There is no doubt that the little wizards at Hogwarts are full of pride in their hearts.
As a very small number of children in the UK who are selected by Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, no matter what their academic rankings are in the school, at least everyone has a sense of honor and pride derived from a thousand-year-old prestigious school - after all
, they are the future of the British wizarding world.
Until this day...
The hope for the future of this group of wizards...
Being pressed to the ground and rubbed by lively big herrings...
Bang! (factoryε(#)>><(((?>
Snap, snap, snap!<<(￣ε(#￣)
Bang! Bang! Bang! <<_(′□`‖∠)_>><(((?>
Unlike captive-bred reservoir fish, fish growing in wild waters are generally much stronger.
You know, although this body of water is theoretically connected to Loch Lomond, these big herrings in the Black Lake of Hogwarts are obviously stronger than their counterparts in most non-magical waters.
Survival of the fittest, natural selection.
In this waters where all kinds of magical creatures live, only the strongest fish can survive.
And this means that it is not easy for the relatively weak wizards to subdue these strong big guys - even if they leave the familiar waters, their strong desire to survive makes them become
Have to be extra strong.
At least the first batch of little wizards who tried to catch the big fish with both hands and turned them into food had already been slapped hard by the strong fish tails. Many children who had never been beaten before watched.
I was about to burst into tears.
This is fundamentally different from the immobile potion materials in the potions class. These big fish will not only hit people, but they will even bite people if they are provoked! (Although they have no teeth, they can still bite after being bitten.
Very painful)
The entire Hogwarts Great Hall was filled with slippery, leaping giant herrings.
And...the angry little wizards.
Before the professors, who were sitting on the faculty seats and watching the students "cooking time" with smiles below, reacted, they didn't know who started it. The little wizards who were caught off guard and pressed to the ground and rubbed against each other angrily drew out their wands.
.
"Collapse!"
"The flames are blazing!"
"Bilibili!"
"All petrified!"
In an instant, magical beams of various colors flashed in the auditorium.
The big herrings that were showing off their power just a second ago were finally punished. Under the attacks of the angry students, they barely had any resistance and were reduced to being slaughtered by others - after all, they were just a group of stronger ones.
He is just a fish, and if he can slap the little wizards a few times before dying, he can be regarded as a "fish born" with no regrets.
Although the process is a bit tortuous, the results are pretty good.
Faced with the big herring that had lost its resistance under the bombardment of various spells, the little wizards finally had time to move their eyes to the "faculty cooking station" at the front of the auditorium, wanting to see Elena as the chef and
How did Potions Professor Snape deal with these difficult big herrings.
Bang.
Paji.
Under the gaze of everyone, Elena smiled and slapped the big lively fish on the table with the back of her knife. She knocked the ingredients in her hand out with great skill, and then threw them to Snee who had a cold face next to her.
Professor Pu.
Professor Snape took out his wand, tapped the big fish in front of him, and his lips squirmed slightly.
The next moment, an invisible sharp blade sliced open the fish body silently. As the wand in the wizard's hand moved, a complete fish bone floated out from the crack in the fish body. The whole process was extremely smooth.
On the cooking table in front of the two of them, there were already a dozen of these soulless big herrings lying neatly on them.
Emmmm... It seems that the professors in the school have never taught this magic? The little wizards looked at each other blankly.
Immediately afterwards, I saw Elena's hands dancing back and forth on the cooking table as if she were playing a piano. Various seasonings and ingredients that had been broken into foam at some point were quickly mixed into the gaps between the fish and meat, forming a beautiful picture.
picture scroll.
Of course, when placing the fish on the dough, Elena paid special attention to maintaining the feature of "looking up at the starry sky", so that those "cute" faces were still facing the sky straight, looking up at the magical starry sky full of fantasy and mystery above the auditorium
.
In less than five minutes, the second batch of [Stargazing Pies] to be supplied to the staff table was ready, and with the flick of Professor Snape's wand, they floated into the magic oven next to them one by one.
.
While waiting for the Starry Sky Pie to be cooked, Elena came to the side of the durian that was roasting on the bottom of the crucible, carefully removed the durian that exuded a "weird fragrance", and cut the durian with a knife.
Cut the fruit shell into small pieces and put them in small plates.
"This is the king of fruits in Southeast Asia. In the whole of Europe, Hogwarts is the only place where it is grown in large quantities."
Elena glanced at the professors with complicated expressions, shrugged and explained seriously.
"And according to statistics from the Hogwarts kitchen, durian-flavored desserts have now become the most popular category in Slytherin House. Although the smell is a bit strange at first, the taste is indeed particularly satisfying."
"But……"
Professor Sybill Trelawney twitched her nostrils and looked through the thick lenses, wandering between the unknown yellow-white object in front of her and Elena - she felt ominous, more than ever.
Clear and ominous.
"This is a specialty of Slytherin House and must be tasted. Besides, due to the theft of the staff vegetable garden, these are the only desserts we have left. I hope you can understand."
Elena's expression was very sincere, the smile on her face did not change at all, but her attitude was unusually firm.
In fact, as a chef at the top of the food chain, even if the faculty garden was completely stolen, Elena could easily serve a normal dinner with the few ingredients stored in the Hogwarts kitchen.
But in this way, neither the quarrelsome professors nor the Hogwarts students who want to escape punishment by relying on "the law does not blame everyone" will not realize the consequences of their actions.
Reaping one's own consequences is always the easiest way for people to wake up and repent.
Except for Dumbledore and Grindelwald who could vaguely guess part of it, most people could only see the most superficial causal relationship - even if they steal food, it means nothing if they can't cook it; if they don't do anything, then
Sooner or later it will become the final target.
Of course, before that, students first have to deal with the unfamiliar bottles and jars still on the dining table.
There is indeed nothing hidden or misleading in the recipes provided by the Hogwarts kitchen. The quantities, categories, and adding times of all spices are specified in detail, just like a step-by-step guide for brewing potions.
However……
Not to mention that there is often a considerable distance between the content in books and actual operation.
You know, the problems facing the hungry little wizards are a collection of problems that have troubled newcomers to cooking for thousands of years...
"Is this salt?"
"No, I think it should be sugar, sugar is white!"
"Hey, tell me...a little bit of this fruit vinegar, how much is a little bit?"
"Wait a minute, that's not vinegar on your hand! I just tasted it, that's... I don't know what it is."
"Can anyone tell me the difference between these two bottles of chili powder?"
"No matter what, add a little of each, and nothing will be left behind!"
"Acridine! My fish woke up in the pot! Come and help me hold down the crucible!"
"I'm going to chop the carrots first. I've seen how my mother makes soup. Just throw them all away."
