The Legendary Rebuilding of a World by a Realist Demon King Chapter 78

The Best Pot-au-feu

It was just us in the kitchen now, and so Jeanne asked what I would like to eat.

So n might have said you, at that point, but I wasnt like that.

However, saying anything would also not do.

And so I considered the question.

Hmm. I looked at Jeanne who was now dressed as a chef.

As she was always wearing white, she did not strike as looking that different. And then I rembered sothing.

She was from a country called France.

That was a country known for its food.

Perhaps she could make sothing like mayonnaise.

It was one of the best condints that the French had invented.

But when I asked her about this, she looked at with confusion.

Mayo-nnaise? What is that?

Then I rembered that it was invented in the 18th century.

Jeanne was from the 15th century, so she missed it by about 300 years.

(It was still the middle ages, and food hadnt advanced much yet.)

That made realize she wouldnt be able to do much at all. And so I decided to ask for sothing simple instead.

Alright, I would like you to make Pot-au-feu then.

Ah, Pot-au-feu. That I can do!

She said excitedly.

It was just vegetables and bacon boiled in a pot.

You cut up radishes, carrots, cabbages and boiled it with bacon or sausages. Anyone could do it.

And yet it was very satisfying and delicious.

Though she had boasted of her cooking skills, upon further interrogation, she revealed that she had rely hunted wild birds and boars and roasted them with salt. Being a good cook was clearly not true.

Eve could bake with flour. Such a thing would be too much for Jeanne.

In any case, my decision was the correct one.

As she found using knives too troubleso, she threw the ingredients in the air and sliced them with her sword.

This seed like a horrible use for her holy blade, which was called Nouvelle Joyeuse, but she seed oblivious to my reaction.

As she was cutting them in the air, so of the ingredients fell to the floor.

She scooped them up and said,

Three-second rule.

And tossed them into the pot.

Well, the heat would kill any bacteria anyway. But it was clear that she didnt have the best notion of cleanliness.

And so I warned her.

But she replied,

You were wealthy in your previous life, Demon King. I was poor. Not only did I eat vegetables that had fallen on the floor, but I even ate vegetables that rats had half-eaten.
