Chapter 267: Chapter 268 Egg Custard

It wasn’t that she couldn’t stack up more stoves, but the ’bamboo’ left in Su Tang’s hands could only be used to make one more steamer.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, after she finished making a steamer, the aroma of the steamed eggs in the previous clay pot began to waft out.
When she opened the lid, a puff of white smoke rose.
Mingling with an indescribable fragrance were bursts of meaty smell.
The egg liquid in the clay bowl had solidified into a light yellow substance.
Huang Guo couldn’t help but widen his eyes, "This, this, how did this happen? It wasn’t like this when I ate it before ..."
Gaiyin was jumping around in front of the stove, too!
"Sister-in-law, I want to eat! It smells so good!"
After cooling it slightly, with Gaiyin’s help, Su Tang scooped a spoonful of egg custard from one of the clay bowls. The custard was springy and bouncy.
She blew on it gently and then handed it to Gaiyin’s mouth, "Watch out, it’s hot..."
Gaiyin couldn’t wait to take a bite, his tiger eyes widened and he mumbled, "Mmm! So delicious... Su Tang, you’re amazing!"
Su Tang chuckled softly.
"The spoon is over there, everyone help yourselves. It’s a bit hot, so be careful. There isn’t much, so everyone just takes a bit ..."
After a brief chaos, everyone quickly settled down.
Su Tang fed a spoonful of egg custard to Gaiyin, and then took a bite herself.
Tender! Fresh! Silky!
The springy texture was simply irresistible!
But Su Tang still preferred the salty egg custard. Back in her old world, she’d add a tiny bit of salt and sesame oil to the custard, then sprinkle a layer of chopped spring onions on top. The taste was just heavenly!
Even though she couldn’t replicate that taste here, she was very satisfied!
She squinted her eyes in contentment and smiled at Gaiyin, "How was it? Amazing, right?"
Gaiyin smacked his lips, "Too soft, I still prefer meat!"
Though he said so, he honestly finished all the egg custard that Su Tang had fed him.
"You really don’t appreciate it. Do you know that the nutritional value of this egg custard isn’t any less than that of meat!"
Gaiyin stopped talking and quietly enjoyed Su Tang’s feeding.
So, after that night, the Beastmen of the Winged Tiger Tribe had a new understanding of Gugu eggs and another cooking method was added to their menu!
...
In the following three days, everyone was busy with their responsibilities, and work efficiency rose dramatically!
As for the plant used to make the steamer, let’s just call it the Hollow Tree.
The hollow tree forest was not too far from the valley. Su Tang intentionally went to inspect it and found that the bamboo here was indeed different from that on her home planet.
The towering tree trunks were very smooth. Some were only as thick as Su Tang’s wrist, but some were thicker than she was. However, most were about as thick as her thigh.
The trunks did not have any leaves, but at the top of each trunk, a bunch of leaves burst forth and drooped down like a willow tree.
From a distance, the tree looked like a thin person with an explosion of hair on top. Quite funny!
Perhaps due to species differences, there were no bamboo shoots, like those on her home planet, to be found here.
Su Tang sighed.
Looks like her gourmet list was going to lose one more item...
However, she didn’t have much time to dwell on this.
The Stone Beastmen had been working hard to dig out caves over the past three days. The stones they dug out were divided into stone bricks and piled up on the grassland outside — a big pile that looked like a small hill!
Su Tang estimated there must be at least a hundred thousand...
So Gaiyin gave the order for two teams of Beastmen to continue digging for stones while the others started preparing to build houses!
