Chapter 375: Test
"The test of change is out." Wei Qiaoyi said suddenly.
"What's the test?" Gao Dian asked.
"See for yourself." Wei Qiaoyi handed over the phone.
Gao Dian looked at the content above.
The content of the test is three questions, and if you make three noodles according to the three questions, as long as you pass, you can pass the test.
The standard of qualification this time is very high, and it is only when you reach an excellent level that you can be considered qualified.
As for whether it can reach an excellent level, it is up to the jury to judge.
"There's no title on this?" Gao Dian asked.
"The topic is to come out again on the spot, so naturally it will not be written." Wei Qiaoyi said.
"On-the-spot questions? To reach the level of excellence, isn't it deliberately embarrassing? Gao Dian said dissatisfied.
If you give the question directly now, then it is not too difficult, after all, it is only at an excellent level. The four first-class pastry chefs in Dianxin Building are still afraid that they can't make three excellent level pastries?
Even if they don't, there are some second-level pastry chefs. Besides, the second-level pastry master can't, Gao Dian can also learn now, with his ability to plug in, plus his current level, it won't take much time to learn a pastry to an excellent level.
However, it is difficult to produce on the spot.
There are so many pastries in Huaguo, even though there are many people in Dianxinlou, but the noodles that add up to the meeting are only a drop in the ocean.
What if there is a pastry that no one knows when the question is asked?
On-site learning?
That's almost impossible.
Wei Qiaoyi said: "No way, although it is a little difficult, there are also some opportunities. I don't think they should come up with that kind of question that is too biased, otherwise, the test will be meaningless. ”
"I hope so." Gao Dian said.
He thought that this test would not be easy, but he also did not think that it would be so difficult.
But if they want Dianxinlou to be on the list now, they can only grit their teeth and accept it.
In fact, they can not accept it, in that case, Dianxinlou will have to wait a long time to be on the list.
The difference in time before and after is also very large.
…………
In the office, Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi called everyone over for a meeting and told them about the test.
In an instant, everyone was talking, the question was made on the spot, and the test of making pastries on the spot obviously made everyone a little worried, which sounded not simple.
It's fine if it's what they're good at, but if it's something they're not good at, it's nerve-wracking.
After everyone talked for a while, Gao Dian clapped his hands and said: "Everyone be quiet, this test is very important to Dianxinlou, so everyone go back and prepare, and if the topic is suitable for whom, let whoever make the pastry." ”
After the last competition with Jin Manlou, Gao Dian's prestige in the hearts of everyone has risen to a new level, and he has even surpassed Wei Qiaoyi.
When everyone heard this, they all nodded.
Everyone is willing to contribute to this test, although they are not particularly proactive, but they are not repulsed.
They all understand a truth, if Dianxinlou gets better, they will also get better.
That Jin Manlou is an example.
After the collapse of Jinmanlou, it is said that many people are still looking for work.
The treatment of Dianxinlou is okay, and the two bosses are not the kind of harsh people, and everyone doesn't want to change jobs.
"Mr. Gao, don't worry, I will definitely do my best when the time comes."
"yes, we'll do our best."
Hearing the following answer, Gao Dian showed a smile on his face and said, "Then I'll be here to thank you all in advance." ”
Then, after a few words of encouragement, Gao Dian asked everyone to go back to the kitchen.
Seeing everyone go out one after another, Gao Dian left Yao Jun and Li Dongyang behind.
After the others left, Gao Dian said: "This test mainly depends on the four of us, if you have time, I want you to learn one or two more other noodles to prepare." ”
Hearing Gao Dian's words, Yao Jun smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Gao, I want to too, but I'm old, I'm afraid I can't do it." ”
Li Dongyang said: "Gao Dian, this is not to say that you can learn if you want to, we will all be in a certain aspect, but there is no big problem in learning this aspect of pastry, but it is very difficult to learn other aspects of pastry." And the same kind of pastry, in fact, is not very helpful. ”
When Gao Dian heard this, he frowned slightly, and then Wei Qiaoyi also whispered: "What Li Dongyang said is right. ”
Seeing Gao Dian looking at himself, Wei Qiaoyi immediately explained: "The study of pastry is actually similar to going to school, it is the foundation of learning at the beginning, and I will dabble in various aspects, but it is not deep.
As the level of cooking skills gradually improves, everyone will concentrate on learning a certain type of pastry, and other pastries may be a little, but not deep enough. ”
When Gao Dian heard this, he understood.
In fact, just like reading, junior high school, high school, college students, graduate students, and doctors, learning is getting more and more detailed.
What's more, Wei Qiaoyi didn't say that the reason why many people only have one type is because of their teacher.
No one can worship two masters, so all the noodles that will be passed down by their own masters are the pastries.
Of course, a type of pastry is enough to learn and specialize, and it is not necessarily a good thing to know too much.
This made Gao Dian feel a little sorry in his heart, he originally thought that everyone would learn a few more pastries to deal with it, but it didn't work.
"It's okay, anyway, let's prepare more first, and then we'll talk about it then." Gao Dian said with a smile.
Afterwards, they went back to the kitchen.
………………
Time passed slowly, and it was a few days in a flash.
Although a few people can't learn other pastries, Gao Dian can, these days, he has learned two kinds of pastries, as a countermeasure.
The time for the test came as scheduled.
The jury, composed of the top 10 restaurants on the list, came to the Dianxin Building.
The first one is Hu Zheng.
Although Du Dawei also came, he did not serve as the team leader, and the reason why this was so was to avoid suspicion.
In fact, many people know that there is a relationship between the Appreciation Building and the Dianxin Building.
After all, Wei Qiaoyi, one of the owners of Dianxin Building, is the daughter of the owner of Appreciation Building.
Therefore, it is obviously inappropriate for Appreciation House to serve as the team leader.
As we all know, the Taste Building and the Appreciation Building have always been at odds, so there is no opinion on letting the Taste Building serve as the team leader.
It stands to reason that the taste building is not suitable. The most suitable should be able to come to a restaurant or restaurant that has nothing to do with Dianxin Building.
The fact that Taste House can serve as the team leader is actually the result of discussions between all parties.
To put it simply, all parties do not want the rise of Dianxinlou.
But there was no obvious suppression, so he sent the taste building, which was not dealing with the taste building, as the team leader.
If it's a Dianxin shop, it won't be so troublesome, after all, the market of Dianxin shop is not the same as them.
Dianxin Building is the same.
The market is only so big, so naturally I don't want Dianxinlou to come in and get a piece of the pie.
When the jury entered the Dianxin Building, they were warmly received and sent to the box that had been prepared at the beginning.
Avoid interacting with guests who are eating out.
Gao Dian came out after a while, and said with a smile: "Everyone, good afternoon." ”
Everyone responded with a smile on their faces, and then everyone began to greet each other.
Du Dawei's eyes were slightly complicated when he looked at Gao Dian, but he didn't show anything.
After the greetings, let's get to the point.
"Boss Gao, I have something to say directly, let's start the test now." Hu Zheng said.
Gao Dian smiled and said, "This is nature, so let's start now." ”
Hu Zheng looked at everyone, and then said: "This first question is a dessert that is not noodles and rice. ”
Hearing this, Gao Dian nodded and said, "Okay, I know." Another question, I wonder what is the time limit? ”
Hu Zheng said: "There is no limit, but we leave at 7 p.m. ”
When Gao Dian heard this, he understood the meaning of these words.
"Okay, let's sit down for a while, I'll go to the kitchen first." Gao Dian said with a smile.
"Boss Gao, please take care of yourself." Hu Zheng said.
After leaving the private room, Gao Dian came to the kitchen, and everyone's eyes looked at him.
Wei Qiaoyi couldn't help but ask, "What is the first question?" ”
Gao Dian took a deep breath and said, "It's not a dessert that is not noodles or rice." ”
When Wei Qiaoyi heard this, he pondered for a while and said, "I'll bring this noodle." ”
Gao Dian naturally had no opinion on this, in fact, what he wanted in his heart was to let Wei Qiaoyi do this.
You must know that desserts should not be difficult for Wei Qiaoyi. When Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi met at that time, Wei Qiaoyi opened a dessert shop.
It can be said that for the study of desserts, Wei Qiaoyi is more than others.
"That's hard work, but can you do it as fast as you can?" Gao Dian asked.
Hearing this, Wei Qiaoyi was puzzled: "What? And a time limit? ”
Gao Dian said: "They said no, but they will leave at seven o'clock, which means that if we don't complete the three questions by seven o'clock, we will be considered a failure in the test."
So I think if you can be faster, try to be as fast as possible, so that you can leave more time for the next questions. ”
"I see, I'll be faster, don't worry." Wei Qiaoyi said.
"Hmm." Gao Dian nodded.
For Wei Qiaoyi, Gao Dian is naturally very relieved, it can be said that in this kitchen, there is nothing more reassuring to him than Wei Qiaoyi.
The topic of non-flour and non-rice desserts is not too difficult, there are too many such desserts, such as mung bean cake, jade bean cake, almond tofu, etc., all of which meet the topic.
But Gao Dian felt a trace of surprise and worry in his heart.
You must know that in the Dianxin Building, there are no desserts that are non-noodles and non-rice.
There is no shortage of desserts, but most of the desserts are made of flour or glutinous rice flour.
But if it is not noodles or rice, all the desserts in Dianxinlou will be denied. You must know that there are many types of flour and rice noodles, and both types of ingredients are limited, and there are fewer ingredients to choose from.
The problem is that Dian Xin Lou does not sell such desserts.
The information conveyed by this question is worrying, Gao Dian doesn't know if others have seen it, but he has seen it anyway.
There are no non-noodles and non-rice desserts in Dianxin Building, but the title is non-noodles and non-rice desserts.
In other words, there is a deliberate implication in this.
This is only the first question, and there are two more questions, who knows what kind of difficult questions it will be.
As far as the first question is concerned, if it weren't for Wei Qiaoyi's own ability to have more desserts, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Dianxinlou to hand over the answer sheet for this question.
Gao Dian's heart was a little heavy, it seems that this test is not good.
Wei Qiaoyi is concentrating on making desserts for this topic.
Desserts make up a large part of her pastries, but most of them are Western-style desserts.
Wei Qiaoyi learned a lot of Western-style desserts before, but he didn't know much about Chinese-style desserts.
This time it is on behalf of Dianxinlou to pass the test, so when she chooses desserts, she naturally pays attention to choosing Chinese desserts.
Western-style sweets are a bit out of place.
In fact, Chinese desserts are extremely prosperous, and there are desserts made with various ingredients.
There are many desserts that are not noodles or rice.
But for the whole, it's really not much.
This is not the difficulty of the question, the real difficulty lies in whether the dessert chosen can be of an excellent level.
In fact, there are so many Chinese noodles, and you can always find the corresponding to any topic, but whether you can make it and whether you can do it well is the key.
Wei Qiaoyi's dessert is almond tofu.
Coincidentally, a few days ago, she specialized in almond tofu.
Almond tofu is undoubtedly in line with the topic, because the ingredients used in almond tofu are almonds, not noodles and rice.
The process of making almond tofu is simple, it is to grind the almonds into a pulp, cook them, cool them and solidify, and then cut them into pieces and eat them.
Of course, this is the way to do it, but to make it delicious, you need to add various condiments.
For example, milk, sugar, osmanthus and so on.
This pastry was handed over to Wei Qiaoyi, and the others were busy with their own.
Gao Dian didn't do anything else, he waited quietly.
There are some things that he still needs to preside.
After a while, Wei Qiaoyi brought out some almond tofu and said, "I'm ready, let's put it in a bowl and serve it." ”
Gao Dian answered, beckoning everyone to load the dishes and put them on the plate, and then someone pushed the dining cart to the private room, and Gao Dian also followed.
He wants to know whether the first question has passed or not, and there is also a second question that needs to be known, so he naturally has to follow along.
When he came to the private room, Gao Dian smiled and said to everyone: "The first pastry, almond tofu, please taste it." ”
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other and nodded, and Hu Zheng said: "Almond tofu is in line with the topic, so ...... Let's try it together. ”
Gao Dian watched from the sidelines, waiting for them to taste the pastry.
Everyone picked up the almond tofu in front of them and began to taste it slowly.
Time passed slowly, and everyone had finished tasting it.
Hu Zheng said: "This almond tofu is smooth and delicate, and when you bite it gently, the taste of almonds will explode, and the sweet and refreshing taste, with milk and osmanthus, is endless." ”
Everyone nodded and agreed with Hu Zheng's statement.
"So, did this first pastry pass the test?" Gao Dian asked.
"Naturally, it passed, do you have any opinions?" Hu Zheng said, glancing at the others and asking.
"Nope."
"No comment."
"Of course it's passed."
Everyone said.
Although they make it difficult, they will not say that they will not pass the test.
