Author Pre-word
The continuation of the daily life.
The questionnaire is still up!
It surprised me that the impressions of my writing suddenly went up!
Well, here is daily life 4.
——————————————————
After I arrived at the kitchen, I begun to ponder what I should be making for breakfast.
[Let’s make a light meal this morning. Bread and salad……and corn potage? That should be enough.]
It’s a really breakfast-ish light meal.

STEP 1 Making the bread.
The process to make a loaf of bread is as follows. Prepare the ingredients, make the dough, knead it, fermentation (1st round), split it and shape it into a round ball, fermentation (2nd round)/bench time, mold it and finally, bake it. That’s the way to do it.
Although there are other smaller details when creating bread such as creating small cuts while benching it (2nd round), I’ll leave those out.
All the information I got was from the【Disordered Information Network】.
Hmm? It’s been a long time since I mentioned that skill? Well, I guess so.
I bake this prided bread of mine in the morning, afternoon and at night. Since it’s a waste to have bread left over, I only bake on order. However……..
Uhn, this process known as fermentation really takes a long time…… (TL ; +/- 5 hours if i remember correctly)
In this world that didn’t have soft, fluffy bread, things like yeast didn’t even exist. Therefore, I had to create my own natural yeast. When I was able to make a yeast that was considered satisfactory, I tried to make bread but………
But this natural yeast…….compared to the yeast that is used and produced by the earth, the power of the mushroom is overwhelmingly insufficient. At the very best, to make bread, it needs at least 12 hours of fermentation.
Back then, I was endlessly frustrated over it. I had thought that this recipe could be well received by the local bakeries, and practiced.
I seriously apologize to all of the original otherworlders that I mocked in the past.
This could be even more troublesome than trying to monopolize the market myself.
And so it is for this reason that I want everyone to understand that making bread is really time-consuming. (TL : you know what else is time consuming? Eating a clock.)
So, with this kind of conditions, how did I manage to make bread on the order?
Well, I used magic.
After making the bread dough by kneading it quickly, I make the dough into a ball and cast magic onto it.
【Time Compression】
It’s a magic that can accelerate time around an object in a fixed s.p.a.ce. There is no one who can use this magic except for me. (ED: I need this for my studies. Seriously.)
……As to why I know this, maybe I’ll tell you some other time. (ED: this author breaks the fourth wall too much this chapter.)
Right now, I have to focus on making the bread.

Step 2 Making corn potage. (ED: Potage is a form of soup. Popular in j.a.pan from vending machines.)
This step is for creating the main meal, corn potage.
Since the bread only needs to be baked after this, I set it aside while casting 【Preservation】magic on it.
Does everyone know how to make corn potage? It is surprisingly easy to make.
First, stir-fry some chopped onions.
