After transmigrating to a parallel world, Gu Zhirui opens his eyes to find himself on the set of the food variety show A Feast of Mountains and Rivers. He plans to show off his cooking skills, but unexpectedly binds to the [Unorthodox Cooking System]!
As long as he makes food using bizarre, unconventional methods, he can earn rewards!
And so...
On the set, Gu Zhirui’s cooking style grows increasingly surreal.
Have you ever seen cold noodles made from dried noodles?
Ever heard of scallion-oil noodles made in a microwave?
To make [pizza], other people need high-gluten flour, and have to knead, proof, and rest the dough. Without an oven, they can’t make it at all.
Gu Zhirui simply takes two steamed buns left in the fridge overnight, rinses them under the tap, crushes them with his bare hands, kneads them into a crust, and bakes it just fine in an air fryer!
Other people making [braised pork ribs] have to blanch the meat, caramelize sugar, and keep an eye on the stove the whole time.
Gu Zhirui simply brings out the sect’s divine artifact, a rice cooker, tosses in the ribs, then casually throws in a skewer of candied hawthorn. The ribs come out glossy, tender, and full of flavor, and even a famous food critic is left stunned!
Beef marinated with kiwi!
Braised pork made with Snow King’s Fresh Orange drink!
Barbecued pork made with Yakult!
Marinated eggs made with Guojiao iced black tea!
Ice cream made with leftover rice!
Steamed buns made with Yingyang Kuaixian!
A perfectly ordinary food variety show is turned by Gu Zhirui into an unorthodox cooking show!
Online viewers exclaim:
“Traditional methods can rack their brains all day, but one flash of inspiration from an unorthodox cook beats them!”
“This guy is a born cooking prodigy, with the ultimate food-spirit root!”
Everyone thinks these stunts are already outrageous enough, until they see this guy wrap dumplings using the technique for rolling glutinous rice balls...

I remember my grandma making radish balls. She would crumble steamed buns, add chopped filling, then add some flour, shape them into balls, and fry them until golden brown. If you wanted meat, you could add some too. They were so delicious!
The pace has picked up; it should be nearing its end, around 350,000 words.
It looks pretty good, but there's too much fluff.
