Bandage fine tricks

When it comes to Sichuan cuisine, the first impression of the public is the red pepper and the stinging spicy taste, but in fact, traditional Sichuan dishes are not spicy - this is a problem that is easy to judge, because the introduction of pepper China is only a hundred years old, and before peppers entered China, the Sichuan area had a history of Han nationality living for thousands of years.

The real traditional Sichuan cuisine has hundreds of dishes and flavors, and there are also top-level clear soup dishes such as boiled cabbage. Now the spicy taste in the public impression has only risen for only a hundred years.

Since it is a Sichuan restaurant, there should be other non-spicy dishes to choose from, right?

With this in mind, Hachi didn't raise objections on the spot, but went to Yokohama Chinatown with Osamu Dazai, and walked into the Chinese restaurant with the signboard of "Kyuga Restaurant".

However, Xiao Ba didn't know how naive he really was until the moment he got the menu.

"...Why can't you find garlic eggplant and sweet roasted white in this Sichuan restaurant?!" Xiao Ba was shocked. She traveled to Sichuan with her best friend who is a Sichuan girl before, and she had never seen a Sichuan restaurant. There is nothing on this menu that she can eat!

Even in Sichuan, there are also people who don't know how to eat spicy food!

Is it a hidden menu?Thinking of the possibility that some restaurants have only one cookbook on the surface, but in fact there is another cookbook, which is full of kung fu dishes, which will only be brought out when customers suggest it or when regular customers come over. Xiao Ba He waved to the waiter and tried to maintain a smile and asked, "Excuse me, do you have garlic eggplant and sweet white roast?"

With a shaved head, the waiter who looked like a big mafia guy who was better than Chuancai shook his head without hesitation.

Xiaoba: "..."

Mr. Dazai next to him has already happily ordered dishes - all dishes strongly recommended by Oda Saku and him!

Dazai said so.

Xiaoba looked at the predictable line of red on the menu, and for the sake of his cat's life, he ordered a cup of yogurt to relieve the spicy before giving the menu to the waiter.

She learned two new things.

First, Mr. Oda turned out to be a party who doesn't like spicy food.

Second, Mr. Dazai is actually still angry, so he ordered such a table of spicy dishes to punish her...

The second thought was resolutely overturned by her after Osamu Dazai started to move his chopsticks.

After eating only one bean sprouts of boiled fish, Osamu Dazai immediately coughed until his eyes were red, as if he was about to cough up his lungs. Xiao Ba quickly picked up the yogurt he ordered and handed it to Osamu Dazai: "Mr. Dazai!? Are you okay!!"

——Drinking yogurt when being spicy is more effective than drinking plain water or ice water.

A small bean sprouts ate up a large cup of yogurt in a daze, and when Osamu Dazai regained his breath, Hachi didn't know what to say: "... Mr. Dazai, you... don't know how to eat spicy food? "

She always thought that Mr. Dazai brought her to the Sichuan restaurant to punish her, so he must know how to eat spicy food. Unexpectedly...

Xiao Ba stretched out his chopsticks towards the pot of boiled fish, carefully picked up a bean sprout floating on the surface that was not stained with red oil from beside the tempting fish fillet, put it in his mouth, and took a small bite .

The tingling spicy taste spread in the mouth.

But after the unbearable spicyness at first, the umami and sweetness of bean sprouts appeared on the tip of her tongue—it was incredible that she could still feel the sweetness of bean sprouts at that level of spiciness.

Normally, the tongue should be so hot that you can't feel it.

The chef who made this dish really has two brushes.

...Having said that, it's still very spicy!

In order to know that Mr. Dazai had already drank the spicy yogurt, Hachi had to pick up the ice water beside him and pour it down. It was too spicy!

Can't stand it!

The tongue is going to be scrapped!

The only consolation is that at least she is not as imageless as Mr. Dazai.

Mao Mao also had red eyes, a little red lips, and two drops of tears...

"Mr. Dazai, it turns out that you don't know how to eat spicy food better than me..." Xiao Ba with red eyes pulled the napkin, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said in a complicated tone, "Since you don't know how to eat spicy food, don't torture yourself like this Myself..."

"Huh? I thought Xiaoba would like spicy food very much. After all, compared with Chinese cuisine, Sichuan cuisine is also a major feature!" Osamu Dazai, who had recovered, said with a smile while drinking yogurt.

Xiaoba: "So it's not to punish me and make you worry, Mr. Dazai?"

Dazai Osamu: "..."

Xiaoba seems to be a little too clever.

He changed hands, and smiled with his chin propped: "How could it be? How could I be willing to punish Xiao Ba?"

Xiao Ba is skeptical about this.

Mr. Dazai's mouth, a deceitful ghost.

"I really can't bear it! After all, if Xiaoba doesn't like to eat, it's fine if he doesn't eat it!"

... Seems like that, right?

Then... Xiao Hachi looked at Osamu Dazai hesitantly, the traces of tears that had just been choked up by the pepper still remained on the young and handsome face, it was a rare moment of embarrassment for this person who always seems to be in control of everything with ease.

Seeing Osamu Dazai, he finally recovered from the spiciness just now, and when he was about to stretch his chopsticks towards the boiled fish, Xiao Hachi finally couldn't help but sighed: "... Mr. Dazai, I will remember to pay attention next time Take care of yourself, please don't demean your body anymore."

——In order to punish her for not taking good care of herself, she set an example to die to make her worry, so as to tell her that if she gets hurt, someone will definitely feel sad...

It is one of Dazai-san's characteristics that he cannot express his concern honestly.

"I don't understand what Xiaoba is talking about." Osamu Dazai said without changing his face, persistently trying to attack the boiled fish again.

... Well, it's her thinking too much.

Xiao Hachi resisted the urge to sigh again, and reached out to grab Osamu Dazai's wrist. The strength in his hand was not too strong, but the young man obediently followed her force and put down the chopsticks.

…It’s like facing a relative’s cat, as soon as you stretch out your hand to push him, he will fall down, revealing the feeling of his belly being touched by you.

Erasing the weird metaphors in his mind and the strange feelings brought about by it, Xiaoba called the waiter again: "Do you have ice powder and brown sugar glutinous rice cakes? If you have, please give us two."

This time there are, probably because these two are desserts rather than formal dishes, so the owner of this restaurant who seems to be very obsessed with spicy flavors chose to add them to the menu.

"Sounds like dessert."

"It's a snack." Xiao Ba let go of Osamu Dazai's wrist, and said, "If you haven't eaten, it's better not to eat spicy food all at once, your stomach will not be able to stand it. Let's eat some glutinous rice cakes to pad your stomach later— —if you really want to eat these dishes.”

Osamu Dazai showed an expression as if he was looking at a scourge: "Will my stomach hurt? I'm afraid of pain!" He seemed to have figured out something all of a sudden, and made a decision: "Then don't eat it!"

Xiaoba: "..."

On this table of dishes you ordered, only two bean sprouts have been moved, and nothing else has been touched, Mr. Dazai!

Waste is not such a waste method!

"...Why did you figure it out all of a sudden??" Xiao Babai couldn't figure it out.

It was Mr. Dazai who wanted to eat spicy food just now. She originally thought that Mr. Dazai was under a lot of pressure recently and needed to eat some unbearable spicy food to release the pressure-she was ready to risk her life to accompany Junzi.

The result... that's it? ? ?

"Because I suddenly feel better!" Osamu Dazai put his chin on one hand, looked at Xiaoba and smiled, "I have an appetite to eat, but I don't like spicy food, and I don't know how to eat spicy food either!"

Xiaoba: "..."

Mao Mao suspects that the black mud bandage spirit is teasing Mao Mao, but Mao Mao has no evidence.

So angry!

Xiaoba looked at this table of spicy dishes ordered by Osamu Dazai, and he had the urge to sigh all the anger of the past year:

——So why did two people who can't eat spicy food come to a Sichuan restaurant? ?

It is shameful to waste food!

"Don't worry about wasting anything, because I...ah, Oda, this way!" Osamu Dazai's eyes lit up, seeing the red-haired man who just walked in from the door, he immediately raised his hand and waved to him to go this way Come.

Xiao Hachi turned around and saw Oda Sakunosuke approaching, and immediately understood: "Mr. Dazai asked Mr. Oda to have dinner together?"

"Well, Odasaku's new book is coming out soon, so I treated him to dinner to celebrate."

Xiao Ba thought for a while: "Is it a temporary idea?"

"No, I've thought about it a long time ago—Xiao Ba still lacks some necessary knowledge." Osamu Dazai pointed to the lobby, motioning Xiao Ba to observe carefully, "I made an appointment here a long time ago. ——Reservations for the Kuga Restaurant, where Teruki Kuga, one of the ten outstanding chefs, is the chef, are hard to get."

Xiao Ba was silent for a while, and tentatively asked: "Then if I didn't remember to send the wallet here today..."

"Then I have to ask Kunikida-kun or Chuya to pay for it!"

Xiaoba: ...that's really the case! ?

When will Mr. Dazai be able to let go of Mr. Chuya's wallet—oh, and Mr. Kunikida's wallet.

It always felt like the answer wasn't what she wanted.

When Oda Sakunosuke was seated, Dazai Osamu's real dishes were also served. In addition to the spicy dishes served before, there were also some extra light dishes, which surprised Hachi: Obviously the dishes on this table are Dazai Mr. Oda prepared the dishes for Mr. Oda's celebration. She came here because she wanted to deliver a wallet. She should not be in the scope of Mr. Dazai's banquet, but these are obviously dishes that suit my taste...

The only explanation is that when they were on the way to the store here, Mr. Dazai informed Kuga restaurant to prepare it temporarily.

Judging from the dishes on the menu, it is obvious that the owner of this restaurant highly respects the spicy taste and completely disregards the taste of other schools of Sichuan cuisine. So how much effort did it take to convince them to add these dishes?

Xiaoba’s guess is right, Jiuwo Zhaoji—that is, the chef of this Jiuwo restaurant—is frying vegetables in the back kitchen depressedly: "Damn it, why do you have to serve such light dishes! Can you eat dishes without chili?! "

If it weren't for the great favor owed to that Dazai, he wouldn't cook this kind of dish even if he was killed!

After frying the last dish, Jiuga Zhaoji finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was about to see what the next dish on the menu was, and when he decided to put a lot of chili on it, he suddenly noticed that the dishes that he made specially for their light taste turned out to be Send it to the table that just asked if they have sweet roasted white in their store.

After thinking about it for a moment, Jiuga Zhaoji handed over the rest of the uncooked menu to other chefs, and walked out of the back kitchen.

He decided to see who was trying to order Sichuan dishes like Tian Shao Bai, which is not at all spicy, at his shop.
