Hardcore Chef Dad

At four o'clock in the morning, Feng Yifan had already woken up, because he had agreed with Lin Ruifeng today that he would go to the next door to teach him how to make pot stickers, so he had to get up earlier.

Gently withdrew his hand from under his wife's body, then got up very lightly, and covered his wife's quilt.

When he was about to go out, Feng Yifan still heard his wife's voice: Don't call your name Ruoruo, it's too early now.

Knowing that his wife was still awakened by him, Feng Yifan turned around and went back to the bed, leaned into his wife's ear and whispered: Okay, I know, you sleep a little longer, I'll do the same thing over there, call Ruoruo at six o'clock .”

After listening to her husband's words, Su Ruoxi answered in a daze, then turned her head and went back to sleep.

Feng Yifan bowed his head and kissed his wife's forehead before leaving the room lightly.

After closing the door, Feng Yifan still quietly listened to the movement inside after passing by the door of his mother's room. After confirming that the room was quiet, which meant that his daughter hadn't gotten up, Feng Yifan quickly tiptoed downstairs.

After freshening up downstairs and getting dressed, Feng Yifan went out through the back door of the kitchen and went to the next door to shop the back door early.

He knocked lightly on the door, and after a while the door was opened from the inside, Lin Ruifeng had obviously been waiting for a long time.

The two entered the door one after the other, and Feng Yifan saw that the old couple of the Lin family were already busy. This is also what most people who do breakfast will experience every day. They have to get up very early and get busy.

Seeing Feng Yifan coming, Father Lin immediately smiled and said, Yifan is here, thank you Yifan for teaching Ruifeng so many things.

Lin's mother also continued: Yes, many people like the miscellaneous soy milk. Thank you Yifan for being so generous and teaching us such a precious secret recipe.

Feng Yifan smiled and said, Uncle Lin, you don't have to be polite, it's not really a secret recipe, it's just a little skill.

Father Lin continued to ask: I heard from Ruifeng that you are coming here today to teach him how to make potstickers?

Feng Yifan nodded: Yes, I remember that Uncle Lin and your family also made pot stickers before, why didn't they do it later?

Lin's mother said helplessly: We only made it for a short time. The main reason is that the taste is not good, and not many people buy it. Later, we gradually stopped making it.

Lin's father also said: Yes, the craftsmanship is not good, the potstickers made are a bit hard, and everyone doesn't like to eat them very much.

Lin Ruifeng also boldly said at this time: The pot stickers my parents made before, the skin was a little hard, and the filling was not well seasoned. I didn't like to eat them very much before, let alone sell them.

Feng Yifan nodded and said with a smile: It's okay, I will teach you the whole process today, and then I will come over every morning, if you don't understand anything, uncle and aunt, just ask me.

Hearing this, the two elders of the Lin family looked at each other, both feeling that Feng Yifan was a bit too troublesome.

Father Lin opened his mouth first and said, This is too much trouble for you, Yifan, how dare you embarrass our old couple like this.

Mother Lin also continued: That's right, Ruifeng just became a teacher. I haven't studied with you for a few days, but you always come to help us. I really don't know how to thank you.

Feng Yifan responded with a smile: Uncle and aunt, we are all neighbors, and when I didn't come back, my father-in-law was also grateful for your help, and now that Ruifeng is my apprentice, it's nothing if I help you.

The two old men of the Lin family looked at each other, and really didn't know what to say?

In fact, Feng Yifan helped the Lin family in this way mainly because in the memory of his previous life, the Lin family helped his wife a lot immediately after an accident happened in his father-in-law's restaurant. Even before Feng Yifan's parents came to pick up their daughter-in-law, Lin Ruifeng's mother took care of Su Ruoxi in the hospital for a long time.

After the previous life, Feng Yifan also found the Lin family, hoping to help the Lin family as a token of gratitude.

However, at that time, Lin Ruifeng was let go because no one cared about him, and he had become a complete street bastard.

Even though the two elders of the Lin family were later picked up by the eldest daughter, the youngest son still made them feel heartbroken.

So in this life, when I saw Lin Ruifeng's extreme behavior that morning,

After Feng Yifan organized him, he decided to help the Lin family well and lead Lin Ruifeng to the right path.

Feng Yifan was also unambiguous, and started to teach directly, and he said all the details of the skills he had mastered.

From kneading the noodles, to mixing the fillings, to how to fry the pot stickers, when to add water and starch, and when to add oil for the second time, everything was told to the Lin family in great detail.

As for the old couple of the Lin family, listening to Feng Yifan's explanation and seeing his skillful production, they were also a little surprised by his craftsmanship.

Uncle, Auntie, and Ruifeng, you must remember that the noodles must be half hot, add half of boiling water and half of cold water, first stir them into cotton wool, and then mix them together.

Seeing Feng Yifan's proficient technique, Lin's father was also a little surprised and said: So that's the case, no wonder we don't make good skins.

Then Feng Yifan made another special preparation before mixing the fillings.

Uncle, Auntie, Ruifeng, I will teach you how to make two different fillings, one is pork, shrimp and corn, and the other is beef filling. Before mixing these two fillings, you need to prepare a portion of oil.

Next, Feng Yifan also explained seriously, and told the Lin family the two oils without any reservations.

Pork, shrimp and corn fillings need to use scallion and ginger oil, and in addition to scallion and ginger, some onions should also be fried together.

Remember, don't use high heat, fry slowly on low heat until the fragrance comes out.

The beef filling should be added with vegetable oil, which is mixed with cumin, fragrant leaves, fragrant fruits and other ingredients and fried in a frying pan.

Before frying this spice, soak it in water first, so as to ensure that it will not be fried, otherwise the fried mustard will be burnt, and the oil will have a bitter taste.

It can be said that Feng Yifan really told the Lin family every detail carefully.

Once the oil is ready, the process of mixing the stuffing is relatively simple, not much different from mixing stuffing with most buns and dumplings. But when the oil is filtered and added, the aroma of the stuffing is improved a lot.

The Lin family also made preparations, took out the pan from which the potstickers were made before, and watched Feng Yifan make them together.

When wrapping, Feng Yifan only squeezed the upper opening, but left a small opening on both sides, and did not completely seal the opening of the pot stickers.

In this way, a small opening is left on each side, so that the water vapor can evaporate slightly during frying, so that the filling can be steamed.

The pot stickers were wrapped one by one, and the Lin family also started to work together.

When it comes to rolling steamed buns, the Lin family is still very quick at this time. After all, Lin Ruifeng's parents have made breakfast for many years, and they are still very proficient in rolling and buns, but Lin Ruifeng seems a bit clumsy.

Father Lin saw that his son was still a little clumsy, so he shook his head helplessly: You, it's all because your mother spoiled you before, and now you can't even make such a simple package of pot stickers.

Hearing his father's words, Lin Ruifeng lowered his head unconsciously, obviously feeling very disappointed.

Feng Yifan hurriedly said: Uncle Lin, don't always talk about Ruifeng like that. He has worked very hard now. I believe he will study hard and he will definitely do better in the future.

Mother Lin nodded when she heard what Feng Yifan said, That's right, you old man is not as patient as Yifan.

After wrapping the pot stickers, they started frying. Feng Yifan also gave detailed instructions on the firepower and the degree of frying.

And when the pot was covered and fried, Feng Yifan also prepared a pot of starch water: This starch water is prepared by mixing water and potato starch in a ratio of 1:5.

Then, when one side of the pot stickers was almost golden, Feng Yifan opened the lid and poured the starch water down.

After it is steaming again, open it again and sprinkle some sesame seeds, and then turn over the pot stickers. Cover the pot for the last time and fry for a while to complete.

Feng Yifan lifted the lid of the pot, used a long shovel to shovel out the pot stickers row by row, and placed them on the prepared plate.

The pot stickers are slightly yellow and sesame on the front, and the bottom is a crispy meringue. It looks really beautiful, and at the same time, the stuffing and sesame seeds are fried and fragrant, which is really attractive.

After taking it out, Feng Yifan glanced at the time, handed the plate to Lin Ruifeng and said, Try it first, I have to go back quickly.

After saying that, without waiting for the Lin family to ask, Feng Yifan hurried out from the back door and turned to the door of Su Ji's back kitchen. After entering the door, not daring to delay at all, he quickly rushed out of the back kitchen and ran to the second floor.
