Siheyuan: Started in 1950, third-level cook

Haven't found the thief yet?

Chen Jun was a little surprised, but he was not interested in going to the Central Court to watch the fun.

The Jia family's money could have been stolen by their own people, or she had a brain cramp and remembered the wrong place. There could be no third result.

Because on ordinary days, people in the courtyard didn't like Jia Zhang very much, and it was even more impossible for anyone to visit the Jia family.

Money won’t grow wings and fly away.

"Brother, why do I hear that the Second Master is going to hold a meeting for the entire hospital?"

Lin Yao looked outside the door curiously and felt that it was quite lively.

Chen Jun waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. It's Jia Zhang who lost her private money and is causing trouble in the courtyard.

The next day, Chen Jun went out at normal working hours.

When they arrived at the cafeteria, Chen Jun called together Master Liu and Master Li.

"Master Li, Master Liu, I wrote down some details and precautions for stir-frying a big pot dish last night. It shows the ratio of seasonings and the regulations on the heat. You two can take a look at it and cook according to the recipe as closely as possible. Even if the big pot dish you make is not as good as yesterday's, it will not be much different."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of everyone in the kitchen lit up.

I just promised a benefit yesterday, and it came true the next day?

Master Li took the handwritten recipe from Chen Jun with some excitement and glanced at it carefully.

Wow, it’s really detailed!

Take the most common shredded potatoes for example. It describes in great detail how to cut them, how to fry them, and how much seasoning to use for each kilogram of potatoes.

It is so detailed that even the time required for cooking is specially marked.

Not to mention a chef with such basic skills as him, even if an apprentice follows these steps, the dishes he cooks will taste very good.

The people in the kitchen looked at each other, with some heat in their eyes.

This ordinary piece of paper can bring them a skill that can support them for a lifetime.

Chen Jun seemed to have seen through their thoughts and said with a smile, "Don't be in a hurry to learn how to cook. Cooking is like being a human being. You have to learn to walk before you can learn to run. If you want to learn how to cook, start by cutting vegetables."

“Don’t underestimate cutting vegetables. If you don’t cut well, the ingredients will be heated unevenly when cooking, affecting the overall taste.”

"Yes, Director Chen is right!" The apprentices were the first to respond.

The handymen also nodded, thinking that what Chen Jun said made sense.

Good things are worth waiting for. As long as Chen Jun is willing to teach them, they can start from the most basic things and have hope for the future.

"Okay, now that we've finished talking, let's get back to work and try to improve the satisfaction of our cafeteria."

Master Li and Master Liu nodded when they heard this, and happily went back to the kitchen to work.

Chen Jun walked around the cafeteria and warehouse. Although he was young, his aura was no less than that of the old cadres in the factory.

Even if Director Song and Chen Jun stood together, Director Song would still be a little weaker. The main reason was that Director Song was too inactive, especially since Chen Jun became the deputy director and he even missed the daily inspections.

Compared with yesterday, the working atmosphere in Canteen No. 2 and Canteen No. 3 has undergone a tremendous change, especially Master Liu and Master Li, who are particularly serious when cooking.

Although they had a good relationship, neither of them wanted to be outdone by the other after getting Chen Jun's recipe, so they both put in their best efforts.

It was almost eleven o'clock in the morning, and the aroma of food in the cafeteria had already passed through the kitchen and drifted into each workshop.

Chen Jun got up and strolled to canteen No. 2.

Today's lunch has four dishes, one stewed potato, one fried potato, one stewed cabbage and one radish soup.

Master Liu works very efficiently and has already cooked the dishes for today's lunch.

Seeing Chen Jun coming, Master Liu smiled nervously: "Director Chen is here, please try it and see what needs improvement."

Master Liu, who is older than the third uncle Yan Bugui, actually felt the same nervousness when facing Chen Jun as when he faced his own master.

Chen Jun nodded: "Let's try it together."

Seeing this, the people in the kitchen went to get their lunch boxes.

Master Liu's cooking skills have definitely improved today. They already wanted to try some of his food while they were working.

"Woo~ It's so hot, but today's food is better than before."

"Yes, the taste is indeed much better than before, especially the stewed potatoes, which are really tasty."

"The stewed cabbage is also good, and the vermicelli tastes really good."

Listening to the praise from the people in the kitchen, Chef Liu smiled. He had just tasted the dishes and they were indeed much better than before. It was only the first day and they would definitely get better and better in the future.

Master Liu has even started planning to take part in the next cook assessment, as his salary will increase after passing the test.

"Well, Master Liu has made great progress, which means his basic skills are good, but the heat is still a little off. You should pay more attention to cooking in the future and try to make a big pot dish as good as a small stir-fry."

Supplies were relatively scarce these days, especially in winter, and there were only a few dishes served over and over again in the canteen, which was enough for Master Li and Master Liu to practice.

After inspecting canteen No. 2, Chen Jun went to canteen No. 3.

Master Liu also hurriedly chased after him. He wanted to see how Lao Li was doing. In case he was better than him, the two of them could exchange experiences.

Master Li's condition is better than Master Liu's, but there are still some minor problems.

After all, he is an old master, and some habits cannot be changed in a short time.

But overall, Chen Jun is still very satisfied. At least Master Liu and Master Li both want to improve their cooking skills and will put in the effort to study and practice.

"Come, follow me to Canteen No. 1. There's still a serving of cabbage stew to be made."

This was left behind intentionally by Chen Jun, who wanted Master Li and Master Liu to learn from him.

When they arrived at the kitchen, the apprentice lit the fire and heated the pot.

Chen Jun poured a proper amount of oil into the pot.

With his current level as a third-level cook, he can tell by feel how hot the oil is.

Pour in the spices and stir-fry until the aroma comes out, then throw in some pork and start stir-frying.

Then put the cabbage in.

Upon seeing this, Master Liu and the other man immediately perked up and stared at the way Chen Jun cooked.

You know what, there is some trick to this. With so much cabbage being stir-fried with a big spatula, it actually appears to be very organized, with the cabbage leaves lying neatly in order, without a single piece being thrown out.

After stir-frying for a while, Chen Jun took a spoon and started adding seasonings into the pot. There was no need to observe the ratio of the seasonings deliberately, just scoop out the right amount.

Continue stir-frying for a few more times, then add the soaked vermicelli.

Throughout the whole process, Chen Jun was carefully explaining the details. It turns out that a simple stewed cabbage can have many tricks.
