Chapter 356: Alone Can Support the Back Kitchen (Second Shift)
A bowl of three shrimp noodles in the morning, with the most seasonal delicious dishes, starts a new day for the whole family.
In fact, this can be said to be the real Huaiyang cuisine, or the characteristics of Subang cuisine, eating is the taste of this season, and the taste is this mouthful.
After breakfast, Feng Yifan packed up his things and went into the back kitchen to start today's busyness.
Feng Ruoruo originally wanted to go to the back kitchen to see her father, but was stopped by her grandfather and grandmother, who said that she would take her little granddaughter out for a walk.
"Ruoruo, grandparents will take you out for a walk, okay?"
"It's just that we go out with grandma and grandpa, and when we come back, we can have lunch. ”
Feng Ruoruo heard her grandparents' words, and the little girl fell into a moment of hesitation and entanglement.
In fact, the little girl doesn't want to go out, she wants to stay at home, she wants to watch her father in the back kitchen, she likes to be with her father, and then watch her father work, and she can help a little by the side.
But Grandpa finally came, and he didn't see Grandpa for a week or two, and the little girl also wanted to go out with her grandparents.
So at this time, the little girl is really a little entangled and doesn't know what to do?
In the end, it was her mother Su Ruoxi who said: "In this way, my mother will also accompany you and leave the house to Grandpa Shi, Grandpa and Dad, okay?"
Hearing that her mother was also going, Feng Ruoruo immediately became a little nervous: "Ah, Mom, do you want to go with you? What about the family? Dad, Grandpa, and Grandpa Shi will be too busy." ”
When Shi Jinbin heard the little girl's words, he immediately said, "What's the matter? You still look down on Grandpa Shi? Do you think Grandpa Shi can't take care of your grandpa?"
Feng Ruoruo stepped forward and said, "No, Grandpa Shi, you stay with Grandpa and Dad, you have to be busy in the kitchen again, and you have to look at the restaurant, you will be very busy, it's too hard." ”
Hearing the little girl say "It's too hard" with a serious face, it really warmed the hearts of the old people.
Shi Jinbin couldn't help but say: "Oh, Jinrong, this little girl in your family is really heartwarming, too good at talking, and comfortable to listen to." ”
Su Jinrong smiled and said, "Ruoruo, she has always been very well-behaved and warm-hearted. ”
Grandpa Feng Jiandong continued: "If our family is ruo, we really care about people, and it is not good to make people like it. ”
Lu Cuiling hugged her little granddaughter directly and said, "Grandma's little baby, what you said really warmed grandma's heart, I really don't want to be separated from you." ”
Feng Ruoruo also hugged her grandmother and said, "Grandma, we won't be separated." ”
Feng Yifan came out of the back kitchen at this time, listened to the problems everyone was facing, and said to his daughter with a smile: "It's okay Ruoruo, you and your mother go out with your grandparents to play around, Dad can take care of the restaurant, and he will take care of grandpa, wait for you to come back for lunch, okay?"
Feng Ruoruo looked at his father and asked, "Then Dad, you have to wait for me to come back and pass the menu." ”
Feng Yifan smiled and nodded in agreement: "Okay, Dad will wait for Ruoruo to come back and then start business, waiting for Ruoruo to pass me the menu." ”
After saying this, the little girl finally agreed: "Okay, my mother and I will go out with my grandparents and come back soon." ”
Finally said that Feng Ruoruo was moved, and the family immediately began to prepare, and soon took the little girl out.
Wait until Feng Ruoruo and her mother accompany their grandparents out of the house.
Feng Yifan, his father-in-law and uncle, sat down at a table in the corner of the kitchen near the restaurant, and began to discuss the menu of tomorrow's kitchen competition with Su Lanxin.
Feng Yifan first handed a menu he had drawn up to his father-in-law and his uncle Shi Jinbin to read.
The two old men looked at it carefully together.
Shi Jinbin first asked: "Yifan, are you really sure you want to use this menu?" Most of the dishes on your menu are mainly vegetables, and it is not easy to cook vegetables, especially for children. ”
Feng Yifan nodded seriously: "Yes, I know it's not easy, but I still stick to this menu, I hope that children can eat more healthily." ”
Shi Jinbin still continued: "But you are like this, but it is obviously much more difficult than Chen Wei's things." ”
In Shi Jinbin's view, Chen Wei has brought so many high-end ingredients, which can be regarded as occupying a certain advantage.
You know, whether it's those very good shrimp and sea crabs, or those sea fish, or some meats including foreign ham and beef.
It can be said that on the whole, the grade of the ingredients is very high.
The natural taste of high-end ingredients has actually taken the lead.
If Feng Yifan uses some meat dishes, he can make up for some gaps through seasoning, and may even rely on some domestic cooking techniques to easily surpass the other party's.
But Feng Yifan chose a more difficult path.
He's going to make a vegetarian dish.
The difficulty of making a good taste of the vegetarian dish itself is high, and if you want to make the vegetarian dish for children to like, it may be even more difficult.
So Shi Jinbin was still a little worried, worried that Feng Yifan would make a mistake in the kitchen.
After being silent for a long time, Su Jinrong suddenly spoke: "Well, I believe in Yifan." ”
Shi Jinbin didn't expect that Su Jinrong would choose to believe in his son-in-law, and he was a little surprised that he could believe in his son-in-law so much when he knew that there was a great risk.
However, seeing Su Jinrong's firm gaze, and Feng Yifan's confident smile on his face.
In the end, Shi Jinbin could only nod: "Okay, since Yifan is willing to challenge, then I will definitely help you this time." ”
Feng Yifan said to Shi Jinbin seriously: "Thank you, uncle." ”
Then the three of them worked together to refine the menu again, to determine which dishes were suitable for cooking, and in what way to do them.
Shi Jinbin and Su Jinrong also took out their own experience, and they optimized the menu very accurately.
Feng Yifan also took out a serious attitude of twelve points, and integrated some details, so as to determine the final cooking methods.
After basically finalizing the menu, Shi Jinbin suddenly said: "Well, since it is mainly vegetarian, you can wait for my eldest daughter to come and let her also give you a counselor." ”
Hearing Shi Jinbin mention his eldest daughter, Su Jinrong also immediately asked, "What, the time, it's coming?"
Shi Jinbin turned his head and glanced at the clock on the wall: "Well, it's almost time to get there." ”
Su Jinrong said again: "Let's go, go and pick it up." ”
Shi Jinbin smiled and waved his hand: "No, the first time she came to the place of the master, of course she had to come by herself, the apprenticeship is a big deal, if you can't even find the door, what else to worship?"
When Feng Yifan heard Uncle Shi's words, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Uncle Shi, you are a little harsh with your senior sisters. ”
Shi Jinbin said with a serious face: "This is not strict, when your senior sister comes, you can ask her to know, when she used to learn to cook with me, I put forward a few requirements for her, and she was able to do all of them, so I passed on her, and she suffered a lot." ”
Su Jinrong said to his son-in-law: "You, uncle, are very serious. ”
Feng Yifan smiled and nodded: "It can be seen that Uncle Shi should be very strict in the back kitchen." ”
Shi Jinbin sighed: "Now that I'm older, I don't lose my temper much, if it was in the past, none of those apprentices would not be afraid of me." ”
Feng Yifan suddenly asked at this time: "Dad, uncle, when grandpa passed on you, was grandpa strict?"
Su Jinrong and Shi Jinbin glanced at each other, and the two brothers recalled the past again.
After recalling for a moment, Shi Jinbin opened his mouth and said: "Back then, you and Ruoxi's grandfather were actually very good-tempered people, he rarely got angry, but he was a very strict person.
In the back kitchen, if Fan makes even a little mistake, he will criticize us very seriously, but he never gets angry, nor does he scold us with his head and face, he just doesn't listen to explain to us over and over again.
Sometimes, he even repeats it to us many times. ”
I listened to my father-in-law and uncle talk about learning to cook back then.
Feng Yifan found out for the first time that his grandfather was really serious back then, although he was strict, he would not scold his apprentice, nor would he easily get angry.
But from the words of his father-in-law and uncle, Feng Yifan still heard that the harshness of his grandfather when he taught was terrifying.
It's like because he made a mistake, so that the master and uncle actually cut the pier for three days in a row, which is really boring.
There are also apprentices who will make mistakes, fry the dishes for a day in a row, and then eat them themselves if they are not qualified.
How many dishes do you have to eat on this day?
The most ruthless should be to let the apprentice not be allowed to go to the stove for a month.
As a cook, you are not allowed to cook in the back kitchen for a month, which is simply a bit torture.
The purpose is only so that the apprentice who made a mistake can remember the mistake he made and is not allowed to make it again next time.
Speaking of the apprenticeship back then, Su Jinrong and Shi Jinbin, the two brothers, are also very nostalgic, although it was hard at that time, there will always be a lot of interesting things.
After the two old men chatted for a while, the breakfast next door was almost over, and Lin Ruifeng also came over to help clean the restaurant.
Feng Yifan pushed his father-in-law, and went to the back kitchen with his uncle to start preparing ingredients.
There will still be a lot of preparation tasks this morning.
Because it is not only necessary to prepare some ingredients for today, but also for tomorrow's kitchen, it is destined to be a very busy day.
Entering the back kitchen, Su Jinrong sat in a wheelchair to supervise and give some advice.
Feng Yifan is mainly busy alone, and Shi Jinbin will also help with some small work.
Watching Feng Yifan's smooth movements, Shi Jinbin couldn't help but give Su Jinrong a thumbs up again.
This is to tell Su Jinrong that Feng Yifan is really a very good cook.
Tomorrow's dish will be mainly vegetarian, but because it is a vegetarian dish, you will need to prepare a lot of soup in advance.
Some soups need to be cooked very carefully, and they also need to be hung to ensure that the soup is clear.
After all, soup is something that adds flavor to vegetarian dishes during the cooking process, so you can't let too many impurities in the soup affect the taste of vegetarian dishes.
While boiling the soup, Feng Yifan will also prepare some ingredients in advance, and some meat with vegetarian dishes will also be processed.
Of course, this also includes the processing of ingredients needed for Su Kee's noon and evening business today.
For example, some ingredients need to be soaked in advance, some ingredients need to be pre-processed in advance, and some ingredients need to be cooked in advance to ensure softness.
The work in the back kitchen is really busy.
Maybe only when you really go into the back kitchen will you understand why Su Ji doesn't make breakfast?
The main reason is that there is a shortage of manpower, and in order to ensure quality, the process of preparation in advance is essential.
Feng Yifan was walking back and forth on the stove and the board, and the things in his hands were also very fast, and every ingredient would be processed quickly.
Even those that need to be cleaned, such as fish need to be slaughtered and cleaned, shrimp need to be cut in advance, and meat needs to be sliced in advance.
Feng Yifan arranged this series of processes in an orderly manner, and it can be said that the time was really arranged very properly.
In the eyes of Su Jinrong and Shi Jinbin, the two bystanders, and those who are unusually clean in the kitchen.
Feng Yifan arranged all the time very reasonably, there were almost no superfluous movements, everything was so smooth, and it was even a little like mechanization.
This is the ability to do so accurately with absolute confidence in the craft and a thorough understanding of each step.
Of course, there is another key point, that is, Feng Yifan is young enough now.
There are many steps and actions, Su Jinrong and Shi Jinbin actually know it in their hearts, but if the two old men do it, because they are old, there is no way to complete it very well in terms of actions.
Arriving at the back, when Feng Yifan glanced at the noon time that was getting closer and closer, he began to speed up.
Even Shi Jinbin couldn't keep up with the rhythm, so he could only watch from the sidelines.
Looking at Feng Yifan's movements alone, Shi Jinbin couldn't help but say to Su Jinrong: "Jinrong, your son-in-law is really too powerful, have you seen it? ”
Su Jinrong nodded.
He could naturally see it, and before Shi Jinbin came, he vaguely seemed to see his father from his son-in-law more than once.
The original father and now the son-in-law really have that master's demeanor.
When Feng Yifan was busy in the back kitchen, his daughter Feng Ruoruo and her mother accompanied her grandparents out of the old street.
Today they went out from the east side together, and then crossed the road outside the east exit of the old street together, and came to a rebuilt urban area across the road.
It used to be a neighborhood near Lao Cai, but now the community has been demolished and rebuilt, and towering buildings have risen from the ground.
Standing outside the community, Lu Cuiling looked up at the high-rise buildings in the community, and suddenly said to her daughter-in-law: "Ruoxi, you might as well buy a house here, and then you don't have to live upstairs in a restaurant, which is more convenient." ”
When Su Ruoxi heard her mother-in-law's words, she was a little strange: "Mom, we live well, why do we want to buy a house here?"
Lu Cuiling continued: "Think about it, if you grow up slowly, you have to go to primary school, I heard that there is a good supporting primary school in this community." ”
Hearing her mother-in-law say this, Su Ruoxi suddenly understood her mother-in-law's intentions.
Lu Cuiling is thinking about her little granddaughter's school in the future.
