Chapter 395: Apprenticeship
Bai Xiaobai was sweating all over his head, but he really admired Lan Weihao's ability.
In addition to the hot sales, the food reputation of Bai Xiaobai Cuisine has also exploded.
In fact, relying on the celebrity effect alone is just a flash in the pan, after all, it will not last long, and in the end, it is the hard power of food that is still seen.
Deliciousness is the last word.
The clear soup noodles and clear soup noodles of Bai Xiaobai cuisine are said to be good by customers who have eaten them.
0 negative, 0 negative.
The word-of-mouth has completely sparked a food boom in the food festival.
It has been busy from noon in the sunset.
At the beginning of the lanterns, the street lights have been lit up in XX Square one after another, and Bai Xiaobai is ready to close the stall, but there are still customers who come to patronize one after another.
In order not to disappoint customers, Bai Xiaobai extended the business hours for the first time.
Originally, he was going to close at six o'clock, but he was stunned until half past seven before finally closing down.
Seeing off the last customer, Bai Xiaobai was packing up the equipment of the booth with Gao Chao and Lan Weihao.
At this time, Jiang Wei held a bowl of hot fish balls, came to the booth and said, "Boss Bai, I changed it according to your suggestion, I think the taste of the soup is indeed much better, how about you help me taste it?"
Jiang Wei had already recooked the fish ball soup in the afternoon according to Bai Xiaobai's suggestion, and he couldn't wait to come over and ask Bai Xiaobai for advice again.
Not enough for Bai Xiaobai to be very busy in the afternoon, Jiang Wei never dared to disturb.
It wasn't until Bai Xiaobai was out of business now and was packing up his things that Jiang Wei mustered up the courage to come and ask for advice again.
Although Jiang Wei's cooking skills are average, he is indeed a good young man who is not ashamed to ask.
Bai Xiaobai was naturally willing to help, he wiped his hands with a clean towel, and then took the paper bowl with both hands.
After the fish ball soup is not fish soup, the aroma is really purer.
Bai Xiaobai can smell the special aroma of vegetables and mushrooms, which is particularly refreshing.
"Nice scent. Bai Xiaobai encouraged Jiang Wei, then picked up a small soup spoon, scooped up the clear soup, and took a sip.
Bai Xiaobai's tongue was very smart, and he had already guessed the ingredients used to cook the soup in one mouthful.
There are enoki mushrooms, chicken leg mushrooms, baby cabbage.
Although the ingredients used in the clear soup are very ordinary, Jiang Wei has obviously experimented countless times with the ratio and boiling time of the three ingredients.
It is also a simple delicacy that pays attention to the details of the cuisine.
Don't think that vegetable mushroom soup is so simple that everyone can cook it.
It's not easy to make a good consommé like this in a pot.
The matching ratio of the dosage of enoki mushrooms, chicken leg mushrooms, and baby cabbage, as well as the boiling process, will surface fine foam from the mountain delicacies, which are all earthy smells.
It has to be wiped off little by little, which is a great test of patience.
Only by paying attention to these two details can you make a good vegetable and mushroom soup.
Jiang Wei's clear soup is obviously qualified.
Bai Xiaobai is very refreshing and fragrant to drink, and the amount of various ingredients is just right.
After taking another bite of fish balls, the taste is delicate, fragrant and tender, the fishy smell is much less, and the umami is fuller.
It is estimated that Jiang Wei has also put a lot of effort into improving the taste of fish balls.
At least compared to the morning, Bai Xiaobai felt that he had made great progress.
"Boss Jiang, the fish balls you make have improved, I think it's very good. Bai Xiaobai ate the fish balls one bite at a time, just for dinner, Gao Chao and Lan Weihao on the edge of greed swallowed saliva vigorously.
"Boss Bai, thanks to the advice. "Jiang Wei graduated from junior high school, and his cultural level is not high, but his speech is also a little crepe.
Seriously, he is really grateful to Bai Xiaobai.
After listening to Bai Xiaobai's words in the morning, Jiang Wei had a feeling that 'listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years'.
Sometimes, there is no gain just by blindly groping on your own, and what you do is useless, but through a good teacher, the gain is huge.
The same is true for cooking.
Although Bai Xiaobai was only a small suggestion in the morning, this suggestion was very beneficial to Jiang Wei.
He has a further understanding of gourmet cuisine.
At this moment, Jiang Wei had a bold idea.
"Boss Bai—" Jiang Wei paused for a moment, and then continued, "Do you accept apprentices?"
Bai Xiaobai was eating fish balls, and he hadn't swallowed them completely, and after hearing this, he almost stuck in his throat.
He probably knew what Jiang Wei meant.
After a little relief, Bai Xiaobai pretended not to know, "Boss Jiang, why did you suddenly ask me if I accept apprentices?"
Jiang Wei really expressed his intentions and said, "Boss Bai, I really appreciate your cooking skills, and I want to learn some cooking skills with you in a down-to-earth manner." Can you accept me as an apprentice, even if you give you a start, I will do anything, no, I will also work hard to learn, of course, I can solve it by myself, and you don't have to pay me. ”
Jiang Wei suddenly apprenticed, making Bai Xiaobai's whole person blind.
To be honest, it was really sudden.
and Boss Jiang have only known each other for a day or two, and in such a short period of time, the other party suddenly learns from a teacher, and no one will be shocked.
Bai Xiaobai was completely unprepared, a little embarrassed, and didn't know what to say.
After stabilizing his little heart, Bai Xiaobai organized the language in his mind, and then said with a smile, "Boss Jiang, to be honest, in fact, I am not a professional chef. I know how to cook, but I don't know how to teach others how to cook. I don't really have much experience with that. Or you have a better option, you can go to a professional cooking school system like X Oriental to train your cooking skills. ”
Bai Xiaobai can't hide his words in his heart, and he doesn't like to beat around the bush, this sentence is completely honest.
It's not that I'm afraid of the law that 'the disciples of the church starve to death of the master'.
One of the reasons is that cooking yourself and teaching others to cook are two different things.
It's like some students learn very well, but teaching others to solve problems may not be very clear in expression.
Bai Xiaobai has never taught others to cook, and he has no experience in this area.
What's more, with the food system in his body, he has to fight for the food chef, and it is impossible to be idle in the future, and he has a lot to learn.
The comprehensive expression is that being someone else's master at present, whether it is qualifications or age, is actually far from enough.
This is also the main reason for Bai Xiaobai's refusal.
In fact, Jiang Wei also has his own considerations.
Cooking and other types of crafts have one thing in common, that is, it is very important to follow the right master, so that you can not only learn the real skills, but also learn quickly.
Although he had only known Bai Xiaobai for two days, he had already seen that the young man in front of him was very good at cooking.
This kind of person's future culinary attainments must be extraordinary, and it is definitely beneficial to learn cooking skills with him, at least a hundred times better than those snack training classes that do not charge for anything.
Therefore, Jiang Wei thought carefully for a whole day, and finally made up his mind to worship Bai Xiaobai as a teacher.
Although the rejection was also expected, but at this moment, when he was really rejected by Bai Xiaobai, Jiang Wei was still sour in his heart, and it was very unpleasant.
"Boss Bai, if I don't study in vain, can I pay tuition for apprenticeship?" Jiang Wei planned to give it a go and try to fight for it.
"It's not a question of money or not. When Bai Xiaobai said this, he didn't know how to go on for a while.
He knew that Jiang Wei must have mustered up great courage to apprentice, which was very sincere.
He was reluctant to directly hit Jiang Wei's heart to learn to cook.
After thinking about it, Bai Xiaobai said, "That's it, from now on, we are also friends, if you have any questions about cooking, or if you don't understand anything about cooking, you can come and ask me at any time, I will definitely know everything." But apprentice, this- forget it. I'm about the same age as you, and I always feel weird when I am a master. ”
