Chapter 148 This master deserves it(1/2)
Sixi dumplings, four small grids, each grid is covered with ingredients of different colors. Xiang diced, ham diced, spinach stems and egg skin are all steamed very beautifully, with bright colors, as if they are boiled in water with lard added.
It looks like green cabbage hearts that have been rinsed and taken out.
The meat filling under the ingredients is a traditional dumpling filling that meets popular tastes.
Of course, it's not that traditional either.
Before making Sixi dumplings, Qin Huai always used a meat filling of pork, shiitake mushrooms and diced carrots. But hasn’t he made too much fruit this time? He has been making a meat filling of diced pork, bamboo shoots and carrot puree every day.
, Qin Huai felt that carrot puree was better than diced carrots.
The taste of carrot puree is not as strong as that of carrots, so it is more suitable to be mixed into meat fillings. Moreover, after steaming, the meat fillings can lock in the juice better and taste better.
Therefore, Qin Huai did some routine modifications to the recipe and changed the meat filling of Sixi Dumplings to pork, shiitake mushrooms and carrot puree.
The effect is very good.
It was unanimously recognized by all diners except Ouyang.
As for why Ouyang didn't agree with him - this guy ate too much and didn't taste it the first time he ate it. Qin Huai changed the meat filling, which made Qin Huai so angry that he canceled his right to taste it.
Of course, it doesn't matter whether you cancel it or not, because Qin Huai came to Suzhou on the third day after the formula was completely determined, and those who participated in the trial only ate it for two days longer than Ouyang.
It can be said that if the Sixi dumplings made by Qinhuai before were the basic type, then the current Sixi dumplings are definitely the upgraded plus type.
In the past, Qin Luo could only eat 18 Sixi dumplings in one meal, but now he can eat 25.
As for why Qin Huai knew that Qin Luo could eat 25—
On the last day of the food trial, this greedy girl ate 25 of them without mercy. As a result, she couldn't sleep all night and asked for leave to go to the hospital the next day.
Everyone who came to work at Huangji Restaurant caught up today and ate the improved Sixi dumplings in the plus version.
The Qinhuai Steamed Four-Xi Dumplings are made using the largest basket in the kitchen, which is covered with a full layer. It is very shocking when you open it, and you will feel like you have traveled into the world of a Chinese young master.
Huang Anyao is obviously someone who has watched Little Master of China.
After Qin Huai and Zheng Siyuan pointed out where the dumplings and wontons were, Huang Anyao chose the Sixi dumplings that could be eaten directly without any hesitation and opened the cage by himself.
A large steamer full of brightly colored, beautiful and fragrant Sixi dumplings shocked Huang Anyao.
"Yellow——golden ratio siomai!"
Huang Anyao had completely forgotten what Qin Huai told him about food. He carefully picked out two with tongs without covering the steamer lid. Anyway, there must be someone coming later to get the Four-Xi dumplings. He blew the Four-Xi dumplings on the plate while holding the plate.
gas.
Not everyone has Qin Luo's iron mouth.
Huang Jia is already counting wontons.
"Who wants to eat wontons?" Huang Jia asked loudly.
Although it was theoretically already time to go to work, Huang Jia felt that it was rare for breakfast to be included in the store, so he might as well eat something first to make himself tired.
Zheng Siyuan personally made the yarn wontons and bubble wontons. If you don't eat them, you would be sorry for yourself.
"Me, me, me!" Huang Anyao raised his hand actively while holding the plate, and stepped out of the way to let others pick up the Four-Xi dumplings.
Qin Huai felt a little strange when he saw everyone eating wontons and dumplings so actively. He turned around and asked Zheng Siyuan in a low voice: "Didn't everyone have breakfast this morning?"
It shouldn't be. Huangji Restaurant usually doesn't include breakfast. We don't go to work until 9 o'clock. Once we get to work, it's hard physical work. 1
I don’t have lunch until 1 o’clock. I definitely need to eat more in the morning to feel full.
Zheng Siyuan glanced at Qin Huai with the look of a man who is so full that he doesn't know how hungry he is, and asked: "If you just had dinner, but my uncle told you that he was going to cook two delicious dishes himself, I would like to ask you if you have eaten.
,did you eat?"
"Of course I didn't eat it." Qin Huai said without hesitation, "But Master Huang and I can't compare."
"The principles are similar." Zheng Siyuan glanced at Qin Huai, "You can make rice cakes and I can make them?"
"You go ahead and make it. What you make tastes better than mine. Anyway, we will sell it tomorrow. If I have time in the afternoon, I will make another batch."
Zheng Siyuan then asked: "You will make the crab shell roe?"
"Well, I'll make the crab shell roe and sesame cakes together, and wait until 11:30 to start baking. But you may need to fry the minced meat. I'm still frying the minced meat now..."
Qin Huai shut up mid-sentence because he found that he was a little unfounded.
At Huangji Restaurant, you don’t have to worry about the minced meat being fried.
Among those present who are eating Sixi dumplings and wontons, except Huang Anyao, who can cook better minced meat than him?
"Okay, I will also make part of the jujube and yam cake. What did you think last night? If you give Huang Jia such a long order, you won't be able to finish it even if someone helps you. The sales volume of Huangji Restaurant is higher than you imagined.
That’s an exaggeration. Every time my uncle asked me to help, I worked from morning till night.”
"I just thought that these are the things I do better. It's good to write more. There must be one that is popular." Qin Huai explained, "What is the list you wrote?"
"Fresh meat mooncakes and Dingsheng cakes." Zheng Siyuan said.
"No more?"
"No." Zheng Siyuan said expressionlessly, "You will know why by noon."
Qin Huai:?
Qin Huai didn't know the reason yet, but many people in the kitchen already knew it, because the Sixi dumplings had been cooled and everyone ate them.
Let's put it this way, Huang Anyao had only one thought in his mind the moment he entered the dumplings.
If he were crying and grabbing Qin Huai's arm, begging him to stay at Huangji Restaurant permanently, offering him a super high salary and giving him a quarter of the shares, would he be able to keep Qin Huai?
When I think about Qin Huai saying at dinner last night that he knows at least 120 kinds of dim sum, if each one is as good as the Si Xi Dumplings in front of him.
Huang Anyao is willing to give him half of the shares.
No more, or his father will beat him to death.
Huang Anyao felt that if he could eat Qinhuai's snacks every morning, including 120 kinds of snacks, the same thing every day, but not the same for four months, then it would not be a troublesome thing to inherit the restaurant, participate in the operation, and communicate with suppliers and customers.
The dream of becoming a food critic is not that important. After all, one still has to be down-to-earth and focus on the present.
Place it on the Sixi dumplings in front of you.
Huang Anyao took another bite.
tasty.
Huang Anyao, who has been eating Huang Shengli's dishes since he was a snack, has to praise that these dumplings are really delicious.
From the moment he ate the Sixi dumplings, Huang Anyao felt that Qin Huai must be his half-brother.
His last half-brother was Zheng Siyuan.
Because of their father's relationship, Huang Anyao has had a good relationship with Zheng Siyuan since he was a child. Although he is one year older than Zheng Siyuan, he has been more like Zheng Siyuan's younger brother since he was a child, following Zheng Siyuan's butt and waiting for snacks.
Now-·
I'm sorry Zheng Siyuan, although your craftsmanship is also very good and is on par with Qin Huai's, but there are too few things you are good at. Qin Huai can do 120 things!
Unlike Huang Anyao, who was full of random thoughts and even thought about whether to use half of his shares to retain Qin Huai, Huang Jia didn't hesitate after eating the Sixi dumplings and went straight to Wang Jun.
As Huang Shengli's sixth apprentice, Wang Jun started out late, but his basic skills are very solid.
He is different from most of Huang Shengli's direct disciples. Wang Jun's family owns a small restaurant and has some basic skills. He came to Huangji Restaurant as a handyman at the age of 16. He worked in the kitchen for two years and learned some skills before going to the restaurant.
After working in Shuitai for a year as a fresh food processor, Huang Shengli felt that this young man was very good, although his talent was average.
His basic skills are not very good, but he is better because he endures hardships and stands hard work, and he does things properly and never slacks off, so he accepted him as his apprentice.
Now Wang Jun is still a chef, mainly responsible for helping in the kitchen.
"Lao Liu, today you go help Qin Huai and pick two people in the kitchen who have basic knowledge of criminal cases. Qin Huai doesn't know anything. Please help him more and do all those who can do it. If there are not enough people, tell me and I will order two more.
past.
He just arrived yesterday, and today is his first official day at work. Don't be too tired." Huang Jia whispered, giving Dong Shi a warning look, "Forget it about Dong Shi, he can't control his mouth and will definitely chat with Qin Huai.
, Da Dong can."
Wang Jun still held the Four-Six Dumplings in his hand and nodded solemnly: "Senior Brother, don't worry, Qin Huai will not be exhausted as long as I am here."
Huang Jia gave Wang Jun a look of affirmation, and then walked towards Qin Huai: "Qin Huai, we just discussed it. It's your first day today, so let's count it as work. It's mainly about familiarity and adaptation. You'll have the first meal for the staff."
irresponsible,
So as not to get tired."
Qin Huai was stunned for a moment and said: "Probably not, just do more——"
"Don't do it at noon yet. Wait until the afternoon and see if you want to do it at night." Huang Jia interrupted Qin Huai.
Qin Huai nodded: "Okay."
Then continue working.
Wang Jun quickly recruited good people to help Qin Huai. Whether it was chopping stuffing or processing ingredients, making buns or dumplings, pressing molds or shaping, Wang Jun and the others took over everything. Even Qin Huai felt that he couldn't do it with his own hands.
When adjusting the stuffing, he only needs to adjust the rough proportions, and the rest can be left to others.
To put it bluntly, Qin Huai felt like an emperor when he made dim sum for the first time.
