The origin of black forest cake
Actually, it is more appropriate to translate Schwarzwaelder Kirschtorte into "Black Forest Cherry Cream Cake". Because Schwarzwaelder is black forest in German, Kirschtorte means cherry cream cake. After careful study, the Black Forest, to put it bluntly, is really just a "cherry cream cake without chocolate".
According to legend, in ancient times, whenever there was a good harvest of cherries in the Black Forest area, farmers not only made extra cherries into jam, but also generously placed them in the interlayer of cakes, or carefully decorated them one by one when making cakes. When making whipped cream for cakes, a lot of cherry juice will be added ~ and this cake with cherries and whipped cream as the main raw materials will become the so-called "black forest cake" after it is spread from the black forest to other places!
Although most pastry chefs in Germany use a lot of chocolate when making black forest at present, the real protagonist of black forest cake is delicious and rich cherry! In the past, there were cases in Germany where consumers sued the black forest cake for its low cherry content. Therefore, the German government has also made relevant regulations on this national treasure black forest. For example, the cream part of the black forest cake must contain at least 80 grams of cherry juice!

Even if you come to the black forest today, you may not be lucky enough to taste the ubiquitous black forest cake.

The birth of the middle ages-souffle)-(France)
Why do people invent this kind of Shu Lifu that makes people feel that they have never eaten anything after eating it? This is closely related to the insatiable social atmosphere at that time. At that time, rich people ate several times as much as they worked. It is often a dinner for three or four people, and there are ten or twenty dishes to eat.
