277. So I am not a chef and also have no talent
[O spirit of fire, show your joyful figure!~]
As the sound of chanting incantations that was completely different from Elvish language continued, the red light on the burning stone gradually began to highlight. The power of the elements that had become dead after leaving the volcanic zone became active, and the high temperature was emitted.
"Oh! - You are the first human being I have seen to do such a thing, and I only taught you for two minutes."
The clan leader's daughter, Miss Juka, came over instead of her father who was going to a clan meeting to deal with Xing Ke and others who wanted to borrow the kitchen. She saw that Xing Ke had learned how to make a fire with a burning stone in just a few minutes, and she praised him without hesitation.
word.
But she still knew how much content there was in his words. After all, this underage elf girl had only seen so many humans, let alone magicians.
"That's okay. Even if a magician who is proficient in elemental magic research cannot do it as naturally as you, it is still very simple to forcibly activate the elemental energy in it."
Please be humble for now.
"Hmph! - Just accept it when you say you are awesome. Do you think we didn't see you create the scene of the sun in an understatement?"
Fatanya, who was placing the washed dishes aside, complained disdainfully.
"Little girl, you can't say that. You can break a branch, but can you put a branch through the hole of a needle? This kind of technical work is much more difficult than rubbing a fireball."
"Humph, what are you going to do? Don't tell me that you are just lighting a fire for fun. The burning stone cannot be canceled within an hour."
"Um - this?
Zhenshiro, Louise, is there anything you want to eat? I wish the elf ladies could eat vegetarian food."
“Omelet rice!”
"Omelet!"
"You two... don't you know that eggs are also meat dishes? Forget it, although I just finished lunch, today is a rare opportunity to show you my skills!~"
He took off his coat and threw it to Louise, then rolled up his sleeves.
First, boil water in a small pot on the stove, then set it aside for later use.
Next came the main ingredients. Xingqi took out some random tomatoes from the supermarket that day from his storage bag.
Because time has not passed in the storage space, the ingredients are of course fresh.
Soaking it in hot water is not to clean it or anything, but to facilitate peeling.
When Xing Ji put the ingredients in his pocket, he had already done it with the [Purification Technique]. Magic is very practical for such trivial matters.
"Sister Farr, isn't this the Sexi fruit? But why is it red?"
Juka made this judgment after carefully observing the shape of the tomatoes.
"...Maybe it's because the growth environment in another world is different? For example, places like rock crevices or near magma where only the setting sun can shine."
Fatanya also
"Hey, hey, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. Tomatoes do sometimes turn blue, but that's just a mutation. They turn red when exposed to the sunset. It's weird, right?
And how can plants grow in a place like magma?!"
"Yes! Why not?"
The two sisters asked very strangely.
"Okay, you win."
"Is this strange? Isn't there a kind of red-leaf licorice growing in the Fire Dragon Mountains in Romania?"
"Someone is making a fuss."
Xingke didn't want to say anything anymore, even these two were laughing at himself.
But then I thought about it, isn't there a lot of settings like the genius Dibao who absorbs the fire element all year round in various novels? Why can't I still turn around now?
Common sense in this world is unbelievable in another world. No matter how many things you see, you should still be surprised.
It seems that after staying on Earth in the home star era for more than ten years, certain common sense concepts have been assimilated a lot.
"Would you like to try one? Let's see if the [Sercy Fruit] and tomatoes you know are the same thing."
He handed the fresh tomatoes without boiling water to the two elf girls in this world. They hesitated and accepted them.
"Just eat it directly. I have a friend who eats this as a staple food every day."
Without any further hesitation, the two elves took a small bite...and were splashed with juice.
"Haha...you are also said to be experts in vegetarianism, but you can't even figure out how much water is contained in fruits?
Laughing to death... Oops."
Before he finished speaking, Louise kicked him in the calf.
"Giss, that's enough..."
As he spoke, he took out the handkerchief from his arms and handed it to the elf sisters.
"..."
By the way, you were still doubting that the elves were demons just now? Why did you betray the revolution after just one meal?
"Okay, you two, I apologize, it was just a little joke, how do tomatoes taste?"
"Just stop it. If this happens next time, I will fight hard even if I know I can't beat you..."
"Sister Farr! Don't be like this, Mr. Geese doesn't mean any harm."
Quickly stopping Far, who was about to fight, the two of them took another bite of the tomatoes, sucking the soup into their mouths without letting go.
Then both of their eyes lit up.
"The sour taste...almost non-existent?!"
"But the taste and texture are very similar to [Sercy Fruit]?"
"It seems the answer is out."
Original tomatoes that have not undergone artificial breeding and breeding. This is the truth about Sirsi fruit.
………………
While I was talking, the skin of the tomatoes was wrinkled and apparently separated.
First take a small pot, pour appropriate olive oil (bring your own), put it on the stone stove that was just on standby and heat it slowly, then peel off the skin of the tomatoes, remove the seeds and put them in the pot
.
In the following time, Xingke slowly stirred the pot under the attention of the four girls. This time was definitely not long, but it was not short either. During this period, Mashiro first ran away to observe the characteristics of the patriarch's house.
furniture, and then Louise ran to be with Mashiro.
They had already seen what Xingji was going to do.
Only two patient elf sisters smelled the slightly sour smell overflowing from the pot and started to salivate.
As the low-temperature fire element slowly licks the bottom of the pot, the already boiling tomato sauce is gradually evaporating excess water, and the sauce is getting thicker and thicker.
Eventually, when the sauce became thick enough to stick to a spoon, the elemental activity of the burning stone also dropped, turning back into its original white hard stone.
Put the pot on the table, take out the Nishiyama mature vinegar, Hokkaido sea salt and Matsuba brand sugar that you have prepared. While the tomato sauce has not cooled down, melt these ingredients into the red sauce according to your preference.
into the juice, stir evenly.
When he felt that the material had been mixed, Xing Ke took out his wand——
"[Coolice]!"
White mist appeared from the front of the wand, surrounding the steaming pot.
"Just wait a moment, the tomato sauce will taste better after it cools down."
Xingke smiled and said to the two young ladies in the audience who persisted until the end.
"[Tomato Sauce]? Is that the name of this dish? But isn't this main ingredient called tomatoes?"
"Strictly speaking, this is not a dish. It can only be regarded as a condiment. But it tastes good on its own, but it's just a bit monotonous.
As for why it’s called tomato sauce...just think of this fruit as her full name is [Tomato·Tomato], tomato is the family name. She also has a sister named [Cherry Tomato·Tomato].”
The white freezing air was released smoothly, and the bright reddish-brown tomato sauce with a jelly-like texture appeared in front of everyone in the small pot.
"By the way, there is another procedure——
[Goldpol]!"
From the surface of the ketchup, a golden light shot up into the sky and lasted until it reached the roof. After the golden light dissipated, little flashes of light could still appear around the ketchup.
The elf sisters, who were looking forward to it at first, looked confused when they saw this operation.
Only Mashiro, who rushed over after seeing the special effects, understood this joke:
Chapter completed!
