Chapter 100: Special Hospitality (Part 1)
Time went back half an hour ago.
Nakiri House kitchen.
A bodybuilder in a suit, standing in the spacious kitchen with his arms folded, watching a female chef preparing food for the dinner.
"Miss Ryoko, I didn't expect you to come." Gin Doshima said cheerfully.
The female chef was wearing white chef's clothes and was doing traditional Japanese cuisine. She didn't raise her head when she heard this, "I came here today because of work."
"A coincidence, I'm also working."
Gin Dojima was not surprised and smiled, "After all, it's an inspection. Did you Igo decide to recommend him as a candidate?"
"There are too few non-special chefs who have learned the heart of the chef." The female chef said lightly. "This time Igo and Yuanyue have a special course collaboration. In addition to a real visiting lecturer, they also need two associate lecturers."
"You Yuanyue has already decided on the candidate?" After being busy, the female chef finally looked up at him.
"certainly!"
"The White Knight at the dining table, Si Yingshi." Dojima said with his arms folded, "One of the top ten masters in this class has realized the heart of the chef. With his cooking skills, it is no problem to be an associate lecturer, but his ability..."
Gin Dojima suddenly became embarrassed. He couldn't say that the chief of the Tenth Master of the Totsuki was actually negative and was particularly afraid of trouble.
"By the way, have you asked him about this?"
The female chef stopped talking.
...
Shortly after Erina Nakiri sat down, the "Demon King of Food" also arrived.
However, what surprised everyone was that Gin Dojima actually followed General Totsuki, kneeling in the lower position of Nakiri Sensaemon with a cheerful smile.
"Select the food."
Nakiri Szaemon turned his head and knelt at the door, saying the maid in a traditional kimono.
The maid saluted, quit quietly, and closed the door.
"Huh?" Nakiri Sensaemon glanced at the long table, and then he realized that Xia Yu was not there. Seeing this, Hisa Shinto said, "I'll call him, he's borrowing the kitchen of the main house all afternoon."
Xindo Hisazi opened the door and left.
"Are you one of the qualified people today?" Gin Dojima stared at the red-haired hedgehog's head curiously, and vaguely felt that the child's outline was somewhat familiar.
"yes."
Yukihei was not nervous at all. He was born with a big heart. He was still holding his chin in front of him thinking about the details that Xia Yu gave to 'transformed egg bibimbap'. He was interrupted and just scratched his head, "Uncle, can you serve the food? I sat here for an afternoon. To be honest, I was quite hungry."
"Haha, wait, you will definitely be satisfied with the rich dishes!" Gin Doshima was stunned and immediately burst into laughter.
"The common people are common people, and they don't understand the rules of the dining table!"
Opposite the long table, Erina Nakiri looked at Yukihiro Tsuma very contemptuously, lacking interest in him. In contrast, Natsu Yu who defeated her on the front halberd and Maki Morita who presented the "King Crab Thick Egg Burner" truly aroused her interest.
For a moment, Erina and Maki Morita were the sound of talking in a low voice.
Nakiri Ssaemon was closing his eyes to rest.
Gindoshima was curious about looking at Kohei Tsubasa and Maki Morita, and was looking forward to the appearance of another boy. After all, he was called to the dinner by Totsuki tonight, and actually had other secret work.
Soon, the sliding door opened, and Xia Yu and Shinto Hirosa came in one after another.
Everyone in the room looked up and their eyes gathered on Xia Yu.
"Hello, Mr. Dojima!"
This was the second time Xia Yu saw Gin Dojima. He said hello very well, and Gin Dojima responded with a smile.
"Here, here, sit here!" Yukihei Shin-maru waved to him in the seat.
Seeing that Erina Nakiri took the position next to Maki Morita, Natsuyu simply sat between him and Gin Doshima according to the invitation of Tsuma Yukihiro.
As soon as he sat down, several kimono maids served dishes one after another.
This is a traditional Japanese banquet, which should be mainly Japanese cuisine.
Two maids opened the bamboo curtains of the teahouse, and the scene of the courtyard in dusk slowly unfolded, and the orange-red sunset fell on the pond, making the picture quiet.
The other maids were holding lacquerware containers that looked like works of art and placed them gently on the table.
The first thing that came was a plate of exquisite appetizers for each person.
The appetizer is actually an appetizer. In a small vessel, it is filled with seafood stock, a piece of mugwort, sesame and kudzu root, and is placed in the center of the container with sea urchin, shepherd's purse and wasabi sauce.
Xia Yu carefully picked up the tofu and chewed it with sea urchin and swallowed it. He was immediately shocked and confused.
No one else said anything, including Yukihei Toma, who stared at the plate in front of him.
After a while, the appetizers were almost used. A beautiful kimono woman with a maid looked like a maid applauded gently, and another group of maids presented the dishes and took away the appetizer utensils.
Next is the platter, but this time I finally have something to fill my stomach.
On a dark red wooden tray, there were three antique lacquerware. The rice was in the small black lacquer bowl on the left hand, only a ball of fists, clearly black and white. The soup was in the right hand, and it was also filled with a small black bowl, white and very thick.
As for the sashimi plate, called "head plate", it is placed at the front of the tray, with crystal clear sashimi, paired with bonito flakes, perilla buds and green leaves, and is beautifully decorated.
Xia Yu sniffed a scent of the smell and murmured in his heart: "Snake Sashimi?"
“What is this white miso soup?”
Everyone's style!
After eating the appetizer, Xia Yu realized a very natural Japanese style. The feeling was very strange. The other party was obviously a "chef heart". Even if he only ate the appetizer, his mind would be inexplicably quiet and he would have no distractions.
"Well, delicious!"
Yukihei's surprise voice came from beside him. He swallowed a few pieces of sashimi in one bite, his eyes shining.
Xia Yu also moved his chopsticks, picked up a piece of sashimi, dipped it in some soy sauce, and sent it to his mouth.
A thin piece of fish melts in your mouth.
Tasty!
"Snapper?" Xia Yu savored it carefully, "This kind of meat is definitely not an ordinary fish."
"This is the cherry snapper sashimi..."
Erina Nakiri ate a few bites of sashimi and suddenly said: "This kind of snapper is a migratory snapper caught in the inland sea... About February of every year, the snapper that lives in the ocean in the winter will go from Kyushu to the beach, pass through the Kii waterway and the Toyogo waterway to the north and enter the Seto Inland Sea. From spring to autumn, the snapper will shuttle through Naruto Strait and Akashi Strait."
"This cherry snapper is as beautiful as cherry blossoms, with a umami flavor. It is loved by thousands of people. It is comparable to Akashi snapper. It is a famous product in the cuisine and is expensive."
Although she did not explain to anyone specifically, she was obviously taking care of Xia Yu, Toma Yuki and Maki Morita.
These three people have eaten ordinary snapper, but these high-end products such as cherry snapper and Akashi snapper may not be the case.
Erina Nakiri then drank a sip of miso soup, her eyes lit up, "This main soup is very irritating to appetite. Yes, that's right, it's just white miso soup to cook gluten and taro seedlings!"
Xia Yu listened silently, ate a few slices of cherry bream sashimi, picked up a ball of rice and swallowed it. Then he slowly drank a sip of miso soup.
Chapter completed!
