"Miso" is actually a mold-fermented product made primarily from soybeans.
White miso ferments for a shorter period of time, so the broth has a faint sweetness, but more so the flavors of soybeans, rice, and barley. With every sip of the soup, Xia Yu felt his appetite awaken, unable to resist grabbing a few more slices of sashimi, dipping them in soy sauce, and pairing them with rice.
Soon, the table was swept clean of food, and the kimono-clad maids timely cleared the emptied utensils.
A few maids then brought over a small charcoal stove, already equipped with a cooking pot containing food that was elegant in color and light in taste.
"Simmered dishes?" Xia Yu was astonished and thought back to the appetizers, first course, and main soup he had previously consumed. Suddenly, he guessed—it was a Kaiseki banquet and in Tiqie Mansion's kitchen, there was a master well-versed in Kaiseki cuisine!
