Oh, my MERLIN!

Sophie was going to fail this class! She thought it'd be an easy O until she found out they'd be baking! She thought they'd be discussing the function of a rubber duck or something!

Sophie quickly copied down the recipe and directions for quick reference.

Text Cut: Directions!
1 1/2 cup warm water
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon. yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
3-4 1/2 cups flour
  • Step One: Using one of the bowls at your workstation, combine the water, sugar, and yeast. Let the mixture stand for 10 minutes (or until yeast is bubbly)
  • Step Two: Add salt and stir.
  • Step Three: Add 1/2 cup flour and mix well, gradually adding more flour (usually no more than 3-4 1/2 cups) until the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl and no longer sticks to your fingers. You'll want to add just 1/2 a cup at a time.
  • Step Four: Spray the other bowl with cooking spray and place dough in the bowl.
  • Step Five: Cover and allow the dough to rise for 45 minutes, or until its doubled in size.


Okay, so step one. Sophie could do this. She COULD.

Sophie collected a bowl at her table then just stared into it. She was used to being able to clean things with magic during potions, but in this class, she was only allowed to cast Aguamenti. Maybe Muggles didn't clean their bows. Shrug.

She kinda dusted it off by hand, though, before beginning. She used a measuring cup (and her wand to cast Aguamenti) to measure out a cup and a half of water. She added it into the bowl before using a measuring spoon to measure a tablespoon of sugar. She added it into the bowl then repeated the same step with the yeast. Pretty soon, she had those three ingredients in the bowl.

Now the ten minute waiting game began.
