The professional stove's flame is very intense, and the water in the pot boils again in a few seconds, with quite a bit of white foam appearing.
Xie Baomin used a spoon to skim off the foam, then took a large slotted spoon to scoop out the snake skin all at once, shook it slightly to drain the excess water, and then poured it into ice water.
Once inside, he pressed the large slotted spoon on top to keep the snake skin fully submerged in the ice water, preventing it from overheating and losing its crispy texture.
"Soaked like this, no matter how you make a cold dish, it'll taste good."
Xie Baomin wiped his hands, looked at the snake meat in the pot beside him, and curiously asked:
"Is it almost done? Don't overcook it; if snake meat is overcooked, it gets mushy, and the texture won't be as good."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xu lifted the pot lid to check, and sure enough, the snake meat was thoroughly cooked.
