Chapter 13: [Chapter 013] ~~
Are you really trying to compete right now?
Don't show off your love here!
Please be serious. Give the desserts on the table a little due respect.
Akanegakubo Momo felt that she had never been so angry before. It was always a dessert made by herself, which attracts everyone's attention.
When was someone stealing her limelight?
At this moment, Akanegakubo Momo looked like a furious little lioness.
It looks cute and fierce.
Kobayashi Rindou looked back with in embarrassment.
I have to say that she was really moved by Shijun's sincerity just now.
Also the Baumkuchen made by the other party was very stunning in appearance.
Heart-shaped, peach-colored exterior, with japanese text written in blood red cream. Topped with dark chocolate and purple grapes.
From the outside, this is a very beautiful dessert. As for why Shijun wrote it in Japanese?
You didn't need to ask. He is a man who has sign-in for eight years.
A total of 2922 days. Check in once a day. Even if most of them are useless junk.
But he also learned a lot of practical skills. One of them was the proficiency in speaking and writing in Japanese.
Nothing to be surprised about.
Looking at her best friend's eager eyes, Kobayashi Rindou decided to try Akanegakubo Momo's cake first.
She and Tsukasa each carried their plates. As expected of the fourth seat of the Tōtsuki Elite Ten.
The cakes made by Akanegakubo Momo seem to melt in their mouth, sweet but not greasy.
The faint fragrance was directoy transmitted to the brain through the stimulation of the tongue coating. Even if it was not the first time for them to taste each other's food.
Rindou and Tsukasa were brought into their childhood memory.
This felt like they were in a children's paradise. The cake brought back their happiest childhood memories. Reminiscing about the incomparably wonderful taste.
Kobayashi Rindou slowly opened her eyes. Her eyes were full of praise.
Akanegakubo Momo's dessert was simply impeccable.
Seeing the expressions on the faces of Kobayashi Rindou and Eishi Tsukasa, Akakubo Momo seemed to have the chance to win, and raised her head towards Shijun like a provocation.
No way, who told her that the height difference between her and the other party wae too big.
Every time she looked at Shijun, she have to hold her head up.
Shijun smiled. He was really speechless towards his girlfriend's best friend.
Her main characteristics were really looked like a little adult, even if she made some provocative actions, it was impossible look angry.
Instead, she looked... kinda cute!
Kobayashi Rindou and the Eishi Tsukasa set their sights on Shijun's cake.
The other party is about to cut the cake. In Kobayashi Rindou's beautiful eyes, a trace of reluctance flashed.
She really liked this dessert. At the same time, she also deeply remember Shijun's thoughts. She didn't want this intention to be 'destroyed'.
But as a chef, she knew very well that when cooking was made, it was eaten. So she didn't stop Shijun from cutting the cake.
A small piece of delicate cake was placed on the plate.
Surprisingly, the sweets made by the other party were not as strong as when they were made, it was only a very light aroma that could be smelled now.
At this time, the Kobayashi Rindou and the rest were surprised to find that the cakes made by Xie Jun, the number of layers shown, it seems to be more than Akikokubo Momo?
With the eyesight of the three of them, they can judge the number of layers without much observation.
And the answer surprised them, Shijun madr four more layers than Akanegakubo Momo.
But as you know, the other party made a Baumkuchen by hand.
Akanegakubo Momo understood the difficulty. She knew very well that it would be difficult to reach that much layers without the help of a machine.
And Xie Jun, with only his hands, completed this extraordinary skill. For a time, she looked at him with a little more solemnity.
Compared with skill alone, she has already lost.
However, cooking always depends on the taste.
After the three of them were shocked. Looking at Shijun's again, there was a little more admiration and acknowledgment.
This was an admiration for his superb skills. Then, they started tasting Shijun's Baumkuchen.
With just one bite, the expressions of the three of them changed.
Akakunagakubo Momo's face froze even more. As Tōtsuki Academy, the top pastry chef. Her knowledge of desserts can be said to be the pinnacle in Academy even in Japan (Maybe).
Every desserts, in just one bite, She could instantly judge the strengths and weaknesses of it.
The dessert made by Shijun. Impeccable perfection in the uniformity, look and taste.
Even if she racked her brains, she couldn't pick out a single fault.
This dessert has no fishy smell.
Eggs, orange juice, cream, spices...
All the ingredients come together to create an unbelievably wonderful flavor.
Akanegakubo Momo had to admit. Shijun's desert was on par with her own in terms of taste.
However-
The senses of cooking were completely different.
If she talk about her own desserts, she absolutely could remind the diners' childhood memory.
Then Shijun's cake sas about the struggle of life and their results.
Savoring the desert in her mouth, Akanegakubo Momo seemed to recall how old she was when she was struggling with a cooking bowl.
It seemed she have seen the past again, practicing hard day and night. It takes hard work and a lot of hard work to finally get where she was today.
Inexplicably, Akanegakubo Momo looked at Shijun with a complicated look.
It's hard to imagine that this guy with some kind of "double" personality has such a mature view of life.
It was like an annual rings process.
The trees keep growing, and the rings in them keep increasing. Until in the end, it could grow into a towering tree.
Shijun's dessert, through the interpretation of life, perfectly interprets the meaning of "annual rings".
At this moment, Akanegakubo Momo was extremely curious. What kind of training has the other party experienced over the years?
How can he perfectly integrate bis own perception and the taste of the ingredients into a single dish?
The feeling of Kobayashi Rindou is different from Akanegakubo Momo. Mostly, she tasted Shijun's heart for herself. She closed her eyes and was immersed in the deliciousness.
It was as if she saw a young man sweating in the mountains.
It seems to see the happy smile of the young man when he surfs the Internet in the middle of the night.
It is like-
In front of this tall and handsome little boy, in those dull days the happiest thing every day was chatting with herself online.
Thinking of this, a tear kinda welled up in her tightly closed eyes.
The world's cooking did not lie, and all the thoughts are in it.
Kobayashi Rindou slowly opened her eyes with a bright smile on her face.
Marvelous!
