This is a Christmas Eve where some people cry and some people laugh.

The store laughs like bells.

Seeing Tamakawa Misa handing over red wine to Morita Maki, Xia Yu suddenly remembered something and started to the store door, but the car waiting not far away was left with only a vague shadow.

Under the street lights, a bag with exquisite packaging was quite eye-catching. Xia Yu opened the bag and took out a note of message. The handwriting on it was sloppy, obviously left behind in a hurry:

Merry Christmas!

The exclamation mark and pen tip even poked through the paper, with a murderous intent.

Xia Yu laughed.

There are no question marks in formal Japanese. For example, the symbols of exclamation marks are Chinese commas and the period is used the same. However, due to Chinese influence, neon gold uses question marks and exclamation marks in private occasions other than written language.

Isn't this the case now? Alice uses an exclamation mark to express her anger and helplessness.

Xia Yu could only spread his hands in this regard.

If he was going to respond to Alice, he would have a gun on the night of the night attack. Wouldn't he be so heartbroken that he would kill seven in seven out?

Today, he planned to deal with it in a unified manner and ignored anyone, but who knew that Morita Maki was too smart. Until now, he realized that he had made other admirers cry and snowed Christmas Eve, and Xia Yu sighed: "It's still amazing!"

Take the bag back to the house.

The other side of Morita Maki, who was laughing with the Tamakawa sisters, swept over the gift bag in the boy's hand, his long eyelashes trembled, and suddenly said, "Hey, Ayu, you have received a Christmas gift again, what about your return gift?"

"Return gift?"

The steps that were about to go upstairs were stopped. Xia Yu was quite surprised and looked at the girl who was smiling with her chin.

"Is it strange to give me a gift? Are you not prepared?"

Morita Maki said.

"Well……"

Xia Yu touched his head subtly embarrassingly.

If he dealt with it coldly, he would not accept gifts, so naturally there was no saying that he would return the gifts. But he took the girl back in the snow, as if he had broken the rules.

"Yes, we want Boss Xia's gifts too!" Misa Tamakawa raised her hand and agreed with a sweet voice.

Not far away, Tamakawa Ayaka's eyes swept over.

Zhu Qing gloated and said to himself: "You kid, just be busy putting out the fire!"

Before Xia Yu could answer, Morita Maki was in the seat and counted it with her fingers: "Peak Star Door, Xiaohui, Yuhizu, Ryoko and Mrs. Fumio, the Ten Masters' Office includes senior sister Kobayashi, Erina, and other girls such as Hisako, Miyoko..."

Listening to her smile and counting, for some reason, a trace of cold sweat oozed out of Xia Yu's forehead.

"Stop and stop!"

Waving his hand to block it, Xia Yu rubbed his brow: "Are you ready now?"

Morita Maki nodded, her eyes clear, "Etiquette should always be available, and there is no need for any special meaning. It just represents blessings and greetings to friends."

When she said that she was about her friend, the girl's eyes finally showed cunning. Is this considered stabilizing her basic foundation?

"Okay, listen to you!"

Xia Yu shrugged and turned around and entered the kitchen.

Zhu Qing, Misa, Ayaka and Maki all sat in front of the bar and watched him busy through the window.

In less than ten minutes, Xia Yu prepared the ingredients. He planned to spend the middle of the night preparing the Christmas gifts he would give tomorrow, without any complicated things. Just food, Christmas snacks, and express his feelings with food.

The main ingredients are water, flour and yeast.

The auxiliary ingredients are relatively complex, including spices such as tangerine peel, cinnamon, cardamom, as well as almonds and other dried fruits.

Sweeping the kitchen counter full of materials, Aya Kata Kawagawa and Maki Morita, who are good at making snacks, are all shocked.

“Isn’t this the ingredients needed for German Christmas cakes?”

"Oh, cake?"

Zhu Qing said with interest: "What kind of Christmas cake will a chef who pushes open the gate of Linzhi offer? Tsk, suddenly I was looking forward to it!"

There are quite a few people who want to pay the gift, but if each person has a small cake, it is not complicated to make, it is just a waste of time.

Take ready-made salted lemon peels and orange peels in bottles

Xia Yu used a small basin, poured salted lemon slices, orange peel and pickle dry, turned around and took a few tablespoons of wine, mixed it into the ingredients, and soaked it together.

"Ah, don't it usually put rum soaking ingredients here, so that it has a strong Western flavor?"

Morita Maki was amazed.

"Shh!"

Zhu Qing raised his finger on his lips.

In the kitchen, Xia Yu stared at the mixture of materials in the basin in front of him, his brows furrowed together.

He had a sudden inspiration and felt that in this link, it was necessary to make unusual changes. Is it too simplistic to only use ordinary wine?

In fact, the ‘German Christmas Cake’ is his alternative choice for today’s food festival snacks. If it weren’t for the roasted chestnuts and Christmas hot red wine, he might have brought out some cakes tonight.

Therefore, Xia Yu is naturally proficient in the making of the "German Christmas Cake".

Um?

Xia Yu patted his forehead, glanced at the taskbar, and cursed him secretly, how could he forget about the task of using "Melke's Stars". The "Melke Light" obtained from the system is more like a spice recipe than a recipe. Therefore, the cooking format does not have to be limited to the so-called Italian spice bread. The "German Christmas cake" is also a spice cake from the perspective of ingredients.

Repaying gifts and tasks is not delayed, so it should be like this!

"So, where should the taboo spice be used?"

Thinking about it all over the place.

Although there was inspiration in the first part, if you want to add "Melke's Stars", it would be better to keep the wine normal. The idea of ​​putting rainbow wine just now was pinched off in time.

Wake up, but haven’t realized the method of controlling two taboo ingredients at the same time!

Xia Yu reminded himself in this way.

After reading the process of making the "German Christmas Cake" in my mind, several people couldn't help but wonder when they saw that Xia Yu did not pour out the flour and dough, but instead took a bag of powdered sugar.

Powdered sugar, as the name suggests, is powdered white sugar.

But if you have to choose the difference between sugar and white sugar, then there is usually about 3% starch in powdered sugar.

Starch is mixed in to better store powdered sugar. As we all know, white sugar is prone to lumpy, and powdered sugar is even worse. A large lump of lump will be clumped with a little humidification of the air, and the starch can just stop it.

But it's not just powdered sugar.

Then, Xia Yu was quite reluctant to leave and took out the treasured glass bottle. The whole bottle shone brightly. Isn’t it the “Melke’s stars”?

White dust, golden dust mixed.

After thinking about it, Xia Yu used [Spice Inequality] to quickly conceive a spice formula, which is to construct a framework for controlling taboo spices. He first searched for his understanding of taboo spices, which was very important.

"Melke's stars are composed of new amino acids. They can surpass most ingredients in the world in terms of their deliciousness. If you eat them directly, they will have very toxic addiction symptoms..."

"And it is said that the CP ingredients combination of Melk's stars forbidden spices is Shiny Slime Fish!"

Xia Yu associates another taboo ingredient, "Shining Silky Foot Fish".

"Can the system provide a research report on the cooking of Shining Silk Fish? It's all-round!" He communicated with things in his mind.

"Ding, the request has been received. You need to pay 100,000 points of fame value to purchase relevant knowledge..."

Heart beats.

Just the food materials, it costs 100,000 yuan to be famous? Tiankeng!

Blue veins appeared on his forehead, and Xia Yu looked at the fame slot. Fortunately, he had saved a lot of fame value recently, so he gritted his teeth and paid.

Looking at the precious information emerging from the retina, Xia Yu's eyes looked thoughtful.

It seems that there is a clue.

I don't know how long it took.

Shaking his head, Xia Yu looked up at the store. Everyone who had been sitting in front of the bar was going to watch the cuisine performance, and they were sleepy and yawned all over the sky.

Morita Maki supported her head with her hands, dozed off, and woke up again the next second, in a daze.

"I may have to fight for one night, let's break up!"

Xia Yu was speechless.

"Then Boss Xia, come on!"

Tamakawa Misa and Tamakawa Ayaka got up and went back to the apartment next door.

Zhu Qing waved his hand, "You are busy with your own things, don't worry about me."

"I, I'm not sleepy!" Morita Maki said. She ordered a house to help her. She must be tired of the food festival. She obviously couldn't open her eyes and was still holding on.

Xia Yu said with a funny look: "I won't drive you away, but you should take a look, right? You can go upstairs or go to the apartment next door. I promise that you will receive my Christmas gift early in the morning!"

"That……"

Morita Maki's face turned red. Zhu Qing laughed when she saw this and pushed the girl's back, "Let's go, I'll take you up."
Chapter completed!
