Chapter 350 An Episode About Food Testing (Thanks to the Leader of “Kriovreport”)
Pia!
"You're the one who's going to gain weight, you idiot!"
Hannah raised her hand and slapped Elena's paw away, rolled her eyes at Elena, and said angrily.
"Besides, if we really gain weight, it's not all your fault!"
These days, Hannah and Hermione have almost become Elena's exclusive food tasters. Every new dish must be tasted by them before it is served on the Hogwarts table.
At the beginning, the two little wings still wanted to struggle a little.
However, under Elena's continuous attack of food like a tide, their worries about weight and the girl's reserve were unable to resist, and they soon fell into a state of self-destruction and self-abandonment.
"That's right, Elena, next time you need someone to taste it, couldn't you call Neville or Crabbe?"
Hermione nodded in agreement. As her relationship with Elena grew closer, she found that her preference for food became more and more serious. The most obvious change was that at least when she first started school, she didn't have it every day. After dinner at night, I have the habit of eating a small snack before going to bed to fall asleep.
"Neville?"
Elena glanced at the chubby little guy holding chicken legs at the Gryffindor table, shook her head slightly and said.
"In the past, it might have been possible, but at this time, it might not be possible."
"Why? Is there any difference between now and before?" Hermione frowned.
"Because from now on, the dishes of each college will start to become specialized."
Elena shrugged and replied somewhat helplessly.
"The dishes that follow are all proportioned and adjusted based on the vegetables grown in each college. They are no longer suitable for showing up in the kitchen to try them - after all, this way, they will see and taste them in advance. Food from other colleges.”
As for the reason, Elena actually only said part of it.
More importantly, once they enter the kitchen, these little wizards are likely to find that there is an insurmountable gap between the dishes provided to the professors and the strange dishes they face.
The reason why I use the word "gap" to describe it is because the previous difference between the two is no longer just a difference in cooking techniques, but has risen to a gap that is close to a cultural level. Whether it is the materials used, the taste, or the richness, it has widened. Traditional European cuisine has been around for at least three thousand years.
Although, one of the important factors is that the plants in the "Private Garden for Faculty and Staff" can be said to be Elena's personal customization, such as soybeans, water spinach, soybeans, bamboo shoots, papayas... …
But more of it comes from those food memories deep in Elena’s soul that can never be forgotten.
To take the simplest example, soybeans alone can produce a series of ingredients or condiments such as soy milk, tofu, tofu skin, tofu curd, dried tofu, and bean curd - if you don't watch the whole process with your own eyes, you will Those little wizards couldn't connect the round soybeans with the white tofu even if they tried their best.
"Oh, then let's talk about it, aren't we the same..."
After hearing Elena's explanation, Hannah stabbed the pie in front of her with a fork in frustration.
Although this way, Elena would probably no longer force them into the kitchen and feed them all kinds of strange food that is so delicious that it makes people fly, and she no longer has to worry about gaining weight or making strange noises, but... …
Sure enough, I still feel so lost, and my heart suddenly feels empty.
"Of course you are different!"
Noticing the disappointment on Little Tienniu's face, she glanced at Little Beaver, who was also a little disappointed. Elena suddenly opened her arms and hugged the two little wings together, and gently rubbed her cheek against the two little ones. Cute, said seriously.
"You are different from those stinky boys. We have agreed to do everything together. Besides, without you, how would I know whether the food on the table was successful or not."
Everyone's taste is different, and Elena can't guarantee that the food that suits her own taste will really suit the taste of these European little guys. According to statistical principles, three is the most basic number for sampling surveys. This is why she makes at least two portions of food at the same time every time she tries it.
In particular, in the following dishes, many innovative combinations of ingredients subvert and challenge traditional European eating habits, even though they have passed a worldwide test in later generations, and have a solid foundation from the school. With the backing as the foundation, the only thing Elena is sure of now is that it is non-toxic, can't kill people, and is full.
After all, no one can guarantee how many of these little guys like Houttuynia cordata and how many people hate bitter melon.
"By the way, speaking of which...Hermione, Hannah."
Suddenly thinking of this, Elena blinked, her face became solemn, and she looked at Hermione and Hannah solemnly.
"There is one thing I must tell you in advance about the next dish tasting process."
"Um?"
Facing Elena who suddenly became serious, Hermione and Hannah nodded uncomfortably.
Although the three of them are used to laughing and joking, whenever they meet the serious Elena, the two of them still unconsciously become a little weaker - you know, no matter what, the two of them combined are The little lolita in her twenties is still a bit younger than Elena.
"You should have also seen that the types of plants in each academy are different, and some of them are extreme choices, or extremely unpopular choices. This means that the dishes they ultimately appear on the table are inevitably There’s going to be a difference in taste…in other words, there might be some weirdness involved.”
"You know, in the face of these difficult and complex challenges, even I can't guarantee that I can make dishes that will satisfy everyone. Professor Dumbledore and the four deans also have the same concerns, so after discussion, , they also approved that I can randomly select two students from different colleges as advance tasters..."
"I see."
Hermione nodded and replied seriously, "Don't worry, I will definitely taste every dish carefully."
At the same time, the little Hannah on the side also nodded vigorously, waved her fist and encouraged.
"Yes, Elena. I believe that if it were you, the food would be delicious..."
"I also think so."
Before Hannah could finish speaking, Elena nodded quickly and admitted it without humility.
"Of course I know that the food I cook is delicious."
"Huh?!" Hannah blinked, and her little fists froze in the air involuntarily.
"So, what I mean is... I hope you can abandon your personal taste preferences to a certain extent and unconditionally support the dishes I serve - if you really can't get used to it, you can secretly spit it out, but you must Remember to help me sign the dish confirmation form later."
As Elena spoke, she took out a thick roll of parchment from the wizard's robe. It was densely filled with various recipes and dish names. There were two small horizontal lines behind each dish. for signature.
"This is parchment enchanted by Professor Dumbledore. Only those who have tasted those dishes can sign on this paper for confirmation, so please..."
For those professors who can enjoy high-standard small stoves alone, they naturally do not need to personally participate in the process of tasting and commenting on the dishes of students. So how to determine whether it is picky eaters or the dishes are not delicious, of course, can only be determined by student representatives. opinions as a reference.
Although Elena's current magic strength is temporarily unable to crack the strange magic jointly performed by Dumbledore, Professor Flitwick and others, she can still make the little wizards eat the dishes she cooks.
Cold folded ear root, coriander beef cubes, dry-fried devil pepper, cantaloupe fried bitter melon, apple steamed egg, mustard half-cooked beef...
These delicacies that have been passed down for thousands of years must be allowed to be experienced by these little wizards in the magical world - what is it like to grow vegetables by yourself, even if you have tears in your eyes, you have to eat every grain of it with hard work. .

PS: Fatty Chicken likes to eat all the above dishes and has made them all. In fact, they taste pretty good. The recipe is actually very simple. Except for the appearance, which may be a bit strange, it’s not a dark dish. At least there’s no grilled durian, right?
