After a busy morning, Master Chen finally started cooking.
Master Chen's full name was Chen Kangkang, and he was a loyal fan of Jiang Jiujiu's livestream.
He was also quite the hands-on type. After watching the livestream for so many days, he was itching to try it himself. But each attempt was thwarted by minor difficulties—his ingredients would rot before he even started, a casual stir-fry would end up blackened, and a quick fry would result in burnt meat. His efforts always ended in disaster.
This time, however, he was confident.
Because it was simple.
Wash the rice, put it in the pot, add water. The water-to-rice ratio was 1:1. 'One part to one part should be about right,' he figured. Here, Master Chen cut a corner and didn't bother using a scale to weigh the water.
Once the pot was on the stove, he turned the heat to high. He'd wait a few minutes for it to come to a boil, and once it started bubbling, he would turn the heat down to low.
