Baking: Sweet and Savory | Monday, 3rd period

[sharp_as_knives]

To:     Baking Class
Subject: Class, March 30th

Class this week will be held at my house on Phoenix Place, across from the school. Please show up on time and hungry.

Hannibal greeted the students as they filed in and led them to his kitchen. "Given recent events, I doubt very much that your attention will be up to cooking. And I'm given to believe that a bit of spoiling is still a good thing for those of you recovering. So. Today, you will watch me bake. And cook in other ways. Feel free to ask questions, and if you would like to help, just ask. Otherwise, sit and watch, and then you can help carry things to the dining room."



[OOC: Class is at home today, and may also be subject to minor incursions by Hannibal's houseguests.]

Kathy's eyes lit up. "Bibimbap!" she said, "ohmigosh, Dr. Lecter, you made bibimbap!"

For her.

Okay, well, for the whole class, obviously, but the reason it was there was because of her.

Hannibal gave Kathy a little bow and a smile. "I haven't made it before, so you'll have to tell me how I did." Not that he expected it to be anything less than perfect, but you never knew.

Kathy had no intentions of making him wait. She quickly put a small portion onto her plate and tried it.

Oh god it was heaven in her mouth. She had to pause to pile more onto her plate before she could reply.

"Okay, so, I'm pretty sure I'm culturally obligated to inform you that it's good, but it can't possibly hold a candle to any proper bibimbap that's been made by a tiny old ajumma in the heart of Koreatown, right after she berates you for being too thin," Kathy said. "But I'm also pretty sure that there would be a lightning bolt with my name on it if I tried telling a lie that big."

Hannibal laughed. "I will take that critique as read, then. Thank you." He nodded at the pot. "Whatever is left is yours to take with you."

"Thank you so much," Kathy said, reluctantly deciding not to hover over the pot and give the stink-eye to anyone that looked like they were going back for seconds. "Umm, I meant to ask--is your jacket okay?"

You know, the one she'd gotten egg all over?

"Fortunately, it was almost out of season."

That would be a no.

"But you're very welcome for the food."
