Chapter 1331 The short-lived cousin of the heroine of the Ten Thousand Yuan Household (12)
Let’s talk about Xu Yin, since a bottle of wine last night brought her closer to the two master chefs Zhao and Hong, the three of them... Oh, I forgot that there is also Xiao Guo. The four of them work together, so the atmosphere should not be too harmonious.
Learn from each other and make progress together.
She saw that the breakfast window had just the same items every day: meat buns, vegetable buns, white steamed buns, white rice porridge, millet porridge, vegetarian noodle soup, and shredded pork noodle soup.
I asked Master Hong why he didn’t develop more flavors of steamed buns, such as cheap and delicious shredded potato buns, shredded radish buns, vermicelli buns, fish-flavored shredded pork buns...
Similarly, the noodle toppings could also be richer. Recently, you can often see eels brought from the countryside to the city for sale. Occasionally, there are also river shrimps. The cost is lower than pork. Shredded eels and shelled river shrimps with the middle bones removed are used to make fried eel noodles or fried eel noodles with shrimps. Come to think of it. Fresher and more delicious than shredded pork toppings.
After she was busy in the morning, she went to the street corner to round up the eels that a farmer had caught and sold. She mentioned that the store planned to use the non-business hours to make some oil-fried eel toppings.
“What are you doing with so many tricks? If we sell well or poorly, we all get that salary.” Master Hong said at first.
After Xu Yin made it, he took a bite and immediately decided to add the more seasonal fried eel noodles to the noodle menu at noon tomorrow.
Xiao Xu paid for the eel today, and after it was made, it only had so few toppings. It was not enough for them to try it.
Unexpectedly, a customer came to the store to grab food.
“It smells so good! What’s delicious today?” Wang Zhao opened the door and walked in.
Lu Xiaoyan: “It’s not even business hours yet…”
"I know, I'm here to order food." Wang Zhao interrupted her and approached Master Hong, "Yo! I told you, I smelled a fragrance before I even arrived at the restaurant. It turned out to be fried eel in oil! Are you planning to make noodle toppings? Pop-up eel noodles! I haven’t eaten them in years! I ordered them for lunch... Well, let me ask, which chef made these toppings?"
Master Hong didn’t want to talk to him, but when people asked, he couldn’t help but answer: “Master Xu made it.”
“Is it the new Master Xu? They are making eel noodles at noon! I want two portions! One with noodles and one with shredded eel.”
"Snapped!"
He slapped the money and food stamps on the counter.
…”
Master Hong felt Master Zhao's frustration last night: "There is no fried eel noodles today, but there will be some tomorrow."
"Then what is this?" Wang Zhao looked at the fried eel in his bowl with a half-smile, "I don't think I can recognize that this is eel!"
“It is true that there is no fried eel noodles for sale today. This is the eel that Master Xu bought with his own money to try.”
"Then I can buy two to try!" Wang Zhao didn't wait for him to finish speaking, dropped the money and tickets and left, "I'll pick them up when the business hours are up."
…”
Master Hong didn’t know whether to feel aggrieved or sigh: “I can’t save it!”
The toppings of the fried eel noodles are no longer preserved!
His status as a master pastry chef is also a bit precarious.
Lu Xiaoyan smacked the melon seeds and asked curiously: "Master Hong, who is that little guy with the flat head just now? So arrogant? It was him last night who took the lead and insisted on Xiao Xu cooking for them. It was really making a scene."
"I'm not familiar with him either. I only know his name. I know his father, who is in charge of dispatching at the Power Supply Bureau. His grandfather and grandmother are both retired from the Power Supply Bureau. There are several people in the family who earn a living, and they have a lot of money in their pockets. .”
“The Power Supply Bureau and our hotel are not on the same line, why are we afraid of him?”
“His grandfather was the secretary of the bureau before he retired. It’s better not to offend him if possible. Besides, it’s not a good thing if word spreads about us using the hotel to open a small stove. It’s better if the manager doesn’t care about it, but if he does...”
“What will happen?”
"Huh? So serious?" Lu Xiaoyan was too scared to continue eating melon seeds. "Then give him two bowls. Anyway, the store will have eels tomorrow, so we can eat more tomorrow if we want." "..."
The wall grass falls really fast.
Master Hong went to the back kitchen to discuss with Xu Yin. The eel she bought with her own money today might have to be given to customers in two portions with toppings.
Xu Yin didn't care. She originally bought it for everyone to try. She wanted to eat it herself. The system warehouse had a lot of purely ecological wild eels, both alive and cooked.
As soon as the business hours came, Wang Zhao appeared at the door of the hotel on time: "Is the fried eel noodles I ordered ready?"
Lu Xiaoyan rolled her eyes inwardly, but she looked more enthusiastic than the previous few days - she was really frightened by Master Hong's words.
If her father's iron rice bowl was smashed as soon as it came into her hands, how could she have the dignity to see her parents?
“It’ll be ready soon. Have you brought your lunch box?”
“Here, the toppings are in the lunch box, and the soup noodles are in the thermal bucket.”
Wang Zhao not only brought a lunch box today, but also specially brought an iron thermos bucket that can hold soup.
Lu Xiaoyan took it from the kitchen and gave it to Xiao Guo.
Xiao Guo scooped up the cooked noodles, put them into a thermos bucket, scooped out the broth, and put in a few blanched rapeseeds. Xu Yin's sauce-fried shredded eel topping was packed separately in the lunch box.
Wang Zhao could not help but swallow when he smelled the aroma of fried eel in oil, closed the lid and hurried back to Rui's courtyard.
"Brother Rui! Brother Rui! The fried eel noodles are here! You will be satisfied today."
Rui Xijin only drank a bowl of millet porridge in the morning, and she was indeed hungry now. While Wang Zhao was still serving the noodles, he had already picked up a topping and started eating.
“It’s really good!”
"I think it's good!" Wang Zhao's expression was a little proud, "When I went there at noon, I heard them chatting. When I asked if the toppings were made by the new chef, I immediately ordered two bowls. Smart, right? Originally, we could only eat these fried eel noodles tomorrow."
Rui Xijin nodded, and the next second, she spat out the noodle soup she just drank: "The soup stock is too thick and greasy!"
…”
Wang Zhao took a sip.
He thinks it’s okay! Although it is a bit oily, it is quite fragrant. Of course, it is not as delicious without the toppings.
“Stop drinking the soup, Rui Ge, eat the toppings and noodles.”
“The noodles are not mixed well and not cooked well. They are overcooked and not chewy enough.”
…”
Brother Rui, it’s not easy for you to return to the city alive!
In the end, Rui Xijin only ate the shredded eel topping.
Wang Zhao did all the remaining noodles and soup.
His stomach was so full that he could not stand up.
He simply slumped on the chair, rubbed his stomach and groaned: "Brother Rui, you should cook porridge and drink it tonight. I've asked about it. The new chef will be on the day shift this month. He will take over at one o'clock in the afternoon. It will be the same in the evening." He is an old cook, and his craftsmanship has not improved in eight hundred years. I am tired of eating it, let alone you."
Rui Xijin leaned on the only surviving Taishi chair, closed her eyes and said lazily "Hmm", and said nothing more.
Just when Wang Zhao thought he was asleep, he suddenly heard him say: "Ah Zhao, what is the name of the new cook? How old is he? Is there pressure to support a family? If I invite him to work in Ruifu Building, how much salary will he be willing to pay? ?”
!!”
