"Sosuke is definitely your role model, and I believe you will learn a lot by his side."
"Although the dishes you made when you were very young always disgusted me, but… but I still hope that one day you can create a dish that even my God Tongue will find satisfying!"
"Mom!"
"I… I will definitely do it."
Erina was stunned. She knew that conquering her mother with cooking would be a very, very difficult path.
She would have to stand at the very pinnacle of the entire culinary world to perhaps even touch it, but in the end, she clenched her fists and said to Nakiri Mana with determined eyes.
"Good, then I'll wait."
Mana showed a trace of a relieved smile.
Immediately after, she turned to look at Sosuke, who was on the side, and respectfully said, "Sosuke, I'm entrusting Erina to you for now."
"No problem, you can rest assured, I will definitely…"
"Mom, Sosuke is very good to me. I'm really happy living here, even happier than at Totsuki!"
Unexpectedly, Sosuke's words were cut off by Erina before he could finish.
Witnessing this scene, Nakiri Mana could only sigh softly. They say a daughter is like spilled water; she hasn't even married yet, why is she already siding with an outsider?
However, after her careful observation tonight, she knew that Erina's feelings for him indeed contained a certain affection.
If this situation continued to develop, it was possible that these two could truly end up together.
Finally, after a few more pleasantries, Nakiri Mana left the Izakaya, and with her departure, the system's sign-in reward finally arrived!
…
"Ding-dong!"
"Host has successfully signed in once."
"Ding-dong!"
"Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the recipe for Rice-Free Fried Rice, the special recipe for Flame Dumplings, the special cooking technique Luo Han Crystal Cut, and 1 opportunity to upgrade and renovate the Izakaya."
"What's going on? Is tonight's sign-in reward really this exaggerated?"
Sosuke was instantly dumbfounded!
It was one thing for recipes and special recipes to appear, but even a cooking technique, and a special one at that, the Luo Han Crystal Cut, appeared, and then he also received 1 opportunity for an upgrade renovation.
Oh my goodness.
I knew it, why did I pull Navia with only 10 pulls on the soft pity when playing the original game today?
It turns out this day is really going to be lucky!
People who are trying to lose weight know that the white rice they usually eat is highly processed, considered "refined carbohydrates," with a high glycemic index, making it very easy to gain weight.
In contrast, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains are all "complex carbohydrates," with a low glycemic index, rich in micronutrients, and provide a strong sense of fullness.
Therefore, in an era that emphasizes physical health and balanced nutrition, dishes like Rice-Free Fried Rice are gradually gaining popularity among people.
So, some people might be very confused: if there's no rice, how do you make fried rice?
The answer is simple.
It's simply replacing the main ingredient of fried rice, rice, with cauliflower, which is filling, high in fiber, and rich in micronutrients.
Therefore, what is called Rice-Free Fried Rice should actually be "Cauliflower" Fried Rice.
…
In Japan's recipes,
there is a set meal called "Gyoza Teishoku," which consists of rice, pan-fried dumplings, and Ramen.
Well, obviously, this is a "staple + staple + staple" set meal, giving the feeling of eating steamed buns with rice.
Dumplings, as a delicacy with a long history, can naturally be considered a staple food in Tianchao, but for the Japanese, who are accustomed to rice as their staple, it is unacceptable.
Therefore, from the day dumplings arrived in Japan, they have always maintained the status of a "side dish."
And Flame Dumplings are a dumpling dish created by the Dumpling Brothers at the annual "Guangzhou Dumpling Convention."
Because the shape of this dumpling greatly resembles a flame, and its preparation also involves using a torch to spray alcohol, igniting a roaring fire to quickly remove excess moisture from the dumplings, it was named Flame Dumplings.
Placed in an Izakaya, this dish cooked with flames is quite spectacular.
As for
the final cooking technique, Luo Han Crystal Cut.
This is a dark cooking secret technique used by Seven-Bladed Raine.
By using this cooking technique, the sliced sashimi can become even smoother, even like a mirror, reflecting a person's face.
In other words, combined with the previously obtained [Never-Breaking Beichen Tianlang Blade], Sosuke can now finally create the most perfect Live Ice Sea Bream Mountain.
"Very good, very good."
"This way, I can create the dish Live Ice Sea Bream Mountain anytime, anywhere."
"Moreover, the Rice-Free Fried Rice recipe is also very consistent with the Izakaya's business philosophy. I never expected tonight's sign-in rewards to be so abundant."
At this moment, Sosuke, having received these rewards, could finally no longer conceal his inner joy, chuckling to himself.
"Ding-dong!"
"Host now has 1 opportunity to upgrade and renovate the Izakaya. Would you like to use it now?"
"Use it directly."
Sosuke came back to his senses and replied without hesitation.
"Ding-dong!"
"According to the Host's wishes, the Izakaya is now undergoing an upgrade. This upgrade will also take 24 hours, during which the Izakaya will not be open to the public. Please suspend operations for 1 day, Host!"
"Another day of closure?"
"That's fine; it's a good opportunity for Kuguchi Sonoka and Nakiri Erina to rest."
Sosuke heard this and didn't mind, as this should be the Izakaya's second upgrade.
He vaguely remembered that during the first upgrade, the entire Izakaya directly expanded its operating area by 50 square meters, and also added 1 basement storage, a lounge area, and a smoking area.
Furthermore, all areas on the first floor, including the kitchen counter, island counter, dining area, floor tiles, dining tables, outdoor potted plants, etc., were redecorated.
And now, he always had a premonition in his heart.
This upgrade and renovation would definitely be more upscale than the last, and would also add several brand new functional areas.
"Sigh, it seems I'll have to hire new employees again."
"That Kakizaki Taki, whose restaurant just went bankrupt due to the Midnight Chefs incident, is now at a dead end…"
Sosuke murmured. (End of chapter)
