Chapter 8
Kenma and Hinata
The competition began, Hinata started by making homemade rice noodles while Kenma worked on a Broth and cutting some seasonal ingredients.
Hinata’s noodles were handmade and came out translucent and a bit chewy. They were always better chewy because you have to eat it slower and savor the taste.
Kenma was chopping up mushrooms, chives and Kikurage to add to the thick broth. Kenma had the chicken meat minced before placing it over to Hinata to cook along with a tray of eggs.
Hinata started cooking the meat before looking at the golden broth Kenma was cooking, “mmh smells good Kenma!”
“Thank you Sho...yours smells good as well..” Kenma mumbled.
“Thank you!”
“Woah you guys are making homemade San Cian noodles? And here I thought our dish was fancy.” Kiyoko giggled out.
Kiyoko and Yachi
“Let’s do something sweet. It may be because I’m having bad cravings and cramps at the moment but I want sweetness,” Kiyoko explained, getting a nod from Yachi.
“That would be perfect! I’ve been craving strawberries and something cold like Ice cream. What if we do a dish that incorporates Ice cream?” Yachi asked.
“Mmmh pancakes of waffles?”
“Waffles.” Yachi answered before grabbing flour, baking soda, sugar, salt, vanilla extract and cinnamon.
Yachi started making a waffle batter while Kiyoko started cutting up fruit and pulling the ice cream out of the fridge to soften. After the batter was done Yachi and Kiyoko both started cooking waffles out of 4 different heart shaped waffle makers.
Kiyoko started making the plates and scooping the ice cream while Yachi continued to cook the waffles. They had light chatter and were laughing at how Oikawa’s flat and how annoying Noya and Tanaka have been.
Kiyoko started smelling a delicious aura and went to check it out, she saw Kenma and Hinata laughing while making San Cian Noodles.
“Woah you guys are making homemade San Cian noodles? And here I thought our dish was fancy.” Kiyoko giggled out.
Yukie and Kaori
“Let’s do a more traditional dish! I overheard Yachi~Chan and Kiyoko~Chan are going to do sweet and Kenma~Kun and Sho~Chan are making some type of rice dish or maybe noodles.” Kaori explained getting a nod in return.
“What about smoked salmon with Miso soup and rice?” Yukie asked.
“Perfect!” Kaori said, almost jumping in joy.
Kaori started on making Miso soup and boiling water for the rice while Yukie started on the salmon.
Kaori grabbed more bowls then human possible in her arms and carried them over to where the rice was done boiling. Kaori started making bowls of rice and stirring the miso soup.
Yukie had put a nice lemon seasoning to help bring out the flavor of the smoked salmon.
Kiyoko told the coaches what was happening earlier so the coaches would know if the competition.
“Alright boys today the managers along with Hinata and Kozume had a competition. They made breakfast and you all get to vote on which is the best.”
“Ooh!”
“Kiyoko made fun just for us!”
“Our goddess!”
“HEY HEY HEY! My prodigy made fun for me Agaahsi”
“Bokuto~san calm down.”
“Stop stealing my children Bokuto!”
“Wow I didn’t think that shrimp even knows how to cook, let alone be good at it.”
“Good one Tsukki!”
“Shut up Yamaguchi”
“Gomen Tsukki”
“Hey I can cook!”
Soon all the boys and the managers had a small bowl of San Cian noodles, a platter of fried salmon to share between four boys, miso soup, rice and a small plate of pancakes.
Kenma and Hinata were walking with the managers to a table when a yell broke the loud cafeteria.
“HOLY SHIT THIS IS GOOD!” Noya yelled while holding up the bowl of noodles, Hinata and Kenma both turned a bit pink at the compliment. Soon everyone was trying the noodles and yelling about the flavor, texture, broth and the soft fluffy fried egg.
The coaches just had a bowl of the soup along with the salmon, choosing not to eat the sugary waffles. They even complimented the mystery cook.
“Wow this is good! Thank you Hinata~San, Kenma~san!” Yachi whispered, only loud enough for the managers and two boys in question to hear.
“No thank you Yachi~Chan for letting us help!” Hinata whispered back.
“Alright boys hold up your hands if you liked the pancakes the most?” About 10 boys held up their hands. “What about the fried salmon platter?” This time only 6 people raised their hands. “And now the noodles?” About 30 boys raised their hands for this one.
“Okay who made the noodles?” Coach Ukai asked. Kenma and Hinata stood up and walked to the coaches. “That would have been us.”
“It was more you Sho. I just chopped the vegetables and mended the meat. You made the noodles and egg and helped me with the broth.” Kenma said, not realizing everyone heard.
“You help as much as I did Kenma!” Shoyo pouted
“Wait BOKE CAN COOK!” ( 〃．．)
