Dimensional Medicine King

Just a cup of seemingly simple black tea, Yukinoshita Yukino has changed her mind about this store. After all, Hikigu Hachiman’s introduction at the beginning was "a store that hardly sees people, it is definitely good to pass the time" .

At the same time, Lansi on the other side is also processing ingredients, such as peanuts, or chestnuts...

The 'Honey Roasted Peanuts' mentioned by Hikigu Hachiman is also not difficult. It is a relatively common snack, and he also plans to make some snacks when he has more time.

'It's so hot outside. Compared with biscuits, cookies and other snacks, cold snacks are better, right? '

Just before at Huakaiyuan's house, Xiuyuan once called you a 'yokan monster', and Lan Si also planned to make yokan.

Because of the neither scientific nor magical refrigerator in his kitchen, the production time of yokan has been shortened a lot, so Lansi plans to make 'Honey Peanut' first and then use the fragmented time to complete 'Yokan'.

The first thing to know is that 'yokan' sounds like meat, but it's actually a jelly-like dessert.

It is said that in the Tang Dynasty, 'Yangkan Soup' was very popular in Nihong, and the monks in the temple could not eat meat, so they commissioned people who had eaten it to make this kind of dessert similar to lamb liver.

Although Lan Si feels that this kind of statement is very unreliable, after all, the monks in Nihong are different from those in China. They can eat meat and marry. Spectrum some.

But regardless of the original reason, at least the production method is no problem.

In fact, it is not complicated to make yokan, just mix bean paste and gelatin, then add sugar and cook until it is all mixed, but if you want it to be delicious, you need to add a special ingredient———— chestnut powder.

The yokan with chestnut powder and the yokan without chestnut powder can be said to have two flavors.

Lan Si is even more partial to chestnuts, and he even plans to add chestnuts directly when making yokan.

The bean paste was prepared in advance in the store, and the gelatin was also provided by You Youyou. When heating on low heat, the steamer on the other side was also steaming the chestnuts. During this time, he also started to fry the peanuts.

After the raw peanuts are washed and drained, the blues are rubbed on the hands for two circles, and then the peanut shells are all crushed, blowing gently with the mouth to ensure that there are no debris, and then pour it into the other side where the butter is heated In the oil pan, stir-fry slowly over low heat, so as to remove the excess moisture inside the peanuts, and at the same time allow the difficult-to-remove peanut skins to fall off slowly.

At this time, the peanuts have just been fried and crispy, and the peanut skins are mixed with oil and poured out, while the peanuts are put into a small bowl prepared in advance, sprinkled with starch, and then start heating sugar in the pot.

Be sure to pay attention to the time when heating sugar, after all, if this thing is too long, it will be bitter.

When the white sugar starts to turn slightly red, pour the peanuts with starch on the surface into the pot and stir quickly, then quickly remove them and put them on a side plate.

Although 'Honey Peanut' is a common dish all over the world, Lansi still chose a Chinese-style cooking method called 'Slippery'.

The amount of starch on the golden-yellow peanuts is very small, so it is enough after the "silk drawing" heating. At this time, the peanuts seem to be glued by silk threads, but in fact this is not the end. After it cools down, the sugar used in the 'drawing' is solidified, and the shape and taste are improved to a higher level.

Sprinkle a layer of honey on top and let the blues cool down. At the same time, the yokan with chestnuts in the refrigerator is taken out, sliced ​​on a plate and sprinkled with chestnut powder. It is completed.

At the same time, the three people in the store on the other side were also having extremely strange exchanges.

Hikigaya Hachiman always had a salty expression on his face. In his words, "Why does he have to listen to that guy who is still not married even though it's summer vacation?"He would rather be able to stay at home with his cutest sister,' while on the other side, Yukinoshita Yukino was holding a certain book in her hand as usual, but what was different from usual was that although she was flipping through the book, her gaze was Unconsciously, he aimed at the cat dangling in front of the kitchen.

There is no doubt that her strange behavior was successfully discovered by Hikiya Hachiman, who has "sights like torches" or "good at human observation". On the other hand, Yui Hama Yui on the other side kept finding topics to try to make the atmosphere in the store no longer embarrassing. As for The cats she had been looking for before were left behind by her, after all, she simply likes cute things, but now compared to those cute little angels, it is obviously more appropriate to maintain the two people around her.

"Ah~! By the way, the boss hangs the famous 'Mona Lisa's smile', right?"

Because Yuigahama Yui really didn't know what topic to look for, she also turned her attention to the decorations in the store, and the most conspicuous of them was naturally the painting hanging behind the cash register...

Chapter 4 Chat Wizard (1/5)

'Mona Lisa'?

Yuigahama Yui's words naturally caught Yukinoshita Yukino's attention. In fact, she had seen the painting before, but the only thing that surprised her was why did the other party hang this painting here?Even if this painting is relatively famous, it doesn't suit the style here, does it?It's better than hanging a pair of Van Gogh's sunflowers, right?After all, in terms of decoration and furniture, no matter how you look at it, the boss doesn't seem like the kind of person who doesn't understand anything...

'It's strange. '

With a curious attitude, Yukinoshita Yukino also unconsciously looked a few more times, but then she began to feel something was wrong.

Because of family reasons, Yukinoshita Yukino has a lot of skills that "sounds great" in the eyes of ordinary people, such as "artistic vision".

She once went to the Louvre with her family to appreciate various works of art, and her first reaction was that this painting seemed to be more in line with the one in her impression than imagined.

'Could it be scanned?But it doesn't look like it should be drawn by someone...'

It is very difficult to counterfeit works of art nowadays. After all, the formation time of works of art can be determined through carbon elements. Of course, there are some counterfeiters who can confuse real ones with fake ones, but this is only limited to extreme cases. Yukinoshita Yukino does not believe that in an ordinary... This kind of thing may appear in the small shop in the shop. After all, if the goods here are genuine, then the ones in the Louvre are fakes?

Even Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help feeling that she was getting a little nervous by this strange little shop.

But when everyone's discussion goals were unconsciously focused on the wall, Lan Si on the other side came up with a snack.

"Sorry for keeping you all waiting."

On the white porcelain plate are the honey peanuts ordered by Hikigu Hachiman, while on the other side of the plate with a brown background is the sliced ​​yokan, and there are even honey, matcha powder, chestnut powder and a small spoon next to it. It is obvious that the last Seasoning is done by the guests themselves.

Compared with the hot air outside, the temperature of Lansi's small shop has been kept constant at 26°, which makes people feel the most comfortable. The soft sofa under his body makes him want to sink himself into it completely. Snacks and delicious drinks, if he is alone, he even feels that he can spend a day here, um, yes, alone...

"Woo~!! The sweet yokan is so good~!!"

Yuihama Yui, who was holding a small fork with one hand, couldn't help showing an expression of enjoyment. Even Hikiya Hachiman couldn't help but wonder what the taste was like with that happy expression.

On the other side, Yukinoshita Yukino's gaze is also unconsciously attracted by the other party. After all, as far as Japanese and Western desserts are concerned, she prefers traditional Japanese desserts, and yokan is one of her favorite types At this time, she really regretted that she didn't order dim sum because she felt that this store was a bit strange.

'Sure enough, you can't judge people by their appearance anywhere. '

Just when Yukinoshita Yukino was trying to look away—————

"Xiaoxue~! Do you want to try it?"

As the sound sounded, Yukinoshita Yukino saw that Yuigahama Yui on the other side actually inserted a small piece of yokan with a fork and handed it to the position in front of her.

Yukinoshita was a little overwhelmed by the other party's 'unexpected' behavior, and on the other side, Yuigahama Yui, who was originally smiling, seemed to be a little shy because her hands were in the air for a long time.

"Xiaoxue, I'm a little shy all the time..."

Seeing Yuigahama Yui's shy expression at this time, Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but feel that the other party was cute. In the end, she didn't know if it was simply because she wanted to eat yokan, or because she was also a woman who didn't want the other party. Continuing to 'lose face', so she stood up and brushed her temple hair with her hand to keep the food from sticking to it, and then...
