Time is like the balance in your bank account, always running out before you know it, and by the time you realize it, it's almost bottoming out.

I won't even leave you a chance to feel distressed.

In the busy and busy period, a week will soon pass, and it is the day of the "double rest" of the No. 7 dining room.

This time, Lu Shuwu planned to rest on Saturday, and while he was making soup dumplings, he said to Jiang Yu with great interest:

"This Saturday, I plan to go to the Peach Blossom Festival in the suburbs with my little sister, and she wants to take some photos to use as materials.

I heard that many beauties will go to this peach blossom festival, and I don't know if I can bump into my peach blossoms, hehehe......

By the way, boss, do you want me to go out and bring you something? ”

Jiang Yu sat on the side drinking tea, turned his head to glance at him, and asked rhetorically:

"What can you bring?"

In the past week or so, he has taught Du Guangning how to make nearly half of the dishes on the "recommended menu" of the No. 7 dining room, and the daily workload is gradually reduced with the naked eye, so he doesn't feel too tired even if he goes to work continuously.

It is said that people are inert, and they don't want to be busy anymore when they are idle, but for Jiang Yu, he is still willing to be a little busy, so that his life will be more fulfilling.

After all, he is still young, and there is still such a long way to go in the future, if he doesn't want to move now, he can see the end of life at a glance, and it feels terrible to think about it.

The future is full of unknowns, and that will make people full of desire to explore.

It is precisely because of this that during this period of time, Jiang Yu has been thinking about whether to make some changes.

Of course, it's best to make the change one that doesn't take up a lot of your time.

Otherwise, he had just "escaped" from the "predicament" of the No. 7 dining room and entered a new "cage", so what was the point of trying to teach Du Guangning to learn to cook before?

"I don't know what I can bring now, didn't I ask you what you need!"

Lu Shuwu was speechless, he turned his head to look at Jiang Yu, and said,

"It seems to belong to the Meiling Mountains over there, why don't I go and see if there are any wild vegetables or something? Or do you want to get some fresh bamboo shoots like last time? ”

"Forget it, these things are too cumbersome to deal with."

Jiang Yu shook his head, he saw that Lu Shuwu seemed to be a little reluctant, and couldn't help but smile and said,

"If you really want to bring it, then bring me some peach blossoms back."

"Bring you peach blossom ......"

Lu Shuwu was stunned for a moment, and the whole person looked like a stupid goose.

I said I'm going to hit the peach blossoms, but you asked me to bring you a peach blossom?

What's so ...... Can you bring it?!

"What's that look on your face?"

Jiang Yu frowned, then reacted, shook his head a little helplessly and said,

"The peach blossom I'm talking about is a real peach blossom, the peach blossom that grows on the tree is not the peach blossom you think!"

"Really, what a peach blossom!"

Lu Shuwu was stunned for a moment, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

He still thinks that his boss misses spring and wants to bring him a "peach blossom" back, how can he have this ability?

But looking back, my boss is about to graduate from college now, and if he wants a career and a career, he wants to be famous, even if he really misses spring, it's normal.

emmmm,When I see my little sister tomorrow, I can ask her to help ask if there is a suitable female classmate.,If you can help the boss introduce a girlfriend.,Wouldn't this be a big credit?

Maybe the boss will be happy and teach himself a few more dishes!

He was playing Xiao Jiujiu in his heart, and the boss's voice came from his ears again:

"Of course it's a real peach blossom! You go there a little earlier tomorrow, and it's best to be able to go there before nine o'clock, and ask the people there if the peach blossoms are sold, and if they can, pick more and come back. ”

"Buy, buy peach blossoms? What to do when buying peach blossoms? ”

"Make peach blossom sauce, and make some peach blossom cakes by the way."

"Gollum!"

Hearing Jiang Yu say this, Lu Shuwu's nose seemed to smell a sweet fragrance of flowers, and his mouth began to secrete saliva like a reflex, making him swallow his saliva without helping.

Although he doesn't like sweets very much, with his previous experience, where would he not know that as long as it is something made by the boss, it must be delicious!

Thinking of this, his face was suddenly full of joy, and he hurriedly responded,

"Don't worry, boss, even if the other party doesn't sell it, I have to steal it back for him!"

“……”

Jiang Yu turned his head and looked at him a little speechlessly, not knowing what to say.

It's just a little peach blossom, don't you?

Early the next morning, Lu Shuwu drove early and took his little sister Lu Shuyao to participate in the Peach Blossom Festival.

The breakfast in the student cafeteria on the first floor has not changed much recently, the buns are still those buns, and the porridge is still those porridges.

The varieties of hot brine have not changed much, after all, no matter how hot the weather is, it will not be hot in the morning, and hot brine always feels cleaner and more hygienic than cold breight, so Lu Shuwu did not think about replacing it.

As for spring rolls and white sugar cakes, after all, they are both fried foods, which are somewhat greasy, and the appetite is already poor when the weather is hot, so there are even fewer people who are willing to eat them.

"From tomorrow, let's remove the spring rolls and sugar cakes."

Jiang Yu called Ma Guoqiang, who had just arrived in the cafeteria, over and discussed with him,

"Haven't you been yelling about some kind of cold noodles since last year? Then why don't you just sell the noodles at the window from tomorrow? ”

Jiang Yu said that the cold noodles refer to a flavor snack in Jiangzhou, Jiangzhou mixed noodles.

The method of mixing flour in Jiangzhou is extremely simple, put the fresh rice noodles into the boiling water and heat them on a plate, and then add the left ingredients such as fried snow mushrooms, chopped peppers, peanuts, diced radish, edible oil, soy sauce, green onions, etc., and mix evenly, and you can start eating.

Of course, the choice of ingredients can also be adjusted differently according to personal taste.

It is precisely because of its simplicity, delicious taste and easy to fill the stomach that Jiangzhou mixed noodles are definitely one of the favorite breakfasts of Jiangzhou people, which can be seen from the rice noodle shops all over the streets and alleys of Jiangzhou.

Before, Ma Guoqiang always thought about making Jiangzhou mixed noodles, and he also hoped that the students in Jiangzhou University could taste the special food of Jiangzhou, and if they didn't eat Jiangzhou mixed noodles once when they came to Jiangzhou, it was really the same as coming in vain.

"Yes, I'm sure I'll be fine."

Ma Guoqiang nodded without hesitation and said with a smile,

"The cold noodles I made still taste okay, but in order to make the students eat a little happier, boss, are you going to fry this snow mushroom [hong] yourself?"

"No problem, I'll help you fry it tonight."

Jiang Yu smiled and nodded, and after speaking, he seemed to remember something, and asked again,

"By the way, if you sell mixed noodles, who will make the buns in the future?"

"Xiao Feng, since Xiao Feng made white sugar cakes with me, he has also learned to make steamed buns every day."

Ma Guoqiang's face was full of pride, and he said with a smile,

"Although this kid doesn't talk much, he still works very hard, and he is willing to learn, not afraid of hardship, he didn't even know how to wrap a bun at the beginning, and after two days, he wrapped it decently, and now, although it's not very good, it's not bad, and the speed is much faster than some time ago."

"That'll do." Jiang Yu nodded.

The Xiao Feng that Ma Guoqiang said was Feng Yueqing, a young man from Xiaoxiang Jianning.

Some time ago, after Ma Guoqiang's new breakfast sugar cake was sold, it brought him a full sense of achievement, which also made Ma Guoqiang more motivated, thinking about making more white sugar cakes so that more students could taste it.

So, he found Jiang Yu and proposed to him that he wanted to take Feng Yueqing to do things together, and by the way, he taught him the skills of noodles.

Jiang Yu naturally had no opinion on this, and readily agreed.

However, Jiang Yu didn't expect that this Feng Yueqing actually had a little talent in Chinese pastry, and in such a short period of time, he not only learned to make white sugar cakes, but also learned to make steamed buns.

After Ma Guoqiang chatted with Jiang Yu for a few more words, he began to be busy frying the white sugar cake, Jiangzhou mixed noodles will not be sold until tomorrow, so today's white sugar cake is indispensable.

As for Jiang Yu, he naturally continued to sit there wrapped in soup dumplings.

The sound of the blower "rumbling" echoed in his ears, the air was wafting with the rich aroma of braised meat, and everyone in the kitchen was busy, all of which made Jiang Yu feel very relieved and fulfilled.

……

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Shuwu came back from the peach blossom bushes in the suburbs.

As soon as he came back, he ran back to the canteen to find Jiang Yu and said happily:

"Boss, I brought you back Peach Blossom, is two bags of hemp enough?"

"You compacted the peach blossoms?"

"That's for sure, otherwise the fluffy fresh peach blossoms won't be much in a sack!"

"Okay, it's peach blossom sauce anyway."

Jiang Yu thought about it, but he didn't dwell on this, and said to him,

"Where are the peach blossoms? Find a few people to lift it up with you and wash it first. ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and instructed Yan Tongtong,

"Xiao Yan, find a few big buckets for porridge, fill them with water, and use them to wash peach blossoms for a while."

"Uh-oh."

Yan Tongtong answered, turned around and ran out to get the bucket.

She didn't need to ask to know that the peach blossom sauce that Senior Brother Jiang said to make before was very fragrant and delicious when she thought about it!

If you take a bite of peach blossom sauce on a slice of bread, the taste is simply amazing!

Of course, Jiang Yu didn't think as much as Yan Tongtong and other girls, and after Lu Shuwu and a few part-time students moved in two bags of peach blossoms, he asked people to pick off the petals of the peach blossoms and put them in a bucket to rinse them clean.

It's still early for dinner, everyone in the kitchen is still idle, and when they see that the boss is going to make something delicious again, of course they're happy, and they don't need to be urged one by one, and they spontaneously catch up to help.

If you are lazy at this time, and the boss makes something delicious after a while, then why are you embarrassed to eat?

As soon as there were more people, things would be much faster, and it didn't take long for the peach blossoms in the two bags to be cleaned.

Next, it's time to make peach blossom sauce.

There are two ways to make peach blossom sauce.

One is to dry the washed petals and mash them directly with sugar, then put them in a canned and sealed refrigerator, and then use them after three or two days.

Another method is to directly put the washed peach petals into the pot with sugar and boil over low heat, stirring while boiling, until the lace becomes transparent, the syrup is viscous, and the whole is sauce-like.

The peach blossom sauce made by the second method can be eaten directly after it is done, whether it is soaked in water or dipped in bread, it tastes very good.

Because Jiang Yu made peach blossom sauce to make peach blossom cakes, it was naturally impossible to wait for two or three days, so he directly used the pot to burn the fire and used the second method to make peach blossom sauce.

It's not complicated to make peach blossom sauce, and Jiang Yu is ready to do it quickly.

After making the peach blossom sauce, you can start preparing to make peach blossom cakes, Jiang Yu turned his head and glanced at Ma Guoqiang and He Chunxiao, and asked with a smile:

"Uncle Ma, Sister He, you specialize in making pastries, you should do a good job of making mille-feuille shortbread, right?"

"I can do it, but I don't usually do much, and the oily skin and puff pastry are still so-so."

Ma Guoqiang will be will, no, no, he has always been frank and open, he said with a smile,

"As you know, I used to run a small noodle restaurant, and I spent half my life making steamed buns and ramen, so how can I usually make shortbread?

As for Xiao He, he has always been making steamed buns in the canteen, which canteen have you ever seen selling shortbread? ”

"Oh, that'll do."

Jiang Yu nodded, Ma Guoqiang made sense, if the store didn't sell this, who would think about making shortbread, if they wanted to eat it, spend a few dollars to buy it in the store to taste it?

You know, it's not easy to make shortbread, and even when it's done, you'll have to have the tools to bake it.

Now it's a lot more convenient to have an oven at home, the question is, how many people used to have an oven at home?

After thinking about it, he said again,

"Then why don't Uncle Ma and Sister He help roll out the oil skin and puff pastry? I'll get the filling right first, and then we'll make shortbread together. ”

"Okay, no problem."

"Okay."

Ma Guoqiang and He Chunxiao did not refuse, and responded with their mouths full.

Actually, it's not that hard.

The dough is actually rolled out with a portion of all-purpose flour, 1/3 part water, 1/4 of lard and an appropriate amount of sugar and flour, which has a soft taste and is relatively easy to pinch.

The puff pastry is a dough rolled out with a portion of low-gluten flour and 1/2 part of lard and dough, which is harder to the touch than the water-oil skin, and is more crispy and layered in taste.

After Ma Guoqiang and He Chunxiao responded, the two of them privately discussed who would roll the water and oil skin, who would roll the puff pastry and the weight of the dough, and then they started to act separately.

Jiang Yu fried some peanuts, and after frying, he pounded all the peanuts into crushed peanuts, and then fried the glutinous rice flour, and then poured both into the peach blossom sauce that had been served before, and stirred it evenly.

At this point, the filling of the peach blossom cake is ready.

At this time, Ma Guoqiang and He Chunxiao also rolled out the water and oil skin and puff pastry respectively, and kneaded them into small dough respectively, and put them on the eucalyptus board for fermentation.

"Is the dough all ready?"

"Well, it's all right, let's get started."

"Okay, let's start doing it, why don't I make a few for you to demonstrate first?"

"Don't bother, we'll do it after you, just remind you of the things that need attention."

"Okay."

Jiang Yu nodded, brought the adjusted filling to the operating table, pulled a chair over and sat down, and then began to make peach blossom cakes.

He first took a dough with oily skin and flattened it on a eucalyptus board, then reached out and took a half-smaller puff pastry dough and put it on it, and used the tiger's mouth of his left hand to push it up and close the mouth, wrapping the puff pastry dough with the oil skin and tightening the mouth.

"The closing must be done like I just did, and it can't be pinched into pleats like buns, which will form a pimple, and the puff pastry will be uneven."

While doing it, Jiang Yu explained to Ma Guoqiang and He Chunxiao,

"It takes about another 10 minutes for the dough to be put away, and it will be easier to roll out the dough after the dough has been raised.

Of course, we don't have to stop, and when the first dough is cooked, we can continue to wrap the puff pastry, and then the whole process can be connected. ”

"yes, okay."

Ma Guoqiang nodded, put aside the dough that had just been collected in his hand, and after a while, He Chunxiao also finished the first dough.

After all, both of them are professional pastry chefs, and the movements in their hands are not slow, and the reason why they need Jiang Yu's reminder is also because they are not familiar with the practice of mille-feuille.

Next, repeat the previous work of wrapping puff pastry in oily skin until about 20 pieces of dough are wrapped, and the first dough is almost ready.

Jiang Yu took the dough again, put the previous closing place facing down on the eucalyptus board, pressed it flat with his hands, and then took a rolling pin to roll it into a cow's tongue shape, and then rolled it into a roll from top to bottom, put it aside and continue to make it.

Jiang Yu said: "This process of rolling dough needs to be done twice, and each time after rolling the dough, it needs to be fermented, after repeated rolling and repeated stacking, so that the dough and lard are layered on top of each other, and the layers are clear, and the final cake will have a crispy taste." ”

"The boss is worthy of being the boss, we used to learn to do this time, but we don't know what the effect of each action will be."

Ma Guoqiang was busy with the work in hand, and he didn't forget to "pat" the fart, he said with a smile,

"I remember when I first started learning art with the master, I once asked the master why the noodles for steamed buns need to be made for hair, and the noodles for making ramen are not for hair, and he directly rewarded me with a brain meltdown, and told me, 'There are so many people who have the most problems with you, just do it, what do you ask?' ”

He Chunxiao couldn't help but laugh out loud and said:

"Uncle Ma, it seems that you were quite naughty back then, otherwise your master wouldn't have played your brains!"

Ma Guoqiang also laughed: "Hey! When I was still young, how could I know so much? ”

The two of them chatted casually, and in a short time, they rolled out all 20 dough they made twice.

Seeing that everyone had finished this step, Jiang Yu continued the next steps.

I saw him pick up a dough roll that had been rolled out twice and put it on the eucalyptus board, press it from the middle with his thumb, so that the middle of the dough roll would sink down and the two ends would be slightly warped, and then pile the two upturned ends in the middle, and flatten it with the palm of his hand.

Later, Jiang Yu picked up a rolling pin and rolled the dough into a puff pastry that was thick in the middle and thin around the perimeter.

"It's okay to roll it out a little thinner than the middle, don't overdo it, otherwise, the crust of the wrapped peach blossom cake will be uneven."

He picked up the rolled puff pastry and showed it to Ma Guoqiang and He Chunxiao, and then said,

"After rolling out the puff pastry, you can wrap the filling, and the filling is the same as the previous method of wrapping the puff pastry in the water and oil skin, just pinch it with the tiger's mouth and collect it up."

After finishing speaking, he reached out and picked up a small spoon, dug a small spoonful of peanut peach butter filling from the large basin containing the filling, kneaded it into a small ball, placed it in the middle of the rolled puff pastry, and then put the puff pastry on the tiger's mouth in his right hand and began to slowly close the mouth.

The mille-feuille dough was put back on the eucalyptus board, and Jiang Yu gently pressed it into a flat cake shape with the palm of his hand.

At this point, the cake blank of the peach blossom cake is made.

"It doesn't seem that difficult, so I'll do it too."

Lu Shuwu had never made shortbread before, but he still had a set of soup dumplings, and at this moment, he witnessed the whole process of Jiang Yu making peach blossom cake blanks, and immediately knew what to do.

He ran to the sink to wash his hands, and after drying off two tissues, he pulled a chair and sat down, and began to make peach blossom cakes.

As for Qian Liwei and Jia Zhibin, they are pure red eucalyptus chefs, not to mention shortbread, he doesn't even know how to make noodles, and he can only stand on the side and watch at the moment.

Neither of them stepped forward, and the others could only watch and drool from the sidelines, not to mention, the red peach blossom roll mixed with fragrant crushed peanuts was very tempting to watch.

The speed of the four people working together is naturally not slow, but even so, several people were busy until more than six o'clock in the night before finally making all the peach blossom cakes.

Of course, when it was almost five o'clock to make peach blossom cakes, Jiang Yu also took the time to make a few dishes to be sold in the dinner canteen, although the peach blossom cakes were important, but the students ate dinner was more important, which he naturally would not be unable to distinguish.

However, as soon as the dish was fried, he sat down again and continued to make peach blossom cakes with Ma Guoqiang and others.

After a large pot full of peanuts and peach blossom sauce fillings were made into peach blossom cakes, there was still a little bit of puff pastry left, and Jiang Yu didn't waste it.

However, in order to distinguish it from the peach blossom pastry, the plum cabbage button meat mille-feuille shortbread is not sprinkled with sesame seeds on the top.

"Let's bake two trays out first and taste the taste, if the taste is good, we will take it to the window tomorrow morning and sell it."

After making all the shortbread, Jiang Yu stood up from the chair, let out a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile,

"Let's sell peach blossom shortbread, plum vegetables are meaty, let's keep them for ourselves."

Let's let the students taste the taste of spring! ”
