Chapter Ninety-Four: The Menu Meeting

"I thought that everyone who came to apply for the job would definitely lose money if they gave twenty copper plates, but the result was ...... It also made three times as much. Jin Feng counted the copper plates from the sale of tickets in the box, and his hands cramped when he counted them.

She loosened her fingers, held her cheeks and looked at Yulu, looking loveless, "That's all for the rematch...... What do you say is in Tiyun's brain? How can there be so many ideas? ”

When Yulu heard this title, she raised her eyebrows and pointed at her.

"What a withdrawal! I want to call Xu Gongzi! Jin Feng slapped himself in the face, took out ten copper plates from his pocket, and threw them into the box, "Do you say that Gongzi is a golden toad who will spit out money in the gold shop?" ”

“*。” Gyokuro raised an eyebrow. It is because of this sentence that she painted golden fish scales for Tiyun, and she always felt that Qingchuan in the future would definitely be a golden world.

The semi-finals have ended, and in the end, there are six people left to enter the finals, and among these six people, Ruxu has taken a fancy to one person. This person's name is Ah Lang, and he is really a rare talent.

On the day he came to the first exam, his clothes were shabby, and his head and face were covered with dirt. He had an iron pot on his back, and nothing else. I heard that he came from outside the customs and was penniless, so it doesn't matter where he goes. Seeing that he was dirty, Ruxu found someone to fetch water for him to take a bath, and as soon as he came out with a change of clothes, Ruxu's eyes were straight when he saw it.

This Ah Lang's appearance can be described in two words, cold and glamorous. Sword eyebrows and starry eyes, hooked nose and thin lips, a bit of exoticism, without losing the masculinity of a man, is very different from the men in the Central Plains. Although he has never studied any cuisine, he has his own set of cooking methods.

Ruxu tried him several times, described the ingredients and taste of several dishes to him, he can almost completely understand the meaning of Ru Xu, understand Ru Xu's requirements for the color of the dish, and the color and aroma of the dishes made by him have reached the same level as the eight images that Ru Xu said. The point is that many of the dishes mentioned by Xu are modern cooking methods, and Nanchengguo has not yet appeared.

This cliff is a genius, very malleable, and so handsome, Peach Blossom must like it. Ruxu looked at him, and a golden light appeared in his eyes. Even if he couldn't finish in the top three in the finals, Ru Xu had already decided to leave him in the Guiling Mansion to be a home cook.

On the day of the finals, it was held in the Washeri of Huayulou, and he was asked to rent the venue for the whole day.

In this final competition, each participating chef was given 10 chili peppers and asked them to use them as an ingredient to make three dishes.

Among the chefs, Peach Blossom likes two the most, one is Ah Lang, and the other is Dada, who is chubby. Dada is good at making all kinds of dim sum and is also a chef who is determined to be brought home.

As soon as he got the chili pepper in his hand, Dada and Ah Lang took a bite first, and then cried with spicy. After thinking about it for a while, I started to prepare. Others have their own methods, such as shredding them first and then tasting them, or they can cook one first to see how it tastes.

Among the other four, there is a middle-aged man with a bearded face, his stir-fry skills are simply not covered, and it is said that his hometown is in Shudi. Ruxu thought about the geographical location and found that he was a Sichuanese.

The other three also have their own strengths, stewed soup, steamed and cold salad, all of which are the talents that Xu wants. The reason why there are finals is just to see how receptive people are to new things. The artist is bold, not only to have good craftsmanship, but also to have a heart that dares to innovate.

Half an hour passed quickly, and Qin Huan, who was the host, shouted excitedly to stop, and then everyone came up with the dishes they had made. Ruxu glanced at it and thought it was very good, and suddenly saw the dishes made by the Sichuanese man with a bearded face, and the three bowls were all stir-fried fungus pork, but one bowl was smaller than the other.

She quipped, "Old Yue, what you did is so small that one is smaller than the other?" I'll try what you made first. ”

After trying three bowls, Ruxu's heart jumped. Three bowls of stir-fried vegetables, although the ingredients are the same, but the spicy taste is different. Consciously separating the levels of spiciness, it must have taken into account the needs of the guests.

"The old man thought, if the restaurant opens in the future, the guests will be shaped*, and different guests will have different receptivity, so I want to make three flavors of spicy, at least Boss Jin doesn't have to worry about the doll can't be eaten, so he can let the peach blossoms taste it." Sure enough, the old man surnamed Yue was indeed thoughtful.

Peach Blossom stretched out her chopsticks and took a bite when she heard this, smiling at the old man. Ruxu nodded with satisfaction, and quietly exchanged opinions with Su Rong and Xi Mingxian next to him.

Dada in the back made three pepper pickling sour, although the time is not long, and the pepper is not enough to taste, but it is really amazing. The thought of pickling is a big step forward.

Ah Lang adjusted three kinds of spicy flavors, sweet and spicy, sour and spicy, which was the most satisfying "dish" on the scene. She cried with joy when she tasted it, and sure enough, it was my intimate padded jacket, and she actually knew what my sister liked to eat the most......

The performance of the other three is also remarkable, so I will not repeat it here.

The last six were recruited to work in the restaurant as head chefs, and they were asked to choose a helper from the chefs in the previous semi-finals. However, the restaurant has not yet opened, and the menu needs to be finalized, so it is permissible to let them live in the west wing of Dongze Erxian in Guiling Mansion first.

The next day, Ruxu led everyone to Xikun Yiding for a meeting, along with Xiao Peach Blossom and Jin Feng, and everyone sat in a room, discussing what facilities need to be added to the backyard of the restaurant.

"You don't have to worry, all proposals are for the restaurant, not for individuals, please speak freely." Ruxu said with a smile.

Everyone whispered around to discuss, and then Yue Lao said, "I need a cellar." ”

"Raise your hand in agreement with the establishment of the cellar." As you counted, count the number of people who raised their hands.

"Write it down." Ruxu whispered a word to Jin Feng, and Jin Feng took a pen and wrote it down in the record book.

Then Dada added, "One less grinding disc." ”

After about two minutes of discussion, everyone agreed and the addition of facilities was completed.

The chefs present all liked this solution to the problem, first of all, it showed that Ruxu respected the chef, was willing to listen to the needs of the chef, and voted democratically, and secondly, it also showed that Ruxu was serious about the restaurant and the food.

After a meeting, everyone's goodwill towards Ruxu reached an unprecedented height.

After the facility meeting, immediately after Jin Feng quickly wrote a few words, the special official said, "The first menu meeting of Jin Bu Chang Restaurant starts now." ”

"In the first few months of the restaurant's opening, I wanted to set up four dishes first. First, appetizers and desserts. The second is stir-fry, the third is stewed, and the fourth, steamed. Ruxu looked at Jinfeng, Jinfeng was already recording.

"I asked to prepare six appetizers and desserts before the meal, such as salads, fruit plate pastries, etc., and six appetizers and pastries." After Xu finished speaking, he then explained the meaning of the appetizer and fruit bowl again, "This piece will be handed over to Dada and Qingfeng." ”

"Now let's talk about the main dish, the main dish is divided into stir-fried and steamed, no matter which one, at least half of the dishes should be spicy, but not too spicy. Because the people of Qingchuan have never eaten spicy food, I am afraid that they will not be able to accept it in terms of taste, psychology and physiology. As he spoke, Ru Xu instructed Jin Feng on how to record the key words in the sentence.

"Eating too spicy food may cause diarrhea, and the health of the population must be taken care of. So Yue Lao's three spicy, we first come out with two spicy, slightly spicy and medium spicy. There are twelve stir-fried dishes, and this part will be handed over to Yue Lao. ”

Yue Lao nodded towards Ruxu.

"Then it's steaming. Steaming is still according to the traditional dish. However, I asked for at least six main courses and six spicy dishes. As for what can cure the spicy, you can ask the Yulu girl in the house. This part will be handed over to Zijie and Liang Gu. ”

"Of course, if you're brave enough to ask Gyokuro......" Jin Feng answered, and Peach Blossom listened attentively beside him.

Ru Xu glanced at Jin Feng, and then looked at Ah Lang, "Of course, you can also add sweet and spicy, sour and spicy to some dishes. In the same way, don't be too spicy. The development of these three spicy flavors will be left to Ah Lang, so Ah Lang will help everyone finalize the menu of the main course. ”

"I still have five catties of chili peppers here, and everyone can use them according to the needs of the sample dishes. Ten days later, Peach Blossom and I started to try the dishes, and everyone was ready. After Ruxu finished speaking, he added, "Do you have any objections?" ”

Everyone present was stunned and shook their heads.

"I discussed with Peach Blossom, and every seven days, we will invite two chefs to come to the Guiling Mansion to cook for us, and you will come over in turn in order, but don't forget, otherwise we will only have to drink the northwest wind. In addition, during the seven days when the chef came to Guiling Mansion to cook for us, the deputy had to take the position of the chef and help cook in the restaurant. Do you understand? Ruxu looked at the twelve people in front of him.

"Got it!" Cooking at Guiling Mansion is tantamount to giving the chefs time to rest on vacation, and the rotation system is also very fair. In addition, the deputies also had the opportunity to show their skills in the restaurant, and everyone was excited.

"Alright, the meeting is over, everyone follow me to the kitchen." Ruxu took the peach blossoms and led everyone to the kitchen together.

In the kitchen, I demonstrated the most common use of chili peppers, and then made a soup that everyone praised after tasting it. In the end, Ruxu also took the remaining phoenix feet and radish skin for everyone to taste, and Qingfeng and Dada, who made cold salads and dim sum, took a small bite, and their spicy saliva flowed, but they couldn't stop their mouths.

"I'm worried that you don't know about chili peppers, so I'm going to take an axe in front of you. Of course, my dish is not a delicacy in the world, but it can be called delicious. I hope you can prepare better dishes, thank you for your help. "Everyone who said this was moved.

In the past, they worked as cooks elsewhere, and they never had such treatment, not to mention respect, and it was good not to be deducted from their wages.
