Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 16 The secret of foodies

But anything is worth trying.

"Try it, no matter what the result is, it's better than nothing."

Johanna nodded.

She glanced at Lu Ke and sighed silently: "Thank you."

Lu Ke smiled: "Don't say that, we are all Slytherins, so naturally we should help each other."

Johanna stood up: "Well, see you in the history of magic class in the afternoon."

Lu Ke nodded: "Goodbye."

Johanna left after saying that.

Lu Ke sat on the sofa, thought about it carefully, and felt that this morning was not a waste of time.

The most important things, the Dean of Slytherin and the Hogwarts job plan, have been completed. After that, it is about studying hard and building a good relationship with classmates.

Lu Ke suddenly felt that he had become an absolutely good student.

While he was thinking this, he couldn't help but shake his head.

Forget about being a good student, it's better to be a student who has a good relationship with the teacher and a bad relationship with the classmates. Anyway, friends are like that. There are always people of the same age in the school, and there will always be two or three people with compatible personalities.

Lu Ke thought endlessly while returning to the dormitory.

He has the habit of taking a nap, and he has classes very late in the afternoon anyway.

In the afternoon, Lu Ke, who was woken up by Pallas, followed his Slytherin classmates out of the dormitory, climbed the stairs, and arrived at the History of Magic classroom on the second floor.

Lu Ke casually found a seat and sat down, and not long after, Johanna sat next to him.

Other students also entered the classroom one after another, and Lu Ke also saw Ravenclaw students.

Although he was curious as to why it was not the classic snake-lion happy enemy combination, Lu Ke didn't say anything.

The bell rang, but the professor didn't show up.

Lu Ke looked at the blackboard calmly.

Then a translucent shadow passed through the blackboard and entered the classroom.

It was undoubtedly a ghost.

The noise spread through the classroom and eventually all the little wizards noticed their ghost teacher.

"Class begins now."

This ghost teacher had almost no interaction with the students. He just opened the textbook and began to read what he said.

I don't know why, but even Lu Ke, who is very interested in the history of magic, feels unable to listen carefully.

That's probably because of the accent. Professor Binns always speaks in a slurred voice and in a low voice, which can easily make people fall asleep.

So Lu Ke started to turn over the book by himself.

As an old student who has been in school for more than ten years, Lu Ke has his own way of reading.

To put it simply, watch it several times and use the easiest way every time.

Lu Ke had already read all the textbooks once when he was working in Diagon Alley, and now he is reading them for the second time.

According to his own habit, the second time he read it, he picked out the things that he couldn't understand the first time and the things that he was particularly interested in and read it carefully.

The little wizards in the classroom were talking louder and louder.

Then Johanna came over curiously: "What are you doing?"

Lu Ke, who is still reading the textbook seriously, is simply a monster.

"I'm reading the textbook, look at this, Goblin Rebellion."

Lu Ke pointed out the part he was looking at to Johanna.

"Don't you think this is similar to the current situation?"

Johanna looked surprised: "Do you really think so?"

Lu Ke nodded: "Don't you think goblins are very similar to today's Muggle wizards?"

Johanna glanced at Lu Ke: "Isn't it a mysterious figure like a goblin?"

Lu Ke shook his head: "Because the goblin won in the end."

This class was spent in Lu Ke and Johanna's casual chat.

After class, Lu Ke followed his classmates back to the dormitory, and then stayed in the common room until dinner time.

Lu Ke took advantage of this time to complete the homework assigned to him by Professor McGonagall.

Only after he actually started writing did he understand the need to do so. Although Lu Ke's thinking was clear when talking to Professor McGonagall, he still felt that it was not convincing enough when he actually wrote the paper. He had to think more seriously about the problem and consider all aspects. Make it clear.

By the time it was finally done, it was already dinner time.

So Lu Ke decided to go to the kitchen to reward himself.

Entering the kitchen, Lu Ke received a warm welcome from the house elves. His cooking skills have conquered all the house elves, and now Lu Ke is the well-deserved executive chef of Hogwarts.

But this time, Lu Ke was going to teach the house elves the mainstay of traditional Chinese cooking, the most distinctive technique: stir-frying.

Of course, some people will say that this technique is used all over the world, but only in China, this technique has the longest history and the most complicated variants, and has been developed to the extreme.

Lu Ke stood in front of the stove, flanked by the house elf who was responsible for helping with magic.

"The iron pan that conducts heat evenly and the fat that melts organic aromatic substances are the soul of stir-fry."

"The key technique of stir-frying is the control of heat, which actually implies the essence of stir-frying, which is to complete the process of heating food quickly and accurately."

"As for heating, the main things to control are temperature and time."

Lu Ke explained while doing it, and quickly explained all the key points of speculation.

“The key is to use the fat to bring all the flavors together and stick to the ingredients with perfect and precise ripeness.”

After speaking, Lu Ke placed a plate of mutton fried with green onions on the table.

The house elves each took a taste, and then let out exaggerated exclamations.

Pallas then unceremoniously took up all the remaining mutton on the plate.

"Magic is a very useful tool. If you have any magic that can make all the ingredients have the same temperature, it can also be used for cooking. In short, means exist for the purpose. If the purpose can be achieved, another means can be used. Nothing is wrong.”

Lu Ke thought of many ancient trades that had disappeared.

"We must keep pace with the times and don't stick to means. The purpose is what really matters."

After saying that, Lu Ke started again and fried himself a plate of cabbage and a plate of fried noodles.

Classes were over, and the house elves still had to prepare dinner for the entire Hogwarts teachers and students, who quickly dispersed.

Only one house elf remained in front of Lu Ke.

"Can I have a taste, Mr. Lu Ke?"

Lu Ke nodded.

Then the house elf took a bite of the baby bok choy.

"Why...this smell..."

The house elf brought out another plate of cabbage from behind, which was stir-fried just like Lu Ke's.

Lu Ke took a bite with his chopsticks and nodded: "It is indeed different. This is my secret."

The house elf lowered his head.

Lu Ke couldn't help but laugh: "Actually, it's okay to tell you, but don't tell others."
