Chapter 358: Privileges and New Journals (Thanks to the Alliance Leader of "Qin Shi Mingyue QWE")
Cooking, in Elena's opinion, is an art no less than magic.
Unlike most species, which eat food in a simple and crude way, human civilization has long been trying to process food and find ways and methods to make food more palatable, beautiful and nutritious.
With those memories of food in the depths of her soul, the regular vegetables that grew in the Hogwarts vegetable garden alone could not have caused any difficulties for Elena - as long as they were edible within the normal range, they could usually be roasted, boiled, steamed, fried, stir-fried, chilled, and ground into sauce...... way to deal with it.
What does it mean to be a foodie at the top of the food chain? If she can't handle this little scene, Elena doesn't have the confidence and energy to extend her claws to the wider world of magical beasts and magical plants.
Of course, Elena is not in a hurry for the time being, after all, she has not yet been able to fully arouse the Hogwarts students' cravings for food, and if she jumps out too early, it is very likely to provoke some of the more difficult wizarding animal protections.
If the spicy old radish is allowed to seize the opportunity to join forces again, her future room for play will be much smaller.
Only when the tide of Hogwarts' food culture rolls up, is it the best time for her to really show her strength - as the saying goes, the law does not blame the public, even the world's top wizards, can't stop everyone from having a good meal, right?
Meanwhile, Hermione and Hannah huddled around the Hufflepuff table, whispering as they watched as Elena beside them began to smirk into her usual smirk.
"What should I do? If this trend continues, let's not talk about other houses, we have to try so many strange dishes every day, we will definitely gain weight! Especially those Slytherin dishes today, they are really terrible, coriander and durian, why are there such devilish plants in this world!"
As Elena's royal food tasting officer, Hermione and Hannah had already tasted all the new dishes that the academy would eat today in advance in the kitchen before breakfast began today.
Of course, there are those delicious and beautiful little stoves in the faculty seats, as well as the terrifying dark dishes of charcoal-grilled durian and coriander omelet that are now on the Slytherin table......
Hermione had planned to run away in the face of the terrible-smelling food, but before she could turn around, Elena had already entered the state of "Chef of Hell" and grabbed her arm and forcibly fed those unspeakable bad beings.
You must know that as a foodie who was starved to death once in her previous life, even in the face of her two wings, Elena will not be a little merciful, and any waste of food will only start the "hellish" feeding PLAY.
"But Hermione, I don't hate eating coriander and durian, do I?" said Hannah.
Hermione's face froze, and she suddenly remembered that Hannah had eaten all the durian and coriander omelets she hadn't eaten later.
“...... That's when you don't realize how unpalatable they are. The problem now is not this, but that we should join forces and dissuade Elena if necessary, from letting her play in the kitchen. ”
"Granger, the two of us can't stop Elena. ”
Hannah patted Hermione on the head with a calm look and said solemnly, "Have you forgotten her weekend on the court? Unless there's a dish that we both find unpalatable, Elena is always right. ”
"No, I still don't think it's reasonable. ”
Hermione shook her head and continued to struggle to convince Hannah, "Elena is the chef, why can she be considered one of the judges, these dishes were originally made according to her ideas......"
"But there's no one else but us. Hannah said helplessly.
"Why don't you ask Elena, and see if there are any people on the Slytherin or Ravenclaw side who can get Elena's approval?"
According to Dumbledore and Elena's agreement, in order to ensure fairness and objectivity, there can only be a maximum of one young wizard in each house who has the right to sign and try dishes.
This is also to avoid a situation where one college has a bad conscience in order to target other colleges.
It's just that Elena's small team of food tasting is currently only two.
Considering the strange plants of Slytherin House and the fact that Ravenclaw is all fruit, it was also barely acceptable to the professors - at least the minimum number of people who could complete the vote.
"That's right, the main thing is that there are no one else. Elena, such a proud person, would not want too many people who are not closely related to enter the kitchen to point fingers. ”
Hermione nodded, not holding out any longer.
After all, Hermione had reservations about some of Elena's dishes for the time being. But overall, as one of the biggest vested interests, she doesn't have much to complain about.
You know, the food she was eating was on the same level as Hufflepuff House.
The comparison for breakfast may not be so obvious, but from lunch, the style of Hufflepuff House is very different – Wellington steak, Caesar salad, borscht, braised beef, pan-fried dragon fish, sautéed okra......
By any measure, it's much better than a Gryffindor potato meal.
And on the other hand, although Elena has always behaved very aggressively, it seems that she can talk to everyone, and there is no domineering arrogance.
But the slightly smarter wizards can see that it is not easy to really enter the small group that is approved by Elena Kaslana.
Not only Elena, but both Hermione and Hannah also have a trace of pride in their hearts.
This is also the reason why Hannah had to be on the new Quidditch team, and why Hermione would sit down and read whenever she had time, in addition to their talent, they had to put in more effort than ordinary people to barely keep up with Elena.
Of course, in the eyes of the vast majority of young wizards, even if Elena is not considered, the other two eldest sisters are all unreachable stars.
While the two girls were whispering, it was time for the owl messenger's email.
After experiencing the army of owls on the first day of school and the bombardment of roaring letters last week, it is really difficult to cause any visual and psychological impact when hundreds of owls suddenly fly into the auditorium every day.
However, this morning was a little peculiar, for the reserve of food, which had been missing for a weekend, suddenly returned, and brought Elena a large thick envelope.
There is no doubt that this is a reply from Lovegood's house, and judging by the handwriting, it was still copied by little Luna herself.
"It's finally here, the new issue of "Singing and Singing" that I've been waiting for for so long ......"
Elena came back to her senses, tore off a piece of fish and handed it to her round-faced little chubby chicken as a reward, and eagerly opened the large envelope wrapped in thick parchment that she had brought with the reserve.
"Hermione, Hannah, come and see...... We've published a few articles about the Age of Magic. ”
