We made the tofuu salad
“Now, let’s mix the tofuu into the salad. Uhh, there might not be enough…depending on how much is used.”
“Yes… Well, I will bring all of it out then. Sebastian, can you help me?”
“Certainly.”
“Mr. Takumi, here it is. I thought that it would be enough for dinner, but…”
While they were big, there were not that many.
They were perhaps twice as big as the ones sold in Japanese supermarkets, and there were twenty of them in all… But considering how much Leo and the fenrirs ate..and also the number of servants, it was not much.
“Well, let’s see… As long as we spread it out, there should be enough for the servants as well.”
“Oh… I was just going to make it for all of you and the fenrirs.”
As the head cook, I suppose she would prioritize Claire and the others.
Especially if it was a new ingredient like this.
However, since they worked hard every day, I wanted the servants to be able to eat it too. Though, they might not even like it.
“Hmm… This time, since it is more of a sample, we should split it up so that everyone can eat a little. And then maybe we can get more the next time the merchant comes to Ractos.”
“Very well. So, how should we do it?”
“Well, we will have to add more vegetables to make up for it. Uh…we’ll just put it into this bowl and mix it up.”
“Just mix it up?”
“It feels bad, since they are in such nice shapes…”
“Hmm, it is so soft.”
“Indeed. At least it makes things easy.”
“Then just add it to the vegetables and put the dressing on.”
“Oh… Yes, this looks quite good. It should be easy to eat.”
“The smell is…not as strong as I thought. Yes, it should be fine.”
With Ms. Helena and Sebastian’s help, we used spoons to mash the tofuu and mix it into the salad.
And then we tasted it.
Perhaps there was nothing similar here, as Ms. Helena seemed to find the texture unusual.
Though, it was very familiar to me.
“Liza!”
“What?”
Once we confirmed that it was good, I called over Liza so that she could help.
She washed her hands and then happily mixed the tofuu vigorously with a spoon. And while some of it went flying, I decided to not say anything.
“Mr. Takumi. You made something new again?”
“So Sebastian told you… Well, it’s just something simple. Ms. Helena happened to find some interesting ingredients.”
“What is it?”
I had left Liza to enjoy helping in the kitchen, while I went out to the back garden in order to see how Leo and the fenrirs were doing.
Liza was quite used to being in the mansion now. So that even when Leo and I were not close by, she would be fine.
Besides, she seemed to be enjoying herself so much.
I was happy about that.
