They Gather Here

What Luo Zhen wants to do now is to fry the sugar color.

After heating up the cold pan, he poured a spoonful of salad oil, added dried ginger slices, Chinese prickly ash, grass fruit, and cinnamon to fry until fragrant, and then added a packet of three-temperature sugar.

So far, 4 more flavors have been used in the thirteen incense, and the last 3 flavors are left.

Three temperature sugar can be regarded as a neon feature.

It is the sugar produced after repeated boiling of molasses, and the caramel component is produced due to heating, so it is tea-brown and has a special flavor.

To be honest, this kind of sugar is not high in purity and low in sucrose content, but its ingredients are complex and has a burnt aroma. It tastes sweeter than white sugar, and its color makes it suitable for stewing , Braised, or used to make marinades, sauces, etc.

Originally, the purpose of frying the sugar color was to make the sugar soaked in oil, but Luo Zhen was worried that the three-temperature sugar would be too sweet, so he changed the ratio to 1:1.

He turned on medium heat, and used a spatula to stir fry and melt. When the color was close to brown-red, bubbles came out, and he turned off the heat.

Then, add the lamb chops, stir-fry until they are colored, then add two teaspoons of mirin, and stir well.

For a moment, the color is bright.

Megumi Kato watched from the side, and his appetite increased greatly: "It's great!"

Luo Zhen nodded: "Considering the cost, when I made twice-cooked pig's trotters last time, did I use white sugar or rock sugar, and this time I changed to three-temperature sugar, so I'm willing to go all out."

"..."

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"When you cooked for us before, didn't you always consider the cost?"

"I'll be more or less concerned..."

"Luo Jun is a villain!"

Kato Megumi couldn't help but feel a little upset when he thought that the food he had eaten before was not 100% pure.

But why is it so delicious?

She can't get angry.

The girl turned her face to one side, puffing out her cheeks on purpose.

Luo Zhen scratched his head, completely unable to understand the reason why the other party behaved like this, so he could only continue to work honestly.

In order to be more authentic, he didn't even use thick soy sauce this time, but switched to dark soy sauce imported from Huaxia, and stir-fried evenly, so that the color of the lamb chops turned red and red.

Then, put in the washed star anise, angelica dahurica, tangerine peel, add bay leaves, dried chili, red dates, ginger, green onions, pour hot water about 1cm higher than the lamb chops, bring to a boil over high heat, and scoop out the floating meat with a spoon. Froth, then add the right amount of salt, turn to low heat, cover the pot.

Kato Megumi reminded from the side: "Luo Jun, it seems that there is not enough water~"

If it is stewed lamb chops, it is best to add enough water at one time. If the lamb chops are not rotten after the soup is stewed, you need to add water to continue.

Even if hot water is added, the quality and taste will be more or less affected.

However, Luo Zhen shook his head: "I won't stew until it's fully cooked, I'll put it in the oven when it's half ripe."

Kato Megumi showed a suddenly realized expression: "Is that so..."

"Okay, it's all right here."

"I'm not very helpful and I can't help~"

The girl pouted dissatisfiedly and left.

?

Although I really want to go with Yukinoshita-senpai, but since I have promised Irisu-senpai, I have to finish the work.

After finally making it to the end of the opening ceremony, Chitanda returned the earphones and the "Time-Program Comparison Table", and walked quickly in the corridor with slightly larger strides than usual.

I don't know which club seems to have not finished the preparation work, and is putting gold and silver silk on the classroom door.

Seeing how busy they were, the girl wanted to help.

Fortunately, she didn't forget that she still had business to do, she shook her head, and walked firmly and steadfastly to the third floor of the special building.

But the problem is...

There are too many temptations around!

……

"SF Agency is making science fiction predictions, why don't you take a look?"

"The underground minecart in class F of the 2nd year is so fun. The best reward is dorayaki. It feels weird, but the taste is really super delicious, but it's a bit cold."

"Have you watched the play in Class E, Year 1?"

"Look, when Esmeralda came out of the magic mirror, I was taken aback."

……

The well-dressed and noisy crowd tempts curious babies.

She turned her head to the right, and found that the senior from the SF club followed, and tried her best to promote her club: "A science fiction prophecy is to create an imaginary thing. If these creations happen to come true, their charm will be reduced. "

It seems so.

Chitanda couldn't help but think of "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea". If Jules Verne's submarine hadn't come true, it might indeed have been more romantic.

The girl fell into deep thought and stopped involuntarily.

The member of the SF Club saw that there was something going on, and continued to sell wildly, such as "creation of the world from nothing", "the courage of the creator", and "a gentleman is poor", all of which were incomprehensible.

Chitanda was a girl who was not very good at rejecting others, she raised her head in embarrassment, looking around for a way out.

Then, she saw a big group of people in front of her, clinging to the side of the corridor not near the window.

Call ~

Finally got a chance to get away.

Letting out a sigh of relief, the girl waved her hand at the senior from SF Club and rushed in.

At the same time, a reader's voice dragged the end slightly: "If people are always here~~~I will leave traces even now~~~~~"

Although the past is sad, everything can be traced!

Subconsciously, Chitanda mentally uttered the second half of the sentence written by a public singer in the middle of the Heian period—Fujiwara Kensuke (also translated as "Kyosuke"), only to realize that a kataka battle was going on in the middle of the crowd .

To put it simply and crudely, Competitive Ge Pai is about reciting poems.

The next line of the poem is written on the cards. Someone is responsible for reading the poem and will repeat the next line. The contestants must first find the card that corresponds to the next line.

This is Chitanda's most confident card game (can it be counted?).

She stood on tiptoe and looked at the advertising roll-up banner of Hundred People One Club, on which was written the slogan in large cursive characters——

Play competitive songs and win tens of thousands of coupons!

Point coupons are equivalent to the circulation currency of the cultural festival, so this is a very tempting reward.

No wonder there are so many people around here.

The girl immediately thought of the bet between the neighborhood committee and the summer of the East Magic Siesta Association, bit her lower lip involuntarily, and squeezed in between.

? AND ?

It smells so good!

Almost following the smell of lamb chops, Yukinoshita returned to the home economics classroom.

The size of the home economics classroom is relatively large, so there are not many clubs at this end of the corridor. She often has mixed thoughts of "cursing the inconvenience" and "thanks for the tranquility" of this geographical condition.

When it comes to the cultural festival, these two ideas are twisted together——

Will there be guests?

Fortunately, the reality in front of her gave the girl the answer of "yes, and a lot".

I saw a long queue at the door of the classroom, and people were discussing enthusiastically.

……

"Looks like lamb chops."

"This is too delicious, I'm so hungry..."

"It's normal to be hungry, after all, we have the habit of 'Zaoben (mentioned earlier, that is, eating bento in advance)'."

……

During rush hour, the warm atmosphere of squeezing the Ginza Line seems to be somewhat similar.

Ying Lili blocked the teacher's door with a set of tables and chairs, and was busy distributing appointment vouchers, which was equivalent to setting up a temporary reception there.

Yukinoshita leaned over and asked, "Sawamura, what's going on?"

Ying Lili replied: "Luo Jun's cooking tastes so fragrant, anyone who passes the stairs can smell it, and it is expected that it will become like this."

"Well……"

"Speaking of which, why did you take so long?"

"Removing make-up and changing clothes takes more time than expected, the first graders are back?"

"No."

"I knew it would be like this. I just saw her being arrested by Rusu as a young man. Maybe she has been assigned a new job now."

"Poor kid, everywhere you go you are a tool man."

This is a bit too much.

But the two looked at each other, and they moved in unison and nodded in agreement.

Ying Lili couldn't hold back, "Pfft!" she smiled.

Then, she cleared her throat and changed the subject: "Go in and have a look, Mr. Luo seems to have reached the stage of baking, maybe you can help."

Still want to bake?

Yukinoshita almost drools when he thought of the Appicius-style roasted duck breast.
