It's a baked april.
It is made by hollowing out the core of an april, adding sugar and cinnamon, and heating it in a frying pan or in the oven.

Prince Ernest explained.
"Count Kuzma of Breuland told me about it."
"Heh, heh. ......"

He taught her this way of eating when he used to help Bina to make a living.
It was probably made by Bina and passed on to us by Count Kuzma who ate it.
The aroma was similar to that of cinnamon, so I could see that he had devised a way to make it.

It was a hit with everyone.
The tea was, of course, Apulul tea.
Yes, it smells good.

"Master Nest, how do you make this tea?"
This is.... ...... uh, Lotte, do you know it?
Yes. You put the peeled april skin in boiling water. Then the aroma is transferred to the water and you can enjoy this kind of tea.

"......," he said.
Princess Rieschen laughed and drank the tea.
"Would you like another cup?"

"Oh, by all means."
Then Laila, who had just become the prince's maid of honor from the Royal Secret Maidens, arrived with a bowl of popcorn.
"Yes, this is good too, not only sweet things.

Prince Ernest immediately reached for the popcorn.
"Your Highness, if you eat too much, you'll miss dinner.
"Yes, ...... I'll eat in moderation."

We've recently added some new items to the menu," said Prince Ernest.
Prince Ernest said.
The food at Jin's was delicious. I was inspired by them.

The menu consisted of white rice, consommé-like soup, various tempura, steak, and vegetable salad.
Jin would have said that the combination was difficult, but he swallowed his complaint, saying that it was not unreasonable this time.

Jin consoles a somewhat disappointed Prince Ernest.
"Anne, Lol, and Lefa are here today. I think I can give you some advice.
Even if I can't give you advice on ingredients, I can give you advice on cooking methods, such as how to properly cook rice or porridge that is boiling in front of you, or how to cook tempura that is too squishy even though it has just been fried.

"Well, it's all soggy.
Jin smiles wryly. If this is the case, it would be better to make porridge from the beginning.

Then came the tempura.
It is made of white fish and vegetables, but it is not crispy at all. Even Jin could tell that the batter was definitely over-stirred when it was made.

On the other hand, the soup and steak were excellent.
Thank you very much for the food.

"I suppose so. That's why we are building a highway.
"Ah, Rieschen's place doesn't have a sea, so they have to transport by land. My place is thinking of shipping. We'll tie up with the Kingdom of Elias.
"I see, that sounds good.

"I don't think we'll be able to build a ship as big as a gin all of a sudden, but we can start by increasing production of 20-meter class ships, right?
The idea is not to build a large ship all at once, but to step up production.
"The size of the vessels will be easy to handle, and their transportation efficiency will be much higher than it is now."

The advantage is that more seafarers will be employed.
"The Kingdom of Elias has already built ships of that size.
The Kingdom of Elias, a maritime nation, already has several docks that are capable of building 30-meter class ships.

Prince Ernesto's words were casually muttered, but Jin felt that it was a good opportunity.

So Prince Ernest and Princess Rieschen stood up to use the manaphone to get permission from their respective countries before the end of the night.
