I guess anime adaptation will be good.

Eh? What that last line supposed to mean???

I had beef tongue while young (premade stuff), was good, but the texture can be a bit iffy.

The only thing "tongue" recipe related I remember running into was from the Pikmin games where a character named Louie was making up recipes of how to cook the wild life of an alien planet. LMAO

guess it's good to not waste parts of the animal but i wonder how many ppl considered the tongue at first. although i think more ppl might consider that versus the liver /kidneys or so

liver is eaten by plenty of people, you might recognize it as "foie gras" or "paté" tho.
Heck, "paté" are mostly made out of offal meats.

Nothing can go wrong with tongue, old and young tongues are soft. You cannot eat old beef hamstring for example, or old ox tripes, too tough.

Hey new volume cover, nice. Been seeing that girl eat the skewers for forever, lol.

You mean the "we can live together"? Yeah, I'm a bit confused by that

 

[Exkalamity]

That last line. Did the dude just put a move on someone's fiancé?

My guess, sometimes Japanese left subject out so it’s up to the translator to interpret. Maybe it’s ”Living together“ implying Hinata and Shotaro.

I thought about it after, seeing Hinata's reaction to the words, and it made me think that he's saying something like "you can keep living together, like you are, and nothing will change, you will just work as master and servant" I guess implying that they don't seem to be progressing as a couple, just coworkers.

Coincidentally, I had just made pork tongue braised (more like pressure cooked) in Chinese master sauce yesterday.

Tongue is delicious, but pricey; where I'm at, it's now more expensive than pork shoulder.

Tongue is my favorite cut of the cow tbh. Not as odd as it sounds to those unfamiliar with it.

Never seen a skewer so long and brown and a girl trying to swallow it...

 

[Mitsu13]

Does tongue taste similar to innards?

A lot of Japanese sentences don't include the pronouns for the subject/object if the context is clear.
When Google Translate sees a Japanese sentence without a pronoun, it will try to guess. Google probably guessed "(We) can live together."
Before that sentence, they were talking about Shotaro being a good chef, and Hinata supporting him. So the correct translation is probably "(You and Shotaro) can live together."

 

[HaikenEdge]

Not really. Organ meat tends to have a bit of a "bloody" taste, which you don't really get from tongue.

Great chapter!

I enjoy this more than Nobu, tbh.

I like Nobu, for sure, but I have the feeling that the cast of Nobu belongs in the world of Food Wars, than its own.

To me, Gen feels like Nobu done right.
