In the middle of the round table was a large plate. What was in the plate?
"...... college sweet potatoes?"
Yes, it was a sweet potato deep-fried in oil and covered with molasses. ...... In other words, it looked a lot like a college sweet potato.
"Hmm? A dai gaku imo?"
Saki overheard Jin's muttering and said.
"Oh, yeah. That's what we call it where I come from.
"That's funny. <
Saki takes a piece of takaimo in front of her on a plate. In the meantime, the attendant maid of honor was pouring tea for the guests.
"Jin, this is called here. Bertsche has always been good at making it. She has been making it for me for a long time.
"...... Yes, it's delicious. It is filled with Miss Berthe's love for giving Reinhardt good food.
"Oh, I'm so embarrassed."
Bertsche giggles at Saki's line. Saki had already put the third one in her mouth.
"I think these would be delicious with maple syrup," Jin mutters as he eats them.
Jin mutters as he eats.
Not only molasses, but also honey and maple syrup are sometimes used. His advice was accepted by everyone present.
"I see! Maple syrup! Sure, it would be good with maple syrup!"
"We still have some itopo that's just been fried, so I'll give it a try."
I heard that sweet potatoes are called "itopo".
By the way, Reiko was not present at the meeting as she was following Aalu by Jin's instruction, but there was a covert SP (Special Purpose Unit) escorting Jin in the shadows instead. One of them, <>, was reporting the situation to the old man.
Needless to say, the "Itopo" or sweet potato-like creature was found and sent to Horai Island under the direction of the old man.
"Oh! This is also delicious!"
"The sweetness of the itopo and the maple syrup is indescribable."
"Thank you, Jin-sama, for telling us about it."
Reinhardt was delighted, Saki enjoyed the taste, and Bertsche thanked Jin.
The tea party ended peacefully.
