56 56 "Gourmet hero vs wise hero" (1/2)
Well, are you ready to go, Fitis?
I'm ready whenever you are. Master, today is the day I'll go over you.
Three days after Kasarina and Fitis' promise of a contest, it's time for their cooking contest.
Finally, the time for their cooking competition has come.
The place is here at Mina Restaurant.
There were three judges sitting on the jury table: the lord of this town, the genius and brave man Shin, and my father, for some reason.
”I know the lord and Shin, but why my dad ......?
That's because I'm the fairest person in the room. It's not fair to you and your girls, and I'm the one who has the most to say about taste.
Well, it certainly makes sense if you ask me.
At any rate, the preparations are now ready and all you have to do is watch each other's every effort, and when the lord gives the signal to begin, the two of you begin cooking, and soon the savory smells are wafting in the air with your bright hands, and both of your dishes are ready.
Then let's have a taste of my food first.
Then Kasarina brought a large bowl with a lid, a small cup-shaped bowl next to it, and a deep green tea. And a cup of deep green tea.
When the judges, including the lord, opened the lid of the bowl, a golden glow appeared from it.
This is--!
Inside the bowl was a small vermilion egg on white rice. There were shiso leaves, egg rolls, kraken legs, and various fish meat arranged in various ways to decorate the vermilion egg, and it was a beautiful bowl of fish and shellfish in a variety of colors.
”That's a seafood bowl...!
Go in with all your might.
Hey, where's the point of cooking eggs? Mr. Kasarina!
Then Ms. Kasarina cut back as if she were whistling.
What do you mean. What do you mean...this is an egg dish. Look! The center of this bowl is a vermilion egg and this is the 'egg' of the colored fish. This is not an egg dish. What do you call it?
It's called salmon roe bowl!
Hey! As expected of a wise man and hero!
As Phytis said before, your skill in bringing your own ring is certainly worthy of the name of the wise and brave man. It's as close to a foul as you can get.
I see, but an egg is an egg. But an egg is an egg. It's not outside the scope of egg cooking, so it can't be considered a foul. Now let's try it.
Then the judges carry a mouthful of colored fish eggs with rice.
At that moment, the faces of the lords were shocked by the deliciousness.
