Under the tree, there was a white-haired old man in a kimono. He was saying something to the air, his mouth opened and closed, but no sound came out.

In front of the old man's heels was a stone shrine that was almost unrecognizable by wind and rain.

Of course, the shrine is still worshipped, and the fresh tributes of desserts in two porcelain bowls are proof of this.

"Yo—"

There was no one in the alley. Seeing that no one was paying attention to this place, Xia Yuxing came and greeted him from afar.

Suddenly, two pairs of eyes that seemed to be there and not be there, staring at each other, with indifference.

But when the indifference was discovered, it immediately dissipated, revealing obvious kindness.

At this time, if a drunk man opened his eyes in the corner and saw Xia Yu waving to the air to the old tree, he would definitely be so scared that he was sweating and awake.

From Xia Yu's perspective, the old man and the female figures that are looming between the trees are very clear.

Coincidentally, Xia Yu recognized both of them.

"It's you?"

"Chef Xia..."

For some reason, after several months, Xia Yu found that the female gods in the stone shrine had a lot of solid body, especially the lines on her face were faintly outlined, probably a very beautiful and gentle woman.

The old man, with white hair pouring down, his blouse and coat was covered with his kimono, standing with his arms in his arms, which was similar to Sensaemon's temperament. Just standing there gave people enough sense of power.

This old man named Nura by Misa Tamakawa, Natsuha spent a while in Tamakawa Courtyard last summer. Speaking of which, he was able to defeat Ayaka Tamakawa thanks to the five-element attribute ingredients provided by the old man.

Therefore, the out-of-print killer dish "Peacock Dance" was born.

Do they know?

Xia Yu stamped his feet and cast his gaze for exploration.

As if he could detect his inner activities, the old man Nura laughed loudly: "You boy, it's been a long time since you saw me. Tao Hui complained to me a few days ago, saying that you kidnapped her granddaughter and that a group of little ghosts and demons in the Tamakawa Courtyard are about to rebel."

Tamakawa Momoe is the director of Tamakawa Courtyard, and is also known as the Four Pillars of the Neon Food World.

"But even if you don't want to see me, I will look for you in a few days..." the old man said haha.

"Is that true?"

Xia Yu just came over to say hello, exchanged a few words before leaving. He could see that the old man was talking to the goddess.

I saw Xia Yu embarking on the way home with her childhood sweetheart.

The old man Nura smiled and suddenly said, "Duinary school, you see it, her mark."

"I knew it at first sight in summer."

"Otherwise, how could a little chef have the power to see the hidden me?"

"Hahaha!"

The old man laughed again: "That's why I said that we will meet him in two days. This event will finally have a chance to appear. I have to talk to her and select the other four."

"Are you sure you refuse after confinement?" the old man asked again.

"Well, Nura, you know my condition too. Although it will not be destroyed now, I am in the recovery period that I have suffered severe damage, and I want to look at that child..."

"All right!"

The old man didn't force it and said cheerfully: "Then I can only go find a few other guys!"

Turning his back, the old man paused.

"In this era, there are fewer and fewer existences like you and me... Take care of it, confinement period, I don't want another old friend who has passed by the Heian era to disappear."

"This is a prosperous era, but not our prosperous era... Alas!" With a faint sigh, the female god retreated back to the stone shrine.

...

Natsuyu and Maki return to the shopping street.

When Maki went home, Xia Yu went to our store by herself.

It's late at night.

Before entering the door, I looked at the apartment building. There was light in Zhu Qing's suite. Xia Yu sat on the chair in the store for a while, browsed the social networking website, flipped through private messages, and chatted with several friends. In the blink of an eye, it was midnight. The Xia Restaurant echoed the sound of the distant bells in the midnight sky.

"Tonight, continue to think about "Four Gods Seafood Eight Treasures Soul-Suppressing Buns"..."

The second stage of the competition is approaching, and Xia Yu always feels urgency. The supreme recipes at hand must be mastered and deepened as soon as possible, so as to add a killer to the team.

“Endless noodle jars!”

When I went to the kitchen, I reached out to touch the void, and heard a crisp clanging sound, and a black pot appeared on the countertop.

He reached in directly and grabbed the "fat fat" in his palm.

Xia Yu was familiar with the way and started using 'double fat', that is, old noodles, mixed with warm water and mixed it, and a large lump of old noodles that were sticky and mud-like, turned into semi-viscous white soup.

Pour the soup into a conditioning bowl, mix it with flour, and knead it.

In fact, the so-called "old noodle" is when the chef of Baikan kneaded dough to make snacks, he deliberately saved a little dough and kneaded it into the dough accumulated in the past. As time goes by, the yeast fermentes, and the "old noodle" looks very fragrant and has a little sour taste.

The "thousand-year-old face" of the Bai Luo family is also similar.

Thousand-year-old noodles do not refer to a piece of dough that has been preserved for thousands of years, but rather, it means that the "old noodles" have been used for the past thousand years, while kneading them into new areas, thus forming a vague balance.

The "thousand-year-old old face" also indirectly illustrates the long-standing foundation of the Bai Luo family.

The white-collar chef and pastry chef in the new era have actually eliminated the "old noodles". The most important reason is yeast!

There are three types of common fermentation agents used in modern times: yeast, baking powder and old noodles.

From a scientific perspective, yeast products are the most direct. The yeast fermented by the product is much cleaner and purer than "Lao Noodles", because you can think about it and you will know that Lao Noodles must have various mixed bacteria during the long-term fermentation of raw fermentation, and even substances and ingredients that are harmful to the human body.

Knowledge in the field of pastry appears in my head.

"pity!"

Xia Yu held the golden pottery jar in his arms and knocked it with his hands, "I won't talk about science in this world!"

What is science to eat? Xia Yu only believes in the things in front of him. The props and materials are written clearly. He uses the "old noodles" produced in this clay pot to knead the dough. After the pasta is ordered, the quality will automatically increase to a big step.

Throw the kneaded large dough into a clean conditioning bowl and close the lid. Next is a relatively long fermentation process. If possible, cover with a wet cloth and the environment should be as warm as possible to provide breeding conditions for the yeast. The fermentation process can greatly speed up.

Dongdong!

Just as I was about to come out of the kitchen, a knock on the door came from the store.

"Are there any guests?" Xia Yu raised her eyebrows.

In the shop street, Xia's shop is famous in Japan, while Xia's shop is not open recently, so there will be no diners coming to the door late at night.

This is a bit strange.

I thought to myself, and immediately looked up and there was no one at the half-closed door.

On the ground, the lights flashed.

The knock on the door was still there, and Xia Yu was actually very calm, without any timidity or panic in his heart, but instead shouted: "Stop knocking, come in first-"

No one silenced.

Even the knocks disappeared.

Xia Yu opened the window facing the bar in the kitchen, poked out half of his body and looked out, his pupils suddenly shrank.

In his vision, a green lamp at the door was faintly exposed, hanging under the blue silk rope, shaking slightly, a graceful figure with his back to the door, holding the pole with his headlight in the room, Xia Yu only saw her white left hand and the big sleeves of the kimono hanging down from his wrist.

A gust of wind blew away a few long blue hair.

Xia Yu was not afraid, and there was a hint of excitement in his eyes that he didn't understand.

"Hello!"

He shouted again, but the store door was empty, as if what he saw just now was just Xia Yu's fantasy.

"...I seem to have seen it in the dream of Yuchuan Courtyard?" Xia Yu grasped the root of the familiarity.

But is that all?
Chapter completed!
