Scans from my book collection
You seem like you’re having so much fun. Even though you cook the makanai for the girls every single day. Don’t you get tired? No, I don’t, actually. While collecting ingredients, I decide whether to make it a bit lighter or a bit heavier, depending on how the girls feel. Oh? Mmm. Also, even if I return to a store to get unagi or vegetables, it can change depending on the season, completely changing the taste of it. And so, even if I use the usual amount of seasoning, it’ll, uh, still taste different than what we might expect. Oh? Yeah. So that’s… why I say to the food, “Hello there, and thanks.” “It’s nice to see you again.” — The Makanai: Cooking for the Maiko House (2023) dir. Hirokazu Kore-eda
