Chapter Twenty-Three: If you are too modest, you are showing off...
In the kitchen.
Aunt Lin and Aunt Li were responsible for cleaning and preparing the ingredients, so they came over early.
By the time Huang Jun put on his chef uniform, put on a mask, and entered the operation room after disinfection, the two of them were already busy inside.
"Aunt Lin, Aunt Li, good morning..."
"Chef Huang, you're here..."
"Good morning, Chef Huang..."
When Aunt Lin heard his greeting, they both raised their heads and responded with a smile.
At the end, I didn't forget to greet the lovely sisters Chi Chi and Wei Wei, and when I learned that Huang Jun had sent the two little ones to the classroom, I couldn't help but ask with concern: "Aren't the two sisters crying?" ”
It's no wonder that they ask this, mainly because they can vaguely hear the crying of children entering the kindergarten when they stay in the kitchen, which is even more obvious at this time, so they are afraid that the two sisters Chi Chi and Wei Wei will be affected and cry when they see other children crying.
In fact, their concerns are justified.
Many children in the small class were just comforted by the teacher in the front, and as soon as the other little crying bags came over, they were immediately taken to cry again.
Fortunately, there are not many such cases in the primary (4) class.
The children who were prone to crying before had always remembered Huang Jun's agreement, and whenever they wanted to cry, they would remember that agreement, and then their eyes were red, holding back their hearts so that they would not cry.
Straight to the point.
Huang Jun took out the maltose from the cabinet and said with a smile: "I didn't cry, I'm all obedient!" ”
"That's good, that's good, I'll just say that Chi Chi and Wei Wei are so well-behaved, they will definitely not cry."
Hearing this, Aunt Lin and Aunt Li both put their minds at ease, and immediately showed an expression of "not strange": "In fact, the beginning of school is like this, especially when new students enter the kindergarten, and the children will get used to it much better in a few days." ”
Seeing Huang Jun come to an induction cooker, put a small pot on the induction cooker.
Then I saw him pour small pieces of maltose into the pot.
Aunt Li and Aunt Lin, who didn't know the truth, couldn't help but ask curiously when they saw his series of operations: "Chef Huang, what are you going to do?" ”
Huang Jun said truthfully: "Make some candy figures for the children." ”
"Huh?"
Aunt Lin and Aunt Li's eyes couldn't help but widen, and their mouths were wide open, enough to stuff an egg, and then their words were full of disbelief: "Chef Huang, you can still be a sugar man?" ”
In their minds, the sugar man looks fun, but it's actually a technical job.
It is also a folk art.
The difficulty coefficient can be imagined!
Huang Jun nodded: "Well, I can do candy blowers, candy painters and candy pinchers, but my skills are not very good, so it shouldn't be a problem to coax children." ”
"That's pretty good, too!"
After listening to his honest words, Aunt Lin and Aunt Li were no longer surprised, and they both felt that he really knew how to do it, and at the same time, they also looked forward to his candy man skills.
"Chef Huang, are you going to pinch the candy man or draw the candy man this time?"
"Draw the Candy Man."
Huang Jun thinks that it can be used to eat, and it is better to draw a candy man.
These words can't help but remind Aunt Lin and Aunt Li of when they were in elementary school, and these candy people were indispensable in the small stalls selling snacks around the school.
A small stool, a small table, a small stove, a sugar spoon, a stereotype, and a turntable are all the "belongings" of the candy master's candy stall.
At that time, whenever there was a "candy man" at school or at the door of the house, it would be surrounded by friends.
Cheap candy men have also become a favorite snack for children.
But now.
With more and more snack choices for children, such as chocolates, cakes, nuts and other high-end snacks, sugar people are no longer just an item to coax children. The Candy Man is also gradually forgotten, and it is difficult to find it in the streets and alleys of the city.
In the eyes of today's children, "sugar man" is already an unfamiliar term...
Hey, how embarrassing...
Just when Aunt Lin and the others were feeling sorry, the hard maltose cubes in the small pot quickly began to melt under the cooking of low heat.
The freshly melted syrup has a yellowish hue, but with time, the syrup gradually turns dark red.
Huang Jun turned the heat to the minimum.
The temperature of this syrup, after being controlled to a certain extent, there is no need to care about it anymore.
And then there's the most important thing!
He pulls one out of a bunch of washed new bamboo skewers and gently places it on a non-stick cutting board.
Then, he picked up a small spoon and scooped a spoonful of syrup in the pot.
Considering that both precious girls love rabbits.
So...
He decided to start by drawing rabbits.
Although this is the first time he has used sugar syrup to make a candy man, thanks to the system's bonus, everything is carried out in an orderly manner and there is no rush.
When Aunt Li and Aunt Lin saw his posture, they guessed, "Chef Huang, are you going to start painting?" ”
"Yes."
After hearing the affirmative answer, Aunt Lin and Aunt Li couldn't help but come over to watch, but the work in their hands did not stop.
Then, I saw his hand holding the spoon dancing quickly on the non-stick cutting board.
At this moment, the golden syrup seems to have come to life, turning into strands of silk threads, dotted and crisscrossed on the non-stick cutting board.
It's just under two minutes.
A cute little golden rabbit came to life on the non-stick cutting board, and it was also in their eyes.
Aunt Lin and Aunt Li were so fascinated that they even forgot the work in their hands.
"It's too similar!! Look at this little rabbit, how realistic and cute it is...... Those kids are going to love it. ”
"Yes, it's amazing, Chef Huang, you can make a stall with this skill......"
Hearing these praises, Huang Jun smiled and said modestly: "It's over, it's okay......"
Yellow Kitchen, Yellow Kitchen......
Is this still called "passable"?
Do you have any misunderstanding of the words "okay"?
Your skills are comparable to those sugar masters!
It's good to be humble, but if you're too modest, you're showing off...
Huang Jun will pick up the bamboo skewers on the table, and when the warm wind blows, the syrup will quickly solidify, and the little rabbit with the bamboo skewers will not fall apart.
Then, he continued to draw the rabbit again, and asked as he painted, "Aunt Lin, Aunt Li, what pattern do you like?" I'll make one for both of you later. ”
"We have that too??"
Aunt Lin and Aunt Li both pointed to themselves in disbelief.
Huang Jun smiled: "It's not a hard thing to be a sugar man, let's say, what pattern do you want?" ”
Aunt Li was very moved and said, "Then can I want a butterfly?" ”
Finally, he asked with some concern, "Isn't this difficult?" ”
"It's not difficult!"
Huang Jun shook his head, raised his eyes and looked at Aunt Lin and said, "What about you, Aunt Lin?" ”
"I just want a cat!"
"Okay, no question, wait a minute!"
Huang Jun smiled slightly, and then steadily placed the spoon containing the syrup on the non-stick cutting board. He quickly depicts it with syrup with syrup centered on bamboo sticks.
Only five minutes later, a butterfly with fluttering wings and a cute kitten were vividly presented in front of Aunt Lin and Aunt Li.
Aunt Lin's eyes flashed with surprise that could not be concealed.
"Wow, it's really butterflies and cats! This form is so realistic, it's like it's alive......"
"Chef Huang, I thought you were just cooking deliciously, but I didn't expect you to even draw candy people so well, I have to say, your craftsmanship is really ...... How do you come up with that word? ”
"Absolutely!"
"Yes, this craft is really amazing......"
Aunt Lin felt the beauty of the sugar man, and she really didn't expect Huang Jun to paint so well with sugar syrup.
However, more surprises are yet to come.
