Sandrine's remark that she couldn't use a large amount of tomato sauce was not funny, if you think about it.
　In the first place, it's meaningless to make a lot of ingredients rot.
　There's some leeway, but it's only to some extent.
　With that in mind, I couldn't disagree with Sandrine's words.

"What? Just a little Sandrine? If possible, how about a little?"

　Ray agreed with Sandrine's words, but for some reason he wanted to use the tomato sauce in a hurry.
　For Rodrigo, cooking is both a job and a hobby.
　Despite Ray's willingness to talk about Rodrigo being able to try a new dish, Sandrine's voice is that of waiting.
　She was usually shy, but when she desperately begged her daughter to do something about it, she wondered why Rodrigo, not herself...

"Dad? Then I'll ask... can I stop serving anything else that uses tomato sauce to serve that pizza?"
"That's..."

　That would force Rodrigo to muddle his words.
　I'm interested in new dishes, but that doesn't mean I can use as much tomato sauce as I want.

"Well, then, can't you ask me to sell you some surplus of shops or people?"
"Well, preserved food... I'm sure some people have it as a preservative seasoning, but... it's hard if they ask me if I can give it to them."

　a sighing Sandrine

"In the first place, the magic grass used in tomato sauce is expensive... but it's not cheap at all." If that were the case, I don't think they would give it away for free."
"…I see. So what shall we do about the pizza until next year?"

　With tomato sauce unavailable, Ray can't make a full-fledged pizza either.
　Still, pizza without tomato sauce could be made, but... it's just like eating it yourself, not something you can serve in a dining room.

"No, I don't think it's possible to put it on the menu right now, but I think it's a good idea to study it now for next year. Mr. Ray, I have some room for tomato sauce, so may I have it?"
"Oh, my... Dad,"

　Sandrine was unhappy with Rodrigo's words, but her mouth was still slightly arched.
　For Sandrine, this part of her father is probably not unpleasant to look at.

"Do you mind? It's just a little. If you don't have tomato sauce when you cook because you use too much, you never forgive me."
"Yes, I see," Then shall we go to the kitchen at once?"

　Rodrigo decides and invites Ray to the kitchen.
　Ray and Rodrigo head to the kitchen with no particular objection to making pizza.
　Sandrine followed them to the kitchen.
　I wonder how much tomato sauce will be used.
　The kitchen contains cooking utensils after making meat buns.
　It had nothing to do with the meat buns, but the baking kiln was well heated, perhaps for dinner.

"Ray, does pizza spread the dough round?"
"Oh, I heard there's a way to make the dough round by spinning it in the air... well, that's only after you get used to it."
"Well... do you have to do such a thing.
"What do you think?" But I don't think it's meaningless because some people will want to eat pizza if it gets attention."

　Ray knew what pizza was like and how to make it, but when asked how to stretch the dough, he had to tilt his head.
　Generally speaking, I would stretch it out with something like a noodle bar, but I've seen it on TV many times as it spins in the air.

"Well, I have to stretch the pizza dough, right? How thick should I make it?"
"I think the hard type is quite thin, and the soft type is rather thick."
"Then the thinner one, the faster it gets cooked."
"...maybe. But at first it's better to be thicker than normal dough, isn't it?"

　As Ray asks, Rodrigo nods.

"Considering the relationship between tomato sauce, I think it's better to make it from the one that's certain."

　Ray has no choice but to nod to the words.
　They want to avoid the possibility of failure as long as possible, since there are not many tomato sauces available.

(Tomato sauce... Is pizza man in tomato sauce? It's pizza man, and it's probably in it, right? Tomato sauce... ketchup? Well, I guess I have to leave it to a professional.)

　Ray searches for ingredients, thinking about it when he sees a steamer in a meat bun.

"First of all, if you're going to make a basic pizza... prepare some extra ingredients that you can use right now. Oh, I'd rather have ham or sausage if I could have meat."
"There are both, but which one do you want?"

　Both ham and sausage are preserved foods.
　Naturally, we have some ingredients available until spring, and if you don't have one of these, you can buy them.

"Oh, yes," Then, with sausages."
"All right. Vegetables -- not very much, to be honest."

　Rodrigo bowed apologetically.
　But Ray doesn't blame Rodrigo because it's winter, and he's making a prototype pizza on the condition that there's not enough vegetables left to serve.

"No, I'll just let you out. "Oh, but I wish there were mushrooms."

　Such Rey's words make Rodrigo feel relieved and collect useful vegetables.
　Green, blue, and purple leaf vegetables and vegetables that Ray has never seen, such as white root vegetables, can be collected for some reason, such as those that look fresh in winter.

"As I said earlier, pizza is a simple dish that is round, with ingredients sprinkled on top of thin dough and baked in a kiln. It's easy to say."

　It is not immediately possible to adjust the thickness of the dough, select and balance ingredients, and, above all, control the temperature of the kiln.
　Fortunately, however, home-made bread was a selling point in this golden pavilion, as the name suggests.
　The bread is also Rodrigo's own baking, and in that sense it's more advantageous than any other restaurant that buys bread from a bakery.
　Ray thinks that he can bake pizza simply because he has a kiln, but the normal temperature for baking bread is over 400 degrees Celsius, while the temperature for baking bread is about 250 degrees Celsius.
　The temperature difference is nearly double.

"Well, let's try it out first. Mr. Ray, what kind of ingredients do you have for basic pizza?"
"Put tomato sauce on the dough and then put the ingredients on. The main ingredients are sausages, and if you put mushrooms and vegetables on top of them and put cheese on them, they will be ready."

　Originally, we wanted to use mushrooms, but unfortunately there is no mushroom among the ingredients we can use.
　No, Ray didn't know if Elgin had a mushroom.

(Oh, but have you eaten mushrooms for some kind of dish before?)

　While Ray tries to remember where he ate the mushroom, Rodrigo rushes through his cooking.
　Spread the dough round -- it wasn't rolled in the air -- and when it's a little larger than your hands, spread it in tomato sauce and put the ingredients on.
　Sausage, green peppers, mushrooms, bright blue onion-like vegetables...
　This time it's just a sample, and we don't use so much ingredients.
　Finally, sprinkle the cheese over the top and pour it into the kiln.

"How was it? Did you have any questions?""You may say so," All I know is outline, and I've never actually made pizza before, so I can't say for sure... Well, I think the performance was quick because I was running a restaurant."
"Ah. Thank you very much. I hope the rest will be cooked well."

　Rodrigo was a weak-tempered man, but his job... or, if it were to be a hobby, he would be more enthusiastic than usual.
　He looked into the kiln without showing any of his usual weaknesses.
　I can't hide my smile from my father's appearance, even though he looks like he can'

(What's a father-in-law?)

　A minute or two passes while you think like that... just watch the cheese on top melt, and Rodrigo thrusts a huge spatula into the kiln to get the pizza out of the kiln.
　But the moment Rodrigo tried to take out the pizza, he looked suspicious.

"This is..."
"What's the matter, Dad?"
"...no, I can't eat this at this rate." The cheese is melted, but the dough is not completely baked."

　As you say, the pizza dough still looked half... maybe even more raw.

"You mean the baking time was too short.

　When the dough is half raw, it naturally takes a short time to bake.
　When Ray asks with such doubts, Rodrigo nods back with a complex expression.

"Yes, sir," Considering the dough itself, I think the baking time was short. But if you bake it for a long time, the ingredients and cheese will burn..."

　Sandrine encourages Rodrigo on the shoulder with a difficult look on his face.

"It's my first time cooking, so it's no use making mistakes. Your father can do it."
"Is that so?"
"Yes, it's better to think about how to make delicious pizza than that, isn't it?"

　Rodrigo asks Ray, looking at the half-baked pizza, whether Sandrine's words have brought him back some energy.

"What do you think we should do, Ray?"
"No, as I said before, I know cooking, and I know most of the cooking, but I'm not an expert. ...just so. Simply put, isn't it because the dough was thick?"
"Now that you mention it, you said you have thin pizza, too?"

　Ray nods back to Rodrigo, recalling his pre-cooking explanation.

"Oh... I just don't know how to make pizza with thicker dough..."
"That's probably the temperature of the kiln." If you grill it for a long time in the middle, it will burn, so I think it will probably be done at a higher temperature."

　Regardless of his frail nature, Rodrigo readily answers Ray's questions, as he manages a restaurant on the main street called the Golden Pantei.
　I think Rodrigo was able to come to a quick conclusion because he was baking bread on a regular basis and had as much skill as the bakeries around him.

"At high temperatures? ... oh, I think it said something like that."

　Rodrigo's idea reminds Ray of what he saw on TV.
　The person who was making the pizza at that time also said that the firepower of the pizza was the best...

"Oh! Ray, if you knew it, you could tell me from the beginning!"
"No, I've forgotten that,"

　That's what Ray pleads against Sandrine, who puffs up her cheeks.

"Hahaha. Even Mr. Ray doesn't remember everything, so don't be so angry, Sandrine. I think this is pretty good for us, because we used to only use a kiln to bake bread, but now we can use pizza."
"...you basically make bread before the shop opens, so when you open the shop, you make pizza in the kiln?I understand what you think, but then it'll cost more than ever before."
"That may be the case, but we can buy firewood from somewhere else, can't we? If we make money from pizza or meat buns, that's nothing."
"No, that might be the case, but..."

　Sandrine had many things to say to her father, but she didn't say anything more than that.
　In the end, we couldn't make much of a prototype on this day because of the tomato sauce. I'm going to break up after hearing only the outline of the pizza.
　First, Rodrigo apparently put top priority on studying the relationship between pizza dough and firepower.
