Transition to Another World, Landmines Included

121 Make a sauce! Rita no zu (2)

"Is the place good here?

"Right. Here's the thing..."

Me and Yuki back from the store were building two buildings in the corner of the garden.

One is a smoked cabin. With Natsuki's instruction of knowing the structure, next to the Toya's blacksmith shed I built the other day (even though there's just a small furnace in about three tatami), I make this another small cabin with dirt magic.

I don't know about seismic standards. In the unlikely event of an earthquake, this is likely to collapse, but I don't live there, and the roof is ok if only the rain is prevented, and the structure is quite thin, so I won't be injured if it falls. If it's us.

To the extent I asked someone in the city here in the first place, they only know about earthquakes with knowledge, so there's almost no chance of them happening.

Besides, if it breaks down, it's easy to rebuild, so there's no reason to go through the hassle.

"Sounds good. You can handle cold, warm, or hot incense."

"Heh, there's that kind of smoking?

"Yes, it's funny how they make a difference, isn't it?

The other is a timber storage area.

As long as the trunk part is sold as is, the branch part will need to be sold as wood, firewood, smoked chips, and treated.

building for this purpose.

It's a little spacious here, but it's just a cabin, so there's nothing special about it.

In the meantime, they simply keep the harvested branches in their huts.

These will be appropriately timed and processed.

"Inspirational sauce, departure, table, meeting ~! More and more!"

After lunch, we took a relaxing breath.

It was Yuki after all that one of them stood up and exhaled pneumonia.

"For those who become first prizes, there are luxury prizes! - I wish there was?

I laughed bitterly at Yuki for putting her neck up while she said that.

"You're weak at once, Yuki? Don't you have any prizes?

"There's nothing I can offer you! Hulka, you got anything?

"I don't care what you say... there's nothing I can offer you. - One favor for the winner, what makes Yuki come true?

"Well, that won't cost you! But just me?

"He's the originator?

"Well, that's true ~. Let's at least make sure the winner can do one favor. It would be sad if I won."

"... well, isn't that good? Is that good for everyone?

"Yeah, well, this face would be nice"

No one will say anything strange, or as a pastime.

Natsuki and Toya also nodded with the same look that they said was okay.

"So who do we show off from?

Where two pieces of each made sauce were lined up on the table, and a lot of small plates were prepared, and I said so and looked around at them all, it was Hulka who responded.

"I think it's good for anyone, but should we go from me? Let's start with" A. "

Take the sauce from the lid opened by Hulka into a small plate one by one and turn it to everyone.

The color is... black. Compared to previous items. Viscosity is also high.

Take a little sip of that with a spoon.

"Sweet! What is this!?"

Because it was completely different from the flavor I had imagined, I accidentally got a voice.

I imagined it was sweet and spicy, but this is purely sweet.

"You're like black honey. It tastes a little different than sugar, though."

"Hulka, what did you put in? Sugar's expensive, isn't it?

Hulka's response to Yuki with a strange look was unexpected.

"Actually, I only put this in imo. And only one kind."

Is this just the taste of imo...

I did hear that imo gives sweetness, but it is more than I imagined.

"It's a little different from the sauce, but it's high in sugar. Here, it seems to have a lot of use"

"It's delicious to lick as it is!

"Compared to sugar, it's creepy, but it's a precious sweetness."

It would be difficult to simply use it instead of sugar, but if the ingredients are imo, it is easy to use.

I want the Hulkas to make sweets.

"Sounds like a success for once. Next, this for B"

"This one smells tough before I eat it."

The color looks black after all, but if you lick it... this one doesn't taste very good.

Slightly sweet, but strong aroma anyway.

A few more stimuli. It feels tingly and clearly cannot be said to be delicious.

"This is a sauce with garlic and onion. I've been thinking about using this for cooking..."

"Perhaps it would be better to use it like flavored oil."

"It's the type of seasoning that makes the dish taste good one step at a time, just mixing it up a little bit."

I didn't get the impression that I ate it as it was, but for the people who cook it, it is highly regarded.

Well, is garlic or something like that?

Eating it as it is doesn't taste good, but if it's in the dish for a bit, you say it strangely increases your appetite, or if it's not enough?

In the meantime, it seems good to judge this one as a success.

"The material is simple, but you make something that works, and that's Halka. Shall I go next? I think you did pretty well, didn't you?

Yuki handed out A and B, both together.

The color is...... A is a light brown, B is blacker than that, and both are rusty.

From a for now.

"... what is it, fruity?

"It's a little different from juice... some... uh-huh."

I have trouble expressing myself, and Toya and I twist our necks.

"Hey, that sounds like grilled meat sauce"

"Ooh! Exactly that. Tastes like diluted grilled meat sauce"

"Tastes like diluted... a bit of a failure?

Yuki sighs with a sinister face as she licks the sauce herself.

It does taste a little thin to make this a BBQ sauce. Would that be enough if it boiled?

"Wouldn't it taste so good if you mixed this with previous inspirational sauces?

"Right. I think it's a good idea to have a flavor variation, huh?

"Um, right. But my destiny belongs to B! Try it!

As recommended by confident Yuki, I'll lick B.

- Mmm!

"This is Wuster Sauce! Looks like it!"

"Heh heh heh, looks like you made it this way! Good luck, because I looked for the same ingredients as Uster Sauce and tried to put them in!

Now Yuki also tasted convincing, licking the sauce herself with a full grin.

"... hold on, Yuki. Did you get tomatoes for Uster sauce?

"Yeah! I found it!

"What!? Then can you make ketchup too?

I like ketchup a lot.

I want you to make it if you can.

"No, what do you say? What I found was dried tomatoes and...?

"Dried tomatoes... there's nothing you might not be able to make..."

To Yuki's answer, Hulka twists her neck with a slightly sinister look.

"And, Halka, do you know how to make tomato ketchup? Regardless of the tomato puree, I think it would be difficult to make it taste that way..."

"You have that, don't you? I know tomatoes and sugar, but other spices are difficult."

"I think most of them are two of them, because a little spice would be the deciding factor."

Flowing from the topic of sauce to the topic of ketchup, Yuki points his mouth at the two people who started the debate and pokes a tung about Hulka.

"Hey, hey, not ketchup, but my made sauce, you want me to talk about it?

"Oh, isn't that good?

To Yuki, who seems a little dissatisfied, Hulka replies softly.

"Light!? I thought about it a lot and made it!

"Because that's what it tastes like. Hey?"

"Well, you are. It's a regular sauce."

"It feels like a derivation of the sauce so far, I'm not surprised,"

Hulka asks us to agree and we snort normally too.

It's usually delicious, but I'm not surprised. It's the sauce, doesn't it?

In one way or another, I feel more comfortable now that I have the sauce of choice that seems difficult to make first.

To be honest, if it's Uster Sauce, I'm willing to make it without Inspirational Sauce.

"Ku...... I did my best!

"Neither Yuki's sauce was surprising."

"I can't deny it, but it's pretty bad, Natsuki..."

"Because of this, I need to take an adventure. So I'm next, right? I used something a little unexpected. I'm worried if you can."

Saying so, both sauces handed out by Natsuki are even more subtle than the sauces made by Yuki.

The colour is light brown and transparent. Is the color slightly darker with a?

Put it on your finger for a second, Peroli.

"-!"

"Hey, is this soy sauce!?"

It was Yuki who raised her voice.

I didn't raise my voice either, but the first impression I felt was soy sauce.

If you taste it well again, the aroma is a little different, and it does taste different from soy sauce, but it is very similar to the degree of substitutability.

"You've gone better than I imagined. No, it was the original..."

"This, what's the ingredient?

"It's just wheat and salt. As it was, it was too dry, so I crushed it after steaming it once."

Can something interesting be done without thinking about weird details and using specialized materials?

It was also characteristic to say that only the imo made by Hulka.

"Whoa, this one looks miso!

"If you're B, it's a bean. This one boiled, then crushed, and I knew I'd only add salt."

Toya licks the B's and raises her voice.

If I lick it too, it does taste like miso.

But the sauce is complete liquid. The miso is dissolved in water, not something like that, but a liquid like sauce.

I feel quite uncomfortable just because I have an image of miso.

"This looks good for regular dishes, but it's hard to use like a morsel."

"Er... how about staining it with, say, dried rice? Doesn't that sound like it?

"That could be good. There's going to be a wide variety of dishes."

Thankfully, soy sauce and miso flavored dishes are likely to increase in the future.

But I didn't know you could get soy sauce and miso, not to say.

Because raw materials use similar objects, except for the short fermentation time, it's not unlikely... lucky.

"Shall I go next? It's hard to get out after watching Natsuki's magical."

"No, mine just happened to work, so never mind"

That being said, I just don't feel confident myself.

I open the two lids and stir well.

A seems... kind of thin as a rush?

B smells good with that smelly vegetable. This one is usually thick.

I'm just thrilled that I haven't tasted it myself, but I divide it into small plates and distribute it to everyone.

What is the rating...?

"Ugh, this! Slightly sweet but tastes like a sauce diluted with water!

"Well, sweet and salty, not sweet and salty."

"You're falling apart, the flavor. It's an inspirational sauce that can do a lot of things, even if you put it in place."

"As for the source... uh-huh, no, I managed to use it... uh-huh"

In the meantime, the source of A is scattered in ratings along with Toya, Hulka and Yuki.

And Natsuki, you don't have to force me to look for a use, do you? If you would normally dismiss it.

I didn't think it would taste good either.

"Nao, what did you let him in?

"I put the root vegetables in the main. For once, it's mixed with salt and spices, right?

"Root vegetables, radishes or something? Is it because it was too watery? Daikon and daikon are mostly water."

Did that make it too thin?

Perhaps if I let it dry, it would have turned out pretty good, but for now, this is a failure.

"The other one... Whoa, this one looks pretty tight, but good, huh?

"Seriously?... Ooh."

I'll lick Toya's words, too, but this one's in proper sauce.

The scent of bereoge bought from the boy is a pretty strong accent, but there's nothing you can't eat.

"You're putting in some pretty smelly vegetables. It's a bit unique, but if you use it for something like a roasted noodle, it might fit you unexpectedly"

"The sauce itself isn't bad, and maybe we should reduce this shitty vegetable a little bit?

"Uh, I knew it was a bad idea to put all the bereoge in"

"Oh, I knew you let me in? Because I sell a lot this time of year, and it's cheap. Because we're strong, we didn't buy it."

"Nao hates celery, so I thought Bereoge couldn't either, are you okay?

"Sure, that's the type of vegetable you wouldn't normally choose"

I just bought it because I chose the method of buying recommendations in each outdoor store.

By the way, the spices I put inside are also recommended.

I did not choose expensive items, so the cost of materials combined is less than 3 large silver coins.

"That's why you let Beleoge in. But if you tweak this, you'll be able to use it."

"Yes, if you tweak the bereoge scissors, it's going to be a delicious sauce"

Oh, I knew you couldn't have a, even adjusted.

Yeah, I knew.

"All right! Tori's me. The concept is a zero-yen dining room!

All of a sudden, you said something uneasy?

"... even the ingredients you throw away you've been looking for?

"No, you can't negotiate like that with me, can you? I've collected it myself. In the woods."

"I think I get it because I'm on TV... in the woods?

It's not that cold, but it's winter now.

There should be a limited amount of ingredients to eat in the woods...... I'm getting even more anxious.

"Well, well, try it - oh?

"Hey, what the fuck!

"No, it was just a little unexpected. You're gonna be okay. I only have something to eat."

The sauce that Toya spilled all the way around and handed out before us...

"That's green."

"Green."

"It's green."

"It's green."

We all say the same word.

But it would be a lie if this sentiment hadn't come up first.

Everything up to now has been brown, no matter how different.

Instead, I thought inspirational sauce would even brown everything.

But this sauce is not vibrant... but it is clearly green.

Everyone gets anxious about that so much difference, they don't get their hands on the sauce, they look at each other.

"... from whom?

"You're a producer here."

"Me? I don't think there's anything I can't eat..."

Toya licks the sauce perky without looking particularly timid while saying so.

At the next moment, Toya became silent for a moment, opened her mouth all over her head and tongued out.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!

"I don't know what you're trying to say, but I understand it's not delicious."

"" "Yeah (yes)" "

That said, you can't possibly not taste it.

I don't lick it with peroli like Toya does, just dip it in the tip of my finger a little bit and try to lick it.

"Spicy! Bitter! And eg!

There is no blue odor against expectations, but if you dare to describe it, it tastes like melting wasabi by dripping tomato juice in bitter coffee.

"Gu... I could have appraised that I could eat"

"Toya, just because you can eat, you threw in a ton of mountain vegetables without even pulling out an ac?

"I washed it and then crushed it in with a food processor"

It was Hulka who told Toya, with an expression of unconvincing, that she was a little frightened.

It is true that mountain vegetables can be eaten, but it needs to be treated when it comes to removing the ac beforehand and turning it into a tempura that does not concern the ac.

Many things are too strong while still raw.

Put it together and put it on a mixer or something...... it is outrageous.

"As far as I'm concerned, I'm concerned about this pain. Did you even find a plant like wasabi?

"Oh. I put the leaves and roots together because I was native"

"Don't let me in! Instead, make sure you keep it normal!

I sell chili, but I still don't have the spiciness of wasabi.

When I say radish is close, it's close, but it's still not like wasabi.

"... and so is that, right? I got some soy sauce stuff, and maybe some meat with wasabi soy sauce?

"I appreciate the merit of wasabi discovery, but I don't have this source. Out of Problem"

"Ma, you know what? I don't even want to eat it. Plus, it's free, so there's no use. Let's go next, next."

Saying so, he opened the other lid of the jaw, which was a stirred toya, but twisted his neck again.

"... hmm?

"Not again!? Not again!

"No, it's okay. Not green this time."

"So what color is it? Yikes!

"Uh-huh, these are the colors."

What was in the dispensed dish was a translucent yellow liquid.

Compared to the source of a, it can be said that it is still close to other inspirational sources......

"Take Toya for now, eat"

"Me again? No, I know what you're trying to say..."

Probably because something happened earlier. I don't suddenly feel like a pepper, Toya dips a little at my fingertips and licks it.

And looking up and savoring for a while, Toya looks strange and twists her neck, this time licking the spoon she used to take out the sauce.

"Toya, what do you think?

"No, uh-huh, I have trouble expressing it. It doesn't taste bad, does it?

To Toya's subtle sentiments, we face each other and each mouth its sauce... this is certainly troublesome.

It doesn't seem to taste...?

"Is this..." Taste "?

"Oh, yeah, that's it! Toya, what did you put this in?

"Is this it? How many mushrooms can you pick in the woods? Mushrooms are the only ones in there. I didn't put anything else in there."

[Appraisal] I guess I can only determine if I can eat it, but this is quite a challenge again.

"That's why. I heard that Benitengdake also contains a large number of flavorful ingredients, and did the mushrooms included have such mushrooms, or were the ingredients amplified?"

"I can't say this is a sauce again, but it looks like it could be used as a condiment"

"It's called chemical seasoning."

"O of flavor" or something like that?

No, I'm making it from mushrooms, and the shiitake mushroom broth is closer?

"Chemical seasoning...... isn't that good for your health?

"That's not true, is it? Some of these demeanours also flow, but chemically synthesizing flavorful ingredients such as inosinic acid and glutamic acid... No, is the brewing closer? Because I just extracted it."

Harka shook her head and denied Toya's doubts.

And as I agree with that, Natsuki and Yuki also nod and open their mouths.

"Right. If that doesn't work, then aging and fermentation can't produce amino acids."

"Rather, if used well, it's good for your health, isn't it? Because it will be delicious to eat even if the salt is reduced for the flavor."

"Ma, I really think it would be best to pull stock well without using that stuff, but isn't it cruel to tell busy people to do that?

For the Hulkas, who were still students when they were in Japan, the meals were not made every day, so they didn't seem to have had a chance to use them, but they didn't deny using them.

What Toya made this time is like mushroom stock, and I'm going to use it if necessary.

If you can eat something delicious, I have no problem with it.

I want you to do your best.

"Well, we're all done announcing... shall we vote by show of hands? Who thinks Natsuki is number one!

Hulka's words immediately raise a hand other than Natsuki.

This will not be debatable.

Me and Toya are out of the question.

Hulka's stuff is a little different than the sauce, and Yuki is slightly unfinished on one side.

On the other hand, both the nutty sauces were ready to use and close to our familiar flavors.

Most importantly, I appreciate more food variations.

"Me, sir?

"You won't complain. Honestly, soy sauce would be appreciated. Even if you want to cook Teriyaki or something to suit your bread, you can't do it without soy sauce."

"Salt and pepper. I'm tired of meat."

"I thought Yuki's grilled meat wasn't too bad, but I need another flavor."

"I'd love to have some pork braised in horns or some spare ribs. I'm hoping."

"Thank you. Well, thank you. Let me use your rights again at some point."

Praise from all (?), Natsuki smiled happily and responded so.

I'm also anxious to know when the right to ask will be used, but, well, it's not decided to use it against me, and Natsuki wouldn't have anything to worry about.

If Toya had gotten it, 'it's hard for the women to use' and there's a good chance I could do something weird.

"Next, the ranking of cost performance. Naturally, Toya is the top, Natsuki is the next, unexpectedly, almost as bad as Nao and I are, and Yuki is the worst for smashing."

"Huh!? Such a ranking -"

"There's no other punitive game, but for once. Yuki, a little too much"

Toya, who hasn't spent any money, is probably the top of the list.

Natsuki is also cheap because it is just wheat and beans.

I thought Hulka was cheap because one of them was just imo, and it seemed to be about as good as me.

Was garlic expensive or was my ingredient cheap?

Speaking of Yuki, they used it to the point where it didn't reach two critical gold coins.

"The B one was cheaper, except for the dried tomatoes, but it took a lot for the A one. Fruits are expensive after all."

"If you look at the dindle, you'll understand, but it's a luxury."

"A...... BBQ sauce? I don't know how to not make it."

"I guess I'll see when the fruit is cheap and make it, or I'll tolerate that kind of luxury. The only thing I made this time is for the time being, and I don't think we'd have a problem with about two pieces of gold."

Even though it's expensive, it's less than 2 pieces of gold.

It is about 1.5 liters in size, so do you have a sauce of regular size grilled meat for sale in the supermarket, about 5 bottles?

Normally I would do about 10 times that, it would be a pretty fancy sauce, but given the small amount of money we make and spend, it would be an acceptable amount.

"But Teriyaki... Teriyaki Chicken... When this happens, don't want raw vegetables"

Thanks to the inspirational sauce, I am able to eat delicious burgers, but I refrain from eating raw vegetables, so I am a little short.

I haven't eaten raw vegetable salad, and I just want to do something about it.

And it was she who listened to me like that, after all.

"Well, with raw vegetables? So..."
