"That's enough for now, please take a rest!" Haruna carefully sealed the radish slices in a zip-keeping bag, and said to Kitahara Shuji calmly. There were more than a dozen such large zip-keeping bags in front of her, and there were
A variety of pre-prepared ingredients.
Kitahara Shuji put down the kitchen knife with a little regret, smiled and said "good" - it was a pity that he didn't gain much experience after cutting such a large amount.
Of course, running an izakaya requires constant purchase of fresh ingredients, but there is no guarantee that these fresh ingredients can be sold, and the excess will be made into "pickles", which are called pickles or pickles in China.
Basically, salting is the main method, that is, cabbage, radish, cucumber and even squid, fish, fish offal, fish roe and salt are sealed together in a sterilized jar or wooden barrel, then pressed with stones, and waited for three to five weeks.
Then take it out to dry.
For example, salted sea urchin, mullet ovaries, and sea cucumber intestines are known as Japan's three delicacies, and they are all famous local dishes for drinking.
In addition, there are pickles, soy sauce pickles, vinegar pickles, chili pickles, miso pickles, etc., which have the same properties as salt pickles, such as "Shinko Mentaiko", which is to pickle mentaiko fish roe with chili, sugar and spices.
——The Xinzi in the name refers to chili pepper.
Chili oil cucumbers, pickled cabbage and the like are even more common and can be seen basically everywhere.
There are also complicated ones, such as "Ze'an", which uses a mixture of salt, bran and sugar to pickle radish slices. Salt, sugar, rice bran and mashed persimmon and apple are mixed in proportion and sun-dried.
powder, then lay out one layer of powder and one layer of white radish slices, and seal and press it for about a month. After it is made, the radish has a salty and sweet taste, with a fruity fragrance, and the white radish slices are dyed.
The fruit puree added is different, showing yellow, orange or red color, which makes people appetite when looking at it.
Even cherry blossom petals can be made into pickles, but as for the taste...it just depends on personal preference!
In the past, these were the tasks of Haruna. Before Hideji Kitahara came, she was usually responsible for checking the refrigerator and freezer, and then processing the stale ingredients into pickles and selling them as side dishes to go with drinks, so she just stood in the kitchen and cut them when she had nothing to do.
Cut it, and Kitahara Shuji is now thinking about brushing the [Cooking Skill] skill to lv10 quickly. After finishing the work at the izakaya today, he was not in a hurry to leave, and stayed to help Haruna work together.
You can never have too much experience. If you can get some, you can’t just pay for it yourself!
His current knife skills are much better than Haruna's, and his strength and endurance are better than hers. He can process all the ingredients accumulated from the recent bad business in one go, and the buckets, jars, and ingredients for making pickles in the backyard are all
It's ready-made, just go back and stuff it inside.
Haruna sealed the bag, looked at the clock and said to Kitahara Hideji: "I'm sorry to cause you trouble. It seems that it's past the time for the bus to leave. How are you going to go back?"
Kitahara Shuji finished his work and was setting up the kitchen utensils while having a "crazy" attack. He casually smiled and said, "It's okay. It's not too far in a few stops. I'll just walk back."
Haruna was slightly embarrassed. She usually likes to observe others, and Kitahara Shuji is currently her key observation target. She found that Kitahara Shuji worked very hard during this period and seemed to share the joys and sorrows in the face of the crisis. She couldn't help but feel sorry for these few people.
Tian didn't pay much attention to him, and he felt a little regretful.
Her father was joking, but he offended her again - she was a little dissatisfied in her heart. No matter how good Kitahara Shuji was, and no matter how much his father admired him, he should not treat his daughter like a commodity and just let him pick one as a pawn.
Wife, this is so disrespectful. No matter how chauvinistic or patriarchal you are, you cannot do this!
But her character is not like Fuyumi's, who just spits out anger when she is angry. She usually keeps it in her stomach, so Kitahara Shuji suffered a lot. In order to show that the girls of the Fukuzawa family are very reserved and noble, they are not unusual.
This guy, Haruna has been decisively lukewarm towards Kitahara Shuji these days.
But now Kitahara Shuji took the initiative to help and saved her a lot of time. She would be embarrassed if she was lukewarm, and she also found that no one except herself seemed to care much about her father's rude jokes. It seemed like a drunkard would say something
The eldest sister's temper was such that she didn't even bother to get angry with him when he was drunk.
She thought for a while and said to Kitahara Hideji: "Wait a moment." After saying that, she turned into the corridor door next to the kitchen and didn't know what she was doing.
Kitahara Shuji ignored her and carefully sorted the kitchen utensils into categories and put them neatly. Then he wiped the table spotlessly with a rag up and down. After taking a few steps back, he felt relieved and couldn't help but secretly sigh if there was a [cleaning]
It would be nice to have skills like 】, but with my temper, I might be able to reach lv20 by now.
He just took a few glances when he heard his cell phone ringing. He took it out and saw that it was Yuma Uchida. He didn't know what he wanted to do, so he picked it up and asked, "Uchida, what's wrong so late?"
Yuma Uchida's voice was very excited, and he shouted on the other end of the phone: "Kitahara, I can't sleep!"
Kitahara Shuji was silent for a moment, it's none of my business if you can't sleep? Did you call to let me sing you a lullaby? I don't have that function!
He said angrily: "If you are worried, just call Alu and talk to Alu."
"After the fight, Alu has gone half crazy. Now I can only look for you!"
Hideji Kitahara put the phone on speakerphone and put it aside. He went to wash his hands and said casually: "I'm very busy now. If you really have something to do, just keep it short. If you don't have anything else, hang up as soon as possible."
It's probably not a serious matter.
It’s not that Kitahara Shuji lacks personal accomplishment. Uchida Yuuma is a standard type of fox friend. He is shameless and shameless. You must not be polite to him - this guy is a chatterbox and a troublemaker. If you are polite to him, he will be annoyed to death.
you.
"I'm nervous, Beiyuan. Tomorrow will be my first battle to Koshien. When I think that this is my first step to start the epic legend, I feel so anxious that I can't sleep at all! You said that in the future I
Recalling this day..." Yuma Uchida was chattering endlessly, and Hideji Kitahara carefully cleaned his hands, going in and out of his left ear and right ear.
You don't have to talk to this guy, he can talk for half an hour... What a talent!
"Ah, who's talking?" She lifted the curtain at the entrance of the corridor and emerged from the snow. She had changed out of her cooking clothes and was wearing brown and white plaid pajamas with bare feet. She had a girlish home style, but she was alone
It was uncoordinated to hold a bicycle in his hand. He looked at the phone with curiosity like a small animal on his face, "Hidetsugi, whose phone number is it?"
After Naotaka Fukuzawa finished his joke, he ran away, hid himself and continued to feed the horse urine, leaving a mess for Kitahara Shuji - Fuyumi was currently focusing on how to protect her own source of income. Fortunately, Haruna has been giving birth to a child.
She was sulky (she already had feelings for her father), and Natsori Natsusa would sneak glances at Kitahara Shuji from time to time. She didn’t know what kind of evil idea she was planning. It was probably related to the rebellion, and Yuki was the most direct. She seemed to
She felt that she was the one who understood her father best in the family. She understood that he had to give up his children in order to lure the wolf, and she also valued the feudal dross of parents' lives. She even started to call Kitahara Shuji by his first name.
"...You must watch my Hagar's first battle with Kitahara tomorrow. I, Lord Xiongma, am counting on you guys to help me publicize my heroic appearance in the school. Don't forget...Eh? Hidetsu?
The woman's voice is still very sweet, it's a girl...Kitahara, where are you at this time? Shouldn't you live alone? Who is this girl?!" Uchida Yuma was chatting vigorously, suddenly
Hearing Xueli's voice, the words in my mouth were so startled that they were out of tune.
Xueli came close to the mobile phone on the desk and asked cheerfully: "I am Xueli, who are you?" Her voice was soft and waxy, with a bit of a milky sound.
"Yuki... ah, no, Yuki-san, ah, no, eldest sister?" Yuma Uchida's voice was a little trembling. He was in the restless period of youth, and he also acted like a bitch every day, but he really
He didn't have many opportunities to talk to girls, and the girls in the class didn't pay much attention to him. He could only chat with girls online through text. When he suddenly heard Xueli's sweet voice, his mind was a little lost.
His last eldest sister did not mean elder sister. There is no direct address for sister-in-law in Japanese. He was classifying Yuki into the group of Kitahara Shuji's girlfriends. "My younger brother is Uchida Yuma, from Kitahara..."
As he was talking, Kitahara Shuji quickly wiped his hands and picked up the phone. He felt like vomiting blood and quickly turned off the speakerphone. But Uchida Yuma was still saying, "It's Kitahara's first friend, a life-long friendship."
,eldest sister..."
Kitahara Shuji stopped talking nonsense with him and said directly: "Okay, Uchida, you said it a hundred times during the day. I promised to go to the baseball game, so I will definitely go. Let's do this for now!"
As he said that, he didn't care that Yuma Uchida was still shouting on the other end, "Eh! Eh? You haven't told me about your girlfriend yet! Hello, hello, hello?!" and cut off the call.
Yuma Uchida obviously loves things between men and women more than he loves baseball.
Haruna has been following Xueli and is preaching to her, "Second sister, how can you interrupt other people's private calls at will? This is so rude. Please apologize quickly."
Xueli felt a little aggrieved: "Is that so? He turned on his cell phone so loudly. Besides, Xiuji is not an outsider..."
Kitahara Shuji put the phone on and was speechless for a while. Am I not an outsider or your wife?
He planned to tell Yuma Uchida not to think too much tomorrow, and he was not afraid of skewed shadows and straight feet, so it was not a big deal. He smiled and said, "No need to apologize, it's okay."
Xueli rubbed the back of her head and became cheerful again, "Xiuji, it's better for you. Never argue with me. If it's my eldest sister who wants to hit me again, I will definitely keep your sincerity in mind..."
Haruna pulled her to stop her from continuing to talk nonsense, "Second sister, eldest sister asked you to come down to work..."
"Oh, I understand." Xueli responded, then turned to ask Kitahara Shuji, "Are you going to watch a baseball game tomorrow? Can you take me with you?"
Her eyes were looking forward to it. During this period, she had been forced to study. She was in pain and aggrieved. She wanted to go out and play.
Kitahara Shuji didn't want to, but he didn't want to be the bad guy either. He smiled and said, "Ask your sister. If she agrees, we can go together."
Fuyumi will definitely not be happy, since she is already a model of a little bastard, so let her be the bad guy to the end.
"Then I'll ask her later!" When Kitahara Hideji agreed, Yuki happily piled up the bags of ingredients, picked them up easily and left - she seemed to have always done this kind of physical work at home.
Xueli left, Haruna pointed to the bicycle left aside by Xueli and said calmly: "You can go back by bicycle today, it will go faster."
Kitahara Shuji looked at the bicycle and found that it was a very compact women's bicycle. For a big man, riding it would probably feel like a monkey riding a chicken, but it was ugly, and it would definitely save time and effort than walking - no matter what others think, it is practical.
First!
He didn't expect Haruna to think so carefully about him, so he smiled and thanked him. He picked up the bicycle and found that it was well maintained. Haruna put a bag of broken meat bones for him in the basket and asked him to take it back to feed the dog.
.
Kitahara Xiuji walked out with his bicycle and asked curiously: "Is this your bicycle?"
"No, I can't ride, it's my eldest sister's." As a Chinese, I think riding a bicycle is a basic skill, but it is not necessarily the case abroad. Kitahara Shuji is not surprised by this. What is strange to him is that he has never seen a little carrot.
Head riding a bicycle to school.
Her two short legs must be very fun to ride a bicycle.
"Why doesn't your eldest sister stop riding now?"
"When I was in junior high school, my eldest sister took my second sister to school on a bicycle. Later, my second sister moved randomly and got her foot stuck in the wheel. My eldest sister didn't pay attention. She couldn't stand up while pedaling. Unconvinced, she stood up and pushed my second sister. As a result, my second sister was kicked.
Don’t hurt your feet if they are stiff...Later, my eldest sister blamed the design of the bicycle, so she threw it away in a warehouse and took the bus to school instead."
Kitahara Shuji was speechless. Wouldn't those two fools scream if their feet were stuck in the wheel? He thought for a while and Xiao Yuki lowered his head to look curiously at his feet being stuck in the wheel, while Fuyumi in front of her was holding her tightly.
The image of him standing on the bicycle and pedaling desperately, and slowly grinning when the last dinosaur nerves in the snow finally transmit the pain to the brain...
How did you two live together safely to such an old age?
The picture was so beautiful that he didn't dare to think too much. He waved to Haruna, got on his bicycle and left.
