Chapter 106: A Sudden Eating Show
[Upstairs, are you making this up? So this is a white radish? White radish abalone stew? Something doesn’t feel right.]
The corner of Su Yayan’s mouth twitched uncontrollably as she watched her audience practically concluding the thing in her hands to be a white radish. She took a deep breath and said, “This isn’t a white radish. It’s ginseng. Ginseng is an extremely valuable Chinese herb because every part of Ginseng can be used as medicine with different medicinal properties. Today, we’ll be using its flesh.”
Su Yayan pointed at the pale plump Ginseng flesh that was mistaken as a white radish. “The medicinal properties of Ginseng are quite aggressive, its taste is also fairly bitter, so usually, only a little bit is needed.”
After she was done, she placed the enormous ginseng aside and took out some pre-sliced ginseng slices to put them into the pot.
“Okay, I’ll let this pot simmer on its own. Next, let’s make the second soup — the Lotus Seeds, Red Dates, and Duck Soup. Those who have watched my previous lives should know what red dates are, so those who are clueless please watch the recorded broadcasts after this. Now, let’s talk about the lotus seeds…”
Su Yayan poured a bunch of pearly fresh young lotus in a bowl and as she was peeling them open for the seeds, she explained. “These are lotus seeds. They are seeds that were removed from the lotus seed pods, and they smell refreshingly fragrant. Lotus seeds are good for revitalizing deficiencies and it has a calming effect. One could revitalize the spleen, the stomach, and reduce heatiness for better quality sleep after consumption. Elderlies with sleeping problems can consume this for better quality sleep.”
“One thing to note, there is a pit at the center of this lotus seed, which is the green bit over here. The pit is bitter, so friends who are particular about texture and taste can remove it, but don’t throw them out upon removal! Once you dry it under the sun and steep it in tea, it could help reduce heatiness.”
[… say all you want but we don’t even know where we can find it, lest to say eat em.]
[Brilliant discovery, sir! I’ve just tried searching for ginseng and lotus seeds on the shopping network but nothing came up! TAT]
[Not just ginsengs and lotus seeds, all the supposed herbs that Host used, like red dates, seahorse, and many more aren’t sold anywhere online QAQ!]
[I know right! Host, if you can introduce these herbs to us, please also tell us where we can purchase them! Imma wail right now!]
Su Yayan stopped what she was doing when she saw all these groanings and pondered.
Just as the audience thought that she was finally convinced enough to announce the source of her herbal medicine ingredients and insert an advertisement to encourage her followers to purchase, that white slender hand abruptly grabbed a handful of de-pitted lotus seeds and walked away from the live broadcast area.
A soft munching sound and a satisfying sigh were heard. “Mmm, sweet and crunchy, tastes pretty good!”
The audience, “???”
Before her audiences could figure out what was going on, Su Yayan’s hands reached towards the bowl of lotus seeds once more and ate a few more from there. Then, she reached towards the bowl of red dates beside it.
The audiences finally snapped out of their daze to realize that this unruly host of theirs was eating the ingredients right in front of them.
“!!!” Wait a minute, this is a cooking broadcast, not an eating show! Tell us where to find the ingredients now!
