84. Stewed White Fish in Tomato
Lena, Krona's sister, came to the Separation House.
After finishing a street greeting, I was in my room reading the documents on Lena's reception.
"Lena, you look just like Kurona...."
It was also because I remembered nostalgia in my first encounter.
Lena's hair and eyes are the same color as those of Kurona. She looked alike.
The difference with Kurona is that her eyes are slightly dripping?
So, after a few more years of second growth, you'll look just like Kurona.
... but the only thing that looks like you is your face.
Unlike my paced Krona, Lena was serious and polite.
"... maybe in Lena's situation, she couldn't remain childish and innocent..."
"I lost my parents when I was young, and I left my sister, Krona."
Lucian narrowed his eyes at my whisper.
Lucien is from an orphanage without family.
There seemed to be something in the situation of Lena, who had lost her parents.
"Lucian, can you keep an eye on Lena while she's free?
She must be so heartless to be dragged away by this outcast she doesn't know... "
"I understand. I want to be careful not to let her tears fall from her separation."
"Thank you."
... I wish I could take care of Lena.
Unfortunately, Lena has taken a step against me.
When I went out in the dark, it might have been a burden for Lena.
"... me too. I'll do what I can."
After finishing my paperwork, I decide to change and leave the room.
The destination is the familiar kitchen.
"Mr. Gilbert, can I borrow a piece of the kitchen?
"Yes! We have all the ingredients you asked for, so feel free to use them."
Mr Gilbert answered in front of him.
Time will soon be in the evening.
It was time for the kitchen to be in a hurry to prepare dinner.
"I hope Lena will be happy....."
Murmur while checking the prepared ingredients.
The dish I'm about to cook is to welcome Lena.
Lena was supposed to arrive at this separation tomorrow.
The food welcoming her was originally due to be served tomorrow night, which is why I was playing with the wolf today...
There are only plans.
In a world where transport is underdeveloped, it is not uncommon not to go on schedule.
The scheduling of minutes was quite different from the usual Japanese transportation.
The schedule was up, but fortunately, the ingredients for the welcome dish arrived today, so I decided to make them free of charge.
"The main cook is this river fish."
Quickly place the knife and remove the bones and internal organs.
I've been dealing with fish in my previous life, and I've been practicing since I came to this detachment, so it's perfect.
I cut myself to a length of about 5 cm, leaving the skin behind.
The river fish I use are white fish.
Krona used to say that she liked Lena.
Their hometown was close to the river and seemed to be a place where civilians could eat fresh fish.
"Draw the oil, add the garlic, put in the white fish..."
Garlic with a juicy aroma.
When the white fish are baked from the skins, they are seasoned with olive oil and wine.
Lightly stir-fried, thinly sliced onions and boiled crushed tomatoes so as not to scorch the squeaky white fish. Then add several types of herbs and close the lid.
Simmer for a few minutes and shift the lid to see how it goes.
I checked that the alcohol was flying, and it was finished when the flavour was seasoned with salt.
"Stewed White Fish in Tomato, Finished...!!"
The warm air rising up smells like tomatoes.
The stewed tomatoes are tangled with white fish and glowing red.
When I tasted one slice of it, my soft body relaxed.
White fish soaked in the flavor of tomatoes softly loosen up when they stand up.
The scent of herbs and the sourness of tomatoes passed through the body and the juice.
"Yeah, it's delicious. I wonder if you'll enjoy this....?
Though stewed white fish tomatoes were made in previous life, the finer flavors and herb varieties have been adjusted to suit this river fish.
Would Lena like this cuisine, which has been prototyped several times for today?
