Mapo had emerged from its pot, the entire live channel instantly exploded.

The viewers were enticed by this plate of food with its delicate red, green and white colours. They were shocked because they never thought that Ye Feis Mapo Tofu would be so enticing in terms of colour and fragrance. This was simply top-grade Mapo Tofu.

At that time, the rate of rewards appearing on the live channel also reached an all-time high.

Props filled the screen like stars filling up the sky, simply uncountable.

That day, many sections of QQ Platforms backstage had Silver Star Deities doing their live broadcasts. Therefore, most of the supervisors and department leaders were busy monitoring their own people. Even so, there were still a few who managed to squeeze into Ye Feis live channel. They wanted to see what Ye Feis results would be doing that day.

When they heard that Ye Fei was going to make Mapo Tofu, all of these people scoffed with their noses in the air.

Cooking tofu? If I recall correctly, didnt this guy already make a tofu dish once?

Indeed, it was Cola Tofu. It was quite well made, with good selling points.

But Mapo Tofu would not necessarily have the same impact. My wife often makes this too. I must say, each time she makes it, it was like some kind of disaster. If she did not tell me the name of the dish, I thought she had served some kind of smashed tofu with sauce instead. Can hardly find an intact cube of tofu inside. All were broken up, just looking at it made me lose my appetite.

Haha, the one in my family is also the same. The Mapo Tofu can suddenly transform into Mapo Douhua. [1]

This dish is really not easy. Although it looks very simple, it is difficult to achieve the best result because too many factors need to be controlled in the process. Although I do not know much about cooking, I also know that in order to make a successful Mapo Tofu great, skill is needed, ah [a].

This guy actually wants to make Mapo Tofu today. Huh huh, not that I dont think highly of him, but hes really making things difficult for himself, ah. Im going to sit here and wait for him to smash his own stall.

Dont say that, after all, he still has some ability. Moreover, he is from our platform. Lets hope for his success.

Some people were waiting to see Ye Fei make a fool of himself, while others sweated as they watch Ye Fei work.

Silver Ranker Forum.

The few Silver Star broadcasters who were not on air at that particular moment was also discussing that matter.

Mapo Tofu ah? Hum looks like this guy wants to dig a hole for himself.

This dish is too well-known. Its something that people often order at restaurants. However, a lot of those so-called chefs would serve me something messed up instead. Once, I ordered Mapo Tofu at a restaurant and I thought they got my order wrong because it looked more like a plate of Douhua with spicy sauce. Your mom, cant even find an intact piece of tofu cube. Just looking at that thing made me lose my appetite immediately.

I wonder how Ye Feis dish will turn out.

Still need to ask? Let me tell you, I believe that he can do a good job with some weird obscure dish, but a Mapo Tofu? After all, a good Mapo Tofu has to be made with very tender tofu. That thing will break if you look at it wrong.

When the people from the Fine Food Section heard that Ye Fei was going to make Mapo Tofu, their hearts all stuttered.

Deity Ye wants to make Mapo Tofu? F*ck me, this dish looks simple, but it is really not easy to do, ah.

Yes, the tender tofu breaks too easily.

Mommy ah, I hate cooking tofu. It is not that I do not want to cook it, but I really cannot cook it. Once, I fried tofu. What I put in was a motherf*cking bunch of tofu cubes, and what came out of the pan was a plate of Tofu Brain. F*ck it all, it made me so depressed that I collapsed on the spot.

I also cook smashed-up tofu every time. There is no other way, the tofu is too soft.

Deity Ye really dares to make this, ah. Trying to make this dish well is really difficult.

Deity Ye, you must succeed, please please please.

When Ye Feis followers first heard that he was going to make Mapo Tofu, none of them were optimistic about the result.

However, it turned out that Ye Fei actually created a top-grade dish!!

Nesting within the scarlet broth, white cubes of tofu sat inside like good little babies. Dont talk about broken cubes, not even a single piece suffer any kind of deformation.

As they stared at the plate of Mapo Tofu, the entire mob of people were dumbfounded.

Still asking if there is anyone that wants to eat? Cant you tell that our heads have almost flown off already? Everyone is trying to grab it.

Deity Ye, you will have no friends if you do this, giving you advice for free.

You will be beaten when you go out.

Deity Ye, if this mommy is beside you, you would absolutely be bitten to death. Let me tell you, I just swapped a new mouthful of teeth, they are made of porcelain.

Puuu, upstairs, what is your venerable age this year, ah?

Eighty-two, why?

I Hello grandma, goodbye grandma.

The live broadcast channel was simply way too joyful, regardless of each persons real age, at that moment, they were ten thousand percent excited!

Ye Fei rubbed his hands and laughed, Alright, alright, since everyone is so enthusiastic, then lets draw one for now. First of all, this thing is random, I am not sure who will be chosen. The rule still applies, if you do not want to come over and cook with me, thats fine. If it is too inconvenient for you to come, let others come in your stead. They can come in your name.

Got it, got it, hurry up hurry up hurry up.

Deity Ye, draw me draw me draw me

Upstairs, you havent flown yet?

Youre the one who flew, your whole family flew together.

Since everything had been clearly said, Ye Fei placed his hand on the wireless mouse and said, Everyone, its starting, ah.

Aiyo, holy sh*t, start, ah, Im so anxious waiting for this, ah.

Cut the crap, silence in the playing field!

With gods blessing, be sure to draw me, draw me, draw me.

Your mom, God can draw you to death God, draw me please.

Ancestors above, bless your best descendant, allow me to dominate in this lottery. Once I learn how to make the food, I will first make a plate for you to try.

Puu~~ upstairs, are you damn sure your ancestors can eat the dishes you make?

Use as offerings.

Just as the crowd was making a commotion, the cursor hovered over the three words [Wheel of Fortune].

He gently clicked.

[Gumihou: Eh, did a little bit to increase drama]

[a] These people are making it sound like Mapo Tofu with intact tofu cubes needed some mystical power. Let me tell you, if you have a deep pan with a strong handle and a good fire, you can make Mapo Tofu with soft tofu and still keep the cubes intact.

The secret is to NOT touch the tofu with a spatula or whatever once they are in the broth. Shake the PAN instead. You may spoon the broth over the tofu cubes, but shaking the pan is often good enough to coat them thoroughly.

When you want to serve them, scoop the Mapo Tofu out with a spatula, NOT a spoon. You can also pour it out onto a deeper plate, like Deity Ye.

Thats it, thats the secret to not turning your Mapo Tofu into Douhua.

Shake the pan.

Pill Bug TL Notes:

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Douhua AKA Tofu Brain.

Basically, when poorly done, it looks like tofu that has been mashed up so much it is almost soy milk. Properly done, it is a block of tofu that is so delicate it is barely holding together, melting into soy milk on your tongue. Still, it is almost tasteless, needing syrup for flavour.

Gumihou: Its always hilarious to me that its translated as tofu brain.
