It was nice to know that you had someone more experienced to turn to if you needed help. Zeke just grinned in response to his desk partner. He was sure Janelle could handle it, like, she was a Ravenclaw and all... and she was.... cleaning everything THOROUGHLY, which was indication enough that she could handle it. If anyone could clean their things as well as his dad then they would be fine.
Nevertheless, he had his own work to get started on. After listening to the Professor give his feedback to those that guessed, and informed them about what they would be doing, Zeke started by taking down notes regarding the ingredients list and the method.
This would be easy as cake, right? Sure it would.
SPOILER!!: Notes Ingredients
100ml Red Wine
10ml Prune Juice
2g Hairy fungus, mashed
2g Tortoise Shell, powdered
5g Caterpillar, sliced
1 Bat Tongue, diced Instructions- Prepare all ingredients as listed in the ingredients list, weighing and measuring each carefully.
- Slowly heat the red wine and prune juice and begin stirring clockwise until you can just see bubbles starting to form. (The mixture will be dark purple/brown)
- Immediately add the Hairy Fungus and continue to stir clockwise for ten minutes. (The mixture will slowly fade to a lighter purple/brown)
- Continuing to stir clockwise, add the tortoise shell. (The mixture will be a creamy color)
- After eight minutes, remove the cauldron from the heat and add the caterpillar and bat tongue, making sure to continue to stir the solution in a clockwise motion for five minutes, until it changes to a creamy green colour.
- As the potion cools, it will turn emerald green. Once it is completely cooled (about fifteen to twenty minutes), you may cease dispense the potion into appropriate vials for storage.
Characteristics: Emerald Green Level: Advanced Information: The effects are dosage based; the more ingested, the older one will age
With his notes complete, Zeke took his measuring utensils to the front to collect his ingredients, making sure that he had also thoroughly scourgified them beforehand. They were as clean as clean could be. NO pollutant contaminants here!
Once he had the samples of the things he needed (roughly measured out) Zeke returned them to his workspace where it would be easier to make sure they were accurate measures. Using his scales (and cleaning between each use) Zeke measured out the quantities for the dry ingredients first before then using his other tools to measure out the liquids.
His cauldron was already set up, and cleaned before the lesson begun, so he took another look at it before adding the 100ml of red wine and the 10 ml of prune juice. Zeke adjusted the medium flame and brought it down a little so that it would be heated through more slowly. He did this while stirring clockwise with his other hand. Waiting... waiting for the bubbles to form. The colour of his brew was indeed a dark shade of purple/brown. Note to self though, wine and prune juice did NOT look appetising.
