Chapter 19: Dipping Sauce

The cart, oil pot and grill have been settled, and the remaining scattered items, although cheap, will take a relatively long time to get them, and Qin Feng will almost run outside for the next whole day. In the morning, I went to the supermarket to buy a gas stove with the smallest model, which cost 200 yuan, and when I came back, I ordered a small can of gas by the way, and it was 50 yuan.

In the afternoon, Qin Feng bought bamboo sticks, plastic bags, 20 uniform aluminum plates, and various spices at the material market where the hawkers gathered. After running all day like this, the money in Qin Feng's pocket was less than 400 yuan.

The situation is obviously more critical than Qin Feng imagined, and it is no longer difficult to recover the cost within three days, but it is necessary to achieve a balance on the opening day. For a person who has just started a business, Qin Feng can be said to have chosen the mode of hellish difficulty.

When he returned home in the evening, Qin Jianguo saw that Qin Feng had bought so many new things, and he didn't say anything, just sighed vigorously.

Qin Feng himself also felt that this time it was a bit of a ruin, and he was not in the mood to comfort his father, but started the experiment on his own.

The so-called test is precisely the tasting.

Qin Feng only bought 2 packs of rice cakes very economically.

Vacuum-packed rice cakes have a unit price of 2 yuan, and each package has 5 long rice cakes.

Qin Feng first cut the rice cakes, cut each rice cake into ten small pieces, cut out 100 small pieces in 2 packs, and skewered a total of 20 skewers.

These 20 skewers of rice cakes are both experiments and dinners.

When Qin Feng was frying rice cakes, he calculated such an account for himself.

The cost price of a pack of rice cakes is 2 yuan, plus the meager gas fee, oil cost and seasoning fee and bamboo skewer money spread on it, the cost is still only 2 yuan 5, sold at the price of 5 cents per string of rice cakes, a pack of rice cakes can be sold for 5 yuan, 100% pure profit, really good profit.

Thinking like this, Qin Feng's pressure suddenly decreased, and he felt that the future was bright.

After the 20 skewers of rice cakes were fried, Qin Feng had no way to add the barbecue process for a while, so he could only directly add the seasoning.

The first seasoning was stolen by Qin Feng in Aqing Building, apple cider vinegar with sweet noodle sauce.

Picked up a bunch of rice cakes, walked around in the appropriately proportioned dipping sauce, took it out and tasted it, the just right amount of sweet and spicy taste made Qin Feng nod frequently. However, the cost of this seasoning is slightly higher, Qin Feng doesn't plan to use it for bargains like rice cakes or dried tofu, he has already prepared the signature dish 1.0, this sweet and spicy sauce, which is specially used to serve the signature dish.

Playing with the first seasoning, Qin Feng opened another bottle of jam.

Without any taste adjustments, he directly applied the prize to the rice cake. The taste of the jam was very good, but the sweetness exceeded Qin Feng's imagination, Qin Feng shook his head, and directly put the bottle of jam that he had only eaten one bite into the kitchen cabinet. Then, he opened another bottle of jam.

In fact, at this time, there are more types of spices on the stove than the number of rice cakes, Qin Feng bought a total of 5 brands of jam, tried them one by one, and finally chose the one with the lightest taste.

The jam that Qin Feng bought was specially used to pair with fried bananas.

Yesterday at Aunt Kebab, Qin Feng didn't even have a dipping sauce for the fried bananas she sold, it can be said that she has been haunted by it, think about it, a kebab stall, all the products have dipping sauce, but bananas don't, this kind of thing, what will bananas think...... It doesn't matter at all, what matters, what does the person who eats bananas think?

Anyway, Qin Feng thought so at the time: dry, it's just to throw the banana into the oil pot and go through it, and the taste is nothing more than flour and bananas, in terms of taste, it is better to simply eat the banana directly. In that case, why spend this unjust money?

It's very rare for a skewer aunt's stall to have repeat customers who are willing to eat fried bananas, at least, the students will definitely not run to her stall to eat fried bananas.

And when the product on a stall has no effect on attracting repeat customers, then it is obvious that this kind of product is a make-up and a failure. There are only 13 kinds of products in Auntie's stall, and the failed products account for 13%, this ratio, Qin Fengguang feels unacceptable when he thinks about it. Not to mention that in addition to the failed products, there are many defective products on the aunt's stall.

The reason why the student party is willing to go forward and pay for Auntie's stall is entirely because they have no other better choice, and Auntie's previous opponent is at most Cheng DΓΉ, who is at the same grade as her.

After trying the jam, Qin Feng finally prepared the main dipping sauce of his stall, that is, the general dipping sauce.

Nowadays, the tastes of customers are heavy, and the dipping sauce of the kebab stall is the most important.

Cumin powder with salt and pepper powder is the main ingredient of this dipping sauce, but the cooking method designed by Qin Feng is to fry first and then grill, and the dipping sauce is to use a brush to smear the ingredients while grilling, so the dipping sauce must also be made into a paste form.

Mix cumin powder and salt and pepper powder with a certain proportion of white sugar, Qin Feng poured a little soy sauce and apple cider vinegar plus a very small amount of oil, and poured a small bowl of sticky things into the pot, Qin Feng slowly boiled it over low heat for 3 minutes, and when the sauce began to bubble, Qin Feng turned off the heat, poured it out and let it cool a little, and then directly dipped it in rice cakes and tasted it.

Qin Feng tried repeatedly on the proportion of these ingredients, and ate 20 bunches of rice cakes for 3 hours, and finally stopped eating the rice cakes in a hurry.

Qin Jianguo listened to the crackling sound in the kitchen all night, and when Qin Feng began to clean up, he finally couldn't help but come out and complain: "What's the point of trying to wipe it like this, you learn from others, wouldn't it be good to just sprinkle some chili powder?" ”

Qin Feng explained: "After the things are fried, they actually taste the same, so what the guests want to eat is never the food itself, but the taste of the sauce dipped in the food. If you want to really retain guests, you have to be perfect in this detail. I haven't finished this dipping sauce yet, so I'll have to do it again tomorrow. ”

"I don't know if this business can continue......" Qin Jianguo shook his head and muttered back to the house.

The next day was the weekend, and Qin Jianguo did not go to work.

Under Qin Jianguo's impatient feelings, Qin Feng made persistent efforts, from morning to afternoon, and finally came up with the best taste he thought was before dinner.

The freshly made sauce has a very strong smell.

Qin Feng bought some chicken hearts, and after frying them, he let Qin Jianguo taste them.

Qin Jianguo obviously felt panicked when he smelled the smell, he pretended to be unimpressed and took it, ate a piece, and immediately his eyes lit up involuntarily.

"Xiao Feng, your skills are really good!" Qin Jianguo sighed sincerely, followed by another sentence that made Qin Feng unappetizing, "You shouldn't come out to set up a stall, stay in Aqing Building as an apprentice, and sooner or later you can make a lot of money!"
