Isekai de Café wo Kaiten Shimashita - Vol. 2 Ch. 14

"His Majesty brought this girl in to teach you her cooking. An important event is coming up and they really want her cooking. Don't fuck this up."

Oh, I know! Let's ignore her and try to drive her out! That wont get us fucking executed at all!
 
This was literally unfair, it's almost like pitting a low level player vs a high level one.
She's maxed out on knowledge and modern cooking skills while the guy is stuck several decades behind. At least he admitted it himself.
 
@IMACOP Even she probably doesn't have at the cafe the freezer unit required to make raw fish safe to eat; so she's probably avoiding it all together at the castle dinner since food poisoning could lead to war.
 
@Doenyon - Agreed. At some point, I'd like there to be something cook in this world does better than her or that she doesn't know about that she learns from. That would make for a more interesting story.

Also, I can't fathom a "food" culture that developed without basic flavor principles. The Romans shish-kebabbed mice and apparently, they were delicious. I'd be interested in trying garum in various dishes as well.
 
@HDMI1 I'm just taking a stab at 99.999% of the other isekai stories that start going the food route and casually putting out sashimi without a care for food poisoning and stuff, for the western medieval fantasy people who lived with no culture/habit of eating raw stuff, and making them go "This is teh best food evEr!!11!".

I believe a better portrayal of introducing sashimi should be - the isekai people looks at it and goes, "IT'S RAW!!! You stupid donkey!". 😛
 
Lately there have been a lot of isekai that think Keith is an exotic name, it's a bit jarring as it's my brothers name. 😅
 
The one time I felt like the MC's cooking would taste worse than the crappy chef's cooking (especially since these are just colorless images)

The biggest reason being that I hate fishballs. Not sure whether the common fishball is more other things and not fish but fishballs don't taste like fish. Fishcake don't taste like fish OR cake, fish noodles are basically fishballs in noodle shape.

Then my uncle cooked the three together for a 'fishnoodle with fishball and fishcake.' Where all three are literally the same thing with different shapes. I think im already traumatized -_-.
 
This is kind of bullshit. He's literally behind the primal people in cooking skills, and he's supposed to be a royal chef? There's god damned spices, oils, herbs, quality meat available. Are you telling me that thousands of years hasn't given a ounce of good quality food? They fucking have rice for gods sake, someone should have accidentally found out about their use in everyday food. That's how bread and shit got found out. Pasta got invented because some poor guy did some random experiment based upon nothing! ONE POOR GUY!
 
@Nep

comercial fish ball, fish << other stuff, eg flour
homemade fish ball, fish > other stuff.

It makes a major difference in taste
 
@blake77

While I do know that much, the only fishballs I ever see are the shitty ones that everybody around me (except my brother) loves to hell for some reason. My uncle's cooking for example are simply three different shapes of literally the same thing with the exact same taste.

Even though I know better, in the end, when someone says "fishball" the only thing I can imagine are the stuff of nightmares(somewhat exaggerated, please don't feed me bugs)
 
The existence of umami is not really up for debate anymore, iirc it's been proven that our taste buds actually have receptors specifically for it.
I'll see if I can find the video on it again.

Edit: This isn't the video I mean, but it'll work too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ8Za69w0uA
 
The existence of umami is not controversial at all lmao

Seriously, where is this mythical human being who disputes the existence of umami?
 
Hot damn. Risa lit a fire under their arses FAST. XDDD What a burn, girl. That was perfect!!
 
The existence of umami was "controversial" in the '90s because Western scientists didn't bother researching a Japanese series of studies. In other words, you'll find that it's "controversial" in textbooks that are over 20 years old.
 
Oh hey. She was able to handle this all herself without any more than basic fair assist from the guy. Nice.

I guess the kitchen and realm of chefs is her domain, and she won't tolerate this caveman food.
