Food starts with noodles
Page 64
But seeing Xu Zhuo rolling the noodles so quickly and smoothly, the old man's mood is very complicated.
I am proud of my grandson's level, but also a little disappointed because I didn't teach it by myself.
Where did this kid learn how to roll noodles? This technique is too professional, right?
Are you studying online again?
When the old man was distracted, Xu Zhuo had already rolled the dough into dough pieces.
He folded the dough evenly, turned his face to the old man and asked, "Do you want to cut it?"
The old man nodded: "Cut it, I'll have this for dinner later."
Boss Xu brought a kitchen knife and cut directly.
The speed is very fast, and the spacing of each knife is like measuring with a ruler.
Now, the apprentices watching Xu Zhuo's eyes completely changed.
If Xu Zhuo knew how to roll noodles, they were still a little unconvinced. After all, there was a lot of work in the restaurant, and it was impossible to roll noodles all the time.
But the knife skills that Xu Zhuo showed now really made them feel ashamed.
Doesn't he dislike cooking in the noodle restaurant in his hometown?
Is this level like someone who lives on his own and doesn't like cooking?
It's like two years of hard training in closed doors, isn't it!
When cooking, no matter Master Xu or Master Xu, they all like to use Xu Zhuo's stupidity to teach apprentices.
As a result, now they see stupid people whose ears are callused.
Several apprentices suddenly became somewhat autistic.
If this level is stupid, then what are they?
After cutting the noodles, Xu Zhuo put away the rolling pin and the kitchen knife, and stood on the side in an orderly manner, feeling a little disappointed in his heart.
Ugh!
In such a perfect pretentious scene, no one jumped out to question it.
Forcibly reducing the coolness by more than half.
Those novels that pretend to be face-to-face are indeed deceiving.
The old man stepped forward, reached out and shook the noodles on the cutting board, and began to educate the apprentices.
"Do you understand? Pay more attention, don't just think about becoming a chef all day long. The foundation is not solid, even if I teach you famous dishes now, you can't do it!"
"Remember the steps that Xu Zhuo said just now. Rolling noodles is not complicated, but it can't make do. Only when every step is done properly, the noodles will be perfect in the end."
After lecturing them, the old man led Wei Junming and Xu Zhuo out of the kitchen.
This is the peak season in the store, and the back kitchen is very busy and not a place for chatting.
The old man brought the two of them to a small private room on the third floor.
This private room is not open to the public and is mainly used for entertaining relatives and friends.
The layout of Xu's restaurant is very reasonable.
The first floor is the lobby, mainly for individual customers who come to eat noodles.
The second floor is a deck, which is aimed at urban white-collar workers and young couples who like to be quiet.
Above the third floor are private rooms of different sizes, ranging from small tables for eight people to electric round tables for 30 people.
When I came to the private room, a waiter brought jasmine tea.
The old man took a sip to moisten his throat, took out his mobile phone and called the old lady.
"Xiao Zhuo is here, you ask the nanny to drive you to the restaurant, let's have dinner together tonight."
The sound of mahjong crashing came from the phone, which made Xu Zhuo yearn for it.
The old lady plays mahjong and raises cats, living a very comfortable life.
Boss Xu, who is naturally lazy, is particularly envious.
After hanging up the phone, the old man fiddled with the phone a few times, then handed it to Xu Zhuo.
"Correct this answer and help me figure it out."
Xu Zhuo didn't react at all.
Correct answer?
After taking the phone, he realized that it was actually the answer page of station B.
what's the situation?
The old man actually started to get in touch with Two-dimensional?
"I have watched all the videos you have here, and watched them many times."
"If I didn't see that you rolled the noodles well, would I make you look ugly in front of them?"
"The video was shot very well. Although some parts seem a bit amateurish, the knife skills and hand-rolled noodles are really good."
"I was thinking about posting a comment to praise you, but it turned out that I was not a member, so I asked me to correct my answer and find the young people in the store. They couldn't understand these weird questions..."
Chapter 077 The Nature of Food
Boss Xu was very moved.
I really didn't expect that the old man would go to Station B to pay attention to him.
And not only pay attention, but also answer questions to become a full member, send bullet screens and comments to yourself.
It's just...
His Bilibili account was created by Yu Keke, and he really didn't know that there was a saying that the answer was corrected.
But Boss Xu has been at Station B for so many days.
He knows everything about posting bullet screens, and even knows some black and white words.
Isn't it a Two-dimensional related topic.
It's drizzling!
He opened the first question nonchalantly. After reading the question, he looked at the four answers ABCD.
Emmmmmm…
Is it that complicated?
He has already regarded himself as a member of Two-dimensional.
As a result, one question knocked him back to his original form.
The old man saw Boss Xu's embarrassment, and asked curiously: "What? Even you don't know it?"
Boss Xu would naturally not admit it: "No, the title has been changed. When I opened a membership before, it wasn't such a trouble."
He saw that there was an option to use the invitation code to bypass the answer below, and he suddenly became energetic.
Holding the phone, he sent a WeChat message to Yu Keke.
"Find me an invitation code for station B, with a red envelope."
In the end, after waiting for several minutes, the girl didn't return.
Only then did he realize that Yu Keke should pick up Yu Peiyong at the high-speed rail station now, and he probably doesn't have time to look at his phone.
After looking through the address book, Xu Zhuo found Zhou Wen.
This big beauty hangs around B station all the year round, so she should also have an invitation code.
So I sent Zhou Wen a message.
"Beautiful beauty, help the world, hurry up and find me an invitation code for station B, there is a red envelope!"
Soon, Zhou Wen sent the invitation code.
By the way, a message was sent.
"The red envelope is free. What are you cooking in the store tonight? I don't have anything to do tonight. I want to have dinner."
Since the last time I ate fish in the store, Zhou Wen would go for a meal when she had nothing to do.
Of course, it's not in vain.
Every time I go to Cengfan, I will advertise to Boss Xu at station B.
As a result, many people at station B have heard of the name Sifangguan.
But tonight, her meal plan is doomed to fail.
Because Boss Xu is eating in the provincial capital right now.
After explaining the reason to Zhou Wen, Xu Zhuo took the old man's mobile phone and entered the invitation code, and the old man finally became a full member.
Opening a video at random, Xu Zhuo tried to send a scrolling barrage on the video.
It was really successful.
But it doesn't seem to be able to comment yet.
Boss Xu helped the old man bind his mobile phone number and email address, and also did real-name authentication.
Only then did he return the phone to him: "Okay, you can post barrage, but you can't post comments yet, you can wait until after the second level."
The old man turned on the phone and looked at it, then stuffed the phone into his pocket.
Wei Junming was reporting Xu Zhuo's basic knife skills practice to him at the moment, and the old man listened very carefully.
Hearing that Xu Zhuo was good at sliced fish, the old man gave Xu Zhuo a surprised look.
"It seems that you have worked hard recently, Xiao Zhuo, don't you hate this job now?"
Xu Zhuo nodded: "Actually, I have never disliked it, but if you want to say how much you are interested in it, I really don't. I just regard this line of work as a way of earning a living."
"However, I don't feel any of the inheritance, culture, and art. The only feeling is that it's really tiring to have too many guests."
The old man took a sip of tea, and smiled at Wei Junming.
"Xiao Zhuo, the things you said about inheriting culture and art are all those boring literati who have figured it out on their own. It's okay to scare outsiders, but we can't take it seriously."
"When you enter this industry, you must throw away the symbols on the surface and pursue the essence of food. What is the essence of food? It is delicious!"
"All the selection of materials, knife skills, techniques, heat, seasoning, and presentation are all for this purpose. If it's not delicious, no matter how artistic or cultural you are, it's nonsense!"
"In addition, chefs have to treat cooking as a business. Only in this way can you consider the feelings of customers and start from the perspective of customers."
"If you are really interested and obsessed, that's not good, because you will become very stubborn, you won't listen to any opinions, and you will take your pursuit for granted on customers."
"For example, those so-called gourmets spend their days thinking about innovation and blindly chasing new dishes. The food they make is said to be bad after eating, and they blame them for not knowing how to appreciate and taste."
"So, don't think of yourself as a gourmet, at least when you can't let others praise your cooking against your will, you have to be your cook honestly."
The old man's phone call made Xu Zhuo feel enlightened.
In the past, he always felt that those cultural arts were boasted by chefs, which made him a little disgusted.
But I also understand that it is all for publicity.
A few years ago, when the old man was interviewed by reporters, he also talked about culture and art in various ways, and he talked about the allusions and inheritance of each dish.
Now that the old man said this, Xu Zhuo finally understood.
All good food is just delicious.
Because it is delicious, some people will add some cultural and artistic things to it.
But it is definitely not because of these additional culture and art that this dish is delicious.
"Ding, the host listened to the master's teachings, realized the true meaning of food, and rewarded special skills - dish matching, congratulations to the host."
