Chapter 16 This Chef Is Amazing!
tter hurry and figure out how to get out of here!"Seeing He Yuzhu motionless, he instead stretched out a hand towards her. Lou Xiaoxiao was a little stunned: "What are you doing""Lend me ten dollars....The first canteen,
Back kitchen.
He Yuzhu clapped his hands and put a pile of processed ingredients aside.
Looking at his calm and composed appearance, Liu Ran couldn't help but smile and say, "You're really so calm and collected. Aren't you afraid that after the meal, this Liu will give you a hard time"
He Yuzhu laughed and said, "We chefs rely on our skills. If you don't have the skill, it won't matter where you go. In other words, as long as I finish my work well, no one can find fault with me! Liu might slander me of flirting with you, but he can't hide my cooking skills!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Ran's face flushed red. After a long while, she pouted and said, "You're really something!"
"As she spoke, her brows furrowed. “Hey! That’s not right! I remember you weren't like this before! According to your past style, Xu Damao would have already been beaten against the wall by you!"
He Yuzhu twitched his lips: "Oh! We're all neighbors who grew up together in the same courtyard. Sometimes I think, he and I are almost like people from the same path. It's better to let others go. Why keep fighting all the time It's so tiring."
Liu Lan gave a thumbs-up: “I really didn't expect you to have this level of understanding!”
In a moment, Yang Chang's secretary, Xiao Wang, hurried over and said that the guests had arrived and the kitchen could start preparing.
He Yuzhu replied, "Okay, about half an hour the dishes will be ready. Secretary Wang, please bring the people to our private room in the canteen on time. I'll make sure everything goes smoothly here."
"Wang Shishu nodded. "Then I'll trouble Master He to take care of this. These are all distinguished guests who have traveled a long way!"
He Yuzhu smiled and said, "You can rest assured, I'm the one who does this kind of work!"
Because Cantonese restaurants are everywhere in later generations, and he himself has traveled to both Guangdong provinces several times, He Yuzhu believes that his understanding of Cantonese cuisine may even be deeper than the original him.
Moreover, these ingredients had already been processed by the system earlier. Now, he was brimming with confidence, his hands moving deftly as he began to cook in an orderly fashion.
When the dish was ready, all the Hokkien people nearby stared in disbelief: "Master Chef, why didn't you add garlic and chili when you stir-fried this dish You always said that garlic and chili are essential when stir-frying!"
"Don't you understand She's from Guangdong, where they don't eat spicy food. If you still cook it Sichuan-style today, your master will really be sweeping the toilets tomorrow!"
After giving his apprentice instructions, He Yuzhu quickly picked up the enamel cup beside him and took a large gulp of chrysanthemum tea.
It's really too hot to cook in this weather. Luckily, he won't have to worry about cooking this big pot of food anymore, or else he would suffer through the summer!
Well, it's not a good idea to just stir up trouble. I still need to find ways to get that old Liu Limin in trouble and hopefully get rid of him as the head chef soon!
"Ma Hua let out an 'Ah' and said, "There are so many things to consider"
He Yuzhu pointed and said: "There's so much to learn! Don't listen to people say that cooking must follow certain rules. That's all nonsense! Food is ultimately made for people to eat. If others like a particular taste, we should try our best to improve it. That's what real skill is!"
Of course, that's different if you're running a restaurant. Everything is listed on the menu! For example, if I open a Sichuan restaurant and a customer complains about too much chili, I wouldn't hesitate to swear at them!
A circle of people around the edge listened to his words and suddenly realized they understood. Good heavens, this chef really wasn't simple at all. No wonder the old saying goes "judge a person by their actions."
He Yuzhu pursed his lips, spat out the chrysanthemum leaves in his mouth and continued: "Cantonese cuisine pays the most attention to the freshness of ingredients. The taste and seasonings are also used to ensure that the original flavor and nutrition of the dish are preserved, so relatively speaking, less stimulating ingredients like garlic and chili peppers are used."
"Alright, let's talk about this in detail another day. Fatty, you and Ma Hua, get the preparations done quickly. The workers at the workshop will be coming in for lunch soon. When there's a small kitchen set up, Liu Lan will be in charge of bringing food over there. You two, help out more."
Liu Arlan let out an "Ai" sound, this matter was done so authentically! Who said Shazhu is stupid Look at how clearly he explains things, one by one, even more patiently than those old scholars!
"Okay! Master!"
Today is his first day as head chef, and he's really worried about being criticized by the workers. It would be embarrassing for him to lose face, but if he drags down the master chef and gets caught by that bastard Liu, that would be a real disaster!
.......
In the private room of the cafeteria, Yang the factory director, Li the deputy director, and Sun the branch secretary were all smiling as they welcomed four guests into the room.
Looking at the table full of dishes, Factory Director Yang nodded with satisfaction: "The efficiency of this cafeteria is very high! So many delicious dishes are almost ready in such a short time"
Wang's secretary smiled and explained: "Master He from the back kitchen asked me to bring you here on time so that the leaders could have a pleasant meal!"
Standing behind him, Director Liu Limin of the cafeteria wore a somewhat displeased expression. He tugged at the corner of his mouth and added, "With distinguished guests having traveled from afar, they wouldn't dare to be careless."
But if the dish doesn't meet the guest's liking, then He Yuzhu has failed!
A guest from Guangdong, looking at the table full of dishes and smelling the fragrance of the food in the private room, suddenly exclaimed: "Deputy Factory Director Li, you just told me that your cafeteria cooks are not familiar with the dishes from our place, but I feel that his skills are even more authentic than those chefs in the state-owned restaurants back home."
The rest chimed in, “That’s right! Deputy Factory Manager Li, you're too modest! Just look at the color of this blanched bok choy, I don't even need to taste it to know it's delicious. And this poached chicken, with its bright orange glistening fat and even bloodshot bones, it's clearly a Guangzhou specialty!”
Li Xinmin looked completely dumbfounded. Good heavens, just moments ago he was eyeing that streak of chicken blood and thinking about using it as a joke at dinner time. So He Yuzhu did this whole thing to please the guests
Before he could even speak, Liu Ran from over there had already come in carrying a clay pot with two white cloths clutched in her hand: "This is the last dish, yellow bean pork knuckle soup. All the dishes are ready!"
As Liu Ran spoke, she took the lid off the clay pot that she had already prepared.
Suddenly, the room was filled with a fragrant aroma of soup.
Looking at the thick pig's trotter soup with a few bright goji berries floating on top, the leading guest couldn't help but say, "Director Yang, please call the chef who made this dish over. It's really thoughtful! After traveling so many times for business, this is the first time I've seen a chef who cares about us so much!" dry goods hanging on the handlebars, you haven’t seen them before. Just now, Uncle Three and his family were staring with their eyes wide open! Your father really knows how to get things done. I app...
