Logically, the success of all things has its inevitable reasons.
From humanity dominating the Earth to the success of Haagen-Dazs ice cream.
Although Duke always thought Haagen-Dazs was too sweet, before his time travel, many people in his country would easily associate it with the best ice cream when asked.
Of course, for Duke, a semi-competent traveler, to create any Haagen-Dazs product identically is impossible.
Duke's biggest advantage is that no one in Azeroth has ever tasted the genuine Haagen-Dazs!
If this wasn't a world embroiled in war, Duke was absolutely confident that he could become the richest person in this world just by using the knowledge of a traveler.
Don't ask why Duke would make ice cream. Back in his engineering university, which resembled a monk's temple with scarcely any female beings, there was only one small shop within three kilometers of the university. Not only did it sell pineapple beer, but it also dared to refreeze melted ice cream after a power outage and sell it again.
In a fit of rage, Duke, deprived of ice cream, made his own.
And so, he remembered how.
Also, don't ask why eat ice cream in the dead of winter.
Haven't you seen the true form of the lady, who is drooling almost enough to flow out, is a super dragon?
Her belly is full of... stomach fire.
Dragon breath, okay? How could it not be hot?
This is not a problem at all.
Moreover, the cunning Duke, in order to maximize the effect of doing nothing, also specially carried out a large contrast operation.
So, while the nine heroes of the Alliance were fighting to the death downstairs, Duke and Alexstrasza slipped to the roof of Karazhan to make gourmet food.
Duke got what he wanted after a few teleports.
After Prince Malchezaar knelt, the roof of Karazhan was vacated, and the Queen sat cross-legged on the railing, looking left and right, sniffing the increasingly rich aroma in the air, with a moved expression almost to the point of tears.
On the left was a roast whole beef.
Roast beef is something the red dragons have not eaten less of. Duke's method is more authentic. After removing the internal organs and skin, Duke used the Mage's Hand to fix the cow's body on a specially made iron rack, and then put various prepared spices and seasonings inside the cow.
Uh, since mustard was made, Duke has invested at least 100,000 gold coins on the path of seasoning that doesn't return. Cumin is gone, but similar things are still found.
The surface of the body is smeared evenly with a pasty seasoning, and only about a dozen Mage's Hands lift the iron frame into a large pit specially used for roasting whole beef.
The pit specially made for roasting whole beef is like an iron can, built with bricks, about four meters long, about two meters wide, and two meters deep. After putting the cow into the pit, the bottom of the pit is hot charcoal fire.
As long as it is roasted under the charcoal fire for a few hours, the color of the beef will slowly turn golden. Golden means harvest, that is, the roast whole beef is cooked.
Duke once asked if Alexstrasza could wait.
The Queen was absolutely: "It's okay, what I lack the most is time."
For a guardian dragon that has lived for more than 20,000 years, what is lacking is not time, but novel things!
Okay, gourmet supplier Duke continues to work.
Since it is pseudo-Haagen-Dazs ice cream, simple ice cream cannot satisfy the Queen, or accurately, it cannot satisfy Duke's appetite.
What Duke is going to do is red bean ice cream.
Let the system sprite control the Mage's Hand to pick out the impurities in the red beans, such as small stones, and wash them clean. Soak the red beans in cold water for 1 hour, add water, and use the "three boiling three simmering" method (boil the water and simmer for half an hour after turning off the heat, repeat this 3 times) to cook the red beans.
At the same time, beat the eggs into a small basin. There is no egg beater in a hurry, but this does not stump Duke. He directly lets the Mage's Hand rotate at high speed in the small basin to replace it. When the color changes slightly, it is successful.
Duke slowly added milk and sugar while beating the eggs, and kept stirring.
Heat slowly with a small fire, Duke chats with Alexstrasza while heating and stirring these semi-finished products.
When it is boiled, Duke adds cornmeal paste to it.
Unfortunately, there is no cornstarch in this world. Duke really doesn't know how to make that refined thing, and he can't make it. He can only use finely ground cornmeal instead.
However, fooling people, oh, fooling dragons is definitely okay.
After adding cornmeal, it is still stirring, and stirring until it is even.
Heat again, this time it is more viscous, slowly heat with a small fire, after heating, put it in a container.
Generally speaking, the next is a long cooling wait.
Normally it takes about 4 to 5 hours to freeze well, but when Duke saw that the dragon queen, who obviously has a serious foodie attribute, swallowed once a minute, Duke resignedly improved it with magic.
The illustrious Moon ** Master Duke, with his unparalleled magical control ability, began to use frost elements to accelerate the cooling of the ice cream as much as possible without damaging the quality of the ice cream.
The roast whole beef is the same.
About half an hour later, when the roast whole beef and ice cream were almost done at the same time, Muradin and the other nine people also came to the roof under the guidance of Khadgar.
"Yo! Duke! Those two big monsters are really good, we have gained insight." Muradin's loud voice made his voice arrive before the people: "My rock ancestor! What is this fragrance?"
Then everyone heard a sweet female voice: "Hey, Duke, give it to me—will you give it to me? I beg you—give it to me quickly, I can't stand it anymore."
That pitiful flavor, any man who hears it will feel his bones go soft.
If it were in other places, Alleria might be unhappy.
Unfortunately, after smelling the rich aroma, the Windrunner sisters were all lost!
A group of guys rushed up at the speed of a charge.
No, Muradin, this bastard, directly used the warrior's [Charge] skill.
"Mine! Mine! All mine—"
What do dwarves love the most?
Food and wine!
Don't talk about Muradin, this ball, other heroes who have experienced a fierce battle, seeing the situation in front of them, are also salivating. You know, although no one was injured just now, the physical and mental expenditures are real. What is more surprising than having a delicious barbecue and mysterious ice cream after victory?
A group of guys first pounced on the golden roast whole beef, and then when they found that the dignified Red Dragon Queen was actually eating roast meat without grace, and then taking a spoonful of ice cream, everyone's eyes changed.
Yes, it's a bit nonsense to pair roast meat with ice cream, but alas, a group of turtle heroes in the food desert of Azeroth have never seen it!
