Capítulo 582: New Culture
ats ca prepared in ways unknown to many of them.
So of the sheep is boiled with herbs and spices, the sll alone is heavenly
so are roasted in clay pits buried beneath hot stones. The heat brings about the scent of the spices that seasoned these ats
So who have keen sense of sll could sll the garlic, onions and spices coming out from the heat
Aeryon looking at his guest smiles and nodded
“This is a good place to introduce these new plants and food and once they tasted it and knows it could be eaten and good they would probably would also trade these resources” Aeryon thought to himself
Aeryon do like feast.
But he would not make it so grand if not for the fact this is for special events.
And since he already decided to make a grand feast, it would be better for him to also gain so benefits.
This is the place where Aeryon also intend to introduce many of the food he had been growing before
Most of the things he grew are new to many of his people.
And while so of it has made its way to the table of the chiefs, there is still many that is only consud by him and his people in the palace
The reason is because so people did not know how to eat it and how to cook it.
The people of the Steppe have never been averse to trying sothing new as long as that sothing new could save their lives
It is their ability to adapt that made the Steppe strong.
But at the sa ti, there is also this tendency of not fixing things that are not broken
This feast is a good place for these people to try these foods, these plants and made them know how to cook it, how to eat it, how it tastes.
As long as these chiefs approve of its taste and use, they would use it and once they use it, their people would use it.
Of course, Aeryon also knows that the hard part of this is to assimilate it with the diet of the Steppe and serving it to the people here in this banquet in a way that would make them feel that this food could be used in their tribes.
“Oh, a horse dish” One of the chiefs exclaid and so people look toward the cooking area.
The horse that was slaughtered has now also been made into dishes, elegant as they have never seen it before
The horseat was cut think, seared quickly on iron plates, sprinkled with powdered herbs with the servants doing it beside the chief.
“Horse at could be cooked like this?” one of the chiefs said as he is eating one of the horse at full of relish. The servant beside him explain to him the na of the food.
It is horse sausage
It used the natural horse gut casings, salt, wild garlic, and Steppe herbs that have miraculous effect when used as seasonings.
As Aeryon make his chefs to delve on cooking matters, many of them tries all kinds of herbs to achieve the taste he wanted.
Aeryon himself did not know these herbs and recording the nas of these herbs have never been done before and different places called it different nas
It is only after this initiative of cooking started that the chef began recording the na of these herbs, determining which herbs could be used as seasoning, which herbs could act as poison, which herbs could act as dicine and after many experints, they have identified many herbs that could be used to act as a flavour enhancer.
Aeryon also created many smokehouses for his idea to create this horse sausages. But the at could also be air dried on wooden racks and then boiled in large cauldron.
This is the thod.
Not to ntion, that after boiling so of it could be fried.
For these chiefs, most of whom who co from small tribes or small clans, relishing the taste of the horse at they know but totally unfamiliar to them make them feel what it truly ans to be powerful and wealthy
Tayak is the primary at. But another one would be horses.
There are horses bred to fight in the plains but rarely there are horses bred to be eaten
Because a horse is not easy to be bred.
And only the rich and powerful could afford to slaughter horses for luxury rather than for fighting
Just like in Yan where it is very hard to slaughter cows and buffalos, in the Steppe, horses are only slaughtered in special occasions. It is not like in the world Aeryon co from where at is not a rare food to be eaten
“Delicious”
“The Kan really knows how to enjoy his life”
“Could the Kan eat such delicacy every day?” many of these chief and warriors utters such words. There is envy and awe in these words and exclamation.
And the soup made out from thick broth of herbs and the at also added to the taste and flavour.
There is also horse steak, thin horseat strips seared quickly on hot iron plates. So of them have hot iron plates.
On the side of this hot iron plates is the carving of wolves. These are reserved for the chief and honoured guest.
For the other warriors, they go to the many circles of fire all over the area where there is a flat stone heated in fire, then sprinkled with salt and onions
There is a certain refinent to this simple thod that impresses these warriors. Warriors are not picky eaters, but that does not an they did not know how to appreciate good food.
The warriors that did not yet have titles and is waiting for the high-ranking warrior to eat is looking at all of these foods could not take their eyes out of it and their nose could not help but sll all of this wonderful food.
Most of the chief that just eaten one of the few dishes that has been presented to them could never thought that a feast of the Kan would be this extravagant or that it would open them to a new world
Even in their most glorious and most powerful mont in the past, these chiefs have never been served with this kind of delicacy.
And it is not only about the food. It is also about the ambience of this entire place
there is lighting from the crystals and there is the lighting from the torches.
There is also these servers that stand not far away from them and would co to them when they have a question about the food.
The chiefs have never been served like this when eating.
In formal ceremony the servants were never this elegant.
Aeryon did not say anything but he only looks on and he smiles.
Aeryon infused so of his knowledge of the future to teach his servants on how to create this atmosphere, and to create many of the new dishes that is now presented to the people here
Then the next dishes is brought out.
Aeryon looking at it shakes his head
“it is a pity I did not really rember which order of food co out first.”
After all, Aeryon in the other world is not really soone who pays attention to this kind of thing and there were only a few tis where he goes to eat at a place that offers course al.
He also did not know what at is best paired with what wine. But he has so basic understanding of food.
As for the matter of salt, that is sothing he had found for himself. He did not yet want to share it to many people.
“But that salt deposit is also about to be depleted” Aeryon did not mind using the salt he had found because he also found out among the resources he had own; it also includes salt.
Aeryon shook his head and look at the next type of food that is brought out
There is also grand and bread.
Flat cakes of barley and millet were pressed think with crisped over coals
Most of the warriors and even the chiefs is accustod to hard bread, heavy loaves
But the bread that Aeryon had ordered to be made is smooth and so are crispy. It made one full while the bread itself seems to have certain saltiness to it.
Aeryon had managed to create cakes.
While this kind of food is not really sothing that is non-existent in the world as it could be seen in the court of far region of this world, for the Steppe chief in this part of the world, this is the first ti they see such food presented to them in such a way that made it look like so kind of heavenly delicacies that cos straight down from heaven
And the cakes is drizzled with honey and butter made from goat milk and assortnts of other ingredients that made the butter richer and add taste that has rarely been tasted before by the chiefs and the warriors that attend this feast
Sweetness rarely tasted in these harsh lands. And once people who rarely tasted sweetness and richness of such flavour began tasting it, it would never be the sa
