Welcome to another edition of the Cooking Cauldron.

Today's guests are the infamous Malfoy family & their army of house elves who actually do the cooking. I don't think one of these people cook. EVER! I suppose trying to lead the death eaters and help the dark lord makes one way to busy to cook. Thank Goodness for the House elves!

This is a Family that likes to make a statement. They want you to know that they are superior in every way. To show this, they eat only the most expensive of meals. Currently the family is on a Kobe Beef kick. After all they are quite pale & need to keep their iron up!

So I present to you a recipe for Kobe(Wagyu) Beef!
