Chapter 410: Canned Vegetables

Behind Su's Kitchen School is another factory that was abandoned last year.

In the 80s and 90s, many small factories sprung up in Xinhai City, because of the policy bias and the hunger and thirst of the market at that time, the profitability of these factories was good at first, but since the several financial crises ten years ago, and the pickiness and saturation of the market in recent years, these factories have quietly closed down one by one.

These abandoned factories stand on the edge of the government's planned new district, eight feet away from the new district government, the only advantage may be that they are close to the sea, but what is the use, every wharf and road here are built in a mess, who will come.

However, with the establishment of Su's Kitchen School, immediately afterwards, it was the Gluttony Group that moved over, and then, Su's four stores were also built by the sea, and then, another factory behind Su's Kitchen School was also bought by Su's. This place is finally lively.

Many businessmen followed the trend to buy houses and land here, and there was a preliminary prosperity for a while.

The new factory area behind Su's Kitchen School is the newly built Su's food processing factory in Su's Restaurant.

In addition to the Su's dim sum that has already been made, we will start thinking about processed canned food and sealed packaged foods in various flavors after the year.

The production of these cooked foods is definitely not something that can be made with a pat on the head, and the canned food is okay, which is relatively simple, but the sealed packaged food must be carefully selected.

The first is the expiration date, then the taste, and thirdly, the pricing.

Especially the pricing.

The fame of Su's Restaurant is now said to be big in China, but it is not small.

Sometimes if a product wants to sell well, it has to rely on fame, especially when the price is not low.

I couldn't make dim sum before, but if all the machines are started together, the machine doesn't run for a while, and the money is gone, and the profit must be guaranteed.

Su's only makes high-quality products, but do people recognize the accounts of these high-quality foods?

According to Su Ruotong's survey, many people's buying habits in China tend to be cheap. Like those imported foods that are slightly more expensive, in the supermarket, there are usually a lot of them that will be placed after the expiration date, and no one cares, but those products with ordinary materials and relatively low prices are selling very hot.

Judging from the dim sum launched by the Su family in the previous New Year's Festival, the best-selling is not the Sixi dim sum priced at 48 yuan, but the 16-color gift box with the cheapest 188 yuan in the gift box. In other words, there are many people who feel that they are not willing to consume tens of yuan per piece of dim sum, but if it is used as a gift, it is acceptable.

Obviously, a fried shredded potato in a restaurant outside costs ten yuan or eight yuan, but many people's consumption concept is still stuck in the old idea that a piece of dim sum cannot exceed three yuan.

This made Su Ruotong also a little distressed.

Finally, she gave a firm look: Let's do what people think is worthwhile.

"Miss Su, what Charlie and I mean is that you don't want to make too much fruit in canned food, what do you see?" Zhao Fakai said.

At the seminar held in the new factory this time, almost all the qualified masters of Su's Restaurant arrived, and there were ten ** people in total.

"Well, what kind of canned food are you going to make?" Su Ruotong nodded to Zhao Fakai.

"In fact, canned food is convenience food, in our China, the popularity of canned food is not so high, a considerable part of the canned food, but also think that it refers to canned fruit, and some are more extreme, thinking that canned fruit - or all canned food, are made of raw materials that are about to spoil or have gone bad. These misunderstandings of people seem to be very detrimental to the development of the canned food industry, but in fact, it is an opening, if our canned food tastes good, the quality is good, and it is convenient to eat, it can definitely become a better meal replacement than instant noodles. ”

Zhao Fakai said a long paragraph.

"That's a good idea. Su Ruotong said: "You can enter the next topic." But before the next meeting, you'll have to make more than 10 canned dishes, tell me a list of consumables and ingredients, and how long you can expect it to last. ”

Before he and Charlie made the proposal, it was approved at once, and Zhao Fakai and Charlie were very excited. As for making more than ten canned dishes, it's not easy, for them, it's easy.

Bao Ruwen didn't expect that it was his eldest apprentice who was in the limelight, and he was very unhappy, and immediately said: "My old Bao also has a proposal." I propose that we make a series of vacuum-packed pickled vegetables. Braised pig's trotters, braised chicken wings, braised eggs, the price is not expensive, it is easy to make, and the market can be guaranteed, after all, everyone eats these. ”

"What Master Bao said is right, before the next meeting, Master Bao, you can make more than ten vacuum-packed braised vegetables and bring them, preferably each with three different flavors. Su Ruotong said.

Bao Ruwen was stunned: "Why do I want three different flavors." Isn't that thirty?"

Su Ruotong waved his hand: "Next!"

If an ordinary chef gets this request, he won't be embarrassed, because he just prepares three pots of different marinades, and throws the things inside and is finished. But he is different, when he marinates different things, he has to mix the marinade separately, plus each thing needs three flavors, that is, thirty pots of marinade. The less marinade is made, the more tasteless it is. Thinking of the things he was going to do day and night next, Bao Ruwen's head was big.

He turned his head and looked at Zhao Fakai, hey, let this grandson be in the limelight, and he will be arrested to help after a while.

This meeting did not last very long, and it was dispersed after only half an hour, which was very neat and neat in the Su family's style.

For each suggestion that is desirable, Su Ruotong asked them to make the finished product first, and then discuss it collectively at the next meeting.

When the meeting was dismissed, most of the people left, except for Alexander.

At the meeting just now, the two suggestions he made were both rejected, which made Alexander feel very depressed.

Why can't Huaxia make sealed packaged fried chicken and French fries packages, why can't Huaxia make sealed packaged pizza and licorice sugar packages, obviously what he saw was that many young people in Huaxia liked to eat these very much, and he knew the production line that Su Shi bought, and he could easily make these things.

"Sue, I don't think you're discriminating against me. Alexander's little face was serious.

"Nope. Su Ruotong said: "Why do you think so." ”

"I guess you should be distrusting of me. Since the Chinese people can accept the braised chicken in the package, I think my improved fried chicken and pizza are also acceptable to them. ”

Su Ruotong knew what Alexander was talking about, after Alexander came to Su's Restaurant, he was trained hard, and slowly, he had a certain understanding of the real Chinese flavor, and the Western food he made was unexpectedly adapted to the appetite of Chinese people, so in Su's Restaurant, the food he cooked also had a group of fans.

It's just that he's still too young to know how to make these foods into assembly line food.

There are essential differences between Chinese food and Western food, and these differences determine that if you want to make them perfectly blended together, you can either only make them into four dissimilarities, or you can only cook them carefully, and integrate the essence of them with the kind of culinary control of the master. The latter is something that the assembly line can never do.

To put it bluntly, the assembly line is a machine, how can a machine be compared with a human?

Alexander, a child, grew up in the West, was too influenced by industry, and has completely ignored what industry can't do, in his opinion, industry can be omnipotent, especially the production line used by Su's is also advanced technology abroad.

"Since you insist, you can bring your work with you at the next meeting for everyone to see. Su Ruotong said succinctly: "However, you have to come to the factory and do it by machine, not by hand." ”

Alexander was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Su Ruotong to agree to his request, a sunny smile appeared on the young man's face, cheered, and left the room.

Half a month later, the second meeting was held.

There were quite a lot of participants in this meeting, nearly 300 people in total, in addition to the chef who made the food, there were almost all the staff of Su's Restaurant who were not on duty today, as well as some employees of the Gluttonous Group who were interested in watching the excitement.

Today they had the opportunity to sample the dishes, rate the dishes, and write their own reviews.

In order to make the ratings and evaluations not individualistic, the chef's name is not written on the sealed cans and dishes that are distributed.

Sealed food is generally not too beautiful in appearance, but canned food is an exception. Almost everyone's eyes were fixed on the stack of tall cans next to them.

The canned food used for tasting dishes is almost always in glass bottles, and there is basically no fruit in it, and it is all vegetables and meat. There is even a mixture of vegetables and meat, which is super tempting at first glance.

On the stage, it was Su Changqing who presided over the meeting with a loudspeaker, and Su Changqing said with a smile: "Everyone, pay attention, there is microwave rice today, which is also a fast food product." Just microwave it. We've already heated it up for everyone here, and we'll serve it right away, and today's canned food is served with rice. ”

With his words, the staff has begun to distribute rice, one by one hot rice was served, and at the same time, canned food was also sent down, for fear that everyone would eat too much and affect the follow-up score, basically everyone also gave a sealed braised vegetable at the same time.

The lid of the can is unscrewed, and although it is cold, the juice inside is completely suitable for bibimbap!

People here are already preparing to eat, but there is a commotion on the other side: "Why don't we distribute rice and canned food here? We want rice and canned food too!"
