Chapter 366: CH 366

Although Norn-sama’s descent happened during the wedding, the ceremony somehow ended peacefully and the guests returned to the Lodge.

After a short intermission, the wedding reception opened.

Inside the kitchen, Elves, Beastkin, and Humans were in a state of war.

「Umm, the main will be Dragon Steak alla Rossini[1], right?」

I took out the dragon fillets from my Item Box and handed it over to the Elven Head Chef.

The dragon steaks was cut up to single serving sizes and grilled. The grilled dragon steaks were then stored in the magic bag I made.

That magic bag doesn’t stop time, but it had been enchanted with a time delay effect, so the steaks would rest with just enough time.

Another Human staff sautéed the Storm Bird liver. The liver of the Storm bird was very similar to foie gras.

I made the sauce. Madeira wine was mixed into the fond de veau and reduced. For the final touches, I mixed butter into it to emulsify the sauce and I tried tasting it for flavor.

「Okay, this is it.」

I sprinkled a bit of salt onto it to complete it, then handed it over to the head chef.

Still, to be able to make madeira wine in the Sanctuary, the Dwarves are terrifying.

To make madeira wine, grape juice undergoes a yeast fermentation, then ethanol concentrate is mixed in to fortify it and kill off the yeast, forcefully stopping the fermentation. Since the fermentation is stopped, the sugar content of the grape juice remains, so the sweet wine was made.

The current sanctuary produces red wine, white wine, champagne and the like, madeira wine, ale, whiskey, and brandy. I knew Dwarves obviously had it, but Elves also had a similar passion for it.

When I attended my friend’s wedding in my past life, I remember being served beef filets topped with foie gras alla rossini at the reception, so I decided that this would be the main course at our wedding reception.

「I leave the rest to you.」

「「「Yes!」」」

After checking the hors d’oeuvres and fish dish, I headed to the reception venue in a hurry.

Like in a Japanese reception, there’s no bride and groom entrance, so I quickly entered the venue and sat beside my now wives.

That was the signal for the tables to be set.

Champagne was served to the guests and after Margrave Volton led the toast, the meal began.

◇

In one of the tables at the reception hall, Vanga and Martha were wearing the clothes provided by Takumi. Sitting on the same table were Papeck, company head clerk Thomas, Volton Adventurers Guild Barack and Hans, Volton Margravery’s chamberlain Xervus-san.

In the next table sat Akane, Lulu, Laeva, Kaede, and the representatives of the Sanctuary’s inhabitants.

Near them were Berkut and the Aligerous Tribe, Queen Fraal, her secretary Ryuka, and the representatives of the rare races in the Sanctuary.

「Dear, look over there. It shines gold and see through.」

「A, ahh, small bubbles are floating to the top.」

Martha and Vanga were perplexed seeing the golden tinged liquid when they were served champagne. Then Papeck who was sat next to them said what it was.

「Vanga-san, Martha-san, this is called sparkling wine, a variety of wine.」

Though he would have liked to get a hold of more, Papeck smiled bitterly.

Though there were inquiries from all over the continent about the liquor produced by the Sanctuary, even the Papeck Company was unable to procure a large stock of it.

On the table, an assortment of bright colored appetizers were being enjoyed by the guests. This was no different for the royalty, nobility, and prominent company presidents either. Everyone was equally smacking their lips at the food served and were wowed by the delicacy of the white wine.

「Thomas, there is a possibility we could obtain the recipe for this cuisine, right?」

「……perhaps. Master and Iruma-dono have a connection, so it may be alright.」

「Yeah. Let’s try asking so the people outside the sanctuary could delicious food.」

Takumi didn’t know that the style of serving dishes one at a time like with French courses, was not typical in this world. This world typically serves large quantities of food in large platters all at once.

Even Takumi didn’t think too deeply about when he ate at Margrave Volton’s and at Earl Rockford’s, so he ate without any malaise.

Even the restaurants downtown had no course meal style, just main course plus wine or ale.

Takumi quickly moved up in Volton and obtained a house and workshop early on, then entrusted all the daily necessities and meals to Maria, so because he didn’t eat out much nor had he gone out to eat at a high class restaurant, he did not realize this.

「Changing the alcohol to match the food is also superb.」

「Yes, food served in large platters are also good, but this style is also good.」

The dish in front of Papeck and Thomas were switched to a fish dish.

It was cooking that made the best use of the fish caught by the Mermaids at the west sea so it naturally left the people from inland cities and villages in a trance.

Footnotes:

1. The dish comprises a beef tournedos (filet mignon), pan-fried in butter, served on a crouton, and topped with a hot slice of fresh whole foie gras briefly pan-fried at the last minute. The dish is garnished with slices of black truffle and finished with a Madeira demi-glace sauce.[↩]

2. It should be pointed out that, technically “champage”, “madeira” and many other alcohols can only be called as such because they are produced in certain regions. Examples: Champagne can only be produced in the champagne regions of France, otherwise it is only a “sparkling wine”.
