Hikiusu used at the rescue center
Father de Rotz carefully recorded the date, temperature, quantity, wind direction, number of workers, etc. of the production of somen at the Aid Center. The eastern wind is written as Kochi, the northwestern wind as Anaze, and the southerly wind as Hai. It can be seen from the records that he was working outside the summer, which is not suitable for making somen. At that time, it was said that women kneaded somen noodles before joining the church early morning mass.
Kokoro Cutting Machine (developed by Father de Rotz)
A tool that can cut several parts at the same time while reciprocating left and right with a fulcrum centered on a circle.
"If you don't have a sharp point, you'll be fine. You won't wear Kasuri or silk. For the sake of the world.
This song is a song made by the priest, which means “Eat foods like kankoro (dried sweet potatoes) and enjoy happiness and happiness even if you live in a poor kimono.”
Today's Aid Center as seen from Father de Rotz's record book
