Hogwarts on the tip of the tongue

There is still a breeding industry at Hogwarts, but it is very small.

To be precise, it is actually Rubeus Hagrid, the gamekeeper, and Kettleburn, who is the professor of Care of Magical Creatures. The number of small animals such as chickens, ferrets, rats, and rabbits raised near the Forbidden Forest does not count. Too many, mainly used to feed magical animals.

This was important information that Elena got from the house elf Burley after asking again and again.

After all, for the Hogwarts kitchen, the scale of the food raised by Hagrid and the others is still too small to be a stable source of meat for the school's three meals a day. The students' daily protein supplement mainly depends on Hogwarts. Various poultry and livestock imported by Watts from the non-magical world.

"There is no doubt that I am half a magical animal."

As a mixed-blood Veela, after learning about the purpose of Hagrid and his companions in raising those small animals, Elena did not hesitate to label those small animals as "food reserves" even though they could not be used to feed the entire school's teachers and students. , but for her to use as a toothpaste, there is obviously nothing wrong with it both emotionally and rationally.

As soon as he heard that Elena could make some delicious new dishes, Gellert Grindelwald was also very motivated and took the initiative to help Elena get two fat and big Sussex chickens and sent them to Huo. In Gwartz's kitchen.

As for the chicken thief, the blame lies naturally with the foxes or vampire monsters living in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts. With Grindelwald's superb magical ability, it is too difficult to forge some traces. Simple.Flashdance..

It has to be said that compared to the pure lethality and destructive power, the convenience provided by the magic of this world in daily life is far more satisfying, especially in the field of cooking.

Beggar's chicken is said to be easy to make, but if you want it to taste good, you still have to put in some effort.

If you really foolishly follow the cooking methods in martial arts, not to mention how much precious edible parts will be wasted, the taste will definitely be very bad. Whether it is ingredient processing, pickling, or cooking techniques, it will be a great test for the chef. A place for craftsmanship and experience.

"Grandpa, please help euthanize these two chickens, it's Avada."

"Avada gnaws the big melon avadakedavra"

Gellert Grindelwald raised his eyebrows, but without any hesitation, he recited the spell cleanly.

However, he had never thought before that that after so many years, the objects he would use Avada Kedavra on again would actually be two trembling fat Scottish chickens.

What concerned him most was Elena's indifferent attitude when facing Avada's Kedavra. Few people could treat the Death Curse so calmly, let alone want to use it in the kitchen in a whimsical way. .

This kid is a born devil.

"that's it."

Elena said gratefully, lifting up the fat chicken that had lost its soul, raising the knife in her hand, skillfully making a small incision just below the chicken's head, and pouring the chicken blood into the small bowl that had been prepared.

For hygiene reasons, after Elena drained the chicken blood, she also specially cleaned all the lymph nodes and chicken feathers near the chicken's neck, and also took out all the internal organs in the chicken's belly. Then she looked at Grindelwald's extremely complicated eyes. , washed and peeled it clean, and put it aside solemnly.

You know, chicken giblets and chicken blood are both delicacies in the world, so it would be a pity to just throw them away.

Although there are many ways to make beggar's chicken, Elena chose a relatively primitive and simple one this time, so there were not many raw materials involved. In the end, she chose to stuff mushrooms and various fungi into the chicken's belly.

In order to add more flavor, a layer of fine salt and a thin layer of fat were applied around the bare fat chicken.

The most authentic beggar's chicken needs to be wrapped in fresh lotus leaves. However, Hogwarts, located in the Scottish Highlands, cannot find this raw material for the time being, so it has to be slightly replaced with broad-leaf cabbage from the vegetable garden. .

Similarly, the mud used to wrap the vegetable leaves comes from the wet mud beside the Black Lake in Hogwarts.Of course, this simple digging work was naturally left to the house elves at Hogwarts.

"Is that okay? This is what you call super delicious food."

Grindelwald frowned, watching Elena throw the ball of soil directly into the stove in the kitchen, with a somewhat hesitant look on his face. He always felt as if he had been fooled by this little guy again.

This way of playing like a child playing house, the food made is really edible

"Just wait and see. Forget it. The heavy sword is as simple as the heavy one. You don't know how to cook anyway, so don't express your opinions on these things. You have never won an argument about cooking."

Elena curled her lips and didn't explain much.

Grindelwald, who had had several experiences with real fragrances, had already learned not to make any harsh remarks before trying the food. He shrugged noncommittally and took the initiative to turn the topic to a discussion about Hogwarts.

Although there was no evidence, Grindelwald's intuition told him that the secret room discovered by the ghost professor at Hogwarts was definitely connected directly or indirectly to this white-haired dumpling.

Time returned to the end of the two people's chat.

Accompanied by the crackling sound of dry wood in the kitchen stove, Grindelwald took the initiative to lift the human body transformation spell and transformed from Albus Dumbledore into the wrinkled, bald old wizard again.

After a period of baking, the "beggar's chicken" in the stove is ready to be baked. There is a faint sweet fragrance in the hard soil, and the moist lake mud has long dried, showing a gray-black color. Hard shell.

"Now is the time to witness the miracle."

Elena swallowed and carefully used the tongs to pick out the mud.

The gray-black mud was burned very hard and hot, and it didn't look that delicious. However, when she thought of a chicken inside, Elena couldn't help but salivate, and she wanted to slap the mud away with her bare hands.

After looking around, Elena picked up a pan on the kitchen workbench and smashed it onto the hard mud.

Snapped.

As soon as the mud shell cracked, a unique fragrance of cabbage floated out. It kept digging into people's noses, removed the mud shell, opened the overripe lotus leaves, and a golden chicken appeared. In front of her and Grindelwald.
