Minute Difference

After finding out that Yuan Zhou had not added any sugar, Ji Yi appeared agitated or even deranged as he started mumbling to himself.

"Why is it sweet without sugar? You're using the northern wheat? No, that should not be the taste," Ji Yi frowned as he looked at Yuan Zhou. He was not known as Master of Cooked Wheaten Foods for no reason. He had a clear understanding of the tastes of the various flours.

"This old man is behaving like a child." Liu Zhang looked at Ji Yi helplessly.

Yuan Zhou glanced at Liu Zhang before answering, "The northern wheat has a decent toughness and taste. They can be used to produce dough of good quality. But for this particular dish, the southern wheat is better as they have more moisture in them while flour produced from them will be sweeter. With cold spring water, the sweetness can be released."
