As soon as the corn brought by A Bing appeared, Liu Yuan said "ah" and pointed at the corn in surprise: "This corn... isn't this corn like the one sold by the foreign merchants in Luoma City?"

Everyone, please go and try it soon.]

Wen Mingtang nodded, glanced at Liu Yuan with some surprise, and said, "That's corn!"

Liu Yuan, who couldn't even tell the difference between garlic leaves and leeks, was able to accurately identify the "variety" of corn, not because his knowledge suddenly soared in just a few days, but because he couldn't resist it when he visited Luoma Market.

Hu Shang boasted a lot, and he couldn't help but buy some out of curiosity, and then...

Liu Yuan pointed at the corn kernels, which were smaller and stronger than ordinary corn kernels. He looked at the slightly transparent corn kernels with a look of fear on his face: "This corn is so unpalatable that Master Wen can't believe it."

Those Hu businessmen are talking nonsense, it’s better to use our own corn in Da Rong!”

Wen Mingtang looked at Liu Yuan who looked frightened and couldn't help laughing: "Hu Shang, it's not all nonsense. If this corn is cooked normally, it won't be as soft, waxy and sweet as our Da Rong corn.

But it’s perfect for making this snack called popcorn!”

After that, he took a piece of prepared butter and put it into the pot. When the butter was completely melted and the fragrance of milk spread, he immediately scooped a small bowl of corn kernels and poured it into the butter.

Liu Yuan curiously looked at the corn kernels poured into the butter. When he was about to ask Wen Mingtang whether the corn was fried and eaten, he heard a "pop" sound, and one of the corn kernels visible to the naked eye suddenly burst.

A white "cloud"-like flower appeared in everyone's field of vision.

Liu Yuan was dumbfounded: This...is this a magic trick?

Just as he was about to speak, Wen Mingtang on the other side quickly picked up the lid of the pot and put it on when the first corn kernel burst.

Then, a burst of "cracking" explosion sounds like firecrackers came from the pot. As the sound became louder and louder, Wen Mingtang lifted the pot and shook it back and forth on the fire.

When I finally felt that it was almost done, I suddenly opened the lid of the pot. There was only a small bowl before the lid was put on the pot. The corn kernels that could not even cover the bottom of the pot had completely expanded to fill the entire pot.

After pouring all the popcorn that bloomed like clouds in the pot onto the oiled paper and letting it cool, Wen Mingtang quickly started making the second pot of popcorn.

The people on the side couldn't help but gathered around the pile of freshly made popcorn: the popped popcorn was light and soft, exuding a strong fragrance of corn and frankincense.

The aroma was so enticing that Liu Yuan swallowed subconsciously and was about to reach out to take it when he heard Tangyuan shouting: "Liu Sicheng, wait a minute!"

Although he was tempted by the strong fragrance of corn and frankincense and wanted to reach out, Tangyuan still remembered what Wen Mingtang had said before, and kept a close eye on Liu Yuan, who couldn't help but try something new, and stretched out his hand like a baby.

General protected the popcorn on the table and said: "This popcorn is not ready yet, please wait!"

While he was talking, the caramel in Wen Mingtang's pot was already boiling. He poured the popcorn on the table into the pot, weighed the pot, and let the caramel coat each popcorn before pouring it out again!

After walking around in the caramel sauce, the white "body" of the popcorn has been coated with a layer of yellow-brown caramel syrup. The originally rich aroma of corn grains, and the frankincense are mixed with the rich caramel aroma.

The aromas blended with each other and merged together, just like the aroma of the caramel milk tea that day, forming a unique aroma that belongs exclusively to popcorn.

Smelling the sweet and rich aroma of popcorn in the air, Liu Yuan swallowed his saliva and asked the glutinous rice balls: "Little ancestor, can you eat it now?"

Tang Yuan rolled his eyelids, quickly picked up a popcorn and threw it into his mouth: "Well, you can eat it, you can eat it!"

The caramel syrup on the surface of the freshly made popcorn has not yet solidified, so it is slightly sticky. The sweet aroma of caramel is in your mouth. As for the texture of the popcorn... it is really unexpected.

Different from ordinary corn, which is fragrant, glutinous, sweet and soft, this popcorn has a crispy texture, and there is a "sticking" sound when you bite it. However, this crispiness is different from ordinary crispy things. It is mostly puffy,

Due to the cloud-like "body", it seems to be particularly "fluffy".

One bite at a time, the glutinous rice balls really like the taste of this sweet snack called popcorn.

Seeing that the glutinous rice balls were eaten, Liu Yuan immediately stepped forward and grabbed a large handful into his hand, and then eagerly threw one into his mouth.

The crispiness, fluffiness and sweetness in the mouth made Liu Yuan, who had been greedy for a long time, squint his eyes with pleasure, and took one bite. When the last one in his palm was put into his mouth, he couldn't help but sigh: "My hands are not small,

I caught a lot in the handful just now, but this thing is too fluffy, so I ate it all in a short time!"

The pot of caramel popcorn that had just come out of the pot was piled high like a mountain when it was poured on the oil paper. At this time, there were only a few scattered ones left! Ah Bing, who had quick eyes and quick hands, immediately reached out and swept them all away.

into his arms, and then... quietly distributed it to the glutinous rice balls on the side.

Liu Yuan: "..." Are you pretending that they can't see this action?

He let out a sigh and was about to speak when he saw Wen Mingtang, who was making another pot of popcorn in the box, poured out the cooked popcorn, started making caramel sauce from the pot!

But in addition to the sugar and water just now, Wen Mingtang also grabbed a pinch of salt.

Liu Yuan was startled by this move and immediately tried to stop him by exclaiming: "Master Wen, it's wrong! It's wrong!"

"That's right!" Lin Fei, who was slowly eating a handful of popcorn, was looking down at Wen Mingtang's fried syrup. Hearing this, he said smoothly, "Think of it as salty and sweet. The sweet aroma of caramel sauce."

It’s rich, if you add a little saltiness, it should be delicious!”

Flavors in the world are never black and white. Why can't sweet and salty tastes coexist at the same time? Just like salty meat and vegetables, a little sugar is added to make them fresh.

Wen Mingtang, who had almost fried the syrup, glanced at Lin Fei subconsciously when he heard this and said: "Lin Shaoqing is right! Don't worry! This salty and sweet one will definitely not lose to the sweet one!"

While he was talking, the popcorn coated in salty-sweet syrup was already out of the pan! Compared to everyone who only pinched one to try it out, Lin Fei reached out and grabbed a large handful, and then ate it slowly.

The few people who had tried it in that compartment had already reached out to grab the popcorn on the table again: Master Wen was right, the sweet and slightly salty taste actually seemed to have a richer texture than the original caramel taste.

Some, if you like this one, you will probably fall in love with this taste!
