Friendly Reincarnator Chapter 92: Fish Cuisine in a Port Town

 I received a total of 160 gold coins, 60 gold coins for defeating the enemy, and 100 gold coins for the purchase of 5 of them.

 

 To the receptionist at the guild, I asked if there are there any mountains or volcanoes in this country that people can’t get to. I asked her if there were any lands where the wind was always blowing, or if there were any very clear and beautiful springs, but she just shook her head.

 

 

 Come to think of it, I consumed quite a bit of bread on Vesan Island, so I’d like to rent the kitchen of an inn or bakery to increase our supply.

 

 If I run out, I can just eat something else, but I feel anxious when I have less and I want to stock up. I am the type of person who always feels secure when I have a full tank of fuel on my cell phone or car.

 

 

 When I asked for the use of the kitchen at a bakery in town, I was promptly turned down, and the same was true at the inn, and I hesitated to ask because the boiled fish at the guild’s restaurant was too strong.

 

 I searched for a restaurant in town and found a small one with about four tables, so I negotiated with the owner, who agreed to let me have it after lunch with only one gold coin until they started preparing the evening meal.

 

 

 I decided to eat lunch at this diner even though it was a little early.

 

 I ordered a dish of boiled fish, but I was still not happy with it because it was just boiled in salted water.

 

 

 I thought I would spend the busy lunch hour outside, but only five customers came during the supposedly busy time of the day, and the only orders I received were a set of boiled fish and a dish of stir-fried orc meat and vegetables (too salty).

 

 I finished my set of boiled fish, ordered a glass of fruit juice water, and waited to see what was going on in the restaurant.

 

 When the five customers left the restaurant, the place became quiet.

 

 The owner of the restaurant came to talk to me, saying,

 

 

“We’re closing for today, so you can use the kitchen freely.” (Owner)

 

“Thank you. I will bake a lot of bread developed in the kingdom of Sunsberg, so please try some later.” (Louis)

 

 

 I answered with a smile, but the owner still had a gloomy expression on his face.

 

 

“Ah, I’m looking forward to it…” (Owner)

 

 

 Please don’t say those hopeful words in such a depressed voice.

 

 

 Anyway, the owner seemed to have put on the closed sign as I entered the kitchen. It seems that no customers come to the restaurant even though the sign is up, and even if they did, I can’t cook in the kitchen, so closing the restaurant was the right thing to do.

 

 

 I fire up the oven, knead the flour, combine it with the yeast, accelerate the cooking process with [Maturation], shape the Koppe bread, and start baking.

 

 While baking, I made the next dough and made a large amount of ready-to-bake dough in a streamlined manner.

 

 

 I was bored when I had a lot of dough to bake, I didn’t have a lot of dough on hand after making my ready-to-bake dough.

 

I took out a few fish and shellfish and cook.

 

 The dish to make is Acqua Pazza. [T/N: Poached white fish with tomatoes and olive oil.]

 

 

 This was the only dish I could make easily with the ingredients I had on hand.

 

 Personally, I like the taste of Acqua Pazza, but I think it is a little difficult to eat because of the small bones, so I don’t use whole fish, but instead remove the head and cut it into three pieces. All that was left was to cut the necessary ingredients into small pieces and simmer them.

 

 The bones and innards disappear into Huey’s body.

 

 

 I wanted to make paella with rice, but I didn’t have time to make a consommé, so it will have to wait for a while. I realize now that instant soup ingredients were very convenient.

 

 

 I served the Acqua Pazza in a deep dish to the owner, who was devastated by the lack of customers.

 

 The owner looked at me and the deep dish alternately with a strange expression on his face, then took a sip of the soup and said, “Delicious,” and ate the Acqua Pazza happily.

 

 Eating something warm makes you feel at ease, doesn’t it?

 

 

 I tried it too, and it was consistently delicious.

 

 While the second batch was finished and the third batch was in progress, I served the owner a loaf of bread with lettuce and thin slices of orc meat, seasoned thickly with soy sauce and ginger, sandwiched between two pieces of Koppe bread.

 

 I seemed to have gained his trust from the Acqua Pazza and he bit into the bread without hesitation.

 

 

“Yummy!” (Owner)

 

“I’m glad it was to your liking.” (Louis)

 

 

 I said to the owner as I offered him a cup of tea.

 

 

“This bread is so soft, how do you make it? Can you tell me how you make it?” (Owner)

 

“The bread requires yeast, which takes a lot of time and effort, so I don’t think I can teach you how to make it in the time I have now. But I can teach you how to make Acqua Pazza, the fish dish you just ate.” (Louis)

 

“I want to learn the dish you just cooked, the Acqua Pazza. Please teach me.” (Owner)

 

“Good. I will teach you when the bread I am baking finishes baking.” (Louis)

 

 

 After the third loaf of bread was baked, I put it in storage and gave the owner a lesson on how to make Acqua Pazza.

 

 On the other hand, I also taught Clams Ajillo, which is delicious to eat alongside hard bread. [T/N: Clams in white wine.]

 

 

“This is delicious, too! The sauce goes well with the bread. It tastes as if it is not bread I serve in my restaurant. And I can serve it to my customers even when tomatoes are not in season!” (Owner)

 

 

 He seemed excited and pleased.

 

 

“You can also use mushrooms for Ajillo, so please experiment with different ingredients.” (Louis)

 

“Thank you. You must be some great chef, aren’t you? I’m going to start selling it at the restaurant tomorrow.” (Owner)

 

 

 I was recognized as a great chef before I knew it.

 

 

“I’ll take my leave then. Good luck tomorrow.” (Louis)

 

 

 If the new dish is marketed at this restaurant tomorrow, it will be served at other restaurants as well.

 

 I hope it will be a good stimulus for the place since the food was not so good in a city where seafood is easily available.

 

 

 After that, I stayed at a hotel for about a week and spent my time defeating monsters, but before I left the city, Jack and Nick came to see me from Vesan Island through the guild with a basket full of fish.

 

 

“You were very helpful in getting us off with just a reward for defeating one of the monsters. Thank you. I brought this for you to eat. Please take it.” (Jack)

 

 

 Jack thanked me and handed me the fish.

 

 

“Thanks to you, I can eat fresh fish. Thanks for the fish.” (Louis)

 

“Louis, take this one too.” (Nick)

 

 

 Nick handed me a box full of clams.

 

 

“I’ll take it, thank you.” (Louis)

 

 

 I tossed the fish and clams into Infinite Storage and invited them to join me for dinner.

 

 I took them to the restaurant where I had taught them how to make Acqua Pazza and Ajillo. Unlike the first time I had come here, the restaurant was full, and all the customers were eating Acqua Pazza and Ajillo.

 

 The restaurant was full, but when I approached the owner, he said, “I am thrilled that you are here Teacher!” he moved the other customers out of the way, and he let us sit down. I was able to buy the two a meal because of this.

 

 

 When did I go from being a great chef to someone’s teacher?

 

 

 It was the first time for both of them to try this dish, and they loved it and said the fish and shellfish were very tasty.

 

 When they moved others out of the way and I was called “master,” They asked, “What the hell did Louis do? Did you cook the food in this restaurant?” I replied, “I just taught him how to cook this dish.” and I was more surprised than them.

 

 I told them that I was going to the next town and then saw them off at the harbor of Vesan Island.

 

 Jack and Nick both walked out of the harbor with their arms waving so wide they might stain themselves.

 

 

 Now that I had enjoyed the sea, I headed for Valmy, the royal capital of the Kingdom of Avrigny.

 

 I looked to see if there were any escort requests heading in that direction but gave up because they were limited to parties, not a group of people. Well, when I thought about it again, I thought it was natural because it required a large number of people to escort caravans.

 

 I took back the Raptor that I had left with the guild and departed from Amphenel. It’s another beautiful, sunny day for departure.
