Chapter 14: High-End Ingredients Often Only Need the Simplest Cooking Method
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Bell sat beside the fire with a snake meat skewer in his hand.
While cooking the snake meat, he interacted with the audience.
“I am going to talk about the most practical techniques now.”
“When cooking food over open fire in the wild, you have to pay attention to the distance between the food and the flames.”
“You have to use the heat of the flames to cook food, and not cook in direct fire.”
“The temperature of the direct fire is too high, and it can easily burn the food. That can be a very bad situation.”
Bell said with a tense expression. The people in front of the screen were also stirred by his emotions.
“Host, what if the food is burnt?”
“Looking at the streamer’s nervous expression, it feels so scary. Is the charred food poisonous? That shouldn’t be. My wife makes charred food every day.”

“Previous poster, I feel sorry for you.”
“No way. Is there really someone who hasn’t eaten his wife’s food?”
“Hey, stop arguing. Listen to what the host is going to say. Why did he say that charred food can’t be eaten?”
Some people still did not forget Bell’s words.
At this moment, they were very curious about the bad situation Bell had mentioned.
After all, they did not know about some of the knowledge that Bell had previously shared.
Perhaps this was some new knowledge they did not know.
Bell said seriously while roasting the snake meat.
“Because burnt food tastes really bad.”

“…”
“…”
Once Bell’s answer was out, rows of ellipses flashed across the screen.
“Host, I’ve taken off my pants. No, I’ve already taken out the pen, and you are telling me this?”
“F*ck, the host is so cunning.”
Seeing that his words had fooled the audience, Bell smiled.
“Haha, don’t be agitated. There’s nothing to do now, so I was just joking with everyone. However, what I said earlier was not false. Using heat to cook food makes it easier to accurately control the temperature. At the same time, it can completely cook the food from the inside out.”
“If you use direct fire to cook food, the skin of the meat might be charred, but the inside will still be raw.”
The audience was not peeved over the joke.

“Host, you’re so cute. Where can I adopt such a child?”
“Previous poster, I’m 1.8 meters tall. Do you want to consider it? I will do you a favor.”

“How terrifying. Has the money for children already spread online as well?”
After cooking the snake meat, he placed it aside and took out the water canteen from his bag and placed it on the fire.
“Although we drank the water from the pit, it’s better to drink it after boiling as the heat kills most of the bacterias.”
“This is the wilderness after all. We have to be careful. If anything happens to our bodies, it will be very troublesome.”
Bell explained to everyone.
“That’s right, that’s right. I just came from another live-stream. That streamer drank dirty water and is already unable to continue.”
“I feel that Bell’s live-stream is so comfortable, while the other contestants’ are a mess.”
“That’s right. Many of them haven’t even solved the problem of food and have begun to eat tree leaves. Some of them were poisoned by the poisonous leaves.”
“Life is short, why cut it even shorter?”
“Hades: Why am I having to work overtime?”

The audience in the live-stream joked.
At this moment, Bell had already finished cooking the snake meat, the originally light ping snake flesh turned white after being cooked.

Although there was no sauce or oil, the snake meat was still roasted golden due to some fat on it.
Bell moved the roasted snake meat closer to the camera.
Seeing the steaming snake meat, many of the audience could not take it anymore.
“Ah, the host is breaking the rules. Why can he cook so well without seasoning?”
“F*ck, isn’t this wilderness survival stream? Why is the host making my mouth salivate so late at night?”
“I want to eat barbecue!”
“The best ingredients usually only require the simplest cooking method.”
The audience was caught off guard by the delicious looking snake meat.
While the other contestants were still enduring the hunger, Bell was eating fragrant roasted snake meat.
Whether it was water, shelter, or food, he did not lack anything.
“I was worried that the host would not be able to meet the daily nutritional requirement in the wilderness since he’s so young. Now, it seems like I was overthinking. Bell, you have to exercise more and not gain weight.”
“It’s not that bad. Look at how much Bell worked today. Moreover, I feel hungry just by looking at how he eats heartily. If my child can have half of his appetite, I would be very happy.”
“Bell is mine. No one is allowed to snatch him.”
The comments were filled with cheers and laughter.

On the other hand, in the other live-streams, the audience was worried seeing the streamers’ situation.
They had no lighting source, so the screen was dark, and they could not communicate with the audience properly.

As for having a shelter, there was no need to mention it.
After going through the situation of the other contestants, the screen in the broadcast room focused on Bell again.
Bell was enjoying the snake meat he had cooked.
Everyone in the broadcast room thought ‘sure enough’.
“As expected, this contestant is really amazing.”
“Look at that snake meat. My appetite has been aroused.”
The beautiful host said jokingly.
Unlike her, Bear and Ed were paying attention to something else.
“His shelter has been made properly. Moreover, he even used leaves to hide the shelter. The distance to the fire is just right. With the stones blocking it, it will not spread out. It seems like this contestant’s condition will not decline today.”
“That’s right. His food handling method is very good as well. It can be seen that this is definitely an experienced person.”
Bear and Ed gave their evaluation.
The two of them were survival specialists, so they definitely had the right to speak.

Their words made everyone even more curious.
What kind of experience did an eight-year-old have to master these survival skills?
“Our young contestant is simply a mystery. It really makes one curious.”

The host said.. Everyone was interested in this.
