Chapter 175: Hachiman Cooking (Part II)

"Hachiman, why are you here?"

When he heard this voice, Hachiman already knew who was behind it.

"Sakura, what a coincidence, did you come out to buy something too?"

That's right, it was Sakura who appeared in front of Hachiman at this time.

"Well, I'm helping my parents come out to buy ingredients, and so is Hachiman?"

After hearing Hachiman's question, Sakura nodded slightly.

"Well, there's not much stuff in the fridge, so I'll come out and add a little bit as well. Sakura, have you already bought it? ”

Hachiman asked, looking at the contents of Sakura's shopping cart.

"Well, it's almost there~"

Sakura nodded, affirming Hachiman's words.

"Then Sakura, you can go first, I haven't bought anything yet."

"What else do you want to buy Hachiman, or I'll accompany you~"

"No need, Sakura, it's not good for you to push these things around, you go first~"

"That's... Okay"

Sakura took a look at the things she bought, and she also reacted, it must be very inconvenient for her to run with these things.

"See you next time, Hachiman~"

"Well, see you next time, Sakura~"

The meeting with Sakura is just a small episode in Hachiman's shopping process, and after Sakura leaves, Hachiman continues to pick up ingredients.

Maybe Hachiman arrived too early, or maybe most of the people had gone to the vegetable section, and after a while, Hachiman had already bought all the ingredients he was going to buy, and now he only needed to buy some more vegetables to go back.

With this in mind, Hachiman pushed the shopping cart and walked towards the vegetable section.

After the initial "peak period", there are now fewer people in the vegetable section, and it doesn't take long for Hachiman to find the vegetables he wants to buy.

However, after the initial purchase of some people, the good, fresh vegetables have almost been bought, and the rest are some small or oxidized vegetables.

Hachiman looked at the few broccoli in front of him and couldn't help but think:

If the broccoli in front of you is either relatively small or oxidized, it can be said that these vegetables are not of much use when you buy them back, on the contrary, they may ruin the taste of the food.

Thinking of this, Hachiman almost decided to give up the broccoli as an ingredient and planned to take a look at the other vegetables first.

But after a few minutes, Hachiman was back where he was, and after he had just turned around, he found that the remaining vegetables were almost all of this relatively poor, after all, the good ones had already been picked away.

"Alas~"

Seeing this, Hachiman sighed helplessly, and had no choice but to accept his fate, planning to pick a few good broccoli from them and buy them back, which is often referred to as "pulling the taller from the short".

"This one is too heavily oxidized~"

"This one is too small~"

“………”

Hachiman muttered as he picked vegetables. Even if the rest are poor, Hachiman intends to pick the best of them.

………

Ten minutes later, Hachiman left the supermarket with a few large bags.

At the time of checkout, because the broccoli had oxidized, Hachiman bought a lot of it back for almost no money.

………

"Brother, welcome back~"

"Oh, I'm back~"

As soon as Hachiman entered, Komachi ran out and stared at Hachiman's bag, seemingly interested in what he had been out to buy for half a day.

"Don't look at it, you'll know what I bought when the time comes~"

Hachiman looked at Komachi's looking around, and felt a little funny, although she didn't say it, but she seemed to be very interested in the food he was going to make.

"Brother, just show me, I want to know what my brother will cook~"

Seeing that Hachiman didn't show himself, Komachi immediately rushed forward, grabbed Hachiman's arm and shook it, and said coquettishly.

"Okay, don't shake it, what I'm telling you now will reduce the sense of anticipation in your heart, so you better wait a little bit~"

Seeing Komachi's coquettish appearance towards him, Hachiman screamed "so cute" in his heart, but on the surface he still looked flat and indifferent.

"Cut, if you don't look at it, you won't see it, anyway, Komachi will know in a while~"

Seeing that Hachiman had no feeling for his coquettishness, Komachi seemed to know that his brother wouldn't be able to say it, so he let go of Hachiman's arm and went back to the living room to watch TV.

Seeing that Komachi was finally gone, Hachiman subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, he didn't want to show Komachi, mainly because of the oxidized broccoli in his bag, and he Komachi would be angry when he saw it, so he planned not to let Komachi see it, and planned to find a way to deal with these ingredients himself.

After shoving the ingredients into the refrigerator, Hachiman went to the living room to watch TV with Komachi, and it was still some time away from lunch.

Coincidentally, there happened to be a food program in the program that Komachi watched, this episode was about French vegetable jelly, and when he saw this, Hachiman suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and he seemed to remember a drama he watched before he was reborn, and it seemed that there was a handling technique for dealing with oxidized broccoli.

After thinking about it for a while, Hachiman didn't think about it, he felt that he was still short of the last layer of window paper, but it was this last point that he couldn't remember anyway, until the person on the TV took out a bottle of vinegar......

"I see, I thought about it!"

Seeing a scene on TV, Hachiman shouted a little excitedly.

"What? Brother, what do you think? ”

The small town next to him was very puzzled by Hachiman's shocking behavior, it was just a food show, why did her brother react so much?

"Haha~ nothing, nothing..."

Seeing Komachi's inquiring eyes, Hachiman couldn't wait to find a hole to drill into, and the current situation is really a bit embarrassing~

"By the way, Komachi, are you hungry? Do you want my brother to prepare lunch? ”

Seeing that Komachi still had a hint of doubt in his eyes, Hachiman felt that the topic had diverged.

"Hmm... When my brother said this, Komachi seemed to be really hungry~"

After hearing Hachiman's words, Komachi touched his stomach and said. That expression was so cute......

"Okay, Komachi will sit down for a while, and my brother will go and prepare lunch..."

With that, Hachiman hurried to the kitchen, intending to test his conjecture before lunch, and if his idea was correct, the problem of broccoli oxidation would be solved.

First, Hachiman prepared a pot of hot water, put half a bottle of white vinegar in it, and then put the broccoli in and boiled it.

After about twenty minutes, he noticed that the broccoli had indeed changed color, and the oxidized part had gradually turned into a fresh green...

After verifying that his conjecture was correct, Hachiman began to prepare lunch~

When he first started holding the kitchen knife, it was almost the same as Hachiman had thought, but the feel was already a little rusty, and if he continued like this, his cooking skills would definitely decline.

But fortunately, he found out in time, as long as he cooks every few days, the feeling should be maintained.

After about half an hour, Hachiman made the seafood chowder, and after the initial rustiness, Hachiman regained his senses, so he was still confident in his cooking.

"Komachi, lunch is ready!"

After Hachiman prepared the tableware, he called Komachi for lunch.

Not surprisingly, when Komachi tasted it, he couldn't stop, and at the same time, he was a little amazed, but he didn't expect his brother's cooking skills to be so good, and there was almost no regression.

And seeing Komachi's admiring eyes, Hachiman was still very useful in his heart, and he didn't even let Komachi do it after washing the dishes after dinner, but did it by himself.

………

After that, dinner time went just as well, and after Hachiman solved the problem of oxidation of broccoli, the hot pot was also delicious, and Hachiman once again gained a wave of Komachi's adoring eyes...
