This “Summon Kitchen” Skill is Amazing! ~Amassing Points by Cooking in Another World

I saw off the back of the truffle pig, also known as Thruster-san, for a while.
Thruster-san collected a lot of mushrooms.
As expected, there were no truffles, but there seemed to be various kinds of mushrooms.
There are a lot of things I don’t understand, but Thruster-san, who has [Sense of Smell] sorted them out, so it should be fine to eat them.
Well, it’s possible that Thruster-san will dare to poison it, but the people who will eat it are the crown prince, Elja-san, and his beloved brother, Ryleigh-kun, so I can rest assured about that.
So.

“Well then, Shizuku-chan, please help me.”

“Yes!”

I held the mushrooms and did [Summon Kitchen].
Shizuku-chan was also with me.

“Ah, Shina-san, this refrigerator. . .”

“Yeah! That’s right. . .! You’ll understand. . .!”

When Shizuku-chan came to the kitchen, the first thing she found was the refrigerator.
Yes, until now, it was a two-door type for living alone, but this time, I tried to make it a 700L one. . .!
I used 300,000 points. . . I was very, very excited.

“Everyone in the Northern Knights ate a lot, and my points increased a lot. Oh, and of course, thanks to Shizuku-chan.”

It was okay to have everyone in the Northern Knights eat the food I made with [Summon Kitchen], so I was able to accumulate a lot of points, including the first time bonus.
Even if I don’t use [Summon Kitchen], the things I made in the kitchen would still give me experience points.
As for Shizuku-chan, the set points are on a different level. . . 10,000 points.
Thanks to that, a large refrigerator reigns in the kitchen!

“I thought it would be nice to have a place to store food while traveling, so I made it the biggest refrigerator.”

“It’s amazing. It’s one size bigger than the one we had.”

“That’s right. For a family of 4-5 people, it’s about 500L”

“That’s why, Shina-san, you were making a lot of meals with the Northern Knights.”

“Yeah. When I replaced the oven, the home appliance rack and base, it was gone in no time. . . I asked everyone to cooperate with me for the refrigerator.”

The performance of the refrigerator is amazing. . . you can close the door and it will keep it at just the right temperature, and it will store it in the optimum condition.

“Right now, it’s full of meat from the Northern Knights and vegetables from the capital’s market.”

“That’s right. Then are you going to cook with mushrooms now?”

“Hmm. That’s fine, but Thruster-san said that mushrooms from the forest won’t be on the market, so I think it’s good to have mushrooms as the main ingredient. Also, it’s just a break, so you can eat it like a snack.”

“Sounds good.”

“Yeah. . . Ah, but I don’t have enough ingredients, so I’ll exchange them.”

After talking to Shizuku-chan, I stand in front of the LCD to exchange points.
Then choose what I need. . .

“Okay. Exchange done!”

Along with my words, the area around the cooking table glows white, and the things exchanged for points appear.
Seeing that, Shizuku-chan blinked her eyes.

“Peppers and. . . bread?”

“Yeah. It’s six pieces of chili peppers and bread. I’ll explain how to use it at that time, so let’s make it first!”

“Yes!”

Shizuku-chan and I nodded to each other, and immediately started cooking!

“Then, I want Shizuku-chan to remove the dirt from the mushrooms, can I ask you to do that?”

“Yes.”

“If you wash the mushrooms with water, the flavor will be lost, but since this mushroom is from the forest, if it is very dirty or the soil is hard to remove, wash it with water.”

“Yes.”

“If it’s not very dirty, just wipe it with kitchen paper. . .After that, cut off the stone part with a kitchen knife.”

In front of the counter top, Shizuku-chan and I lined up to prepare the mushrooms that Thruster-san picked for us.
Wash heavily soiled items with water. I wiped off a little soil and dirt with paper towels, and quickly dushed clean things.
It’s hard if you’re alone, but if two people work together while talking, the time will pass quickly.
When I noticed that there were many mushrooms, they were all clean.

“Then let’s split the mushrooms.”

“Do you rip it?”

“Yeah. Mushrooms can be easily disassembled by hand.”

While explaining to Shizuku-chan, I cut off the stem of the shiitake-like mushroom and split it into a cap and stem.
It is okay if you break the umbrella part into four by hand.
I said yes, and gave Shizuku-chan the mushroom that I hadn’t split yet, and Shizuku-chan followed my example and started tearing the mushroom apart.

“Wah. . .It’s a little fun because it’ll come apart after a little resistance.”

“Yes. I understand.”

Each mushroom has a slightly different response.

Shiitake-like, maitake-like, shimeji-like, I don’t really know.
When you tear all of them in a good way, the preparation of mushrooms is over.

“Next, let’s peel the garlic and slice it thinly. I’ll peel it, so Shizuku-chan, would you mind slicing it thinly?”

“Yes!”

Now that the mushrooms are done, it’s time to cut the garlic.
Garlic is a little too much, and it’s a solid five pieces.

“Okay, it’s over! I’m sorry. You got a smell on your hands. . .”

“It’s okay. . . because I’m the same as Shina-san.”

“. . .Shizuku-chan.”

I wonder if there is a child who can express that her hands smelled after cutting garlic in such a cute way. No, no. Not normally. I can’t believe it.
But here she is.

“Cute.”

Too cute.
When I pressed my chest, Shizuku-chan washes her hands and smiles.
After Shizuku-chan, I washed my hands and took out a cast iron pot.

“This is the pot you used for the barbecue, right?”

“Yeah. It’s a pot that the head chef used at the royal palace, but when I said I was going on a trip, he gave one to me.”

It’s a well-used cast iron pot that shines black.
I put plenty of olive oil in it.

“Shina-san. . . Are you going to make deep-fried food?”

“No. Is it boiled food, maybe?”

“Boiled food. . .But if you put so much oil in it. . .”

“Yeah. So, this is boiled in oil, isn’t it?”

“Boiled in oil. . .”

“If I say ahiijo, maybe you’ll understand?”

I change my words so that Shizuku-chan who has a floating ‘?’ above her head might understand more easily.
Then, Shizuku-chan seemed to understand it and nodded slightly.

“Ah, I may have heard of it. It’s made with shrimp, right?”

“I think that’s it.”

“That’s why you exchanged for bread with points.”

“Yeah. Ahiijo, of course, the ingredients are delicious, but the oil is the most delicious. . . after all, you want to eat it with bread.”

“. . .I’m looking forward to it.”

“Then let’s turn on the stove and put the garlic and chili peppers in the pot.”

Before the oil is still hot, add the garlic cloves and the chili peppers.
Both garlic and chili peppers burn easily, so they are added at a low temperature to bring out the aroma and flavor.
As the temperature of the oil rises, it begins to crackle.
Plenty of mushrooms there!

“Wow. . .it smells so good.”

“Yeah. Garlic and mushrooms are amazing. . .”

I mixed the contents of the pot all around, and Shizuku-chan and I gurgled at the scent that rose up.
It’s still bulky and not all in oil, but the mushrooms should soon soften and have just the right amount.

“Shizuku-chan, can you check on it from time to time and mix in some mushrooms?”

“Yes, I understand.”

“I will prepare the bread.”

“Isn’t the bread just like this?”

“Yeah. Ahiijo bread absorbs too much oil when it’s soft, so I want to make it crispy. . . Actually, I think a baguette would be a good choice as a type of bread. . .”

I think hard bread goes well with ahiijo.
But. . .

“I miss bread. . .”

The crust is crispy, the surface is brown, and the inside is soft and chewy.
I feel like eating that kind of bread. . .
Shizuku-chan deeply nodded at those words I muttered.

“Yes. . . I want to eat it too.”

“Right.”

I want to eat a loaf of bread.

“But will a bag of bread be enough?”

“Eh, isn’t that enough?”

Me, Shizuku-chan, Hurst-san, Ryleigh-kun, Thruster-san, Ash-san, Zezgard-san, Gyabussh, and Elja-san, a total of 9 people.
For the time being, it’s a snack in terms of time, so I’m thinking that I don’t need that much, but. . .

“Me and Shizuku-chan can share. Ryleigh-kun and Thruster-san can share. I wonder if it’s okay to think Zezgard-san and Gyabussh can share. . . ”

“. . .am I sharing with Shina-san?”

“Yes.”

“. . . . Understood.”

After Shizuku-chan muttered, ‘sharing with Shina-san’ several times, she nodded firmly.

“. . .I think it’s enough.”

“That’s good.”

Now that I have Shizuku-chan’s approval, let’s start cutting the bread!
Open the bag of bread and take out one slice.
Then, cut into the bread with a kitchen knife.

“Are you going to make a notch?”

“Yeah. If you do it this way, it will be crispier than usual, and it will be easier to year when you put oil on it.”

First, cut the square bread vertically, horizontally, and in half.
Furthermore, if you make a notch to divide each of them equally, you can create 4 blocks vertically and horizontally, a total of 16 blocks.
I’m going to brown this in the oven, but it’s difficult to bake six at once.
However, I have a one-door oven in my kitchen, so i put in two slices and close if three times, and the bread is ready in no time!

‘Wah. . .nice color.”

The surface of the bread is brown.
The notched part is still white, and the contrast is more appetizing.
When I took it out of the oven, the good smell of wheat spread softly.

“Shina-san, the number of mushrooms has decreased considerably.”

“Ah, it’s true. It’s really soaked in oil. It’s not even burnt! It’s perfect!”

Thanks to Shizuku-chan who was watching the pot, the mushrooms felt really god.
Sprinkle salt to finish, adjust the taste, and it’s done!

“Ah, the kitchen is giving me a bread basket. . .”

A basket on the counter top.
I like it. . .casually. . . I like it. . .
I put the baked bread in the basket and had Shizuku-chan take it.
Then I held the cast-iron pot firmly in my mittened hand.

“Then, Shizuku-chan, put your hand around my arm.”

“Yes!”

Using my words as a signal, Shizuku-chan tightly wrapped her arm around my arm.
Breath in the scent of garlic, mushrooms and wheat that spreads through the kitchen!

. . . Ahiijo with plenty of mushrooms.

“[It’s done]!”

 

Sorry that the chapter is 2 days late. One of my six year olds had a stomach bug and I ended up catching it as well, so I got a little behind.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
