“It’s not in the form of a course.”

The chairman said while holding chopsticks with brown patterns through the black trees.

With that said, the meal was not prepared in course form.

I looked at the eight porcelain bowls on the table and one stone pot bowl and said:

“Yes. Gucheop Bansang (九楪飯床) is a traditional Korean traditional dish. It is said that in the past, it was a precious table that only aristocrats called four-year-olds could enjoy.”

“Umm.”

It sounds like it’s very plausible, but it’s not really a goofy bansang. Because just because there are nine bowls doesn’t mean you’re a gourd.

According to the traditional method, rice, kimchi, and soup are basic foods that are excluded from Gucheop.

So, strictly speaking, it is correct to say that it is about five chess, not old ones. It’s not a real octopus, but a table that mimics octopus.

However, there is a difference in presentation between Gucheopbansang, which only the in-laws can eat, and Ocheopbansang, which can be eaten by ordinary nobles as well as heaven and earth.

After all, the president probably doesn’t know much about Korean traditional bansang.

If I’m the only one who keeps my mouth shut, they’ll think I’m a go-getter, and then the chairman will be satisfied and things will go well for me.

Even if it’s not a real gourmet table, there are nine bowls on the outside, so it looks gorgeous.

Of course, the president just looked around the dinner table without any change in his expression.

I have no idea what you’re thinking just by looking at it. It seems that an emotionless doll is sitting in front of the table.

Still, it was a success just by not wrinkling your face or spitting out cold words.

The president sighed in silence.

“It’s not a bad choice not to put it on the course. Haute cuisine (traditional French-style high-end traditional course cuisine) was terribly boring.”

done.

He clenched his fists from below so as not to be seen.

The intended strategy worked.

The president, who had been eating the finest course meals every day, seemed to find the Hanjeongsik style of Hansang-style, which I used as a motif, fresh.

Judging from the knowledge in the game and the experiences he had in real life, President Carin Shiho Lee was the type of person who was inflamed by things he already knew or could easily predict, and was interested in something new that was unexpected.

“By the way—I heard that I had lost my memories in Korea, and I was told that I had lost my I know quite a bit. Did you get your memory back?”

Oops.

My heart sank at the thought of asking questions while rummaging through the rice inside the stone pot with chopsticks.

It was. When the president asked about my origins, my answer was that.

I don’t remember well. It seems that the memories before escaping from Milicia’s laboratory were lost.

It seems that only the memories of the language, culinary skills, and other real-life parts that I know come to mind sporadically.

It was a simple excuse for amnesia, but… In some ways, it was true.

It has nothing to do with memory, but it is true that there is no information about New Mecca Korea at all.

All I remember is the Republic of Korea a century ago.

For some reason, the chairman passed my sloppy excuses at that time, but it is natural that there is something uncomfortable in the corner of my heart.

So, I couldn’t help but be puzzled by the question of whether the memory had been recovered.

“It’s thanks to the culinary skills I had in my head and the experience of working in a restaurant that awakened my knowledge of food.”

Of course, aside from being embarrassed, it’s not difficult to improvise in response to embarrassing questions.

The chairman nodded his head lightly in response to my gentle answer.

“It’s not like I was expecting it to be cooked. I expect that my knowledge of cooking has returned a lot more over the past period. I’ll see how it goes.”

after… .

There is no way that a person about Si-ho Lee’s iron-blooded president would have asked that question for no reason, and probably stabbed him once.

He somehow managed to get over it, but the problem was that he hadn’t even started eating yet.

While working at a restaurant, he met all kinds of VIPs, but Karin Lee Shiho was the one who had to pay extra attention to it.

It’s really hard to keep this bloody conversation going until the president’s dinner is over… .

“Is this cauldron rice?”

As if to turn her attention to food again, Karin Ishiho asked while touching the stone pot, the rice mixed with meat and bean sprouts inside, and the seasoning sauce next to it.

“Yes. This is a Korean-style kamameshi made with bean sprouts and pork. It is delicious if you mix the seasoning sauce properly with a spoon. You can eat it as is, or you can eat it with other side dishes.”

In short, it is bean sprouts stone pot rice.

Soaked rice, water, and bean sprouts were placed in a stone pot, and then roasted pork with ginger, garlic and salt was added to cook rice.

This is a simple yet difficult recipe that I made often before coming to Dusk City.

The reason why there is difficulty is because it is difficult to control the fire. If the fire is high, the rice will burn, but if it is weak, it will be undercooked.

You have to change the intensity of the fire to maintain just the right level, but since the pot cannot be opened in the middle to check the internal condition, you have to complete it by looking at only the sound, smell, and visible flame.

It was usually not difficult. It was not an easy dish to bring out the perfect result.

And today’s bean sprouts stone pot rice… .

‘Perfect by my standards.’

Even raising a spoon and mixing the rice with the sauce seemed like a very sophisticated and luxurious act as the chairman did it.

However, even without the presence of a character named Karin Lee Shiho, the rice itself was wrinkled and shiny thanks to the golden bean sprouts. It can be seen that there is a moderate amount of nurungji on the bottom.

From the outside, it looked like it couldn’t be tasteless.

I brought it out with the lid of the pot closed and opened it only when it was presented in front of the president, so I couldn’t see the liver, but I was sure of that.

How about the taste of Chairman Lee Shi-ho?

Put an amount enough to fill half of a spoon between your red lips and chew well.

He swallowed gently and gave an evaluation.

“It’s good that it doesn’t smell.”

A light compliment. That was the end of it.

However, this alone is an achievement that cannot be ignored. If you add up the story about the table configuration earlier, you have already been praised twice.

It was also a good choice to choose the stone pot rice.

It’s been a while since I last cooked it, so I was worried about whether I could make it perfectly, but I also had some beliefs.

This is Dusk City’s state-of-the-art kitchen system.

In particular, the technology related to high-end cooking has been developed continuously, and the commercial range of the Hot Section and the dishes that need to be heated using it are all automated systems, so there is no need for human intervention in the middle.

Of course, the ability to handle the range system is another matter, and if you can’t adjust it by setting detailed temperature changes and conditions in advance, it will be like a pig’s neck pearl necklace.

How to manage a fire control system is completely engraved in my head while working in a high-end restaurant.

Because the kitchen environment was different, the interface was not exactly the same, but it was not difficult to get used to.

Therefore, it was completed much easier, faster, and perfectly by saving time than expected without directly controlling the fire.

This was also the area of cooking technology, and I succeeded in covering it with the skills I had accumulated over the years.

Fortunately, the president’s mouth didn’t seem to bother him too much.

It may not be a perfect answer, but I think I can get 6 to 70 points out of 100.

The chairman, Karin Shiho Lee, put down the spoon and looked at the neatly placed food on the porcelain bowl again.

“I said there was no course… Isn’t the order of eating not fixed?”

“Yes. You can choose the rice and side dishes according to the president’s judgment.”

“I like that.”

The president then raised the spoon without thinking deeply.

A large porcelain bowl placed next to a stone pot, a thin soup with green onions and a little oil floating inside.

Stir the white chicken and nurungji that floated on top of the soup with a spoon.

“Chicken soup?”

“This is Korean chicken soup, Samgyetang. It is made by adding glutinous rice, jujube, ginseng, and garlic to the inside of the chicken and boiling it, and then adding green onions, boiled chicken, and scorched rice called nurungji in the broth.”

“Chicken soup with whole chicken, that’s unusual.”

Once you get your attention, you’ve succeeded.

Samgyetang was also one of my secrets.

Since rice and soup are the basics of Hanjeongsik and Korean table setting, I was particularly focused on choosing the recipe.

It’s impossible to serve kimchi stew, soybean paste stew, or sundubu stew to the president.

Of all the things I know, Samgyetang was the one that I wanted to express in the most luxurious way and yet capture the flavor well.
