Chapter 391: The King and Queen Are Exhausted!
Time flew by in the midst of Count Durt's gags, and soon the fat brother had prepared the first course and had it served by the attendant.
The first course is the French fried foie gras, which is also an appetizer that will whet your appetite. The foie gras was fried golden brown by the already skilled fat brothers, and from time to time bursts of aroma bubbled up.
Whether it is the color or aroma, this golden pan-fried foie gras is very tempting. After a simple pre-dinner prayer and thanking God, Louis XII took his knife and fork and reached for the sliced foie gras. Then, put the forked foie gras slices in your mouth......
Soon, Louis XII's mouth was filled with an explosive sensation of tenderness, the tenderness of foie gras, and the sourness of orange juice...... It constantly stimulates Louis XII's taste buds......
"This ...... It's delicious......" Louis XII's eyes lit up and he stretched out his knife and fork again......
Count Durt, who had a greedy appearance before, honestly did not make any other moves at this time. Mainly, he didn't dare to rob Louis XII......
However, he knew that the fat brothers would do more than just make a dish of fried foie gras. So, he advised:
"Your Majesty, don't worry, there is still delicious food in the back, no worse than this!"
After eating three pieces of foie gras, Louis XII remembered that Queen Anne was still on the side. So, he beckoned:
"Queen, you eat too, it's delicious!"
Queen Anne looked at Louis XII speechlessly, and said in her heart, "You have eaten all three pieces, and then you remember that the old lady has not eaten ......."
However, after tasting the delicious taste of fried foie gras, Queen Anne was not reserved anymore, and continued to stretch out her knife and fork, eating elegantly, but in large quantities......
After a while, the second course also came up, which was truffle salad, which was also an appetizer. The taste of truffles is very popular. It's just that truffles, especially French black truffles, don't look good. The French had never eaten truffles in their time, so Louis XII and Queen Anne looked at the salad made of black truffle slices in the same appearance, and they were a little confused.
So, Giovanni (oh no, it should be called Totti now), the boss who came with the truffle himself, introduced:
"This thing is called truffle, and it is a very precious ingredient in Italy, very expensive, but also very delicious, known as the gold of ingredients. In Italy, both the pope and other great nobles are very fond of this cuisine. ”
This flattery immediately aroused the great interest of Louis XII and Queen Anne. After all, the Italian aristocracy loves to eat, and there must be no mistake. Still, the cautious Louis XII looked at the Count of Durt. Count Durt nodded, apparently he had tasted it yesterday and thought it was delicious.
So Louis XII and Queen Anne carefully forked a piece of truffle and put it in their mouths......
Probably the loose air was born to the liking of Europeans, and soon the eyes of Louis XII and Queen Anne lit up......
So Louis XII directly stretched out his knife and fork, and Queen Anne gracefully extended it...... But the result is the same, both the king and the queen love the truffle salad......
Seeing that the king and queen had eaten a lot, and that the queen liked to eat very much, Totti smiled innocently. In the eyes of others, it is probably because the food he makes is liked by the king and queen. Only Totti herself understands that it was because Queen Anne ate a lot of truffle salad......
Because, the big fat Giovanni, put the birth control pill that Marlin gave him in the truffle salad. Truffles are already delicious, and King Louis XII and Queen Anne of France are eating them for the first time, and even the most savvy diners will not be able to eat the contraceptive pill in it. Because, they have never eaten truffles, how do they know what the original taste is?
In fact, the contraceptive pill produced by an alchemist is a colorless and odorless crystal that tastes very light when put into water. But in order to prevent it from being eaten, Giovanni carefully put the contraceptive pill in the already heavy truffle. In this way, the average person will not notice it at all.
Giovanni was happily relieved to see that the queen had eaten a lot of truffles – if she liked it......
Their task is to give the queen a contraceptive pill, and if the queen doesn't like to eat their food, it's over, and the task is not to be completed.
Fortunately, Queen Anne liked it and almost grabbed it with Louis XII. In this way, it will be easier to do tasks later......
After a while, the truffle salad was almost eaten, and the next delicacy, caviar, was brought by Tony the second fat, and was taken by the court attendants and placed in front of the king and his wife. On the first day the fat brothers entered the palace, they were naturally not allowed to get close to the king and queen, and they spoke far away, and were watched by the palace guards. Therefore, the dishes they cook are ultimately served to the king and queen by others. Even, when they speak, they are accompanied by an interpreter. After all, the fat brother was also a scumbag back then, and it seemed impossible to learn French quickly. Therefore, for now, they can only rely on an interpreter to talk to the royal couple.
This time the food was served more slowly than the last time, because the big fat "Totti" asked the second fat to be a little more rubble, just to wait for the king and queen to finish the truffle salad. In particular, it is necessary for the queen to eat enough truffle salad to achieve the effect of contraception.
Sure enough, when the second fat was served, a plate of truffles had already been eaten.
Unlike the first two dishes, the caviar dish Queen Anne recognized. Because, the Duchy of Brittany is a northwestern coastal country, and Anne has eaten fish since she was a child, and naturally she has also eaten caviar. Only Louis XII, who was born in Orleans in central France, never ate caviar.
However, this plate of caviar, according to the strict regulations of the later generations of French people in Marin's memory, made of high-grade caviar, is made from the roe of a large sturgeon over 60 years old, a pregnant female fish weighing more than 12 pounds, and after a short period of skillful processing, it becomes the highest grade caviar.
In this era, there are still many sturgeons in large and small rivers in Europe, and there is a high possibility of encountering old sturgeons. So, although caviar is delicious, it is much easier than truffles.
Caviar is very popular because of the use of the highest quality ingredients and the high level of processing that Marin emphasized. The big fat man gave Louis XII and Queen Anne spoons for them to use.
The caviar was very popular with the most noble couples in France, and after eating it, Louis XII and Queen Anne both used spoons to dig into the caviar and put it directly into their mouths...... Fortunately, the amount of caviar is very large, otherwise the king and queen would have grabbed the fight......
After just three dishes, King Louis XII and Queen Anne of France, their stomachs were round, obviously holding on......
