680 Friendly Meals (2) - Tasting Party

Then a while later, the dinner party dish was finished safely.

By the start of the meeting, there's still going to be a lot of slack. In the meantime, me and Varcus decided to teach the waiter's lowest names how to cater before moving to the small room next to the cook.

Polearth said we should keep our own meal going at this hour, but the truth is, it's a little harsh in time. Neither me nor Varcus were left with the last finishing touches that I couldn't leave my last name on a five-item fish dish.

That's why I decided to finish only tasting your dishes at this time.

For a decent dinner, you just have to take your time after the meeting. If you don't mind, when the Vulcas suggest how to cook Giva with them, it is something that was held by the masked Vulcas all the time.

After all those extra bends, it's a tasting party.

Bring your dishes into the next room and turn the table over to each other. Siri-Low and Bozzle and Tartumai also looked magnificent, first and foremost.

"This time, thank you very much for bringing the way the dishes are served here"

Let me put it that way, and Varcus shook his head with no expression.

"It is not uncommon for the aristocrats to be given detailed instructions on how to serve and combine dishes. Compared to that, it seems less laborious."

What I asked for was a so-called abbreviated method. Appetizers, juice and fuwano dishes, vegetable and fish dishes, and after-dinner confectionery are methods of serving dishes in three stages.

"By the way, I have one suggestion for you."

Dining, where Vulcus has raised his voice as such.

"Instead of tasting at the same time, why not take the form of eating one dish and the other serving the dish?

"Yes, of course, I don't mind... but why?

"When you speak of Lord Asta's cooking, your heart will be occupied with it and you will no longer be able to hear what this dish has to say."

He was Varcus, who remained a blurry face and spoke extremely enthusiastic words.

"It's an honor," he says, feeling the tickling comfort.

"Shall we eat your dishes in turn with the first three dishes, the next two dishes, the last confectionery? That's what we're supposed to serve to the nobles."

"I understand. Let's get you out of my dishes, just like the actual meals."

That's why Kamadu's number by the woods was to be seated once.

Since we have already finished tasting our own dishes, we only indulge in Vulcan cuisine on this occasion. Moreover, Ai-Fa and Rudd-Lou were not included in the tasting members, so they stood silently behind me and Limi-Lou.

The Vulcas are for five people, and they serve dishes with stiffness. This one had a large number of people, and was prepared for the Giva dish, so the Varcus dish is actually a small portion.

"The first three dishes will be my Jagali dishes"

Three dishes are lined up in front of us.

Marfila-Naham and others, who were finally to mouth the full course of Vulcus, were swimming their eyes with furious momentum.

"Is it jah, jah, jah gal food? The people of the south are eating this kind of food in their homeland."

"It will only be my Jagali dish. If you're a fan of old-fashioned Jagal cuisine, you might frown on what a strange dish it is"

"Oh, well, you are. I'm sorry to interrupt."

Varcus was tilting his little neck as he watched Malfira-Naham bow his head with Pekopeko.

"But you were also present during the inquisition of the miso. Do you mean Lord Asta's new apprentice?

"Yes, the way you say disciple may be inappropriate, but I've been doing this for about a month now. His name is Malfira-Naham."

I let him introduce me that way, but I guess it will be difficult for Varcus to remember his name unless in the future Malfira-Naham blossoms his talents and even makes things unveil his dishes. The only reason you could see my face was because the sun hasn't opened much since my last meeting - and after all, it was thought that Malfira-Naham was a memorable appearance and behavior.

Whatever it is, it is a Vulcan dish.

Varcus' luscious Jaguar dishes inspired my curiosity - at first glance, I wasn't sure what was Jaguar-inspired.

The appetizer is a tribute that has become familiar, a lovely dish with a thin fuwano dough of one centimetre square with a jam-like paste. It is originally a story of one serving in nine, but this time it has only been handed out to each person one at a time.

Fuwano dishes are buns. Because it was put in a steamer until just before, it is still boiling hot air. This was also small enough to crush the ping-pong sphere a little flat.

And the juice dish is a tarapa-tailored soup. It was a really complex fragrance, branded as a jaguar dish, but seemed to have vanilla on it.

"Hmm. I mean, meat isn't used for this, either, huh?

When Rudd-Lou commented as he peered into Limi-Lou's hand, Varcus responded "yes" to discipline.

"I don't see many customers in Genos asking me to unify them with fish dishes, but for me it's just a familiar dedication. Enjoy without escaping heat."

"Yes, then, I'll have it"

This meant tasting, no pre-meal wording, and we decided to put our hands on the appetizer first.

The paste of the day has a beautiful cherry blossom color, with black and red grains scattered there. I know so many times that it is so small but so destructive that I tried to throw it in my mouth, holding on tight - but from afar, I could hear the screaming "hia" all around.

"Sh, shh, excuse me. Oh, it was something that had such a strong flavor and aroma that I was surprised"

Must have been an anticipation, it was Malfira-Naham.

He keeps his head down with no one in his seat. Smiling at that, I had to mouth Varcus' appetizer.

Indeed, it has a vibrant taste.

It just has a good seafood flavor. This was the flavor of malor similar to sweet shrimp.

There, the strong spiciness of vanilla is worked out. Tortoise-based, hot spiciness. But the mellow sweetness and slight bitterness crept through its horns, and it was not difficult to eat at all.

I like the crunchy texture like pie fabric. I guess this fabric is responsible for the majority of the sweetness. The flavour of milk fat is also strongly felt in sugar and panam honey.

Is the bitterness still a gigigi leaf? It was fragrant, slightly sour and perfectly matched the flavor of Mallory.

"No matter how many times you eat, you can't get used to Vulcan cooking. Even though it's not a giva dish, it makes my chest squeak."

Raina-Lou, who sat in the next seat, was crushing like that in a whisper.

I'll give you a nod back, and then I'll get the wooden key. Following the original order, I decided to let them taste the juice dishes.

Tarapa tailored red soup with a lukewarm oil membrane.

After stirring it gently, I carried only the soup into my mouth first.

Really, the taste spreads through my mouth.

It is seafood. Even so, seafood nourishment blended in there.

The flavor of Tarapa is strong, but it has an overwhelming presence. The fact that the flavour of the stock is first felt rather than the flavour or aroma of vanilla may have been a rare phenomenon in the Varcus cuisine.

But of course, vanilla is plentiful.

Unexpectedly, the pain has not been painful. It was not at all spicy, but it felt like there was a slightly irritating flavor scattered behind the intense flavors of seafood and tarrapa.

Sweetness and bitterness are also natural. Turning to consciousness, there were different flavors hidden there, but it was as if they were escaping and hiding on their tongues as if they were hides.

(I mean... delicate taste?)

Making, it's hard to describe the taste of cooking in words.

With that in mind, I tried to grab the ingredients.

The first thing that crept up was a small slice of white fish.

And something like an indistinguishable thread is teasing at that piece of flesh. If the other person wasn't Varcus, even his hair would have been mixed in.

(You're wearing that mask, but your hair won't fall off)

That's why I decided to carry the wooden spoon to my mouth without any concern.

Really, strong spiciness comes up in my mouth.

Nothing. It was a thin carving of vanilla like a thread.

Its intense spiciness lingers on white fish, creating a new flavour.

No, it's a synergy, I guess, with a soup that's thicker and more delicate. A very different flavor emerged from the finely chopped vanilla like this yarn.

After all, the arm of Vulcus was a wizard.

I look back on Vulcan with all my heart.

"This is great food, isn't it? Is this the kind of fish dish you like in Jagal?

"No. It's true that fish dishes are preferred in Jagal, but you won't be able to use so much seafood unless it's also quite the southern seaside. Of course, vanilla and so on are rarely used, and the method of simmering fish in tarapa must be such that it barely leaves any remnants of Jagali cuisine."

When Bozzle replied that way with a smile, Varcus looked back at you blurry.

"Is it? Both sugar and tau oil are essential to this dish. A juicy dish of river fish with tarapa, sugar and tau oil is Jagal's specialty, isn't it?

"But few humans will feel the taste of sugar or tau oil from this dish. They give way to seafood stock and vanilla, and they pull into the back."

Bozzle laughed cheerfully.

All these Kamadoku people are soaking up soup with a serious face. In it, Rimi-Lou was still the only innocent smile.

"It tastes strange, but it's delicious. If I add Giva's meat, it looks better!

"... If you add giva meat here, the flavor will break"

After answering that way, Vulcus laid his eyes down.

"No, but if you adjust the amount of vanilla, or... would it also be possible to reconcile it with both Lillione and Giva... originally Giva meat is also an ingredient that goes well with Tarapa... right. Maybe it's worth working on."

"Yeah. I'm sorry if I got you in trouble"

"I'm not in any trouble. It was an extremely interesting suggestion."

Then Vulcan turned his eyes back on me.

"Whatever, keep tasting. Your Fuwano dishes are adjusted for you to taste at the same time as your juice dishes"

"Oh, yeah. Bye."

I cut a cute bun with a knife and a fork.

From the cross section, there is another peek at the cherry paste. I thought this might also be Mallory, but when I carried the sliced buns in half into my mouth - the flavour spread completely different from the appetizer.

This one is dominated by sweetness. Even the sweet lamb juice and cinnamon fragrance were felt in Mallory's mince when it was a sweet shrimp.

Besides, I also feel the sweetness of caron milk and milk fat on other steamed fuwano dough. In addition, Mallory's paste seemed to have even been refined with granular cheese.

It's a combination of shrimp and apple and cinnamon, milk and butter and cheese.

If you think about it normally, it seems to be a very harmonious combination.

but it was as delicious as a small spilled treat.

Without Mallory, it's a combination that usually works as a confection. But this only makes Mallory the subject of flavor - so it was strange to me that it was well established.

Still, this goes really well with tarapa soup.

It is sweet as sweet as a confection, but harmonious with the flavored soup of seafood. I was kind of comfortable being turned into a fox.

(Roy really is a big deal to think about getting Vulcan's arm shown up close every day like this and even taking it in there my way)

The Roy was quietly eager to see us at the end of his disciples' table.

The power of the eyes is strong even though it looks like it is slowly wearing off. It's like we're staring at what we've felt, how we've spoken of Vulcan cooking, and how we've never missed it.

"They really all taste great. Every time I eat a Vulcan dish, I think strongly of the word harmony."

"Cooking is a crystal of flavor harmony, so I guess that's the natural story. With me, I feel a definite harmony in the cuisine made by Lord Asta."

"No, I'm not even under Vulcan's feet. It's an unfamiliar fish dish today, so I'm very worried it's going to disappoint Varcus"

"Really? My chest was pounding in anticipation, and I couldn't sleep last night."

Varcus today was always more and more enthusiastic.

but his face is so miserable that he can even see him sleeping.

Raina-Lou and Sheila-Lou, as well as Yun-Sudra and Tour-Din, praised Vulcan cuisine. Having also come a lot immune to the intricate flavors of the Varcus stream, they did not hesitate to admit that these dishes were delicious. Only one, Malfira-Naham, just commented, "Sh, shh, it's amazing," and then the two sentences don't seem to carry on.

"Now let me serve you this dish. Please wait a moment."

Now we're going to have a meal together.

As the juice dish was turned from it, Varcus spilled a "oh" sigh.

"That's what I knew by the fragrance during cooking, but it was still this dish,"

"Yes, specially tailored curry."

"And because we are forbidden to use veterinary and bird meat today..."

"Yes, it will be curry with seafood"

It was a long time ago, a dedication in which Varcus expressed interest.

That was only because it was the day we unveiled Curry Buckwheat, which we conceived as the use of Black Fuwano - an event that took place nine months before the foothold.

"I was hoping to have it for Varcus someday, but I haven't had a chance to really taste the seafood ingredients... sorry to keep you waiting so long"

"... were you remembering the words I uttered?

"Of course it is. Because I think it's a real honor for Varcus to be so interested in my cooking."

Varcus remained faceless and softly slurred himself.

Which priority should I give to taking a seat and holding my hand, or to ascertaining the taste of the dish in front of me? I don't even look worried like that. Since the meal had already been served, I decided to laugh "go ahead".

"Enjoy. I know it's still awkward, but it's the best dish I've ever had."

I repeat, I am not used to the treatment of seafood on this land. To cover it, I decided to have an intense flavor of curry.

Seafood curry is served as a juice dish, fuwano dishes are baked potatoes instead of nan, and appetizers are a simple salad for chopsticks.

Baked Poitan prepares three varieties, each of which is braised with Gamma cheese, meermoo and dried aloo into the dough.

The dried aloe is the taste of dried fruit strawberries that are not sweet enough, but it was not surprisingly compatible with the seafood curry, so it was used. This challenging dish is slightly sweetened with vanilla that resembles cinnamon and even uses ingredients like coconut milk that have never been used before.

But still, for eating it as a stand-alone dish, it would have been too small a craftsmanship.

This time, however, the practice of serving three dishes at the same time was recognized. It was decided that seafood curry would be the best contribution.

Appetizers are also sweet.

This and other vegetables were just lightly boiled with the fruit juice of the seal and slight vanilla.

The types of vegetables include onion meal aria, tomato meal tarapa, carrot meal eneon, paprika meal ma pra, and zucchini meal chan. This was a reference to a salad I had spoken of at a specialty Indian curry store called Kathumbal.

Although spicy vanilla is also used in this salad, the sourness of the fruit juice of the seal stands ahead of it. It is one way to rest your tired tongue in the curry.

"I think baked poitains will taste good, whether they alternate with curry or hit curry. I hope you like it."

Roy and Siri-Low and others were really pinching up the baked poitan with their fantastic faces. Varcus and Tartumai are faceless, and it's always the same that the bozzle is a glitzy look.

If it's "Giva Curry," everyone has spoken of it. Bozzles and the like had business coming out of the Inn Town once every few months, so each time they brought home the food from the stalls until the Vulcas' minute.

Varcus was blind to baked poisons and salads and only spooned seafood curry.

Like me just now, it is like saying only the juice first.

That's how Varcus, who put Seafood Curry in his mouth, stopped moving with his eyes in the void.

According to my memory, Varcus should have been such a fast eater - I don't really try to mouth the lid eye.

If you didn't care about the flavoring, I was about to worry, and Tartumai turned around on Varcus.

"Varcus, are you sure you're up to it?

"... Yes, did you say something?

"Lord Asta is worried because Varcus has stopped moving"

That said, Turtumai smiled all the time.

It was probably the first time I ever saw this old man smile.

"Watching Vulcus make his mind squeal like that is really a crack job. You like this dish."

It doesn't fit with the words "I like it, etc."

Thus Vulcus ate the ingredients with his lid's mouth, and next, each of the three varieties of poitane was eaten in a curry.

At the end of the day, he looks back at me cursorily.

"Lord Asta, this dish... has changed the usual dishes and the distribution of vanilla?

"Yes, it's just fine-tuning, but I intend to adjust the amount to fit the seafood ingredients"

"... that in just two days?

"Yes, yesterday we were going to fight vanilla and seafood dry for almost the entire day"

I used to make this dish with dried seafood that could be delivered from Wang Du.

Not only fish and seagrass, but also seashells that have hardly ever been used before, and the dry matter of Mallory, and creatures similar to octopuses, are still bursting.

Among them, it was the seafood that was to assume a fairly large role.

This is a splendidly sized seafood called scallops, which was carefully returned with water over the course of one night, resulting in really splendid ingredients and stock. When it came to the elegant and savoury taste of the returned water, it was thought that it would be comparable to the finest scalloped scallops.

Using such splendid stock in curry is a luxury story.

but it was definitely this seafood stock that was supposed to support the foundation of this dish.

Of course, the dry matter of creatures similar to Mallory and Octopus also shows a definite presence as an ingredient. They didn't use fresh fish here, and the vegetables had been finely chopped, so the protagonists of the ingredients were themselves.

Plus, I use Tarapa very carefully for Curry Lou.

This dish is finished only with dried water and red mammalian fruit liquor, caron's milk, and the water and air that comes from tarapa.

After that, Myrmu and Kerr root are also used to season the flavor so that the seafood flavor does not become a bad effect. And, as Varcus pointed out, it was also the feather that fine-tuned the herb formula of curry vegetables.

"This is a great flavor. I wonder if adding just one more ingredient can bring perfect harmony"

To what Varcus said, I didn't say goodbye, I was a little nervous.

"Thank you for your excessive words.... Actually, there were ingredients you wanted to try, but you couldn't get them"

Varcus narrowed his eyes to sleep.

"... may I ask what ingredient that was?

"Yes. I can't be sure, but if you got the caron milk butter, you wanted to give it a try -"

Varcus stood up, rattling his chair.

"Why didn't you speak to me?

"Huh? What is it?

"If it is caron's milk butter, I make it in my own cooking. Speak up and we could deliver as much as we want."

"Hey, calm down, Varcus"

It was Roy, not me, who raised his voice that way.

"Shouldn't we taste this dish more closely now than that? If you're blurry, the heat will escape and the flavor will fade."

Varcus, staring at me with a sleepy look, took one sigh and then lowered his back.

"I accidentally disturbed it. During the tasting, I'm sorry."

"Yes, no. It's an honor to have Varcus say that."

Answering that way, I was rather puzzled. I wish Varcus would be happy, but I didn't anticipate any intense reaction so far.

Varcus carries his leftover dishes in his mouth. But it stops moving from mouth to mouth, so even though it's a small amount for tasting, it's hard to finish eating. Raina-Lou and the others stared at how Varcus looked like that.

"... I think it would be a really great story if you said you devised this in two days."

And Roy told me that instead of Varcus, who had been silent.

"You used a lot of fish and seagrass dried food even in Giva dishes. Was shellfish, mallory, or nunympa sneaking around in the shadows?

"I wonder if you mean those lots of legged creatures? No, this is the first time I've used all the ingredients in earnest, as abruptly as I used them sometimes."

"So you're saying there were ingredients similar to those in your hometown"

"Yeah. Not exactly the same, though."

The dry foods of the nugnompah creatures looked close to octopus, but tasted like sulume. However, the thickness of the feet was about that of a human finger, so when I put it back in water, I like the texture quite a bit. When it comes to octopus, it's like octopus, when it comes to squid - what an elusive taste.

Of course, even seafood resembles scallops, but not scallops themselves. Perhaps rubbing the curry with scallop stock will not create this kind of taste. It was a fortunate coincidence that this seafood stock matched the curry and was the result of a trial and error.

"Sure, I think this guy is a great cook. … but if you say so, it was originally a dish with a great finish."

And, Roy frowned so much that he wore something, looking back at his silent master.

"I'm not even in the middle of eating. I didn't feel that big a difference between the original dish with giva meat and... for Varcus, didn't I?

Varcus looked back at Roy after putting aside a beating freak.

"Indeed, the dish called Him, made by Lord Asta, was a great finish from the beginning. But the curry of Giva meat I had before… felt something, something, lost."

"Lost, is it?

"Yes, as if Lord Asta himself hadn't yet found a place to reach… were those strays slightly disturbing harmony?

I thought about it a lot and then I hit my knee.

"If you ask me, I have something in mind. In fact, there was a part of me that was wondering if I could finish it."

"Hmm. Is the cause still unknown?

"No. Actually, it was clear from the beginning. Originally, in my hometown house, I used to eat ingredients similar to Chaska with curry. Curry eaten with ingredients similar to baked potatoes should be completely different, depending on the amount of vanilla and how it is made."

Needless to say, that was the difference between a Japanese-style curry based on British cuisine and a real Indian curry.

"I finished my curry long before I knew Shaska. But what seems to me to be the taste of my hometown was the curry to eat with the chaska...... I wanted to bring it to the taste of my hometown as much as possible, taking into account its compatibility with the baked Poitan. This time, the flavor was assembled as a top priority from the start, so maybe there's a difference around it."

"I see," then Varcus looked loosely at Roy.

No, its eyes are like passing through Tartumai and staring at three others evenly. Siri-Low puts up his spine and Bozzle smiles with some regret.

"But the three of you were supposed to be talking about Chaska by the woods?

"Yeah, that was excellent. … well, if you think about it right now, it might have been the best thing you ever wanted to eat."

Varcus' gaze is fixed on Roy who replied.

"If you were eating his finished product first, wouldn't it be natural to not feel the difference with him today?"

"If you ask me, you're right. But before Varcus checked his compatibility with the baked Poitan, he decided he was great today, didn't he? So, does the accompaniment matter?

"So it seems that the previous disturbance in his harmony was caused by Lord Asta's loss. If Lord Asta, who obtained the Chaska, made it in consideration of its compatibility with Chaska, it must have been completed alone."

"What? So he's selling it in the street, and he wants to serve it at that feast, and it tastes different?

That was a word directed at me, so I gave him a nod, "Yeah."

"A little bit, but I was fine-tuning it. The curry we sell in the stalls is flavored to suit the grilled Poitan, so I couldn't help but feel at home when feasting with Chaska."

"So I used Giva meat - it should have been done too. Can't you tell the difference?

To Varcus, who inquires lightly, Roy said yes.

"I couldn't tell.... Even Siri-Low and Bozzle didn't say that."

"Right. At that time, I was distracted by the taste of Chaska, so I couldn't think of a change in him."

Instead of a bozzle answering with his head on, Siri-Low was dropping his shoulder disappointingly.

"I'm just ashamed of my uncertainty. I feel heartily thoughtless…"

"Oh, no, wait a minute. Even if it came to the taste of my hometown, it was really fine-tuned, wasn't it? I didn't even change the allocation of vanilla..."

I panicked and shook my mouth, but Varcus shook his head "No".

"If Lord Asta had thought that there was no stray and no shortage of ingredients, I'm sure the dish would have been completed. I am truly sorry that I was unable to be present on the spot."

"That's because Vulcan's body is vulnerable to dust and crowds, isn't it?"

As Roy glanced back, Varcus narrowed his eyes again.

"What is the word that gives you the mouth of the finished dish of Lord Asta, before me?

"Don't say that like a child. I was able to eat a fine meal today, okay?"

"This Him has not yet been completed. It's missing caron's milk butter."

"Then he might have been missing something at the feast, too. Asta just hasn't noticed."

"Yes," I decided to follow up, too.

"I'm just thinking about reviewing all the dishes right now. With regard to curry, I'm sure we'll be fine-tuning it again. In that sense, it's not finished yet."

"… So I didn't even use this seafood - it's not finished yet, either?

"Of course it is. Anyway, you only had two days to prepare. Not only is there not enough butter, but I'm also wondering if there are any other things that should be reworked."

Varcus sighed, "Oh," with a strangely cleavage of expression.

"I was wondering if I valued Lord Asta more rightly than anyone else... and still, perhaps not enough at all"

"That's not true. Oh, my God, I'm only half a man."

"I was to be made to realize in this room that the word was true."

Varcus closed his eyelids and turned up as if begging forgiveness in heaven.

"Lord Asta was that young, and I was wondering if the other 80% would be finished cooks... you must be half an age appropriate person. You may still only be about 50% complete... and given that, it's enough to be horrible"

"Does that mean that when Asta is alone, she won't be able to fathom Varcus either?

When Roy raised his voice that way, Siri-Low looked back at you with a tremendous eye.

But Roy never lets Siri-Low's mouth open with his hands up with a resolute face.

"You said publicly that one day Asta could be a good enemy. If you're a favorite enemy with 20% more growth, 50% more. Then you can't be fat, can you?

"... it's as comfortable as they're taking a fried leg, but well, that's how it's calculated"

Varcus opened his eyes and looked at Roy with a blurred look.

"But when Lord Asta is finished as a cook, it doesn't necessarily mean I'm staying in the same place. A cook is one who loses power every time he gets older… Fortunately, my tongue has not yet shown decay"

"I'm relieved to hear that. You're my master."

Roy showed more white teeth.

It is unusual for Roy to smile like this. Or Roy, whose expression is a rich type, but whose smile hardly ever shows.

Siri-Low also finally extinguishes the anger fire with it and looks back at Varcus. That's how I found myself there as the muddy master as usual, breathing in relief.

"Anyway, this was an extremely delicious dish. Time will be up, so let's serve the next dish."

With such words, Vulcus rises; the four disciples were, once again, in a state of temper.
