Original subtitles

In the feudal period, the leaders of the Government and the great lords had cooks.

They were members of the samurai warrior class of "bushi".

Replacing swords with kitchen knives, these men served their masters.

They were affectionately nicknamed "Samurai Kitchen".

THE RESIDENCE OF THE DOMAIN OF EDO KAGA

THE HALL OF DAMA TEI CONCUBINE OF HIS SIGNORIA.

My Lady?

Rice pudding with ginger.

It is yummy.

Warms the body. It is good for colds.

Who taught you all these things?

I learned from my late mother.

Haru, just got a bit 'too.

The things I cook are always delicious.

A TALE OF KITCHEN SAMURAI - A TRUE STORY OF LOVE -

15 YEARS LATER

MAEDA YOSHINORI, SESTO SIGNORE DI KAGA

Haru, eat something.

You see? I'm sure you'll love these things.

Can I?

In this case?

Haru!

Refrain please!

This is why your husband wanted a divorce.

Hamaji, così enough.

Haru has already heard enough.

My Signora, voi the viziate.

He is married to an affiliate of the Lord of Kaga

and returned after less than a year!

It is a shame for all of us.

Really very nice!

Excellent interpretation Otsuki, you have improved a lot.

A pale imitation of the original, My Lord.

It was a good idea so commemorate my deceased father.

A boat trip would have been too expensive.

This year I had no other choice.

Yes, My Lord.

We have one last game for you.

Oh, what is it?

Master Funaki, come on.

Funaki Dennai, from the kitchen of his lordship.

Soup?

Let's see.

Exquisite!

The flesh of cranes?

It is a "fake crane." He prepared the master Funaki.

"Fake crane", you say?

Listen up everyone!

This is a "fake crane" prepared by the samurai by the Kaga cuisine.

As the name suggests, it is not the meat of the crane, but it has the flavor.

A prize to anyone who will be able to guess what it is!

So what? I have not been realized?

It could be pheasant?

Io credo sia tofu.

I think it's venison.

So what?

Dried fish seasoned with tamari soy sauce.

Oh, Tei, you guessed it?

It was not me.

It was Haru, my home.

What? Your home?

That's interesting. Let's talk.

It is a yellow fin tuna dried,

cut into slices and boiled in sake.

The broth is made with seaweed and sweet sake.

The dressing is a light soy sauce coming from the vicinity of Tatsuno.

So?

Master Funaki, you say?

Oh, scusatemi!

It's like telling your home.

You look shocked.

Anyway, I'm really impressed!

He took to the nose by the samurai of Kaga cuisine!

A marriage proposal? For me?

This morning the teacher Funaki came to ask for your hand.

Funaki?

The cook of the "fake crane." You should remember his name.

Longs to marry his son.

But you can not!

Of course it is.

Its not a rich family,

but they are an illustrious lineage of cooks employed by the lords of Kaga.

As head of the family,

this man is one of the best chefs in the country.

You could not hope for a better home.

But I'm already married.

Of course we told him that you have sent it back.

So what?

He said he would take care of him to force his son.

You know recognize the flavors and he wants a wife who knows how to cook.

The service at the residence of Kaga. It's called Yasunobu.

This year celebrates 23 years.

23?

He has four years younger than me!

Please, tell him about a polite "no".

Haru, I think it would be better if you got married and had children.

The last time you said also.

My Lady, I would be happy to spend your life at your service.

Please, allow me to do so.

Signorina Haru

With Funaki.

I apologize for the intrusion.

What can I do for you?

I'm embarrassed a little 'ask you, but would you explain to me what?

- I? - Yes.

This morning at the market I found a strange vegetable.

I've never seen anything like it in Kaga.

Trasuda one appiccicoso liquid.

It's sticky like spinach kinjiso, but the smell of parsley.

I thought maybe you could know what it is.

This is ashitaba, a type of parsley.

Ashitaba?

It is harvested in the evening and during the night produces new leaves.

And how is it used?

It comes from Hachijo-jima, so here you do not see often.

I've hardly ever used.

I pray. Be careful, hot.

The scent I would never say

it was that kind of green leaf vegetable.

Not only do you have excellent taste buds,

you are also good at cooking.

I was not wrong in wanting as a wife for my son.

Here, master Funaki?

You need not worry.

The lady told me Tei

you have firmly declined my offer.

But it is a pity.

Where did you learn to cook?

My parents owned a restaurant called "Hirazen." I cook forever.

Oh, Asakusa ad?

But it went up in flames?

Yes.

To the ground.

I was completely alone in the world.

I was 12 years old. So I went to the service here.

Che tragedia!

It must have been very hard for you.

Two years ago I lost my firstborn.

A great cook and a very diligent young.

He died during an epidemic.

My God?

So now your son?

Ah, right? is Yasunobu, my second son.

Oh, I see? I'm really sorry.

Exquisite!

I can not give up.

Signorina Haru??

Yes it is?

I beg you to reconsider.

I want you to go to be part of the family as my daughter in law.

Vi prego!

I'm already married, but the family I was sent back.

They said I was naughty and not at all friendly or submissive.

I would still be less suitable for a family of samurai.

I do not care who you are impertinent.

Or that you are not polite or submissive.

A Yasunobu need a wife who has spirit and willpower.

You prego ...

It is replaced in the kitchen instead of his brother,

but his heart remains tied to the sword.

Never acquire the skills necessary to perform its duties.

She will never listen to his mother.

I am here to Edo for many years, so there's not much I can do.

Please ... do quell'incompetente of a samurai from the kitchen.

One worthy of its name.

I would not be able ever.

I know it will be difficult.

Please, Yasunobu saved ... No, save the family Funaki!

You imploro!

No, with Funaki, you prego!

Signorina Haru ...

You imploro!

TOKYO, Dominion DI Kagawa

Let's take a break.

Sadanoshin ...

Yasunobu, when it comes to your wedding?

Today, or so I'm told.

Then you should go home.

Why is that? So there's my mother to accept them.

There seems to be a bit 'cruel?

They are 300 miles from Edo to here.

For a woman to have at least 15 days' journey.

I did not ask him to come.

You have made a long journey. Tonight there will be a brief ceremony.

Cool off in the bathroom before Yasunobu come home.

Thank you.

You do not belong to our own class and this is your second marriage.

But I'm not going to take this into account.

Perhaps Edo people prefer the raw sardines on the season.

Others prefer them after they are back to swim near the shore.

You have a very important task to carry out for this family.

Yes, your husband ...

No, in fact, my father told me.

I want a grandchild healthy as soon as possible.

Va bene?

Kiku?

The bath is ready?

Kiku?

Sorry ...

Yasunobu ...

Wait. I'm almost done.

Natsu ...

My name is Haru.

(* Haru means "spring", while Natsu is the summer.)

Haru.

I am sure that you will be tired. Relax as well.

On the occasion of my arrival ...

Forget all that formal stuff.

They told me that you're a great cook.

No, I'm not so good.

Well, you'll have even impressed my father ...

But my brother is dead

and I am forced to follow my father in the kitchen.

It is the tradition of the family Funaki.

And now my father decided for me.

Since my brother died, my mother just want a grandchild.

It will be hard for you to find yourself in a new place, but it is' your best.

My Lady!

I'll take care of the kitchen.

No, I came here for.

But ..

This wasabi is beautiful.

I can not leave it to do ...

This is salt?

Well ... yes.

My Lady, let me handle this.

Do not worry.

Kiku ...

Peel these beans please.

Yasunobu, then? How is your wife?

It is the residence of Edo, right?

It must be different from the girls in the tea house here.

Women are like potatoes.

What does this mean?

No matter where they are grown, if the peel are all the same.

Yasunobu!

Do you think the way you peel potatoes?

I am sorry.

This still has the peel!

What if you end up in the stew of the guardian of the castle?

Excuse me, I ran away.

Did you run away?

Learn how to do your job!

Ago 'attention!

PA Haru.

Pure entered.

Lei o'clock the FDA.

She is the wife of Imai Sadanoshin, the fencing master.

I am Haru. Nice to meet you too.

It's my pleasure.

He brought a wedding gift.

A silver incense burner!

Haru, thank her, too.

Thank you so much.

I wish you much happiness.

Please, go and see me some time.

Thank you.

Sure it's funny to see how things will settle down.

I never thought that Yasunobu

would have received a wedding gift from you, Sayo.

Oh, the incense burner ...

It's perfect for this niche.

It seems almost did it on purpose!

Yes.

What do you think?

Here you are.

Exquisite!

The fish is very tasty and the vegetables are perfect.

Vero, Yasunobu?

It is the flavor of Edo. A little 'salty.

You say?

What's this?

I crushed the beans, and I steamed the fish paste.

That's interesting.

Yasunobu, taste it.

We have not yet set the menu for the next family feast.

We should try this, what do you think?

The feast of the family? What's this?

The family Funaki organizes them regularly.

We host our relatives and they taste our cuisine.

They are all experienced, we learn so much from them.

They complain about everything that we prepare for them.

Yasunobu!

At the next feast you absolutely need to get their approval.

You are the heir to the name of Funaki!

Lo so.

Tami, when hot, add the rest of the sake.

Yes.

Is everything to your liking?

Yasunobu!

What's wrong with this fish? It's too watery.

Do not goes well with sake.

The layer of tofu is too thin.

It does not feel the taste of pepper.

Look here!

The starch fern does not stick and drips from the sweet potato.

It is not a good year for sweet potatoes.

No excuses!

It's for you to say it.

We still have the second and the third flow.

You'll see what we can do. I'm sure you will enjoy them.

Let's hurry.

Yes.

- Tami ... - Sì?

Flakes of dried Sardinian.

- How? - Soon.

Right away.

He will never take the place of his father.

Not be able to find a job even in a tavern.

You can not make a man a cook in a single night.

I pray.

I pray.

Exquisite!

Both the scent and flavor. This soup is perfect!

A really fine broth.

The Sardinian attenuates the smell of the sea cucumber.

Brings out the scent of the sea.

Yasunobu!

This is a dish that would look at home in front of his lordship.

Thank you.

Thanks to all for your efforts.

Haru, you've worked hard.

Leave well alone the cleaning and goes' to rest.

Thank you.

- You can occupartene you please? - Yes.

Haru.

Who told you to redo my soup?

The smell of the sea cucumber seemed too strong.

They are perfectly able to understand when something smells like fish too!

I just added bonito flakes.

I do not need your help.

I am sorry.

Witch!

I am sorry.

I can not believe that my own wife interfere with my work!

Even if it is just a job suitable for women and children.

"Samurai Kitchen"! What a joke!

What is that face?

I should warn you before you place the soup.

But do not I'll be sitting here while you denigrate your duties.

What did you say?

Do you think your duty is just a game and this shines through from your dishes.

E tu cosa ne sai?

Do not talk so big for a bowl of soup!

Would you like a challenge this arrogant witch?

What?

A challenge.

Given that it is only women's work, you should not work hard to win.

Of course.

Let's make a bet.

If I win, you take cooking lessons from the witch.

What a cheeky!

Okay! If I win, I want a divorce.

Then you need to go!

Va bene.

Proceed as well.

I pray.

Compare them.

Come...?

Cut the fish too slowly.

The flesh flakes and is consuming too much soy.

So the flavor of the fish is lost.

I won a samurai and always keeps his word.

Do not you just sparpagliarlo.

When you wash the rice, you have to listen to the sound it makes.

My Lady, how are you?

It's already been two months since my arrival in Kanazawa.

His father says that my husband is an incompetent,

but in reality it is a better cook than I thought.

Learns quickly. Like father, like son, I suppose.

Wait.

He calls me "witch"

ma does not matter to me.

I am putting across to turn it into a true samurai kitchen.

A clip?

Please take care of yourself.

I hope that one day we will meet again.

Haru.

Mobility?

Tei Dama ...

Otsuki?

Forgive me. I have come here at night to see you again.

You do not have!

I was ordered to return to Kaga.

Please, let me see you one last time!

Tei Dama!

From head to feet, there is a part of the chicken that you can not use.

That hen does not lay more eggs, so that we may eat.

Haru ...

Yes it is?

Kill you.

Then I'll think about it.

Non hai mai ...?

Of course you do.

But I do not like it.

I can not believe.

This is also part of the kitchen.

Here you are.

Prendila!

Wait! Where are you going?

Yasunobu!

This is Otsuki Denzo.

Master, this is Funaki Yasunobu.

A childhood friend of my dojo.

A great swordsman.

Then we should see him fight.

Now I can not stop, but I hope I get the chance.

Have a nice day.

How do you know a great man like that?

It is here in secret.

The old guard

is opposed to the attempts of the Lord of Kaga to reform the finances of the domain.

Their leader is the Lord of Tosa.

Otsuki was an infantryman that His Lordship has promoted in rank.

To them this does not go down.

Many of the older persons are against him.

I had known that.

So is bringing together men who secretly agree with him.

So help him to force others to accept his reforms.

To this came from you?

The rank does not matter to him.

For the sake of the domain, it will accept all people of good will.

You should talk to them.

Maestro Yasunobu?

Your wife is here.

He says he was looking for you, you have let slip the egg.

The chicken?

I have to ask you to come in?

No, thank you.

Scusatemi.

That witch!

"Strega"?

They say that your potato stew was very much appreciated.

They were good potatoes.

The origin makes a difference. As for women, I guess.

Are you married for six months, still no potato sprout from Edo?

Shotaro!

You talk too much!

And so Yasunobu will be considered for a promotion?

He was the master Kageyama to recommend it.

It's great!

We must thank the teacher Otsuki.

It was he who opened the way for promotions

for young people of low rank.

Have not yet been promoted.

Candidates must cook

with the ingredients you have available.

Not'll never make it.

Do not be silly!

Give it all, do not waste this opportunity!

Haru, what is this?

There was not enough duck meat, so I added the wheat bran.

Do not think of his kitchen, focus on yours.

And now? begin!

Yasunobu The master is back.

Welcome back.

Where is my mother?

Your aunt has asked her to join her in Kazuemachi.

I understand.

It would be the happiest of all.

What?

The duck with wheat bran he liked.

You did it.

My husband says that Yasunobu was promoted thanks to you.

It's really happy to have found a wife as good as you.

A wife in the leg? I'm just a witch.

But your husband is really a good friend to Yasunobu.

Yes, they were just children when they came for the first time in my father's dojo.

I am also very happy for the promotion of Yasunobu.

Thank you.

No, it is I who should thank you.

It is as if I had taken a weight from my heart.

I have to greet you here.

This is a gift from me to you all.

Thank you very much.

See you later.

He said it is as if a weight had been lifted from the heart?

Yes, he used these words.

I can imagine.

With time you will learn to know her better.

Maybe you should know the whole story.

Yasunobu began attending the dojo when he was nine years old.

Sayo was pretty and smart.

For Yasunobu was love at first sight.

All right.

Thank you!

They were the same age and got along well.

Being an only child,

Sayo was supposed to marry someone who would inherit the father's dojo.

We have not really talked about, but we took for granted that they would marry.

It was our second child, so he took their name.

Yasunobu threw himself headlong into the fencing.

He had to win the title of "first student" in fencing tournaments autumn.

Then we all expected that, as the husband of Sayo,

would be adopted.

But that summer Toshiyasu his brother became ill.

Contracted the plague and died.

So Yasunobu had to succeed his father.

Of course rebelled.

Sadanoshin was his last opponent.

It was his best friend.

They seemed perfectly equal.

But then Yasunobu let his guard down.

Stop!

Later he asked his father to succeed him in the kitchen.

Sayo Sadanoshin and became engaged shortly after.

However, Haru, are now things of the past.

Yasunobu should be back shortly.

Fare together.

Kiku?

Kiku!

My Lady.

It's been a bit 'since the last time I wrote.

State bene?

My husband has been promoted to the job of cook.

His mother is thrilled and so am I..

Six months have passed since I got married.

My husband is reserved but polite and his mother treats me like a daughter.

I'm much happier than he could expect an orphan.

Delicious!

This morning the pumpkin is great.

Soon it will be winter here in Kaga.

It will be my first winter in the North, but I guess I can stand it.

Please take care of yourself and be comfortable.

Haru.

Exquisite.

Miss Haru, even your tea is superb.

It is no longer the "Miss Haru", you know.

You're right!

I'll start from the beginning.

Haru, a year has passed.

Thank you for your years of service to Edo.

Thanks to you too.

The promotion of Yasunobu is thanks to you.

Nice one.

Have some free time? When you have to go back to the castle?

I'm thinking of asking to be able to withdraw.

You? Leave the kitchen?

Yasunobu now is a man who knows his stuff.

I'm planning to give him my place and write a book on the cuisine of Kaga.

It is a huge subject that starts with the food of the common people.

His haute cuisine with Chinese influences, even competes with that of Kyoto.

Even the "great feast."

All of it.

What is the "great feast"?

Our domain is a thorn in the side of the leaders of the Tokugawa government.

They want their relatives to govern all major domains.

They intend to destroy any Lord who is not their relative.

So, when we host a Tokugawa, we must demonstrate devotion.

We can not expense spared.

But where it can be Yasunobu?

I do not know why these days you come home so late.

It does not matter.

I am glad to see that Miss Haru's okay.

Father ...

Solo "Haru".

I said again, "Miss Haru"?

I've said?

So there will be an agreement to revise the price of rice?

I think so.

The Commissioner of Agriculture, Takaoka, gave his informal consent.

We will have to infiltrate the office of the Comptroller.

And the Lord of Kaga himself will proclaim the new sumptuary laws *.

(* Read aimed at regulating the ostentation of luxury.)

Then his lordship supports our ideas?

But there will be more older persons against.

I'm not a threat to us!

This does not mean that their supporters will not try to play dirty.

Just last night there was someone who was following the teacher Otsuki?

Do not be afraid!

My sword is not just for beauty.

I will defend!

All our seats to reform the administration of the domain!

Our movement is reaching its climax.

Let us be united and to use all our strength!

Are you up yet?

Your father told me all the great banquet.

It's a great cook, do not you?

It's just a samurai from the kitchen.

What do you mean? Its use in the kitchen is ...

Enough!

Turn off the light.

There is a problem!

Call a doctor! It is His Lordship!

Sta male!

In 1745 Maeda Yoshinori suddenly died of chronic beriberi.

It had been the main supporter of the reforms of Otsuki Denzo.

Thus began the "Disruption of Kaga."

The head of the anti-reform demanded the dismissal of Otsuki.

Maeda was Naomi Tosa.

Munetoki Maeda, the new Lord, Otsuki accused of creating dissent.

He was confined to a mountain retreat in the South of the domain.

The purge of the aspiring reformers extended up to the lower ranks.

Of 'Sayo to take good care of themselves.

See you later.

Take care of yourself.

These are by Haru.

There are three?

One is for the child.

Haru ...

Thank you.

Let's go.

Goodbye.

Your family has fallen on hard times while I walk free.

I am ashamed to be a samurai from the kitchen.

Do not be silly.

No one is blaming you.

It's not over.

I'm going to hide.

But with the removal of Otsuki,

the disruption of Kaga was not finished.

Munetoki, the new Lord, died early too.

He was succeeded by his brother, Shigehiro, who was still a boy.

But soon, at the residence of the Edo era, there was an attempt to poison him.

The Lord of Tosa suspected of Yoshinori's concubine, the lady Tei.

It was hidden under the guise of a nun named "Shinnyoin."

She was arrested.

The Lady a criminal? It can not be true.

I happened to catch her procession down the street.

They say he ordered a servant to give him the poison.

Poison?

Why is that?

If Shigehiro died, his son would be his successor.

They also say that the real father of the boy is Otsuki Denzo.

You adultery and conspiracy.

And a little 'of this dong quai *? It's good for fertility.

(* Chinese Angelica.)

What will happen?

The exile or execution.

It is confined in an accommodation of the castle.

I glimpsed the crowbar.

A beautiful nun of a certain age.

Killing her would be a waste.

My Lady?

How about these for dysentery?

I realize you're upset. She was like a mother to you.

But a written request to see it could be misunderstood.

Look what happened to Sadanoshin after which he joined in Otsuki ...

Mother!

Sadanoshin is not a traitor.

I know! And this is one more reason to be careful.

It's for the good of the family. Agree?

Haru ...

Prepare immediately the bathroom.

I'll make sure you see it.

But as?

I know the man who cooks his meals.

Parlero con him.

Thank you very much!

Do not thank me.

It's just that I do not like this situation.

Excuse me. I brought you dinner.

Next.

Haru!

My Lady!

What a treat!

Have you prepared all this?

That's all I can do for you.

I'm so glad you came!

He organized everything my husband.

He must love you very much.

Yes.

It is a very kind man.

This is good.

I am a dangerous criminal.

You would have been in trouble if I had stayed with me.

Those stories are lies about you. I am sure.

You're right.

It was all orchestrated by the Lord of Tosa.

However, there is a real thing.

Otsuki and I loved each other.

I appreciated very much the favor of His Lordship and gave birth to her son.

I'm pretty happy.

But there is one thing that I regret.

I did not become the wife of the man I loved.

I realize that you have to bear some costs.

But I envy you for your wedding.

These are yubeshi! For how many years.

(* A type of Japanese sweet.)

I found them in the city. They come from Noto.

The pulp of yuzu * is mixed with flour and steaming,

(* Species tangerine native to Asia.)

Then you hang the gutter throughout the winter.

Drying in the wind and warm in the winter sun.

For the arrival of spring will be seasoned to perfection.

I hope you and your husband will be so.

Shortly after Otsuki Denzo took his own life.

Shinnyoin also died, still confined to her quarters.

So Shigehiro Maeda came to Edo as the new Lord of Kaga.

Cook for a great feast?

It is the investiture of His Lordship.

He told me the Lord of Tosa.

To celebrate the new regime, invite the Tokugawa.

And the great lords of the neighboring domains.

What an honor!

This is the most important event of my life.

Yasunobu, I would like you to help me.

I do?

I will not have a better opportunity to teach what I know.

You have to be grateful. It is' your best.

I do not want to do it.

What are you saying?

I do not want to have anything to do with a feast to the Lord of Tosa!

Because of Sadanoshin?

Yasunobu, I understand how you feel.

But our duty is to serve the domain and its lord.

Yes, but ...

A samurai does not let personal feelings influence his duty!

I have already spoken with your supervisor.

From tomorrow, your seat will be with me, to plan the menu.

I got it?

Yasunobu!

I brought the tea.

Thank you.

Yasunobu is still out?

Yes.

It's probably somewhere getting drunk.

Haru, I'm sorry.

The deceased lady Shinnyoin was like a mother to you.

I am sure you have opinions on this feast.

No. I'm just a woman.

I do not know anything about politics.

I just hope that at least some Yasunobu assimilate 'the ability of his father.

You are wasted on him.

You are the only one to think so on this witch.

Witch?

You're a witch very pretty.

Thank you.

Yasunobu.

Who are you?

Have you forgotten me?

You're back ...

You're all wet!

You should not drink so much with this banquet coming up.

I'll get you water.

These courses go well, both in appearance as well as taste.

No, they are not up to par.

To this banquet is not just that the food is present elegant.

Must send the unit domain.

How can I explain it?

Must enclose his heart in the full flavor of the cuisine of Kaga.

I'm thinking of taking a trip with my son Yasunobu.

Andremo a Noto.

A Noto?

Yes.

To find the most intense flavors of its mountains and the sea.

The people of the land do not bend from the harsh winters.

In those places they have to hide flavors that we have never known.

I believe that we will be able to find them.

There's nothing I can say to counter your passion.

I leave everything to you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Until next time.

You are the wife of Funaki Yasunobu?

Yes, it's my husband.

You could give this with the utmost discretion?

Who shall I say ...

Welcome home.

Where is your father?

He went to the furnace.

Are cooking the dishes. He will not return tonight.

Can not delegate anything to anyone?

A letter?

Yes, on the desk.

A man came around noon and then went away.

What is it?

Nothing.

But ...

Do not talk to my mother. I got it?

Yasunobu ...

What's happening?

Kill the Lord of Tosa.

Today we will go on a hunt.

Sadanoshin and the others are back in town waiting for their chance.

Sadanoshin?

Did he get involved?

I asked myself.

You can not!

Think about your parents!

Is' shut up!

The child of Sayo Sadanoshin and broke the fever and died.

They could not take him to a doctor.

When I was little,

some guys said I was not suitable for a cleaver and a sword.

This hurt me, so I learned to fence.

Now I can make myself useful.

You'll be safe.

I left a letter of divorce for you.

I do not want you to suffer.

PREPARE i vestiti.

Haru!

Funaki is not here yet.

Sadanoshin, you are sure to come?

Yes.

Oh, no!

You found it?

Is not she?

My Lady!

Siete ferrite?

Let us.

Let us!

Do you realize what you've done?

Yes.

In this case ...

Prepare to die!

All I could think was that I wanted you to live.

That's it.

Sadanoshin and the others are dead!

Be ...

you're still alive, I'm happy.

Yasunobu?

What are you doing?

Mi ha umiliato!

I can not forgive!

If I had gone, you'd be dead and we would have been ruined!

She has saved us!

My life and family are not important!

Get off me!

Crazy!

Are you going to leave me and follow your brother?

What a good son you are!

My Lady!

I come from the castle.

The master Dennai was seized by an illness!

Returning from the furnace, suddenly was close to the chest.

You need to rest as much as possible.

After all, it is the heart.

Thank you for coming.

Haru, come here.

Seem to be two who have tried and failed to die.

Now they are too sick to take care of everything.

But I still want to serve as a cook for the great banquet of His Lordship.

Yasunobu, I need your help.

The recent problems have dragged down the dignity of the Kaga domain.

Now we have to think about how to best serve this domain and its true sir.

Shake a sword shedding blood is all that a samurai can do?

No.

We samurai kitchen, we offer a large banquet.

We must bring Kaga the serenity of a time.

This is what I think.

Haru, with Yasunobu go in my place?

Your taste buds will be useful.

Haru ... do it for me.

Yubeshi.

Oranges ...

Let's go. I want to be on the coast before nightfall.

Haru, what was the name of the village where we found the fish sauce?

My Lord!

I took the wood for the fire.

I am sorry.

Thank you for your long journey. You must be exhausted.

Father, on the way back I heard that it was granted a pardon.

Yes.

Shigehiro was given the title of "Lord."

On that occasion, he reinstated the men of Otsuki.

They were released.

Was quick too!

Ago 'attention!

Exactly!

If Sayo can return, it is only thanks to his lordship.

Sta making?

The family name is still Imai deleted.

However, a distant relative was allowed to adopt it.

It seems that now is in his residence.

She lost her baby and her husband, had nothing but bad luck.

But it is still young and talented.

You may still find a good party.

My prayers go with you.

My heartfelt thanks for coming

from so far away to be with us.

A year ago, Shigehiro Maeda, thanks to Tokugawa became the eighth Lord.

Now ...

Let's start!

Today with this feast we mark his entrance as the Lord of Kaga.

Bamboo shoots!

Yes, Master.

We ask for the continued indulgence of the Tokugawa and all the great lords.

Funaki Dennai and Yasunobu in your presence, my Lord.

I've been waiting. Revenue!

Compliments.

His Lordship and his guests were very satisfied.

It was a great meal.

You honor us with your praise.

From here, the city is very beautiful at sunset.

But all I can see is a scenario stained with blood.

Not long ago, a group plotting against my life.

To regain control, we had to eliminate them all.

Many of them were young.

Some had even family.

Similar facts should not happen again.

I'm bored with my complaints.

Is your food that draws strength with these feelings.

Yasunobu The master is back!

Thank you for your hard work.

Thank you. You handled it very well.

Enjoy your rest.

Haru?

Yasunobu!

Dov'è Haru?

Is n'è andata!

Haru has left us!

Is n'è andata?

I thought I had gone to the shrine to pray.

Then I found this.

Thank you for everything you have done for me.

From now on my job in the family Funaki has ended.

TOMBA DI SHINNYOIN

At my place, to find a bride Yasunobu more suitable for a samurai.

A wife who truly loves him.

I pray for your eternal congratulated e prosperity.

Haru.

It's madness!

There was also this.

You've already done for the day?

My husband fell asleep in the boat!

He still has a hangover?

It's a disaster!

Welcome back.

They look good!

- Bake them in the shells. - Yes.

Haru, the food tastes better when you came from!

They look good.

It's been a bit 'that you seek.

Why did you leave?

I told you in my letter.

I'm not worthy of being the wife of a samurai.

Your father took me into the house just because you teach her to cook.

He told me not to come back until I had found.

And I could not ...

My mother wants a grandchild from you and no one else.

It is true that I loved Sayo.

I wanted to marry her.

But you have changed my feelings.

I've changed.

The one that I need ... is you, Haru.

Please!

Stay with me for a lifetime.

Please!

Yasunobu surpassed his father and became Executive Chef of the domain.

His family served the Lords of Kaga for six generations,

until the end of the feudal era.

Dennai Yasunobu and left many books on the cuisine of Kaga.

Including "The ascetic silent kitchen."

Their menus are still living today in Japanese cuisine.
