Chapter 78

~9 min read 1,735 words

With the guidance of a famous teacher, Qin Huai felt that his soup hanging technology was advancing by leaps and bounds.

Of course, he only felt that he was advancing by leaps and bounds on the first day.

On the second day, he retreated nine hundred miles.

But a famous teacher is a famous teacher.

Compared with Zheng Da's abstract teaching and pickiness about the talent of 99% of pastry chefs, Huang Shengli's teaching method is obviously encouraging.

It may be that years of teaching apprentices have tempered his temper, or it may be because of rheumatism and waist disease, he doesn't work on the front line much, and he has started to enjoy his retirement life, so he looks at everything very openly. Even if Qin Huai advances by leaps and bounds and then retreats, Huang Shengli can find points of encouragement.

"Very good, Xiao Qin, don't be discouraged."

"Although your beef soup today is obviously not as good as yesterday, this can better explain the problem. Now think carefully, why is the operation exactly the same, yesterday's beef soup looked everything good, but today's beef soup is so bad?" Huang Shengli sat, drinking tea leisurely, and asked.

From his camera side, you can clearly see him sitting in the corner near the kitchen door, cool, and can control the overall situation. A small table was also set up beside him, with brewed tea and some snacks he loved to eat, among which a piece of fresh meat mooncake was obviously made by Zheng Siyuan.

Huang's restaurant opened by Huang Shengli is very famous in Gusu. Qin Huai searched online a little, and the reviews were overwhelming. Whether it is the ranking score on the review website or the sharing share of major software, it is far ahead. It can be seen that it is basically not brushed, all relying on strength.

Because the bad reviews this year are obviously much more than before. Many people commented that the taste of the restaurant is not as good as before, and it is not as powerful as it is blown online.

Although there are enthusiastic old customers explaining below that it is because the head chef Master Huang is old and his body is not very good, and the one who is cooking now is his eldest apprentice whose cooking skills have not been practiced at home, but it is very obvious that the famous Huang's restaurant has started to go downhill this year.

When Qin Huai saw the online reviews, he was a bit worried for Huang Shengli, after all, his own industry started to go downhill, and no one's mood would be very good. He even thought about whether to reduce the time to ask Huang Shengli to avoid annoying him.

Then Qin Huai found that he was wrong, Huang Shengli didn't care at all.

He happily commanded his apprentices to move a chair and sit at the door of the back kitchen every day, while guiding the apprentices in the kitchen to do this and that, watching whether they made mistakes, whether they were lazy, while video connecting Qin Huai to guide him to boil soup, pointing out the work with great interest.

Qin Huai even heard one of Huang Shengli's apprentices whisper in a place he couldn't see: "Is that the master's closing apprentice in the video? Didn't we agree before that I was the closing apprentice?"

To this, Qin Huai can only draw a conclusion—Huang Shengli really loves to be a master.

He can persist in being a master for so many years, accept so many apprentices, never get tired or dislike that the apprentices don't have much talent, the craftsmanship hasn't learned the essence, and even in the transition period when he is about to retire, he can't catch his class and doesn't get angry, and sits in the kitchen happily all day, all relying on his love for teaching people.

If Huang Shengli didn't become a chef, but a teacher, he would probably be a famous teacher with peaches and plums all over the world.

Famous teacher teaching continues.

Facing Huang Shengli's question, Qin Huai thought seriously and replied: "I feel that the beef cut today seems to be different from yesterday."

"Is it possible that I didn't cut it well?"

Huang Shengli nodded: "I said, Xiao Qin, you actually have talent, but no one taught you before. Look, I asked you and you found the biggest reason why your beef soup wasn't boiled well today; you are not familiar enough with the ingredient of beef."

"Of course, the level is not enough is also a big reason, but improvement always has a process."

"Have you noticed that today's beef is obviously much fresher than yesterday's. That's right, the process of making beef soup is to wash and cut the beef, soak it to remove blood, and then put it into the pot with cold water to blanch and then stew."

"But facing ingredients in different states, you have to change some processing methods slightly."

"Just like you usually knead dough, I remember you told me that when you sold breakfast in your breakfast shop before, you couldn't get up in the morning, so you kneaded the dough the night before. But now you get up a little earlier in the morning, and the canteen business hours are not so early, so you can get up in the morning and make it now."

"You must be clear that these two different ways of preparing dishes to make the same steamed buns must also be adjusted slightly in the process. Of course, kneading the dough in advance, the steamed buns made are definitely not as delicious as those made now."

"We savory chefs are also like this; cooking cannot be hard-set formulas, you cannot memorize a method and then apply this method to everything. In the case that your technology is not mature enough, you still hard-set formulas, and the probability of failure will be very high."

"I have a document here on how to deal with various ingredients and how to deal with different situations. I will send it to you now." "You have time to study it carefully today, and boil beef soup tomorrow, let's see how tomorrow goes."

Master Huang laughed and drank tea again. The eldest apprentice who acted as a teaching model yesterday saw that he had finished speaking and quietly poked half a face into the camera.

"Master, should these few dishes of eel paste be made by you? This is for the engagement banquet, it is said that it was specially ordered for our restaurant, I am afraid..."

Master Huang immediately put down the teacup and got up: "That must be done by me. Xiao Qin, I have something to do here, I have already sent the document, study it carefully yourself, if you have any questions, ask me on WeChat at any time."

"The high-quality soup should still be practiced as usual, don't have psychological burden, practice boldly, you have to believe in yourself. Your seasoning is still very excellent, and you have talent, you have to believe in your feelings. When you don't know what to do and no one asks, follow your feelings, I am very optimistic about you."

Master Huang hung up the phone.

Qin Huai nodded to the mobile phone screen that had hung up the phone and began to read the document.

At Table 9, Seeing Ouyang, who was seriously skipping work, held the beef soup, a bit disgusted, but adhering to the principle of not wasting, still drank it in small sips.

"Luo Luo, you said that your brother's snacks are made well, why would he think of boiling soup?" Seeing Ouyang was really puzzled, pointing to Qin Huai who didn't hear anything outside the window and only looked at the phone document, "And online classes."

"In this day and age, learning to cook can actually take online classes!"

Seeing Ouyang didn't understand, he could only drink another sip of beef soup and continue to be disgusted: "And the online classes taught are not very good, after a day of classes, the soup boiled is even worse."

Qin Luo was also drinking beef soup; this was what she cried and shouted for, and she had to bite the bullet and finish it even if it didn't taste good.

"You don't understand, my brother said, this is laying the foundation." Qin Luo felt she understood.

She felt that she really understood this time. The online class teacher Qin Huai found taught really well, and she could understand every sentence!

"Teacher Huang said, it's good to have problems when laying the foundation, and problems can be corrected in time. If there are no problems, it will be very difficult to correct after the foundation part is practiced and then advanced. This is like me, my math grades still have a lot of room for improvement, but my English is already very difficult to improve."

Seeing Ouyang:?

Are you sure this is the same?

No wonder your Chinese high school entrance exam failed.

However, Seeing Ouyang felt that Qin Luo's words made sense, but it was bitter for him.

Alas, I originally thought that coming here to taste dishes and drink soup every day was a good thing, but it turned into a bitter chore.

Sir, if the soup is not good and I get fat, can it be counted as work-related injury?

Seeing Ouyang looked at Qin Huai in the kitchen with full worry, hoping that Qin Huai could quickly finish laying the foundation so that he could drink delicious soup.

Obviously, Qin Huai couldn't hear Seeing Ouyang's heart voice.

The document sent by Huang Shengli was very detailed, and even could be searched directly by ingredient name. After studying the beef, Qin Huai felt that he had realized it again.

He can do it again!

The advantage is with me!

Qin Huai decided to work overtime to boil another pot of beef soup.

Anyway, the soup can be boiled at the same time, high-quality soup and beef soup boiled at the same time, practice more.

Listen to Master Huang's words, and also listen to Master Zheng's words.

As for what constructive opinions Master Zheng put forward...

Master Zheng suggested that Qin Huai listen more to Master Huang's words, and then practice more.
