Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 703: How the chef talks

Ten minutes later, under Elena’s insistence, Hannah and Luna left the kitchen under the leadership of the Scamanders and went to the study on the second floor. Only Ai was left in the empty first floor living room Linna and the frying pan.

   Now, the happiness of two little loli from the good dinner is fading away...

According to Dumbledore’s and Elena’s previous arrangements, after finishing their daily Quidditch training, they also need to complete some interesting “Hogwarts Summer Life” under the supervision and guidance of the Scamanders. , For example, the summer vacation assignments to consolidate the learning content of the previous school year, and the preview of the courses for the following year.

  While everything is on the right track, a blame-haired white-haired dumpling naturally cannot escape the pit he dug.

Of course, at least tonight, Elena only needs to face the simmering oil pan for a while, waiting for the clarified lard to boil out in the pan a little bit, and the lard oil becomes a crispy and delicious lard Slag has become the raw material for frying crispy whistle.

   No need to think about the trivial society and the future, cook your favorite food as you like, without being disturbed by anyone, all your energy is poured on the ingredients in front of you. This is the highest cure for a food lover.

  In the empty kitchen, looking at the frying pan in front of her, Elena hasn't had this kind of relaxing time for a long time.

   Since coming to this world, most of the time she needs to struggle to live in this strange world.

Before entering Hogwarts, Elena’s energy was mainly focused on how to maintain the basic three-meal guarantee for the children in the orphanage with Benitez, and after entering Hogwarts, her responsibility And looking forward to magnifying it countless times.

   But Elena's rest time is not long.

  In a moment, Tina Scamander's voice came upstairs.

She is urging her husband to go to the kitchen downstairs to help, although in Tina's view, Newt may not be able to do anything other than help washing dishes and handing things, but at least than the pestle in the upper study It's much better to be in a daze.

   Immediately afterwards, there was a crunch of footsteps on the wooden spiral staircase.

This is the unique walking frequency of Newt Scamander. It is fast and light when landing, but the interval between the pauses is a bit. If it is in the wild environment, it can be said that it is the easiest to let the animals put down their vigilance. signal.

   Or to say-the way top hunters at the top of the food chain act.

   "Sorry, is there something on my face?" Newt scratched his cheek uncomfortably.

   "It's nothing, I just heard the footsteps and turned my head subconsciously to take a look."

   Elena shook her head meaningfully, regained her eyes and fell into the sizzling pan in front of her.

There is no master ball in the magic world. As a master of magical animals, Newt Scamander “recycles” the super high success rate of magical animals scattered around, hiding too many thought-provoking things. .

  Grindelwald once commented this way when he was in Newmontgarde class—no one knows how to hunt magical animals better than Newt.

Elena knows clearly that the reason why the magic world values ​​Newt’s opinion so much is one of the reasons why Newt is more trustworthy than Dumbledore when an uncontrollable magical animal disaster occurs. helper.

   This is indeed the case. Under Newt’s initiative, the progress of the associations is much smoother than Elena’s imagination.

  Newt Scamander is indeed a treasure wizard with infinite potential.

   is just...

   Elena glanced at the pan-fried pig oil in the pan and raised her eyebrows thoughtfully.

  Like boiled lard, you should avoid over-stressing some things and cook it slowly and patiently, so that you can harvest the mellow milk-white lard and the crispy and delicious lard residue that can be used to make crispy whistle.

   Therefore, although precious time for solitude alone is gone, Elena does not feel much lost emotions.

   "So, Elena..."

  Newt Scamander went down the stairs and stood at the edge of the open kitchen for a while.

Seeing that the girl didn’t seem to take the initiative to speak, Newt’s gaze wandered between the frying pan, and the pork belly and pig skin that were put on the desk in different categories, and hesitated for a few seconds. Asked actively.

   "Is there anything I need to help? Or do you want to talk to me?"

Although according to Elena’s previous statement, it should be hoped that he can help decompose and cut the pork tissue together, but Newt knows that it is just a guise-after Elena’s deformity treatment, most of it The tissues and organs have been perfectly segmented, and there is not much need for him to perform secondary processing.

   In fact, when he returned to the kitchen again, even the dishes and dishes in the sink had been cleaned.

"Oh, I haven't thought about it yet," Elena raised her lips slightly and blinked cunningly. "As you can see, I have finished most of the finishing work in advance. As for the content of the conversation-this question It should be you who asked me, not me, right? If I guessed right, there should be a lot of confusion in your heart at this time."

  Elena stared carefully at the iron pan in front of her, carefully adjusted the size of the fire below, and turned it into a gentle fire.

If the lard you want to boil has the most perfect color, then it is absolutely essential to add water to control the temperature with a fire, because the oil is easy to turn yellow and paste after boiling, and the temperature can be maintained after water injection On Baidu.

  Wait until the water is about to dry up, and then reach the stage of slowly turning the fire slowly to produce oil.

   And for Elena, another piece of "pork oil" is just beginning.

   "Say that!" Newt said quizzically, "You're helping me create a separate question?"

   "Yes." Elena said.

"For a moment, I almost thought Professor Dumbledore was talking," Newt was stunned, and then shook his head in amusement. "What question can I ask you to prove alone? The Magical Animals Association has not yet Officially launched, as for cooking skills, and what you have experienced in the past-I am not a curious young man."

   "Oh? What you said makes sense."

  Elena stir-fried the lard in the pan a few times, re-covered the lid, and looked at the old freckles quietly.

Pigskin will affect the efficiency of cooking oil, but this is not a very important factor. Compared to ordinary pig oil, it just takes more time, and time is exactly the most wealthy of Elena at this time. That part.

   "Don't look at me with this look!"

Newt Scamander looked away unconsciously and said with some shame, "Although I don't know who you learned from, in this way, this kind of communication is not suitable for your eleven-two-year-old girl. Should you really think...you should really think...I will reconsider what you call the devil plan?"

"Well--"

  Elena shrugged, and the smile on her face became more vivid.

   "In fact, as you can see, I didn't say anything..."

Is this where Newt Scamander cares? It's easy to set it out. Sure enough, **** is still old and spicy. Grindelwald's "elder's suggestion" to send grain reserves is still quite valuable. .

   In the face of autistic people like Newt, it is best to let the other party take the initiative to speak, otherwise you will be ignored if you say more content.

   "Well, if you really say something you want to ask..."

   glanced at Elena who seemed to be smiling, Newt's heart rose with a helplessness, and he sighed silently.

  Is this the little guy that Gellert Grindelwald and Albus Dumbledore teamed up with? It's a fusion of the worst part of the two old guys' characters, especially when she was a mixed-race girl.

"Elena," Newt said after thinking for a while. "You think that for so many years, we are committed to hiding the existence of magical animals from Muggles and erasing the traces left by magical animals. This is actually a mistake. Things?"

   "It's impossible to talk about mistakes, just go wrong." Elena said.

Then, she glanced at the somewhat dazed Newt, and felt that it should still be explained in more detail. After all, compared with the elite like Grindelwald and Dumbledore, this nearly 100-year-old grandfather's EQ is obviously lower. 100 million points.

   "Whether it is for the magic world, the non-magic world, and the magical animal world, this is the case."

"All?" Newt frowned. "I'm not going to discuss anything about the fusion of non-magic and magical circles here. The International Wizards' Secrecy Act may not be human, but it does maintain two The stability of this world. I thought at first that you were trying to solve people’s food problems before turning your attention to magical animals."

"Oh yes," Elena nodded. "Living, this is the most basic appeal of life. It seems that we have reached an agreement at least on this point, but maybe you have a little bit. misunderstanding……"

  Elena narrowed her eyes and whispered with her index finger raised.

"This is not one of the reasons. On the contrary, in my opinion, it should be the end point where most behaviors and ideas finally lead. The magical animals are an integral part of the natural ecology. They are artificially treated as the attributes of the wizard. Fragmentation, this is a very strange behavior-food chain, this is just the easiest way for everyone to understand."

"I get it," Newt said. "Miss Caslana, you think eating magical animals can solve the food problem of human society. Well, I mean, if the non-magical world is as common as you describe If it exists—"

"Uh--"

Elena turned off the stove, carefully poured lard into the pot prepared in advance, poked with chopsticks and some soft lard residue in the pot, because of the lack of pre-curing process, they are difficult to make The standards are crisp.

However, if you add cooking wine, salt, soy sauce, brown sugar, and spice powder at this time, continue to stir fry in the iron pan. When the lard residue turns from golden yellow to deep red, add a little extra cold water to hide in The remaining oil in the meat is chased out. Although it is not as crispy as the authentic crisp whistle, it is also a delicious taste on the qualified line.

"I can only say that this is a possibility... Discovering the food value of magical animals is, strictly speaking, a road that no one has yet traveled, but at the same time it is not without reference in human civilization. New things."

Elena glanced at Newt, simply cleaned up the residue of the oil residue from the pig oil in the pot, picked up the pork neck meat on the side table, and took out the cute little black cross. Gently poked.

   VeraVerto-Hecate in the extreme night, unfold!

The next second, the piece of pork neck meat in the girl's hand collapsed instantly, and turned into small square pieces of meat one centimeter square in the iron pan below, and the cross in her hand was finally shaped. A dark metal spatula.

"As long as we can verify that some of them are feasible, then we can go back to the source and try at some earlier time. For example, for the production of "crisp whistle" ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ that is After changing the ingredients from pork board oil to pork neck meat with more suitable meat quality, the amount of cooking oil was changed from the original 90% to 60%, and then I began to add cooking wine, soy sauce, aging vinegar... and zero and zero kinds of prepared spices , Continue to stir...Rua!"

  Amidst the more intense flesh, Elena skillfully pulled the pot handle with her right hand.

   Bright, salty and crispy whistle meat flakes up with the girl's flipping action, and then like a waterfall, it fell back into the pan to stir and roll, Newt just swallowed subconsciously after dinner.

   Hell, he was hungry again.

   This magical example is beyond Newt's imagination, but I have to admit that, with the girl's skillful cooking skills and the rich meat lingering in the kitchen, the persuasive power seems to be quite effective.

   Anyway, although Elena's description is a bit of a coincidence, it also answers Newt's doubts.

"Regarding the food shortage you mentioned, I will go to Russia tomorrow. When I was fighting Grindelwald decades ago, I still have a lot of old friends I know there-then, we will continue to discuss magical animals. Problems. Huh?"
