Master Chef – Malleus Version ～Let's Make Soufflé Omelette 1～
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Today's assignment is a Soufflé Omelette! Do you know what kind of dish that is, Malleus-kun?
Malleus Malleus	I do. It is an omelette that is visually similar to that of a pancake. I have eaten it before, back in Briar Valley. It had an intriguing consistency that seemed to melt in my mouth.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	If you've had them before, then that makes this easier. You can make a soufflé omelette by whisking eggs into a fine foam.
Malleus Malleus	That is the secret? You mean to tell me the way eggs are mixed have something to do with that distinctive consistency?
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Exactly so! The other thing to remember is to fold the eggs in two when cooking them, instead of rolling them up.
Malleus Malleus	So, the shape is made during the cooking process. I understand, I believe I have a general sense of the dish thanks to your explanation.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Wonderful. Then, let's start cooking!
Malleus Malleus	Yes, indeed.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	(Whew… I feel a bit nervous teaching Malleus-kun.) (It doesn't seem like he wants the course credit, nor, frankly, the ability to cook.) (I heard he decided to try this class out after hearing about it from other Diasomnia students, but… I wonder what specifically drew him in?) Okay, let's try cracking open some eggs first! You'll want to hit it onto a flat surface to crack the shell first, then split it open.
Malleus Malleus	I simply need to hit it onto a flat surface…
[splat!]
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Oopsie daisy, the egg got smashed. You need to use only a smidge of your strength, just enough to put a small crack in the shell.
Malleus Malleus	I was holding my strength back already… It seems this requires much more finesse and control than I thought.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Alright, let's try one more time. Don't worry, once you get the hang of it, it'll be easy enough.
Malleus Malleus	…Chef. Why should we bother to start over once more? I can simply remove the broken shells with magic and continue with the lesson.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	No, no. Magic is not allowed in this Master Chef course. That's the rule, so we can't make any exceptions. Also, the yolk and egg whites sometimes need to be used separately in dishes. That's why it's important to break them cleanly.
Malleus Malleus	If it is as you say, then I suppose I cannot argue. I will attempt it once more. I need to be aware of how much force I am using to only make a slight crack in the shell…
[tap, tap] [crack!]
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Woah! Nice! You did great!
Malleus Malleus	This was rather difficult. …It may have been easier if you were to have told me to break a boulder instead of this egg.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Ahaha, you're really good at cracking jokes, Malleus-kun～! Alright, once you finish breaking all the eggs, we'll move on to the whisking part!
Malleus Malleus	…So, we will be cooking this dish without separating the yolks and egg whites?
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Yes, for this dish. I'm sure there'll be times when you'll have to learn the technique to crack the eggs cleanly to separate them. This isn't related to this class at all, but what if you were to make fried eggs for breakfast sometime?
Malleus Malleus	If I were to prepare my own breakfast? …Heh, that would be quite amusing. I do hope that opportunity arises someday.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	(Eeeeh～～!? Then why're you taking this Master Chef class!?)
Malleus Malleus	I have finished cracking open the remainder of the eggs. Now, how do we whisk them?
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Ah… Right. This time, we'll use this whisk. It's pretty strenuous, do you think you'd be up to the task?
Malleus Malleus	No problem at all.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	That's good, then. Now, tilt the bowl slightly in one hand, while stirring as hard as you can with the other. Keep going until it turns white.
Malleus Malleus	I simply need to stir as hard as I can… I understand, now, allow me.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	And hey, it's hard to whisk by hand. So, if your arm gets tired…
Malleus Malleus	Your worry is unnecessary. Sit there and watch.
[whisking noises] [loud, fast, mixing noises!!!]
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	EH… EEEEEEEEHHHHHHH!?!?

Master Chef – Malleus Version ～Let's Make Soufflé Omelette 2～
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	And hey, it's hard to whisk by hand. So, if your arm gets tired…
Malleus Malleus	Your worry is unnecessary. Sit there and watch.
[whisking noises] [loud, fast, mixing noises!!!]
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	EH… EEEEEEEEHHHHHHH!?!? What sheer power… The eggs were all whisked in an instant…!
Malleus Malleus	For someone like me, this is no trouble at all.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	B-But, Malleus-kun. At this rate… you'll have whisked it too much.
Malleus Malleus	What?
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	When you lift the whisk up, the egg doesn't fall at all, right? Optimally, it should slowly droop off of the whisk. If you stir too much, then the consistency'll be bad.
Malleus Malleus	I see… So whisking thoroughly is not necessarily a boon.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Yep. So maybe we should try a hand mixer this time. Let's try it this way.
Malleus Malleus	A hand mixer? I can't say I'm familiar with that term.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	It's an automatic mixing tool. This might be easier for you to adjust your whisking strength to, instead of mixing by hand.
Malleus Malleus	Interesting, so a machine can be utilized to avoid excessive whisking. How convenient.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Uh… Usually it's the other way around, but… Once all the eggs have been broken again, lay a cloth on the counter and place the bowl on top of it. Then we'll use the beater―That's the whisk-looking piece―to stir it up.
Malleus Malleus	These buttons operate the machine, I see. Should I start with the slower speed first?
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	That's correct! If you gradually increase the speed little by little, you'll get a better result, and you'll be able to keep the eggs from splashing everywhere.
[whirrrrrrrrrrrr!]
Malleus Malleus	…
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Yeah, just like that!
Malleus Malleus	The whole mixture is starting to turn white. …Chef, does this seem to be enough? If you could confirm, that would be appreciated.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Let me see… This looks pretty good, but it's still not completely blended. You should keep going a little bit more.
Malleus Malleus	Understood.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	(…And there he goes just following the instructions without a fuss. I can't tell what he's feeling at all!) (Other students will get excited at their successes, frustrated with their failures, or react in some way or another…) (Well, since he's following the recipe properly and using the right ingredients, I can't say I have an issue with it, though.)
Malleus Malleus	I do believe I was able to create a finer foam in this attempt, what are your thoughts?
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	It's perfect, well done! So next, it's time to cook it in the heated pan!
Malleus Malleus	You stated earlier that the secret to the soufflé omelette's consistency was this foam. Thus, I presume it would be ideal to pour this batter into the pan with great care, so as to not dampen the volume of the froth.
Chef Ghost Chef Ghost	Yeah, that's about right! One you pour it in, cover the pan with a lid, and let it simmer over low heat. Pay attention to how the edges of the batter changes color. Once it starts to get a nice brown color, fold it in half, and you're done!
Malleus Malleus	Oh, are we finished already? The result seems better than I assumed it would be… I am curious how the judge will score this.
Cafeteria - Judging Venue
Deuce Deuce	I'm starving…! I can't wait for the soufflé omelette. I wonder who's making it?
Malleus Malleus	Oho, so my judge is Spade.
Deuce Deuce	Eh, Draconia-senpai!?!? You were taking this class!?
Malleus Malleus	Indeed. This was my first attempt at cooking. No need to fret. You may assess my dish with candor.
Deuce Deuce	Th-This is Draconia-senpai's hand-made cooking…! (I really can't imagine him cooking… It looks alright, but I wonder if the taste's gonna be okay…?)
Malleus Malleus	What ails you, Spade? You should make quick work of it. It will start to deflate after some time.
Deuce Deuce	Right!! Then, I'll dig right in!! (I feel like I'm gonna be too nervous to taste any flavors when he's standing there watching me eat… But here I go!)
[bite] [chew, chew] …
Malleus Malleus	…
Deuce Deuce	Oh, it's good. As soon as I took a bite, it felt like it'd melt away almost instantly.
[bite, chew, chew] [bite, chew, chew]
Malleus Malleus	Good, good, what an appetite. You should eat as much as you like. Based on his reaction, it does not seem as though Spade was lying when he said it was delicious. Hm… This has become even more of a conundrum… I joined this course with absolutely no knowledge of cooking, yet the Chef's explanations were able to help me understand most of my queries. I may have had minor missteps during the whole process, however thanks to the Chef's advice, those were quickly mitigated. And yet… Even though Lilia cooks frequently, how is it that he constantly produces dishes that cannot possibly be considered edible? I understand now the process required for cooking... Though I do not believe that will enlighten this other mystery any.
