Just something simple. I know that I need to eat to keep up my strength, but... I do not have the energy for a recipe that will take a long time to finish.
[ if it wasn't 3am I would be making munchies because of this thread. ]
There should be plenty of simple toppings to go with it. Do you have any preferences..?
[ he'll be shoving his nose into the other shelves to look for anything useful now. I'm declaring now there's probably instant chazuke tucked away somewhere and he'll pull that out too...! ]
Ah! This is always a favorite among the citadel.
[ even if they're all spoiled and get the freshly made stuff instead. but sometimes you've just gotta use what's available. ]
[she's about to say that she likes fish - but fish would be complicated to skin and debone. when he comes up with the instant chazuke, she leans over to get a look at the packet.]
[ if only there was canned salmon or tuna in these pantries too, huh. anyways, he flashes the package at her, despite it being written entirely in Japanese ]
It's instant chazuke. A soup base you mix with cooked rice for a quick warm meal.
[ a dish simple enough even he can make it.....! ]
[ he nods enthusiastically enough to make up for it ]
The others at home had introduced me to it. It's can be quite more complex depending on the person making it but the instant version only requires rice and boiling water.
[ so easy even a baby cook can make it! ]
I tend to prefer mine with a fried egg on top and perhaps whatever fish has been leftover but it's also quite delicious on its own.
[ we're gonna say he was a smart bean who put water up once the rice started bubbling so they don't actually have to wait long. which means it's tonbo's turn to putter around the kitchen, setting up a bowl for her and frying a perfectly runny egg to top it off with. mmmm nom.
