"I will prepare the pounder ready while you clean and mix the ingredients." Espio responded as he got a thermos out that contained boiled water. "I had soaked the rice last night, so all that is left is to drain the water and heat them up under a fire."

He had an electronic stove set on the table next to the ingredients for convenience. The ninja almost brought a manual one where one had to prepare the fire under the stove, but he figured that would take too much time. What a dork.
