Chapter Twenty-Three: Gourmet Ware

"Boss Su, is anyone there?"

There was a sudden shout outside the house, and Su Zifang came to the hall and found that Chai Ya had arrived.

"Here, please be seated. Su Zi put his hand at a table next to the counter, looking a little restrained.

"It's really chic here, but it's very consistent with Boss Su's temperament. Chai Ya didn't sit down immediately, looked at the food without saying a word, and walked to the counter again: "Boss Su, have you made a delicious dish that doesn't grow meat?"

"Well, wait a minute. Su Zifang nodded and turned back to the kitchen, preparing the vegetable shrimp cakes he had just developed.

The same steps plus I did it just now, and my hands are familiar, so Su Zifang made it more handy this time, and he prepared six shrimp cakes in a few minutes.

When putting it on the plate, Su Zifang just took out a white porcelain plate, thought about it, and replaced it with a bamboo square plate with lotus leaves.

The sweet vinaigrette is placed in the middle, and the shrimp cakes are arranged in a circle along the dipping plate, and a few semi-circular white radishes are garnished, which looks much better than on a porcelain plate.

The chopsticks are also made of bamboo, and the tail is carved with a wavy pattern, which is in line with the mood of the food.

Many people think that a chef's standard is to make a dish with both color, flavor, and taste, but Jasibe has always told them that the chef's standard should be to be complete in color, flavor, shape, and taste.

Color, aroma and taste are the traditional requirements, which are reflected in the appearance, aroma and taste of the dish, and it can be said that ensuring the color and aroma can only be regarded as the basis of a dish. Mastering the shape, utensils, meaning, and cultivation can be regarded as truly entering the chef's business.

Shape was first included in the scope of color, but later it became an independent category due to the development of food carving, requiring beautiful shape and decoration of food.

The utensils are relatively simple, that is, the containers of cooking, and there is a tradition of matching food utensils in China since ancient times, and the utensils are quite compatible, which is enough to see the status of utensils in cooking.

It means the artistic conception of the cuisine, just like the tea ceremony, the cuisine should also pay attention to the cultural connotation, the name and the ingredients echo each other, the representative of the cuisine is boiling water cabbage, the extremely complex and minimalist to the environment, and it is still the top of the state banquet.

Nourishment also implies the content of nutrition, food can nourish people is the traditional cognition of China, so a good chef should also pursue the nutritional effect of cooking.

Of course, this knowledge is not enough for outsiders, anyway, ordinary diners are salted fish that can only be eaten in the groove and shout 666. High-end diners are even more critical of these nitpicks than the chefs themselves.

Su Zifang walked out with shrimp cakes, and the first thing he saw was Chai Ya's shocked eyes.

I glanced down and saw that there were no vegetable leaves hanging on my body, and I didn't step on the tomatoes under my feet, so I asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

"So fast!" Chaya blurted out.

"Hmm......" Su Zifang had nothing to say, and for the first time met a diner who was shocked because the food was served too quickly.

You should know that when interning in a restaurant, almost all complaints come from slow serving, even if it is occasionally fast...... Forget it, as if it never happened.

Su Zifang shook his head, threw those miscellaneous thoughts out of his head, and responded to Chai Ya: "You happened to be trying the dishes when you didn't come, and you came just after trying, so it was very fast." Try it, vegetable shrimp cakes. ”

After speaking, seeing that Chai Ya's eyes were already a little strange, she hurriedly added: "It won't be so coincidental every time." ”

"Thank you Boss Su, praise!" Chai Ya laughed happily, revealing two small dimples.

"Won't it be a lot of oil?" the little girl still couldn't help but worry.

"Olive oil comes out with less oil, very little. ”

After getting Su Zifang's affirmative answer, Chai Ya exhaled with relief: "That's good." Then he picked up his phone and took a picture.

"Let's eat first and then retouch, it's going to get cold later. Su Zi reminded with a heartfelt speech.

"Uh-huh. I'm just going to show my friends and starve them to death. After Chai Ya and Su Zifang finished speaking, they raised their mobile phones to record a video: "If you don't come to eat with me, the vegetable and shrimp cakes cooked by Boss Shuai Su himself, the key is that the boss is very handsome!"

Su Zifang was inexplicably urged, and he was not unhappy when he saw the camera turn around, but cooperated with a smile and waved hello.

The restaurant has just opened and is not popular, and it is not easy to meet a diner who is willing to share, so it is natural to show his face more, after all, he is still burdened with millions of debts, and if there is no customer flow, he can probably only sell blood to pay off the debt. It's poignant to think about.

After sending WeChat, Chai Ya picked up a piece of shrimp cake and took a small bite.

"Click!" Although the shrimp cakes have been left for two or three minutes, the crispy texture is still the same.

"Hmm, it's really delicious!" Chai Ya didn't put down her chopsticks, and her mouth was bulging, but she still insisted on praising Su Zifang, like a hamster who tried hard to swallow it.

"Thank you. ”

The food he made was liked, which was the highest praise for Su Zifang.

After eating one, Chai Ya picked up another one, this time it was dipped in sweet vinegar sauce and eaten, it was not so crispy, but the sweet vinegar completely stimulated the sweetness of the shrimp, became more palatable, and even played an appetizing role, which made her appetite greater, looked at the menu, and pondered whether to add another dish.

"Boss Su, why doesn't you have this dish on your menu. The sharp-eyed Chai Ya asked when she saw Su Zifang's menu.

"New dishes, I haven't had time to add them yet, wait a minute. Su Zifang took out his tools, wrote vegetable shrimp cakes on the menu, and added the price at the back - 8 yuan per piece.

"Boss Su...... You didn't just say that this is sold by the piece!" Chai Ya looked at the four shrimp cakes on the plate and wanted to cry without tears.

Su Zifang was also a little dazed when he heard Chai Ya's words, he seemed to have subconsciously made six pieces according to his own appetite, he didn't think that Chai Ya was a girl who was losing weight.

However, it was really inappropriate to start cooking without telling diners the price, so Su Zifang told Chai Ya very seriously: "Try the dishes, it's free." ”

After all, four shrimp cakes are not cheap, because it is not good for his own negligence to make diners pay, which he understands very well.

"Well, that's good. Seeing that she didn't have to pay for four extra shrimp cakes, Chai Ya was even happier.

When she first served the food, she thought that the shrimp cakes were six pieces, and she thought about taking them away after eating them.

As a result, halfway through eating, I was attracted by Su Zifang's craftsmanship and wanted to add another dish.

But after looking at the price, she felt that it was too expensive to eat more than 60 yuan for a meal.

Who knew that Su Zifang was directly exempt from the order in the name of tasting dishes.

In this case......

"Boss Su, then I want another bowl of Yangchun noodles and an omelette!" Chai Ya smiled and raised her mobile phone: "WeChat payment!"

"I haven't opened WeChat Pay yet, you can transfer me. Su Zifang handed over the QR code on his mobile phone.

"Alright. Chai Ya returned the phone.

Su Zifang saw that there was a small red dot on WeChat, and clicked in and found that it was a friend application: "Little match applies to add you as a friend." ”

Looking up, he found that Chai Ya was looking at him.

"Is that you?"

"Hmm. Chai Ya nodded, "I'll give you a red envelope." ”

"Okay. Su Zifang nodded, he didn't think there was any problem, anyway, they all collect money, and red envelopes are the same as transfers.

No problem!
