Chapter 132: Tangerine Syrup
"What's a canned orange?" Ye Zi asked if he didn't understand, and it was the first time he had heard this strange word.
Jiang Tian couldn't explain it to her.
Hurriedly reminded him to help himself and peel those oranges for later use.
Actually making canned oranges is very simple, add water first.
After boiling, turn to low heat, then add sugar to boil and melt, wait for a cup of tea, then add honey, and wait for it to cool thoroughly to make canned oranges.
"Let's try it and see if you like it?" After Jiang Tian was ready, he brought it to the leaf like a treasure.
Ye Zi didn't mean to take the chopsticks, and asked nervously, "Jiang Tian, can I really eat this first bite?" ”
"Yes! Don't ink, try to see if you have enough honey, and if you don't have enough, you can add more. Jiang Tian urged Ye Zi to try it quickly, and then she picked up the chopsticks, took half of the orange and put it in her mouth.
"Delicious. Sweet and silky. Jiang Tian knew that no girl could resist this homemade simple version of canned oranges.
She hurried to try a piece herself.
The taste is really not ordinarily good.
It's just delicious.
Seeing that there was still a lot left in the pot, he generously asked the leaves to take them down and distribute them to the people in the house.
Naturally, Donglu Ziheng, the prince, also got a small bowl.
Seeing him staring at the orange petals in the white porcelain bowl in front of him in a daze, Mama Wang hurriedly prompted: "Lord Wang, these are all made by Jiang Tian himself." ”
Dong Lu Ziheng didn't speak, and he didn't show any extra expression on his face, he just picked up the soup spoon and scooped up an orange petal and sent it to his mouth.
The taste of honey and sugar enters the sour orange petals well, and it tastes sweet and refreshing, and it is unexpectedly delicious.
Soon, Jiang Tian received feedback from Mama Wang, saying that Donglu Ziheng also felt that this canned orange was very moist.
Even if the clapper decides to make a modified version of the orange syrup to sell in the store, you have to ask the rest of the store before selling it.
So the next morning, she went to the store and asked someone to buy all the oranges she could buy in the market
"How? Everyone's opinion, if this orange syrup is our new syrup, do you think anyone will be willing to buy it? ”
Xiaodong: "Owner, although oranges are cheap, sugar and honey are very expensive. This orange syrup is very tasty, but the cost is a bit high. I calculated the cost, if we don't sell it for 7 yuan a bowl, I guess we will have to lose money. ”
After she finished speaking, the shopkeeper next to her also nodded.
"Owner, I agree with Xiaodong's statement, this orange syrup tastes good, but I don't think it will sell much. After all, 7 dollars can buy 3 taels of meat. ”
"I also think that the orange syrup tastes good, but if the price is too low, we can't make money, and if the price is too high, we can't sell it."
……
Jiang Tian listened to everyone's discussion and expressed his opinions, and felt very relieved.
I think she made up her mind by herself.
No matter whether she is right or wrong, no one dares to correct it.
It's a welcome step forward for them to be able to speak up like that.
Wait for them to discuss about it.
Jiang Tian said her plan, she decided to sell orange syrup, and the price was set at 10 yuan a bowl.
Limited to 50 copies per day, while stocks last.
Hearing what he said, everyone didn't persuade him again, anyway, he prepared a limited amount of 50 copies a day, and if he really lost money, it would be about one or two silver a day.
It's about the same as Jiang Tian's estimate.
After the orange syrup was added to the menu, no one bought it.
Xiaodong and the others looked at the bowl of orange syrup made every day that could not be sold, and they were anxious.
No matter how hard they try to sell, the customers who come to the store to eat just don't want to pay the extra 7 yuan to try the orange syrup.
Here comes the uncle of the plane today.
He looked thoughtful, wearing a crescent white coat and a white jacket, after he sat down, Xiaodong personally came to report the menu, and brought him a pot of fire and put it under the table to keep warm.
"Little brother give me all the dim sum in your store, I want to try it and buy some for my family, in addition, you will also give me a bowl of orange syrup, and you will also bring me some salty and sweet rice balls."
As soon as Xiaodong heard that someone was finally willing to order orange syrup, he immediately stepped back to help him order the menu.
After a while, he was busy running over again, "This distinguished guest, I see that you are alone, and there are as many as eight or nine yuan for a snack." Among them, there must be something you don't like to eat, and you want to give you a piece of each snack, and then calculate the money for you according to the unit price of a penny, do you think it's okay? ”
"There are also glutinous rice balls, my family has two kinds of salty and sweet flavors, but there are several kinds of sweet glutinous rice ball fillings, I will also pack them separately for you, and finally count the money according to a single grain, okay?"
The uncle didn't expect Xiaodong to think so thoughtfully.
Nod your head in agreement.
Soon after, Xiaodong and two men directly served him 60 plates of different colors.
"This distinguished guest, from here to here, is white sugar cake, ruyi cake, horseshoe cake, osmanthus cake, almond cake, walnut cake...... Order different dim sum, use different kinds of plates, you can use it slowly, wait for you to taste, decide which types of dim sum to choose, and I will help you register. ”
After all the dumplings were served, Xiao Dong personally brought the orange syrup to him, "This bowl is a new product in our store, orange syrup, please use it slowly." ”
Within two days, the Jiang family's dim sum shop received a big order from the largest Queqiao Pavilion in the Imperial City.
The boss of this Queqiao restaurant is the uncle who came to the store to eat dim sum two days ago.
He asked for it five days later, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, that is, on the day of the Lantern Festival.
They need to prepare 888 servings of orange syrup, 88 servings of glutinous rice balls with red bean paste filling, 88 servings of tangyuan with peanut and sesame filling, and 3,000 sets of dim sum gift boxes.
The dim sum gift box must contain the 8 kinds of dim sum he requested.
For this reason, Jiang Tian also specially drew a mold of "Queqiao Meeting Map" and personally showed it to Boss Gu.
After he saw the pressed pattern, he felt very happy and suitable for the occasion, so he added 3,000 sets of dim sum gift boxes.
Jiang Tian is a real person, and when he saw him taking care of his business so much, he gave him a discount with a wave of his hand.
I don't know who spread the news, and the next day it attracted many people to enter the store to try orange syrup.
Jiang Tian didn't know until soon later that Boss Gu was the most famous gold medal iceman in the Imperial City.
There are as many as 30,000 pairs of good relationships matched by his subordinates.
Others are notoriously picky, especially the things he sells in the Queqiao Pavilion, and he has to try them on himself before he can make a decision.
Many people in the imperial city thought that as long as it was something he liked to eat, the taste would definitely not be bad, so they came to order a bowl of orange syrup to try it.
And Jiang Tian's orange syrup is full of ingredients
After buying a bowl, I mixed it with two catties of water after I went back, and it was still very sweet, so everyone also felt that it was more cost-effective than buying white sugar to drink.
