Chapter 329: Parfait Tasting
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
After completing the parfait, I immediately report to Elna-kaasan and Eleonora-neesan.Then, we decided to hold a tasting event in the dining room.「I’m looking forward to this ‘parfait’」
「Yes, I wonder what kind of sweets that is? I heard from Mina that it is something that is packed with dreams」
「Then, it may have a lot of cookies」
Elna-kaasan and Eleonora-neesan are already seated, while Nord-tousan and Sylvio-niisan have not yet arrived.
Since Mel is going to call for them, we just have to wait for those two.
I pay no attention to those two’s who are chatting happily while I wait quietly in my seat.
Mina’s words look like it has raised the hurdle even more, I wonder if it’s okay? It would be great if they don’t get angry after they eat it and found it not too tasty to their liking.
While I was having such thought, Mel pushed open the door and Nord-tousan and Sylvio-niisan entered the dining room.
Sylvio-niisan sits on the chair beside me while Nord-tousan is sitting at the head of the table as usual.
「Sorry for making you wait」
「Dear, is your work going well?」
「Yes, it’s fine. I’m done with the work and was at the point where I can take a break」
「You always said that though don’t work too hard, all right?」
「Thank you for worrying about me. Just a bit more and I will be able to do it slowly 」
「Then I will be looking forward to that time」
I felt like I already ate sweets even though I haven’t even eaten a parfait.
And it looks like Eleonora-neesan and Sylvio-niisan also feel the same as me since they have subtle expressions on their faces.
「So, they said we are going to have a ‘parfait’? What kind of sweets is that?」
「It’s like sweets inside a glass with a lot of fruits in a glass? Anyway, it will be faster to see it for yourselves. Mel, can you bring in the parfait now?」
「Understood. Come on, Mina, Sara, come in」
Maybe she already called them even without me asking her to, since as soon as Mell open the door, Sara and Mina entered while holding a tray with parfaits on them.
Though Sara is carrying the tray with a calm expression, Mina is strangely conscious of the parfaits and is nervous.
Seeing her like that makes me worried.
「Mina, are you all right?」
「I, I apologize, I’m nervous when I’m carrying sweets with this many ingredients in them」
「It’s okay, I will use Psychic only to protect the parfaits in an emergency」
「Eeeh!? That is reassuring but, I’m having a complicated feeling since the parfaits seem to be more important than me」
When I call out to her like that, Mina managed to bring the parfaits to the table without any problem, guess it had eased her nervousness.
「Ara, this is amazing. It has more gorgeousness that is on another level compared to the sweets being made until now. It’s so pretty」
「……it is really big in portion」
Looking at the parfaits lined up in front of them, Elna-kaasan looks happy seeing them, while Nord-tousan’s face twitches due to the volume.
That’s cause they have more impact and size to them compared to the sweets made to date.
「I wonder what are they made from? Are they made from bread and white cheese?」
「But it does not smell like cheese though? It is cold to the touch, so maybe it is similar to shaved ice?」
Eleonora-neesan and Sylvio-niisan are having a discussion while watching the glass’ profile.
Both of them are slightly off the mark though.
「There are a lot of strawberries on top, along with something white and fluffy thing I have never seen before. And there are also cookies and jam....we can expect something delicious from this」
「Elna-kaasan will be the strawberry parfait, Eleonora-neesan the grape one, and Nord-tousan and Sylvio-niisan are the orange parfait that suits everyone’s tastes」
「Okay」
The point here is for them not to tell me that I distribute them according to the size, but to their tastes.
Eleonora-neesan might not mind this kind of thing but, Elna-kaasan is fussy about this.
Elna-kaasan and Eleonora-neesan take the parfait with the big glass and Nord-tousan and Sylvio-niisan take the parfait with the smaller glasses while looking relieved.
Those two don’t have that big of a stomach to eat them, so they definitely won’t be able to eat their dinner if they were to have the big one.
If anything, I’m also someone who likes parfait, but the normal size one is enough for me.
I take the parfait that had been customized to my tastes, the one with the strawberries and oranges.
After we all have chosen the parfaits, Sara and Mina had also just finished distributing the spoons.
It’s just that, I’m a little unsure if the length of the spoon will be enough as a spoon for a parfait. And if the women’s group were to be pleased with the parfait, I’m sure Logan will immediately receive an order for long spoons.
「Well then, Al. I will eat this」
「Go aheadー」
After I reply to Nord-tousan, everyone begins to eat the parfaits.
「This is amazing. This ‘pudding’ is so soft and kind of bouncy」
Elna-kaasan says with a serious expression on her face while poking the pudding with her spoon.
「It’s true. It bounces back when you poke it with the spoon」
「It’s like a chilled slime」
Sylvio-niisan’s example is pretty cute.
In the meantime, Eleonora-neesan scooped up a big amount of them and brings it to her mouth, guess she prioritized eating rather than observing the parfait.
「Mmh!?」
Then Eleonora-neesan opens her eyes wide with the spoon still in her mouth and sits still. Then she slowly lowered her sight and take the pudding that is piled on the parfait.
「What is this! This is so jiggly and sweet!」
「Hey Eleonora, take the spoon out from your mouth before you speak. That is a bad manner, you know」
Elna-kaasan is absolutely right.
However, Eleonora-neesan is currently absorbed and continues eating the pudding, she no longer listens to her.
「I, is it that delicious?」
Perhaps Eleonora-neesan’s excitement has made Elna-kaasan unable to bear it any longer, Elna-kaasan also scoops the pudding with her spoon and put it into her mouth.
Elna-kaasan closes her eyes as she confirms the taste by herself, but then her eyes immediately open along with a surprised expression on those pupils.
「Oh my! What a delicious sweet taste! It melts on my tongue, and goes down your throat smoothly!」
That’s great. It looks like Eleonora-neesan and Elna-kaasan like the pudding.
「There are tastes of milk and egg」
「I think it tastes like natural sweetness」
And it looks like even people who don’t prefer sweet things like Nord-tousan and Sylvio-niisan are fine with the taste, they give favorable opinions. If it’s the two of them, they may be fine eating it even without the caramel sauce.
After seeing everyone’s reaction, I also eat the pudding again.
The mellow sweetness of egg and milk spreads inside my mouth, then it completely melts on my tongue. Then it automatically passes through my throat, and it tastes really good.
Un, the sweetness from the eggs and milk fully comes out. It’s delicious enough as it is, but the mellow caramel sauce adds more to the taste of the mellow sweetness and makes the taste of the pudding come out even more.
Un, it’s a nice sweetness.
「What is this coldness!」
As I’m digesting the taste of the pudding, it looks like Eleonora-neesan had scooped up the milk gelato.
「Aah, that’s an ice cream milk gelato」
「Which one is it then?」
「It’s milk gelato」
I didn’t have the vanilla to make the ice cream so I ended up making milk gelato, but it’s kinda troublesome to explain it to her.
「It has a different texture and taste from ice cream, isn’t it? I may like this one better」
「I wonder if this is the so-called ‘muffin’? The compatibility with the milk gelato is excellent」
「There are also crunchy cookies inside!」
Eleonora-neesan, Elna-kaasan, and Sylvio-niisan raise their voice in delight each time they found the ingredients inside. Another good thing about parfait is that you can also enjoy eating them like this.
Not just pudding, let’s also enjoy the milk gelato.
So I eat the milk gelato with a spoon.
The mellow sweetness from milk and sugar spreads inside my mouth, it feels a bit crispy when I chew into it. And in the end, the milk gelato melts due to the temperature inside my mouth in an instant.
Hmーm, this right amount of sweetness is irresistible. Vanilla ice cream is good, but if you use milk with its rich taste then you can make ice cream with more natural sweetness in them.
Even if there is no vanilla, this is already a complete dish.
As I continue to eat the milk gelato, I scoop up the crushed cookies this time. And when I eat them together with the milk gelato, it makes a crunching sound inside my mouth. The flavor of milk gelato and cookies are in complete harmony with each other.
And as I’m absorbed in eating those two, now there is a muffin that got mixed in. Though it has a fluffy texture and a slight amount of sweetness, the muffin has absorbed the milk gelato and its sweetness, and as I chew on it, the taste of milk and butter spurted out at the same time, this is also tasty.
The crunchy cookies and milk gelato. The milk gelato in the fluffy muffin. The crunchy and fluffy texture of the ingredients comes out in several layers so that you won’t get tired of eating them.
Halfway through eating the parfait, there is the sourness from the orange that gives it a nice accent to the flavor and also serves as an entremets.
This never-ending texture and taste you won’t be tired of can be said to be the parfait’s true value.
「There are a lot of ingredients inside, but I do not get tired of eating them because they match well with each other」
「I thought it was a lot for me, but I can unexpectedly continue to eat them all」
Before I knew it, Nord-tousan and Sylvio-niisan’s glasses are already empty. And my parfait was also almost eaten to the bottom of the glass.
And I feel like I was absorbed in eating them that I eat them mindlessly until the last part.
Now then, I wonder what about Elna-kaasan and Eleonora-neesan? As I unconsciously turn my gaze to them, they are struggling to eat the parfait left at the bottom of their glass.
「Kuhh, I can’t t reach the bottom!」
「It is improper but if I just tilted the glass a little……it still can not reach it」
They titled the glass as a last resort, but they still can’t eat the milk gelato and cookies at the bottom even with that.
I got a bit carried away and made the glass too large.
「Say, Sara. Do we have longer spoons?」
「I’m sorry. That is the longest spoon we have, longer than that is......」
「Kuhh, let’s have Logan make longer spoons next time」
It looks like they don’t think of making the container smaller.
Nevertheless, the container for a parfait was quite large. And for a woman’s stomach to eat them all up, they’re unfathomable.
Later that day. Bartolo ended up being forced to solely keep on making cookies, muffins, milk gelato, and puddings.
