Kurumi immediately regretted asking from the look she had received, but the Gryffindor was genuinely confused and looked over when Amelia asked a follow up question. Truth was, Kurumi was wondering as well. The introduction had implied a more European view of food, so she just wanted to make sure that her notes were complete and organized - no mislabeling things as it were.

While she waited, Kurumi continued to use her spatula to 'paint' her strips of salmon and she was reminded of home suddenly. Her mother often ate salmon and cream cheese on bagels in spring. She bit her bottom lip and tried to regain her focus as she scooped some more of the mixture from her bowl and smeared it onto the last strip of salmon. Now that that step had been finished, Kurumi set the spatula back in the bowl and looked at the salmon. She wished that there were some gloves for them to wear, this looked as though it could get messy and touching raw fish and meats was always something that worried the Gryffindor. At least she knew her hands were clean.

Kurumi turned her cutting board around so that the thinner ends were facing towards her and began to slowly roll them up. She had to use her hand from time to time to try and keep the filling from spilling out of a few of them since she had overstuffed them, but things worked out somehow - even if she had to return some of the filling to the bowl. Wiping her hands first, Kurumi took a plate from inside her basket and set the rolls on them. This proved to be a little more difficult than expected and sort of wished that the instructions were to tookpick them before moving. Might help keep them together or something. Avoiding mild disaster, Kurumi wiped her hands again and then crushed some cheese and basil in her hands before sprinkling it over the rolls.

Removing the bits of cheese and basil from her hands with a towel again, Kurumi removed the cap on the container of toothpics and screwed each one and then put the cap back on it and then set it to the side.
