"This red, heart shaped mushroom is called a reishi mushroom. It is nicknamed the mushroom of immortality because of its healing properties. Some muggles think it cures cancer, diabetes, liver problems... It depends on how it's used. Thinly slice all the mushrooms and add them to the cauldron. Take your wand and wave it over the cauldron with a fast strinking oblique motion and cast the spell." She said and once she was finished diffindoing them and adding them she performed the wand movement and cast "Sanum!"
Ella watched as the Professor demonstrated the next steps they would need to do to finish the potion. When the demonstration was finished, Ella grabbed her grater and cleaned it before picking up her ginger root and beginning to grate over the cauldron. Checking her watch, Ella noted when five minutes would be up and let her cauldron simmer while she quickly gathered her 17 mushrooms. She grabbed her knife again and checked that it was clean from when she had used it previously. She then began to chop the mushrooms thinly, noting the time on her watch. Five minutes were up and Ella added her mushrooms to the cauldron, watching them drop into the potion with a *plop.* When all the mushrooms were added, Ella picked up her wand and focused on the spell she would be using. Using the motion the Professor had used, Ella looked at her cauldron saying "Sanum!"

While she was waiting for the Professor to tell them what to do next, Ella cleaned her knife and grater again, wanting something to do while she waited anxiously to see if her potion looked good? correct? She just wanted to know she hadn't messed it up royally.
