As they replied Vitor went for the dough that would become one of the wraps. Splitting his attention between them and the dish. Slowly spreading it on the pan he added the olive oil and let it fry for a couple of seconds, only to cook it slightly and give the perfect texture.
Silveira: Last time I was here… Damn… It was almost three years ago… Time flies…
The memories of that visit crossed his head. It felt like a lifetime ago. His expression turned more serious and not wanting to fall for that mood in this moment he began playing with the wooden spoons.
A smile crossed his lips when he recalled that puppet he had seen in old records.
oO What was it called… The French Chef? No… It was European… Oo
The thought of playing around with the spoons and then letting them fly over the kitchen crossed his mind. Sada would likely jump scared, and he was fairly certain that would be some offense even for Nan.
Tempted, he simply swung the spoons in his hands as his smile widened, when he finally recalled the name.
Silveira: You know, next time we have to see this Chef from Earth that I know. I have a feeling you are both going to like him. He’s Swedish.
Sadar: ‘See’? ::confused expression:: Wh-Why would you ‘see’ a chef? For tutoring?
Jovenan: Is he a friend of yours?
Vitor laughed, shaking his head as he stirred the pot, keeping an eye at the pan.
Silveira: In a way. But I am teasing, he is one of the Muppets. Like a puppet, a small plushy that is controlled out of sight. Part of an old comedy show that was transmitted like a video message in peoples homes. Although it was mostly aimed at young audiences it ended up being a comedy show for the whole family.
Vitor lowered the fire on the pot and took the pan, shutting down the nozzle as he kept speaking.
Silveira: The setting is simple and mostly comicall. The Chef speaks in Swedish that doesn’t make any sense, so we don’t really understand what he is saying and his efforts in cooking are just to make us laugh rather than really learn anything.
He took the cooked dough from the pan and set it on the table. Putting the hot pan in the sink.
Holding the two wooden spoons he began waving them as he began to sing along
When he faced them they looked confused. If they weren’t all working he would certainly search a video in his PADD and showed them
Sadar: ::surprised expression:: Huh… I never considered that. I-In that case, I’d be interested to see it as well.
Jovenan: Likewise. It sounds fascinating, though I’m not sure if I understand the humour. And if Swedish is considered difficult to understand and silly, why wasn’t it translated?
Vitor raised an eyebrow, he really needed to show them one of the Chef’s many performances.
Silveira: That is exactly one of the humorous parts. Besides I am certain that he never speaks anything but gibberish. And this is centuries old. Don’t you have any kind of kids shows in your home planets? You know, that teaches things but is also funny?
Sadar: Response
Jovenan: We didn’t have anything like that. The most material aimed at children involved teaching them the importance of obeying the law and treating others well.
Vitor tipped his head as he reached for the dough roller. He began to extend it, so that he could pour the filling.
Silveira: That’s good but, not generalizing, I think we humans need that extra humor in our lives. So even in teaching, we shouldn’t take things too seriously. ::He grinned at them as he went to the boiling pot to check it.:: But that’s just me.
Sadar: Response
Vitor nodded, finding it curious how different their cultures were.
He grabbed the vegetables and started cutting them with a knife in quick movements.
Jovenan: Is the Swedish chef from whom you found interest in cooking? You’re like a professional! Where did you learn it?
Vitor stopped cutting, raising his head to Nan as he laughed.
Silveira: Admittedly he was influential, but I began to learn by watching my grandparents. When I was a kid I tried to mimic them, and they have different influences. My paternal grandparents have their own farm on Earth, although their main job was teaching, we spent a lot of time there and we had the chance to pick and cook our own food.
My maternal grandparents on the other hand had retired and mom got their trading company. They settled in Risa and although they weren’t very fond of cooking, they do love the fish and fruits there. So they learned and eventually taught me as well. ::He shrugged and returned to the quick vegetable chopping.:: And how about you both? How did you start cooking?
Sadar/Jovenan: Response
Vitor smiled and nodded. It was interesting how each had his story, but there were common links between them. He added the vegetables to the pot and began to stir it.
Silveira: Interesting. It's nice to learn a bit more about both of you. I am glad you agreed to join me. Thank you.
Sadar/Jovenan: Response
Vitor smiled. It was a good change in pace from the mission and their shore leave shenanigans.
It not only became a nice bonding moment, but it also was going to be a great meal.
Silveira: Remember that now, as cooking partners, we need to share our secret ingredients.
Sadar/Jovenan: Response
Vitor grinned looking at the pot.
Silveira: Oh don’t be shy, you know what I mean, that secret ingredient we always put on our cooking that makes it just to the point.
