Jianbing Guozi is a very famous street snack in Huaxia, and its preparation varies slightly depending on the region.
The general method is to pour oil on a griddle, then pour in batter, crack one or two eggs, brush on various sauces, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and finally add ingredients such as sausage, shredded potatoes, and Guozi. In some places, Youtiao is used instead of Guozi.
Satou chose to use Youtiao, partly because it was easier to make, and partly because Neon people actually quite like to eat Youtiao.
Then, Satou took out the batter he had prepared last night.
"Oh, what is this? Is it batter?"
Alice Nakiri, like a curious baby, came over, peering into the white, gooey batter in the iron bucket, and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, Satou, what dish are you planning to make? If you lose, remember to give me an egg."
"Well, this is a very famous snack from Huaxia!"
Satou smiled mysteriously and said, "It's a very popular breakfast. Get ready to bark like a puppy!"
Alice Nakiri puffed out her cheeks slightly, muttering discontentedly, "I won't bark like a puppy! Hmph, didn't you see how popular my dish is? Just wait to lose!"
On the surface, Alice Nakiri's dish consisted of boiled eggs, raw eggs, and eggs in shells, but this was not its true form. The raw eggs were made with jelly and salmon roe, and the eggs in shells were actually milkshakes.
With its novel appearance and wonderful taste, it had already captivated a large number of diners, and the quantity taken was continuously increasing.
"A Venue, Erina Nakiri has completed 200 servings of her dish."
Just then, a voice rang out from the broadcast.
"What? She finished so quickly?"
"As expected of Miss Erina."
"Damn it."
Upon hearing this news, the students in the venue where Satou was located immediately stirred.
"Damn it! I only have over a hundred servings, Erina is really too much!"
Alice Nakiri said indignantly.
"Look, that transfer student seems to be just starting to sell now, right?"
"Yeah, what was he doing before?"
"He's definitely going to lose badly this time."
Many students noticed the situation on Satou's side and started talking in low voices.
By this time, a considerable amount of time had passed, and many students had already sold close to a hundred servings of their dishes.
"So he was deep-frying Youtiao? Although I don't know what he plans to do, it's a bit too late to start now, isn't it?"
Gin Dojima and Kojiro Shinomiya, who were secretly observing Satou's situation, also frowned.
"Erina is quite fast, isn't she?"
Satou shook his head, but the remaining time was already enough for him.
He poured oil onto a flat pan, then added a scoop of batter, cracked an egg, and sprinkled minced garlic. In a short while, a rich aroma wafted out, incredibly enticing.
"It smells so good, what is this smell?"
"What is he making? Scallion pancake?"
Many customers standing in front of Alice Nakiri's cooking station were drawn by the aroma.
"This is a famous Huaxia snack, Jianbing Guozi, freshly made, please everyone, have a taste."
Satou smiled slightly, placing a finished Jianbing Guozi on a plate, and said.
"Jianbing Guozi? Is it a Huaxia snack? Then I'll try it."
Some customers were tempted.
Although Alice Nakiri's dish was delicious and beautiful, the jelly milkshake didn't suit the taste of Neon people. For breakfast, they still preferred something heartier, like rice.
In Neon, calorie intake at breakfast accounts for 40% of the day, twice that of lunch. So, generally, Neon people eat rice and side dishes for breakfast, and some choose Western-style bread and eggs.
This Jianbing Guozi was glistening with oil, wrapped with cucumber and sausage, exuding the aroma of eggs, and possessed a simple beauty.
"The soft and elastic pancake, with the aroma of eggs, paired with sweet and spicy, refreshing sauce, and crispy Youtiao. After eating it, I feel like my whole body has become warm."
"Yes, it feels like a nutritious breakfast made by family for me, comforting and satisfying."
Diners who tasted the Jianbing Guozi all had satisfied and happy smiles on their faces.
If Erina Nakiri's breakfast on the other side was exquisitely elegant and noble in appearance, then Satou's Jianbing Guozi was approachable, hearty, and delicious, reminding people of breakfast made by family, full of warmth.
"Please give me one too."
"Indeed, for breakfast, it's better to eat this kind of hearty food. I feel like I'll have energy all day."
In a short while, more than half of the customers in front of Alice Nakiri's cooking station were drawn to Satou, and customers were continuously gathering.
"Damn it! He's stealing my customers!"
Alice Nakiri stomped her foot in anger.
"I didn't expect Huaxia's street food to be so popular."
Kojiro Shinomiya was also slightly surprised to see the scene before him.
"There's no inherent superiority or inferiority between dishes, is there? What's called 'high-class' and 'low-class' are just labels people add themselves."
Gin Dojima smiled slightly and said, "But it looks really fragrant, doesn't it? Shall we go over and taste it?"
...
"Tadokoro Megumi has completed 200 servings."
"Takumi has completed 200 servings."
As time passed, more and more people completed 200 servings.
"Huh. Is that guy not done yet?"
Erina Nakiri frowned slightly. Satou still hadn't completed 200 servings of his dish, which was a bit unexpected given his skill.
"Indeed, this time we will determine the winner and decide who is the true God Tongue."
A triumphant smile appeared at the corner of Erina Nakiri's mouth.
At this moment, she noticed Yukihira Soma nearby, who hadn't sold many servings yet.
"What a pity, you're about to be expelled."
Erina Nakiri couldn't help but laugh gleefully.
Who told you to bully me so much when we were playing cards!
She thought with some satisfaction.
...
"Satou, completed 200 servings."
Ten minutes later, Satou finally completed 200 servings.
Among all the students, this speed was not fast, but Alice Nakiri, who was nearby, knew that it hadn't been long since he truly started selling!
If they were to compare actual cooking time, he might even be faster than Erina Nakiri!
