Chapter 178 Fragrant White Rice

Now that he was already in the kitchen, Kagawa decided to just go for it.

Who cares! It’s more important to eat white rice first!
Steaming white rice does not require extra equipment or materials, water and a pot are enough, but...

Kagawa looked at the crowd outside the kitchen. She bet that if she really only made one pot of rice, she probably wouldn't be able to eat a single grain of rice.

So they quickly called their own members over, and the four of them worked together with the cafeteria's kitchen AI to prepare pots of rice.

Boil water, wash rice, pour water, repeat this three times, then Kagawa collects the water to a level that roughly touches the first knuckle of his finger and puts it on the heating device.

Seeing her quick and decisive movements, Chief Wu blinked in surprise and asked:
"Just... just like that? No seasonings? No other ingredients?"

Xiangchuan said helplessly:
"No, no, we're just making white rice. We don't have enough ingredients and seasonings, so we can't make anything else."

This was the truth. She wanted to make some stewed rice or something, but condiments like soy sauce and oyster sauce were in short supply, and she was helpless without the resources.

Chief Butler Wu looked at the pots on the heating equipment with some suspicion. He wanted to open his mouth several times, but finally gave up.

Forget it, there’s only a small amount of rice, so even if it goes bad, there won’t be much loss.

Obviously, he didn't think this would make a delicious meal.

However, at this time, Kagawa had already started thinking about some simple dishes to go with rice.

Although the lack of soy sauce and oyster sauce greatly reduces the range of choices, some simple home-cooked dishes can still be handled.

She quickly reported a bunch of ingredients to Chief Butler Wu.

When Chief Wu, who was not in a very high mood, heard the ingredients she mentioned, he instantly perked up: Are they going to do some follow-up processing on the rice? !
Butler Wu worked efficiently and effectively, and soon, fresh vegetables, chicken and beef were delivered to the kitchen.

Steaming rice is something that a few people can handle, but cooking, let alone cooking for an entire grade of students, is clearly beyond the capabilities of the four people in the Tongue Club.

So, everyone in Class 8 of Grade 1 were pushed into the kitchen by the four people from the Tongue Club.

If you want to eat, work!
Fortunately, after field training and "training" before the school anniversary, everyone in Class 8 of Grade 1 can easily handle simple food ingredients.

Wash vegetables, cut meat, and process chicken offal...

Although the techniques of the students in Class 8 of Grade 1 were much more immature than those of the Tongue Club, to the other classes who had no idea what was going on, it felt like they were watching a magic show.

Mandy, Fu Chengkai and others enjoyed the amazing looks from other students. They were very happy in their hearts, but they still said in a Versailles way:

"Alas, it's a pity that the chicken has been plucked, otherwise we could try to see if our chicken-killing skills have deteriorated. And it's a pity that there are no fish. I would like to scrape the scales off it again..."

The female classmates who were handling the food nearby rolled their eyes when they heard this: Almost all the people responsible for killing the fish were girls!
After handing over all the food processing work, Kagawa concentrated on seasoning and pickling.

The beef and chicken are marinated with scallions, ginger and pepper, ready for the final fire.

The first thing she had to deal with was the vegetables.

Smash the garlic and chop it into minced pieces. Kagawa picks up the pot, pours in oil and heats it skillfully. After the oil is hot, he quickly puts in the garlic and the washed vegetables with the roots removed.

The fourth production escort ship is in autumn. At this time, there are many kinds of other vegetables, but green vegetables are relatively scarce, not as abundant as in spring and autumn.

The green vegetables delivered to the cafeteria were also common cabbages. Kagawa sighed in her heart: If there was lard, it would be great. Fried cabbage with lard would definitely make people want to have a big bowl of rice. After she finished demonstrating the cooking operation to the kitchen AI, she turned around to deal with the soup.

Without seaweed, the tomato egg drop soup would seem a bit monotonous, so Kagawa simply improved the dough balls he had made before by reducing the amount of flour, adding two more eggs, and seasoning them a little heavier.

If the flavor is strong, then a lighter soup is naturally needed. She picked up some whole chickens, directed the kitchen AI to cut the chicken into small pieces, and then put it into the soup pot, threw in the chopped ginger and chopped green onions, as well as the mushrooms cleaned by the squad leader Lu Dai, and started to stew the soup.

After the soup and vegetables are prepared, it is time to prepare some dishes that are suitable for eating with rice.

After having mushroom chicken soup, fried mushroom chicken was eliminated from her list of options.

Teppanyaki beef is obviously a good choice. Although there is no soy sauce, there are fresh onions and peppers, so a simple version can still satisfy the taste buds.

Autumn is the season for vegetable harvest. Kagawa looked at the fresh vegetables in front of him, swallowed, and instantly had an idea.

Cut the cucumber into thin slices and stir-fry it with diced tomatoes. The only seasoning you need is garlic and salt. A simple stir-fry will make a sweet and sour, refreshing dish that goes well with rice.

For another dish, Kagawa chose minced meat eggplant, using minced beef instead of minced meat. She specifically chose a fatter part so that it would be easier to fry. Since there was no soy sauce, the seasoning was replaced with chili powder. After soaking the eggplant in salt water, heat the pan with oil, add garlic and minced meat, stir-fry until cooked, add chili powder and a few diced tomatoes, pour in the eggplant after the juice comes out, add salt and stir-fry for a while before serving.

The two new dishes, stir-fried cucumber and eggplant with minced meat, attracted the attention of the members of Class 8 around them. Everyone exchanged glances and nodded in tacit understanding.

After Kagawa finished cooking two dishes, she handed the follow-up work to the kitchen AI. She picked up the list of ingredients in the cafeteria and thought about what else she could do. After a while, she turned around and found that the two plates next to her were empty! Not even a drop of oil was left! She suddenly looked at the people in Class 8 who were processing the ingredients in an orderly manner in the kitchen. The cheeks of everyone, including Ouyang Yating and the other two, were moving. Kagawa turned his head to look at the other class members outside the kitchen. They seemed to know what Kagawa wanted to ask. The hundreds of people in the front row nodded in unison, which made Kagawa's mouth twitch.

I knew these guys wouldn't stay still.

Forget it, just consider it as some benefit for their help!

With the interruption from Class 8, Xiangchuan was too lazy to try anything new. After careful counting, he already had three dishes and two soups, which was about the same variety.

But in the end she still added a dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

Kagawa: It's so hard to eat white rice, so how can we miss this absolutely king dish to go with it!

[Beep——Timing of Steamer No. 1 ends]

When the voice of the kitchen AI sounded, Kagawa rushed over immediately, but there was someone faster than her, that was Chief Butler Wu.

He looked at the big round pot with a burning gaze, which made Kagawa afraid to move forward.

However, although Chief Butler Wu was excited, he still did not forget basic etiquette. As long as Chef Kagawa did not make any move, he would naturally not overstep the line.

Kagawa stood in front of the steamer, took a deep breath, and directed the kitchen AI to open the lid.

The steam mixed with the strong aroma of rice hit me in the face, but it was immediately sucked away by the exhaust fan. Even so, it did not prevent the aroma of steamed rice from attracting the attention of the entire kitchen.

Looking at the white rice made from new rice in front of him, Kagawa was so moved that tears kept flowing into his mouth.

She picked up a small bowl, scooped a small spoonful with a spoon, and then put it into her mouth with chopsticks.

When the familiar aroma of rice filled his mouth, Kagawa's eyes welled up with tears.

This is white rice! Fragrant white rice!
