The most distinctive thing about Italian breakfast sausage is that it is added to the ingredients.

The taste of fish marram is sweet, which can polish the flavor of the sausage, and it has a slightly pungent bitter aroma, which adds depth to the flavor while relaxing the nerves, which can relieve headaches and insomnia. Especially when drunk after meals, it can help people sleep soundly at night. Not only that, but it also removes toxins from the body, aids digestion, and can also stimulate appetite when drinking when you don't have an appetite.

Known as a symbol of happiness, it was customary to wear marjoram crowns on the heads of married men and women in ancient Greek and Roman times. The spicy aroma of marjoram has long been believed to be good for health, and every medicine store sells dried leaves. Marjoram has been used as a spice since ancient times, and it is suitable for tomato and meat dishes, and when added to the breakfast intestines, it can indeed awaken people's vitality, and even Jean, who is a little tired, feels full of energy at this time.

After breakfast, Sikong Yao smiled and said, "Okay, let's start construction, target, flame ice cream!" ”

Jean nodded in agreement, "Well, let's go!" ”

After the experience of the last time, this time Sikong Yao made a flame cake obviously a lot easier, plus the upper limit of the breakthrough and this time the amount of small ice cream tried to use is not very large, so it can only be described as handy, the use of vanillin, but also successfully solved the problem of the flavor being masked, under Jean's suggestion, Sikong Yao even dared to use a red wine with a stronger aroma to add flavor, because the vanilla pure powder is very powerful. As a result, the taste was not masked by the red wine, and the flame ice cream was finally formed!

On this basis, Sikong Yao also improved the recipe of ice cream, and analyzed and regulated the refrigeration function of the freezer, and the oven, the mastery of the freezer is also a necessary skill for the pastry chef, and those who can use the tools reasonably can definitely make their desserts icing on the cake.

The night before, Jean had adjusted his mindset to make a cake that was impeccable in terms of taste, humidity and elasticity.

Jean said with relief: "Now I can finally have a good rest." ”

Sikong Yao also smiled and said, "Hmm." Take a nap. At two o'clock in the afternoon, we will continue to gather here to make the flame ice cream that we will use tonight. ”

After the two of them agreed on a time, they went back to their rooms to rest. Although Sikong Yao and Jean coincidentally had the same idea in their hearts to want to race against time to learn. However, the so-called speed is not reached. Necessary rest is also very important, and if you can't combine work and rest, it will often be half the effort. Therefore, both people are able to adjust their mentality and regulate their impetuous emotions.

In the evening, the Tuscan farmstead was filled with festivities, and the Medici family once again held a birthday party, which in the West was originally reserved for kings, but gradually spread to the people, and the common people could also hold birthday parties.

Westerners' birthday parties, birthday cakes are indispensable, and they are all beautifully decorated, and candles of the same age as the birthday owner must be inserted, there are many people who participate in this professional pastry chef assessment, Sikong Yao and Jean are responsible for ice cream work, and some pastry chefs have chosen to cook the cake of this banquet, although it is very beautiful, but it has never been able to satisfy the owner of Eric Farm.

At the beginning of the party, the colorful lights in the house were turned off, the birthday candles were lit, and everyone sang the song "Happy Birthday to You" to express their blessings.

The daughter of the owner of Eric, dressed in a pure white evening gown and like an elf, held a wishing stone in her hand, silently made a good wish, and then blew out all the candles. Then the lights can be turned on, and the host will cut the cake to the cheers of the audience and share a happy birthday.

The "birthday star" generally has to cut the cake for the first time, unless it is a child who is too young, and the parents can do it for them.

And the so-called birthday wishing stone is said to come from the Bible? Old testament? Exodus. Aaron the priest wore a protective cuirass with four rows of 12 different gems, representing the 12 tribes of ancient Egypt. Later, these 12 gemstones evolved into 12 birthstones, representing the 12 months of birth, such as those born in May wearing emeralds and those born in September wearing sapphires. They believe that wearing their birthstones will bring good luck, and they will naturally become wishing stones for birthdays.

In the West, although the birthday customs of different countries are similar, different cultural traditions will still produce different birthday etiquette, some of which are strange and some of which are interesting.

There is no special custom for American birthdays, and most children will have a birthday cake with candles on their birthdays, and the birthday celebrant will make a wish on the lit candle and then blow out the candle. If he blows out all the candles in one go, then it is believed that his wish will come true.

And most birthday cakes in Germany are made with chocolate. For birthday parties, hot chocolate is also available. Many German homes have wooden rings that are used to light birthday candles. These rings are large enough to fit over a piece of birthday cake and have many holes for candles, allowing as many candles to be inserted each time they are used.

The British often say that "life starts at 40", so when many Brits turn 40, family and relatives and friends will throw a big birthday party for him. However, there are also strange customs in some parts of the UK. People will hide coins, thimbles and other small objects inside the birthday cake, which will make people's hearts flutter. This custom dates back to the Middle Ages, when it was believed that a birthday was a blessing of good luck, a coin for good luck, and a thimble for never getting married. Of course, diners will be informed in advance that there is a foreign object hidden in the birthday cake to prevent accidental ingestion and bad consequences.

In Spain, it is said that people don't grow old again if they forget their birthday. Therefore, people replace birthdays with feasts, i.e., "name" days. They also give the name of the protector deity on the day of the sacrifice to the birthday child.

In the Netherlands, in addition to activities such as blowing out candles, guests also participate in a special event for children's birthday parties. At that time, all the guests' gifts were hung on a rope, and the guests had to fumble blindfoldedly until each of them touched a gift. When the birthday cake is brought in, the children will sing: "Lang Ziou Heyez Lewin." This is the expression of the Dutch children "I wish him a long life".

In Finland, on the eve of their child's birthday, parents set up a birthday table in their child's room with flowers in the center, a birthday cake and gifts from family and friends. The next morning, the whole family comes to the children's room and sings a birthday song to wake up the sleeping child to celebrate him, but there is no fixed birthday song, and each family can choose as they please. Then the child has breakfast in bed, and sometimes he gets a special birthday flower crown.

If an Australian family is near the sea, the whole family swims in the sea on the child's birthday. After swimming, the whole family has a picnic on the beach to celebrate the child's birthday.

On their birthdays, children in Israel sit on chairs decorated with flowers and green leaves, surrounded by relatives and friends, and lift them several times when they are old. Mexicans, on the other hand, at birthday parties, blindfold their birthday children and beat the container hanging from the roof with a stick until it is opened. At this time, all kinds of candies and toys in the container fell down one after another, and people rushed forward to grab them. Locals believe that this can bring good luck.

The most interesting is the Irish custom of "birthday headbanging". Parents should lift their birthday child's head down and gently hit the floor, bump it once at the age of one, bump it a few times when it is a few years old, and bump it more often to indicate good luck. In some parts of North America, "birthday beating" is prevalent, but the spanking is a spanking, a one-year-old spanking, and the number of beatings is calculated according to the age of the birthday child. Then, you have to make the necessary prayers such as "grow up", "live", "eat something", and "get married in the future".

Compared with the above interesting birthday customs, some countries have exceptionally solemn birthdays, such as Denmark and Norway in Northern Europe. In addition to major public festivals in these countries throughout the year, if you see a national flag hanging at the door of your house, it means that someone in the family must celebrate your birthday; If an important person in the country celebrates his birthday, the national flag is hung on the streets and alleys. On his birthday, a Norwegian child dances with his dance partner in front of the whole class, and the rest of the class sings birthday songs to bless him.

Whether in China or in the West, when attending a birthday banquet or party, you must give the host a birthday gift. However, how the host behaves when accepting a birthday gift is diametrically opposed to Chinese and Western customs. Chinese generally should not open gifts on the spot, otherwise they will be suspected of being impatient and greedy, which is rude. Westerners, on the other hand, open the gift in front of the gift-giver, believing that this is a sign that the host likes the gift from the guest, and the guest will feel relieved and happy about it. From these subtleties, we can appreciate the differences between Chinese and Western cultures.

A group of guests or friends of the birthday boy, or business partners of the Medici family, all kinds of celebrities attended this banquet, which was supposed to be a prosperous time, but Eric was embarrassed, because he clearly felt that the topic began to deviate.

"It's still the same as before, it's not very special."

"yes, it's just a process, at least you should come out with something different, right?"

"It's not like that, Italian vanilla, Florentine steak, nice cakes and fruits, the Medici family is also in decline." (To be continued......)
