329-Parfait




 
 When I finished the parfait, I immediately reported it to Erna's mother Elinora's sister. Then they decided to hold a tasting party in the dining room.

I'm looking forward to this parfait.

Yeah, what's it all about? Meena says it's full of dreams,

Okay, so maybe there are a lot of cookies.

 Mother Erna and Sister Elinora have already taken their seats, leaving only Father Nord and Brother Silvio.

 I heard that Mel has gone to call for them, so all that's left is to wait for them.

 I sit quietly in my seat and listen to their conversation as they seem to be enjoying themselves.

 The bar seems to have been raised by Meena's words, but will it be okay? I hope they don't get mad at me for not tasting it too good or anything when I try it.

 Just as I was thinking about this, Mel pushed open the door, and Dad Nord and Brother Silvio walked in.

 Brother Silvio sits in the chair next to me and Dad Nord sits in his usual patriarchal chair.

'Sorry to keep you waiting,'

Are you okay at work?

Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just getting to the end of the line.

Like I always say, don't take it too hard, okay?

Thank you for your concern. Just one more step and I'll take it slow.

I look forward to it.

 Somehow I felt as if I had eaten something sweet even though I hadn't eaten the parfait.

 That was the same for both Elinora and Silvio brother, and they have a delicate look on their faces.

It's a good thing that you're a parfait today, isn't it? What kind of candy is that?

'It's like a lot of sweets and fruit in a glass, isn't it? Anyway, the sooner you get it looked at, the better. Mel, can you bring me a parfait?

Okay. Come on in, Meena and Sarra, come on in.

 I guess I didn't need to ask for it, but Mel opens the door and there's Meena and Sarla with the parfait on a tray.

 Saara is carrying the parfait with a relaxed expression, but Meena is strangely aware of the parfait and looks nervous.

 It makes me feel uneasy to watch.

Meena, are you okay?

I'm sorry, I'm just nervous with something this full of candy.

If it happens, I'll be a psychic and the only thing I'll defend to the death is the parfait, so you'll be fine.

'What? That's reassuring, but it's complicated because the parfait seems to be more important than me.

 When I called out to her like that, Meena was able to bring her parfait to the table without a problem, as if her nerves had been released.

Oh my, it's amazing. It's a lot more glamorous than any of the other confections I've seen. It's so beautiful.

Well this is a big one.

 Seeing the parfait laid out in front of me, Mother Erna looks happy and Father Nord pulls a face at the volume of the parfait.

 It's different in size and impact compared to the ones we've had so far.

''I wonder what's inside? Bread and white cheese?

I don't smell like cheese, okay? It's cold to the touch, so I suspect it's a member of the shaved ice family.

 Sister Elinora and Brother Silvio discuss the discussion while observing a section of the glass.

 Both are subtly off.

'Lots of strawberries on top and something white and fluffy that I've never seen before. And then there are cookies and jam on top... this is promising.

'Because Mother Erna is the strawberry one, Sister Elinora is the grape one, and Father Nord and Brother Silvio have an orange one to suit their tastes.

Okay.

 The point is that I didn't say he was a big guy or anything like that, but rather that I assigned him a preference.

 Elinora sister wouldn't mind, but Erna-mom would be picky about that part.

 Mother Erna and Elinora sister take a large container of parfait, while Father Nord and Brother Silvio take a smaller parfait with a relieved look on their faces.

 The two of them don't have that big of a stomach, so they'll definitely not be able to eat their dinner if they eat this.

 I'm more of a parfait guy myself, but the regular size is enough for me.

 I'll take a parfait with a mixture of strawberries and oranges, customized to my liking.

 We just take the parfait and Sarla and Meena just finish handing out the spoons.

 However, the length of the spoon is a bit uncomfortable for the parfait. If the ladies like it, I'm sure they'll be ordering a longer spoon under Logan soon.

'Okay then, Al. I'll take it.

Come in.

 I responded to Dad Nord's words and everyone got to work on the parfait.

It's amazing. This pudding is very pliable.

 Mother Erna makes a mysterious face as she pokes the pudding with a spoon.

'It's true. If you poke it with a spoon, it'll pop back at you.'

It's like a cold slime.

 Brother Silvio's analogy is quite funny.

 In the midst of all this, Elinora sister successfully scooped up the pudding and put it in her mouth, as if she preferred to eat it rather than observe it.

''Hmph!

 Sister Elinora's eyes widen and remain still with a spoon in her mouth. Then she slowly drops her gaze and catches the pudding piling up.

'What is this! It's so pulled together and sweet!

'Hey, pull the Elinora spoon out of your mouth before you speak. You're not behaving.

 Quite right, Mother Erna was right.

 However, sister Elinora is no longer listening as she is so busy eating her pudding that she is no longer listening.

''Well, is it really that good?''

 Perhaps unable to resist the excitement of Sister Elinora's excitement, Mother Erna also scoops the pudding with a spoon and puts it in her mouth.

 Mother Erna checks the taste while meditating, but soon her eyes open with a startling color added to them.

''Well! What a mouthwatering sweetness! It's going to melt on my tongue and slurp down my throat!

 Good. The pudding tasted good to both Sister Elinora and Mother Erna.

''The milk and egg taste is very good.

It's like a natural sweetness to me.

 The taste of the pudding was fine for Dad Nord and Brother Silvio, who don't have a sweet tooth, and they liked it. The two of them might be able to get them to eat it without the caramel sauce.

 After seeing everyone's reaction, I once again eat the pudding too.

 The mild sweetness of the eggs and milk spread in my mouth and melted beautifully on my tongue. And it went down the back of my throat naturally and was really pleasant to the palate.

 Yeah, the sweetness of the milk and the egg is very strong. It's good enough as it is, but the moist caramel sauce tightens up the mild sweetness and reveals even more of the pudding's flavor.

 Yeah, it's a nice sweetness.

'What a cold one!'

 As I was chewing on the taste of the pudding, my sister Elinora seemed to have dug into the milk gelato.

'Ah, the milk gelato that is ice cream,'

Which one is it?

Milk gelato.

 I didn't have the vanilla to make the ice cream, so it turned out to be milk gelato, but I don't need to explain that anymore because it's too much trouble.

It's not like shaved ice, it has more texture and flavor. I think I like it better.

Is that a muffin in there? It goes great with milk gelato.

There are crispy cookies in there too!

 Sister Elinora, Mother Erna and Brother Silvio squeal with joy every time they find the ingredients inside. One of the great things about parfaits is that there's something to enjoy eating them like this.

 I'll enjoy the combination of milk gelato as well as the pudding.

 I eat the milk gelato with a spoon.

 The mild sweetness of the milk and sugar spreads in my mouth, and when I bite into it, it's a little crispy. Eventually, the body heat in my mouth makes it melt in no time.

 Mmmm, this moderate sweetness is unbearable. Vanilla ice cream is great, but if you use milk with a strong flavor, you can make an ice cream that has a more natural sweetness to it.

 Even if there's no vanilla or anything else, this is still a complete dish.

 As you continue to eat the milk gelato, you now have crushed cookies. The milk gelato and the milk gelato are both crunchy and crunchy in the mouth. The taste of the cookie and the milk gelato are perfectly blended together.

 I eat it in a frenzy, and now a muffin. The fluffy dough, made with a modest amount of sweetness, absorbs the sweetness and moisture of the milk gelato, and when you bite into it, the milk and butter flavors are spit out at the same time, which is also delicious.

 Crispy cookies and milk gelato. Fluffy muffins and milk gelato. The crunchy and fluffy layers are repeated so often that eating them never gets old.

 The tartness of the oranges along the way is a great accent and serves as a good chopstick rest.

 The parfait's true value lies in the texture and taste, which never gets old.

There are a lot of ingredients in this parfait, but they all work together so well that you never get tired of them.

I thought it would be a lot of food, but it's surprisingly easy to go on eating.

 The next thing I knew, Dad Nord and Brother Silvio's container was beautifully empty. My parfait was almost at the bottom.

 I think I was already engrossed in the last part of it, eating it mindlessly.

 Now, what about Mother Erna and Sister Elinora? I looked over and saw the two of them there, struggling to eat what was at the bottom of the parfait.

'd*mn, I can't get the one at the bottom!

It's not much, but if you tilt the canister a little bit it won't reach you.

 As a desperate measure, I tilted the container, but I still couldn't eat the milk gelato and cookies at the bottom.
Nope.

 You got a little carried away and made the container too big.

Hey, Sarah. Don't you have a longer spoon?

'I'm sorry. That's the longest spoon I've ever had, and any more than that...

Hey, let's get Logan to make you a long spoon next time.

 They don't seem to think in the direction of making the container smaller.

 By the way, the parfait container was pretty big. A woman's stomach is an immeasurable thing, that she ate it up in one go.



 And later. Bartolo had to keep making cookies, muffins, milk gelato and pudding.
