Chapter 66 We're Tough (2)_1

"Alright!" Ge Liu went back to ask the chef, then he went to find the Shopkeeper.

Before long, Moon Tavern's Second Shopkeeper followed him out, looked at the bamboo rats in the sack, and asked Pei Qin, "Do you have any other ways to cook these? If it's good, I'll buy your bamboo rats!"

"Let's try it then!" Pei Qin said, holding the sack.

The Second Shopkeeper led them to the back kitchen.

It wasn't even midday yet; only the chef's assistants and apprentices were tending the fires and doing prep work in the kitchen.

Pei Qin grabbed a large bamboo rat and killed it, then scalded the rat briefly to remove its fur. "You don't need to peel and sell the skin! The skin is even more delicious than the meat!"

Where the fur hadn't come off cleanly, she roasted it over the fire, cleaned it meticulously, and the bamboo rat skin turned a golden brown, exuding a savory aroma.

Pei Qin roasted it directly over the charcoal fire for a while, then chopped it into pieces and braised it.
