Chapter 6 The Devil Eater and Disposal of Out-of-season Ingredients

?

Seniors don't have to come to school today.

Chitanda was alone, and couldn't borrow the key to the home economics classroom, so she became a housekeeper as soon as get out of class was over.

When she was changing her indoor shoes at the entrance, her cell phone rang suddenly.

The girl picked it up and found that the caller ID was Luo Zhen, she couldn't help but panic.

result……

"I just now..." She was holding the phone, her forehead was sweating, "Did I hang up by accident?"

This girl is still pretty, and it is easy to use the mobile phone badly when she is nervous.

She quickly called back.

After only two rings, Luo Zhen answered, "Chitanda, I'm sorry, I called you at this time, are you still in the classroom?"

"It's okay, senpai." Chitanda bowed across the air, "I've already reached the entrance."

"That's good, can you do me a favor?"

"You say."

"Go to the izakaya and open for business. If someone special passes by, try to delay the time for me."

special person?

delay?

Chitanda was so dazed that she forgot to ask the question.

As a result, Luo Zhen on the other side of the phone yelled "Hello...Hello..." for a long time, thinking that the other party was no longer listening, so he hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy tone of "beep beep" on the other end of the phone, the girl finally came to her senses.

But she felt that it would be impolite to call back, so she decided to finish the part she had understood—"Go to the izakaya, it's open"—and then finish it.

She puts on her shoes nervously and goes to the bike rack.

It is not too far to cycle from school to No. [-], and it is not the off-duty time, so there are not many cars and it will not be crowded.

Chitanda rode all the way, and soon arrived at the place.

The girl opened the store door, first walked into the back kitchen, did some scrubbing, cooked miso soup, and then walked out of the door and hung the noren curtain with "one two".

Next it was time to hang the lanterns, using tall bamboo poles as usual.

After doing all this, she let out a long breath.

At this moment, the sound of clogs suddenly came from behind the girl.

"Is Luo Zhen not here?" The masculine male voice came from an old man.

He has white beard and hair, cut scars around his eyes, wearing a men's kimono, with a family crest embroidered on his shoulders. He is obviously old, but he can see the undulating shape of his muscles supporting the clothes.

It feels a little scary...

However, it was a little familiar.

Chitanda frowned slightly, but couldn't figure out where this sense of familiarity came from.

"Are you?" she asked subconsciously.

"This is Nakiri Senzaemon, the 'Demon King of Food'." The answer was a woman in black, wearing sunglasses, who looked like a secretary. "At the same time, he is also the president of Totsuki Academy." Handsome, this izakaya can be regarded as managed by him."

I remembered!

After Chitanda joined the neighborhood committee, she read a lot of gourmet magazines. Of course, this "Demon King of Food" has been friends for a long time.

She looked at the other party in surprise, holding back questions in her heart, not knowing whether to ask or not.

Senzaemon showed a "scary" smile: "Is Luo Zhen not here?"

Chitanda shook her head, and replied, "Senior Luo has a workplace tour today, and entrusted me to do the business."

"Dai, for, business, business?" Senzaemon repeated word by word, "That is to say, he entrusted you with the name of 'one and two', thinking that you are a manager who can take care of himself."

Chitanda never thought about this.

She froze for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

Senzaemon didn't say much, and walked into the izakaya.

He was too big for the high stool in front of the bar, so he came to a table and moved a chair out.

Even so, he looked a little "abused" as he sat there.

Chitanda thought for a while, then pulled out another chair, placed the two side by side, and asked the other to sit down.

"The service is really good, much more serious than Luozhen." Senzaemon nodded in satisfaction, "This is a bit like a restaurant opening to welcome customers~"

"You're too much." Chitanda replied cautiously.

Senzaemon nodded and picked up the menu.

After a few seconds, he asked with great interest, "Tiramisu Brownie, what kind of dish is this?"

Chitanda replied immediately: "You should know that brownie cake is a kind of heavy oil cake, but the difference between it and ordinary heavy oil cake is that it is usually thinner and firmer, not as loose as ordinary cakes. Our president tried We improved this dessert by changing the filling into tiramisu, so that the texture is between cake and biscuit, and the taste has both the sweetness of fudge and the softness of cake.”

"So that's it, it's an innovative cuisine..."

"Yes."

"I noticed that there is also dragon fruit coconut milk cake, which seems to be a new recipe."

"Yes."

"Can I eat it now?"

"of course can."

Since the duel between Huaxia Cuisine and Innovative Cuisine, Yi Er has prepared these two desserts every day, but the supply is limited, and there are only five servings of each.

Luo Zhen's purpose is to sell less than to waste.

After all, izakaya is a dessert room, and there are not many little girls who like it.

Chitanda acted immediately, took the two desserts out of the refrigerator, and put them on a plate.

Senzaemon leaned over and observed seriously.

a long time……

"Interesting." He commented approvingly, "The dragon fruit coconut milk cake must be Rozen's idea, not to mention, this tiramisu brownie is ingenious."

As he spoke, he opened his mouth wide, took a bite, and chewed carefully.

Soft and hard, very interesting.

It's a pity that the author of the recipe is very imaginative, but the seasoning is slightly inferior, and the ratio of butter and brown sugar is wrong.

Also, if you use corn cake flour, it will be better than pure cake flour.

There are many similar small problems.

Senzaemon sighed, somewhat disappointed.

He turned his attention to the dragon fruit coconut milk cake. He saw that the color was gorgeous but uniform. It can be seen that the chef used a high level of skill during the production process to grind the pulp finely and evenly.

It should be written by Luo Zhen.

Thinking of this, Senzaemon couldn't help raising his psychological expectations, carefully picked up a piece, and put it in his mouth.

In an instant, he regretted——

It should not be touched directly with fingers!

Dragon Fruit Coconut Juice Cake is eaten chilled and has an excellent flavor, and any slightest temperature will make it lose its color.

Even so, it's still delicious.

Many people think that the taste of dragon fruit is not strong, but a light, faint fruity aroma. Some people even think that it is the taste of hot water, and the taste is not enough.

Moreover, it is cold in nature, so it feels astringent when eaten.

But this Dragon Fruit Coconut Milk Cake is completely different, it tastes sweet and smooth.

Just like the breeze blowing against the body, the clothes were blown away in an instant.

Clothes are torn!

The so-called "cracking of the skirt" means that when eating a dish that suits one's heart's desire, the clothes are inexplicably pulled apart, revealing a bronzed and strong body.

However, Senzaemon didn't expect that even if it wasn't a fresh dish, it would still turn out like this.

He pondered for a moment, then said: "This tiramisu brownie and dragon fruit coconut milk cake are on the same menu, it is unreasonable."

Chitanda's expression changed instantly, and she grabbed the menu.

"This is a recipe that the seniors of the club have thought out with all their heart. It is a real insult for you to talk nonsense here." She said with obvious hostility, "Please go out immediately after paying the bill!"

Really newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

However, the honorifics are still used at this time, and she also said "please pay after the bill", the little girl's character is too serious.

Senzaemon couldn't help but nodded approvingly.

From the point of view of food alone, he thinks that the comment just now is not wrong. In terms of taste, the two desserts are not at the same level at all.
