[@jsalsman]

Strong seasoning fell out of favor in Northern Europe because it was said to mask the flavor of spoilage, so someone using chilies was suspected of trying to serve less fresh food than the same dish with tarragon.

[@nunabanuna]

@@jsalsman woooooah that actually makes sense :O thanks for sharing!

[@Skitdora2010]

If you cut sugar out of your diet, even food you once thought bland will be absolutely brimming with flavor.

[@jsalsman]

@Stella H sodium chloride was a common preservative, in which humans were in symbiosis until they discovered it does more harm than good. But for a dish like this the stuffed goose livers would have been salted if for no other reason than antibacterial. Whether the foie gras was later cooked with a potato to make sure it was sterile is another question which I think quite likely: boiling became a traditional safety measure for hygiene. So a skilled cook would have been able to season any number of potatoes to absorb the NaCl table salt used to preserve the expensive filling. But, who knows, maybe they were stuffing geese on the premises back then, anything is possible.

[@jsalsman]

@Rangerous Danger I think she was 32.

[@jonnda]

@Dan Gurău The age of consent was 12 at the time Queen Victoria was 16. Does that put it into perspective? In fact, the age of consent was only raised to 16 around 1885. I'm not advocating for sexual relations with minors. I am only asking that we not use the standards of todays societal norms to judge and understand the societal norms of 1853. It was a different culture, with different expectations, and more rigid gender roles. Take the musical "Gigi", which arguably has not aged well: It includes the song "thank heaven for little girls". The main plot line (IMHO) is a 16 year old girl around 1900 must choose between a man around her age that she loves but who has not much wealth, and a wealthy 33(?) year old friend of her dad's---who is basically an uncle to her. In the end she chooses to marry the 33 year old slimey "uncle" who has money and can provide a stable, comfortable, future for her. And while it pisses me off that she didn't choose love over practicality, I don't honestly blame her character due to the culture she came out of at the time. Marriage wasn't just out of love. That's largely a modern concept. It was out of practically, social status, and to form alliances.

@Dr. M. H. There was an almost religious belief that royalty could heal you and bring you luck and such. Hence the kissing babies thing.

[@YingofDarkness]

@Dr. M. H. It's no different then the way fans act around celebrities nowadays. Most of them could care less about the majority of their fans and yet they still scream and defend them like mad.

[@kanduyog1182]

@@YingofDarkness Agree. I can't understand why people think fawning over celebrities and gods as normal and acceptable but doing the same towards royalties, nobility, and the like are considered old fashioned and idiotic.

[@angelmay5808]

Do you think there was ever a Victorian that took one look at a typical over done bedroom and said that they wanted clean lines and minimalistic look? And were they then shot?😁

[@frenchbreadstupidity7054]

Well there have been peasants who were given fancy, scarcely used rooms at inns due to the shortage of cheap rooms, who felt so uncomfortable about being on the decorated bed that they slept on the floor instead.

[@bellagarzia9653]

Why would they get shot 💀

[@parkchimmin7913]

Lzy G Ouch

[@angelmay5808]

They would get shot because the upper class would think them weirdos for not loving the very crowded rooms and decor that the upper class had and the lower classes would wish to imitate. Someone going against the norm by having a very minimalist interior would not make any sense to them and they would probably be considered asylum material.

[@AnneliesvanOverbeek]

Back then it was less about what individual people wanted and more about what the fashion signified. In the Victorian period, the industrial revolution made it so that regular people could afford to buy items to decorate their house, whereas before they would have had very little, thus causing them to want to show off as many of their possessions as possible.

Kind of like making egg rolls, you have to chop every item in tiny pieces, seal it up in wonton, etc...and takes a short time to consume one. I would never make these egg balls, they look too gross to eat.

@Dr. M. H. I don't know what kind of shit hole you worked in, but my family has owned a restaurant almost my whole life. I can assure you that is NOT normal for a restaurant. Not to mention the majority of most professional kitchens have someone that oversees the it being cleaned on a nightly basis. There is such a thing as random health inspections and they actually happen quite often. Why would you say something like this would be applicable to every restaurant?
