A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World

"Well, the difference in soup, you see?

Takeo asks everyone.

"Uhm. Is it something that makes so much difference?

"They were both delicious, but it was fun to make a difference.

"I also knew Bouillon was the only ingredient in the soup, so it was delicious, unlike always.

"It's pretty low cost compared to Bouillon, and you can taste that.

I felt the food was deep.

This one seems to be well received by all four of us.

"Mr. Elvis... do you really understand?

Takeo says with a bitter smile.

"Um... you know it's delicious, right?

"Ha, enough.

Well, then I'll show you a little more knowledge.

"" Yes.

Alice and Smith reply.

"There are several kinds of flavors, but what is recognised here?

"Er... it's sweet, isn't it?

Alice says as she ponders.

"Will the spicy taste be the same?

Smith also says.

"Is there anything else?

Everyone thinks "um..." but nothing comes up.

"Sweet, sour, salty, bitter, spicy, tannic, irritating, tasteless... well, there's a lot going on.

In large part it can be sweet, sour, salty and bitter.

"I see.

Grandpa Elvis and Frederick nod.

"So which will the taste of today's soup go into?

"... is it salty?

Smith answers.

"Okay, let's make it.

And, Takeo somehow has salt and soup dishes and water in the guest room to make thin, salty water.

"... why is it available??

Alice says in dismay.

"Ha, I've got it for explanations while you're all on your way to the dining room.

Takeo laughs bitterly.

and that Smith with saline in his mouth

"It's soggy.

and say what you think.

"Yes, that's right.

Okay, Smith boy. This is the saltiness... is it the same as the earlier soup?

"Not at all!

"Right.

As for the flavour of the stock I served this time, it was initially recognized only in the country where I was.

"Hmm? What do you mean?

"It's easy.

It was a common recognition that it was based on the four earlier flavors in another country, so it didn't recognize the other flavor.

"Hmm? I guess there was actually one in other countries, too?

"It seems there was, but the culinary unions and kings didn't approve.

"... weird.

"If we had the idea that our perceptions were the most correct, we would crush the other opinions that came out later.

"That's not what happened where Takeo was?

"Yeah, especially.

Originally, like earlier, it's a food culture that makes stock from small fish, right?

It is not included in any of the flavors that I raised earlier, but it has an important flavor because I actually ate it.

"I see.

"So, this flavor, but I say 'good flavor'.

"What is it? What's that name??

Alice asks.

"Huh? Problem??

"What... wasn't there anything else?

"I think you're getting a target?

It's 'good' because it's not salty, sour or sweet, it's a delicious flavor.

"... when they say that... right.

"It's this good flavor, but it's also in gravy and stuff.

It would be delicious to eat freshly baked meat with salt, wouldn't it?

The same goes for the delicious taste of meat and salt, but when the delicious taste is combined and freshly baked, it feels even better.

"I see.

The four snort.

"My country has always liked to eat good food when it comes to food.

Takeo says with a couscous laugh.

"It's a good culture.

Is that stock going to be available in the future?

"Yes, it's low cost, so I was wondering if I could turn the budget on the other ingredients.

Frederick answers.

"So how was the steaming of the tea bowl?

"It was my first texture.

It did resemble a pudding.

"It was delicious.

"I already enjoyed my meal.

"The mountain stuff and the sea stuff, you surprisingly matched.

Favourable from everyone.

"I think steaming a tea bowl is a good idea to eat while it's warm.

It can be tough as a kitchen because it's the last time you start making it.

"I'm going to leave that area to George.

"Yes.

And, Miss Alice, Smith boy. How was the shrimp?

"I thought I was firmer and tastier than I imagined.

"It was my first, too, but it went well with the taste of steamed tea bowls and it was delicious.

Listen to the ratings of the two. Grandpa Elvis and Frederick are horrified.

"Really, that was good.

I happen to have bought it this time, but it's still pricey, so I guess I won't be able to put it on the table very often.

"Right.

As Takeo said, there's also a high price, so you won't be able to get it out frequently...

Maybe you can use it as an ingredient for dinner when you can afford it.

"I'm looking forward to seeing what food comes out.

Alice said happily.
