We talked about dinner
“Uhh, how much did you get?”
“I bought everything that I could from the merchant. It should be enough for everyone to eat for dinner.”
“I see…”
“Do you have any idea, Mr. Takumi? Though, I know that I should not rely on you so much…”
“If I can help you in any way, then I would be glad to. Indeed… Have you tasted it yet?”
“Yes. When I bought it. Though, it did not taste particularly good or bad to me. Though, the texture was interesting.”
It was true. it was just hardened soy extract, after all. It would not be that delicious on its own.
So, what to do… I only knew very simple recipes that I had found online.
If we had soy sauce, bonito flakes and green onions… It was simple but good. But I doubted they had all of that here.“Ms. Helena. I suppose the rest of the dinner dishes will be very flavorful?”
“Yes. There will be hamburger steaks in sauce and cheese.”
I looked to the side and saw that the other cooks were making them now.
“Ah, I want to help!”
“Haha. Sorry, Ms. Helena. But could Liza help too?”
“Yes, I don’t mind. Can one of you stay with her?”
“Yes, I will do it.”
“Liza?”
“Yes. Thank you. I will help you…”
“Hoho. So Mr. Takumi must have taught you then.”
And so I left Liza with the cooks and focused on the tofuu again.
“While there was a simple way of eating it that I liked, we do not have the ingredients… So why not put it in the salad?”
“Salad… Hmm. That might work. Is that why you asked about the other food being tasty?”
She understood at once why I had suggested it.
“Since the meat will have a very strong taste, it is best to have a salad that is more light and refreshing. Though…that means we will have to choose the right dressing.”
“Are the vegetables ready?”
“Yes, we cut up some vegetables and cooked them.”
“Then you should use them to make the salad.”
“Certainly.”
While I could make suggestions, it was not me who cooked it in the end. Besides, I was not good and would only get in their way.
“Mr. Takumi. The salad is ready. And here is the dressing.”
“Let me taste it…”
While waiting, I watched Liza, who was happily making the hamburgers.
And then Ms. Helena brough the bowl of salad and the dressing.
I picked up a spoon and tasted it.
…It looked like some kind of Italian dressing and had bacon in it. But the taste was different. And it smelled like olive oil?”
“It is lighter than I expected.
“Yess. As you suggested, I made it lighter than usual. Though, the smell might be a little strong…”
Well, even if the olive oil was stronger, it would be fine with the salad. Along with the vinegar, it should make for a fine dressing.
“It will also be more mild with the tofuu.”
After all, the sooy had its own smell as well.
Now, we just had to mix it all together.
