【146】Sakura and the growth of all things, the vitality in cooking! (Subscribe!)
After hearing Tadokoro Megumi's response, Isshiki Satoshi smiled at her and went back to the table.
At this time, Tadokoro Megumi, like everyone else, was attracted by the fragrance of Isshiki Satoshi's Isshiki Satoshi's Isshiki Sakura Tea Soup Chawanmushi.
So they couldn't wait to pick up the spoon, scooped up a spoonful of steamed eggs and put them in their mouths.
"The soft and smooth steamed egg, once in the mouth, just rolled on the tip of the tongue, and completely melted in the mouth..."
Although the perfect steamed egg is usually very tender, the perfect taste like this, which can really be described as "melt in your mouth", still shocked Tadokoro Megumi and everyone.
"The steamed egg turns into a sweet juice, which fills the mouth, with a faint aroma of cherry blossoms and tea soup."
"It makes you feel like you're sitting under the cherry blossom trees in full bloom in March and having a picnic, sipping your freshly brewed tea leisurely.
"Even breathing, with such a delicate and pleasant fragrance...
Tadokoro Megumi, who is good at local cuisine, is mostly fresh in his cooking style.
Therefore, Tadokoro Megumi had a preconceived impression of Isshiki Satoshi's Isshiki Sakura Tea Soup Chawanmushi.
But when she really tasted this bowl of steamed eggs, she couldn't help being shocked by the deliciousness that was so extreme that she almost bit her tongue.
"...".
Just as the thought crossed Tadokoro Megumi's mind, she heard Aoki Daigo let out a painful cry.
Aoki Daigo covered his mouth with a painful expression.
"Bite, bite your tongue..."
he said vaguely.
And before Aoki Daigo finished speaking, Satō Shōji also covered his mouth and screamed.
It seems that he has the same problem as Aoki Daigo.
Although the others did not make such a fuss about "July 10", judging from their expressions, the deliciousness of this tea bowl steamed far beyond their imagination.
And Tadokoro Megumi, whose taste has improved rapidly recently, is even more aware of this extremely delicious feeling that constantly hits the tip of the tongue.
"The delicate and silky egg liquid without a trace of air bubbles was obviously sieved repeatedly before steaming to filter out the air in the egg liquid.
"Therefore, the egg liquid can achieve the perfect taste during the steaming process.
"And the shrimps, green vegetables, mushrooms, fungus... and other ingredients have also undergone special processing methods before being mixed into the egg liquid and steamed.
"Make them stand out in the egg wash!"9
"The secret to the fragrance of cherry blossoms and the fragrance of tea should come from the warm water when mixing the egg liquid.
Tadokoro Megumi closed his eyes and carefully discerned the taste.
"The perfect steamed egg, when steamed, is not just the original egg liquid."
"Only before steaming the eggs, adding an appropriate amount of warm water to the egg mixture, and then sieving it repeatedly, can the steamed eggs achieve the perfect taste."
"And the warm water used by Senior Isshiki to prepare the egg liquid should be specially prepared by him, so that the steamed egg exudes the fragrance of cherry blossoms and tea soup."
The fragrant and elegant fragrance that permeated between the lips and teeth made everyone present who tasted this one-colored sakura tea soup chawanmushi intoxicated.
"In addition to the warm and elegant aroma of the melted egg soup from the steamed egg flowing between the lips and tongue, the shrimp, green vegetables and other ingredients hidden in the steamed egg bring another wonderful experience to the lips and teeth.""
"A small cup of chawanmushi makes people feel like they have experienced a delicious feast under the cherry blossom trees in March!
Indulging in such an extreme delicacy, everyone at Polar Star Dorm just feels that they are at the moment, and they can hardly even talk about it.
They devoured the remaining steamed eggs in the teacup in one go.
Then, a strange scene suddenly appeared in their brains.
I don't know when, they are already on the avenue where the cherry blossoms are in full bloom in March.
Looking around, there is a sea of pink cherry blossoms all around.
The fragrance of cherry blossoms wafts from the nose, and they walk under the cherry blossom tree, and their bodies are covered with pink petals.
Under the cherry trees, there are countless tourists watching the flowers, and their faces are filled with joy for the arrival of spring and the joy of the cherry blossoms in full bloom.
After walking for a while, they spread out their camping tablecloths under one of the cherry blossom trees that bloomed the most.
Everyone brought out their own carefully prepared dishes for this picnic and shared them with everyone.
There are fragrant shrimps, refreshing green vegetables, crispy fungus, sweet and soft mushrooms...
While tasting the food and chatting, they looked up at the romantic cherry blossoms blooming like pink waves above their heads.
From the heart, I felt a yearning and passion for the vitality of life.
"A..."
Until the vision gradually shattered from their eyes, and they realized that they were still in the kitchen of Polar Star Dorm.
For a while, I felt a little lost in my heart.
"This gentle vitality...is this what Isshiki-senpai wants to convey in his cooking?"
A slightly surprised expression appeared on Sakaki Ryoko's face, she said as if muttering to herself.
"This kind of scene where everything is competing, the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, and the voices are full of people... It makes people want to be moved to tears..."
There were tears in Yoshino Yuuki's eyes.
However, it is Mrs. Fumio Daimidō who has the deepest feeling of the vitality contained in this Isshiro Sakura Tea Soup Chawanmushi.
At this moment, she was already sitting in the chair, muttering to herself.
"It's so shocking, this feeling... makes me feel like I'm back when I was young..."
"The tender and tender youthful years, like the cherry blossoms in March, are gone forever..."
"I didn't expect that after so many years, I was able to return to the scene at that time again, making myself feel younger again...
Fumio Daimidō, who always showed a serious expression, seemed to have tears in his old eyes at this moment.
A full five minutes passed, and the entire Polar Star Dorm kitchen fell silent.
Although Fumio Daimidō did not make a ranking review, but this dish of Isshiki Satoshi, everyone who has tasted it.
Everyone knows what the outcome will be.
"Damn it, it's Isshiki-senpai this time, you won."
Yukihira Sōma scratched his head a little unwillingly.
"But next time, I won't admit defeat."
Yukihira Sōma raised her head and looked straight at Isshiki Satoshi seriously.
"Really, then I look forward to the day when you can truly surpass me.
Facing Yukihira Sōma's unwillingness, Isshiki Satoshi, who was the winner, just smiled faintly.
"But everyone, this cooking discussion is not over yet.
"Next, it's up to Xiaohui."
"Hey, Xiaohui's cooking, hasn't it been done yet?"
When I heard Isshiki Satoshi mention Tadokoro Megumi, everyone's thoughts returned to reality.
They turned their heads and looked at Tadokoro Megumi who was still preparing.
In front of her cooking table, there was a lot of heat coming out of the pot, and everyone at Polar Star Dorm could tell with their skillful cooking experience.
Tadokoro Megumi's cooking should be almost finished.
But Tadokoro Megumi, who was standing in front of the cooking table, seemed to be stuck in the same place since he tasted Isshiki Satoshi's Isshiki Satoshi's Isshiki Sakura Tea Soup Chawanmushi.
Not moving at all.
"Xiaohui, Xiaohui?"
Ryoko Kami and Yoshino Yuuki, who are closest to her, called her worriedly.
"What happened to her, Tiansuo?"
Yukihira Sōma said while scratching her head.
"Isn't it because I was frightened and stupid after tasting Isshiki-senpai's cooking? 35
Before Aoki Daigo finished speaking, Yoshino Yuuki glared at him.
"What nonsense are you talking about, our Xiaohui is also very powerful now!"
"Yeah, the current Xiaohui is not what it used to be..."
As soon as Sakaki Ryoko finished speaking, she saw Tadokoro Megumi's body shake slightly, and her golden eyes regained their vigour.
"what……"
"Xiaohui, what's wrong with you?"
Ryoko Kanko and Yoshino Yuuki, who saw that Tadokoro Megumi finally recovered, the worry on their faces turned into joy, and they hurried over to ask Tadokoro Megumi.
"Um, nothing.
Tadokoro Megumi shook his head and looked at Isshiki Satoshi.
"This dish from Isshiki-senpai is really amazing. 99
"But I won't give in easily."
Unlike Yukihira Sōma's unwilling and stubborn tone just now, Tadokoro Megumi's tone was very light, but it was filled with a firmness that could not be ignored.
"Really, then I'll wait and see."
Hearing Tadokoro Megumi's speech, Isshiki Satoshi smiled slightly.
Tadokoro Megumi also smiled, and she gave Sakaki Ryoko and Yoshino Yuuki a "don't worry" look, and then walked back to the cooking table.
"Have you seen it, Xiaohui's eyes seem to have changed just now..."
"Yeah, it looks like he has become very powerful..."
Yoshino Yuuki and the others whispered.
The moment Tadokoro Megumi stood in front of the cooking table, her whole person's momentum seemed to have undergone earth-shaking changes.
It was as if she had suddenly entered a place that no one else could reach except her.
That place is a world full of cooking..
Only a strong enough cook can set foot in this world!
Not to mention Yukihira Sōma and the others, even Isshiki Satoshi showed a somewhat surprised expression.
Their eyes were locked on Tadokoro Megumi, as if they wanted to see what kind of answer Tadokoro Megumi would give.
"This kid...has changed a lot from when he first came to Polar Star Dorm..."
Of course, it's not just the boarding students at Polar Star Dorm.
Even Fumio Daimidō, the host of Polar Star Dorm, was staring at Tadokoro Megumi with a surprised look.
Although compared to other geniuses of Polar Star Dorm, such as Isshiki Satoshi, Yukihira Sōma and others.
All along, in Fumio Daimidō's memory, Tadokoro Megumi's performance has been somewhat unsatisfactory.
Just like every Tōtsuki student who wants to stay in Polar Star Dorm, the first test they have to accept when they come to Polar Star Dorm.
It's about making a meal that pleases you.
Otherwise, Fumio Daimidō will not be able to get the arrangement and approval to stay in Polar Star Dorm.
Tadokoro Megumi, who came all the way to study from a fishing town in the northeast, has lived in Polar Star Dorm since he was a junior high school student.
At that time, she was quite mediocre.
It even took a full month for her cooking to finally be recognized by Fumio Daimidō.
Thereby being approved to stay in Polar Star Dorm.
All along, Tadokoro Megumi's performance in Polar Star Dorm, if Fumio Daimidō commented, it is legendary.
Neither good nor bad.
Even in the exams of their elementary and advanced divisions.
When Fumio Daimidō learns that Tadokoro Megumi ends up being the last qualifier, flying low and becoming a student in the higher division of Tōtsuki Gakuen.
She didn't feel the slightest surprise either.
Originally, Fumio Daimidō thought that Tadokoro Megumi would spend the three years in obscurity just like when he was in the elementary school.
Fumio Daimidō didn't even dream about it.
Today's self, when I see Tadokoro Megumi preparing food, I can only feel the momentum in her body.
I felt a shock from within!
"The first few times I saw this child, she was still cowardly and seemed to have a hard time talking to people.
"In just a few months, what happened to her to make her change like this?
Fumio Daimidō was full of surprise.
But in addition to this surprise, an indescribable excitement and anticipation gradually rose in her heart.
"Under such an aura, what kind of cooking will this child make?"
Of course, in the heart of Fumio Daimidō at this moment, the temperament of Tadokoro Megumi has undergone an earth-shaking change.
But in her opinion, even Tadokoro Megumi's strength has grown by leaps and bounds in just a few months.
But if you want to beat Isshiki Satoshi, it is still 5.6 degrees in the fantasy world.
In Fumio Daimidō's opinion, Tadokoro Megumi's final dish could beat Yukihira Sōma.
It was already a very good performance.
Of course, it's not just Fumio Daimidō who thinks so.
Even Yoshino Yuuki and others are silently praying to Tadokoro Megumi in their hearts.
"If it can be similar to the cooking made by Yukihira-kun, it means that the current Xiaohui is really very good. 35
Yoshino Yuuki whispered.
Although Ryoko Sakaki didn't answer, in her heart, she clearly agreed with this statement.
"Next, we'll see what kind of food Xiaohui will come up with."
Sakaki Ryoko said softly.
Time passed minute by minute, and Isshiki Satoshi, who had set the time in advance, raised his head from time to time after finishing the cooking.
Look at the clock hanging on the kitchen wall.
"Time, there are only five minutes left. 99
Isshiki Satoshi's usual brisk tone made Ryoko and the others sink.
"Xiaohui, are you okay..."
"Yuji, don't disturb Xiaohui. 99
Ryoko Sakaki quickly stopped Yoshino Yuuki, who wanted to check Tadokoro Megumi's progress.
"..."
Yoshino Yuuki wanted to say something, but heard the sound of turning off the fire from Tadokoro Megumi's side.
She and Sakaki Ryoko both turned their heads in surprise.
"Little Hui!"
"Let everyone wait for a long time."
At this moment, Tadokoro Megumi did not have any emotions such as anxiety, cowardice, and cowardice on her face, which were often seen on her face before.
Instead, it was filled with a high-spirited sense of self-confidence.
"My cooking is done!"
