Chapter 1705: Old Shepherd

When the piping hot mutton soup entered his mouth, Harrison felt his sleepy taste buds wake up with a start. However, before he could feel the pain from the scald, the freshness of the soup took over, and launched his taste buds into a hysterical state.

What kind of divine taste was that?!

Was that really mutton soup?

He only tasted the sweet freshness of mutton, and there was no rank odor at all.

The rich bone soup was clear and pure. Even with all the bone marrow infused within the soup, it was not thick and sticky.

When he swallowed the soup, Harrison felt the warmth travel down from his throat and into his stomach.

“Ooh…”

Harrison could not control his fat from jiggling. The chill from lining up outside was completely dispelled with that shudder.

He had a few more mouthfuls of soup, and could feel the warmth travel from his stomach all the way to the rest of his body, making him feel warm and fuzzy inside.

“This soup is comparable to the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’. If we’re talking about soup for the morning, the former has an edge.” Harrison could not help but look towards the kitchen in awe. “Boss Mag is Boss Mag indeed. Even his mutton soup is delicious.”

“This soup is not bad indeed. The ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ is too much in the morning, but the mutton soup is perfect.” Gjerj nodded. After that, he picked up a piece of thinly sliced mutton with his chopsticks.

The mutton wasn’t exactly very enticing appearance-wise. After it was taken out from the soup, its scent was not that rich. However, one could not expect too much from it, since it was used to make soup. After all, the taste of the soup was the top priority.

“Is this small dish for the mutton? Just like for the roast duck. However, this dip is spicy,” Harrison said as he looked at the little dish by the side. He could smell the faint scent of spiciness coming from it.

“Let me give it a try.” Gjerj dipped the mutton in the dry dip, and the soft slice of meat was immediately covered with the spices. The sesame, crushed peanuts, and bright red chili powder injected a soul into the plain mutton, making it look exceptionally enticing.

“Wow, this dip is invincible,” Gjerj praised. After that, he quickly put the mutton into his mouth.

The fragrant and spicy dip, together with the soft and fresh mutton, brought a huge surprise to his taste buds and teeth.

The crushed roasted peanuts and sesame exploded in his mouth together with the different spices to give off an inexplicable fragrance. At the same time, the spiciness made the eating experience even more thrilling.

“This is the best mutton I’ve ever had,” Gjerj praised with a thumbs-up.

“Is it really that good?”

Leiden and Moore heard the two’s compliments for the mutton soup, and could not help but question it. However, the scent from the mutton soup was too enticing, and they could not resist picking up their spoons and chopsticks.

Leiden scooped up a spoonful of soup first. In order to make soup milky white, it would take at least three hours of simmering, and in those three hours, one had to constantly add wood to the fire. That was no easy feat at all.

Even for the sheep that he reared, the mutton would inevitably disintegrate and become impurities in the soup after simmering for three hours. However, this soup was very pure, so it was apparent that the cook used not the meat, but the bone to make the broth.

Just as Harrison said, this soup was fresh and did not have a hint of rank odor. On top of that, the freshness of mutton was brought out even more.

Leiden did not know how the chef had managed to do that. He had thought of various ways to remove the rank odor, but only managed to reduce it a little. He was unable to completely get rid of the odor unless he used a very strong spice to suppress the scent. He would never be able to replicate such a refreshing smell.

After thinking for a while, and not being able to figure anything out from the soup, he put the spoonful of soup into his mouth.

The mutton soup was fresh and sweet, and this spoonful of soup was the epitome of that.

To an old shepherd who had spent his entire life rearing goats, cooking mutton, and eating mutton, this freshness was even more prominent.

The moment he drank the soup, he understood that the quality of this mutton was way better than that of those sheep he had reared.

Even if he were to chop up an entire sheep of his to make one bowl of mutton soup, he would still be far from getting this freshness.

It was not about how rich the freshness was. He long understood that soups that were too rich could easily feel greasy.

The freshness in this soup belonged to another tier of freshness. It came from the ingredient.

He did not know what sheep it was, but having no rank odor at all might have something to do with the animal itself.

However, no matter what sheep it was, the freshness of this soup was indeed something he would never be able to match up to.

It was fresh yet not gamey, rich yet not greasy, and thick yet not sticky. Just these three points alone would require a very good control over the fire used to make this mutton soup. A slight mistake, and this bowl of mutton soup would not be so perfect.

Leiden knew very well how capable he was in making mutton. However, he was a little guilty right now. His skills could only be described as amateurish when compared to this bowl of mutton soup.

“This mutton soup is delicious.” Moore had already gulped down several mouthfuls. His face was shining as though it was the best mutton soup he had ever had!

The moment he had this thought, Moore froze. He turned to look at his father, who was in deep thought, and seemed to have guessed something.

His father’s mutton was indeed the best in their tribe. However, this chef from Chaos City was really incredible. If they could make mutton so delicious, Leiden and Moore would not dare to open a mutton restaurant.

Moore put his spoon down, and picked up a piece of mutton with his chopsticks candidly. He had already come to terms with things. This chef was able to make all these big bosses line up early in the morning, so he would naturally not be someone a shepherd from a small tribe could compare to. Moore thought that he should change his attitude and taste this mutton soup with a mentality to learn.

After cooking mutton in the soup for so long, most of the smell of the meat had already infused into the soup. Although the soup was fresh and delicious, the mutton would probably be tasteless if it was eaten just like that.

Therefore, the chef served it with spicy powder dip.

Leiden did not find that unique. When they had roast mutton, they would usually sprinkle some salt if they found that it was too bland. That was not much different from the spicy powder dip.

He watched Gjerj eat the mutton just now, so he followed suit, and dipped the mutton in the red dipping powder. The mutton immediately looked very enticing with the layer of powder on it. After that, he put the mutton straight into his mouth.

Hot!!!

Leiden’s face flushed red almost immediately. He felt as though a fire had lit up in his mouth, and his tongue was so numb it had lost all sensation.

“Your first time having chili? Chew on it to release the aroma,” Harrison said with a smile. He was way worse than this when he first tried the insanely spicy.

Leiden quickly chewed upon hearing that. The fresh mutton soup squirted out, and that indeed reduced the spiciness significantly. After chewing, the crushed peanuts and sesame’s aroma exploded in his mouth immediately. Coupled with the soft and tender mutton, Leiden felt as though the more he chewed, the more fragrant it got.
