If You Dare: 445. Pasta Strainer


Ron Weasley could not for the life of him figure out how to operate this blasted pasta strainer.

He swore some under his breath, before calling down for Hermione. Of course, his wife was already at the bottom of the stairwell.

"What is it this time, Ron?"Hermione asked with a sigh. Ron merely gestured at the pasta strainer in front of him, and Hermione got the message.

"Merlin, Ron, can't you work a simple pasta strainer?" she asked him as she took over the work for demonstration purposes. Ron started to say something about bloody Muggle cooking tools, but Hermione cut him off with a wave of the hand.

Hermione closely inspected the spaghetti inside. "Well, first of all, the pasta is rather underdone. You're going to need to cook it more. Then, when it's done, you take the pasta out of the pot and put it inside the strainer when it's over the sink..."

Her lengthy explanation fell on deaf ears, though. Ron had zoned out completely.

"... And that's how you use a pasta strainer properly. Any questions? Ron? Ron?" Hermione stared at her husband with another sigh, mostly holding back a small laugh.

Ron became conscious again, and blinked his eyes rapidly.

"Sorry, can you repeat that all again?"
