SPOILER!!: directions Right, actually making food. Selina could only guess how terribly the whole ordeal was going to end. Baking and cooking was like potions in so many ways. In fact, Selina had often referred to potions as glorified potion making. So the whole making food thing in muggle studies, although a good idea to most, made Selina want to heave in a toilet. There was no way she was going to survive this thing alive. Swallowing the emotions that she could muster to swallow, which was not much, she began by mixing the Cream Cheese, Sour Cream, Lemon Juice, and Chives together into a paste mixture. So far... so good. |
Post One! Hannah was at first worried that they were going to have to make the dish that they originally said and her heart sank...no way would she have anything to do with lamb. She perked up a bit when she realized that was not the case. She took notes on all of the ingredients and the directions on how to make the dish. Hannah grabbed the cream cheese, sour cream, lemon juice and chives and mixed them in the bowl. She mixed and mixed until it turned into a nice paste mixture. This wasn't so bad she thought. Alteast her mixture turned into the desired consistency. |
Post Numero Uno! (: SPOILER!!: Ingredients SPOILER!!: Directions Jayden nodded as she listened to the conversations between the prefect, the teacher, and a few other students. "Okay. Shrimp on the Barbie Bites..." She mumbled to herself as she mixed the Cream Cheese, Sour Cream, Lemon Juice, and Chives together until they formed some sort of paste. Seafood wasn't Jayden's style usually, but this was already starting to look good! Now for the second part. Jayden laid out the salmon carefully, making sure not to break any of the pieces off or drop it on the floor or anything. Next, she took a knife and gently spread the mixture onto the salmon. The next part was a breeze, she slowly rolled the salmon up, and then transferred the rolls onto a new clean plate. Yum! |
post 2 Waiting for a new hat that he hopefully would get, Daichi decided to go further with the instructions. The next steps were so easy, even a small kid could do it! He grabbed some loose cheese and sprinkled it over his salmon ..things..Barbie something it was called right? He added a liiiitle bit more than usual and after he wiped his hands on the duck apron he wore he started to sprinkle the basil over it as well. Checking the instructions again, Daichi smiled at his result and took off his chef hat because it were began to annoy him. Not to mention that his stomach began to growl. They were going to eat later right?! |
Post 2 Now was time for the salmon. Truth be told Hannah wasn't too fond of handling fish. It just seemed icky. Nevertheless she doubted that the professor would care that she thought the fish was icky. She sucked it up and grabbed the amount of salmon that was needed and laid it out on her work space. She grabbed them cream cheese mixture and continued on to spread the salmon with it. When everything looked perfect she started to roll the salmon up starting with thinner end of course. Once she had them all rolled up she put them on a plate. With a quick glance at her notes she saw that she now needed to sprinkle the rolls with the loose cheese and basil. She sprinkled the cheese and then the basil. Once she was satisified she placed a toothpick in each roll. She sat back and looked over her work. She couldn't help but to be happy with her work. These salmon rolls looked good afterall! |
post 2! SPOILER!!: Ingredients SPOILER!!: Directions After placing the rolls on a new clean plate, Jayden proceeded to sprinkle them with some cheese and a bit of basil. Now it was on to the last and final part, inserting the toothpicks into each bite sized roll. One by one she gently placed the toothpicks into the rolls. Done! Tada! Now it was time to wait for further instructions.. and maybe eat a few rolls. Nom. |
Post 1 Belle saw the class getting all the ingredients. She copied down all the directions first before getting the supplies. She was excited making a new recipie. Quote:
Belle started to mix the cream cheese, sour cream, lemon juice and chives together and all the other ingredients into the mixture. This seemed easy to her becasue she always baked during the holidays with her family. Then she laid the salmon out on the work surface and spread them with mixture she just had to the right of her. Then she started rolling them out from the thinner end. |
Post #2 - Applying mixture and rolling up the pieces of salmon Amelia kept humming as she mixed everything in the bowl. After it reached the constancy that she desired, she looked to the directions again and saw that it was time for her to put the mixture on the salmon. Clearing off the workspace in front of her, Amelia carefully laid the pieces of salmon out in a row. When she was done that she picked her spoon up again and placed it in the bowl. She scooped up a bit of the cream cheese mixture and placed it on the first piece of salmon before spreading it out. She proceeded to do so with the other pieces of salmon. Placing the spoon down now, she started rolling the first piece of salmon up working inwards from the thinnest end. When she was finished doing this to all the pieces of salmon, she placed them all carefully on a plate. Quote:

Post #2 He lined the salmon slices across his board and started to spoon in the mixture onto them, giving a generous helping for each slice without spreading things too thickly. He started to roll the slices up as he read his notes, realizing that the next step would actually be very tricky. So he pierced the roll up with the toothpick first then tapped each roll lightly on the cheese and basil piles before setting the piece aside. He repeated his technique until all rolls was done, lined up nicely on a plate. |
Post 2 Belle looked at the directions after she was done rolling the salmon. Quote:

post 1 Lily opened up her basket when the professor told them too and got ready to start. Quickly she copied down the instructions onto a piece of parchment and set to work. Text Cut: parchment She took her first few ingredients and carefully mixed them together. 'This isn't that bad...' Lily though as she turned her ingredients to paste. Now for the fishy part... The ravenclaw reached inside of her basket. She pulled out the salmon and carefully spread her paste right onto the slices. Lily didn't mind working with her hands and food, so this wasn't bad. Before she rolled them she pulled out a plate and placed it next to her. Then, she carefully rolled the salmon-paste mix and placed each one onto the plate... Now onto the next step. |
Post #3 - Sprinkling with cheese and basil/piercing with toothpicks All her salmon roll things were on the plate now and looking pretty nice. Though Amelia still wasn't sure how much she liked the idea of salmon and cream cheese. :/ It certainly wasn't a flavour combination she would ever have thought of herself. But whatever. With the plate placed neatly in front of her, Amelia looked at the next step before grabbing the loose cheese. She started sprinkling it over the rolls, making sure to get what she considered to be equal distribution. Then she did the same thing with the basil. Once that was done, she grabbed the toothpicks and carefully placed one in each roll. She was done, and in her opinion she had done a pretty darn good job. Quote:

Post 1 Gideon listened quietly as the rest of the class and Professor Cerulean discussed both what they had been talking about last class and ideas for dishes from their part of the world. He almost spoke up himself but felt what he could come up with was likely the same as he had before hand when mentioning stuff from his heritage so he stayed silent. Then they were introduced to their first basket, the fifth year opening it up as instructed. Seemed harmless enough...and fairly simple. Jotting down the steps and ingrediants into his notes, Gideon went to work on their first project. First mixing together the cream cheese, sour cream, lemon juice and chives as the directions said to. Once that was completed, he spread the salmon out before using the spoon to cover with the creamy mixture. When he was satisfied with the coverage of the fish, the Gryffindor proceeded to roll each piece one at a time. Quote:

Salmon on the Barbie Bites - Post 1 SPOILER!!: Professor Cerulean "This is going to be fun!" Tayla thought happily as she read the list of ingredients and the directions completely. She made sure she had everything ready - including her apron, chef hat, and cooking things - and then began. She took the needed amounts of cream cheese, sour cream, lemon juice, and chives and mixed them together into a paste. Then Tayla took the salmon slices out and, using a spoon, spread the cream cheese mixture over them. She rolled each slice as nicely as she could and transferred them onto a plate one by one. |
Gemma wandered around the room watching the students. She stopped as a student asked her a question. Quote:
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ She made it to the middle of the room and noticed that the majority of the students were done with the snacks dish from Australia. With a little nod up and down, she continued, "Once you are done making each dish, feel free to taste yours or even try your neighbors...with their permission of course..." she said as she walked back towards her table at the front of the room, "And then you can move on to the next dish...well actually drink....this class will be a self paced class, so feel free to work ahead if you get done before the others..." she finished as she reached for the second basket. "Okay, in this basket is all of the ingredients and directions for creating a fruity drink concoction from Italy...this one is an easy one but a personal favorite!" she said as she laid out the ingredients and held up the recipe. "Go ahead and make your drink, I've included four different flavors for you to decide between...Cherry, Vanilla, Strawberry, or Kiwi..." she said holding up each little bottle of the flavoring..."So begin when you are ready!" SPOILER!!: Italian Soda SPOILER!!: Syrup Bottles SPOILER!!: Our Cool Glasses to Mix in and Drink Out of-The one on the left SPOILER!!: Ingredients SPOILER!!: Recipe OOC: Feel free to try each others' Salmon Cheese Rolls/Bites and then make one or two or more drinks! Since this is an easy recipe then one post will work. Have fun and I'll be back later with the dish this afternoon! |
Kurumi picked up one of her tooth picks and twirled the salmon roll around in the air a few times as she pondered actually taking a bite of it now. She liked salmon, raw salmon at least, but wasn't too sure about the added flavor that smoked salmon presented, but she lived by the food principle of trying everything once before passing judgement - for the most part. So, into her mouth it went and her nose wrinkled immediately as the cream cheese went...everywhere inside her mouth. Okay...she hadn't been expecting that and wasn't too sure that she liked the texture too much. Coughing slightly, Kurumi reached for a glass of water and drank the entire thing before turning her attention to the front, nearly choking on her drink. Italian sodas? Kurumi had read that those didn't actually come from Italy, although they did come from an Italian immigrant family who made the drinks popular in San Francisco. Kurumi then reached for one of the bottles of syrup, strawberry, and looked at the label. In fact, Torani was a San Francisco based company. Her aunt often used their syrup to flavor her coffee - although rather expensive since it was an imported item. Kurumi moved to raise her hand, but chose not to in the end. She had already spoken up about hemispheres...it didn't seem right to bring up the fact that these drinks did not actually come from Italy in the sense that everyone was probably thinking now. Pouring the syrup into her glass along with some ice, Kurumi measured out the half-and-half creamer and added that before picking up the club soda and adding that as well. Kurumi didn't usually drink carbonated drinks, but she figured she would make an exception this once. Once the club soda was in, Kurumi took a long spoon and stirred the contents for about 30 seconds. Whipped cream? No thank you, this drink was already plenty sweet as it was. |
Salmon Bites Post 2 Taking the plate once he was finished making the salmon rolls, Gideon transfered them one by one onto it before setting it back down onto the counter/workstation. Now for the sprinkling, he mused looking at the short list of steps. Grabbing a handful of the loose cheese, he proceeded to loosely add it to the rolls. When satified that there was enough to his liking, he switched to the basil and repeated the process though there was certainly more cheese then basil on each bite. That done there was the final step, adding a toothpick to each which was done easy enough and having finished shortly after Professor Cerulean spoke up again, he opted to take her advice and sample his. No sense making them and not. And they were certainly yummy. |
There was only a one size hat? So did that mean his head was small? Or where the heads of the others just big? The Slytherin went with the latter thought. "Thank you Professor, i will use this one" He picked up his new chef hat and placed it on his head. Only for it to slide down over his forehead again. He wasn't going to ask for another hat now that he knew they were all one size so he decided to use this one despite it sliding down a few times. He added the toothpicks in the salmon bites and after hearing that they could taste it he dived in. Picking up a salmon by the toothpick, the Slytherin stuffed it in his mouth in one go. He liked all the ingredients in the bite so why not eating the whole thing at the same time instead of taking a few small bites? Wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, Daichi continued to listen to Professor Cerulean while eating from another salmon bite. The next thing they were going to make was a drink. A really yummy looking drink. There was just one problem. WHYSOMANYCHOISESINSYRUP?! Daichi couldn't choose just one so he went with.... All of them. That's right, all of them! He first measured the club soda until he had 20 oz and added the ice in a cup. He then added half and half of the cream in the glass and added the club soda and ice in as well. Now came the yummy part. The syrup! He had not been kidding to add all flavours in the glass. The Slytherin opened up all the bottles and after reading the instructions he added: One table spoon of Kiwi. Then cherry. Then Vanilla and Strawberry until he went to do the process over again because he only had four spoon of syrup in the glass at the moment. He choose Vanilla, Kiwi and Cherry to be the *extra* ingredients and began to stir the drink. The drink was getting an odd colour the more he stirred and after he was sure everything was mixed he grabbed the bottle and pushed the whipped cream on top of the drink. |
Making drink Although Alyssa wasn't too keen about eating Salmon, she decided that she'd at least take a small bite of the one that she had made. So she picked up the smallest roll and popped it into her mouth and chewed. She was actually surprised that it really didn't taste as bad as she had thought it would be. Now that she had tried it, she decided that she would keep the rest aside to ear later. Now for the drink recipe. Text Cut: Ingredients Text Cut: Soda recipe Alyssa read the recipe and started gathering the ingredients for the drink and decided that she would pick the cherry syrup. Looking at the directions on the recipe she picked up the bottle of syrup, poured seven tablespoons of it into her measuring spoon and poured the comtents of her spoon into a 20oz glass. Once the last drop was added, she grabbed a pair of ice tongs, grabbed some ice and added that to the glass. Once that was done she added the 1/4 cup of Half and half creamer into the glass. Alyssa reviewed the directions again before picking up the bottle of club soda and pouring it it into her glass, adding it into her mixture. She then placed the bottle aside and picking up a stick stirrer, she stirred her drink, making sure that the syrup, cream and club soda were all thoroughly mixed together. Now for the finishing touch. Alyssa picked up the can of whipped cream, shook it back and forth, before removing the lid. She pushed the nozzle at the top sideways, and squirted the whipped cream on top of her drink. Round and round, she squirted, until the surface of the drink was covered with a layer of whipped cream. Then sticking her finger into the whipped cream, she scooped up a little and stuck it into her mouth. "Yum" Alyssa said while tasting the whipped cream. Alyssa resisted the urge to pour more whipped cream directly into her mouth and quickly placed the lid back onto the can. She reviewed the directions in her recipe one more time to make sure that she had followed all the directions, scratching them off one by one. Text Cut: Soda Recipe |
Post #1 - Making soda drink Amelia wasn't sure if she wanted to try the salmon things or not, so she just decided to move the plate to the side and start with the next recipe they were doing. Soda did seem very tasty right now because she was thirsty. After copying down everything she gathered up the ingredients, deciding to go with the strawberry flavoured syrup today. Moving the cup closer to her, she poured in the strawberry flavoured syrup carefully and then added the ice. Then she added the half and half creamer and club soda. She stirred it all well while making sure that she didn't spill any of it all over the place. She didn't want a sticky glass or sticky hands. When she was done stirring, she topped it all with whipped cream. Quote:

into a past mixture using the soft cheese with the garlic and herbs. She then layed the slices of slamon down and spreaded each slice with the cream cheese paste mixture. After all of them had the cream cheese paste mixture, she began to roll then up, starting from the thinner of the two ends. All of the slamon were rolled she moved them to a plate. SPOILER!!: Ingredients SPOILER!!: Directions |
Making drink Now there were onto making a drink, something which Gideon had to admit he had heard of and may have even tried once before. He had a few Italian family members, some still with ties to Italy and had visited them when he was younger. Maybe when he tasted it, he would remember yes or no about previous experience. So like before he copied the ingrediants list and steps before going to work on his mixing and preparing. Quote:
Yep...definantly familiar. |

Salmon Post #2 Nerida picked up some cheese and sprinkled it on each rolled salmon and then with some basil. Then taking some tooth picks she put one in each of the Salmon Rolls and then put some extra cheese on it. She couldnt wait to try it! SPOILER!!: Ingredients SPOILER!!: Directions |
Italian Soda! <3 SPOILER!!: RECIPE&dIRECTIONS! Jayden nodded happily as she listened to the teacher's directions, a smile forming on her face when they were granted permission to sample a few of the rolls. Jayden loved food, especially new ones she had never tried before. She took time to pop one of the rolls in her mouth, and her tastebuds exploded! "Yumm!" She groaned, all of the spicing and the smoky flavouring of the salmon worked really well, and she couldn't wait to try the next food and drink project. Now it was time to make some Italian sodas... Jayden measured the strawberry syrup carefully into her cup, adding ice - It already smelled terrific! She then added the club soda, stirred and proceeded to take a few sips. Pure heaven. |
