Chapter 138 Wuhu! The potatoes are cooked! (Please subscribe!)
Everyone was still a little confused until Bruno left.
This is simply a miracle!
These three extremely high-yield crops seemed to have appeared out of thin air. If it weren't for the Earl's keen insight and extraordinary judgment, such high-yield crops would probably still be buried among countless plants...
My Lord Earl, you are truly a wise man!
While everyone was immersed in the high grain output and the Earl's great achievements, Bruno quietly picked up a dozen round potatoes and slipped away in a blink of an eye.
How could listening to a bunch of natives from another world flattering me be more interesting than eating! The thought of Shabi coming over with his face flushed with excitement, and then shouting in his high-pitched voice: "The Earl is such a wise man!"
Bruno felt a chill in his heart.
After returning to the castle, Bruno immediately went to the lord's kitchen with potatoes in his pocket.
In his previous life, potatoes were Bruno's favorite food! Whether it was beef stew with potatoes, mushroom and potato chicken, or French fries, hot and sour potato shreds, dry pot potato chips, or even potato chips added to grilled fish, they were all Bruno's favorite! So... the first thing to do after the potatoes were harvested was to indulge in a big meal!
Before Bruno left the lord's castle and went to the fields to harvest, he had already greeted the chefs in the lord's castle and asked them to prepare some fresh beef in advance.
Although oxen are extremely important to farmers, and people will not easily slaughter oxen, but... since I have brought high-yield crops such as potatoes, corn and sweet potatoes to Idar County and even to this world, then killing a cow to reward myself should not be too much, right? This is reasonable!
Moreover, although oxen were not easily slaughtered, that was only compared to civilians and serfs.
There are no such restrictions for the nobles, and they have always been proud of eating beef. If they hear that someone has eaten pork or something like that, they will be despised by others.
This is because the nobles and knights of the Norman Empire believed that the characteristics of food and the characteristics of people are inseparable.
So... eating meat, especially beef, can keep a warrior's bravery, and rare steak with blood streaks is considered the best food to keep a warrior's true nature! Even in some more traditional places such as the west and south of the Norman Empire, steak with blood streaks is considered a man's patent!
Not only can it only be enjoyed by male nobles, it can even only be prepared by male chefs and then served on the table by the knights' servants.
Although most of the nobles in the Norman Empire have neither bravery nor the blood of a warrior, but... who doesn't have a dream of becoming a great knight (not meaning a title)?
As for the Idar Territory where Bruno was, there were no such things! Because the only male chef in the lord's kitchen had been scolded by Bruno who had just traveled through time for his poor cooking skills, and then ran away in disgrace.
So... when Bruno just arrived outside the castle, he saw a fierce aunt with big breasts and fat buttocks holding a big machete, dragging a strong bull and chopping it left and right. After a few hits, she carried the bull, which died tragically, back.
Bruno: Of course, these are just small matters. As long as the potato stew can be made as quickly as possible, Bruno does not have the bad habits of the nobles of this era...
The fat lady in the kitchen had already mastered the cooking methods of various ingredients under Bruno's training. Therefore, although this round potato was the first time she had seen it, she was able to cook it as if it were a piece of cake.
So, it didn't take long before a big bowl of delicious potato stewed beef was served on the table.
Looking at the familiar dish, Bruno couldn't wait to take a big bite...
The freshly picked potatoes were stewed until they were fresh, soft and glutinous, and the beef was stewed to just the right degree, with the meat aroma overflowing, soft and tasty. But at the same time, the fresh beef also had the unique chewy texture of meat, so it tasted particularly comfortable to eat.
It smells so good...
However... it is a bit regrettable that... the climate conditions in the Norman Empire are not suitable for growing rice, so... there is no rice...
Potato stewed with beef and white bread may sound a little strange, but it tastes really good! For a moment, the whole banquet hall of the lord's castle was filled with the aroma of potato stewed with beef... so much so that the servants who were serving Bruno were also particularly greedy.
At this time, the chefs hurriedly served many new dishes, including French fries, dry pot potato chips, etc. After all...
Only children make choices. Since there are enough potatoes, Bruno will definitely try them all! This is a feast of potatoes, including salty and crispy French fries and sour and spicy potato shreds. Bruno felt full before he even ate a few of them...
Because after all, because potatoes contain a lot of starch, they can be used as a staple food in many cases.
"My Lord Earl, Admiral Mal Karen is here..."
At this moment, a servant from the castle came running over, fearing to disturb the Earl's meal. After a long while, he spoke cautiously.
"Let him in," said Bruno, as he tried to finish his goulash.
"yes."
then……
As soon as he entered the banquet hall of the lord's castle, Mal Karen smelled a strong fragrance in the air.
He looked closely and saw that the Earl was sitting alone in front of a spacious long oak table, and on the table were plates of delicious food that he had never seen before.
"Let's sit down and eat together..." Bruno glanced at Mal Karen, stuffed another large piece of beef into his mouth, and said.
"No, no," Mal Karen looked at the delicious dishes on the long table, waved his hand and said, "I just ate..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a gurgling sound coming from Mal Karen, which made Mal Karen blush.
But...the food looked really delicious! Finally, Mal Karen couldn't resist the temptation of these dishes and sat down at one side of the long table.
He picked up a pair of chopsticks rather clumsily, and then carefully picked up a piece of potato from the plate...
Mmm... Really delicious! I originally wanted to combine the two chapters into one to get a small climax, but it seems that the two 2k chapters can earn some coins by watching an extra ad, so, and...
