This cake has a silky, cloud-like texture when eaten at room temperature. A sip melts in your mouth, and the cheesy aroma fills your nose. It's sweet but not cloying, absolutely delicious! Freezing it in the freezer is even more amazing! Once you take it out of the freezer, it has a texture like cheese ice cream: dense and slightly icy, the cheese flavor is even stronger, and the sweetness isn't overpowering. In the summer, a piece of this is cool and fragrant, and the refreshing feeling spreads from your mouth to your heart. It's even more satisfying than a brand-name dessert. It's a true freezer "happiness bomb"! This cake has been requested countless times by the Divine Beast. While it's truly delicious, it's a bit of a hassle to make. It definitely cured my procrastination. When this cake was placed on the table, the Divine Beast's eyes lit up, and I muttered to myself, "Next time...next time, I'll definitely not procrastinate." (Of course, whether I can actually do that is another matter.)

Lard rice and lard noodles are classic delicacies engraved in the memory of countless people. It can be called the "liquid gold" of Chinese kitchens. It has a wide range of uses and a strong aroma. When frying, it is kept at a high temperature and can stimulate the original flavor of the ingredients. When making dumplings and pastries, lard is used to mix with noodles, and the finished products are clearly layered, crispy and delicious. Lard was once misunderstood as a "health killer", but modern research has shown that it is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids. Eating it in moderation can provide energy for the body, promote the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, and maintain cardiovascular health. Reasonable intake, lard can not only add deliciousness to the table, but also nourish the body and mind as a traditional food treasure.

The salmon head with attractive color is roasted until golden and crispy, with the edges slightly curled up. The high temperature forces out the fish oil, leaving attractive amber lines on the skin, which is crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. The fresh fruit acid of lemon juice instantly penetrates into the fish meat, neutralizing the greasiness while awakening the taste buds; dip a mouthful of sesame salt, and the salty and fragrant particles burst on the tip of the tongue. Paired with a little wine and a drink with teammates, it is comfortable and satisfying. Watching teammates squint their eyes and praise "drunkenness and dreamlessness", at this moment, there is no need for gorgeous words, the happiness in the fireworks is quietly overflowing, and food and company are the most healing appearance of life.
