Yuta seemed to have given the perfect answer to Gina's request: curry, but it turned out that he did not even know what kind of spices are necessary for curry. Yuta managed to squeeze out some knowledge about spices before he made a big show of it to his apprentice, but will he be able to successfully complete the curry?　Stay tuned!

"Now then, let me explain about curry."

Now that Gina and Daniela's sermon to Pete is over, it's time to start making curry.

"Master. It's an invincible dish, isn't it!"

Gina emphasizes her invincibility with a sparkling smile. It is a little sad that she has the same expression as Marco did when he saw the awesome sword. Gina is a bit childish sometimes.

Well, her honesty has saved my life many times, so I don't mind it, but Daniela's eyes are on the unfortunate girl, so I wish she'd control it a little.

However, I can't drop the word "invincible" now, so I'll have to do my best to keep the conversation on track and land somewhere safe.

And Pete. Don't look at me like I'm stinking while mumbling about being invincible in cooking.

"Yes, curry is an invincible dish. It is the most powerful dish that can change in a million different ways depending on how it is made, and can turn many dishes into curry. Learn it with all your heart."

I am not lying because curry powder goes well with most ingredients, and unless the ingredients are very strange, it tastes good when cooked as a curry.

Also, just in terms of words, could you downgrade from invincible to the strongest?　Invincible and the most powerful are the same, isn't invincible stronger?

Gina looked at me expectantly, Daniela looked amused, and Pete nodded his head in a stinky way, so I guess they agreed with me for now.

"Curry is simply a dish made by mixing various spices and simmering them with meat and vegetables.

"Come on, there is no way a poor diner like ours can use a variety of spices. The food served in a restaurant is not enough to be delicious. Price and time are also important. That's why amateurs are so ......"

"We've thought of a way around that, so don't worry."

I'm just going to throw it all on Betty's plate.

I interrupt Pete's complaining to continue explaining the curry.

Coriander, cinnamon, hawk's claw, cardamom, turmeric, paprika, saffron, cumin.

He shows the three of them the spices he managed to remember and obtain, and teaches them how to prepare the spices, measuring and recording the amounts with a spoon.

Master. Is there a right way to mix the spices?"

Gina pokes at the hardest part. I'm sure there must be a correct recipe if you are in the curry business, but I've only made curry with a simple curry roux, so I don't know what the right answer is.

As I said before, curry is a dish that varies from one place to another. So the only way to find the right formula for this diner is to make it here in this diner. Let's do our best."

"I see. It's a lot harder than I thought. ......"

Yes. It's harder than I thought. I regret so much that I started this on a whim.

"Well, that's why I'm going to start by making a prototype. First of all, we need to do the preparation.

If we make a large amount of soup in a large pot before mixing with curry powder, and then mix it with curry powder in a small pot, we will be able to make many kinds of prototypes.

If you don't know the exact quantity, just go by the numbers. It is a truism that if you can keep on hitting until you hit it, you will reach the right answer.

I don't know if it will fool you or not, but let's stick to the soup in the preliminary stage.

A large amount of onions sauteed well is a basic ...... grated apple and honey is a basic ...... When should I add them?

**

"Can I serve this as a dish if the color is ......?　I'm sorry to tell you this, but it looks like a zit."

Seeing the first curry made in a small pot, Mr. Pete throws a direct challenge.

Perhaps the amount of flour added was too much, or perhaps the curry's sludge was stronger than normal curry, which made it look even worse, so I can't deny what Mr. Pete is trying to say.

"But you, it smells so good, doesn't it?　What can I say?　A strange smell that whets your appetite?"

Daniela also seems to like the smell, although she disapproves of the appearance. I agree that it smells good for the first prototype. The only thing it smells like is curry.

"Master. I think we're done here, right?"

"Yeah. It was a little too much flour, but it was a good prototype.

"Okay, let's taste it. It doesn't look good, but there's nothing in it that's inedible, so it should be fine.

"Gina. You're not wrong, but you should be a little more hesitant in these situations. It's a necessary part of being a woman to appear pretty.

"Gina doesn't need any of that!"

Yes, Gina's words and actions were manly, but that doesn't mean that you should educate her on women's tricks at a time like this. Mr. Pete is going to have a rough time.

"That's not the point now. Let's just have a taste. Master, you don't mind if I eat it, do you?"

"Uh-huh."

Gina pushes Daniela and Pete out of the way and puts her spoon into the curry.

I hoped she would choose the right time and place, but Gina, who didn't care about Daniela's words at all, was also a problem.

"Delicious!　Master, this is a little spicy, but it's delicious!"

Gina, who had tasted the curry without paying attention to our feelings, reported with great joy.

We succeeded from the very first try?　Am I a genius?

Daniela and Pete also tasted it and said it was delicious.

Maybe it really was a success from the very first try. Surprised at their own talent, they taste the first prototype.

...... something is different. It's not cooked that well, and the spices are freshly processed, so the aroma is intense, but the taste is bland or bland or bland. ......It's subtle. .......

It's not really a curry at all, but the reason Gina and the others seem to appreciate it so much is because they've never tasted it before. The aroma alone is enough to make them appreciate the taste.

But that's not good enough.

"Gentlemen! This is not a curry. This is not the potential of curry. It can be ten or twenty times better. Let's keep on experimenting.

Gina and her son were surprised at my words. The wide-eyed look in their eyes told me that they really enjoyed the food. That's the magic of the curry aroma.

"Well, ...... Mr. Yuta. Can it get any better than this?"

"Yes, this is not a curry. Compared to a real curry, it's a piece of crap. You mustn't be satisfied with this.

Daniela asks with fear, to which I confidently reply.

It seems to be somewhat possible, so let's continue with the prototype. If this is the first try, I'm sure we can make an even better curry!

**

"I hate it. I'm sleepy. I'm full. I want to go home ......"

I regret now that I was so bold to explain the high potential of curry. My life is full of regrets.

"Master. Don't give up."

"No, because you know what? We made a lot of good ones, didn't we?　Isn't that enough?"

I made a lot of prototypes.

Among them, this one is the tastiest.　The curry that resulted in the best result was targeted, and the trial continued with subtle changes in the balance of the spices.

As a result, the freshness of the spices combined with the curry's freshness made it a little too close to Japanese home curries.　I think we have reached a point where the food tastes as good as it can be.

However, I could not complete a curry with outstanding taste. However, I think that if the quality of the curry is a little less than that of my home curry in Japan, it is a good enough result for a one-day prototype in another world.

"But we need to decide which ones we're going to serve at the restaurant."

Gina is right.

Several tasty curries were made, and troublesome to say the least, Gina and the other three were divided in their opinions.

The three of them, who were fascinated by the appeal of the curry that had been perfected, did not compromise on their opinions.

So, they are inspired to make an even better curry and continue to make more prototypes. Even though they haven't slept.

"No, you know what?　I think it's all right and fundamental. Curry is a very deep dish. That's why it can't be done in a day. You have to continue your research and make the best curry you can. There is still a lot of room for growth. ......"

So let's go home. I've got a pretty good curry that I like, so we'll eat it with rice when the time comes. I think I'll pass on the curry for now.

Hmm?　Isn't it noisy outside?　Oh, it's getting light already. It's time to end this.

"It's noisy indeed."

Mr. Pete heads over to see what's going on at my words.

Ah, I've pulled a perfect all-nighter. I want to go home and go to bed, but I wonder if I can sleep, since I'm sure Bell and the others will be awake when I get home.

If it's too tight, I'll let Bell and the kids go play and take a nap.

"Whoa!"

Sleepy and in a daze, you hear Mr. Pete's startled voice. Then I hear the voices of people I don't know. What's that smell?

I see, the violent smell of curry has leaked outside. The diffusion rate of the curry smell is quite high, so it's no wonder people are gathering here.

"Oh, maybe we should let the people gathered outside try some and then decide which ones to serve in the restaurant. The most important thing is what the customers like!"

I was so sleepy I forgot my honorifics. I have no problem with Gina, but I feel too familiar with Daniela. But it's kind of annoying .......

"No, master. No, master. That's not good. If we let people in the cafeteria now, they'll see the ingredients and curry is better than I thought. Master said that he will talk to the commercial guild and the cooking guild after it becomes popular, but I think it will be less of a problem if we talk to the guilds first.

"Well, but it's not finished yet, is it?　The spices and the amount of spices and other ingredients can make it even better, so isn't it too early to talk to the guild?"

On a scale of 1 to 65, I'd say the curry is about 65 right now.　If we work hard, I think we can reach 80 points in a short time.

"Master. You can hear the old man getting tangled up outside, can't you?　This is just the smell, and if we don't get them through to the guild first, we're going to have a real problem."

Listening to the voices outside, I can indeed hear Mr. Pete being crammed by a large group of people.

Mr. Pete says he's working on a new menu item, but it doesn't seem to be helping the voices demanding to be fed.

It's safer to talk to the guild while I'm around to handle any riot that might break out.

If I go out now, I might get into trouble, and when the guild opens, I'll call Betty and throw her out. I'll trust that the chubby, plump beauty will take care of the rest.
