The first day of the training began.

Looking at the large pile of ingredients in the training kitchen, Gao Dian fell into deep thought.

With so many ingredients, are you running out?

At this time, Yu Lao came in and said: "Everyone has seen these ingredients, this is the amount of cooking for everyone at one time, and there are many more later, everyone must use them all." ”

Suddenly, Gao Dian's face tightened, so many ingredients were all used up, I'm afraid this is not fake, right?

There are already a lot of ingredients piled up in the kitchen now, and this is only the amount of cooking at one time, and there will be more later.

The other two newcomers also changed their expressions slightly, so many ingredients have to be used up, how much training is there?

The faces of the newcomers changed, while the old people already knew and were mentally prepared.

"The amount of cooking I prepare for you at one time is the standard for the state banquet, that is to say, there are so many ingredients for the state banquet at that time." Yu Lao said.

When everyone heard this, their faces froze, and the three newcomers suddenly understood a little.

Elder Yu didn't deliberately fix them, but really trained.

The amount of cooking at the state banquet, if you stick to it when the time comes, when you cook at the state banquet, there are so many ingredients, then the training on weekdays is very normal.

Gao Dian was speechless, no wonder there was a saying that he could leave if he couldn't hold on, so many ingredients, cooking at one time, maybe someone really couldn't hold on.

The amount is large, and the cooking is also difficult!

Especially this amount, it is several times more difficult to do than they usually do.

Under this kind of difficulty, it is already rare to be able to stabilize the original level, let alone play at a super level.

Then, Yu Lao clapped his hands and said, "Come in." ”

From outside the kitchen, a group of people came in, and these people were dressed in uniform clothes, which were chef's uniforms.

At this time, Yu Lao said: "They are your helpers, some of the processing of ingredients, and some simple processes in cooking, you can all hand them over to do, and now they will accompany you to practice." ”

There was actually a kitchen helper, which made Gao Dian slightly stunned, and then he knew that he had something to do.

He used to cook, because the amount of cooking at one time was not particularly large, so he did all the process alone.

He hadn't used it before, and he didn't think he needed it.

Because every step of the cooking process is not at ease when it is handed over to the assistant cook.

But with such a large amount of cooking, if he really wanted to come alone, it would be really scrambling.

With a cook, some simple steps can be handed over to the helper chef to do, so that he will be much calmer.

Of course, this is not easy.

"Now, in groups of five, everyone will put together their own." Yu Lao said.

Soon, the following cooks were grouped together, and those who were familiar to everyone and cooperated well were grouped together.

This is also the reason why Yu Lao asked them to combine it by themselves.

"Let's choose each other." Yu Lao said.

When everyone heard this, there was no movement for a while, and then they started to move and began to combine.

In fact, the so-called mutual choice is that the chef takes the initiative to find them.

After all, they are all special first-class pastry chefs, and they still need some face.

Time passed slowly, most of the assistant chefs and head chefs were put together, but no one here in Gao Dian came to him.

He was too young, and these cooks were even older than him.

Relatively speaking, the cooks are still relatively young, in their thirties, and some even in their twenties.

This made Gao Dian a little embarrassed.

However, the people arranged by Yu Lao are just enough, so no matter what, everyone will have five assistant cooks.

Finally, someone came to Gao Dian, and this was already the last group.

Gao Dian knew very well in his heart that they had no choice but to find themselves.

Is there a dissatisfaction with them?

There must have been, but Gao Dian was only dissatisfied for a while, and then he didn't care too much about these people.

Gao Dian didn't even ask their names.

Seeing this, Yu Lao sighed slightly in his heart, Gao Dian's age was too young.

These assistant chefs are all second-level pastry chefs, and participating in the state banquet as assistant chefs is their only opportunity to participate in the state banquet.

Each of these people wants to participate in the state banquet, but whether they can participate or not is not up to them, but the chef they follow.

If the chef persists, they will be able to participate, and if the chef can't persevere, then they will have to quit.

And Gao Dian was too young, which made everyone who was interested in attending the state banquet not choose him for the first time.

The first time they choose are those chefs who have been famous for a long time, and when they are older, they are more stable, and they are more likely to persevere to the end.

The five people who followed Gao Dian were also reluctant, Gao Dian didn't talk to them much, and they didn't want to talk too much to Gao Dian.

Twin knives are like this, and no one wants to talk too much.

It is said to be cooperation, but the two sides are not particularly willing to be together.

Of course, there is no way around it.

Yu Lao didn't pay attention to it, compared to others, he was more optimistic about Gao Dian. Of course, there is no need for him to say these things.

"Okay, now that everyone has put it together, let's start practicing." Yu Lao said.

On the first day of practice, he didn't want to say too much, mainly to see if everyone could take the initiative to cooperate.

Some problems have to be exposed before they know how to solve them.

The crowd began to practice.

Gao Dian looked at his five assistant cooks, arranged some things for them, and then went to do his own thing.

The five of them glanced at each other, and then didn't say anything, and did what Gao Dian said.

Here, they have to listen to Gao Dian, what Gao Dian tells them to do, how to do it, they have to do what they are asked to do.

Disobedient?

That's impossible, as long as you still want to attend the state dinner, you have to be obedient.

Except, of course, those who directly give up attending state dinners.

The amount of cooking at one time is very large, and the preparation work in the early stage is a very troublesome thing.

Gao Dian is also the first time to make this amount of pastry, and he has no experience, so he can only do it according to the previous method first, and if he finally finds something inappropriate, he will make corrections.

has a plug-in, and Gao Dian also has this confidence.

Time passed slowly and the kitchen became a mess!

Because of the large amount of cooking to be cooked, there were some disputes over the use of kitchen utensils.

This is much more serious than before.

Although everyone has not yet reached the point of red faces, there is no peace between words.

A large amount of cooking means that more utensils are used, for example, if one oven has only so much capacity, it may be occupied by one person, and even another oven can be occupied.

Yu Lao looked at all this with a frown.

The old people are better, because they have cooperated before, and now they will subconsciously make a certain amount of active cooperation.

But newcomers are different, they don't have the experience to cooperate with each other, they all come at their own pace.

Among them, the same is true of Gaodian!

Although he didn't want to compete with others, there was no way, he had to grab it, otherwise, the best production time would have passed.

The pastries they make are not necessarily special, or luxurious. But the details must be very real.

Sometimes, the difference in taste lies in these details.

If you make it earlier and make it later, the taste is different.

That's why everyone is scrambling, because they have to compete to ensure the taste of their pasta.

If there were only old people, maybe the scene would not be so chaotic, but with three newcomers disrupting the situation, the scene would be chaotic.

Even the old people who are interested in cooperating are forced to cooperate.

It's a cooking that requires teamwork, and one person's problem can lead to a mess for the whole team.

It's like a domino.

Time passed slowly, and in the chaos, everyone finally finished cooking for the first time.

Yu Lao said with a dark face: "Look at your appearance, the kitchen is a mess of porridge!" Everyone is scrambling, and at the end of the day, you can see if the pastry you have made is up to par! ”

At this time, everyone was a little ashamed, and they didn't want to, but they couldn't control it when it was really cooking!

Everyone has a different pace, and it is easy to use kitchen utensils at the same time.

"If you go to the state banquet as you do now, it seems to me that the guests will not have to eat, they will all wait there." Yu Lao said.

Yu Lao almost pointed at everyone's nose and scolded, and everyone was ashamed.

Looking at everyone's expressions, Yu Lao breathed a sigh of relief.

At the beginning of the training, we must first let them know their current situation, so that the pride in their hearts can be reduced.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to carry out the whole training.

You don't put them to shame, and when you arrange them, there will be situations of non-cooperation.

He waited for a while before he said, "Everyone has to know how to cooperate, and the rhythm must be adjusted to make the overall rhythm harmonious."

I have a list of the order in which the dishes are served, not the final version, but the general order will not change, at most there will be cuts.

Next, everyone will practice according to this order of dishes. ”

The people took the list and looked at it and remembered their location.

On this list, there are their pastries, and the order in which they are served is different, and the interval between each dish is also different.

On their side, just make pastries. At the state banquet, there is more to it than just pastries.

The overall order of serving is also taken into account by the chef of the red case.

Of course, as Yu Lao said, this is not the final version, and the final version is still uncertain.

Just like the people here, maybe someone can't stand the training and chooses to leave, then the pastry he cooks will be deleted.

This is also the reason why Yu Lao said that there is only deletion, but the order is not changed.

Everyone also understood that each remembered his order and time.

Then, the group started the second exercise.

However, this exercise was nothing better than the first, it was still a mess.

Although there are some dishes in the order, because someone delays and makes mistakes, the following steps are all disrupted.

The order in which the dishes are served at the end doesn't match at all.

Of course, the situation in the competition for kitchen utensils is better, but the result has not changed.

Yu Lao did not reprimand again, one reprimand for this kind of thing is enough, and if you reprimand more, the final one may backfire.

It will cause everyone's rebellious psychology and force everyone away.

Allowed them to practice, Elder Yu didn't even look at it anymore.

Time passed like this, and it wasn't until almost the early hours of the morning that they finished practicing all the ingredients for today.

It was several hours later than expected.

That's why we didn't cooperate, and we wasted a lot of time.

Everyone dragged their tired bodies back to the hotel and almost fell asleep.

Gao Dian sent a message to Wei Qiaoyi before, telling her that she might not be able to call today, and Wei Qiaoyi expressed her understanding.

…………

Yu Lao returned home and planned in the study.

Through his observations today, he has roughly discovered the amount of time it takes for everyone to cook pastry.

Due to the different pastries, the difficulty of cooking and the ingredients required are different, and the cooking time is also different.

What Elder Yu has to do now is to integrate everyone's steps to form a complete plan.

Make full use of all your time and avoid wasting time by competing for kitchen utensils.

Designing this is quite difficult, and there are many factors to consider.

Of course, this is not the first time Yu Lao has done it, he has done it many times before, and he almost has to do it once every time there is a large state banquet.

Although the situation is different every time, there is also experience.

Time passed slowly, and Yu Lao was still writing and drawing.

Suddenly, the door to the study was gently pushed open.

An old woman walked in softly, carrying a bowl of chicken soup in her hand.

She gently put the chicken soup on the table, and looked at Yu Lao's distressed arrangement, and felt distressed in her heart.

"Old man, drink this bowl of chicken soup and think again." The old woman said.

When Yu Lao heard this, he put down his pen and looked at his wife, answered, picked up the chicken soup and drank it.

"You rest early, don't stay up too long, last time the doctor said to let you stay up less late and rest more." The old woman said.

"It's okay, I'm almost done here, I'll rest when I'm done." Yu Lao said.

"Are you going to retire, every time you work so hard, where can your body hold up." The old woman said.

"After this state banquet, I'm ready to retire, and my body is really a little unbearable. Okay, you go and rest first, don't wait for me. Yu Lao said.

When the old woman heard this, she sighed lightly, and every time she said this, it had been a few years, and she had not retired.

But what could she do?

She exited the study and returned to her room.

When Yu Lao saw her go out, he sighed secretly, he also wanted to retire, but where was it so easy?

His own body knows that the decline in the past two years has been terrible, and he has long had the idea of retiring.

But the problem is that he must find a successor before he retires.

Originally, he was very optimistic about Gao Dian, but Gao Dian refused.

For a while, Old Man Yu was a little envious of Old Man Wei, who found the inheritor, but he couldn't find anyone in his own class.

After feeling a sigh in his heart, Yu Lao continued to cheer up and plan there.
