Hitchhiker

When Cao Maoxue rushed over, Ma Xiang had already followed Huaqing's instructions and ordered people to leave.Not to mention, he himself is the second chef here, and he has been doing it for several years, and now he speaks with such dignity.Some people heard him repeat Hua Qing's words, and they took action seriously, cleaning up the messy back kitchen without much effort.Just the broken dishes and dishes filled a big bag full.

Hua Qing felt a little headache.

The work in the kitchen does not look complicated, but it is a waste of time if you study it carefully. Moreover, there are several ingredients on the plate broken by Feng Yuan today that are ordered according to the order quantity. The materials were destroyed, and it was difficult to hold Buddha's feet temporarily.

Cao Maoxue's face was ugly.Since he started to learn cooking, although he has encountered some big and small accidents every year, this is the first time that such a serious one has happened. Fortunately, this evening is just an ordinary table reservation, otherwise he would not even find a place to cry.But that's it, the trouble is still not small.Bear the brunt, besides the ingredients, there are people!

This is a big problem!

Although the division of labor in the kitchen can improve efficiency, it doesn't mean that one cook and two cooks on the stove can't use the spare time to help change knives and do chores, but this will reduce two people at once, unless he can find someone to top the tank immediately. Otherwise, a few days of chaos is expected.

It's useless to say more, even if he is extremely upset now, he has to roll up his sleeves to help with work, otherwise, if the skylight is really opened for tonight's order, it will be enough for him to drink a pot.

Cao Maoxue's calm approach stabilized the impetuous atmosphere in the back kitchen to a large extent, and everyone unconsciously accelerated their movements.

Seeing all this in his eyes, Hua Qing secretly gave Cao Maoxue a thumbs up for his calmness. As a chef, he should have the courage to stay calm in the face of danger, as if it is the magic needle for everyone.

"Do you need me to do something?" Hua Qing asked Cao Maoxue in a low voice while taking advantage of the gap between handing things over.

help?

Because of Hua Qing's words, Cao Maoxue paused for a moment before returning to his previous regular movements.He doesn't know how capable Hua Qing is, but judging from the corner of his current road, he shouldn't be too bad.But if he was allowed to go up in this way, there would inevitably be more voices of disapproval from the people below.

"If you're sure, go over there and put up the missing stove first." After thinking about it for a while, Cao Maoxue still wanted to take a gamble.A person who can be recognized by his master with only one meal early, I believe his ability is definitely not limited to what everyone sees now, "If you don't mind, something just happened on the stove."

Like other industries, the cooks in the kitchen are also very taboo to the stove that has had an accident. Many cooks will ask the above to replace some things before they are willing to use them again.Therefore, after Cao Maoxue pointed out the place to Huaqing, he regretted it a little.I don't know if Huaqing will think too much.

"No problem." Although Huaqing has experience in the kitchen, compared with those who have experienced a lot of things, he still has less understanding of the small and medium details of the industry, so he naturally didn't take Cao Maoxue's face lightly. But the embarrassment of the past was taken to heart, and he only thought that he was worried about his lack of ability. This is something he can't control now, just wait and see the strength to speak.

Huaqing's hands and feet started to move nimbly, and when Ma Xiang fried two dishes in a row, he turned around and saw him standing by the stove where the accident had just happened, he was in a bad mood.

"Who told you to stand here?" Cao Maoxue was also in the kitchen. Ma Xiang didn't dare to speak too loudly, but the volume was enough for Huaqing to clarify his question.

"Is there any problem?" Looking at the menu, Hua Qing was dealing with Ma Xiang, while putting the mandarin fish with flour in his hands into the oil pan, "Don't you think I robbed you of your job?"

"What are you talking about!... No, I didn't mean that..." Ma Xiang was going crazy, wishing to pry Hua Qing's head open to see if there was tofu dregs inside, "I said, do you understand? Know the rules in the kitchen?"

"What's the rule?" Hua Qing handled the fish carefully so that he wouldn't get burnt by the deep frying and ensure the crispy taste, while distracting Ma Xiang, "To be honest, I really don't know much about these things. .”

"No wonder!" Sure enough, I don't know much! "Do you know that people who work in the kitchen are very taboo about things that have happened, and it will bring bad luck to those who take over..."

"You are superstitious." After frying the fish, Hua Qing poured the remaining oil into the oil basin, threw the onion and ginger at the bottom of the pan and sautéed it, "The tool is dead, it won't move, something will happen, the fault is The person who uses the tool is not the tool. Why do we put unwarranted responsibility on the wrong person?"

"How can there be so many mistakes... No, Hua Qing, did you listen to what I just said?"

"Pass me the ketchup, please?" Seeing that the small ingredients at the bottom of the pot were almost fried, and Ma Xiang kept talking again, Hua Qing could only order him to pass over the seasoning that he couldn't reach, "Hurry up, After a while, the taste of the sauce will become worse when the fire is too high."

"Here!" They are all cooking on the stove. Of course, Ma Xiang knows that the dishes in the pot are cooked one minute earlier and one minute later, which has a great impact on the taste. "No, I said Huaqing..."

"Aren't you busy? If you're not busy, there are still a few dishes on this list that haven't been fried. Can you help me share two?" Hua Qing poured the prepared sauce on the mandarin fish, and called Chuancai loudly The staff sent the fish out, and at the same time slapped the menu on Ma Xiang's hand, "I still have a few dishes on my side, so I have to go and cut them quickly."

"Hey!" What is this!

"I have time to feed and feed there, have you finished your work!" Cao Maoxue, who had noticed the movements of the two of them, really wanted to throw Ma Erha into the oil pan and fry him.

We have tried our best to make up the materials that can be made up. When the time for ordering the meal is approaching, the menu for the evening table reservation is still missing two main ingredients.It’s not that everyone can’t think of a way, but that the ingredients for that dish were all purchased yesterday, and they were brought back from the fresh market early in the morning.

Cao Maoxue pinched his temples and walked around the back kitchen several times. It wasn't that he couldn't think of alternative dishes, but that the other party was too picky about what he wanted. It took him several times to finalize the menu, and he had to change it now. It is estimated that the other party will definitely not agree.

"Who are the people who ordered the food?" Cao Maoxue had seen the menu in Huaqing's hand. If it was too special to tell, it could only be said to be relatively delicate. "Did you make any special requests before? "

"It's all written on the list. I only know that there are old people and a few children who came this time." Cao Maoxue didn't discuss the menu in person, and he didn't know more details, "But the other party is also ours. The regular customer in the store is gone, and it is really unreasonable not to meet the other party's request."

"What if we can replace it with dishes that are more refined and more suitable for guests?" The left and right things have already happened. What they can do now is to make up for it as much as possible. It is a good thing that the other party can accept it. I did my best.

"I'll call again to find a solution." Cao Maoxue understood the temptation in Huaqing's eyes, but doing so would definitely affect the restaurant's reputation. In the end, he still didn't want to nod easily.

"Otherwise, we have prepared two sets of plans. You continue to call and continue to look for ingredients, and I will try to make two substitutes for the existing ingredients. Of course it is good, if the other party cannot accept it, I will take responsibility. "His resignation application has already been handed in. At worst, today's affairs will not be completed. He left a few days early, which will not have much impact.

"Huaqing?" Cao Maoxue tightened his grip on the menu.

"That's it." Hua Qing patted Cao Maoxue on the shoulder vigorously, "When I was at my worst, it was you who agreed to hire me. Regardless of success or failure, today I will treat you as if I were here to repay your favor."

Cao Maoxue frowned slightly, when the other party was at his worst?Why doesn't he have any impression...

Cao Maoxue wanted to ask a few more questions, but the other party had already walked to the other side and began to pick and choose among the remaining ingredients, filling a small basin full.

According to Huaqing's idea, since there are old people and children among the diners this time, they should prepare some light and digestible food. Moreover, children are likely to be interested in those delicate and beautiful foods, and they should also be properly prepared in terms of plasticity. Take it into consideration.After such a screening, there are not many ingredients available.

Time was running out, so Hua Qing washed and peeled the purple sweet potato and yam first, put one into a steamer, cut the other into pieces, put jujubes, hawthorn, and rock sugar into a small pot, added water to boil, then turned to a simmer and simmered.A part of the baby spinach is slightly scalded with boiling water and put aside to wait for cooling. The rest is put into a blender and crushed.Take the cabbage heart that is as complete as possible, cut it into the required size, blanch it with boiling water until soft, and set aside.Because the above preparations are appetizing and easy-to-eat soup snacks, Hua Qing thought for a while and took out some black rice, steamed it in a pot, and then beat it into rice milk. Beat the eggs with sugar, mix well and put it in the steamer.

After doing these things well, when Hua Qing turned around to look at Purple Potato, it was no surprise that he received several monster-like eyes.
