Chapter 156 I want to make progress too much

The technique of the bone-setting shop master was very superb. When Qin Huai returned from the bone setting, he fell asleep for the first time and slept until 7:30 the next day. It was almost 8 o'clock when Huang Ji arrived.

Zheng Siyuan finished making a batch of wontons and cooked a small bowl for himself to eat.

Seeing that Zheng Siyuan had already eaten, Qin Huai twisted his neck in embarrassment: "Sorry, I got up late."

Zheng Siyuan had no reaction and asked, "What did you do this morning? Chicken noodle soup?"

This was Qin Huai's plan yesterday morning.

According to Qin Huai's original plan, since he had such an appropriate opportunity to make employee meals, he might as well practice making chicken noodle soup for 10 days and a half, since everyone loves to eat it.

But wasn't this a new side mission triggered at noon? The plan couldn't keep up with the change, not to mention that I got up late today.

"Make shaomai," Qin Huai said, "mutton shaomai."

It's not that Qin Huai doesn't want to make crab roe shaomai, it's mainly that he doesn't know how. Compared with ordinary glutinous rice siomai, Qinhuai mutton siomai is better, and Qin Luo likes to eat it more.

It seems a bit abrupt to learn how to cook crab roe siomai now, not to mention that Qin Huai has not made siomai for a long time and is not very good at it.

Let’s practice the mutton siomai for a day, and then make the crab roe siomai tomorrow.

Zheng Siyuan had long been accustomed to Qin Huai's behavior of making different breakfast every morning. He nodded and put down the bowl and helped Qin Huai cook a small bowl of crepe wontons without thinking about it.

Qin Huai started kneading the dough.

Compared with the noodles for making steamed buns and steamed buns, the proofing time for making siomai skin noodles is very short. If you have a helper, it will be relatively time-saving to make siomai.

Qin Huai has no helper now.

Zheng Siyuan stood at the edge, eating wontons and watching Qin Huai mix the fillings.

The recipe for Qinhuai's mutton siomai was found online and has basically not been changed.

Mix the chopped mutton stuffing with onion and ginger, add soaked pepper water and stir until dry, add soy sauce and black pepper to taste, then repeatedly add the cooked bone soup, stir repeatedly until the meat stuffing is close to the water stuffing The state is the perfect meat filling for the finished product.

Qin Huai himself doesn't like to eat the mutton siomai he makes because he always feels that the siomai still tastes like mutton, and Qin Huai doesn't like the smell.

But Qin Luo likes it very much. In Qin Luo's words, if the mutton is completely made into a smell-free state, then it is not mutton. Mutton must have a slight smell of mutton to be delicious.

Qin Huai didn't comment on this. He knew what Qin Luo said made sense, but he just didn't like to eat it.

Maybe Qin Huai simply doesn't like mutton.

This is also the reason why Qin Huai didn't change the recipe of mutton siomai. He doesn't like to eat mutton. He feels that he is not qualified to change the recipe that was made online and approved by Qin Luo.

"Your shaomai is very ordinary." Zheng Siyuan commented pertinently, "No wonder I've never seen you make shaomai."

"My Shaomai cooking is very average." Qin Huai agreed, "Have you ever eaten mutton Shaomai?"

"Have eaten it." Zheng Siyuan nodded, "There is a master named Liu in Chang'an who specializes in mutton siu mai. The craftsmanship is passed down from his family and is excellent."

"Seven or eight years ago, I went there to eat it once because of its reputation. It is indeed well-deserved. The meat filling is just right, juicy and fat, and the roasted wheat skin is as paper-like and slightly translucent. I can't tell what seasonings are used in the craftsmanship passed down from family to family, but I can't tell. Definitely no black pepper.”

What Zheng Siyuan meant was that the meat filling of Master Liu's mutton siu mai did not use black pepper.

Qin Huai made a note of it and decided to eat it if he had the chance.

Professionals are good. They know exactly where they are, which chef, and which dish they are good at. Unlike him, he doesn't know what to eat even if he travels to other places. If you click on the pictures and food recommendation posts, you may be too popular. If you click on the Dianping app to see the rankings, you may be trying to gain points. If you research and study, there is a high probability that you will end up in an Internet celebrity restaurant that is not so delicious.

Don’t talk anymore. If you talk too much, you will shed tears.

"Is the crab roe shaomai particularly famous here?" Qin Huai asked knowingly.

"It's famous, but not much is made." Zheng Siyuan said, "Nowadays, there are more people selling crab roe buns, and crab roe buns are profitable."

Zheng Siyuanjing tells the truth.

"I checked the recipe for crab roe shaomai on my way back yesterday, and found that the recipes online were sparse and mixed. Some recipes used egg yolks, and some used crab roe. Which one is authentic?" Qin Huai asked.

"They are all considered authentic." Zheng Siyuan said, "Whether or not crab roe is used depends on the season, and also depends on the skill of the master who makes crab roe Shaomai."

"In the season when crabs are plump, like now, it is of course best to use crab roe. But if you use real crab roe, it will be difficult to remove the fishy smell from Shaomai."

"Whether it's crab roe or egg yolk, the filling of siu mai is always shrimp filling. If you know how to make shrimp filling, you should know the crab shell roe. Shrimp filling dim sum itself is difficult to make, and adding heavy ingredients will cover up the shrimp meat. The taste of the shrimp cannot be tasted, but if you don’t add any condiments, it will be too bland and tasteless.”

"Normal shrimp-filled dim sum is already difficult to make, let alone one with fresh crab roe. With crab roe, it is difficult to remove the fishy smell without mixing it with sesame oil, Shaoxing wine, onions, **** and garlic. If the technique is a little worse, you may have to add Pepper suppresses the flavor, but once pepper is added to the shrimp-filled snack, the whole flavor changes.”

"What you eat with crab roe shaomai is the freshness of shrimps and crabs. In those days, shrimp and crabs were cheap, and there were still many stores willing to sell crab roe shaomai. Now fresh shrimps are expensive, and plump crabs are even more expensive. The difficulty of making them lies here. The customer thinks it's normal. , with such a high price here, 8 out of 10 customers will fall out. Unless the dim sum chef is very confident in his skills, who is willing to do such a thankless job, losing money, making a fuss, and possibly ruining his own reputation? Where are the snacks?”

"So most of the crab roe shaomai on the market are filled with egg yolk, pork mixed with shrimp. They are cheap, taste good, and are more suitable for the public's taste."

"The authentic crab roe siomai you imagine is most likely only sold in big restaurants."

Zheng Siyuan described the difficulty of crab roe siu mai as extremely difficult, but Qin Huai's eyes grew brighter the more he listened.

Admittedly, crab roe siomai is really difficult to make.

But what’s the most important thing about crab roe shaomai?

Season it!

What is the most awesome thing about Qin Huai?

Season it!

Professional counterpart, my family!

Moreover, as soon as you hear the crab roe siomai, you will know that it does not require much heat and fingering.

Thinking of this, Qin Huai burst into tears.

It took me so long to get the game system, but I finally came across a professional counterpart.

At this time, someone may ask, isn’t Shaomai skin important?

Shaomai skin is also very difficult. Good lotus leaf skin is not so easy to roll out.

Qin Huai has only one thing to say about this:

His noodles are about to become more advanced.

"Siyuan, can you know how to cook crab roe Shaomai?" Qin Huai looked at Zheng Siyuan with bright eyes.

Zheng Siyuan:?

Aren't you practicing fire? Weren't you still practicing Guo'er some time ago? You fall in love with everyone you see, want to practice after listening to everyone, you are too fast.

"I don't know much about it." Zheng Siyuan shook his head directly, "But my dad does."

"When will Uncle Zheng come back?"

"Um...next week?"

"You must tell me when Uncle Zheng comes back. I will visit and thank Uncle Zheng!"

.

That day, Huangji’s employees ate the mediocre mutton siomai cooked by Qin Huai himself.

Faced with the mutton siomai that was obviously below the standard, everyone did not feel that their idol was shattered and that a rising star was about to fall from the altar. They even felt that this was the way it should be.

Qin Huai finally has some snacks that he is not so good at.

Chef Qin, who is unrivaled in all types of breakfasts in the breakfast industry, finally encountered Waterloo!

Great, Qin Huai is a normal person.

After eating a mediocre breakfast, everyone started to go to work. Life at work is always boring and busy.

Qinhuai’s dim sum today is Wudingbao and fermented steamed buns. Tangerine peel tea is sold as usual, with a limit of 1,314 servings.

Unlike the hot seller in Yunzhong Canteen, tangerine peel tea did not cause a big response in Huangji Restaurant, at least it is not as well-known as the fermented steamed buns. Many guests only regard tangerine peel tea as a decent dessert. Everyone orders one portion during the meal. If one portion is not enough, they will have another one. If two portions are not enough, they will pack one and take it home.

If they are not sold out at noon, there will definitely be leftovers until the evening.

Qin Huai analyzed it for a few minutes and felt that it might be a problem with the audience.

The area around Yunzhong Canteen is full of social animals. Except for the residents of the community, every office worker outside is a humble wage laborer. The heart-warming buff of tangerine peel tea is a life-saving medicine for migrant workers who are about to start working, but it is just a spice for the rich who already have a prosperous life.

There are not many ordinary social animals who can spend money in Huangji Restaurant.

No matter how much Qian Zhongheng's family loves to eat fermented steamed buns, they can't be willing to eat them every day. Even if they could, their wallets wouldn't support them.

The customers who can come to Huangji Restaurant for a casual meal every now and then are all serious and wealthy people.

Not to mention Gong Liang. As long as he wanted, he could directly own more than 50% of the shares of Huangji Restaurant.

Now Gong Liang regrets a little bit why he didn't ask for 50% of the shares of Huangji Restaurant back then, so that he could be the owner of the restaurant and ask Qin Huai, the new Baiyan dim sum chef, to make him some noodles that he had been thinking about day and night. Son.

That's an apple noodle.

It may not be as delicious as it may not be his favorite dishes such as three sets of duck, fried eel paste, eight-treasure tofu, braised silver carp head, crab meat lion head, grilled whole pig head, boiled dried shreds, and squirrel mandarin fish. It's delicious, but he just wants to eat it.

Because I haven’t eaten much.

Zheng Da is much harder to fool than Huang Shengli.

Huang Shengli is such a good friend. He is dedicated to his job. As long as he has no health problems, he is an excellent chef who sticks to the front line of the kitchen. Opening a small stove is just a matter of hard work.

Zheng Da can't do it. This guy is really unwilling to do anything, especially after his son completes his studies and becomes a teacher. He is so young that he can't be expected to cook something delicious himself.

Zheng Siyuan is much better than his father, but his craftsmanship is not as good as his father's, and he is very stubborn. He only likes to make those kinds of snacks.

Gong Liang admitted that fresh meat mooncakes are indeed delicious, but he can’t bear to eat them every day. Master Jing obviously had so many delicious snacks back then that he could make them for a month or two without repeating the same ones. Why did it get passed down to his disciples, disciples, and grandsons less and less!

Gong Liang looked at the company's latest financial report. The accounts were very impressive and the income was good, but his brows were furrowed and his face was full of sorrow. His fingers tapped on the table irregularly, making disturbing noises.

"Mr. Gong, the clothes have been made. According to the sizes you ordered, a total of 28 styles have been made. They will be shipped today. They are expected to arrive in Shanshi tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

"Do you think the seat at Huangji today is box 666 or box 888?" Gong Liang's assistant reported the work seriously.

Gong Liang waved his hand: "If you don't want to book a private room today, book me a table in the lobby closest to the kitchen."

"It's been three days, it's been three full days, and there has been no progress in the relationship between Master Xiao Qin and I."

"On normal days, at this time, I would already be sitting at Master Xiao Qin's house drinking tea and chatting, deciding what to eat for lunch and dinner."

"It's really a problem that Master Xiao Qin is short of money. The house prices in his Yunzhong community are quite expensive. Just in case, you go over and buy me a suite first."

"Okay, Mr. Gong, do you have any other instructions?"

"Ask Dong Shi what kind of fruits Master Xiao Qin likes to eat, and ask the bone setting shop to prepare them every day. When Master Xiao Qin comes over, he will cut up the fruit plate and serve it. The details must be done well."

"Okay Mr. Gong."

After the assistant left, Gong Liang picked up his phone and clicked on the chat interface with Qin Huai, thought for a moment, and sent the message again.

Gong Liang: Master Qin, I saw in the Moments you posted last night that your sister seems to be studying in an international high school and her grades are not very satisfactory. I know a few famous teachers here who are very good at tutoring classes in physics, chemistry, biology, computer, Japanese, German, Spanish, and French. Do you want me to recommend some to you?

In the kitchen, Qin Huai, who was having breakfast, immediately saw the message from Gong Liangxin.

Qin Huai receives four or five similar messages every day.

Qin Huai felt that Gong Liang might as well transfer the money directly. Anyway, Huang Shengli said that the transfer could be received directly. He really didn't know how to respond to this kind of information.

Because he was really moved.

It's not that he is weak in will, it's that the enemy's sugar-coated bullets are too tempting.

Fortunately, Gong Liang was among the first batch of people to go overseas and make money early. He did not go astray and was doing serious business. Otherwise, Qin Huai is really worried that he will find another iron job that guarantees harvest during droughts and floods, has a stable job, and has a healthy work and rest, and he will stay there until he retires.

Gong Liang is really capable of progress.

Today's breakfast is ordinary glutinous rice, shaomai and wontons.

Sometimes Qin Huai really admires Zheng Siyuan. If he were asked to make the same snacks every day, he would be tired of making them, but Zheng Siyuan never gets tired of making them. He likes to focus on the same snack and keep making it, specialize in it, and only change to another one when he is perfect at it.

Maybe this is the most fundamental difference between quantity and quality.

"Did Mr. Gong send you another message?" Dong Shi came to Qin Huai with wontons, "What do I ask you?"

"Ask Luoluo if he needs a tutor." Qin Huai said.

"Mr. Gong really likes the snacks you made." Dong Shi sighed, "We don't have this kind of treatment, not even senior brothers. The most ordinary disciples like me can get is a big red envelope during the Chinese New Year. Compared with senior brothers, I am stronger and can get gifts during the holidays.”

"Your treatment is almost as good as Master's."

Qin Huai was a little surprised. He thought Gong Liang treated everyone like this. After knowing that Gong Liang was a monster, Qin Huai felt that everything Gong Liang did was understandable. After all, Gong Liang was currently in the most abnormal state of mind in his life.

He is not even a human being, what else can you ask of him?

"Mr. Gong's assistant just asked me what kind of fruits you like to eat. Do you have any particular favorite fruits? You should be able to eat them at the bone setting shop after get off work today." Dong Shi asked directly.

Qin Huai thought for a while: "Peach, mango, and fresh longan."

Dong Shi replied directly to the message.

"Mr. Gong is so kind to me, and I feel a little embarrassed that I never make apple noodles for him." Qin Huai sighed.

For some reason, Qin Huai felt a sense of hospice care for these monsters. The general feeling is: Oh, this is it, just eat whatever you want.

Gong Liang just wanted to eat two noodles, and he didn't break the law.

"If you want to do it, just cook it for Mr. Gong." Dong Shi said, "Master asked you not to talk to Mr. Gong because Master will always be persuaded by Mr. Gong's words, and then cook, and then other people will come to Master, and then Cook again and then get off work later.”

"Although Huang Ji technically gets off work at 8 pm, the chef never gets off work before 9 pm when Master is not in good health."

"I think Master is a little unfounded. Qin Huai, you are not that kind of person. You only open small stoves for people who want to open small stoves."

"I almost drooled when I saw the apple noodles you made that day, but you didn't make one more for me."

Qin Huai:…

You should ask for it directly like Huang Anyao.

Growing up, my mouth watered a lot when I saw the snacks he made. How could he care?

"Definitely next time." Qin Huai said, taking out his mobile phone and sending a message back to Gong Liang.

Qin Huai: Mr. Gong, will you come to Huangji for lunch today? I may not have time to make the snacks for the engagement party you mentioned, but if you really want to eat noodles, I can make a few for lunch today, as long as you don't mind.

Gong Liang:! !
