Isekai Ryouridou
Tour of Castle Town ③ ~ "Silver Star Hall" ~
"Just the other day, I didn't get to finish my new dish, so I'd like you to try that one"
With the words of Varcus, the dishes are arranged. Since the old maid of the servant remained out, it is the four disciples who are responsible for the catering.
A small white deep dish is served with stewed meat and vegetables. The color of the broth was deep green and, naturally, the smell of vanilla was strong.
"The meat will be the meat on the back of the caron, and the vegetables will be chacci and timfa. I used caron meat because I had just cut the giva meat, but I think it would be harmonious with the giva meat if I fine-tuned it."
Pale only, Vulcus had stated so.
The hunters were also served dishes today, so Giza-Lou is raising his voice "Hmm".
"What an incredible scent. I can't imagine exactly what it tastes like."
That was the same for me. It looks very spicy and is very refreshingly fragrant, but on the back of it the complex aromas that gave it a sense of sweetness, acidity and fragrance loosened up quickly.
"Okay, I'll take it"
This is a tasting, so take up the dishes without pre meal wording.
The table was prepared with knives and forks, but the caron meat was so soft that it did not have to be cut apart. Looks like it's been simmering pretty carefully.
So, when I brought the dish to my mouth - the complexity felt from the aroma has ravaged my tongue with many times more intensity.
The spiciness, it's not that strong. The mellow sweetness and sourness and deep fragrance dominated it, and the spiciness stimulated the tongue as it followed later.
The intricate flavour is also firmly sticky inside the meat. And the taste of meat and fat made its complex taste deeper, making your presence a boost.
Somehow, the richness is amazing.
Looks like you'll be teasing me even more about the taste buds than the usual Varcus dishes.
However, the nose leaves a sober scent.
I didn't feel like wanting water or baked poitan when I said it had such an intense taste.
Plus if you try the vegetables, you'll be waiting for a different flavour.
Both potato and cabbage tinfa are vegetables that do not have a strong flavour in themselves, but at the same time relieve the rich broth flavour and produce a much different flavour of fur.
Chatch felt so sweet.
The potato chatch is sweet as a sweet potato. I guess this is due to some fine workmanship, the sugar content of the chatch is raised.
Tinfa felt strong acidity.
I wasn't sure if the tinfa itself was acidic, or if the ingredients in the broth produced acidity by bonding with the ingredients in the tinfa, but anyway, the tinfa was sweet and sour like citrus fruit, and that felt like it would wash my mouth comfortably again.
"This... is an amazing dish"
Mim was exhaling deeply.
"If it's off-target, I'm afraid… Could this be a dish with miso?
"Yes, it will be a dish that pursues the harmony of miso and vanilla"
With that word, I was once again to be surprised. The fragrance and strong richness felt from this dish were brought from the miso.
But other than that, I can't feel anything like a miso flavor. This was such an incredible dish that none of the miso itself existed, even though it must have a flavor that could not be created without a miso.
"Is this the dish with the miso… I couldn't feel the flavor of the miso at all"
Rayna-Lew was crushing like that.
Its strong, shining blue eyes eventually stare at Varcus' blurry face.
"Varcus, may I ask you one thing?
"Yes, what is it?
"Miso seems to be an ingredient that has a great flavour in itself. The idea of tailoring it to such a different flavor… what kind of mood does it come from?
Varcus let his gaze wander as if even the butterflies dancing in the universe were going after him.
"When asked what kind of mood it is, I have difficulty responding… I am just aiming for complete harmony"
"But even if you don't want to taste so different, isn't miso just a little hassle, an ingredient that can create a delicious flavor?
"Right. But isn't that the same thing with every ingredient? If it is the finest meat of carons, simply sprinkle and cook with salt is delicious enough, and carefully raised tarapas and others enjoy a rich flavour, even if they remain intact. With sugar and honey, few people will find it tasteless to lick it as it is."
So once we separated the words, Vulcus said.
"But aren't you bored then"
"Are you bored..."
"Yes, ingredients have endless possibilities. I consider it boring to dismiss that possibility and be satisfied with a palate easily within my reach. Should I say that I want to bring the possibility of sleeping within the ingredients to the table as far as I can..."
So Vulcus looked more at Mim, who was listening to this question with a serious face.
"I and Lord Michel have nowhere to turn into their essence while cooking in the exact opposite way.... Lord Michelle once said that."
"Yes, I was also wholeheartedly convinced of the story"
"It would be. I also agree with Lord Michel. Both Lord Michel and I'm sure Lord Asta have an eye on tapping into the possibilities of ingredients. However, it is a way of bringing out the flavors that I lurk in the shadow of the ingredients, whereas Lord Michel and Lord Asta aim for complete harmony by adding richer colors to the flavors on the surface. It just seems like that's the difference."
"Taste lurking behind the ingredients...... right. I couldn't realise that this flavor was hidden in the miso, either."
That's what I said, and Mim grinned.
"I think this dish is really great. I also think it is a dish that I and my father will never be able to cook. … and I consider my father's cuisine as wonderful as it is"
"Yes, I agree with that too. So I am truly delighted that Lord Michelle's manipulation has taken over from you."
Saying it that way, Varcus has turned his gaze towards me.
"... How was Lord Asta? If you don't mind, we'd love to hear your thoughts."
"Yes, it's really great food, and I was amazed from the bottom of my heart. It's hard for me to think of reconciling miso and vanilla in this way. Plus, it's amazing how different it feels with meat and vegetables."
"I've tried other vegetables, but the chacci and tinfa seem to be the most harmonious for this flavoring. However, since two types of vegetables are not enough, we intend to continue our research."
Sheila-Lou and Rimi-Lou and Tour-Din also mouthed their thoughts. Afterwards, Yun-Sudra and Ray-Matua from the next table follow. In it, Vina Ruu-Lilin was smiling with a much troubled face.
"I don't even know what kind of thoughts to say. Wow... I'm sorry that you allowed me to accompany you instead of Lara..."
I guess I cared about that because only Lara-Luu could participate among the sisters in the Luu main house. Then I heard that word Rimi-Lou said, "It's okay!" He raised his voice.
"If Sin-Lu was with me, Lara might have shaved, but that didn't happen at all! I was wondering if Lara would have thought that if she had Schmiral-Lilyn, Sister Vina should go."
"No more... loud, don't be too embarrassed..."
If it had been before, her face would have turned bright red, but Vina Ruu-Lilin just smiled embarrassingly as she wriggled her long-nosed side of hair. The manipulation is so glossy that it cannot be said.
"What about you, Schmiral...? You are probably the most familiar with Sim's vanilla......?
"Yes. But this dish, it's incredible. Sims, these dishes, they don't exist."
Then the bozzle, which was holding back behind Varcus's nape, said, "Hmm?" He raised his voice.
"Speaking of which, you were talking about becoming a family member by the woods in hopes of joining someone in the Lou family. Maybe you should...?
"Yes, not son-in-law, but daughter-in-law, but the other day, the wedding, to give, it didn't"
"That's it," Bozzle chuckled as Schmiral-Lilyn replied smiling around.
"Whatever, congratulations. Just now, once again, I would like to share with you my words of celebration. … before that, how would you like to taste it?"
Malfira-Naham had yet to share his thoughts among Kamadoku numbers by the woods. "Ha, ha, yes," Malfira-Naham glanced as Ray-Matua elbowed it around.
"And I think it's a very strange, very delicious dish. Ko, Ko, will this flavoring also go with Giva meat? Well, I can't imagine anything at all."
"Yes, I believe Gibba should be more harmonious than Kimmus. You'll need to adjust the amount of vanilla and how much it burns, so you might want to do it overnight."
"Oh, well... well, I'm going to give it a try, too"
"Try it?", Vulcus tilted his little neck.
Malfira-Naham nods coddly as he swims his gaze.
"Ha, yes. The vanilla used in this dish seems to be at home, so I thought I'd use it as a seasoning reference..."
"Just give me a minute. What vanilla was used in your current dish, and you read all of it?
When Roy raised his voice sharply, Murphyra-Naham fell asleep.
"Ha, yes. Wow, since vanilla I don't know didn't seem to be used..."
"... I'm afraid I'm going to try, but then how many herbs do you think this guy uses?
"Ro, Ro, I think there are six kinds..."
Roy took a breath and looked at his neighbor, Siri-Low. Siri-Low is also a rather puzzling face.
Varcus again turned to me with the same blurry look.
"How many kinds of vanilla do you think Lord Asta used?
"There were four kinds of ideas. I guess a couple of different kinds have been used already, I thought."
"So, what about Lord Mime?
"Me, too, six species, right? At last, I've been studying vanilla."
"Ladies and gentlemen of the Lou family...... were you Lord Raina-Lou and Lord Sheila-Lou? Besides, how about Lord Tour-Din?
"There are three kinds that we can tell from each other."
"Me too, three species."
"I am… four species. I'm sure you've got an idea because it's a herb used in bulky."
"I see," he nodded, then Varcus turned to Malfira-Naham.
"Indeed, six kinds of vanilla were used in the current dish. But it should be a dish that miso and vanilla can't do alone."
"Ha, yes. Panem honey, white mammalian vinegar, lambs and seals are also used. Besides, Kimmus' bone gala stock hasn't been rubbed in his own house yet."
"Whoa," Roy said, shaking his head.
Siri-Low and others are becoming increasingly noisy eye-catching. It was kind of like the first time I was in a relationship.
In the meantime, Vulkas is watching Malfira-Naham with the same seemingly sleepy eye.
"You were only, Mal...... Lord Malholo-Hanam?
"Wow, my name is Malfira-Naham"
"Excuse me. I'm not good at remembering people's names and faces....... Lord Malfira-Naham, will we be able to eat your dishes today as well?
"And, that's outrageous. I'm still immature."
"Really? I'd be happy to feed you your dishes any day."
Malfira-Naham is letting his eyes swim in a frightened manner.
Ray-Matua, who was sitting next to him, said, "That's amazing!" and whispering in a strong way sounded more like me.
"So can we also try the food of the people by the woods"
"Ah, yes. You don't have Roy's today, do you?"
When I questioned him that way, Roy snorted "Hmm."
"My master, who doesn't know forgiveness, will give me the next challenge, so I don't even have to study my cooking. It's a hundred years early for me to develop a dedication."
"I don't think it's going to take until a hundred years, but you don't have the basis to handle ingredients, Roy."
Blurring Roy, Varcus offered his hand to the cook's door.
"Okay, here you go. You said you didn't need any ingredients in particular, right?
"Yes, basically, because I've prepared dishes that just need to be rewarmed"
Me, Mim, and Raina-Lou, the three of us, are going to interrupt the cook.
The "Silver Star Hall" cook was unexpectedly made without an external flavour. It seems to be a common dish in Castle Town, such as an iron oven on a stone kamado and various cookware.
However, the cabinets filled with almost one side of the wall are staggeringly lined with vanilla-filled vitreous bottles. There must be more vanilla stored in the pantry. Some black roasts of some kind soaked in yellow liquid and sparkling seven-colored stone blocks seemed to me unknown.
"Don't touch that cupboard. If you mess with me on your own, Vulcan can't stop being so loud."
Roy, who has accompanied me as a guide, says so.
"Of course," Roy snuck in even more as I warmed up the dish again.
"Hey, that Malfira-Naham thing was your turn to join us recently. What the hell kind of a trait is that?
"What qualities are not unusual qualities. But anyway, I was your daughter from the beginning, and there was a part of me that was kind of eye-catching."
"... what kind of dish does he cook?
"I don't know. Actually, I've never spoken of the dish she made on her own, either. It's a very far-fetched personality, so I guess I'm focusing on training right now."
Roy was to take a deep sigh.
"Next thing you know, don't come out with all kinds of stuff. If I don't keep my feet together, you guys are gonna break my nose again."
"Haha. I'm looking forward to Roy's new dishes, so good luck with that."
That's how we did our job, and we decided to call the women who were holding back in the dining room and ask them to help us with the meals. As a matter of fact, we were on the verge of finishing our lunch with the Giva dishes we brought.
The Vulkas have settled their hips in their empty seats. As we handed out each dish, Bozzle shouted "ho ho".
"This is all about stunning food. It's more like a regular meal than a tasting."
"Yes, I just don't consider the combination of contributions at all, so please note that"
Finish handing out all the plates and let us take our seats too.
On my front, there was a faceless combination of Varcus and Turtumai.
"Let me begin by explaining that I am the 'Giva Curry', Mime is the stewed dish, Raina-Lou and Sheila-Lou are the juice dishes, and Tour-Din is the confectionary."
What I prepared was a special "Nanar Gibacalay" made from Nanar when I was a horseradish. Lou's color is intense green, with plenty of grated giva shoulder meat and small cut vegetables.
What Mim has prepared is a stewed dish of miso that was also revealed yesterday. The people by the woods, with the exception of Ray-Matua, will be devoting two consecutive days, but there will be no one to complain about.
Raina-Lou and Sheila-Lou were new juicy dishes. Yesterday it was tarrapa tailored, but today it is caron milk tailored, and here too, marole is used to flavor Ama shrimp.
Tour-Din was also popular with the nobles of Gerd, Ofukuki. Just like at that dinner party that day, I prepare three kinds: plain crumbs, aloof crumbs, a blend of chocolate and koshi.
"For this meal, we have also prepared baked poiton. Enjoy the Vulcas if you like."
"Yes, thank you.... Are you sure now?
Quick to say, Varcus was picking up a metal spoon.
The goal is my prepared "Nanar Gibacalay". Well, it was a reaction as expected when it came to anticipation.
First, just shrug up Lou with a spoon, and mouth it.
Next, mouth the ingredients, and then eat the baked potatoes.
At the end of the day, Vulcan looked heavenly.
"Lord Asta, you're not using butter in this dish, are you? Nevertheless, it seems to me that this… completes harmony without deception"
"Yes. This, I tried to change the way I made it from the ground up. Would you have liked it?
"... it seems to me that we are completing harmony without deception," Varcus repeated the same words.
"But I do think this has a much different finish than the dish called Gibbon, which we have been feeding for a long time. It goes without saying that Nanar is predominantly formulated with a very different fat content… and the tongue and texture are quite unlikely to be the same dish"
"Yes, there were different kinds of curries in my hometown, so this time I referenced different curries with different colors"
Nevertheless, I'm not that familiar with a wide variety of curries either. However, this time, I relied on unrestrained memories to try to taste closer to the real Sag Curry.
Sag Curry has been challenged several times before. However, I didn't come as well as the other curries, so I decided to review the way it was made from the ground up.
In the first place, Sag Curry - or the one called Green Curry - should have been classified as Thai, not Indian. Still, I didn't even know the official recipe, so I tried and mistakenly pursued the ideal flavor.
The basic way to make it was not to create curry vegetables as usual, but to create a basement that would be a root vegetable of various kinds, add spices, and then simmer in conjunction with a paste of nanal.
The basement that serves as the vegetable of Lou is the mincing of the roots of Aria, Myrmu and Kerr with crushed tarapa and milk fat. First fry the Myrmu and Kerr roots to give the aroma, add plenty of minced aria, wait for them to turn candy, then add them in the order of tarrapa, spices and milk fat. Then add the ingredients lightly stir-fried in another pan and the nanal paste and simmer.
The ingredients are made from Giva's shoulder meat and Aria, Nenon, Chach and Ma Pra. It's a champagne with Japanese curry around here.
And Nanar's paste seemed to me that it was not enough on its own, so I'm adding Rohyoi when it's Nila and Pepe and Luckola.
Initially, there still seemed to be some tightness, but after repeated trial and error, sugar and seal juice were also added when simmering.
It was this new book, Nanar Gibacalay, that made it possible to do so.
As far as I'm concerned, I was proud to say that the Japanese curry and Indian curry I finished earlier were no less successful.
"As much as I said earlier, I think we seem to be completing harmony without deception...... it could have been premature to make such a decision"
And, after about half a curry, Varcus spoke again.
"Of course, I'm not complaining about this dish. For me, this feels like an undue harmony. But if it is Lord Asta... he may also jump slightly over my imagination to show further harmony"
"What do you think? But this is a dish that has finally just finished cooking, so you might want to do something with it again as you make it"
"In doing so, I would also like to give you a tasting."
Then Tartumai, who was silently in the process of tasting, also raised his voice.
"Varcus, I know what it's like to be distracted by Lord Asta's cooking, but shouldn't other dishes also see the flavor before the fever escapes"
"Oh, right. You've lost me."
Varcus reset his mouth with cold tea before attracting another wooden dish. It is a stewed dish of mime.
When he mouthed the dish, Varcus narrowed his eyes "Hmm..."
"You use miso for this dish. … So you also tried to dominate sweetness and acidity in a stewed dish of miso"
"Yes, I know you're not as handy as Varcus, but I've worked hard on it."
"No, this is the way Lord Michelle works. It seems to me that the waking taste is refined while leaving the flavor of miso firmly intact. It's a brilliant harmony, too."
"No, really!," Bozzle comes from the next table to indicate his consent.
"It's a truly wonderful taste, different from Lord Asta and Lord Varcus! I never thought of using a miso to assemble such a flavor."
From a distant position, the bozzle smiles. Mim looked heartily happy and smiled back at you.
"Is Lord Mime going to put this dish up for sale in Inn Town?
"Yes. Being a family member of the Lew family has allowed me to use wood dishes too, so I'm thinking of serving this dish"
"I see! I will definitely buy it when I head out to Inn Town."
There, Vulcan's voice overlaps: "Hmm..." Soon, at its disposal, the juicy dishes of the Raina-Lou's were attracted.
"Is it a juicy dish made with caron's milk and mallow? Treating Mallory and veterinary meat at the same time is something that tends to disturb harmony...... I don't even see those deficiencies in this dish. Even if they told me this was the dish Lord Asta made, I wouldn't have doubted it."
"Thank you," Rayna-Lew smiled after breathing in relief. Sheila-Lou also does her hand to her chest with her eyelids closed.
"But I think this dish… somewhere goes by Lord Michelle's method as well. After all, is it the result of Lord Michelle's handcuffing?
"Yes, we live in the same settlement as Michele, so we have been advised more than once. This dish will also be very influential."
I also fed it, but this one utilized the mellow sweetness of caron milk and the flavor of mallow, while adding spice and fragrance with vanilla. The use of vanilla for caron milk-based juices was certainly supposed to be Michele's influence, not mine.
Yet this thick texture is clearly the method obtained from the cream stew. In that sense, it's probably the dish that hybridized me and Michelle's moves.
"Michelle has become a family member by the woods, so we believe she can get more advice than ever in the future. There is no such thing as a difficult story for us."
"Right. I would say that it is a very privileged environment to be able to reach both Lord Asta and Lord Michel, for example. It may have been a Western god's fault to have a man of your kind on the spot."
With an undulating voice, Vulcan had just stated so.
"If it is your instrumentality, you will not waste the teachings of Lord Michel. I am truly delighted that Lord Michelle's moves will be passed down to more than one human being without dying."
"... it's a real honor for you to say that, Varcus"
After responding that way, Raina-Lou softly plucked his eyes. Apparently, Varcus' words were as delightful as his tears were.
And at the end of the day, it is a treat from Tour-Din.
Here again, the bozzle says, "Oh!" He was raising his voice.
"This is the fruit of the brake, isn't it? At a tea party about when it was, Siri-Low asked me if I was served sweets made with braised fruit...... no, it's really delicious. I'm impressed."
"Right. I thought it was an ingredient that harmoniously blends with sweetness, but this is arguably a flavor that makes full use of the rich flavors of the brew fruit."
Varcus also agrees, without getting lost. Next to it, Tartumai had slightly opened his eyes.
"The handling of the brew fruit is also brilliant, but as far as I'm concerned, I'm amazed by this fabric. This is Chaska fabric, isn't it?
"Yes. Both the fruit of the brake and the fabric of the chaska will be completed by the hand of Asta."
Shrinking her body in, she was still smiling happily.
After finishing his second Dafuku cake, Varcus narrows his eyes "Hmm".
"I don't know how heavy it is to treat it as a post-meal treat, but as a treat to eat as a stand-alone treat, it's a great job. Your Ladies at the Tea Party will be very satisfied."
"Oh, at the tea party today, I'm going to serve another treat..."
"... you think you're preparing something else that can't even beat this treat?
"This is a totally different treat, so I don't know which one tastes better... Wow, I prefer both as much"
With Odifia already delivering Dafuku cakes and gonumoki rolls, and desirable treats like the ones we don't normally deliver anyway, we plan to unveil the crepes today.
Varcus makes his gaze wander to chase even the butterflies again.
"Lord Tour-Din. How many kinds of sweets can you make?
"Yeah? Well, no matter how many species you say... Asta will do a lot of hands-free work, so it should go up to quite a few..."
"So how many of those things seem as favorable as this confection?
Tour-Din made his eyes black and white, but still began to break his fingers diligently.
"Uh... the first thing I learned was chatching... mumpy, leave me alone... ro-ruki, so this - soggy, soggy... soggy, doggy, soggy... gonumoki roll, oh, soggy, daffy... and then there was me... oh, there was the plumpy, daffy, daffy... of the tripe..."
…………
"I think there are about sixteen or so, except for the difference in taste... what is that...?
"Sixteen varieties," he repeated, before Vulcus turned back to the mime.
"Lord Mime. How many dishes do you think are as complete as just now?
"Right, I think four or maybe six, even sweetly,"
Then Tul-din panicked and said, "Um!" I raise my voice.
"Ma, compared to Mim's cooking, I get in trouble. In the first place, it's my turn not to go under Mim's feet..."
"I have always believed that cooking and confectionery are to be treated separately. As I've told you before, I only drill light confectionery after meals, but it's also the result of thinking that if I drilled confectionery and dishes at the same time, I wouldn't be able to make something satisfying while it's raw."
Varcus said that only in a flat voice.
"I do not know how many cooks you are. But you are someone who can make more delicious treats than anyone else in this room. The only thing you can fight will be about Siri-Low... but still, it will be difficult to prepare as many as sixteen of these quality treats"
"Wow, I just stated the number of sweets that I think I prefer, until I can thrive on them..."
"The fact that you seem to be preferable is a testament to the fact that quality is preserved."
Varcus was extremely light, crushing Thur-din's objections.
"I am a man who has given up on the flavour of confectionery. So no matter how delicious sweets you mouth, you won't be too emotionally shaken. But still, I know how painfully you are a man with exceptional arms.... Have you ever been around Lord Dia since?
"Yes, no. I haven't seen you yet."
"Really? The method is completely different, but I think he is also an extremely sweet-making person. If you mouth your sweets, you'll have something to gain."
Thus Vulcus finally laid his hands on the third Dafuku cake.
There, Roy's sarcastic voice flies.
"For not being shaken up by your emotions, you've spoken for a long time. The truth is, aren't you disturbed by the deliciousness of this confection?
"No, there is no reason for me to disturb my heart"
After stating it that way, Varcus lowered his mouth to the lid.
"However, I would like to pay tribute to Lord Tour-Din, who has been able to create so many delicious treats. If I had two bodies, I would have liked to try to drill delicious confectionery… crackles inspired me to do that."
It was blurry and seemed like a lot of sleep, it was a smile that Varcus rarely showed.
Tour-Din turns his eyes round looking distracted for a while, then bows his head, "Oh, thank you," he says.
When I raised my head that way, Thur-din's little face had a glowing smile on it.
