Chapter 14 Probation

"No play."

The simple two words made Wang Ming's heart shake at the same time, the chefs on the side who originally had the attitude of watching the excitement all cast mocking glances at Wang Ming here in an instant, and when they shook their heads, they each returned to their posts, and in a low conversation, they sneered at Wang Ming here.

"This one is even worse, he was shot to death without even trying, you look at the way he just looked, I laughed to death."

"These days, there are more and more small chefs who don't know the height of the sky, doers like you and me, I want to get up step by step, and I don't know what the current chefs think, I really think that I can do pier work by touching the knife, not to mention, it is still a high-grade hotel like Yufulou."

"Okay, let's get to work, this kind of little chef who can't even count as two knives, what is he doing?"

The whispering voice was not concealed, and when it came, Wang Ming was expressionless, looked up at Master Li, who had a little indifference in his eyes, and when he took a deep breath, he spoke.

"Master Li, look, I'm here, or let me try, right?"

Wang Ming's voice fell, and the people around him who were still talking in a low voice were stunned for a moment, and then, the expressions on their faces became even more exciting.

"Hehe, you see that this little chef is quite axial, he said that he didn't have a show, and insisted on trying it, if he was embarrassed for a while, the fun would be even greater."

"Shhhh Don't talk, watch the excitement with peace of mind, I'm so busy these days, someone comes in early in the morning to show you for fun, which can be regarded as a kind of enjoyment. ”

"Poof... You have a really poisonous mouth, but... I love it, haha. ”

Master Li was also stunned by Wang Ming's words, and then a smile appeared on his face, for Wang Ming's character, he likes it quite a lot, many industries, especially the chef's industry, in addition to hard-working and hard-working, there is also one thing that is quite important, that is, perseverance.

Seeing Master Li's smile, the faces of the people next to him were even more abusive, and even Manager Zhao, who had been silently watching from the back, shook his head at this time, and stood beside Wang Ming when he stepped forward, and when he looked at Wang Ming with beautiful eyes, there was also a look of appreciation.

"That's it, since you're so insistent, I can help you once, but if you really can't get this position, you go to the front desk to work as a waiter, how about it?"

Manager Zhao's voice fell, and he gave Master Li a grateful look on the side, and seeing this, Master Li also nodded slowly.

Wang Ming pondered for a moment, and when he looked up, he met Manager Zhao's gaze, with sincere gratitude in his eyes, in fact, if he didn't want to be familiar with the kitchen environment, and in order to let himself master the skill of chef to the best of his ability, Manager Zhao's price code, Wang Ming was not unmoved, thinking that no matter whether he could apply for this position or not, he would face a job with good treatment, Wang Ming's inner pressure suddenly decreased a lot.

"Thank you, Manager Zhao."

Thinking of this, Wang Ming nodded, and then looked at Master Li who had a strange look on his eyes.

"Okay, since Manager Zhao said so, let's try it, Xiao Zheng, take him to change his work clothes, let him try it at the position of the tail pier first, and test his basic knife skills by the way."

Xiao Zheng on the side nodded, a smile appeared on his face, and then he said to Wang Ming.

"Let's go, I'll take you to change your uniforms first."

When the words fell, Xiao Zheng took the lead in walking outside the kitchen, the changing room in the kitchen was in the hut at the end of the sink, Wang Ming followed Xiao Zheng, entered the changing room and put on brand new work clothes, the moment the clothes were put on, Xiao Zheng was stunned, but his eyes looked at Wang Ming but changed slightly.

"I didn't expect you to look like a good chef after wearing this white overalls."

Xiao Zheng spoke, and Wang Ming walked out of the changing room one after another, and finally stopped in front of Master Li.

"Well... Alright, let's get to work. ”

Master Li was also surprised by Wang Ming in front of him, and then, he waved his hand lightly and said to the two of them, while Xiao Zheng on the side nodded, and the two stopped next to the board.

"We have a total of six pier workers here, except for the first two dishes, the middle two are responsible for quickly replenishing the required materials after they are exhausted, and carrying out some pickling and assembling of some handmade dishes, while the two of us are responsible for most of the raw materials on the pier."

"You're new today, let's start with vegetables, you see that there are vegetables in the crisper box that have been processed, you go and get familiar with it, just cut it according to that shape, if you still don't understand, just ask me."

Xiao Zheng smiled and spoke, after finishing speaking, his right hand skillfully operated the knife, without looking, the kitchen knife held in his right hand with a cheerful rhythm, sounded, the cucumber on the pier had been preliminarily processed, and he cut it into slices of diamond shape.

And in the next time, Xiao Zheng also gave Wang Ming a rough introduction to the positions and titles of the personnel in the kitchen, so that Wang Ming could easily identify them, and when Xiao Zheng finished speaking, Wang Ming also cast a grateful look at him here, and then turned around,

Standing slowly in front of the pier, his legs were naturally separated, looking at the rows of various knives stacked on the knife holder, his eyes suddenly lit up when his eyes swept over, and then, he reached out and took down the kitchen knife he liked.

"No. 2 mulberry knife made of stainless steel."

Looking at the knife in his hand that is still a little mottled, Wang Ming sighed lightly in his heart, in 2000, most hotels still use the No. 1 knife, this kind of kitchen knife body is thicker and heavier, and it is more flexible to use, both can be cut and chopped, because the back of the knife is slightly wider, some meat products in the production of semi-finished products, usually need to be pounded and chopped and then pickled, so as to taste, and secondly, it can also quickly destroy the tendons and internal fibers in the meat, so as to make the meat more smooth and tender.

Because of this, the fashionable and not popular No. 2 mulberry knife fell into the bottom, the No. 2 mulberry knife blade is thinner, so it is also much sharper, plus his size is slightly smaller, it is dexterous and light to use, suitable for direct decomposition of processed meat and vegetables.

But at that time, the chefs were accustomed to the No. 1 mulberry knife, and the light and agile No. 2 mulberry knife was not well controlled, and a little carelessness would hurt themselves, and the No. 1 mulberry knife was widely used, and there was a knife in hand.

Holding the No. 2 mulberry knife in his hand, Wang Ming weighed the weight, and did not rush to start work, and when he turned around, he went to the water platform, and the whetstone and kitchen knife made a sneering sound.

When Wang Ming chose the No. 2 mulberry knife before, many people still secretly observed, and after seeing the knife he chose, the expression on his face was full of sarcasm, a young man who had just entered the kitchen, actually chose the No. 2 mulberry knife that they refused to use lightly, which made them feel ridiculous at the same time, and they also withdrew their gaze one after another.

And Master Li, who had never paid attention to Wang Ming's dynamics, was only slightly stunned when he saw the knife selected by Wang Ming, and then continued to be busy with the work in his hand and did not pay much attention to it.

Most of the preparations for the hotel were completed before half past ten, generally at this time period, there were guests who came to dine one after another, therefore, at this moment, most of the chefs who were ready to work also began to get together in twos and threes and whispered about something, the noise in the kitchen at this time was not loud, and therefore, Wang Ming's sneering knife sharpening sound by the water platform attracted the attention of many people, they all wanted to see, this was denied by Master Li, if it wasn't for Manager Zhao's intercession, there was no chance to try work. How capable it is.

Wang Ming raised his head and looked at the No. 2 mulberry knife in his hand that had been sharpened, the palm was flipped, the blade was facing upward, Wang Ming squinted, and the blade fell in his eyes at this time, like a fine and straight silk thread, exuding a little sharpness.

Wang Ming nodded with satisfaction, the No. 2 mulberry knife in his hand was slowly put away, and he didn't pay much attention to the surrounding playful eyes, at this time he walked to his own pier, and the No. 2 mulberry knife in his hand was softly chopped a few times on the empty pier, and then he gently put it on the pier, and his eyes swept the raw materials in the crisper box and the raw materials of various shapes that were processed.

Hurriedly glanced at the raw materials in the crisper box, Wang Ming's heart slowly calmed down, although there are many kinds of processed raw materials, but the shape and style are not as rigorous as he imagined, although he can't do this step now, but give him some time, Wang Ming is confident that he can do better than these people.

Thinking of this, Wang Ming retracted his gaze, turned around and came to the pier, and Xiao Zheng on the side came up.

"Be careful when you work, don't hurt yourself."

Xiao Zheng's gaze swept from the No. 2 mulberry knife in front of Wang Mingdun, and said softly to Wang Ming, from the moment Wang Ming put on the uniform, Xiao Zheng's opinion of him has changed a lot, and in this regard, even Xiao Zheng himself is a little surprised, for Master Li's vision, Xiao Zheng is very confident, and has never questioned it, but this time, for some reason, he always feels that Wang Ming here does not seem to be so simple as it seems.

In the face of Xiao Zheng's kind reminder, Wang Ming was also stunned, and when he immediately looked at Xiao Zheng's gaze, from Xiao Zheng's face, he saw that sincerity, although there seemed to be some contradictions.

Wang Ming's heart warmed, and he immediately nodded, with a smile on his face.

"Thanks, I'll be careful."

Wang Ming's voice fell, he had some good feelings for Xiao Zheng, and at this time he began to place orders one after another, and the kitchen began to run slowly, and at this time, behind Xiao Zheng, a young man in white overalls walked over, looking at Wang Ming with a hint of doubt.

The chef who came over stood still in front of Wang Ming, looked at him indifferently, and said softly, although the tone seemed to be peaceful, but the ridicule and sarcasm in it were still caught by Wang Ming.

"Well, today's miscellaneous master is resting, if you can, can you do a favor and cut out some of the colorful silk used for steaming fish?"
