Shokugeki: Start with an izakaya, making everyone cry

The night is deeper!

The road is like a smooth river, winding in the shadow of dense trees.

The breeze blew gently, making the leaves rustle.

Although a glass of fresh and mild sake cannot eliminate all worries, it can often soothe the restless mind.

"Leonora, are you still used to living in Yuanyue during this time?"

Putting down the wine glass, the commander asked softly.

"The living habits here in Neon Country are very different from those in Northern Europe. I am slowly getting used to it, right?"

"However, I am very happy to be able to live with my daughter!"

Leonora, who was sitting on the soft sofa, said calmly.

"Oh!"

Commander-in-Chief, nodded.

His eyes were a little deep, and then he asked: "I heard that you went to visit Alice and the others at the izakaya?"

"Yes, I went to an izakaya on the night of the first day of field training."

When Leonora heard this, she carefully recounted what she saw and heard at the izakaya that night, especially the performances of Erina, Alice, and Hisako!

……

In fact, Leonora didn't know about it when she wasn't in Totsuki.

Since she returned to Yuanyue before the autumn selection and lived there for nearly two months, she has gradually gained a deeper understanding of the Chaliao Cuisine School, which represents the number one place in Neon Country!

Today's Totsuki Academy is probably in deep water, and the situation may change if one is not careful.

As the gourmet devil and the most influential figure in the Neon Kingdom's culinary world, the commander-in-chief's status is absolutely deeply rooted in Yuanyue, and he must also have huge power hidden in private.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, no one can shake him!

However, don't forget.

Yuanyue's education system is destined to cause irreconcilable conflicts among students.

The Yuanyue Ten Heroes, who represent the highest combat power, are ostensibly directly subordinate to the commander-in-chief and are responsible for the operation and evaluation of all affairs within the entire academy.

Even lecturers and professors such as Chapelle and Jun Shiomi must follow their opinions.

Therefore, this excessive laissez-faire of power may lay the foundation for disaster in the future!

The only thing that is certain is that the Totsuki Academy will be turbulent in the future, with overt and covert struggles. In this situation, it is an opportunity for Erina and Alice!

Especially Nakiri Erina, she has the talent of God's Tongue. When the time comes, she should be able to stand out and even replace Nakiri Senzaemon.

……

"Commander, there is an undercurrent surging now."

"Perhaps you have realized it a long time ago, so you took advantage of the opportunity of field training to let Erina and Alice go to the izakaya for internship?"

"If my guess is correct, you have long wanted to give up the position of commander-in-chief to Erina?"

Leonora stared at the commander in chief, her eyes becoming sharp.

The commander-in-chief nodded with a wry smile and said: "It turns out that I can't hide it from you. I do have the idea of ​​abdicating my position in favor of someone more worthy."

"Actually, I have always had better candidates than Erina."

"You must know who this person is."

"Zhang Fan?"

Leonora was stunned.

"Yes, it's just that he doesn't seem to be interested in Yuanyue's affairs."

"In other words, he has long expected that Yuanyue will have changes in the near future, so he doesn't want to stir up this muddy water, right?"

Commander-in-Chief, he said something meaningful.

"I really didn't expect that, Commander-in-Chief, you would actually..."

"Surprising?"

"Actually, some things don't need to pay too much attention to rules, but are better!"

"It's not a bad idea to leave the future of the entire family to a person with no blood to lead it."

"If I had understood this at the beginning, things like that wouldn't have happened to Erina."

Having said this, the commander-in-chief couldn't help but be silent for a while.

"Right."

Leonora, replied.

"Both of them are my granddaughters. I am very happy to see them making little progress and becoming more sensible."

"No matter what changes may happen in the future, they are the last hope!"

Commander-in-Chief, said.

……

When mentioning palace cuisine, people will inevitably think of abalone, ginseng, wing tripe and delicacies from the mountains and sea.

In many people’s minds, royal banquets are always extravagant and luxurious. Didn’t you know that there is such a home-cooked palace dish:

Pearl Jade White Jade Soup!

of course.

The name of this dish.

Although it sounds nice, it is actually just a simple cabbage and tofu soup.

The reason why this dish is so famous lies in a familiar historical story.

Rumor has it that Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was defeated in Huizhou and had to flee to the Xiuning area.

Because he was hungry, he asked his men to look for food, but they only found some leftover rice, tofu and vegetables.

resignedly.

These foods can only be boiled in water and given to Zhu Yuanzhang!

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang found the taste extremely delicious after eating it, so he asked his entourage what kind of food it was.

The attendant said smoothly that it was called "Pearl (leftover) jade (cabbage) white jade (tofu) soup."

Later, Zhu Yuanzhang successfully ascended the throne and became emperor.

When he got tired of eating delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, he thought of this dish again. But at the moment, Zhu Yuanzhang had already forgotten what it felt like to be hungry. Naturally, this ordinary dish was not as delicious as before.

Therefore, Pearl Jade White Jade Soup has a special meaning!

……

At this moment, there is fresh, tender and smooth tofu on the chopping board.

This tofu is wrapped in a layer of gauze.

After opening it, there is still heat. When you cut it into pieces with a knife, the overall texture looks particularly fresh and white, just like the body of a girl, which is very fascinating!

Then put the fresh tofu into the boiling water and watch it tumbling, sinking and floating along the water. There is no need to make it too complicated.

Soon, the aroma of tofu in the hot air filled the entire izakaya.

For a while.

The heat lingers.

The cabbage is green and the tofu is white, it is clear at a glance.

Pay special attention when serving it up. Use a spatula to scoop out the bottom of the pot and put the soup and tofu into the bowl to make it smooth and fragrant.

The fresh and tender tofu trembled slightly in the bowl, which was pitiful!

……

"Wow!"

"This pearl emerald white jade soup looks very appetizing."

Xiaolin Ringtong looked at the freshly baked pearl emerald white jade soup and couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Judging from the appearance, this bowl of cabbage and tofu soup is very light, with less oil and less salt. The soup is as pure and flawless as white jade.

In terms of fragrance.

The whole dish is very rich and moist with a little vegetable aroma, making it appear extremely warm.
