Itâs now been 7 days since the Goblin subjugation
Itâs late at night, and weâre in the innâs kitchen.
As promised to Fran, Iâm here to cook her some food. Since the sight of a lightly floating sword cooking would certainly cause a commotion, Fran is here with me too.
The cooks said âIf itâs late at night after the Dining Room is closed, then thereâs no problemâ, so weâve properly received permission. With this, Iâll give my all at cooking!
ăChan Chan Chara Chachacharara~[M1]ă
ăChanchan?ă
ăChanchara, Chan Chan Chan~ă
ă?ă
ăWelcome! Itâs time for Otherworldly Cooking!ă
ăOh~~?ă
Not understanding the meaning of my words yet still guessing the mood, Fran started clapping.
ăThe first meal today is⊠This!ă
ăMeat?ă
ăCorrect! Prepared for you today is minced meat from Rock Bison and Crash Boar: 30ă of each!ă
Moreover, Rune Tulip bulbs that resemble onions, Golden Chicken eggs, breadcrumbs, and all sorts of spices were also prepared.
ăThen, knead this Fran.ă
ăNn.ă
ăYou should make use of what you have, right?ă
ăWith this: able to eat Teacherâs cooking every day.ă
ăConsidering your Titles, you should also be able to make good dishes.ă
ăCanât make what I donât know.ă
ăAh, thatâs right after all.ă
What Fran wants to eat is Earthâs cooking, and no one but me can make that. Even if similar cooking is possible, in the end the degree of refinement would end up different.
So, with that I went on to chop the Rune Tulip bulbs. For the sake of cutting them into fine pieces, Iâve decided to use Auraă»Blade.
So far, I had used myself after taking a thorough wash through boiling and purification magic, but⊠Still, I had used Demonic Poison Fang for slaying Demonic Beasts earlier, so a bit of anxiety still remains. Until now Franâs shown no sign of bad conditions, but that doesnât necessarily mean itâs safe.
The finely chopped Rune Tulips were carefully stir-fried in the frying pan.
ăMix together the minced meats, then make an onion-shaped ball. After that, add spices and keep on mixing.ă
ăLeave it to me.ă
I also mixed the remaining minced meat with Telekinesis. When that was completed, 60ă worth of special-hamburger base was completed.
Honestly, I had a feeling that I went overboard, but⊠When itâs put into Dimensional Storage it wonât go bad, so itâs fine.
ăNow letâs start grilling the hamburgers.ă
ăNn.ă
Even using an enormous oven with Magic to shorten the process, it couldnât be done in one go.
ăIn the meantime, the next step is to cut up all of these vegetable-like ingredients and put them into a stew.ă
ăNn.ă
ăThen, Iâll also begin cutting.ă
The ingredients besides Demonic Beast flesh were arranged plentifully.
Affected by the ambiance of the town market, I now realize that I may had gotten a bit carried away. After following my instincts, I got completely swept up in buying ingredients⊠A large earthenware pot of Miso and Soy Sauce alongside a giant bag of spices were also bought. After that, several super-extra-large sized pots got purchased.
Because of that, another 100,000Gorudo ended up being used. Ha⊠HahahaâŠ
â No, it was for the sake of making delicious meals for Fran, so it was necessary!
ăNow we add some water⊠And next, weâll throw in the spices.ă
I added heat with Magic while using Telekinesis and Magic to shred the vegetables like a mixer. When finished, it was a specially-made demi-glace. It smelt good, to say the least.
After that, tomato sauce, consomme soup, chicken bouillon and so forth were also made. At this point Iâve started instructing Fran on the ways to use the ingredients.
ăGuro, guro.ă
ăMhm. Keep stirring, just like that.ă
Around the time the third batch of hamburgers were cooked, all the soup and sauces were completed.
Good, good. If there are matching seasonings at the market, then Iâm able to make any cuisine!
I cover the hamburgers in demi-glace sauce and toss them into Dimensional Storage one after another. The plan is to have them available regardless of the time and place while still steaming hot.
In the same way, tomato juice and japanese ponzu flavored ones were made. Tyrant Tiger Stew, Deep Fried Blast Turtle, Dopple Snake Kabayaki, Fried Stone Spider, Stewed Rock Bison Tongue, Ginger Air-grilled Crash Boar, Sausages,Bacon, Jerky, Meat Miso and other such dishes were completed as well.
ăAlright. The meat dishes are almost finished.ă
ăNn!ă
Before long, dawn broke. Weâll end here today and continue tomorrow.
âââ
And so, weâre once again in the kitchen.
Today weâll be doing fish-based cooking. â Well, even if I say that, I donât have any fish ingredients other than the Madness Fish meat. I think Iâll turn it into
Nitsuke, Shioyaki and Tempura.
I also considered making some into MeuniĂšre, but as expected a Japanese should eat Japanese cuisine! Er⊠Not that Iâd be eating it, of course.
Ah, by the way, about the poisonous swamp: it seems that our actions turned into some sort of ghost story about a suddenly-vanishing poisonous swamp. Ms. Nell knew that we did something, but it seems that she wasnât the type of person who would spread that information to other Adventurers. Maybe we overdid itâŠ
Oops, while thinking the Nitsuke finished. Itâs got a good color to it.
Well, thatâs about all for the main cooking, but weâre not fished yet.
Next are the side dishes. Letâs start off with soups. Weâll be re-using the soup-like things made yesterday, but this time weâll fine-tune them with salt and pepper as well as throw in some other ingredients. A Consomme Soup with SausagesâŠÂ Wouldnât that be delicious?
Furthermore, making use of the Madness Fish bones, the chinese Fish Dashi Soupwas also completed.
Of course, I didnât forget about Salad and Stir-Fried Vegetables either. The nutritional balance has to be enforced with an iron grip with Fran in her growth period. Related to that, her current state is quite worrying. Lately sheâs gotten somewhat better-rounded, but compared to the other kids in town she still looks feeble. Furthermore, it feels like her height is little short⊠Meals are important, no matter what.
ăNn?ă
ăNo, itâs nothing. Next are the staple foods.ă
Somehow, I had made light of Aressaâs market, as today I found myself surprised that even Rice was sold there. In this area, the Northern and Southern regions appear to meet, so Rice and Wheat-based items are both eaten.
The Rice is cooking quietly, in several earthenware pots we bought for its sake.
Of course, flour is also being made use of. Udon, Bread, Naan and Okonomiyaki, all such carbohydrate-parade foods were around. Bread could be found in the standard baguette type, but there were also the rectangular type that Japanese people love.
We also made Chinese Noodles, since Lye Water was also at the market.
I donât think that any mistakes were made when kneading the noodles, since the process of making them went well because of the strange water. And so, Ramen,Yakisoba, and more could be made.
Now, since we have rice and NaanâŠÂ That has to be made.
ăWell then, next I was thinking of making a special dish.ă
ăSpecial?ă
Hey, hey, your expectations are a bit too high if your eyes are gleaming like that⊠Well, I guess Iâll just need to do by best, huh?
ăWhat is it?ă
ăItâs a special-hyper-ultra dish! Its name is ââ Curry! ă
ăKuuree? What is it?ă
ăFufufufu. Well, youâll see.ă
Curry was my favorite food back on Earth. Here, I donât eat â not even a single sign of appetite has shown up thus far. But the feeling of wanting Fran to eat delicious food is there instead. Therefore: Curry needs to be made. We canât go on without it.
ăBreak the spices like this.ă
ăBeautiful.ă
ăItâs for the sake of making a delicious curry.ă
ăCook it?ă
ăRight. While blending it, you keep on cooking.ă
ăHmmm.ă
One hour later, 3 business sized pots filled to the brim with curry sit in front of us.
In the beginning, we finished with just a normal sized pot. Spices are expensive, after all.
However, after Fran taste tested the first batch, she kept on eating it at a dreadful pace. In the blink of an eye, we ran out. Afterwards, upon Franâs continuous demands, all of the remaining spices were put towards making curry in vast amounts.
Sweet, mild, and scathing flavors were made, and the vegetables and meat were altered to fit. Even if I say so myself, theyâre masterpieces. If we took them to Japan, I have absolute confidence that it would sell.
ăI was born to meet this dish.ă
ăYou like it that much?!ă
ăThanks Teacher.ă
ăThat feels like the most emotion-loaded âThanksâ Iâve received up until nowâŠă
I have to make sure that Fran doesnât eat only Curry from now onâŠ
Counting all the dishes made in these 2 days, ~2000 portions should have been made. In other words, weâve made over 1 yearâs worth of food. However, contrary to her appearance Fran is a big eater, so the chances that itâll disappear sooner than that is quite high.
Well, with this there wonât be any concerns about meals for a while at least.
ăFor now: second serving of curry.ă
ăBut you just ateâŠă
ăPlease.ă
ă⊠It canât be helped. Only one more serving, alright?ă
ăNn!ă
Fran exercises properly, so just one more shouldnât hurt⊠Right?
