Chapter 78 Famous Teacher’s Guidance (Thanks to the leader of the Stars Still on Iron Armor for the reward!) With the guidance of a famous teacher, Qin Huai felt that his soup-making skills were making rapid progress. Of course, just on the first day I felt like I had made a thousand miles. On the second day, we retreated another nine hundred miles. But a famous teacher is a famous teacher. Compared with Zheng Da's abstract teaching and the pickiness that looks down upon the talent of 99% of white chefs, Huang Shengli's teaching method is obviously encouraging. It may be that his temper has been tempered by many years of apprenticeship, or it may be that he no longer works on the front line due to rheumatism and back disease, and has begun to enjoy his retirement life, so he sees everything with an open mind. Even if Qin Huai makes rapid progress and then retreats, Huang Shengli can also find points of encouragement. "Very good, Xiao Qin, don't be discouraged." "Although your beef soup today is obviously not as good as yesterday, it explains the problem better. If you think about it now, why is it that with the exact same operation, yesterday's beef soup seems to be good, but today's beef soup is so obviously bad?" Huang Sheng Sheng sat and drank tea leisurely and asked. From his lens, you can clearly see him sitting in the corner of the kitchen near the door, cool and in control of the overall situation. There was a small table beside him, with brewed tea and some of his favorite foods on it. One of the dishes of fresh meat mooncakes was obviously made by Zheng Siyuan.
The Huangji Restaurant opened by Huang Shengli is very famous in Suzhou. Qin Huai did a little search on the Internet and found rave reviews. Whether it was the ranking score on the review website or the share share of major software, it was unparalleled. It can be seen that basically there is no brushing, it all relies on strength. Because there are obviously many more negative reviews this year than before. Many people commented that the taste of the restaurant is not as good as before, not as good as what is said online. Although some enthusiastic regulars explained below that the reason is that the chef, Master Huang, is old and not in good health, and now his eldest apprentice is in charge and has not yet mastered his cooking skills, but the famous Huangji Restaurant has begun to decline this year. It's still obvious. When Qin Huai saw the online reviews, he was a little worried about Huang Shengli. After all, his own industry was starting to go downhill, and no one would be in a good mood. He even thought about whether to reduce the time he spent asking Huang Shengli so as not to annoy him. Then Qin Huai would realize that he was wrong and Huang Shengli didn't care at all. Every day, he cheerfully directed his apprentices to move a chair to sit at the door of the kitchen. While guiding the apprentices in the kitchen to do this and that, to see if they made any mistakes or if they were lazy, he also connected Qin Huai via video link to guide him in making soup. , it was a pleasure to give guidance. Qin Huai even heard one of Huang Shengli's disciples whispering from a place where he couldn't see: "Is that the master's closed disciple in the video? Didn't I agree before that I am the closed disciple?" Qin Huai could only draw one conclusion from this - Huang Shengli really loved being a master. He was able to persist in being a master for so many years and accept so many apprentices. He never got tired or resented that the apprentices were not so talented and did not learn the essence of their craftsmanship. Even during the transition period when he was vaguely preparing to retire, he was a little unable to take over his class. He doesn't get angry and just sits in the kitchen happily all day long, all because he loves to teach others. If Huang Shengli were not a chef but a teacher, he would probably be a famous teacher with many talents all over the world. Teaching by famous teachers continues. Faced with Huang Shengli's question, Qin Huai thought about it carefully and answered: "I feel that the beef cut today seems to be different from yesterday's." "Maybe I didn't cut it properly?" Huang Shengli nodded: "I told you, Xiao Qin, you are actually very talented, but no one has taught you before. You see, when I asked you, I found out the biggest reason why you didn't cook the beef soup today. You’re not familiar enough with beef.” "Of course, insufficient level is also a big reason, but there is always a process for improvement." "Have you noticed that today's beef is obviously much fresher than yesterday. Yes, the process of making beef soup is to clean and cut the beef into pieces, soak it to remove the blood, then blanch it in cold water and then stew it." “But when faced with ingredients in different states, we need to slightly change the processing methods.” "Just like you usually knead dough. I remember you told me that when you were selling breakfast at your breakfast shop, you couldn't get up in the morning, so you kneaded the dough the night before. But now you get up in the morning It’s a little earlier, and the canteen’s opening hours are not that early, so you can make it fresh after waking up in the morning. ” "You must know that the process of making the same buns using these two different preparation methods will definitely need to be slightly adjusted. Of course, if you knead the dough in advance, the buns will definitely not be as delicious as freshly made buns."
"The same is true for us at Red Case. You can't just follow a formula when cooking. You can't just memorize a method and apply it to every situation. If you try to apply a formula when the technology is not mature enough, the probability of failure will be high. It will be huge.” "I have a document here on how to handle various types of ingredients and how to deal with different situations. I will send it to you now." "You have time to study it carefully today and cook beef soup tomorrow. Let's see how it goes tomorrow. ” Master Huang took another sip of tea with a smile. The eldest apprentice who acted as a teaching model yesterday saw that he had finished speaking and quietly leaned half of his face into the mirror. "Master, why don't you make these eel paste dishes by yourself? This is for an engagement party. It is said that it was specially ordered for our restaurant. I'm afraid..." Master Huang immediately put down his tea cup and stood up: "That's what I have to do. Xiao Qin, I have something to do here. I have already sent the document. You can study it yourself. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on WeChat." "You still have to practice soup stock as usual every day. Don't be mentally burdened and practice boldly. You have to believe in yourself. Your seasoning is still very good, and you are very talented. You have to believe in your own feelings. When you don't know what to do, Just follow your own feelings when no one asks, I’m very optimistic about you.” Master Huang hung up the phone. Qin Huai nodded towards the phone screen where he had hung up the phone and started reading the document. At table 9, Ouyang, who was skipping work seriously, was holding beef soup. He was a little disgusted, but he still drank it in small sips in line with the principle of not wasting. "Luo Luo, you said your brother made this snack well, why did you think of making soup?" Ouyang was really puzzled and pointed at Qin Huai, who was not listening to anything outside the window and only focused on reading documents on his mobile phone, "Why? Online classes.” “These days, you can actually take online classes to learn how to cook!” Ouyang didn't understand. He could only take another sip of beef soup and continued to dislike it: "Besides, the teaching in this online class is not very good. After one day of class, the soup made is even worse." Qin Luo was also drinking beef soup. She was crying for it and had to finish it if it didn't taste good. "You don't understand. My brother said this is to lay the foundation." Qin Luo felt that he understood. She felt that she really understood this time. The online course teacher Qin Huai found was really good at teaching, and she could understand every word! "Teacher Huang has said that it is better to have problems when laying the foundation. Only when problems occur can they be corrected in time. If there are no problems, it will be difficult to correct them after you have finished practicing the basic parts and then advance. This is just like me. My math scores There’s still a lot of room for improvement, but it’s hard to improve my English.” Ouyang:? Are you sure this is the same? No wonder you failed the Chinese language exam. However, Ouyang felt that what Qin Luo said made sense, but it was just a pain for him. Alas, I originally thought that coming here to try dishes and drink soup every day would be a beautiful thing, but it turned out to be a chore. Sir, if the soup doesn’t taste good and I gain weight from drinking it, can it be considered a work-related injury? Ouyang looked at Qin Huai in the kitchen with a sad face, hoping that Qin Huai could finish the basics quickly so that he could drink delicious soup. Obviously, Qin Huai couldn't hear Ouyang's thoughts. The document sent by Huang Shengli was very detailed and could even be directly searched by the name of the ingredients. After studying the beef, Qin Huai felt that he had realized something again. He can do it again! The advantage is mine! Qin Huai decided to work overtime and cook another pot of beef soup.
Anyway, the soup can be cooked at the same time. The stock and beef soup can be cooked at the same time, so practice more. You must listen to what Master Huang says, and you must also listen to what Master Zheng says. As for what constructive suggestions Master Zheng put forward... Master Zheng suggested that Qin Huai listen to Master Huang more and practice more. (End of chapter)
