Even Brookside's décor is more suitable for autumn.

When I came in from the back door, I saw the inside of the store, and after more than half a year of operation, the tables and chairs were not so new, and there were traces of use. The storage space at the bar is filled with cups and coffee beans that he and Yoyo have scooped everywhere, and the greenery in the shop has grown a lot.

Lang Yangyang was obsessed with it, and he didn't know if others could understand it.

When I first bought them, they were raised in batches, but the green plants that were not so energetic are now luxuriant.

One of the sofa booths in the corner is even covered by an oversized flower candle leaf, where customers often take cute photos of them pretending to be hats.

Lang Yangyang took a deep breath, took off his windbreaker and hung it up, and turned on the music in the stereo's random playlist.

As usual, I prepared the nut bread and croissant that are currently fixed in the store, put them in the oven, and then took out the dough that I had prepared yesterday.

Put all the ingredients you need in the cooking machine, including dough, blanching, gluten flour, eggs and pumpkin puree, and stir until the glove film is in a state of glove film.

Lang Yangyang took out the stirred dough.

At this time, the dough is very soft, Lang Yangyang kneaded while adding flour to adjust the firmness, and then it fermented for another hour.

In this hour, Lang Yang Yang prepared pumpkin puree.

Yesterday's pumpkin was cut by Zhuang Shuo, and today I peeled it myself to know that the skin of this variety of pumpkin is so hard.

You can't usually use a knife to cut fruits, so you can only use a larger knife to control the thickness yourself.

When the dough has risen, the dough is then topped with pumpkin puree, rolled out into shape, put into molds, and sent to the oven.

"150°C top, 195°C bottom...... 25 minutes. Lang Yangyang muttered as he set the temperature and time.

Before he could stretch his waist, someone pushed open the back door, and Lang Yangyang knew that it was Xiaoying who came.

Only he and Xiaoying love to go through the back door.

Because as soon as you enter the back door, there is the baking room.

"Early." Lang greeted with a smile.

Xiaoying wore a mask and smiled and waved hello.

After getting acquainted with working in the store, Xiaoying began to commute to and from work at her normal time, from 8 to 5.

Most of the dessert production has been handed over to her, and Lang Yangyang is much more relaxed.

Lang Yangyang is not a person who talks a lot, especially when he is working, he needs to put 100% concentration into his work.

From this point of view, Xiaoying is his most perfect work partner.

The bread had already been sent to the oven, Xiaoying was making a mossy pound cake, and Lang Yangyang was staring at the pumpkin pudding that had just been made.

What does it taste......

"How?" Yoyo leaned over to the roastery window, cup of coffee in hand.

Lang Yangyang brought her a spoon, "You try." ”

You take a bite, it is soft and tender, and you can eat the pumpkin inside.

"How?" Lang Yangyang didn't have any expectations.

Yoyo also told the truth: "That's it...... Ordinary pudding with pumpkin, even when you take a bite, it feels like pumpkin spoils the taste of the pudding a little. ”

Lang Yangyang propped up on the countertop with one hand, took another bite, and said, "I feel that the vegetable flavor is too strong." ”

It's true that pumpkin pudding isn't anything special.

But I still haven't given up on making desserts with pumpkin.

Soon the bread is baked, the shelves that should be put on the shelves, and the pumpkin toast is divided into a share, and the first thing to try.

The bread had not yet been divided, and Zhuang Shuo came over with time.

Five people sat down around the table, and Lang Yangyang cut the bread and distributed it to the plate in front of everyone.

Lang Yangyang drank coffee with Youyou and Huang Yun, Zhuang Shuo drank milk, and Xiaoying drank juice.

Lang Yangyang sat down: "Eat." ”

Huang Yun: "It's so yellow......"

"Huh?" Lang Yangyang reacted for a moment, then smiled and said, "The pumpkin is yellow." ”

Zhuang Shuo was the first to eat, and his evaluation was as simple and crude as ever: "It's delicious!" ”

"It's so fluffy, it's almost the fluffiest toast I've ever tasted."

"The pumpkin is not obtrusive at all in the toast."

The toast is still hot, and the rich aroma of pumpkin blends well with the aroma of bread, they are both rich, unprominent aromas, and the pumpkin with moisture makes the toast even softer.

"Good autumn, like a maple leaf."

This is written on the note that Xiaoying handed to Lang Yangyang.

She had already finished her share and put on her mask.

Lang Yangyang also likes it.

Zhuang Shuo was already eating the second piece and asked Lang Yangyang if he still had it.

"Yes, I'll get it." Lang Yangyang smiled and got up.

Zhuang Shuo said that he would go by himself, but Lang Yangyang had already gotten up, and it inexplicably became a situation where two big men went together with one toast.

The three girls looked at each other a few times, covered their mouths and snickered.

Lang Yangyang roasted a total of eight, a lot of them, but he didn't plan to sell them in the store today, he wanted Zhuang Shuo to take them to the farm and give them to the employees to eat.

"Abel, they have grown pumpkins all their lives, and they didn't know that pumpkins could be made into bread and were so delicious. They must be happy. Zhuang Shuo watched Lang Yangyang pack bread.

Originally, I just wanted the employees to try whether the toast was delicious, but when Zhuang Shuo said this, Lang Yangyang suddenly became a little emotional.

He rarely showed this side of himself, but the eyes that looked at Zhuang Shuo at the moment also showed this nakedly.

"Really." Zhuang Shuo reaffirmed, "I have been growing grain, vegetables, cattle and sheep all my life, but I don't know that wheat can be made into so many things, and these raw materials have been transformed into delicious food in your hands, which makes people dare not imagine that they were once just a piece of wheat in the soil." ”

After speaking, Zhuang Shuo suddenly felt a little emotional, and sighed in a low voice: "And they may not spend money to walk into such a dessert shop in their lives." ”

Lang Yangyang lowered his eyes slightly, and then raised his eyes to look at Zhuang Shuo, pursing his lips and smiling.

After thinking about it, I don't know what to say, neither he nor Zhuang Shuo have much lofty dreams, nor do they have much ability.

But at this moment, Lang Yangyang can say: "In the future, if I make delicious bread and desserts, I will give them to Aunt Uncle to taste." ”

Zhuang Shuo: "We all thank you. ”

Lang Yangyang: "I know. You take these to the farm, and I'll take this to my second aunt and parents today. ”

"Yes, I'll have dinner at my second aunt's house tonight." Zhuang Shuo then remembered.

Lang Yangyang and Zhuang Shuo now strictly abide by the rule that they must go home for one meal a week.

– unless the elders are not at home.

Brookside seems to be more suitable for autumn, and even though the summer vacation travel boom has passed, Brookside's business is even better than summer.

Fortunately, Xiaoying is now on the job, although busy, but busy in an orderly manner.

Zhuang Xiaoyu has resigned and went to Chen Jiazhai and his "chef" Zhou Yuan to learn how to cook, and quarrel with the "grumpy queen" Chen Jingyun.

A few days ago, Huang Yun brought her classmates to the store for an interview for a part-time job, Lang Yangyang thought it was very good, and the two began to change jobs.

Huang Yun is a junior at a nearby junior college, and Youyou intends to train her to learn how to make coffee.

"It's much better than going out to work, and now undergraduates are running all over the place and can't find a job, and it's even harder for junior college." Yoyo said.

After speaking, he thought of Lang Yangyang's academic qualifications, "Brother Yangyang, a high-achieving student like you who graduated from the double first-class should not have this kind of trouble, and I don't know how difficult it is for ordinary college students to find a job now." ”

Lang Yangyang nodded, "Hmm...... But I know a little bit about it. ”

Yoyo: "Huh? ”

Lang Yangyang recalled the past and said: "When the recruitment season was busy, the company also got me a recruitment account, and I remember that at that time, I hung up a junior graphic designer position, and I received more than 100 resumes in less than a day. ”

"Cruel......" sighed.

The two sat on broken chairs on the balcony and sighed with the autumn breeze.

While chatting, there were customers in the store, and Lang Yangyang was about to go back to the baking room to think about what kind of dessert the pumpkin could be made.

When they came back from the balcony together, they saw that it was an old customer in the store, and Lang Yangyang greeted her.

"Hello owner! Do you still have taro mud towel rolls today? The customer asked.

Lang Yangyang saw that there was still a younger sister standing next to her, thinking that it should be the sister who loves taro paste very much and is in high school during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holidays.

"Yes, do you want a whole one?"

The customer laughed: "It's good to have two pieces, let's eat in the store today, eat a few more, by the way, is there still lotus seed ice cream?" ”

After speaking, let my sister look at the menu and pick something else.

Lang Yangyang: "Yes." ”

Lang Yangyang personally made ice cream, picked two very delicate plates for desserts, and served them after Fei Fei finished the coffee.

"Wow, that's beautiful." The younger sister sighed and looked at her sister with admiration.

My sister was still carrying her computer bag and said, "I didn't lie to you." ”

Lang Yangyang smiled and put a bag of icing cookies on the table: "This is made by the new pastry chef in our shop, please taste it." ”

"Ahhhh It's so exquisite! ”

"I don't want to bite it at all!"

Xiaoying happened to be helping Huang Yun close the table next door, and when she heard the customer's reaction, she was so excited that she could only take a deep breath to calm down.

Lang Yangyang is also happy, it's so good, this store is really good.

In the afternoon, he continued to peel the pumpkin, and Lang Yangyang wanted to make another dessert with pumpkin elements and put it on the shelves together with the pumpkin toast as an "autumn limited".

I was busy in the baking room all afternoon, checking information and writing recipes, and I didn't find it when it got dark.

It wasn't until Xiaoying came over to say hello before getting off work that Lang Yangyang realized that it was almost six o'clock.

Lang Yangyang said goodbye to Xiaoying, and when he looked back, the sink at the door of the baking room was full of pumpkin skins.
