ăRofas-san, you should only eat this much at a time. If you put a lot of it into your mouth, you end up like that. Also, I recommend mixing this wasabi with soy sauce and dipping your sushi in it.ă
I said. I mixed the grated wasabi into the soy sauce, then took a piece of sushi with my hand, dipped it into the soy sauce slightly, and ate it.
It was difficult to determine how much wasabi one should spread onto the sushi directly for beginners whoâve never had them before. Therefore, I introduced the wasabi-soy sauce method instead.
ăFwah⊠I see. Mhm, so thatâs what it was. Itâs dangerous to eat all of this at once. Thatâs the same thing with strong alcohol. Your throat would burn if you drink a bunch of carbonated alcohol at once. Thatâs what this, uh, wasabi, is like.ă
Speaking of which, alcohol⊠Since he compared the wasabi to alcohol rather than things like chili peppers, does that mean there arenât many spices around here?
Or was it simply because it was Rofas-san making the comparison?
ăKirika-chan, Kurtz-kun, you might find the wasabi to be too spicy and thus hard to eat, so be careful. There are people back in my hometown that also donât like it, so if you donât like it either, you can eat the sushi without using any.ă
Rofas-san scooped up only a bit of takowasa this time and ate it.
ăHah⊠The raw kraken has this chewy texture. Itâs so tasty this way too. Also, *gulp gulp*, phew. Just like you said, Yuuri, it goes well with alcohol. The spiciness is great too.ă
Right?
Spicy food and strongly flavored food go hand in hand with alcohol.
âŠAlthough, I barely went drinking after I got married. My husband had said,ăWomen shouldnât drink alcohol at home. So indecent.ăSo, I havenât drank much alcohol since.
Thankfully, I wasnât that fond of alcohol to begin with, so I didnât feel like drinking even though the person in front of me was enjoying them quite a lot. Also, I had to pretend to be a child, so I couldnât exactly drink.
Mhm. I didnât like alcohol, but I still wanted to drink some again one day.
SomedayâŠ
I know, Iâll celebrate when I reach level 10 by having some alcohol. Letâs do that!
ăYuuri-oneechan, um, the sushi? Kirika wants to have them again. Um, Kirika likes the smoked sushi.ă
Mhm, mhm. Sushi with meat was popular among children after all.
One day, I should make hamburg steak sushi or the standard tamago sushi for them.
ăBefore, I hated vegetables, but now I love them. The spring onions are so good. Eating them together like this tastes even betterâŠă
Kurtz-kun placed the thinly sliced spring onions and smoked meat on top of the sushi rice and ate them altogether.
ăUwah, Kurtz-kun, how smart. Thatâs right, they taste good when theyâre eaten together. How about we call this one âKurtz Sushiâ?ă
ăKurtz Sushi? Hehe. Kurtz Sushi, I see.ă
Kurtz-kun looked happy.
Mhm. Sushi like this doesnât exist in this world, so nobody would say anything about us naming the dishes ourselves.
ăThen, Kirika will call this one Kirika Sushi!ă
Kirika-chan ate the smoked bird meat together with the kraken.
Um, could she chew through that? Was she going to be okay?
ăIn that case, this will be Rofas Sushi!ă
Rofas-san spread the takowasa onto the sushi rice and ate it.
ăAh, but that has its own name. Itâs called Takowasa Sushi.ă
In Japan, thereâs a gunkan-maki topped with takowasa, so technically speaking, we already had sushi with takowasa.
ăW-w-what did you sayâŠă
Rofas-san looked disappointed, but for him to compete against children so seriously⊠He really was a child!
Still, if he was a father, heâd be the type that would have fun playing together with his children.
It would be better than a strict father⊠Rofas-san seemed like the type of father who would act strict when necessary, but would care for his children with kindness. Heâd probably raise some good children.
ăPutting just a bit onto the rice is perfect. Yuuri-san, what is this dish called again?ă
Bryce-kun asked me after he ate a piece of sushi with the wasabi soy sauce.
ăAh, the wasabi?ă
ăWasabi? That is the first time Iâve ever heard of such a vegetable. Maybe itâs not a vegetable, but a type of spice?ă
Hm? Is wasabi a vegetable or a spice? Um, wasabi is wasabi. Which one is it?
ăI got these from Rofas-san.ă
I took the ungrated leaves on the kitchen counter and showed them to Bryce-kun.
ăEh? Arenât these antidote herbs?ă
Bryce-kun looked at them confused.
ăThey look similar, but theyâre different. Those are losing antidote herbs. My brother grabbed them by mistake, but I never expected them to taste this good. My brotherâs mistakes can be a good thing sometimes.ă
Saga-san said and laughed.
ăThatâs right. Rofas-san is helpful sometimes.ă
Bryce-kun nodded.
Huh? Wasnât what he said slightly different in meaning? What Bryce-kun just said.
ăHm? Right, Iâm useful, right?ă
He wasnât praising you!
ăStill, another losing ingredientâŠÂ Status open.ă
