=====
Heat the wok, add cold oil, put in the shrimp heads and fry over low heat until the red oil seeps out, then remove the shrimp heads.
Next, add minced garlic and minced ginger and stir-fry until fragrant.
Turn to low heat, add shacha sauce and peanut butter, and slowly stir-fry until fragrant.
Then add an appropriate amount of water. Although the sauce already has flavor, it's still a sauce, so the taste is a bit lacking. Add appropriate amounts of sugar, salt, light soy sauce, and pepper...
"My broth here just needs another ten minutes of simmering and it'll be about done. Mizuki, how's your side?"
At this moment, Mizuki was still precisely timing things...
Mr. Cid likes the fish balls cooked for 5 minutes...
The alkaline water noodles need 4 minutes...
The shrimp need to turn red...
"Wh... what is it!? Mr. Cid?"
Miss Yumemizuki asked belatedly.
To this, Mr. Cid could only give a helpless smile.
"It's nothing. Just keep an eye on the broth for me. It'll be ready in ten minutes. I'm going to make the fried tofu now."
The way to make Miko's special fried tofu isn't difficult; the key is still in matching the sauce...
This is the time to show off one's mastery over foxes...
Miyuki seemed to have mentioned Yae Miko's tastes during casual chat with me...
Fried skewers, sake, fried tofu novels...
Anemo activated, beginning to collect the faint fox scent drifting from the living room to the kitchen...
Fox udon.
Based on my judgment, this pink-furred fox Yae Miko's tastes should lean heavily toward "freshness" and "layers," and she avoids anything bland.
So for the sauce...
The sauce can't be too bland. It needs freshness, so start with a dashi base from kombu, katsuobushi, and the like.
Then, since she likes layers, the sweet, salty, and umami flavors need to balance. Consider adding an appropriate amount of miso, soy sauce, mirin, or sugar.
Considering she's a Guuji, her palate is probably quite refined, so she might need katsuobushi for extra umami, plus appropriate seasonings...
Perhaps add some shiitake mushrooms to enhance umami and texture...
No, I don't want to eat mushrooms...
The old uncle Cid patted his head.
No good, making it this complicated—will lunch even get eaten? This isn't small wooden cabin time anymore. Keep it simple...
Let's use the all-purpose sauce I learned from Xiangling...
The kitchen was bustling with heat, and the living room was also quite heated.
Raiden Shogun looked at Yae Miko.
Everything was normal. According to guest etiquette, this was the time to compliment the host.
"Very good. Guuji Yae is indeed a law-abiding good youkai."
When Yae Miko heard this, she nearly suffered internal injuries from holding back...
What kind of tone is this—like praising a child...
Don't get angry, don't get angry...
This Shogun is just a simple, inexperienced puppet...
No need to get upset with a person... with Raiden Shogun. It's not worth it, not worth it...
It should be said that only those closest to you can most easily stir your emotions.
If it were Kirara, Yae Miko might have just laughed it off, but facing Raiden Shogun, an nameless fire surged up...
Yae Miko looked at cat Kirara sitting beside her...
Then she leaned close to cat Kirara's ear and said.
"Actually, you're a cat, not a fox, you know~"
In that instant, after cat Kirara received the [cat certificate] from her [fox senior]...
I... I'm not a fox? I've been expelled from the fox pack?
Cat Kirara collapsed to the floor, turning into a petrified cat with no dreams...
Watching this scene, Yae Miko instantly felt refreshed and clear-headed.
That felt good.
