Although I don’t know why, after hearing Kyle Rath’s words, my first reaction was that it was not easy to see Kel Rath like this.
I don’t know where this nonsensical idea came from, but from a logical point of view, it’s like trying to do cross talk while giving a speech at some kind of international conference.
"...I don't really want to know why, but there's probably no hidden danger."
"Of course not!" Kyle Russ patted me on the back several times, "If there was really a hidden danger, wouldn't it have been exposed long ago?"
Your words will only make me more worried.
"Prepare something to order."
“As always, let’s have a menu to appetize...”
"No." I took the menu and patted Kyle Russ's head gently, "Don't think that I don't know that you don't need to consume such a large amount of food to maintain your magic power. To say so is just to satisfy your tongue. want."
"Hey -" Kyle Russ said, seemingly dissatisfied, "Boss Lin, I am your regular customer, can't I satisfy such a small request?"
She turned her head, put her hands on her chin, and looked at me with a seemingly pleading look.
Hmm...just like a puppy.
Although she is indeed a dog.
But being cute has no effect on me for the time being, or I’m immune to it now.
"You should at least take care of my inventory." I sighed. "Although the economic situation is indeed much better now, if I eat too many ingredients at once, I will be troubled by going back and forth to replenish the inventory."
"Hey! Obviously there aren't many people in your store."
"There may be quite a few recently." I said calmly, "So from now on, I have to disguise myself."
Kellas was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his chin and said, "Although that's true..."
"To make up for it, there's a special dish today."
Kyle Russ seemed to have both eyes shining: "Oh oh oh oh!! Is it true?"
I paused with my hands for a moment, then said, "To put it simply, it's hot pot."
"Although Teresa has already joined our big family, if you think about it, there is no welcome ceremony, so it's better to make it up now."
When we walked into the kitchen, Teresa seemed to have not heard what I said and was still talking about cooking.
But after all, he was still too young, so he couldn't hide his feelings well.
I looked at her hands that seemed a little unsteady and smiled helplessly.
"What we are going to eat today is a slightly special dish."
I started with this sentence.
"It has some special meaning in my hometown."
He took out the iron pot from the cabinet, and then took out the bone broth he had prepared earlier.
Although it is a different world version of hot pot, the seasonings are completely inconsistent, but during this period of adventure, I have collected a lot of unique spices from other places, which can be used as hot pot base.
"Hey, well, I will be very good..." Teresa said cautiously.
"It represents harmony." I smiled slightly, "and tolerance."
"I wanted to say these beautiful words a long time ago, but it never seemed like the right time. Now that the hotel's income is more stable, I can almost say it."
I felt like a gentleman and extended my hand, then smiled and said, "From now on... we are a family."
"Hey, but I, uh-" Teresa waved her hands in a panic, her face suddenly glowing red.
"Hug, I'm sorry, although I'm still too young, but I will try my best..." Teresa tilted her face to one side and said a little uneasily.
"...It's just a normal invitation!!" The corners of my mouth, which were originally smiling, couldn't help but twitch.
So what kind of strange views on education are the demons experiencing? ! !
"Huh? Could it be that, but, uh, but I, uh-" Teresa waved her hands wildly, and inexplicable steam came out of her head.
Teresa's face was red and she backed away in confusion. I scratched my cheek awkwardly and said, "Although we are family, we are not family to that extent."
Of course, if you carefully recall what I just said, it seems that something is indeed a little bit wrong.
What's more, I don't want to be opened the door.
"That, that!" I tried to change the lost topic back to what I wanted to do in the first place, "Hot pot is a very powerful food, uh, that's not right, it should be said to be a cooking method. In short, it's a A cooking method that can transform decay into magic!!!”
"Now let's prepare the hot pot base!"
"Huh? Okay, yes, yes!" Teresa stood up straight and looked at me like a conditioned reflex.
It seems useful...
Thanks to previous teachings.
Although this result seems a bit strange now, it is at least effective in alleviating the current situation.
I casually used shaping magic to turn the pot into the shape of a mandarin duck pot, and then taught Teresa all the seasonings I used before.
Of course, I only told her the name and appearance temporarily. As for how to use it, she still needs to be taught separately.
Having said that, this is probably a small stove or something, right?
All in all, after all the fuss, things calmed down for the time being.
After solving the problem of base material, it is time to prepare the ingredients.
To be more precise, cut the meat.
Because there is no such convenient thing as a meat slicer in this world, all the ingredients are cut by expensive hand.
Hmm... In a sense, it can be regarded as the most expensive representative of the past.
"You can't cut the meat too thick, otherwise it will turn into ordinary broth."
"Be careful that the water in the hot pot is always boiling."
"Of course the seasonings will change, but in most cases the taste can be determined by the amount of chili added."
"Actually, there should be Sichuan peppercorns, but I couldn't find any suitable substitute..."
Teresa nodded slightly, seeming to have entered a learning state, and the embarrassment just now disappeared: "I understand."
That's fine.
I breathed a sigh of relief, held the handle of the pot with a towel and carried the pot to the lobby.
"Kyle Russ, it's time to eat!"
The next second I said these words, Kyle rushed over with a loud "ouch", looked at the pot in my hand with bright eyes and shouted: "Oh oh oh! This, thorny, This is it! A new, spicy, dish!!! I’ve been asking about the flavor since just now!”
"Wait a minute, don't get so close, don't look inside the pot! Your saliva will drip in!!!"
