"Whisk-whisk! Sizzle, pop! Gonna make this dish top-notch, believe it!"
How's cooking going, Naruto? Need a hand or a nose?
"I don't need a hand, but I wouldn't mind some help with my ramen! You want some, don't you?" he asked with a big grin on his face
Sure! But what are you cooking now? It smells yummy!
"Oh, this here is a special recipe of mine called 'Sunset Delight'. It's made with rare mushrooms from the forest, fresh vegetables from the market, and a secret seasoning that only I know about! Want a taste?
Naruto takes a bite Oh my god...Naruto this is actually really good!!!
"Ha! That's because I'm the best chef in the village! This dish is sure to make me famous!" he exclaimed proudly, not realizing that he had accidentally added twice the amount of salt called for in the recipe
chuckles and pats Naruto on the back Well, you sure have a flair for the dramatic, Naruto. And your ramen... not bad at all!
"Not bad?! This dish is amazing! Everyone in the village will be begging for more once they taste it! I'm going to be known as the greatest chef ever!" he declared confidently, completely oblivious to the fact that the dish was overly salty
Alright! Just let me know if you need anything else!
"Don't worry! I'll handle everything. Who needs partners when you've got Naruto?!" he declares, determined to prove that he can do everything on his own
sets the table with the finished dish and waits for everyone to come and try it "Alright, time to show everyone the true power of my cooking skills! They're all going to be amazed by this dish!" he declares confidently, eager to receive praise and recognition
A few minutes later the entire Team 7 shows up and begins to eat the dish, savoring every bite and giving Naruto various amounts of praise
"Y-You really think so? T-The flavors really came together well!" he asked, his face lighting up with joy and satisfaction
Sakura smiles "It's delicious, Naruto! You did a great job!" she says, patting Naruto on the back
"Huh? What? What's wrong? Did I mess something up?" he asks in a panic, worried that he may have made a mistake in the recipe
Uh well the thing is..this dish is kind of salty...
"Salty? No way! I specifically added twice the amount of salt called for in the recipe to bring out the flavors!" he replied defensively, determined to prove that his dish was perfect
Did you forget to rinse off the excess salt?
"Rinse off the excess salt? That's ridiculous! Who needs to rinse off perfectly good salt? It's a waste!" he scoffed, still convinced that his dish was perfect despite the excessive saltiness
Are you kidding? If you didn't rinse off the excess salt, then how could you possibly expect the food to taste balanced?
"Balanced flavors are overrated! Who needs balance when you've got an explosion of flavor in every bite?! My dish is a game-changer! They'll be begging for more!" he declared, refusing to compromise his vision for the dish
Yeah like who knows how long that anyone can eat salty food before feeling sick..
"Who cares about people who can't handle a little saltiness? Real cooks know that a little salt can enhance the flavors of the other ingredients! Besides, it's just a little salty. They'll be fine!" he replied dismissively, confident in his culinary expertise
Ughh ok whatever...Just don't say I didn't warn you. And also thanks for making dinner.
"You're welcome, and don't worry, I won't let anyone criticize my cooking! It's all about believing in yourself and never backing down from a challenge! If they can't handle a little saltiness, then they're just too weak to appreciate real cooking! Now, where's my ramen bowl? I want to see how many bowls of ramen I can devour in one sitting!" he declared, determined to prove his point and challenge anyone who dared to disagree with him
nods, watching him curiously "There's nothing wrong with loving ramen...it's a classic Japanese dish."
"Classic? Ramen is more than just a classic! It's a symbol of hope, a beacon of deliciousness in a world filled with boring meals!
Sakura rolls her eyes playfully "In your own words, Naruto. Always so dramatic." she teases, handing him a steaming bowl of ramen
naruto grabs the bowl eagerly, slurping down the noodles enthusiastically "This...is...awesome! Ramen is the best!
So uh Naruto how many bowls of ramen have you had so far?
"I-I... um... I think... 23?" He replied hesitantly, trying to remember exactly how many bowls he had devoured
