Chapter 1501 - Seeking More Possibilities of Baby Castellas ⑥

Chapter 1501 - Seeking More Possibilities of Baby Castellas ⑥

After Lillywood-san, Magnawell-san and Megiddo-san, our next stop would naturally be Isis-san’s place.

Despite our sudden visit, the kind Isis-san welcomed us with open arms, and we talked about Kuro’s baby castellas over tea.

[……I see…… Baby castellas are delicious…… I can understand…… your desire to make it even better.]

[Right! Yes, baby castellas have endless possibilities!]

[……Unnn…… However…… I’m not that well-informed….. A method Kuromueina hasn’t tried yet…… Hmmm…… Everyone, what do you think?]

With a troubled look on her face at Kuro’s question, Isis-san asked her subordinates. Iris-san is good at cooking, so we might get some pretty good opinions from her.

As I was thinking about this, I was patting Eul, who is on my lap and rubbing her body against me, acting all spoiled.

[Baby castellas huh, flavor-related factors seemed to be often tried and tasted…… How about changing the texture? Such results would certainly differ depending on the ingredients, but the texture changes can also depend on how it’s baked. Even if two different dishes have the same flavor, having different textures would bring about a different eating experience for the consumer.]

[I see, it’s true that until now, I’ve had Ein cook them to the perfect degree of doneness, but it is possible to bake the baby castellas slightly crispy.]

Iris-san was the first to respond, and as to be expected of someone with her skills, it was a simple, but versatile piece of advice. Certainly, even if the flavor of your creation was the same as usual, eating something with a different texture would feel different, and since Kuro has received rice flour from Alice, it seems going through this would give her a wide variety of uses.

[……I didn’t eat much until I became Isis-sama’s subordinate, but us Witches have our own blend of spices. It’s not that it’s not on the market, but they were stuff that were actively sold, so it’s almost never on the market. I remember that its taste was relatively suitable for baby castellas.]

[Heehhh…… Ingredients unique to each species do exist after all. I have acquaintances among the Witches, so I’ll ask them next time. Thanks.]

Polaris-san’s answer was recommending something like a secret spice of the Witches, and hearing that made Kuro interested. There are many species in the Demon Realm, and it seems that there are many with their own unique food cultures.

And then, Sirius-san’s turn came next, and with her arms folded and twisting her head in thought, Sirius-san spoke, seemingly lacking in confidence.

[……H- How about…… using sap?]

[Isn’t that just something you Insectoids like? This is why muscleheads can’t be properly asked questions……]

[……Do you even have a good opinion to give out?]

[It’s a rare ingredient, but Bloody Berries are indispensable. I can prepare a lot of them though.]

[Aren’t those poisonous fruits used to nourish corpses!? Only corpse b*tches like you would happily eat something like that!]

[……Ahh?]

[……Huh?]

[Consider the time and place, you idiots. Don’t fight here.]

After both of them expressed their unique opinions, Sirius-san and Rasal-san grabbed each other’s collars and started bickering with each other. From what I’ve heard, they’re the kind of people who get along better the more they fight.

Well, as they had been thrown outside of the room by an astounded Iris-san, leaving those two aside…… The last one is Spica-san.

[Hmm~~ Can Blue Crystal Flowers be eaten~~? I can adjust it so that their blooms are edible~~]

[Ah, we did think of that on the way here. If Spica-chan doesn’t mind, I would like it if you could share some with us.]

[Yes~~ Well then, I’ll prepare some which you can bring back home~~]

Spica-san’s answer was that thing which we were thinking about upon hearing from Camellia-san, edible Blue Crystal Flower petals.

Since only Spica-san is the only Blue Crystal Flower Spirit in the world, it’s an ingredient that only Spica-san can make, and Kuro herself seemed very interested in it.

[Well~~ Everyone at Isis-san’s place sure is unique and interesting.]

[……Unnn…… They’re girls I’m proud of……]

[I see~~ I’m glad you’re having fun, Isis. By the way, what’s your personal opinion like, Isis?]

[……Hmmm…… How about…… chilling it?]

[Come to think of it, Alice made those ice cream-filled baby castellas during the Six Kings Festival, so I guess it’s possible to steer them toward frozen desserts?]

[That would certainly be interesting. Baby castellas exclusively eaten when it’s hot…… Great! I can feel it! Baby castellas’ possibilities!!!]

I kinda hate the fact that I’m ending up talking strangely too, but there’s no doubt that if baby castellas can be made tasty even when they’re cold, they would be delicious.

[……W- Well, in any case, thank you, Isis-san.]

[……Unnn…… If I’m able to help Kaito and Kuromueina…… I’m also happy.]

Saying that, Isis-san gave me an angelic smile.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [In terms of camp units, it seems like Death King camp has given the most opinions.]
