Housekeeper of the Hundred Blossom Palace
Episode 55 What is delicious food?
The appetizers stimulated hunger, and the dishes were brought in one after the other.
All of them give off a scent that seems delicious.
And above all, I was surprised.
- I have fish dishes!
It's not a dried fish either.
The whole fish is steamed, and hot oil is sprinkled on top of the flavoured vegetables such as ginger.
This will be a dish unique to fresh fish.
Fish are also eaten in the posterior palace, but it is often river fish or salty dried goods.
Still a lot of ingenuity has been done in the kitchen, but the taste was still not good.
The fact that it is not dry means that the city is close enough to catch fish from the fishing port.
"Um, is this close to the sea?
"You've noticed well," said Prince Yu, who watched her question, telling me about the sea.
"There's a big port about half a day from here.
It's also our destination. "
I see, the rumored princess lives in the port town.
The fact that fresh seafood is all-you-can-eat is a good thing that I went to my daughter-in-law.
It's a port, that's why you handled the incoming goods.
Rain sister still doesn't see the sea in this world.
Is the world's ocean blue as well?
How did Port-au-Prince see Yu's sister, who could think of the sea like that?
"Well, I can stretch my legs to the harbor on my way home.
I'm sure it's all very unusual for you. "
This is what the Prince proposes.
Apparently you've considered Rain Sister, who doesn't know the sea, but this is a very happy suggestion.
--Can you eat fresh fish!?
With the expectation of the sea, Rain's sister's heart was about to fly to the sea as soon as possible.
But before we meet the delicious seafood, let's start with dinner right in front of us.
As before, they are eaten separately from all plates, but all are delicious.
The egg hot spring vegetables (tanzi), that is, the egg soup, are simple but rich, and the dumplings are juicy, and I am even more impressed by the fish dishes.
But it seems that Rain sister is not the only one who is impressed.
"The happiness of being able to taste prepared dishes is extraordinary."
Beyond the table, the prince said so.
Even the princesses are far from cooking.
Raised in the posterior palace from the time of birth, the opportunity to eat a warm meal itself must be rare.
--After all, it's hard to say it's great.
It was my sister, Rain, who felt so stingy, but Prince kept talking.
"Besides, I feel that the food I eat outside is more delicious than what is served in the palace.
It's strange, because they're definitely using high-end ingredients. "
The Prince makes it look ridiculous, but it's nothing strange or weird.
"Of course, meals are tasted with five senses."
When Yu Sister told her in her normal face, both Prince Tachiyoshi and Lyon rounded their eyes.
"... five senses?
Asked with a strange face, Rain Sister leans her neck.
--Isn 't this normal?
I seem to have said something strange, but I can't undo the words that have appeared.
There was nothing I could do about it, so Sister Yu talked about her knowledge of nutrition in her previous life.
"The five senses are visual, hearing, tactile, taste, and olfactory.
What Akesama usually eats is a poisoned meal.
It's going to take time, and it's going to fall out of the best of cooking. "
In that case, I can't particularly taste the flash of oil or the hot texture of the product, and the fragrance will disappear.
I can't help but feel that the quality of the flavour is degraded.
And that's why the dishes outside that you can taste with the five senses are more delicious.
"Well, there's a good reason why eating out there is delicious."
After being impressed, the prince laughed a little and said, "Is that why?"
"My father used to go out with his favorite daughter and have street food.
I was used to walking in the city because I was a daughter from a commoner, and he showed me a world I didn't know even when I was in the palace. "
In the unexpected emperor's old tale, Rain Sister snorts her chest.
- I wonder if that's about Mom.
In that case, it would be hard for my mother to have a street date with the emperor.
Rain sister's mother has become a tragic heroin.
I am relieved to learn that it was not only difficult for the posterior palace life, but also enjoyed it.
And now he and Tachiyoshi are having a pleasant conversation, surrounded by meals.
--This might seem like a family reunion.
Rain sister raised in Niji was taught to eat silently.
However, it makes me feel extra lonely as long as I remember a lively meal in my previous life.
So it was a fresh feeling to have a lively meal with the Miyagis, and it was fun to have a gentle conversation and eat like this.
--Fun meals are even more delicious.
I never realized that Prince Tachiyoshi and Prince Tachiyoshi looked at each other and laughed at her.
When you go back to your room and eat a delicious meal like this, you'll be seduced by the futon, but there's still work to be done, so you can enjoy it.
Yes, sew your pants.
When I spread the silk cloth that I bought today, because I don't have a cutting knife, I managed to cut the cloth with a thread cutting knife and stitch it.
Because it is a familiar task, it is quick, and eventually two pants will be completed.
That's it!
If I change my pants quickly, I will go to the laundry and wash them and dry them indoors.
And when I finally slept, if I jumped into the shark futon, I would quickly travel into my dreams.
