"Miso" is actually a mold fermented product made from soybeans as the main ingredient. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

White miso is fermented for a short period of time, so there is a faint sweetness in the soup, but more flavors of soybeans, rice, and wheat. After drinking the soup in one sip, Xia Yu felt that his appetite was awakened, and he couldn't help but sandwich a few more slices of sashimi and eat them with soy sauce.

Soon, the table was swept away, and the kimono maid removed the empty utensils in due course.

Several maids carried a small charcoal stove, on which there was already a boiling pot, and in the pot were some food of plain color and light taste.

"Cooking?" Xia Yu was stunned, thinking back to the appetizers, appetizers and main soup he had eaten before, and suddenly had a guess in his heart about this banquet: it was a kaiseki banquet, and in the kitchen of Nagikiri's house, there was a person who studied 'kaiseki cuisine'!

Kaiseki cuisine has a saying of 'one soup and three dishes', and the boiled vegetables are the second of the dishes, and the boiled dishes are divided among the others, and then, sure enough, after the light main course, the salty fried fish and fried dried fish are served.

Xia Yu picked up a piece of fried dried fish, sent it to the mouth, and chewed it, "Dried sea bass?"

The salty taste has a slight bitterness, and the meat is fatty.

If you eat this dish directly, the taste may be abrupt, but with the light taste of the first two dishes, when you eat this dish, it is unexpectedly refreshing, and the taste is completely awakened.

At this point, the 'one soup and three dishes' of kaiseki cuisine is over.

The maid withdrew, but the dishes continued to be served, and each person was given a plate of "miscellaneous boiling".

Mixed boiling, rich in ingredients, there are pumpkin, prawns, lotus root, okra, as well as small taro, steamed octopus, sprinkled with delicious yuzu powder as a seasoning, just smelling the flavor wafting out, it makes the mouth relish, appetite.

"The finishing touch is here!"

Xia Yu enjoyed the mixed boil, but was looking forward to the last step of the 'kaiseki cuisine'.

This step is called "eight inches", and a platter is made by filling an oversized lacquerware plate with a variety of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and serving them with unique side dishes.

"Gollum~"

Kohei Sojin stared at the large platter in front of him and swallowed his saliva.

Cooked eggs on the outside and tender on the inside.

Pickled mackerel sushi grilled over a charcoal fire.

Grilled barracuda coated in marinated roe meal.

There are also rock pears, dry-fried river prawns, pickled ginger sprouts, etc., there are a variety of delicacies, even Xia Yu, the Adam's apple is quietly moving.

But Xia Yu felt a little strange in his heart, obviously everyone's handwriting, but the food itself was "bland", and thanks to the beauty of the space created by the food utensils, seats, gardens and vases of hanging paintings in the environment, it created a faint Zen atmosphere.

Many neon people believe that in order to taste the truly delicious traditional neon delicacy, you should go to an old store in Kyoto and enjoy kaiseki cuisine while enjoying tea and beautiful gardens.

Originally, "kaiseki" originated from Zen Taoism, and it developed from listening to Zen refreshments, to later inviting guests to taste meals in tea ceremonies, to today's high-end dishes that are common in neon. In any case, the kaiseki banquet is extremely exquisite, and the requirements for tableware and food placement are almost artistic, and they have not changed.

Stretching out the chopsticks to pick up a pickled mackerel sushi and sending it to the mouth to taste, as the food went down, Xia Yuha breathed a sigh of relief, refreshed.

No superfluous gastronomic fantasies.

Simple.

The head and heart are as clear as the twilight sky, unstained with dust.

"It's not a kitchen, is it?"

Xia Yu thought.

He weaves food fantasies with his kitchen heart and is imaginative, while the cooks of 'kaiseki cuisine' take a realistic route, allowing tasters to blend into the spatial environment and sublimate and comprehend in nature.

Which realm is stronger, Xia Yu can't say, but he is at least sure that this chef is everyone, and his cooking skills are much stronger than him.

Vaguely, Xia Yu also tasted a kind of feminine delicacy.

Perhaps, this 'kaiseki' master is still a female chef.

"Iwanashi, ......"

Kohei Soma was beside him, muttering about picking up a peeled orange-yellow fruit that was only the size of a thumb.

"You also know about rock pear?" Erina Nagi glanced over in surprise, "This rare fruit, a neon native plant, grows on the most dangerous cliffs, and the fruit ripens every summer, has the fragrance of pear, and the price is ......"

She paused and stopped talking.

Everyone feasted and finished the platter, and then the pickles and desserts were served, which was the final stage.

The female and the servant disappeared cleanly. The room is quieter, and the people who have enjoyed a sumptuous dinner have closed their eyes or stared at the dishes on the table.

Bang!

A tall and mature beauty in a kimono opens the door, holds the dessert as the finishing touch, and then closes the door and sits down on her knees.

"Uh......" Xia Yu scratched her face and looked at the kimono beauty at the end, almost unrecognizable.

The heroine of the IGO neon department, Ryoko Rina is also.

This time, she wore a traditional dress embroidered on a black background, with an elegant atmosphere, and her black hair was combed and coiled behind her head.

Xia Yu paid attention to her kimono, which is a kind of vibrating sleeves, and neon unmarried women generally use it as a dress to attend important occasions.

The eyes of the two collided unintentionally in mid-air, and Xia Yu winked at her.

"Ryoko Shogun!"

It was Erina Nagikiri, who was very respectful of Ryoko Lina, and said hello seriously.

Neither Kohei Soma nor Maki Morita knew the female grandcook. The two days that Ryoko Rina went to Xia's shop happened to be the time when Maki Morita was busy studying recipes, and the two never met.

Ryoko Rina sat down without saying a word.

Dojima Gin ate a dessert and said refreshedly, "Thank you for your hospitality, Miss Ryoko." ”

"Excuse me, Ryoko. Marshal Yuanyue also nodded to the woman at the end of the seat.

Hearing this, Xia Yu's heart was full of questions.

It is strange that such a heroine as IGO appeared in the Nagi family's house. And listening to the tone of Marshal Tozuki, Ryoko Lina is here, it is not accidental, it is very likely that she was invited.

"Are you still satisfied with this kaiseki feast?" asked Dojima Gingaku.

Xia Yu spread out his hand, "I heard before that Ryoko is the best at 'kaiseki cuisine', and I have the honor to taste it today." ”

As he spoke, he smacked his lips and said helplessly: "It's just that the taste is a little bland, and I don't like it very much." ”

No one expected him to be so straightforward that he would say that he didn't like a special chef's kaiseki banquet.

Erina Nagi stood up suddenly, with an angry look, as if she had been insulted, "Commoner, do you know how much a high-class kaiseki banquet is worth by Lord Ryoko?

Unexpectedly, the tongue of the gods reacted so violently, Xia Yu shrugged his shoulders and said: "When I say bland, I don't mean the taste of the food, but the mind in the food is too light, and I don't feel it when I eat it." ”

Hearing this, Erina Nagikiri's eyes widened, "Are you saying that Lord Ryoko didn't prepare this kaiseki banquet with all his heart?"

"No!" Xia Yu waved his hand, "I can't explain it to you!"

That gesture annoyed Erina, "You, you......"

A chef's heart and whether he does it with his heart are two different concepts.

When Ryoko Lina was preparing for the kaiseki banquet, she obviously put away her 'kitchen heart', which was also Xia Yu's regret.

How does a special chef taste when he really lets go of his hands and feet?

"I haven't had enough to eat either, so let's do it, Miss Ryoko has already shown her skills, so let's go to the kitchen and make a good meal for everyone. How?"

Dojima Silver looked at Xia Yu and finally showed his fox tail.
