Shai sets out the ingredients, explains each of them when they're not of any earthly origin (every time she finds something from Janirak she buys it, regardless of cost) and walks him through the hows and whys of the recipe.
Her father was an avid cook, forever spoiling his wives with elaborate, lavish meals. She has none of his finesse and there are only a few recipes she actually remembers - she was a teenager who didn't have much time for her parents - but she embellishes what she's forgotten until the tastes approximate. It's the best she's got.
Once everything's set and ready to marinate, she rinses her hands in the sink and heaves a dramatic sigh.]
