	Tulipmania is the story of the first major financial bubble which took place in Holland in the 1630ies during the dutch Golden Era. Tulip bulbs were imported from the Ottoman Empire and surprisingly thrived in the dutch soils. Masters of cultivation like the dutch bred the tulip to perfection, and soon investors began to purchase tulips in absurd quantities, pushing prices of the flower to unseen highs. Soon the average price of a single flower exceeded the annual income of a skilled worker and cost more than some houses at the time. Tulips were sold for over 4000 florins, and as prices drastically collapsed over the course of a week, many tulip holders instantly went bankrupt. During the peak of Tulipmania, a strange contest was issued for the tulip growers, it was, to cultivate a black tulip. But why a black tulip? Perhaps because the color is so rare to find in nature (or at least in living nature) and perhaps because calvinism still had it’s grip in the dutch. Needless to mention, growers of the time went completely overboard seeking to cultivate the shady colored flower. The legend goes that the prize of cultivating the black tulip was 100.000 florins, and the intrigue and greed inspired by the contest, led to fraud and even more gruesome events. One tale is told of a poor shoemaker who discovered a black tulip bulb. At the very pinnacle of Tulipmadness, the word travelled fast and only a few weeks later 5 gentlemen from the Union of Florists in Haarlem, all dressed in black payed a visit to the shoemaker. They offer to buy his black bulb for 1500 florins, a sum that for the shoemaker is florins from heaven. The tulip bulb changes hands, whereafter, the men throws the precious bulb to the ground and destroys it, while unveiling “we have the other black tulip, and now besides us, no-one in the world owns a black tulip”. In fact the truth is that no-one to the present day, succeeded in cultivating a truly black tulip. The closest we get is a tulip called “<i>Queen of Night</i>” with it’s ~~dark~~ dark purple glossy petals.

	The the dish ”<i>Calvinist bread, Queen of Night</i>” in front of you, presents a new version of the dutch rye bread, tinted in the darkest color ever so historical for the dutch. The calvinist bread Queen of Night is baked in 2 hours, whereas traditional Frisian Roggebrood is baked for 15 hours and the Brabrant version in 4. The Queen of Night is less sweet and more sour in flavor — much like the calvinist. In this bread you will also find buckwheat, buckwheat similar to rye is an old crop which has decreased in production in Holland. These crops are interesting is terms of climate resilience, since they both has the beneficial effect of fixating plant available nutrients in the soil. Rye is grown in the east and southeast of the Netherlands, where the soil is poorer, since rye is a durable crop and can even be cultivated during wintertime. All the flour is grown ecologically in the Netherlands, and milled at [[Molen De Vriendschap]]. On top of the bread you have a goat cream cheese from [[ Ridammerhoeve Goat Farm ]] in Amsterdamse Bos.”		The the dish ”<i>Calvinist bread, Queen of Night</i>” in front of you, presents a new version of the dutch rye bread, tinted in the darkest color ever so historical for the dutch.
