Chapter 169 Senior Brother, You Are Such a Scumbag! Want Me to Make Dinner? Then Steam More Rice! 【Ask for Monthly Ticket】

Following Qiu Zhenhua's cold shout, the chefs who were busy around them immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at the two uninvited guests at the kitchen door quietly.

Lin Xu was shocked.

I go!

Are you ready to take action?

Then should I help them hold down the senior brother later? It will be easier to fight this way.

"Zhenhua, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you so angry?"

Xie Baomin walked over with a smile, not paying attention to the looks of the chefs at all. Instead, he bumped Qiu Zhenhua, who looked elegant in gold-rimmed glasses, with his shoulder:

"How have you considered what I discussed with you?"

"Don't fight with me, don't even think about it. Although our Building 6 can't compete with you in the cooking competition, don't underestimate others!"

Qiu Zhenhua pushed Xie Baomin impatiently and waved to the chefs around him:

"It's all about your business."

These chefs continued to be busy.

Lin Xu looked around. Although the chefs who prepared the dishes had prepared various ingredients, they obviously had more manpower for the pasta.

The dough mixer, the dough kneader, the stuffing chopper, etc., everyone is very busy.

As expected of a Jiangsu cuisine cook, there are many kinds of noodles.

But what does senior brother mean by coming here?

Just to see Chef Qiu’s face?

"Zhenhua, let me introduce to you, my junior brother Lin Xu has recently come to work in Building 2."

Qiu Zhenhua glanced at Lin Xu and then said:

"I know that on the day of the competition, your master pretended to sell his personal information and defrauded my uncle of a thousand dollars."

Lin Xu:? ? ? ? ? ?

Xie Baomin:? ? ? ? ?

The two brothers looked at each other.

There was no surprise on his face.

Because this is really Master's style.

Xie Baomin originally wanted to talk about his junior brother, but since the master relied on his junior brother to defraud Mr. Qiu of a thousand yuan, he should not mention his junior brother first, lest others get emotional.

He whispered:

"Zhenhua, what a great suggestion I have. Let's exchange talents. You send a few pastry chefs to Building 2, and we send a few cooking masters to Building 6. If we join forces like this, we can't kill them all. "

As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Zhenhua said coldly:

"Xie Baomin, don't think you can look down on our chefs in Building 6 just because you beat me a few times in cooking competitions. When it comes to cooking, we are not weaker than any other building!"

"Okay, okay, you're not weak, it's just us who are stronger."

"you……"

Lin Xu felt that it was surprising that his senior brother was not beaten in Diaoyutai due to his speaking style.

During the previous competition, he felt that Guo Weidong in Building 10 was quite flamboyant and high-profile, but he didn't expect that his senior brother was not a bad person. His ability to attract hatred was definitely among the top three in Diaoyutai.

But after listening for a while, he more or less understood the conflict between the two.

Senior brother Xie Baomin felt that although Building 2 was invincible in cooking, it was a bit weak in pasta, while Building 6 was strong in pasta but not good at cooking, so he wanted to swap the chefs on both sides.

Make up for each other's shortcomings.

In this way, guests in Building 2 can enjoy delicious crab roe buns, while guests in Building 6 can also taste richer and more delicious dishes.

This is a good thing.

But Qiu Zhenhua felt that his senior brother looked down upon their cooking skills in Building 6.

So the matter has never been discussed.

Of course, this is also my fault. During the middle-aged competition, he eliminated Qiu Zhenhua in the semi-finals several times.

It's weird for people to have a good face.

Seeing Qiu Zhenhua's stiff attitude, Xie Baomin couldn't help but sigh:

"Then do you think this is a good idea? Let's communicate with each other on the two floors."

"We have nothing to communicate with. The chef in your pastry department can't even compare to the Hutong aunt. Will the communication be of any benefit to us?"

Talking about the strengths of Building Six.

Qiu Zhenhua finally felt proud.

However, he did not expect that he would fall into Xie Yincoin's trap.

"Huh? You don't look down on the noodles in our Building 2, do you? You have Qiu Qiu, how about we compete?"

Qiu Zhenhua smiled softly:

"How can you compare your pastry skills? Let's make thirty-two pleats on the soup dumplings first."

Tsk…

At this moment, Lin Xu finally understood the reason why his senior brother brought him here.

This is just to show off and slap you in the face.

really.

Xie Baomin pointed to the rolled bun skin not far away and said to Lin Xu:

"Junior brother, make him a soup dumpling and see. What's so mysterious about noodles? If I hadn't thought that steaming steamed buns was worthless and didn't learn Bai An, what would you be doing in Building 6 now?"

He had a smile on his face.

After laying the groundwork for so long, it’s finally time to close the net.

Qiu Zhenhua glanced at Lin Xu in surprise.

He knew that Lin Xu was good at cooking, otherwise he would not have won the cooking competition championship.

But white cases and red cases have been developing in two directions since ancient times.

It makes no sense that if the red case is good, the white case will be better.

But since Xie Baomin said it, Master Lin should still have two brushes.

He pointed to the rolled dough not far away and said:

"Please give me some advice from Master Lin."

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"I'm here to learn from Chef Qiu."

He washed his hands first, then walked to the chopping board, picked up a piece of rolled dough and held it in his hands, then dug some crab roe filling into it with a flat-head shovel.

After the filling was filled, he pinched the edge of the bun wrapper and kneaded it skillfully and deftly.

Each pleat is even and even, as if measured with a ruler.

When the bun skin is completely pinched, the number of pleats has reached exactly thirty-two. Each one has the same width and length, and patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder say it is very comfortable.

In this way, a round, plump and well-proportioned crab roe soup dumpling is ready.

Lin Xu put the buns on the chopping board and stepped aside.

Well, since senior brother wants to show off to himself, then just cooperate with him.

Qiu Zhenhua came over and looked down at the crab roe buns made by Lin Xu seriously:

"It seems that I have underestimated Master Lin. His craftsmanship is truly unparalleled. It is better than the masters we have contracted for several years."

Xie Baomin immediately came over and said with a smile:

"But it's not as good as you. Your skills in this area are the best. Qiu Qiu, let's work together. How about we make crab roe buns once in two days and you go try them. What do you think?" "

"Okay, I'll go take a look then."

Qiu Zhenhua didn't expect Lin Xu's craftsmanship to be so good, so he couldn't help but become curious about his craftsmanship. He wanted to try someone who could wrap crab roe buns like this and how the filling tasted like.

It's okay if you just know how to do it.

But if the stuffing is good, then you really have to cooperate with Building No. 2.

Otherwise, if they start selling crab roe buns later, then they will suffer even more losses.

After achieving his goal, Xie Baomin immediately said goodbye and left.

Because if he didn't leave, he was worried that Qiu Zhenhua would ask for the thousand yuan for Mr. Qiu.

After the two brothers left Building 6.

Lin Xu asked curiously:

"Can we serve crab roe buns in Building 2?"

I heard Wei Qian say that the dishes in each building are not allowed to be swapped, otherwise the dishes in the restaurants in the eighteen buildings will be exactly the same and lose their own characteristics.

Xie Baomin said with a smile:

"No, but you can work around it. For example, if a table spends over 20,000 yuan, you will get a surprise. The surprise can be crab roe soup dumplings or roasted suckling pig."

After the economic reform, in order to increase turnover, each building is thinking of its own methods.

For example, Building No. 10 often serves dishes that are not on the menu to attract customers.

Other buildings also have similar operations.

etc……

Roast suckling pig?

Could it be that senior brother not only wants to cooperate with Building No. 6, but also plans to have something to do with Building No. 10?

Sure enough, after leaving Building 6, Xie Baomin did not go back to Building 2. Instead, he strolled to Building 10, where bananas and other southern plants were planted.

Tsk tsk!

As expected of a disciple trained by his master, he is indeed a scumbag.

"Dongdong, I'm here to see you!"

Xie Baomin came to the kitchen of Building 10 with ease. As soon as he entered, he met Guo Weidong who was walking out with a cup of tea.

Guo Weidong glared at him impatiently:

"Go, go, call me that again and I'll fall out with you."

But Xie Baomin still said shamelessly:

"Look, why are you still angry? I want to make a deal with you."

"Can I say no?"

Guo Weidong was not very interested.

And his intuition told him that this guy was showing off his hospitality for nothing, so he must be either a traitor or a thief.

"Listen to me, I want to learn how to make roast suckling pig here. Can you or your head chef teach me?"

Guo Weidong:? ? ? ? ?

This is our signature Cantonese cuisine. What else can we sell after teaching you?

He refused without even thinking.

Lin Xu also felt that he would only agree to his senior brother after being kicked in the head.

There is absolutely no reason for this.

However, Xie Baomin's next words made Guo Weidong change his mind.

"I'll exchange it for my master's original clear water hibiscus!"

Lin Xu was a little confused.

Don't know what kind of dish this is.

But Guo Weidong was a little surprised, and the tea in his hand spilled out:

"Really? Are you really willing to spread the word about Qingshui Hibiscus?"

"What's the point of not giving up? It's all for work..."

Guo Weidong looked Xie Baomin up and down, and after confirming that he was not joking, he nodded and said:

"Okay, I promise you!"

After the matter was settled, Xie Baomin returned to his playful smile:

"Then let's go, Dongdong. I'll come and have tea with you when I have time."

Leave Building 10.

Lin Xu finally couldn't contain his curiosity:

"Senior brother, what kind of dish is water hibiscus? Why is Chef Guo even willing to give you the roasted suckling pig? Is this dish very good?"

Xie Baomin said as he walked:

"Clear water hibiscus is master's improvement based on hibiscus chicken slices. It is said that this dish was created to please our first master's wife... Since he is wandering outside, I will teach you when I have time, but I won't let you know if you can learn it. I can guarantee it, because this dish is much more difficult than white jade lotus root."

Yeah?

I am not satisfied with the perfect meal study card!

Fortunately, I didn't use that study card on the day I made Zaozhuang Spicy Chicken, otherwise I would have been blinded by this.

It’s exciting to think about a dish that’s more difficult than white jade lotus root!

The two returned to Building 2.

It's almost noon now.

There were several order orders for today's lunch dishes posted in front of Lin Xu's stove, and it was finally time to get started.

But before getting busy, he went to the stove not far away to chat with Qin Wei for a while.

If you want to poach someone, you have to try to win them over from time to time.

In this way, when you go back to dig at the base of the wall, it will collapse as soon as you dig it.

While chatting.

Lunch started.

Today’s lunch was cooked by Chang Cheng Jianshe, the chef in the hot stir-fry area.

They are stir-fried river prawns, fried diced pork with soy sauce, lettuce with oyster sauce and minced pork yuba, as well as pork ribs and radish soup.

There are four dishes and one soup, including meat and vegetables, and the combination is very reasonable.

Lin Xu saw Qin Weisheng ordering food and eating in the corner. He originally wanted to go, but Cheng Jianshe said:

"Master Lin, several of the chefs who helped you in your shop praised your cooking skills. How about you cook dinner? What do you think?"

Shall I do it?

Lin Xuzheng was worried about finding something to do for himself in the afternoon to pass the time.

Upon hearing this, he immediately said:

"Okay, no problem. Just steam more rice. Don't eat enough."

Cheng Jianshe was happy when he heard:

"Master Lin is quite confident, but the chefs and waiters here have eaten all the good dishes. The appetite is basically constant, so you just have to prepare the dishes."

"OK."

Lin Xu sat down and thought about what to cook for dinner while eating.

Let’s start with the braised pork. When I went to the cold storage yesterday, I saw that the quality of the chilled pork belly was really high. It would be a pity not to make braised pork.

Braised pork has a sweet and salty taste, which some people may not like.

He thought for a while and decided to order another dish of boiled fish.

Well, I have long disliked those fat grass carp in the aquatic area.

However, boiled fish is not 100% popular. After all, it is watery and urinary, and it is easy to drip red oil and vegetable soup everywhere when eating.

Then let’s have another dish of stir-fried green beans.

When making it, mix in some minced meat and it should be very fragrant.

And it’s not soupy or watery, so it’s more refreshing.

There are three dishes here, and they all contain some meat, so let’s just have boiled cabbage as the last dish. This will lower the cost and avoid overcooking the food in one meal.

As for the soup.

Naturally, it’s the veteran actor’s seaweed and egg drop soup.

Not only does it taste great, but the cost is also low, so there is no reason not to choose it.

After considering four dishes and one soup, Lin Xu continued to eat.

Cheng Jianshe's bean curd is quite good. It should be fried in warm oil and soaked in warm water. It tastes soft and tender but not mushy. When paired with minced meat, it is really delicious and goes well with rice.

After eating a few mouthfuls, he saw Qin Wei still sitting in the corner eating alone, so he put some vegetables into the bowl and went over to chat with him while carrying the bowl.

After lunch.

Customers started to show up in the restaurant.

The kitchen has become busy.

But for Lin Ji Gourmet's chef, this kind of busyness is simply more leisurely than a vacation. Lin Xu didn't even break a sweat, and the afternoon rush hour was over.

After the midday period passed.

Lin Xu went to the front desk to see Dundun and brought him some steamed beef tenderloin.

My son came here to work at a young age, so naturally I had to feed him something good.

After getting a new toy, the relationship between father and son has been restored. When seeing Lin Xu, Dundun even took the initiative to reach out his huge head and rub Lin Xu's hand.

However, two sneaky eyes were aimed directly at the beef tenderloin on the disposable plate.

Apparently, the little guy smelled the aroma of meat.

Put the plate on the counter.

Dundun immediately came up to it, stuck out its plump little butt, and started eating with big mouthfuls.

"Boss Lin, everyone who ordered today praised your cooking skills. They couldn't find a photo with you, so they all hugged Dundun and took photos, and then they left with satisfaction."

Yeah?

Lin Xu raised his hand and rubbed Dundun's head.

This kid has really sacrificed so much for his family.

But at this moment, Dundun only lowered his head to eat the meat. This kind of intimate behavior was very disturbing for him to eat the meat, so he shook his head in disgust, moved forward with his head on the plate, and ate to the side.

Lin Xu: "..."

Can't we have a tacit understanding in front of outsiders?

Lin Xu watched Dundun for a while, and when the little guy finished eating the meat, Lin Xu noticed that Shu Yun was secretly eating snacks.

"Didn't you just finish lunch? Are you not full?"

"I'm allergic to shrimp and don't like to eat yuba, so I ate a little bit of rice with lettuce."

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"Don't eat too much. I'll let you try my craft this afternoon."

Shu Yun's eyes suddenly lit up:

"Are you cooking this afternoon, Boss Lin? Oh, that's great. I watch your videos every day and I've long been greedy for your cooking. I want to eat more this afternoon."

After playing with Dundun for a while.

Lin Xu returned to the kitchen and started preparing dinner.

He took several kilograms of pork belly from the cold storage and immediately roasted the skin.

After a busy period of processing, the meat was stewed in a casserole.

Then I made some chili peppers to use when cooking boiled fish.

Half past four in the afternoon.

Dinner in the Diaoyutai kitchen started.

When the employees came to the small restaurant where they were eating, they were stunned when they saw the dishes on the table.

Braised pork, boiled fish, stir-fried green beans, boiled cabbage hearts, and seaweed and egg drop soup that exudes rich umami... Isn't today's dinner too rich?

Start eating, start eating!

Everyone picked up their bowls and filled themselves with a large bowl of rice. Then they eagerly sat down and started eating.

"Well, this braised pork is cooked perfectly, fragrant but not greasy."

"This boiled fish is so delicious, smooth and tender. The key is that it doesn't have Sichuan peppercorns. It's so satisfying."

"Wow, this stir-fried green beans is so fragrant and delicious when stir-fried with minced meat."

"The boiled cabbage heart is really cooked. It feels better than the one in Building 10."

"Master Lin's craftsmanship is truly unparalleled."

"I originally had a big bowl and thought it was enough, but it seems I will need another bowl of rice later."

"Me too. I'll have another bowl later. This dish is too good for rice."

"..."

Everyone was chatting away while eating.

Full of admiration for Lin Xu's craftsmanship.

No wonder I won the championship, and no wonder the store I opened is so prosperous.

This craftsmanship is really amazing.

After they tasted it, they couldn't even choose which dish was the best, because all the dishes were so delicious, even the humble seaweed and egg drop soup was delicious.

While eating.

After finishing his work, Cheng Jianshe came to the small restaurant to eat. He casually glanced at the dishes on the table and thought, oh, Master Lin's skills are quite extensive.

There are four dishes in four ways, including fish and meat, both meat and vegetables.

awesome!

He sighed in his heart that he would be a terrible person. He picked up the bowl and was about to put the rice in it, but he found that the steaming plate where the rice was originally placed was now clean.

what's the situation?

Where is the rice?

So where did the freshman steamed rice go?

Restaurant front desk.

Shu Yun was holding a large bowl of rice and enjoying the food he had brought.

Put a piece of braised pork covered in thick soup on the rice, crush it lightly with chopsticks, then mix it with the rice, and eat it with the rice and meat.

Oh my god!

Isn’t this too delicious?

While we were eating, several customers who had made dinner reservations came early.

Shu Yun quickly put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands and greeted them:

"Hello Mr. Jin, the table No. 9 you reserved is by the window. You can enjoy the summer scenery outside while dining."

With that said, she was going to take a few customers to their seats.

However, these people did not move, but sniffed and asked:

"What dish is so fragrant? Braised pork?"

Just as they were talking, they saw the dishes on the counter, the trembling red meat pieces, which made people greedy just looking at them.

Mr. Jin is also a regular customer.

He looked at Shu Yun and asked curiously:

"Manager Shu, have you served braised pork?"

Shu Yun shook his head:

"No, this is our staff meal."

"Hey! Your staff meals are so sumptuous..."

Mr. Jin reluctantly looked at the braised pork in front of him, and suddenly felt that the dishes he had ordered before were no longer tasty.

He thought for a while and asked:

"Manager Shu, can you sell me a portion of this braised pork?"

I can't sell employee meals... Shu Yun muttered in his heart. Just as he was about to refuse, he heard Mr. Jin say:

"I'll give you two thousand!"

Shu Yun immediately swallowed his rejection:

"no problem!"
