Producer: | Has everyone in Alchemist already started making the dumplings? |
Producer: | (It looks like Kuro has been having fun with the others lately… It seems that their distance is slowly shortening) |
Producer: | (A little while ago, such a thing would be unbelievable. I’m really happy about this change…) |
Producer: | I have to do my best and make preparations too! |
*~* | |
Producer: | (I asked UJ-san a little while ago and he said that Kuro and the others are definitely in the kitchen…) |
Producer: | (There’s a nice smell of cheese coming from the kitchen… Why?) |
*Ching!* | |
Producer: | (The oven’s sound? Maybe they’re making something else for the time being?) |
*Door opening* | |
Producer: | (Eh?! The door suddenly opened?) |
Saku: | Aha! It really is Producer-chan! |
Producer: | Uwah! S-Saku-kun? |
Producer: | You surprised me… You opened the door right when I was about to touch the handle. Were you about to leave? |
Saku: | Ah, I bet you think it’s a coincidence? Wrong. It was in・e・vi・ta・ble!~ |
Saku: | I heard Producer-chan’s footsteps from the corridor and opened the door. |
Producer: | I-Is that so… |
Saku: | Now, sit down, sit down~ You’ve come at the right time to taste it! |
Producer: | R-Right. Don’t mind if I come in. |
Kuro: | You’ve come at the right time. We’ve just finished the first one. |
Baber: | Baber helped too! He’s confident in it! |
Producer: | Everyone tried hard for it, huh. How nice! |
Producer: | (They’re all making incredibly smug faces…But that aside, their faces are covered in flour. Just what were they making...) |
Kuro: | ...It’s the Alchemist moon viewing special. |
Producer: | Eh? This is… Pizza!? |
Saku: | With plenty of cheese, bacon and spinach, it’s a Carbonara pizza with egg yolk in the middle. |
Kuro: | We tried to picture the moonlight with cheese clouds, and the full moon with the egg yolk. I’d say we did a pretty good job. |
Producer: | The fact that you baked a pizza is amazing! Did you make it from scratch? |
Kuro: | Yeah, it was cheaper than buying it. From now on our pizza will be handmade. |
Baber: | Woaah!! Kuro sounds like a chef! |
Saku: | Now, Producer-chan. Try it while it’s hot. |
Producer: | Well then, only one bite… Mhm! It’s great! The dough is springy, it feels like I’m eating one from a restaurant! It’s delicious! |
Kuro: | Fuh, that’s a given. There’s still more. |
Producer: | Thank you. ...But isn’t the moon viewing party today? |
Kuro: | What are you saying now of all times. Isn’t that why you also came here? |
Producer: | I was wondering why it’s a pizza… Oh, do Italians have a custom of eating pizza at moon viewing? |
Saku: | Ah~ ... ...I-I wonder if they do. |
Baber: | The reason for that is reeeaally embarrassing! |
Kuro: | Actually, after we went our separate ways at the supermarket, I couldn’t find dumpling flour. |
Kuro: | Not paying attention, Baber bought a different kind of flour-- |
Kuro: | Nh? Th-This is!! |
Kuro: | ...Wheat flour!? |
Baber: | It was half the price for two, a very good deal! Baber is good at saving! |
Kuro: | (A package of wheat flour and a package of bread flour for the price of one… We can’t make moon viewing dumplings with these) |
Saku: | Kuro, are you still feeling down? I got the bean paste. ... Are you planning to make bread with wheat flour and bread flour? |
Baber: | With bean paste and bread, you make anpan! |
Kuro: | Baber, with wheat flour, the moon viewing dumplings… |
Baber: | It’s okay. Wheat flour is white too. That’s why, we can make the dumplings! |
Kuro: | Dumpling flour is made of rice, wheat flour is made of wheat. I really don’t think we can just change them. |
Baber: | They’re both harvested in autumn! |
Saku: | Baber, you’re awesome! So knowledgeable~ |
Baber: | Ban-kun taught me that! He said that autumn is full of delicious food. |
Saku: | Kuro, can you make something with wheat flour? It’ll probably be better to make various other things than dumplings. Look, we can’t eat noodles and bread. |
Kuro: | You’re right. |
Kuro: | (We couldn’t get dumpling flour, the flour Baber bought is right here) |
Kuro: | (Saku said we can also make other dishes… In other words…) |
Kuro: | Let’s make use of the wheat flour and make the best dish for the moon viewing party. |
Kuro: | In the name of Alchemist! |
Kuro: | Originally, the event called moon viewing was celebrated to thank the autumn harvest. It’s the custom to make dumplings that look like the moon with the harvested rice. |
Kuro: | So, if we make moon viewing-like dishes with the wheat flour we got we can still hold the moon viewing party! |
Producer: | I see…! |
Saku: | Kuro, is it alright if we make one more pizza? |
Baber: | Baber will put the cheese on it! |
Kuro: | Don’t forget the eggs. |
Producer: | (More than anything, they seem to be having fun!) |
Producer: | What else are you going to make? |
Kuro: | From now on, you’ll help out too. You can get ready there. |
Producer: | Right, I got it. |
Saku: | Doesn’t cooking with Producer-chan make us seem like newly-weds!? Fufufu, say ahhh. |
Baber: | Saku…! This is bad! The pizza won’t fit…! |
Saku: | Woah! It’s sticking out of the oven, how big did you make it! Baber hold it in! The pizza is going to fall out! |
Kuro: | Y-You two?! Don’t let go of it! If you don't put it on the board of course it won't fit! |
Producer: | Fu-haha. It really is fun to cook with everyone! |
Kuro: | Don’t laugh, come help! |
Producer: | Okay! |
