Chapter 594 The Program Was Successfully Launched, It’s Time to Visit Mr. Qiu’s House! 【Ask for Monthly Ticket】
"There are rumors in the world that Lin Kee's staff meals are the most delicious and will be sold to customers only when the employees are tired of eating them. As a principled store tour host, today we will see how Lin Kee's staff meals taste."
Xie Baomin tasted the braised mutton with skin and vermicelli first, then nodded and said:
"Mutton with skin is generally eaten in the South. This way of eating can best reflect the fresh aroma of the mutton and the softness of the sheepskin. The quality of the mutton is very good, the fragrance is full, and the vermicelli is also very tasty. It is a delicious dish. Let’s make dinner, just make this dish, I should be able to eat two bowls of rice today.”
Although the staff meal seemed very casual, when he began to taste it, Xie Baomin still evaluated it with the professionalism of a state banquet chef.
After tasting the mutton, he tasted the chicken feathers.
"This season's chicken-feathered vegetables are basically a little more expensive than meat. I kind of believe the rumors. One day I will be fired from Diaoyutai, so I will come to my junior brother's place to work on an errand. It's worth coming just for such tender chicken-feathered vegetables." work."
Chicken feathers used to be wild vegetables, but now, like shepherd's purse, they have been artificially domesticated and can be planted in large areas.
But in early spring, the price of chicken feathers grown in greenhouses is still very high.
Such a tender dish is fried with lard and minced garlic, and then sprinkled with some minced garlic. The taste is fragrant and fresh, and the fragrance of garlic makes this dish very outstanding.
Even if it's just a simple vegetarian dish, it's still a great meal.
After tasting these, Xie Baomin served himself a bowl of chicken porridge:
"Chicken porridge and tendons, this is a dish that you may not be able to eat even if you spend money. The staff meal is so sumptuous. Do you want to hint me to come to work? I don't know if I can apply for the position of head chef at my level... This taste It’s pretty good, I’ll take a few bites first before commenting.”
He held a small bowl and gave a general explanation of how to make chicken porridge, and then commented on Qin Wei's craftsmanship:
"The chicken porridge was stirred too fast when it was put into the pot, causing the chicken porridge to be a little broken. Normally, it is like rice grains, but these broken pieces are almost as big as millet, but the taste is good and delicious."
When these dishes were served, Xiao Jia just felt that today's dinner was in order.
But after listening to Xie Baomin's explanation, I couldn't help but become greedy, and at the same time I was also very confused.
Are these dishes so rare?
I heard that in other restaurants, the staff meals are all kinds of scraps.
But when we arrived at Lin Kee, the situation was reversed.
If you do this, won’t you lose money?
While Xie Baomin was eating chicken porridge, Xiao Jia asked this question.
"Employees eat well, are in a happy mood, and are naturally motivated to work. This is actually the normal development model of enterprises. However, in order to save money, many catering companies do the opposite, and as a result, the turnover is getting lower and lower. .”
The purpose of catering is to sell food and drink. If the employees can't eat or drink well, then who will have the motivation?
After Xie Baomin tasted the employee meal in the store, he scooped himself a small bowl of snake soup:
"This is snake soup made by my junior brother for extra meals. I will try it according to the standards of a state banquet to see if there are any shortcomings."
Xiao Jia said:
"You won't brag in a different way again, will you? Be careful of customers complaining that we have been recharged."
Xie Baomin smiled:
"We don't need to recharge the reputation of this store. Instead, we have to recharge in reverse... I have many fans and customers of Lin Ji on this account."
After saying that, he took a spoonful of snake soup into his mouth, tasted it carefully and said:
"The taste of the snake soup is quite good, the meat is smooth, the chicken, ham and other ingredients are just right, and there is nothing to say about the seasoning..."
Just when everyone thought Lao Xie was going to praise someone, he changed the subject:
"However, this snake meat is too long. If it is shortened to twelve centimeters or ten centimeters, it will be better to eat. Chicken breasts also have this problem. The amount of lard is a bit too much, although both chicken breasts and snake meat need to be used. Lard is used for cooking and frying, but not too much, otherwise it will be too greasy and will lose points.”
Lin Xu, who was listening carefully on the side, sighed softly in his heart:
In the eyes of experts, excellent-level techniques are still not very interesting.
While thinking about it with righteous thoughts, a system prompt suddenly came from my mind:
"The host has listened to the teachings of the state banquet master, and the excellent Cantonese soup [Snake Soup] has been upgraded to the excellent level. Congratulations to the host."
Oh haha!
It actually triggered this kind of reward, which is not bad.
Without spending a penny, the excellent dishes became excellent. This kind of good thing is simply exciting.
Xie Baomin finally tasted the snake skin he mixed and said with a smile:
"I won't mention this anymore, there's nothing to comment on."
Xiao Jia didn't go to the kitchen just now, so she didn't know what was going on:
"Why, Teacher Xie, can't you make this dish?"
Xie Baomin smiled:
"It's not that it's not bad, it's just that I made this dish. You can praise me, but it's not appropriate. If you want to find faults, there's nothing to find fault with, so I'll just skip it."
After finishing speaking, he said to the camera:
"To sum it up, today the two of us didn't spend a penny and had the Lin Ji Gourmet staff meal that was widely circulated on the Internet. Not to mention, it was really more enjoyable than some high-end restaurants where the average person has one or two thousand... Forget it, I plan to write a cover letter and apply for a job as a chef at Linji..."
After the recording ended, Shen Jiayue and others sat down hurriedly:
"Senior brother said that I swallowed hard. I will have to eat more rice later."
After eating a bunch of sweets for lunch, she finally finished digesting them. This girl couldn't wait to eat some normal meals, and the dishes on the table met her requirements.
Lin Xu filled a large bowl of rice and handed it to Shen Jiayue, and then filled a bowl for himself.
He sat down and tried the lamb with skin braised in vermicelli. It was indeed delicious.
Especially those vermicelli noodles, which soak up the soup of the mutton stew, taste fragrant and fresh, and have a smooth and chewy texture. One bite makes people want to take a big mouthful of rice.
As for the mutton, it is also delicious. The skin is soft and pliable, and the chew is enjoyable and delicious.
In addition, some dried chili peppers are put in when stewing, which makes it spicy and appetizing. Then scoop some soup and mix it with the rice, take a big mouthful with a spoon, and eat it hot and spicy, which is called a comfort.
Needless to say, mutton stewed with skin is indeed delicious.
However, not many people eat this way in the north. Most of the mutton in the north is skinless mutton. Regardless of the Northeast, North China or the Northwest, it is basically skinless mutton that is fried, stewed, roasted or rinsed, and is basically not eaten with the skin on.
In the past, sheepskin had a strong ability to keep out the cold and was strong and durable. It could be made into cotton-padded jackets or leather goods. The sheepskin rafts sewn into it could even be passed down for three generations.
It would be too luxurious to eat it like this.
Eating this delicious mutton, Lin Xu said:
"You can try this lamb with skin in the store for a while to see how satisfied the customers are."
Senior brother has already helped advertise, and the southern cuisine in the capital is notoriously sparse, so the southern-style lamb with skin may be a winner among a group of mutton-boiled, stir-fried, roasted lamb dishes. .
Xie Baomin said:
"You can definitely try it. The powder skin will be replaced with the skin dregs from your hometown. The skin dregs are more resistant to stewing. You can make a big pot and put it there, but this powder skin will not work. It will melt away after stewing for a long time. It will increase costs.”
"Okay, let's study it later."
Lin Xu tried the chicken-feather dish again, and it was indeed quite delicious.
While he was eating rice, Chen Yan, who had previously disliked snake meat the most, took a small bowl and used a spoon to serve herself a bowl of snake soup.
The milky white soup made people appetizing at first glance. She took a spoonful and put it into her mouth, and immediately exclaimed:
"Wow, this snake soup tastes great, especially the snake meat inside. It feels a bit like eating noodles. It's delicious!"
Although snakes make people physically uncomfortable, this snake soup is still very good.
I will have to eat another bowl later, because the next time I will eat it may be when, but I can enjoy it now, so I have to enjoy it as much as possible.
It's a pity that Ren Jie got off work at ten o'clock at the earliest today, otherwise he would have been allowed to taste this delicious snake soup.
When everyone was having dinner, the video of yesterday's visit to the store appeared in Lin Xu's personal news. The company had already finished editing the video in the morning. After watching it, Lin Xu chose to update it regularly.
Now, it’s finally updated.
As soon as the video started, netizens were surprised.
"I'll go, right? Boss Lin also wants to visit the store?"
"This line of work is too complicated, isn't it? In the past, the head chef of Diaoyutai Hotel visited the restaurant, and later the manager of Yanjing Hotel visited the restaurant. Now, even the catering directors of Diaoyutai and Yanjing Hotel have started to visit?"
"Give those chefs in small restaurants a way to survive. Their cooking is just unpalatable. How can they be so virtuous that you guys keep making trouble for them?"
"Let me see which unlucky one is the first one."
"Nani? Dental clinic?"
Soon, netizens discovered that this was not a store visit video at all, but an advertisement.
But it’s not annoying to make an advertisement like this.
"Boss Lin's cousin can tell at a glance that he has medical skills."
"How can I see it?"
"With such severe baldness, this must be a medical student."
"Damn it, I just realized that all the seniors in our medical school have this hairstyle."
"This is the hairstyle of a strong man. It's a pity that I'm not in the capital. Otherwise, I would have to go to cousin Wenshan to get his teeth cleaned and have a comprehensive oral examination."
"Me too, I keep watching those teeth cleaning videos recently, which makes me want to have them cleaned too."
"Damn it, it turns out there are people with similar interests. I thought I was the only one who liked watching teeth cleaning videos. I even almost suspected that I had a psychological problem."
"Calm down, I watch all of them including car washing, carpet washing, pedicure, facial shaving, donkey hoof trimming, pimple popping, blackhead popping, acne popping, ear removal, beeswaxing, cell phone cleaning, and I also like to watch it while eating."
"My dear friend, hold your claws!"
"..."
Netizens directly discussed various obsessive-compulsive disorder videos in the comment area of the video. Shi Wenshan, who had just cleaned the teeth of a patient and was resting with his cell phone, saw these comments and watched the teeth cleaning videos online.
Although I have been going through this all day long, let alone watching the unappetizing dental calculus being shaken off by the ultrasound, I really feel an inexplicable sense of relief.
Since this kind of video is popular and can also popularize the prevention and treatment of oral diseases, then prepare to shoot it.
He thought for a while and sent a message to Hao Qingfeng, talking about filming a teeth cleaning video.
In the store, Lin Xu finished the delicious dinner and said to Che Zai:
"Contact Boss Huang and ask him to start delivering mutton with skin to the store recently. The quality of the meat should be better to avoid customers not liking it."
Since you want to serve mutton with skin on, you have to control the quality.
Next time I’ll try the method of braised mutton with skin on the skin. If it works, follow this recipe. As long as the portion is right, you shouldn’t have to worry about no one ordering this kind of meal.
In fact, whenever a new dish appears on the ordering tablet, customers will order one to try it, regardless of how it tastes.
After all, this is a good opportunity to try something new and you can’t miss it.
After giving these instructions, Lin Xugang was about to go back to the kitchen and start working. Zeng Xiaoqi came upstairs. As soon as she came out of the stairwell, she shouted to everyone:
"Hahahaha, I have good news for you. The "State Banquet" project has been approved!"
To shoot this kind of subject, CCTV not only approved it, but also gave the program team the green light. All the materials on the state banquet in the Archives Bureau can be read, and the video materials can also be borrowed.
However, the content of the video material needs to be in-depth. After all, state banquets have been attended by leaders over the years, and often involve the political trends at that time, so the TV station must check it.
In addition to materials, the program director of the documentary channel will join the program team and be responsible for the program team's external relations.
The so-called external relations refer to dealing with other departments and units.
Having the channel director do this himself will definitely save the program team a lot of worry.
Other aspects, such as the share of investment, the share of copyright, etc., are all very satisfactory to this party, and even a little unexpected.
"Baby Yan, you have to go to CCTV to sign a contract tomorrow. Then I will sort out the program in detail based on the information from the Archives Bureau. First, I will draw up a shooting plan. Once approved by the leaders, we will officially start work."
What is approved now is regarded as the program project, and the content will be reviewed twice. After all, how many episodes will be shot, how long each episode will be, and what content will be focused on, all must be listed in detail.
Only after the documentary channel has reviewed and confirmed that it is correct can the filming officially start.
During this process, the issue of investment promotion will also be discussed.
This kind of delicacies usually find some well-known cookware manufacturers, seasoning manufacturers or food manufacturers. Although advertising can be inserted, it should not be too obvious, nor should it be a low-end small brand.
Chen Yan did not expect it to go so smoothly. He smiled and said:
"Okay, let's go together tomorrow... Brother-in-law, are you going? Although the CCTV building has been criticized by many people as having big pants, it is still quite impressive."
Lin Xu shook his head:
"Now that it has been approved, I have to go to Mr. Qiu and ask him to agree to appear on the scene. Only if he agrees will other master chefs agree."
We need to find twenty master chefs, and they are also master chefs for state banquets.
This task is still quite difficult, so you have to start as soon as possible.
And I have been making some home-cooked dishes recently, so it’s time to learn one or two more high-end Huaiyang dishes from Mr. Qiu, and maybe I can introduce new products in the store.
Chen Yan looked at Shen Jiayue and asked:
"Yueyue, are you going?"
"Tomorrow I have to take Dundun to make jade carvings. There is still the last part left, so I can't miss it."
"Okay then, let me and Xiao Qiqi go."
Shen Jiayue is an investor and shareholder of Happy Media, and Lin Xu also has a small stake. Chen Yan invited the two of them to CCTV to get the shareholders to go together.
Xie Baomin had eaten and drank enough and was about to take Xiao Jia outside to shoot the opening scene. When he heard that Lin Xu was going to find Qiu Yaozu, he said:
"Don't go too late tomorrow morning. I heard that Mr. He is also going to visit his house. If you try to fool around with me then, I'll make some money if I teach you a few dishes."
Lin Xu thought that his senior brother was going too, but he didn't expect that Mr. He was also there.
That's just right. They were invited at the same time, and there was no need to go back and find Mr. He to get him to join the group.
Well, Lin Xu felt that he was like a hero in Liangshan now, and he urgently needed to earn money to go up the mountain.
After returning home in the evening, Shen Jiayue came to the kitchen, patted the hard black bread and asked:
"Xubao, this bread is so hard. Will Dad feel uncomfortable eating it?"
Lin Xu knew what she meant when she said this:
"Do you want to try it?"
"I don't really think about it, I just want to know what it smells like..."
Lin Xu felt that this piece of bread would have to be opened sooner or later, so he took out a slender bread knife from the cupboard and carefully cut a centimeter-thick slice of bread from one side of the bread.
However, this piece is cut almost close to the crust of the bread, which is relatively hard.
Shen Jiayue pinched it and tasted it. After only one bite, her cheeks were sore from chewing, but the taste was not bad. The flavor of the dough was mixed with a trace of bitterness and a trace of sourness. In addition, there was also the unique taste of sucrose and nuts from brown sugar. .
Lin Xu cut two more slices. The bread inside was a little softer, and at least it didn't cost as much time to eat. Moreover, you could feel the aroma of the bread when you tasted it carefully.
In terms of taste alone, it's not bad.
This should be paired with a vegetable salad, and the fat reduction effect should be very good.
In particular, eating too much black bread can make your cheeks unbearable. It will definitely help Lao Shen quickly burn off the fat accumulated during the Chinese New Year.
"I think it's good. Let's take it to dad tomorrow. He will definitely be very moved."
Lin Xu picked up a piece and chewed it slowly. He came to the living room, turned on the TV, then clicked on the client of the network set-top box and found "The Bear" from the history.
"Stop, you stinky bear!"
As soon as Bald Qiang's voice came from the TV, Dundun, who was playing on the balcony, ran over, jumped on the sofa, pushed the pillow down, lay on it, and started watching TV.
"If there were pets watching the competition on TV, our Dundun would definitely come in first place."
Lin Xu rubbed the little guy's head and prepared to go upstairs to change clothes.
Shen Jiayue said with a smile:
"We, Dundun, are too lazy to participate in that kind of boring competition. We'll waste too much time watching TV... By the way, Xu Bao, can you go to Chef Qiu's house tomorrow and learn a snack?"
be careful?
Lin Xu, who reached the stairs, turned around, looked at Shen Jiayue and asked:
"What kind of snack do you want to eat? I will learn how to make it for you tomorrow."
"Thousand-layer oil cake! It is said that it is a dim sum as famous as Huaiyang cuisine and Jade Shaomai. It is known as the two unique dishes in Yangzhou. Can you learn from it?"
Lin Xu nodded:
"no problem!"
