Cao Hao was busy until about ten o'clock in the evening. When he still wanted to continue, the system asked him to arrange his work and rest time reasonably and sent him directly out of the cooking space.

The restaurant is not just as big as it seems. Behind Cao Hao's kitchen, there is a staircase that leads directly to the second floor.

However, the second floor is not open to the public. Currently, only a small room is open, and this is Cao Hao's bedroom.

After washing, Cao Hao lay in bed unable to fall asleep for a long time, his mind filled with things about the magic Mapo Tofu.

After two hours of busy work, Cao Hao had actually made two portions of Magic Mapo Tofu, but one plate had a rating of only 37 and the other had a rating of 42.

There is still a long way to go before passing the 60 points.

"Although in terms of taste, the Magic Mapo Tofu made now is much more delicious than the ones made before, but it does not meet the 60-point requirement."

Cao Hao tossed and turned and said: "What's the problem? The ingredients are all provided by the system, so there is definitely no problem in this regard. I have also confirmed the soup of soybean minced meat. The meat is rich in flavor, so there should be no problem. Is it possible?

Was there a problem when it was fried? Well... forget it, let's continue researching when we have time tomorrow. Since it can be scored by the system, it means that there is no problem with Magic Mapo Tofu in general, and the problem should be hidden in the details!"

Thinking that he would be open early tomorrow, Cao Hao forced himself not to think about the Magic Mapo Tofu and quickly fell asleep.

…

Early the next morning, Cao Hao was woken up by the system at five o'clock.

Full of sleepiness, Cao Hao went to drink some cold water and forced himself to wake up.

The business didn't start until six o'clock, and Cao Hao quickly returned to the kitchen and started processing the dough.

After preparing enough dough, Cao Hao ordered himself a bowl of clear soup noodles for breakfast, and after eating, he started waiting for customers to come.

But as time goes by, the morning business can be described as bleak.

In two hours, only three people came in. Other than that, there were no guests at all.

This sudden change caught Cao Hao off guard, who was eager to try after drinking the stamina potion.

It can only be said that Cao Hao underestimated the office workers and high school students in the two worlds.

Office workers in Fuso are very pressed for time. Some workers may have to get off work overtime until after 2 a.m. before getting off work. They have to eat late at night to prepare for tomorrow's PPT. It is estimated that they will not be able to fall asleep until after 4 a.m., and then get up at 6:30 in the morning. Rush to the company.

As for Xiangbei in another world, don't think they mainly play basketball, but students are their main business.

In order to get into their ideal university, they also have to study hard, get up early to go to school, and are still very busy with morning reading and studies.

Therefore, under such an environment, it is normal for there to be few people in the morning business.

In other words, there should be very few business hours at noon, and the real highlight is the evening business hours.

After thinking about this, Cao Hao was a little thankful that he could complete the task yesterday. Otherwise, if the five crystal stones left him, Cao Hao would probably feel so sad that he would cry.

After the business hours ended, Cao Hao plunged into the cooking space again and began to specialize in the magic Mapo Tofu dish.

Based on the situation last night, Cao Hao started to improve a little bit. At the same time, he found a notebook and started recording his improvements. After the system scored, he summarized the quality of the improvements.

Exploring step by step, this is the stupidest way, but it is also a very practical way.

Fortunately for Cao Hao, there is a system that allows him to squander ingredients as he sees fit. Otherwise, if left to the outside world, Cao Hao's wasteful way would probably be criticized to death by many people.

Of course, adhering to the principle of not wasting, Cao Hao also ate all the tofu that failed to be made, but the human stomach capacity is limited.

When he felt like vomiting after eating, Cao Hao could only say sorry.

For this reason, Cao Hao also specifically suggested to the system to get a pet that specializes in eating leftovers, so that these ingredients would not be wasted.

It's just that the aloof system didn't pass Cao Hao's suggestion, or in other words, it didn't pass Cao Hao's advice at all.

The frying time, frying time, and cooking time almost made Cao Hao adjust it to seconds again and again.

But even so, Cao Hao looked at the Magic Mapo Tofu in front of him which only had a score of 55. With the final five-point gap, Cao Hao lost his direction for a moment.

However, after Cao Hao re-read the notebook he had recorded and summed up his experiences, Cao Hao quickly found his direction.

"The heat is uneven. Although the stir-fried tofu is not broken, the internal taste is deviated due to uneven heating. There are also some flaws in the taste of the soybean minced meat soup! It is necessary to create a [crispy] texture of the minced meat, but

But some neglected the combination of flavors.”

After closing the book, this is the answer Cao Hao got after summarizing.

After finding the direction, Cao Hao had a headache again.

Now that I have only mastered the basic heat, if I want to achieve uniformity in the heat of Magic Mapo Tofu, the requirements for the heat are too high. In Cao Hao's estimation, I must at least reach advanced heat control to complete it.

Then Cao Hao took a look at the price. Intermediate heat required 300 crystals, and high-level heat required 1,600 crystals.

Only after you reach advanced levels of heat, you will have a variety of special heat skills depending on the direction you choose, and the prices vary.

But without exception, that kind of skill is recognized by the system as a cooking skill, and each item has no less than 10,000 crystal stones.

Although with diligent practice, it is possible for Cao Hao's skills such as firepower and knife skills to improve.

However, within the seven days specified by the system task, it is absolutely impossible to increase the level of heat from basic to advanced.

If increasing the heat doesn't work, then there's only one thing left!

While thinking about it, Cao Hao turned his attention to the basic spice combination that he saw in the mall when he purchased the physical potion.

The price only requires ten crystal stones, but once mastered, Cao Hao can greatly enhance the taste of food.

"Then bet your last five points on basic spice combinations."

After thinking for a moment, Cao Hao found that it could be done.

If the turnover at noon and evening can be stable and the same as yesterday, then in just three days, Cao Hao will be able to win the basic spice mix.

Supplemented by basic spice combinations, Ace's self-tried Magic Mapo Tofu is expected to hit 60 points and achieve qualified cooking!

After exiting the cooking space, Cao Hao began to prepare the ingredients for the noon business.

Cao Hao kneaded the balls of dough and set them aside to rest. The cucumbers were also cleaned and placed in a specially prepared lunch box for later use.
Chapter completed!
