Chapter Twenty-Eight: Pulling the City into the Water
Looking at the entanglement of the city's face, it feels very interesting, the facial features and eyebrows on the round face are squeezed together, full of joy.
As a former chef, Yao Yuan has brought all kinds of apprentices, and through these two days of observation, he found that Man Cheng has a particularly rare potential.
Honest and honest Mancheng, not afraid of dirty work, spare no effort, can endure the key to the key and willing to use the brain, after exercising, it will definitely be a good material in the kitchen, with such a helper to work, it makes people happy.
And Mancheng himself once said that the small county town at home is very poor, and there are not a few rains on the desolate loess plateau all year round, and people, livestock, and crops all live on the little rain that God gives them, and even the drought-tolerant old elm trees are half-dead, not to mention those squeamish crops.
Life is not easy for people on this loess plateau.
I finally had the opportunity to come out as a soldier and fly out of that poor mountain nest, which can be regarded as a source of interest and an eye-opener, and now after being discharged from the army, I can't go back to my hometown after saying that I can't go back to my hometown.
Not only does the city have to find a livelihood outside, but also have to take out the parents at home, so that the old people who have suffered all their lives can live a few days.
Therefore, the city is trying to find the relationship between comrades-in-arms, hoping to stay in Pingcheng and enter the canteen of the Foreign Languages Bureau, even if he can be a helper in the kitchen of a state unit, he can be regarded as serving an iron rice bowl in the system.
Even if you can't be a helper, even if you go to the production base to raise pigs, that's the first step.
But in the past two days, following Yao Yuan out to set up a stall, the door to a new world suddenly opened, which made Mancheng's original ideals shaken a little.
The feeling of being free and unrestrained in setting up a stall on the street was something he had never felt in his years of disciplined forces.
There is no need to stand in a military posture, no one cares about appearance, what you want to say, what you want to do, there are no more leaders and subordinates, let alone late arrivals and early departures.
The traffic on the road, the diners and buyers who walk like the marquee, buy and sell at will, let the city experience a real feeling of being alive, that feeling is called freedom.
There is also the fact that as long as there is a little craftsmanship in the big city, it seems to be quite easy to make money, and it feels like a trick, as long as there is a braised meat stall, there are people lining up to give money.
When he was in the army, the allowance was more than 10 yuan a month, and if he could enter the state unit, his monthly salary would be hundreds of yuan, which was already the annual income of a peasant family in his hometown.
But last night at the night market, the income that night was already several hundred, and this number gave him an even greater shock.
With money, you can survive in this Pingcheng of Nuoda, and you can take the old people in your family to live a good life for a few days.
It's a pity that I don't have such a craft!
Yesterday, he watched the operation process of braised pork very carefully, although the experience of the past few years is only limited to miscellaneous work in the kitchen, but some of the most basic operations can also be seen clearly, and he found that the production process of those fragrant cooked foods is not so complicated.
That is, the process is a little cumbersome, but it is not too difficult to learn, and Yao Yuan's explanation is very detailed in the operation process, such as pig's trotters, pig's tail, etc., why do you have to use an open flame to burn it again; For example, why all raw materials have to be used in cold water.
The most difficult thing to make braised pork is to grasp the taste, and the seasoning package in the braised broth should be the key to it, which is probably Master Yao's secret weapon.
This kind of seasoning package is a secret in the hands of every master in the kitchen, which is a trick used by the chef to settle down in the kitchen.
Now that Yao Yuan suddenly proposed to hand over the stall to him, Man Cheng couldn't help but think a little too much in an instant, and when he thought about it carefully, the entanglement was all on his face.
Is this pie in the sky?
Can there be such a good thing?
Man Cheng hesitated for a long time before muttering in a low voice: "But I won't either?" ”
"It doesn't matter, I'll teach you?" Yao Yuan observed Mancheng's expression and smiled.
Being caught walking around the police station today was somewhat stimulated, and Yao Yuan suddenly felt a little dissatisfied with what he was doing now.
I set up a braised meat stall in order to make money, and now I have a braised meat stall with a hot head, which is a bit cumbersome.
Didn't you say you wanted to enjoy life?
But the catering industry is diligent, and since it is diligent, it is definitely not good to do it if you don't devote yourself wholeheartedly.
The pot of stew itself has already cut corners when processing, but fortunately, people's tastes are not so tricky at this time, and there are no competitors at all, as long as the quality of the product is above the level line, it can be sold.
Yesterday's braised pork and bacon also saved a lot of processes, although the taste is quite acceptable, but Yao Yuan himself knows that if this stall wants to work for a long time, he must take it seriously, and he is not allowed to steal and play tricks.
Not to mention anything else, good braised pork pays attention to a pot of old soup, and it is not easy to maintain this pot of old soup just by yourself in your current situation.
Each ingredient needs to be treated separately, the spices and seasonings used are different, the braised chicken and braised elbow must emphasize the taste of kaempfera and angelica, and the water and the like need heavy five flavors, these can not be fooled casually, if you want to open this braised pork stall for a long time, you must take it seriously.
But after all, I am still a student, once the school starts, where will I get so much energy to serve these heads and hooves?
After all, I have spent so much thought, I have seen the market, and I have found cheap ingredients, and through on-the-spot sales, it has been proved that this road will definitely work, and it would be a pity if it was abandoned.
Whether it's a braised meat stall or a braised meat stall, you have to ask someone to help.
So Yao Yuan thought about it and wanted to hand over the whole braised meat stall to Mancheng.
In the future, Man Cheng will be responsible for the work, and he will give some technical guidance by the side, and everyone will be able to earn money easily.
Gradually, the surprise on Mancheng's face could not be concealed a little: "I, can I do it?" ”
"Okay? You get rid of the 'what' word! Mancheng, let's just make a braised pork, you do it like yesterday, I guarantee you won't learn it in ten days! ”
After that, Yao Yuan took out a note from his pocket, and the note was densely filled with various spices and ratios: "This is the seasoning ratio of braised soup, the order is large this afternoon, and the material package needs to be remade, you go to the market with me after eating, let's find these spices first." ”
"Sichuan pepper, big spice, angelica, nutmeg, cumin, sand kernels, ginger, ......"
Looking at the more than 20 kinds of seasonings and ratios listed on the note, Man Cheng was a little overjoyed, and at the same time a little confused.
That's the secret ingredient, right? This inconspicuous note has a detailed description of the portion ratio of various spices, with this secret recipe, we can!
In an instant, Man Cheng threw his plan to kill the swineherd behind him, looking at the note full of words, his eyes were full of little stars.
Yao Yuan casually took out a note and handed it to Man Cheng, but he didn't notice that another note was taken out of his pocket and dropped on the table.
Xiaohua'er was quick to move, and grabbed the note that fell on the table: "No, brother, why do you feel that you have been a little different from before recently?" How can you still make braised pork? ”
As he spoke, he opened the note casually, and then was stunned for a moment, his eyebrows stood up suddenly, and he slapped the note on the table and was furious: "The fine from the police station?!" A fine of five dollars for a fight and brawl?! Yao Yuan'er! Tell me what this fine is all about?! ”
