Chapter ss1
I put butter, sugar, egg, flour and the most important ingredient into a bowl and mixed .
Of course, I didn’t mix them all at once .
I mixed the ingredients in order, according to the recipe that I’d remembered from my time in Japan .
A lot of people mess up because they don’t follow the measurements and steps while making sweets .
When I came to this world, I surprised people when I made food with medicinal herbs or the so-called herbs, but the ingredients I’m using to make this sweet is also used for medicine .
In my world, the ingredient, cocoa, was also used in medicines for longevity .
It was one of the ingredients for chocolate .
Chocolate is sold at the Royal Capital, and I was happy when I found it .
Since they had so much chocolate for sale, I started searching and found some cocoa .
Today, I’m going to make brownies with cocoa .
Seasons have passed since I’ve been summoned .
And it should be February in Japan .
I wanted to make some sweets with chocolate when I remembered this .
I didn’t have a boyfriend when I was a student, but I made chocolate sweets every year to give to friends .
I poured the mixture into moulds and put it in the oven . Now, time to wait .
I read a book while waiting .
Then, a sweet smell tingled my nose when I was immersed in my book .
It should be done soon .
I thought, then opened the oven . It was baked nicely .
“What’re you making today?”
When I took the brownies out of the oven and put them on a table to cool, Jude came; probably because he was lured by the smell .
Apparently, this was his first time seeing baked sweets made from chocolate . He tilted his head in curiosity .
“Did you burn it?”
“Nope, it’s supposed to be this colour . ”
“Oh?”
It certainly does look burnt if someone has never seen brownies before .
No, but you should be able to tell from the smell .
“It looks like you messed up . ”
“I won’t give you any if you say that . ”
“I’m joking . Sorry,” Jude quickly apologised when I told him I wasn’t giving him any .
Jude really likes sweets .
So much so, that he’s the first researcher to come taste my food whenever I cook .
But, the people who taste it first are actually the chefs who cook with me .
I think it tastes better if it cools down, but there is someone here who can’t wait to try it in front of me, so I cut off bite-size slices from the edge .
It looks delicious, but how does it taste?
I put a piece in my mouth, and it was as delicious as it was in the past .
“Do you want to try some?”
There were no chefs here because I baked by myself today .
I wanted to hear someone else’s opinion, so I asked Jude, and he nodded happily .
I tried to find a small plate so I could give him a piece, but he couldn’t wait and opened his mouth .
Huh? What?
Are you telling me to put it in your mouth?
Fine then . I smiled wryly and put a piece in his mouth .
Jude smiled after he’d chewed a bit .
“Tasty?” I asked, and he nodded in reply .
I’m glad you like it .
Then, Director showed up .
“Ooh, you’re making something today too . ”
“It’s not finished yet, but do you want to try some?”
“Sure . ”
Director was also one of my regular food tasters .
Director laughed when I put a piece on a small plate for him .
“Aren’t you going to feed it to me?”
“Wait, you saw that?”
My face turned red as blood rushed to my face from embarrassment .
He told me that he arrived when I was feeding Jude the brownie .
He said he just watched us because he thought it would be rude to interrupt .
Still, he should have pretended that he didn’t see anything!
I thought and glared at Director . He laughed and patted my head .
