Eternal food paradise

Inui Hinata briefly explained the direction of the project, smiled, and clapped her hands again, "Then, let's take action. The time limit is... 2 hours!"

She immediately sat down on a bench in front of the classroom, opened a pack of "Persimmon Seed" snacks, it was crunchy, and she chewed it happily. Next to the female graduate, there was a hot mist that had just been poured out. of tea.

When the students were about to run out, the blond boy Takemi forcefully intercepted the group of Tagumi and Soma Yukihira.

"Let's decide the winner, Yukihira Soma!"

Takmi is confident and high-spirited.

"Chef Gan, can you be the judge of this duel?"

Inui Hinata, who was eating snacks like a squirrel, exclaimed, her eyes moving between the blond boy and Yukihira Soma, and then looking at Tadokoroe and the fat Isami who were their respective partners.

"No problem!" The corners of the female graduate's mouth turned up even more happily, "But this is a duel between groups, not a personal achievement!"

"Of course I know!"

Takemi snorted, "Soma Yukihira, considering that you brought a slutty partner, I will allow your dishes to be less than outstanding, as long as your dishes, as the chef, are the same as our group's dishes, If the difference in ratings is not big...I will consider you the winner!"

"So, come on, don't get caught up in the oil bottle, got it?!"

The words trailed off.

The fat brother Isami had an intolerable expression on his face and stepped forward and forcibly dragged his brother Takemi away.

On the bench, Miki Hinata was holding a cup of hot tea, watching the two groups leave.

She lowered her head slightly and blew into the teacup, because the heat mist's face seemed to be covered with a blackening shadow:

"People are in an unknown and unfamiliar environment, and it is always easy to get lost."

"Outside, there are ingredients everywhere."

"The difficulty of this subject is not about hunting for ingredients at all, but about a basic quality that a qualified Toyue student must master -"

"Reason! Quick thinking!"

Outside the classroom, in the forested countryside.

Xing Ping Soma carried the bucket and fishing rod, and sat directly in front of the stream after going out.

"Yukihira-kun, have you already thought of the recipe?" Tadokoro was standing next to him, holding his knees with his hands and bending slightly to ask.

Xingping Soma nodded, "Fish in the river is one of the easiest ingredients to catch."

"You can catch trout or salmon, bake them with salt, or braise them in braise." He looked up at the crowds surging up and down the river, and scratched his head, "That's pretty much the ingredients. In terms of the types of dishes, it's easy to overwhelm!"

Tadokoro Hui hummed: "Why don't we come up with unique features in the side dishes or other places. In this way, even if the 'fish' dishes are the same, we still have enough points and advantages to win!"

Huh.

This time, Yukihira Souma was surprised.

in his mind.

Shouldn't Tadokoro be nervous, with her hands clenched into small fists, trembling like a pure white sheep?

In school classes and in the greenhouse, girls are still like this.

In the wild, on a completely unfamiliar training topic, Tanokoroe actually behaved very normally! This in itself is the most unusual!

"Xingping-kun, I'm going to collect some ingredients that may be needed for side dishes and sauces, so that you can come up with the recipe later and have ready-made ingredients on hand. You don't have to look for them in a hurry. Save Save time and effort!”

Tasokoro waved her hand, turned around and left the riverside.

Xingping Soma felt strange in his heart about the idea of ​​a girl not relying on herself but having her own opinion.

"Yes, the research team is a cooperative partner, not a master-slave relationship." Xingping Soma shook his head and turned to stare at the buoy on the water.

The 2 hours of project activity time, almost half an hour passed unknowingly.

One after another, student groups returned to the cooking classroom.

For a time, the air in the classroom was filled with the fishy smell of slaughtered and cooked fish.

Yukihira Soma, who had just returned to the classroom, frowned when he smelled the strong fishy smell: "Sure enough! In the ingredients of 'fish', it is too easy to cause the same thing!"

At this time, Tadokoro let out an "ah" sound and pointed to a hot kitchen table.

Brothers Takmi and Isami, slaughtering a duck.

The younger brother Isami is responsible for accurately cutting the leg meat and breast meat from the duck's large frame.

Brother Takmi then cut the duck meat, sprinkled it with salt and pepper, briefly marinated it, then pan-fried it and put it in the oven for the second level of roasting!

Every process is done in one go, smooth and capable!

"Amazing!"

Xing Ping Soma said, his eyes suddenly filled with solemnity, "These brothers definitely have practical experience in the front line of the kitchen, they are the kind of practical chefs!"

Practical person?

He didn't notice the subtle and strange change in Tasoko's face next to him when he uttered this comment.

"Let's get started -" Yukihira Soma threw the freshwater fish he had just caught into the sink on the kitchen counter. "The recipe has also been decided. It's not grilled fish, not braised fish, it's fried!"

"Fish fry?"

Tadokoro was astonished. She was sorting out the ingredients she had collected, such as eggs and wild vegetables.

"If it's fried, how to solve the problem of dough? This kind of cooking method cannot be without dough! The problem is that in the classroom, there are only simple and basic condiments, no starch or flour!"

Xing Ping Soma said in a confident tone: "I have a way to solve it——"

With that said, the boy walked towards Miki Hinatako at the front of the classroom, asked for a pack of 'Kakizune' snacks from the female graduate, and then returned.

"I plan to break this into pieces, mix it with egg liquid, and it will be a simple "coat"! "

Yukihira Souma obviously belongs to that type of practical chef. He never talks about unnecessary nonsense and immediately gets involved in the process with a suffocating pace.

Kill fish.

Crush 'persimmon seeds'.

Beat the eggs and separate the egg whites and egg yolks.

At the same time, a pot of frying oil was also placed on the stove, and soon there was a sizzling sound.

"I plan to use these egg yolks to make sauce." Yukihira Soma said, pointing to a few unmashed egg yolks in the bowl.

"Leave the sauce part to me?"

To Soma Yukihira, Tadokoro's tone sounded like the capable aura of a front-line chef, "In the recipe you have conceived, what does the sauce look like? Specifically, what style and flavor is it?"

Yukihira Soma scratched his head and said: "Refreshing, just remove the greasiness of fried fish."

After hesitating for a moment, he still did not refuse Tian Suohui's offer.

Plenty of time.

If Tadokoroe performs poorly in the sauce part, their team can do it one or more times in the remaining time until they get approval from the subject instructor.

Moreover, if he alone is responsible for all operations, this research team should not be called Yukihira Soma + Tadokoro.

About half an hour later.

At almost the same moment, the two groups submitted their assignments to the review area where Hikariko was located.

The assignment for the group of Takmi and Isami is still "Roasted Duck".

Tadokoro Megumi and Yukihira Soma's "Fried Persimmon Brocade".

Nothing seems to have changed.

but.

The time for them to submit their homework was almost overturned. Originally, Yukihira and Tadokoro's team narrowly passed the test at the buzzer. Now, there is still more than half an hour left before the end of the project!

Reviewed at the same time, one side is the roast duck with unique flavor, and the other side is the combination of fried fish and sauce.

Hinatako sniffed the smell surging in the air, suddenly turned her gaze, and pointed at the small plate of sauce placed in the corner of the fried fish plate:

"This... what kind of sour taste is it?"
