Chapter 371 Teuchi\'s Persistence
"Next is the noodle part." Teuchi said with some excitement.
After tasting the soup, Teuchi has a certain degree of confidence in Kakashi\'s cooking skills. If the noodle can be worthy of the soup, then it won\'t be a problem to beat for them to beat Hakkaku.
Teuchi and Ayame looked at each other, and then, they started to pick up the noodles together.
"Eh, this noodle seems weird." Teuchi said he looked at the noodles Kakashi made.
Teuchi has made noodles for all of his life, so he naturally knows what the noodles should usually look like. But seeing the noodles now, he feels that his worldview seems is getting subverted.
"Yeah, this noodle doesn\'t seem to be made of flour." Ayame said curiously.
Kakashi smiled and said: "It is indeed not made of flour, but you should try it."
The two were a little curious about the noodle, so they didn\'t think too much, and put the noodles into their mouths.
\'Huh!\'
Teuchi and Ayame felt that a bolt of lightning seems to strike inside their minds at this moment.
"This taste…"
Teuchi was dumbfounded. \'Is this noodle?\'
\'What a strong umami!\'
\'This is the taste of the sea!\'
Eating this bite of noodles making him felt that his whole body is on the bottom of the sea, and the suffocating delicacy continues to roll from the tip of his tongue.
\'Kakashi said before that he is using catfish to make noodles, but if it was catfish, how could it be so chewy!\'
\'What kind of secret is hidden inside this noodle?\'
Teuchi\'s gaze landed on the noodle.
"Huh? This noodle is has something on the inside." Teuchi said in shock.
At this time, Ayame also awoke from the taste of the noodles. She looked at the noodles, and sure enough, she saw that there was a filling in the noodles.
Teuchs chewed the noodles again, and said: "This is… squid? You actually added squid in it?"
"Yes, although the catfish is delicious, it can\'t make the noodles as chewy, and the shredded squid has a very strong chewiness. So, the combination of the two makes it possible to make noodles with a great taste even without flour!"
Kakashi said. He then takes out another bowl of ramen and taste it.
\'The taste is indeed very delicious, not inferior or even slightly better than the one Teuchi-san usually sold.\'
Teuchi looked at Kakashi in shock. His eyes seemed to say, \'Young man, you sure have a lot of ideas, let\'s just cook with me from now on.\'
"Kakashi, you are a genius in making ramen. For you to think of this way to create ramen, it\'s amazing." Teuchi said emotionally.
Kakashi was a little bit dumbfounded when he heard this. Although he is praised as a genius since he was a child, it is the first time for him to be called a genius of ramen.
"Teuchi-san, this idea is not something I came up with. When I was traveling, I saw a chef doing this, so I just copy it."
"So it\'s like that. As expected of the Copy Ninja, Kakashi, you can even actually copy cooking too. Amazing. Can you tell me the name of this chef?"
Kakashi smiled and said: "His name is Liu Mao Xing, and he has a nickname called Chūka Ichiban."
"Chūka Ichiban? What a strange name. No, maybe it\'s because of that he has such a whimsical idea in cooking! The soup of sea bream, the noodles made of catfish and squid, it did not use flour at all, but was able to create such delicious ramen dish!" Teuchi said excitedly.
At this time, Ayame has finished her bowl of ramen and said with excitement: "Kakashi-nii, you are so amazing! Tou-san, if you can make this bowl of ramen, you will definitely win!"
Upon hearing this, Teuchi thought for a while. He then said: "It\'s not that simple. Kakashi, you made this combination of catfish and squid with the help of Chakra, right?"
Kakashi was taken aback as he didn\'t expect Teuchi to know about this.
"Yeah, I used Water Attribute Chakra, to apply that kind of viscosity and combine the two to complete the creation of the noodle."
"Sure enough it\'s like that. But, I am not shinobi, so I cannot do this kind of thing." Teuchi sighed.
"Tou-san, it\'s okay, we can ask Kakashi-nii to help." said Ayame.
Hearing this, the Teuchi refused.
"Ayame, that is cheating. I can\'t accept it. I want to win with my own way of cooking." Teuchi said sternly.
"Tou-san…"
"Well, it\'s fine. After tasting this ramen, I have some inspirations. Three days are enough time for me to make a new type of ramen. Kakashi, thank you."
"I am honored to be able to help you," Kakashi said.
Teuchi patted Kakashi on the shoulder and walked into the kitchen happily.
"Tou-san is too stubborn. If we lose, we must leave Konoha."
"Ayame, don\'t blame Teuchi-san, as a chef, he has his own dignity, and it is normal that he wanted to win without cheating. You have to believe in your father. He will be successful," Kakashi said.
Upon hearing this, Ayame looked at Kakashi, and said, "I understand, thank you, Kakashi-nii."
Kakashi smiled, did not say anything, and just looked at the kitchen. Is it really possible for Teuchi to create new ramen? Kakashi didn\'t know, but he believed Teuchi could do it.
Kakashi believed so because Teuchi is the owner of Ichiraku Ramen. The best ramen restaurant in the world.
Three days passed quickly.
Kakashi\'s position is almost arranged. He will take the over position tomorrow.
"I don\'t know what happened to Teuchi-san. I should go and have a look."
Kakashi said, and go to Ichiraku Ramen again.
"Kakashi-nii, you are here." Ayame said with joy.
"Yeah, how is Teuchi-san\'s research?"
"I don\'t know, tou-san has been in the kitchen for three days. I don\'t know what he is doing." Ayame said with some worry.
"Is that so?" Kakashi murmured.
At this time, a man in his forties walked in. He looked ordinary. The most distinctive feature was a black mask on his nose.
The mask didn\'t cover anything, but the nose.
"Ayame, where is your father?"
"Hakkaku? Why are you here!" Ayame was surprised.
Hearing this, Kakashi looked at the one called Hakkaku, \'This person is Hakkaku? He really has such an ordinary face.
"The three-day deadline has arrived. I naturally want to come over and to see the result. If he can\'t make the dish that makes me admit defeat, tomorrow, I will open my restaurant at the opposite of this." Hakkaku said with a sneer.
"You! You are too much. Why do you want to open your restaurant in Konoha!"
"Of course it is because Konoha\'s environment is very good. As the best of the Five Great Shinobi Villages, Konoha\'s system is so much better than other Shinobi Villages. Opening a shop here is also the safest. The most important thing is that I will be able to defeat Teuchi. This is all I want all this time!" Hakkaku said excitedly.
"Hmph! You must be dreaming! Tou-san will never lose!" Ayame\'s face puffed up with anger.
"Haha, that\'s not necessarily true. Three days ago, Teuchi has shown desperate look. I don\'t believe that in these three days, Teuchi can make a dish that beats my ramen."
"That\'s not necessarily true," Kakashi said.
"Huh? Who are you?" asked Hakkaku.
Facing Kakashi, Hakkaku didn\'t dare to be too arrogant. It is because there is Konoha\'s forehead protector on Kakashi\'s head, and Kakashi is also wearing Konoha\'s Jōnin vest.
Such a person is obviously not someone who Hakkaku can offend.
Before, Hakkaku thought Kakashi was just a customer, but now he knew that Kakashi is Teuchi\'s helper.
"Konoha Jōnin, Hatake Kakashi."
Hakkaku was shocked when he heard this. After all, Kakashi is very famous in the Shinobi World, so he didn\'t expect Kakashi to appear in front of his eyes.
"What do you want to do? This is the grievance between me and Teuchi. You can\'t interfere in this." Hakkaku said anxiously.
"Don\'t worry, I have no plan to intervene. I know that you will be defeated by Teuchi-san." Kakashi said with a smile.
Kakashi\'s smile made Hakkaku quite uncomfortable. He then said, "Hmph, that\'s impossible."
At this moment, a strong fragrance suddenly emerged from the kitchen, making the three people silent for a while.
Hakkaku was shocked and said: "This smell… how is it possible! It\'s so rich! It can give me such a strong impact even when I\'m wearing a mask, is this… the smell of the sea…?"
"Tou-san!" Ayame exclaimed in surprise.
At this time, Teuchi came out of the kitchen with an excited smile on his face, and he is also holding a bowl of ramen in his hand.
"Oh? Hakkaku? You are just right on time, this is my special seafood noodles!"
Teuchi said as he put the ramen in the front of Hakkaku.
"Hmph, it\'s useless if it\'s just the smell. If the ramen is not delicious, everything is in vain!" said Hakkaku. He then took a spoon, and takes a sip at the soup.
"Huh!"
Hakkaku\'s eyes widened instantly!
"This taste!"
Hakkaku said as he tastes the soup.
He then picked up the noodle and swallowed it in one bite.
Boom!
The noodles seem to burst in Hakkaku\'s mouth, and the unparalleled terrifying strength spreads in an instant!
"This, this…what kind of noodle is this, how can it be so chewy!"
Hakkaku looked at the ramen in front of him in shock, but his hands didn\'t stop at all.
He ate the ramen bite by bite. In the end, he didn\'t even let the last drop of the soup go. He ate it all!
Both Ayame and Kakashi are happy when they saw this. With such performance, the outcome is already obvious.
"It\'s really a delicious ramen that people can\'t stop eating. I can\'t even control myself. Teuchi, how did you make it! I can understand the taste of the soup, but how can the noodle be so delicious!" Hakkaku said in disbelief.
Teuchi laughed and said: "Hahaha, this is the noodle I make after researching for three days. I called this, Teuchi Special Seafood Noodles! The delicious fish soup is used to blend the perfect fish dough, and then every squid shreds are added to each noodle, making its texture even more powerful! After countless failures, I finally succeeded!"
"What? It was actually added with squid! And it is every one of the noodle! This…What a patience!" said the shocked Hakkaku.
Hearing this, Kakashi secretly thought: \'It turned out that Teuchi-san gave up the catfish meat as the shell of the noodles, but extracted all the umami into the dough. It takes a lot of effort to calculate the best proportion.\'
"Hakkaku, how is it? I won this time, right?" Teuchi said with a smile.
Hakkaku showed a gloomy expression as he knew that he did lose. At the moment he ate all the noodles, he lost.
Hakkaku didn\'t try to deny the result. As a cooking-nin, he has his own pride and will accept the result.
"Teuchi, you are really good. This time, I lost, but I will come back again!"
After Hakkaku finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Great! Tou-san, we won!" said Ayame excitedly.
Teuchi also said triumphantly: "Yes, we won! Hahaha, Kakashi, thank you so much for your help this time."
Kakashi smiled and said: "It\'s nothing, I just made an idea. Teuchi-san, you beat Hakkaku with your own ability."
"In any case, I owe you a favor, and I will definitely pay you back in the future!" Teuchi said with a smile.
Kakashi didn\'t refuse when he heard this. He knew about Teuchi\'s straightforward personality… So it won\'t be good if he refused him.
