With that Daisy added the rest of the vanilla sugar, along with the equivalent of two tablespoons of water thanks to her saying, "Aguamenti" to a Tarte Tatin dish that she had placed over low heat on the stove. She stirred the sugar and water mixture until the sugar was dissolved. Using "Calefacio," Daisy increased the heat to medium for five minutes to allow the sugar to carmelise to a light golden-brown colour.

Daisy then used "Accio," to gather the apples and butter. She added the apple to the caramel, making sure the cut-side was facing upwards, dotting each slice of apple with butter. Daisy turned the heat down to very low as she partially cooked the apples for five minutes. Once the five minutes had elapsed, Daisy turned off the heat via "Finite," and set the pan aside.
Gaston couldn't help but smile at Daisy's enthusiastic greeting, and his smile grew even wider when she confirmed his suspicion about the recipe. "I thought so! Goodness, I haven't had Tarte Tatin in ages. My grandmother used to make the best Tarte Tatin..." He smiled a little at the memory. He could really go for some Tarte Tatin right now! Maybe Daisy would share some with him when it was ready?

"Unfortunately, I didn't inherit her cooking skills," he said with a small self-deprecating laugh. If he didn't know how to cook with magic, he probably would've starved to death by now! He nodded; he could understand being nervous about cooking. No matter how many times he cooked with magic, there was always that fear in the back of his mind that the dish would quite literally blow up in his face. He watched with a beam as Daisy continued her work. "It looks like you're doing a great job so far!" he said. "Let me know if you need help with anything."
