[Today is the first day of Lelouch's Cooking and Baking class! Yaaaaay.
As characters enter the cooking labs, they'll find each station fully equipped with stuff that look brand-spanking-new. Also of note are the fact that each slot in the butcher blocks are numbered, and the fridges in each section are stocked with fruit and a few odd dairy products. Just what they'll need for todays lesson: Fruit Parfaits with some decorative garnishes.]
Welcome, I am Lelouch, and I have decided that I am going to be teaching some cooking classes here. I've been cooking for myself and my sister since I was 10, and while I have had little formal training, I'm going to be showing you what's considered best practice in a professional arrangement where I come from.
Most of what we'll be making will come from most versions of Earth. If you have something you know of from home, we may be able to try it at some date in the future once I am able to obtain whatver the crucial ingredients are.
I'm going to start this class at a rather basic level, so I will not be leaving anyone behind. If you're looking for more of a challenge than this, let me know and I'll do something else for you.
If I'm going to go to all this trouble, there's going to be some rules. The most important one is that if I'm going to give a dome full of criminals access to knives, they will be treated with care and no one will leave this room until every single one of them are accounted for. If you must hurt someone, don't make me responsible for providing the weapon. You will regret that decision. [His face grows more grave during these last couple points, but then settles back into something approaching friendly once he moves on.]
Further, the most important thing is to be safe. Take your time, and try not to get too far ahead of yourself.
[And thenever the showman he spins the chalkboard around, and on it are three different recipes. One berry parfait, one apple cinnamon with (premade) caramel, and one with citrus and some other more exotic fruits.] We'll be starting with fruit parfaits. These will require some knife work, and some basic terms and equipment. If you feel like challenging yourselves, I encourage you to try some of the fruit garnishes I have on my table. Pair off, read through the information you've been given, and I'll be around to help.
((OOC: Each pair of characters will have a stack of papers each with some basic terminology explained and some helpful clipart illustrating some of the harder to succinctly describe terms. There's also a pictorial guide to knife types and sizes and their use, as well as paper copies of each of the recipes, along with suggested layering. He's actually taking this fairly seriously.))
