Chapter 650: Chapter 301: Sending a Surprise to Shen Baobao! Watching Them Eat Stir-Fried Cake Strips Looks So Delicious, Can You Make It? [Subscription Requested]

"This is what Chinese pastries are supposed to look like!"

Geng Lishan held a small apple in his hand and scrutinized it repeatedly, feeling that this episode was very meaningful.

When modern people talk about Chinese pastries, they mostly think of green bean cakes, red bean cakes, peach cakes, and other common snacks. However, in reality, there are many types of Chinese pastries.

This type of realistic miniature pastry is a small offshoot of Chinese snacks.

In fact, high-end Chinese snacks are numerous, but because they were only circulated among high officials and nobles in the past and did not spread to the common people, many are unaware of them.

It has reached the point where historical dramas now use Japanese snacks, which is truly infuriating.

The old firebrand Geng Lishan couldn’t help but feel emotional, thinking that "A Taste of the Human World," this culinary show, should not only promote food but also subtly incorporate food culture. Let the audience truly appreciate the charm and profoundness of Chinese culinary culture.

Zeng Xiaoqi, after eating one, wanted to continue eating but really couldn’t fit more, considering the small apple was actually a steamed bun with filling, and quite substantial at that.

"Boss Lin, can we add this type of wheat fruit to our menu?"

Well, if Lin Ji’s Food were to offer it, then she wouldn’t eat anymore; she’d just wait and try the new offerings at the store. If it’s not updated, then...maybe just one more. She had to satisfy her craving, even if it meant stuffing herself. She also shared it in the group chat, confident it would make her besties drool with envy.

The question indeed stumped Lin Xu.

He had been so busy marveling at the magic of the wheat fruit that he forgot to use the Cooking Learning Card. He hadn’t learned how to make the wheat fruit.

He checked the Points Mall, which had the recipe for wheat fruit with dates, and the exchange price wasn’t expensive. But he still hesitated about whether to exchange, because if these techniques couldn’t be monetized, it would be quite a waste of points.

"I don’t know if the customers will go for it if we add it," he said.

The biggest fear with launching a new dish is it being ignored, especially a snack like wheat fruit. At a time when fruits are available all year round, would many people choose wheat fruit? This stuff could easily cost more than ten times the price of actual fruit.

"They’ll definitely go for it! Once this episode airs, I bet the whole internet will have a surge in wheat fruit popularity. If the store introduces wheat fruit then, it would be hard for it not to become a hit!"

Zeng Xiaoqi naturally hoped for a new addition.

That way, she could quietly achieve wheat fruit freedom.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xu immediately nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll practice it and try introducing it in the store. I’ll add it to the surprise menu items when the time comes."

The arrival of Qiu Zhenhua made the studio lively.

Lin Xu didn’t continue to disturb everyone. He quietly left with a food box containing the small apples, changed back into casual clothes, and drove away from the television station.

It wasn’t easy for his senior brother to find a chance to appear on screen; better not steal the limelight.

As for the wheat fruit, he could study it further later. After all, the production process was already clear, simply involving making the filling, mixing the dough, wrapping the filling, shaping, steaming, and coloring, among other steps. If he studied hard, he should be able to make it.

Turning onto West Third Ring, Lin Xu looked at the food box on the passenger seat next to him and suddenly thought of Shen Baobao, whose East Ming Building was located on West Third Ring.

Instead of waiting for this girl to get off work to taste it, why not deliver it now? Better to avoid it cooling down and the taste deteriorating.

At this time, Zeng Xiaoqi, who had resisted eating a second wheat fruit, took a few photos of the wheat fruit with her phone and immediately posted them in the "Good Sisters Bra Size Doesn’t Shrink" group.

Yes, ever since Wei Qian had told Song Tiantian he wanted to lose weight, the group name had been changed to what it was now. He was already taken, so the old group name didn’t fit. If Tiantian also found someone, wouldn’t that make the group name utterly misleading, as if it were trying to have it both ways?

"What is this? Did you buy miniature apples?" Chen Yan replied immediately after seeing the message while browsing her phone in the office.

Ha, our Director Zeng is planning to substitute meals with fruits again, huh? Wonder how many hours she’ll last this time.

Right after she sent that message, Dou Wenjing said in the group: "Why buy these small apples? Because they help control your calorie intake? @Zeng · 34B · Xiaoqi."

Zeng Xiaoqi replied with a punching emoticon: "@Dou · 32D · Wenjing, you better change your group nickname back! There’s no need to bully me like this, or else I’ll pull two ads from Lin Ji’s Food!"

Showing off bra sizes isn’t scary; it’s just embarrassing for whoever is smaller.

Zeng Xiaoqi initially wanted to show off the wheat fruit, but Chen Hanhan and naughty Dou Dou had derailed the conversation.

While chatting, Shen Jiayue sent a message in the group: "Why did you all change your group nicknames, but not mine? This little apple looks so cute, Director Zeng, where did you buy it? I want to get some. I love these delicate little fruits, perfect for after meals, yum."

Shu Yun, who had just finished checking the sanitation of a private room, saw the picture and curiously sent a message: "This looks very similar to the wheat fruit from Fishing Platform’s Building No. 6, @Zeng · 34B · Xiaoqi, did Chef Qiu from Fishing Platform go to the TV station to film?"

What? 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

This is wheat fruit?

Wheat fruit is a snack? But this little apple looks exactly like the real thing; could it be fake?

Seeing Xiao Wei about to break open a wheat fruit, Zeng Xiaoqi walked over, filmed a short video with a smug expression, and sent it to the group: "Look, it has an apple filling inside. I’ve already tasted it for you—super delicious, super yummy. If you want to try it, you can zoom in and lick your screens."

Hmph! You lot were subtly mocking my small chest, so I’m going to make you all drool with envy!
