Chapter 11: Promoted to the eighth level of chef, the stupid pillar is stupid
Li Changming has already appeared, but he will not give Li Ye special help, he is just a fair person.
Whether or not he can pass the assessment depends on Li Ye's own ability.
There are two dishes of mapo tofu and stir-fried shredded potatoes, and Li Ye made mapo tofu first.
This dish takes a long time, if you make shredded potatoes first and then make mapo tofu, the shredded potatoes will come out of the pot early, and it may be cold at the review stage.
First of all, the ingredients needed for mapo tofu are tender tofu, bean paste, dried tempeh, green onions, ginger, garlic sprouts, etc.
There is no shortage of these materials, after all, this is a big factory's kitchen, there is not much meat, and the ingredients are complete.
The only thing that made Li Ye feel a little regretful was that there was no beef, and the authentic mapo tofu had to be made with beef foam.
However, in this era of scarcity of materials, you can't ask for too much, and it's good to give some pork instead of beef.
The two pork given are also pitiful, and a few people who cook vegetables, the amount of ten grams per person, is purely meaningful.
Li Ye chopped that little bit of lean meat into meat foam, adjusted the starch paste used for thickening, and soaked the dried tempeh.
The second step is to heat the pot on low heat, heat the pot, put the peppercorns into the pot and roast them slowly, and after a while, the aroma of the peppercorns will be stimulated and fill the entire kitchen.
Connoisseurs will know if there is one as soon as they make a move.
He Yuzhu is the heir of Tan family cuisine, and his Tan family cuisine should belong to the Sichuan Gang, not the combination of Beijing cuisine and Cantonese cuisine.
Therefore, He Yuzhu has a deeper understanding of Sichuan cuisine, otherwise the dishes he makes will not please the big leader, who is a native of Shudi.
Mapo tofu is also one of He Yuzhu's best dishes, and he knows how important Sichuan pepper is to the dish of mapo tofu.
Ordinary people make this dish, it is estimated that the pepper is used directly, where can I think of slow roasting over low heat to fully stimulate the fragrance of the pepper?
But this doesn't mean anything, it can't prove that Li Ye has the strength of a chef.
Li Ye's father and uncle are both chefs, and they can usually learn some skills that laymen don't know.
He Yuzhu thought so, but Li Ye's next performance surprised him again.
Add salt to the tofu cold underwater pot to remove the beany smell first, stir-fry the lean meat foam with hot meat, add bean paste and other seasonings one by one, stir-fry fragrant, crispy, and stir-fry thoroughly.
Every detail is very well grasped, and even he, the chef, can't find a single fault.
He Yuzhu even felt that when it came to the dish of mapo tofu alone, Li Ye had a deeper understanding than him.
This kid does have something, He Yuzhu secretly said in his heart, he recognized Li Ye's strength as a chef.
I saw Li Ye put in soy sauce and crushed peppercorns and other seasonings in turn, and when thickening, the starch paste was added three times, and the tofu was pushed with a shovel back, and the skills were directly full, and a set of operations was as smooth as flowing water.
Finally, a dish of mapo tofu with full color and flavor came out of the pot, and Li Ye finally sprinkled the last bit of green pepper and peppercorn on the surface of the mapo tofu.
Then, Li Ye immediately began to make the second course of stir-fried shredded potatoes.
Stir-fried shredded potatoes may seem simple, everyone can do it, but it is difficult to really do it well.
Because the shredded potatoes made by ordinary people can only be said to be fried shredded potatoes, there is a distance from the master.
Li Ye showed off his knife skills when cutting shredded potatoes, the shape and size of each shredded potato were basically the same, and after blanching, he stir-fried on high heat, added a little green pepper to decorate, and finally came out of the pot.
The shredded potatoes fried in this way have a unique fragrance of potatoes, and the original aroma of potatoes will not be preempted by green peppers.
The shredded potatoes are out of the pot, the mapo tofu is still hot, and Li Ye's two dishes have been completed.
Seeing this, He Yuzhu had already realized that something was wrong.
It's over, does he really have to call Li Ye grandpa today? Does he want to lose face as the god of war in the courtyard house?
Li Ye's two dishes were brought to the judges, Li Changming picked up a piece of mapo tofu and put it in his mouth, the entrance was spicy and fragrant, and the impact of the taste quickly conquered his taste buds.
Li Changming gave Li Ye an approving look, this mapo tofu is beautifully done, compared to Li Jianye's craftsmanship, it is not inferior, or even better, he wants a bowl of rice to match.
The son of an old subordinate, smart, capable, and able to do things, this is a talent!
Li Changming suddenly gave birth to a heart of love for talent.
Li Changming sandwiched a little fried shredded potatoes, which was fragrant and sweet, impeccable.
What an interesting kid.
"Li Ye's cooking skills are not inferior to the two Chef Li back then, and his skills can be used to open a small stove for the leader, what do you think?"
Li Changming looked at the director of the canteen, the head of the canteen, and the factory secretary.
First of all, Li Ye's cooking is really amazing, an absolute master level, they can't say bad with a clear conscience.
Secondly, Li Changming highly praised it, obviously the food cooked by Li Ye was very much in line with his appetite, and it was a bit of a point to be promoted, everyone was a smart person, and it was thorough.
"After all, it's Chef Li's son, so he definitely doesn't have to be picky about his cooking skills.
In fact, Chef Li passed away three years ago, and Li Ye can take over Chef Li's class.
At that time, he was still young, only sixteen years old, and he had to start as an apprentice.
Now that three years have passed, Li Ye's cooking skills are not inferior to Chef Li, so it makes sense that Li Ye also has to be promoted to a chef, right? ”
The director of the cafeteria said with a serious expression.
"Yes, capable people can't be buried, Li Ye is enough to pass today's assessment with this skill alone, and there is no problem in becoming a chef."
The factory also said.
The canteen squad leader and they have the same meaning.
He Yuzhu panicked, he tasted Li Ye's mapo tofu and fried shredded potatoes, and he still couldn't find fault with the idea of picking thorns.
If you insist on finding faults, it is that mapo tofu is not authentic enough and does not use beef.
That's not a problem! Because there is no beef in the ingredients provided, does it make sense for you to blame the chef? It doesn't make sense.
He Yuzhu was silent.
He thought that Li Ye was so young that his cooking skills would not be too good, and he could criticize the opinions that would affect the other judges, but he didn't expect him to miscalculate.
"Okay, since everyone thinks so and thinks that they can't bury talents, then promote Li Ye to a second-level chef.
Since he is capable enough, he should be allowed to take over Chef Li's class and get a fifteen-level salary, thirty-seven yuan and five months, do you have any opinions? ”
Li Changming said again.
The second-level chef is at the same level as He Yuzhu, and the salary is the same, which is thirty-seven yuan and five.
Several leaders in charge of rating and assessment said that they had no opinion, and the matter was decided.
People originally took over the father's class to work in the canteen three years ago, and at that time the young ability was not enough, so he was an apprentice for the time being, and now that the ability has arrived, it is normal to officially take over the father's class.
Xu Damao, who was watching the play on the side, couldn't help but glance at Li Ye, and he had to fry a few dishes to have a relationship with Li Ye, this is a talent that can be wooed.
As for He Yuzhu, he seemed to have thought of something, and planned to slip away quietly.
How could Xu Damao let him go, and shouted loudly: "Silly Zhu, don't run, you run and you are a grandson." ”
Run? The show has just begun!
