73 They Cook Rice.



There is a reason why Lianya did not choose the garden for the test operation location of the rice.

This is because Frau has been saying to Lianya and Zion from day to day that fire is strictly forbidden in the garden, so much so that his mouth becomes sour.

As for the reason, it was Frau, who did not try to tell me that it was a secret because it was about housework, but quite seriously, he appealed desperately there, so it was recognized as a rule to be followed among the Lotus Midas.

Without my knowledge, Lianya may be buried with explosives, but there is no one but Flau who knows the reality that the prediction is not off-target.

So I tried the test operation location as a cooking place, but I can't say that it is very suitable for using rice on a regular cooking table.

However, the cooking area at Lianya's house was equipped with just one good one.

That looks like just a stone cylinder at first glance.

At first Lianya didn't know what the hell it was and why it was provided in the cooking area, but after much research, she understood that it was a kettle kettle called Tandor where the original world said it was.

Ask Flau and he says here they usually use it to hang and bake meat and such.

Lotus thought that if I gave her a stick over this and hung her rice there, she would be able to cook it in good shape.

"Um..."

Before you cook rice, you must first examine the rice you cook.

When there is a mixture of broken rice or small grains of rice, unevenness occurs in the cooking.

It takes too long to find out everything, so there is a fine difference between the taste of cooked rice and not doing it.

"Lenya......?

Very important for cooking rice are hydrogenation and water quality.

Moisture accounts for roughly 60% to 70% of the rice cooked.

In other words, it is no exaggeration to say that water dictates the taste of cooked rice.

When washing rice, don't put too much effort into it.

Because it scratches the rice in the corner.

It feels like I'm going to take the dirt off the surface and I'm going to change the water a few times.

I do have a story about how I should put it in the rice and shake it up and down, but Lianya restrained herself to washing her hands.

After that, rice should be allowed to absorb moisture thoroughly.

If you cook it as it is, the core stays and it doesn't cook up deliciously.

"Um, Mr. Lenya?

"I'm going to leave you alone for a while. I'm probably doing something really important right now."

In Lianya's house, all water relations use water made by magic.

The principle was refreshing for Lianya, but just because it is made of witchcraft, this water has no impurities.

Though it seems close to a substitute for pure water where it was said in the original world, it could be said that this is the right water to cook rice.

It doesn't have flavors or scissors, so it doesn't disturb the rice flavor.

Once you have finished the task of letting rice inhale moisture, move on to the task of cooking that rice in rice.

"I, Lenya, came to talk to you..."

"Now, Lenya, 's, interrupt, then, listen, you can, talk, also, listen, you can't, you will,"

"Whew!? Elves are speaking people's language!?

"I should be surprised to have an elf before that."

"Huh? Oh, so to speak...... why an elf!? Why is the elf here?

Add rice well moisturized to the rice and add more water.

Generally, about 1.2 water is considered an appropriate amount for rice 1, but Lianya preferred somewhat stiff rice in one way or another, thus reducing the amount of water only slightly.

When the lid is closed, light it on fire.

Originally, coal becomes hard to remove on the outside of the rice if it is directly set on fire, so it is easier to finish after thinly coating it with mud, etc. before putting it on fire, but the fire is also caused by sorcery in Lianya's house, so there is no coal.

So adjust directly over the fire as is.

"There was a lot going on. Yes, it's tea."

"Oh, excuse me. Is it tea, you're drinking good"

"I'll bring you some green tea later. My master says it's absolutely green tea for a cooked Aros."

"Is that it? Soon I, a tasting officer...?

"Flow, should, should, should. Poor, no, and, Lenya,, distract, bad, maybe. Oh, I say, Cloire, I say. Greetings."

"This is polite. I say Learis. I'm a teacher at the Adventurer's School in Kuklika."

There was a song in the original world that said it was a little full at first, etc., but if it were to be a number, it would cook up in a total of 35 minutes: 5 minutes on low heat, 5 minutes on medium heat, 5 minutes on high heat, 10 minutes on melting fire, and finally 10 minutes on steam.

Around here, there are people who say it should be weighed precisely and who say it is their physical sense as they look at how things are going, but Lianya was either an idea on the latter side.

These things are things that change a lot depending on the surrounding environment and so on.

As a guide, the numbers should be adjusted ad hoc later while looking at the state, Lianya thinks.

"Liaris. What business are you having with the master today?

"Hey... Az, I need to talk to you about you"

"Az,?

"He's a friend of the master, a schoolteacher, a lover of Learis."

"Huh!? No, well, the... yes."

"Lenya, to, love counseling, is? Suitable, I don't think, is it?

"I'm sayin 'something plain awful, but I agree with Frau."

Once it's down from the fire, it goes into steaming work.

There are people who teach you to turn the rice upside down and steam it, but in fact when you turn it upside down, there is no escape for water vapor, so it is not advisable to turn back because the watery rice cooks up.

It's the right way to steam by the fire.

It is the knowledge in Lianya's head to say that the task of turning the rice back was originally to drop coal or other leaves that crept to the bottom while the rice was hot, and that at some point it became stuck with steaming work.

In other words, it is an unnecessary task for Lianya, who uses a magical fire without coal, and it can be said that it is just a wasted task where the taste of cooked rice simply drops.

"But by the way, the guy who's afraid of failure cooks cancer on high heat from the start, and if he blows zero, he turns it on low heat and waits for about fifteen minutes, and it's pretty well made and cooked."

"Who are you explaining to, Master?

"Well, who would it be?

When the steaming is finished, open the lid and mix together to cause plump rice.

This is the dimension that says extra moisture will fly and delicious rice will cook.

"This time it's experimental, so I can't fit it together. Why don't you try eating it like this to some extent?"

Let the four small vessels prepared by Frau be cooked rice.

I don't have any chopsticks, so I instruct him to eat them dull with a spoon, and then Lianya takes a bite of it herself.

Feelings I've tried are bad on the palate, slightly weak on the sweetness and thin on the aroma.

Still enough, the mouth of Lianya was inadvertently loose due to the quality and prosperity of what I called rice rice.

"There's more."

"It's a cooking method I've never seen, but it's delicious, this"

"Soft, with no core, is good, right? You're good, Lenya."

Listening to the thoughts of the three of us, once we wet our hands with water, and then take the rice that is still there, we hold it slightly hot as we put up with it.

Originally, the rice balls were right to hold fluffy with the air in them, but Lianya put only a little effort into gripping the firm rice balls.

Here, lay an iron net over the tandoori, put on the rice balls you just gripped and cook carefully while applying the soy sauce you got from the elves with brush.

When the delicious smell of soy sauce begins to enter the cooking area, the gaze of the three people on the boulder also gathers at Lianya's disposal.

"Mr. Lenya, as a tasting officer, this is a sincerely thick story, do you have that number of people?

"Don't worry, I'll naturally grip four. This time it's a prototype, but if it's popular, I'll make a lot next time. Even so, cooking with rice has its limits, so maybe we need to prepare a proper kettle. I'll be in touch when I make it, so come and eat with Az."

"Uh... yes"

A shadow fell on Learis' face, though only slightly.

Lotus Yaya asks, applying soy sauce over the rice balls and turning back not to burn too much.

"You said it was for me, right? Az, I heard you get tangled up, but what are you talking about?

"Yes.... I also thought it would be rude to bring in stories like this..."

He was a liaris that seemed difficult to talk to, but Lianya waved the hands of those who were empty.

"Never mind. Even if it doesn't talk at all, just listen first."

Just as Az wanted his relationship with Lianya to be a good one, Lianya herself wanted her relationship with Az to remain good.

The thought of Az came to me to talk to him.

Whatever stupid story, I think I need to lend my ear to Lianya.

"Did Renya know your full name, Az?

What was that? and get lost for a moment.

I remember hearing about it once a long time ago. It was Lianya, but I can't remember right away.

For a while, Lianya, who had been thinking while listening to the sound of soy sauce and rice cooking, manages this way. From the depths of her memory, she mouths the name she has pulled out.

"Was it Az-Hound? You had a last name, didn't you?

"Yes, it's called the Hound, but this is the name of the Earl's house in the Principality of Triden."

The Principality of Triden is the Principality, but therefore the King does not exist.

Instead the presence that says Grand Duke governs the country, but beneath this the rank of nobility follows: Duke, Marquis, Count, Viscount, Baron, Knight, Associate Knight as lower nobility.

In other words, the Principality of Triden has what it calls the Count Hound family, and Az comes from there, to say.

It's a faster rank to count from above, so as an identity, I'd say it's a high ranking household.

"Was he a good toko boy?"

"For once, he said he was the second son. You don't have to inherit the house. Yes, I do."

That's a subtle toko, Lianya thinks.

If he is the eldest son, he will be obliged to inherit the house as the firstborn son, but the second son will turn to his oldest son's assistant or be charged with marrying the daughters of other houses to deepen the connection.

It was supposed to be a rare case in position to say, like AZ, that you can live a casual life as an adventurer.

"Half of them are running away from home."

From the look on Lianya's face, Liaris explains additionally what she read.

"Was it on your face? So, what kind of story does that link to?

"Actually, lately. Az, you officially signed me up to socialize..."

Lotus Yashi thinks that if he hears what face he confessed to, it would have been a sight to see, he would turn bright red and be angry.

If I had known beforehand, I would have felt a little sorry for going for a peek.

"Congratulations. Isn't that a good story?

To Lianya's blessing words, the look on Liaris's face doesn't clear.

"Hi... but I have no last name, I'm just a rear squirrel... and the house is out of civilian"

"Hmm?"

"Az, you're telling me you don't care. He said he doesn't care what they say now because it's the same house that came out of the house. But when it comes to me socializing with you, Az, there are a lot of cross spears in there from your parents."

"Is that it? You want me to sneak out of Az's home where Az and you are in the way of dating? It's not hard, but it's going to be tough. Is it quick to make it look like some kind of accident and gather it in one place and do something...?

"Oh, Mr. Lenya, why are you thinking in the direction of crushing the Count House...?

You're not? and if Lianya tilted her neck, she shook left and right with momentum like a hasty rear squirrel chopping her neck a thousand times and flying.

"So what kind of story are you talking to me? I'm not proud of you, but other than exercising your powers, you can't really count on me."

Turn the rice balls back and apply the soy sauce again.

The taste of soy sauce becomes too strong when applied too much, but Lianya preferred to apply it well there.

If it's compatible with soy sauce, I think you should try the miso roasted rice balls next.

"Az, no matter what your parents say to you, I want you to have a proven track record."

"If you continue to be a school teacher, you can't do that, can you?

"I don't know how many years it's going to take... and I feel bad about keeping my reply on hold for a long time, AZ,"

Oh, I haven't replied, and Lianya takes AZ's mood into account, and I feel a little sorry for him.

I would have confessed quite courageously, but I was put off responding until I got a decent response, and AZ wouldn't feel alive.

Whether it is true or not, even if you don't get a clear response, problems can arise at a level that interferes with your daily life.

Although it was not difficult to predict that the atmosphere and the flow of the conversation would say yes without even my parents' cross spears.

"So I asked Lenya to talk to you."

I see. It was certainly a story that I would have immediately said no to if I had been normally consulted.

However, the opponent is AZ and his thinker.

It's enough to say that if an early story makes some bigger request in the guild and gives Rialis a track record and fame, Az's parents will be able to ignore it, whether they put in a cross spear or not.

"Is Rearis' Adventurer Registration Still Valid?

"Yes, even if you are a school teacher, the registration itself remains valid"

Now I wonder what's going on, and Lianya takes the roasted soy sauce rice balls off the net and throws one at the rear squirrel.

Unexpectedly, it feels like I said, and Rialis receives it properly.

"Ah...... what, hot!? Hot!? It's hot, Mr. Lenya!?

"Put it on a plate, eat it cold"

"Lenya,. Good, smelly,. Me too, please."

"Master, even to Frau!

Cloire and Frau stick out their plates with the momentum to say if they are hungry children or you guys.

While I put the freshly baked rice balls on that plate, I first wondered if I would talk to Lotus Yaya when Shion and the others returned.
