Chapter 305 - Trying A Different Food For The First Time

    On the outskirts of the greenhouse, Einar was reunited with his entire family, including his parents.


    "Today is the day of the first harvest of tomato, corn and pumpkin.


    After this harvest, we will nt peanut seeds and potatoes, so we will have all the most important crops of our tribe.


    When my father-inw Vilhelm arrived with the Irish ves, I will start with the mass construction of numerous greenhouses.


    Where only corn, pumpkin, tomato and peanut can be sown.


    We will only sow the potatoes in the greenhouses for half a year until we have enough seeds to be able to start sowing in the coldest and hardestnds of the ind.


    It is food that grows fast and is resistant to cold, but under no circumstances can it be used as a principal food.


    Since a single pest can destroy all crops. So it is too dangerous to just depend on potatoes.


    I have seen how in the future a nation died when a gue spread through itsnds and killed all the nts.


    Since they had no other way to get food, they could only suffer in silence while millions of their citizens died.


    It is always good to have a variety of foods, bute with me. I will show you the seeds that will feed our people in the future. "


    After this Einar opened the greenhouse door and a heat could be felt throughout the ce, so they quickly entered.


    Upon entering, they could see some strange nts. The first one was a kind of small nt on the ground that had strange leaves and a yellow flower.


    Whereas its fruit was a kind of elongated yellow thing.


    The second was an elongated nt that had small red spheres with green hues.


    Finally, thest nt was thergest of all. That nt had a long and thick stem, it also hadrge and thick leaves.


    But what most caught his attention were the spikes at the top of the nt and therge things that hung at its sides.


    Einar proudly walked to the first nt, which was the pumpkin nt.


    "This nt is our pumpkin nt. In theory, we should be able to sow it in the ind''snd, but before we have seeds to spare, we cannot risk it.


    It is a nt that is rich in nutrients such as vitamins A and C. This will be a good meal for any pregnant woman to replenish nutrients.


    So Mother, Lisa and Juni, from today I will make you meals with pumpkin from this nt, pumpkin flowers are also consumed.


    Now let''s move on to the tomato. "


    Einar, I walk towards one of the nts that had the tomatoes "These little red balls with a green hue are a tomato.


    It is a fruit that is more simr to vegetables, so its use will be an auxiliary to vor foods.


    Like pumpkin, it is food that contains many nutrients.


    Finally, let''s move on to corn, the nt that has a value as high as wheat. "


    Einar then walked towards a cornfield from where he took an cob, which he opened to reveal its yellow interior with purple grains.


    "This is an cob, it can be eaten roasted or after going through a process called nixtamalization, since corn does not naturally contain an essential nutrient.


    If someone only depends on corn to live, without doing the nixtamalization they will end up dying.


    Although we will keep that process a secret because if someone steals the corn, they will pay with death for believing that it would be a good idea.


    But as I like to say, it is better to try than just talk about the benefits of any nt. "


    Einar, at that moment, made a sign of his hand and a group of guards brought a table and chairs for everyone to sit down.


    As they sat down, they could see how the doors of the greenhouse were opened and a group of servants entered carrying trays with two tes.


    The first was a kind of yellow torti that had melted cheeseing out of its sides and the second was a soup that was hot.


    The servants left the meals on the tables, because of the delicious aroma, they all gulped some saliva.


    Although they did not understand why there was a green ball that smelled of citrus still next to their tes.


    Einar, seeing the faces of doubts around everything, justughed and looked at them with affection "That green is lemon, a fruit that I could buy from Nelda at a high price but that I will start nting in permanent greenhouses.


    The first thing we will try will be the Aztec soup, a soup that has pumpkin flower, chicken, cream, cheese, fried corn chips, pieces of corn and a broth made with tomato, onion, salt, pepper and garlic.


    In this soup you will taste all the ingredients of this garden, to start squeeze your lemon on your soup in this way. "


    Einar squeezed his lemon using a wooden lemon squeezer that he had made in his spare time.


    Everyone seeing this used Einar''s lemon squeezer and when everyone finished, they watched as Einar used a spoon to stir the broth.


    They repeated this and after that they began to eat; it was at that moment that everyone was surprised by the taste of the strange colorful food on their te.


    Each spoonful was a bomb of vors and textures as the fried corn chips were crunchy while the cheese was soft, but the vor of the pumpkin flower and other ingredients made them eat without speaking.


    It wasn''t that they didn''t want to talk, but the taste of the soup was so delicious that they just couldn''t stop eating.


    Elin, who had never tasted something so delicious, simply did not realize when she finished her soup, so she raised her head and looked at her son with some sadness.


    Einar smiled and with a wave of his hand, the servants brought with them some ingredients and a pan of hot soup with which they served everyone another dish.


    After this, they prepared it following the steps they had learned from Einar.


    Everyone then ate their second servings of soup and when they finished, Einar had a squash blossom quesadi.


    "This beauty is called a quesadi. It is made with a real corn torti, not the wheat torti with which burritos are made.


    But always remember if it does not have cheese, it is a taco, if it has cheese, it is a quesadi.


    You just need to bite into this quesadi and enjoy all the vor. "


    Einar bit into his quesadi and some tears of happiness fell on his face. He never thought it would take him so long to taste a quesadi.


    The only regret was that there were no chili peppers, avocado and tomatillo among the seeds that Natukt brought, otherwise he would have loved to make a green sauce or, failing that, a red sauce.


    Everyone following in Einar''s footsteps tasted the quesadis and were fascinated by the vor they were tasting.
