Chapter 311: Three points of spoon work, seven points of knife work

β€œ...... One semester, just this one. ”

Severus Snape raised an eyebrow and compromised indifferently, his expression looking rather annoyed.

This is not surprising, after all, it is difficult for anyone who is a few hundred years old to keep a good attitude after chatting with Rory for more than half an hour in a way that coaxes a child.

"Now, may you let me go? I have an afternoon class left. ”

Snape narrowed his eyes, looked at the sleeve of his robe that was pulled by Grindelwald, and said in a stiff tone.

I don't know why, there is always a sense of dΓ©jΓ  vu in this scene - except for the difference in age and identity, it is exactly the same as Elena Kaslana's, which makes people irritated and helpless scoundrels.

The rest of the professors had already left the kitchen and returned to the Great Hall to announce the end of the meal, and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was about to carry out a large-scale "learning to farm" education, and even Dumbledore found an excuse to sneak out early.

Facing the verbal offensive of the two Dark Lords at the same time, Dumbledore thought that even if it was himself, he might not be able to parry, after all, he was already old, and being able to exchange one with a Dark Lord was already his limit.

In the huge Hogwarts kitchen, apart from Snape and Grindelwald, there were only a bunch of onlookers who didn't dare to speak, and Elena who was comfortably slicing thin slices of beef on the workbench with a tumbling beef bone broth.

The air is filled with the aroma of beef soup.

"Professor, why don't you try it together? Although you have been facing potion crucibles for many years, you should not have experienced this way of shabu-shabu slices...... I'm still here for the afternoon class, and if you let it go, I'll be able to save it. ”

Elena said as she skillfully used two black walnut wands to pick up the beef slices and put them into the broth, seven up and eight times, the thinly sliced Scottish Angus beef was quickly cooked and curled, and then gently rolled in a dipping saucer and stuffed into her mouth.

Hello, ...... It's delicious, this is life!

Compared with the normal chopsticks of 7 inches and 6 minutes, the 12-inch magic wand chopsticks are undoubtedly suitable for hot pot and shabu-shabu, which can not only ensure that it will not burn your hands, but also take into account the advantages of flexibility and stability, so as not to affect eating too much.

Of course, in addition to the meat itself, the most important thing about shabu beef is a plate of dipping sauce that suits your taste.

I have to say that the Hogwarts kitchen is still quite well stocked.

Although it lacks the finishing touch of millet spicy, it still makes a small plate of delicious dipping sauce with chopped chili pepper and sesame oil to enhance the flavor, plus a handful of refined sea salt.

"No, I'm not interested in this kind of child's playful eating. ”

Snape glanced blankly at Elena not far away, and after resting on the girl's wands moving up and down for a few seconds, he said in his cold, sarcastic tone.

"Miss Kaslana, let me say a word in advance. If I were to find out that you were using a potions crucible during class time, I would swear I'd lock you up for a weekβ€”"

Smack~poof.

"Don't always be so serious, young ......"

Grindelwald stood up, patted Severus Snape's junior, and half-pushed and half-pulled the wizard to Elena's tumbling soup pot, and said with a smile.

"As someone who has come over, I have to give you a piece of advice. It's definitely not a bad thing to try more food while you're working on an appetite, because there's no guarantee that we'll suddenly never be able to eat these goodies again...... Little Elena, I'm in trouble. ”

"No problem, keep it to your satisfaction. ”

Elena smiled triumphantly, silently gave a thumbs up to the tacit old man Grindelwald, and without saying a word, she picked up a piece of hot beef, dipped it in the spice plate, and stuffed the fork into Snape's hand.

The red and clear chili flakes are paired with the thin beef slices like cicada wings, presenting a magnificent and delicious scene. The aroma of stone-ground sesame oil, accompanied by the wild scent of Scottish Angus beef, irritated Snape's nasal passages.

β€œ......”

Snape swallowed quietly, looked at the beef shabu in his hand, and nodded slightly.

"Just once, and then in the afternoon, give me some honesty in class. ”

I have to say that whether it looks or smells, this authentic and rough cuisine is really more than a grade higher than the food on the table at lunch.

Snape hadn't eaten too much, as he had hurried from the main hall of the Great Hall to the kitchen to check on the situation, and he was indeed a little hungry after more than half an hour of "heart-to-heart" with Mr. Otto Apocalis.

"Of course...... Burleigh, bring two more colanders and cutlery. ”

Seeing the hesitant look on Professor Snape's face, Elena's eyes lit up, she turned around and snapped her fingers, and quickly commandedβ€”there was no doubt that this man had been defeated.

"Well, that's right. And the dipping order I just made, you should also remember it. I do not wish to have the slightest regret in making two copies as they are, and giving them to Mr. Apokalis and Professor Snape. ”

"Okay, Chef. ”

"That house-elf, cut three more portions of Angus beef, that's not enough for the three of us. ”

Grindelwald grinned, waved his hand over a chair and sat down, adding a word.

In the wizarding world, the Potions Master is a very rare and precious being. So being able to befriend a young Potions Master is a pleasure in itself, not to mention when that Potions Master might also have the talent of a chef.

......

Half an hour later.

In the hallway outside the Hogwarts kitchen.

"Whew~ so spicy......"

Snape wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, and his pale and yellow face was a hint of blood from the chili pepper, and he looked healthier and more rosy than before.

Comparatively speaking, Grindelwald's performance is obviously much better and more normal - in fact, for Grindelwald from Germany, this clear soup shabu-shabu is really too light. As for Elena, she is even more of a little monster who is not spicy or happy.

The easiest place for people to get closer to each other is this kind of small-scale common meal.

After such a brief shabu-shabu, even Snape, who had always rejected people thousands of miles away, could not continue to face Elena and Grindelwald with a cold ground face and tone.

"I would say that the way the house-elves handle the meat is still a little rough. ”

As if to cover up his embarrassment of not being able to eat spicy food, Snape muttered for a moment, "Whether it's the cut or the thickness of the meat slices, it can be further optimized...... The simple kitchen process is still too flawed. ”

"Listen to you, could it be that you can do better?"

Elena asked softly, she had long been full of curiosity about the legendary "Divine Blade Shadowless" sword technique.

You know, there has always been a saying in the culinary world - three points of spoon work, seven points of knife work.

It is true that Snape's Blade Shadowless has not yet reached the realm of being able to move at will, but it is undeniable that the potential of this magic power to form a cutting ability is definitely not just used as an attack magic.

"Of course, I might be able to teach you later. ”

Snape nodded proudly, narrowed his eyes, and diverted the subject, "Alright, little one, let's go to the dormitory and rest for a while." After your afternoon class, don't forget to report to the Potions classroom. ”

"Good. ”

Elena, who had received the promise of the half-blood prince, nodded, and the little derpy hair on her head writhed happily, and she was quite satisfied that she could get so close in the time of a meal, "What about you?"

"Of course I'm going back to the office......," Snape raised an eyebrow, interrupted by a soft cough before he could finish his sentence.

"Ahem...... Professor Snape, excuse me. You see, I've only been here for a day, and I'm not very familiar with the castle, so can you take me to the Headmaster's office? ”

In Elena's slightly disdainful eyes, Grindelwald cleared his throat and said with great dignity.
