The category of soup is so vast that Yagi Seksai has no idea where to start.
He had a bit of a phobia of choice, but when he looked at the wide variety of materials in Chaldea's kitchen, he felt helpless.
"Well, senior, how about borscht? It's red and looks cute."
Seeing everyone so helpless, Matthew couldn't help but search her memory carefully and came up with a plan. She had never actually tasted borscht, she only knew that it was a Russian flavored soup. It was said that it was made with a special
Red soup made from Russian wild vegetables.
However, Yagi Sekssai did not respond to her, and Fujimaru Ritsuka smiled awkwardly and said: "Actually, I have never drunk borscht. The last time I saw borscht was in the anime, I saw Sousuke drink it once."
"ah……"
Matthew froze like a cat that had been splashed with water.
In fact, she wanted to suggest it to Yagi Yukisai. Now that she thinks about it, she actually used the term "senpai" to refer to Fujimaru Ritsuka and Yagi-senpai to refer to Yagi Yukisai. Today she blurted it out without adding a last name, which completely caused confusion.
.
"And, most importantly, there is no basic ingredient of borscht here. That is Russian beets."
Ding Xiaowan held a whole duck in her hand and responded while deboning it.
"Ahaha...sorry."
Matthew bowed his head slightly and apologized.
"Speaking of which, Yagi-senpai, let's make jelly! Jelly! You see, it's a cooking showdown and soup, so let's make jelly!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka suddenly thought of something and suggested this.
"I very much agree with your idea, Comrade Fujimaru. I'll go look for cantaloupe."
Yagi Xuezai couldn't help but smile and agreed with his face.
"Huh? Jelly isn't soup, is it? Besides, why use cantaloupe?"
The three people present chuckled. Only Mashu and Chiron, two people who had not had much contact with Japanese animation, looked at each other, wondering what the hell they were talking about.
In fact, this is a famous scene in a famous food animation.
Moreover, the jelly they are talking about is actually condensed soup stock. It is not a jelly.
"It's a pity that you haven't seen it. It's a very interesting cooking animation. When I was a kid, I listened to the Chinese-dubbed version. I always thought it was a Chinese animation... I also cook because I admire the characters in it.
Woolen cloth."
Ding Xiaowan teased the green onions while peeling away the dirt-stained outer skin to reveal the pure-colored green stalks inside.
The girl with black shawl hair lowers her head and works seriously. The combination of her neat skills and palace gauze gives people a sense of being out of place.
"Ah, I understand. When I was a kid, I thought the same thing when I saw that shiny dish. Then I started to go to the kitchen to fry buns, and then I found that I couldn't laugh no matter how I fried them."
Yagi Xuezai couldn't help but recall his childhood, and simply didn't even choose the ingredients.
"Ah, I understand too! That animation is full of memories for me. It was also because of this that I had a fondness for lobsters back then!"
Fujimaru Ritsuka also nodded vigorously and agreed.
Mashu made a note in his mind that Fujimaru Ritsuka liked lobster, and then suddenly noticed that the topic had gone astray, and quickly tried to bring it back: "Seniors, let's go off topic! Aren't we discussing what to cook?"
"Ah!!" x2
Yagi Yukisai and Fujimaru Ritsuka both showed shocked expressions...
These two people were so obsessed with the topic of animation that they forgot about this!
Although this singularity seems strange no matter how you look at it, and it is normal that you cannot take it seriously, this is too far off topic!!
"Well, I can understand the uncertainty about everything, but you still have to decide early on what to do."
While saying this, Ding Xiaowan filled the pot with the ingredients with water and put it on the gas stove to cook.
That's the soup made after taking apart the duck's skeleton.
She mainly wanted to make something with duck meat. In China, this is a very common way of eating, especially in roast duck restaurants. After ordering roast duck, most stores will ask you whether the duck rack should be fried directly or made.
Soup.
By the way, Ding Xiaowan still remembers that when she was a child, the duck rack soup was included in the price of the duck. But now when she eats it, she finds that it seems to have been taken out separately. So she always asks the store to pack the duck rack and goes back by herself.
Make soup. But she hasn’t been to restaurants much since she grew up.
"Hey? Miss Ding, have you started making soup?"
Only then did Matthew notice that while everyone was talking, this agile Chinese female servant had already taken care of the things in her hands and started cooking. Chinese food is world-renowned, and it seems that people from the country of delicious food
It's just different.
"Ah? Ah, this, this is not for the competition! Didn't the orange-haired girl over there say she was hungry just now? Anyway, we haven't decided yet, so let's make something to eat first."
As she spoke, she tore the duck meat into small pieces, covered it with sauce, and prepared to grill it. This is a very common way of eating in Japan called "teriyaki".
The teriyaki only cooked duck meat, and it would be a pity to throw away the duck bones, so she simply made a pot of duck soup.
Mashu secretly sighed at her carefulness. Even she almost forgot that Fujimaru Ritsuka mentioned that she was hungry before, but she still remembered it!
The flames soared that Chiron bent down and looked at the gas stove curiously.
Although he has modern knowledge, he probably still finds it magical. After all, in the ancient Greece where he lived, the use of fire by humans was a very rare thing. After all, there is a legend about Prometheus stealing fire.
By the way, according to some Greek myths, Chiron was shot by a poisonous arrow again and when he was worse than dead, he offered to bear the torture on Prometheus's behalf.
In the era he lived in, there certainly wasn't such a convenient stove.
"I really want Prometheus to see it too."
Chiron murmured and sniffed, a rich fragrance began to float in the air.
Generally speaking, it takes a while from the time you start making the soup until the aroma comes out. However, Ding Xiaowan seems to be able to control the ingredients, and the cooking is very fast from the beginning to the preparation.
(It’s about retaining skills. It’s similar to cooking skills, the ability to correct cooking behavior.)
Chiron analyzed calmly.
In fact, there are indeed some servants who are particularly good at cooking and will take their cooking skills with them as a way to retain their abilities.
In other words... this little girl is truly a Servant. Although she seems to be completely unaware of it.
Fujimaru Ritsuka had been hungry for a long time. When she heard her reminder, her stomach growled even more unsatisfactorily and she refused to listen. The girl's face turned red with embarrassment. Ding Xiaowan laughed:
