Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking - Adventurers Are Obsessed With My Cooking chapter 76

Episode 76. The wine smells like roses

The sweet and sour pork was very popular.

No, it would be more accurate to say that it was the most popular dish I have ever made.

There was no choice but to do that because it was the first fried dish, and it was a super rare dish that used high oak meat from the start.

Even simple frying has a great taste, but with the addition of taste correction by the system, how can it be tasteless?

The guys who tasted it all made a fuss, so the lunch break took much longer than expected.

“I-Can I really make something like this?”

Nadia was downcast.

Thinking that you can’t satisfy a hairy boy without this level of taste, he seemed to be terrified.

Since mindset is important, he told me that if you learn hard under me, the day will come when you can have a similar taste someday.

‘But, is that really possible?’

I’ve never used an assistant, and I’ve never taught a student, so I’m not sure.

In the future, we will find out one by one.

After finishing the meal, he moved busily.

The children took a break from hunting after a long time, and I started my first cooking class with the guys I appointed as assistants standing in front of me.

At the same time, I had to make more than 100 tacos to send to Angelic Slime.

At first, I was thinking of making it all together, but maybe it was more difficult for beginners than I thought, and it only got in the way.

So, I taught them how to make the easiest tortilla dough.

Lemon easily followed this, so by the time the sun went down, everyone had succeeded in making their own tortillas.

Of course, there was no buff effect like I made.

The taste was also very bad.

‘Because I’m still an apprentice…’

In order to be able to use these guys properly, you will need to get at least an apprenticeship ticket, but I have no idea when that will be.

Still, since all the dishes to be sent to Angelic Slime have been completed, the assistant training will proceed slowly.

‘The next problem is…’

There is a time limit on eating the dishes I made.

Because of this, I have to hurry up and send it, but in the end, I also have to do it myself.

Over 100 servings of High Oak Bulgogi Tacos.

If you sell at the market price, you can get more than 5 million gold.

Who the hell are you entrusting this to?

You have to deliver it yourself.

“Then, let’s go to Pellon early tomorrow morning for cooking, and let’s go back to the inn. We’ll have to make plans soon. It’s time to graduate from the oak field.”

Then, someone put a hand on my shoulder from behind.

It was a man’s hand.

“What… Is it?”

It was the hairy hand.

“I… I have something to tell you. How about a drink later?”

“If it’s a drink, do you mean alcohol? Is it something that must be said while drinking?”

“Yes… Alcohol is good, and if the chef doesn’t like alcohol, tea…”

“Ah, no. That’s right. Having a drink isn’t difficult. Hmm… Ah! I’ll take this opportunity to make one. Please come to our dorm later. We’ll treat you to a good drink.”

“Yes?”

“Why? Do you have to drink at a bar? The drinks here aren’t very popular, are they?”

“No, it’s not like that…”

I was very suspicious of the hairy boy’s behavior.

But I didn’t suspect that they were plotting a huge conspiracy.

It was just a little… Uncomfortable.

‘Are you trying to get dating counseling?’

Well, you’ll understand if we talk later.

“Sleep. Please bring this to my brother.”

“No…”

“Take it. I made it generously on purpose.”

What I handed to him was the hot sweet and sour pork I made today.

Since I’ve been away for the past week, I’ve probably only brought tacos that are about to expire at most to my brother who can’t walk.

I don’t know if my younger brother will like it, but if I was a guy who hated sweet and sour pork in the first place, I would have rejected it, so I didn’t worry.

“Thank you… Thank you very much. Then, I’ll see you later tonight.”

The appearance of the hairy boy who expressed his gratitude for the extension seemed powerless for some reason.

I don’t think it’s because of Nadia, is it because of her sister?

I was staring at the back of the hairy boy for a long time.

* * *

“Are you here?”

“Yes… Excuse me for being late.”

It was only 9:30 in the evening.

However, in this place where nightlife is not developed, this could be said to be very late.

If it’s not a pub that deals with summoners, it’s time to close.

Hairy Bo appeared in plain clothes, not combat clothes.

It wasn’t Cassie’s outfit, it was the normal outfit worn by the locals here.

If it wasn’t for the Asian face, even the locals would have believed it.

Lynn sent Mumu and Melissa to her room.

She

I don’t know if she’s asleep, but she has grown-ups to talk to, she said, so she won’t come out of the blue and disturb her.

I set up a large table in the room I was staying in and brought out the chairs in advance.

I tried to create a drinking atmosphere, but it didn’t turn out the way I wanted.

“Um… Are you drinking lemon seeds too?”

“Yes. He has a heavier mouth than I do, so there’s nothing to worry about. He also likes alcohol, so I asked him to have a drink with me. I… But what should I call him?”

Until now, I was called Archer.

The subject of leaving the children for a week is really awkward.

“Ah, my name is Bae Woong-cheon. The chef…”

“My name is Jeon Tae-min. Excuse me, but I’m older… I’m Korean, so it’s okay if I ask you about this?”

“Twenty-nine.”

“Ah, you’re a big brother. I’m twenty-seven. Lemon…”

“Ah, I know how old Lemon is. I asked him a while ago…”

I turned his head to Lemon.

The guy nodded, saying yes.

‘……’

I guess so.

Since you’ve been with me for a week without me, you might have asked about my name and age.

But what?

A lemon?

It felt like my blood pressure suddenly jumped up in my back bone.

When are you calling me friendly?

Have you two already talked?

I didn’t notice anything like that during the day…

Ah… Come on, Jeon Tae-min.

You haven’t even taken a sip yet, so what are you doing?

“hahahaha… Feel free to say it. Can I call you hyung-nim?”

“Ah, yes… You guys should be comfortable talking too.”

It seems like they decided to let go of their words, but the atmosphere is still brutally awkward.

‘I have to drink it quickly. This is hard for my mind to bear.’

“Ah, look at my spirit. We decided to drink, right? We all ate dinner together earlier, so I prepared a simple snack.”

I took out freshly fried nachos and pre-cut fruit and put them on the table.

In addition, the table setting was finished by taking out the pre-baked jeon to eat when hungry.

“How about alcohol?”

Lemon asks.

I grin,

“Whoops, will you be surprised?”

I took out the alcohol I had prepared in advance from my inventory.

Bang! Bang!

Two small wine jars were placed on the table.

“Is this alcohol?”

“Yes. The liquor I made.”

“Are you making alcohol too?”

From noble mtl dot com

I said, pretending to be a bit arrogant.

“I can’t say I made it myself, should I say a cocktail?”

“Cocktails?”

“Yeah. Why is there a pot from the disaster hunt in Blue Wolf Hill?”

“Oh, yes.”

“There was alcohol in it, right? I made it using that.”

At that time, the relic urn was filled with a strong drink named ‘Eorgis’s Dawn’.

In order to use the preservation magic in the jar, you have to empty the contents, but you can’t throw away the precious liquor, so I thought about how to use it.

I wondered what it would be like to make a cocktail.

Fortunately, Dawn of Eorgis was only a strong alcoholic drink, not an alcoholic drink with a unique scent or taste added.

Perhaps it was a distilled liquor, but it was like a very clear and clean high-alcoholic rice wine.

Boil some fresh fruit juices to make fruit syrup, get some fragrant herbs, and combine the finished syrup, water, and spirits in dozens of ratios to create this cocktail in a jar.

It’s my personal taste, so it’s still unknown if it’ll suit two people, but based on my experience in cooking, I’m sure you’ll like it.

“One is a pineapple-scented liquor, and one is um… It’s kind of hard to explain, but it’s an accidental drink created by mixing three fruit syrups. It smells a bit like roses.”

“A rose?”

“Uh. But it’s not burdensome, and it’s refreshing when you drink it, but the scent that lingers in your mouth at the end is just like that. Ah, you have to try this for yourself to know.”

I took out my glass and slowly poured the wine on the rose-scented side.

Unlike the fragrance, the color is only clean and transparent.

It’s a pity that there is no ice, but you can still enjoy it.

“Eorgis Rose?”

“Ah, did you do an appraisal? I took the name of the liquor. It’s harder than I thought to name a drink… Is it weird?”

“No, not bad.”

“Ah, get your brother too.”

“Ah… Yes.”

Our glasses were filled, and under the soft lighting that illuminated the dimly lit room, we drank our first glasses.

I didn’t say a toast.

Because our situation is not so full of hope.

It’s just a place for three people in similar situations to gather and talk quietly.

“Hmm… What is this? Is it alcohol?”

“Why? It’s diluted, but the alcohol content must be quite high.”

“Really? But why is it so smooth…”

“Of course. Who made it?”

Starting with the lemon, the hairy older brother also gives compliments.

“Kyaa… It doesn’t sound like a drink that goes well with me… But it’s delicious. This.”

“Really. The scent of roses at the end… Um…”

I just replied with a smile.

I closed my eyes and looked at Lemon’s face as he slowly enjoyed the scent.

‘Fortunately, they seem to like it.’

Because it tasted just right for me to drink that women would like.

But it wasn’t a taste that men would dislike.

It’s not too sweet, and it’s not too fragrant.

Perhaps it is a taste with little likes or dislikes.

“This… I like it.”

“I’m glad.”

“Kuh… I can’t help but be able to make alcohol like this.”

Unlike usual, when we praised the food, our drinking party, which started by praising the taste of alcohol, gradually matured.

And finally, I was able to hear what the hairy brother wanted to say to me.
