Food Tycoon

Yu Lu never forgot about fried shredded carrots. At night, he dreamed that he fried shredded carrots that were delicious. Even Yu Bing, who didn't like carrots the most, clamored to eat them.

When making breakfast the next morning, he asked Ah Hai to teach him how to fry shredded carrots.Although Yu Lu can be regarded as a chef, he has few opportunities to cook. Except for his own home-cooked dishes, he really has no chance to cook, so his knife skills are very average, and the carrots he cut are uneven in thickness.

Ah Hai couldn't see it, so he walked over, took the knife from his hand, and demonstrated it to him: "The knife is stable when you hold it like this."

Yu Lu switched over and tried.Ah Hai said: "Don't move." Then he stretched out his hand and took Yu Lu's fingers to correct his movements, "Try this."

Yu Lu only felt that there was an electric current passing from Ah Hai's finger to his heart, and then his scalp felt numb, and he almost threw away the knife: "Why is there electricity in your hand!"

Ah Hai looked at his hands: "No way."

Yu Lu guessed that it was the effect of static electricity, but he forgot that his hands were wet, and it was impossible for this degree of wetness to generate static electricity.He concentrated on cutting radishes, and at first he was a little uncomfortable, but it was indeed the best way to cut vegetables, so that the knife would be stable. After a few more cuts, he found that the slices of radishes were much more even.

Ah Hai subconsciously twirled his right finger, and looked at Yu Lu thoughtfully, with deep eyes.

Yu Lu cut the vegetables, brushed the pan and put oil on it. Ah Hai said: "Put more oil, enough to cover the carrots, use low heat, wait until the oil is 15% hot, and then add shredded carrots to pull the oil. The oil pulling time is [-] seconds. "

"What degree is [-]% hot?" Yu Lu is not very good at distinguishing this.

"The oil is hot, but not to the point of smoking. Put the oil first, let me tell you. The oil is pulled to remove the peculiar smell in the carrots. If the oil is too hot, the carrots tend to turn black. The time is too short, and the taste is not exhausted. If the time is too long, the carrots will not be brittle. This degree must be grasped." A Hai is a qualified teacher and explained it in detail.

Under A Hai's instruction, Yu Lu started to fry the shredded carrots. Despite the master's instructions, he was a little hectic the first time he did it. In the end, because the speed was a bit slow, the carrots were not as crisp as A Hai's. It tasted a bit better, and Yu Lu felt quite satisfied.

When the dishes were served, Yu Bing pouted, "I won't eat this."

Yu Lu held a shredded carrot and put it near Yu Bing's mouth: "Try it, Uncle made it himself, the taste is different from usual."

Yu Bing gritted his teeth and ate one, nodded: "Yes, it's delicious." He took the initiative to pick up the shredded carrot with his chopsticks.

Yu Lu had been busy all morning, when he heard his nephew's words, he immediately felt it was worth it, and he smiled at Ah Hai: "I will do it too."

There was a little smile in Ah Hai's eyes: "Just do more."

"Of order, Master, I will definitely work hard." Yu Lu smiled.

Ah Hai looked at Yu Lu with a playful smile, and felt that he was finally a little lively like a young man.

Ah Hai quickly made a menu with [-] dishes, half of them were home-cooked dishes, and the other half were famous dishes that were more difficult.He handed over the menu to Luo Junsheng, and as expected, Luo Junsheng chose dishes that were relatively difficult, probably because he felt that since he spent a lot of money to learn how to cook, it must be worth the money, and it is only worthwhile to learn difficult dishes.

Ah Hai didn't tell him anything. Although the home-cooked food might not seem worth learning, the Luo family runs a small restaurant, and people don't want to come to eat especially high-end dishes. The home-cooked food sells the most, and Home-cooked food is the easiest way to make it, and it is still the way to make money.When the time comes, Luo Junsheng finds out that learning difficult dishes will not be of much use, so he will naturally ask him to learn how to cook, and he will wait for the tuition fee.

Ah Hai's teaching time is from 10:30 to [-]:[-] in the morning, and then he has to go to work on his own.Yu Lu originally planned to go to class, but he couldn't catch up with the time Ah Hai chose. He had to buy vegetables in the morning, and he had to wash and string vegetables for preparation, so he couldn't find time at all.Moreover, Ah Hai does not seem to be planning to teach Yu Lu how to cook now, but mainly to teach him how to make snacks when he is out of the stall. Yu Lu has a good understanding, and he grasps the characteristics of heat and food very quickly, and the snacks are also well prepared. There are samples.

Yu Lu still couldn't help his curiosity, he asked Ah Hai: "What kind of dishes are you teaching Brother Sheng now?"

"Chicken minced sea cucumber."

Yu Lu said, "It sounds very advanced."

Ah Hai said lightly, "It's just so-so."

Yu Lu carefully looked at the expression on Ah Hai's face, and after a while he said, "Have you ever thought that your family's conditions should be very good."

Ah Hai raised his eyebrows: "Why do you see that?"

"You probably think that shark's fin and bird's nest are common things, don't you?"

Ah Hai said: "I must have been a chef. To me, shark fin bird's nest is a kind of food. Any food is edible in the eyes of a chef. There is no distinction between high and low."

Yu Lu laughed, revealing two pointed canine teeth: "I just want to be an awesome chef like you."

Ah Hai glanced at him: "Of course."

Hearing what he said lightly, Yu Lu also felt that as long as he relied on his own efforts, nothing was impossible.

Ah Hai's plan to make claypot rice was not just talking about it. After receiving the first tuition fee paid by Luo Junsheng, he took Yu Lu Guohai to purchase equipment. From the claypot stove to every casserole, it was He selected them carefully, it doesn't matter if the price is expensive, the important thing is that the material is good.

Yu Lu found that almost every chef has a paranoid about the perfection of tools, containers and ingredients. It can be seen from the attitude of Ah Hai in choosing the casserole. Every casserole must be touched by himself to ensure that the inner glaze color is even and smooth. .

After buying the pots and stoves, Ah Hai went to buy Si Miao Mi again, and if it was the late rice Si Miao Mi that came out this year, then he didn't want it.This afternoon, they spent a lot of effort on purchasing, until it was almost dark before they returned to the island.

Yu Lu wondered if he could set up a stall to do business at night. The oysters hadn’t been processed yet, so he didn’t know if they would go bad tomorrow. There were also customers, who didn’t go to the stall today and didn’t say hello, so he didn’t know if they would wait. .

As soon as they arrived at the pier, they heard an acquaintance say: "Ah Lu, you are still here, many people are waiting to eat oysters at your house."

Yu Lu said with a smile, "I'm going shopping. I'll be there in a while." As he spoke, he unloaded the things from the ferry, loaded them on the tricycle, and took them home. There were a lot of things. The two carts have just been pulled, and after all this work, I rushed to set up a stall to sell oysters. I don't need to sell other things, but oysters are fresh goods and must be disposed of as soon as possible.

When Yu Lu's tricycle appeared on the street, the diners who were eating all breathed a sigh of relief: "The boss finally came, I thought I would make a special trip to fail, let's go, go to his house to eat barbecue."

Yu Lu and Ah Hai quickly opened the stalls, and before the fire started, the customers on the other side took up seats spontaneously, and the seats were soon full.

Yu Lu and Ah Hai worked together in a division of labor, one started the fire and the other adjusted the ingredients. It was not until the fire was lit that Yu Lu took the time to go to the table to order food.While memorizing the menu, he listened to the complaints from the customers, and kept smiling and apologizing: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not busy enough. We went to buy casserole in the afternoon, and we're going to sell claypot rice tomorrow, Master Ah Hai Cook it yourself, if you are free, please come over tomorrow to join us."

"Claypot rice tomorrow?" The person at the next table listened to the conversation between Yu Lu and the guest.

Yu Lu nodded: "Yes, I'm going to work on that today. They are all casserole and rice picked by Master Ah Hai himself. They are definitely the best. Whether they taste good or not, you will know after tasting them tomorrow."

"Then I will definitely come over to eat tomorrow."

"Boss, you are tempting people again. I originally planned to eat your barbecue today and go back tomorrow morning. Do I have to stay for another half a day?"

"Master Ah Hai's product is definitely trustworthy. With such a good opportunity, you must try it first."

The food stalls in Yulu have become famous through word of mouth. Many people come here to eat barbecue and oyster roast. Now that people’s living conditions are better, eating is not only to satisfy their hunger, but also to satisfy their hunger. Desire, where there is delicious food, those old gourmets can smell it from thousands of miles away. Of course, this is also thanks to the convenient information age.There are many people from the county and the city who come to their stall to eat barbecue, because they are considered a tourist attraction, and they can have fun while eating delicious food, so why not do it.

As soon as the news that Yujia stall will launch claypot rice spread, many fans of Yujia delicious food know about it, and many of them plan to make a special trip to eat claypot rice for the first time.Even Yulu didn't know this.

After the busy day, Yu Lu and Ah Hai went back and started to work, busy cleaning the casserole. They bought dozens of pots, and they had to be cleaned.When cleaning the pot, Yu Lu thought that cleaning the pot will be a big project in the future, with dozens of mouthfuls. This casserole is different from ordinary bowls. The bottom of the pot will stick to the bottom of the pot, and it will take a long time to clean it.As my own boss, I hire a helper, but I am about to become a dishwasher. Is there anything more miserable than this? When will I be able to afford a dishwasher?

Will I really be able to open a restaurant like Ah Hai said in the future, and then I can hire a dishwasher? Yu Lu is dreaming while cleaning the pot.

The next day, Ah Hai didn't teach Luo Junsheng a class, and asked Luo Junsheng to practice by himself.His teacher is expensive, skilled, and has a bad temper, so he is not easy to serve. He said that there is no class today, and Luo Junsheng dared not say anything.Originally, cooking is different from studying. The master leads the door, and the cultivation depends on the individual. But in this way, the learning progress will be slowed down.Ah Hai is not in a hurry, anyway, it is Luo Junsheng who should be in a hurry.

Luo Junsheng is not a particularly talented chef, and the food he cooks can only get two or three points of authenticity. He feels that it is not worthwhile to learn, but it is even less worthwhile if he does not learn. If he does not improve his cooking skills, he will not be able to attract customers.What is even more depressing is that when the newly learned dishes are released, few people order them. The reason is that the prices are too expensive.Small restaurants sell dishes from five-star hotels, how many of them know how to eat them?

Luo Junsheng learned two difficult dishes, and finally found that he had entered a misunderstanding, so he considered whether to learn how to cook with A Hai.While he was hesitating, Yu Lu's claypot rice had already become a hit.

Ah Hai is definitely a genius in culinary arts. A skilled chef is not only able to prepare a full banquet of Manchurian and Chinese cuisines, but more importantly, he can cook the most common home-cooked meals to leave a lasting aftertaste.

Ah Hai cooks a wide variety of claypot rice. In addition to the most common flavors such as pork ribs in black bean sauce, chicken, cured meat, rice field eel, and beef, he also makes a variety of seafood rice. Silk seedling rice, the rice has absorbed enough soup, each one is crystal clear, exuding an attractive luster, under the slow fire and slow frying, a layer of golden, crisp and delicious rice crust is baked on the bottom of the pot, it is claypot The essence of rice.

A small claypot rice combines all the essence of rice, which is fragrant, thick, soft and crispy, and it is paired with the Laohuo soup made by Ah Hai himself, so that even the most savage gluttons can’t be picky. Every portion of rice was scraped clean, and every drop of soup was drunk.

Yu Lu’s house used to sell snacks, and there was no staple food, so the business of the restaurant was not affected. Now they start selling claypot rice, which tastes good and is cheap. Almost everyone is willing to go to his house to eat claypot rice. The business of the restaurant began to be affected.It’s just that his family’s claypot rice has more monks than porridge, so it may not be able to catch up, because cooking takes time.Therefore, it also drives the barbecue and oyster roasting business, because customers can't wait while they are waiting, they have to eat something else to pass the time.

The business is really booming like never before. Yu Lu found that he and Ah Hai could not keep up with the work alone, but the income is also very considerable. A claypot rice sells for at least 12 yuan, even if he sells 700 copies a day, there will be With a gross income of [-] yuan, plus the income from grilling oysters, the daily gross income can easily exceed [-] yuan. It is very easy to earn tens of thousands of yuan a month.Yu Lu deeply realized the essence of the saying that one should eat according to one's ability. A person with ability is really not afraid of starving to death wherever he goes.

It’s just that making money also requires a price. They circle around the stove all day, and they are so tired that they can’t stand up straight.

Ah Hai finally raised his opinion: "Find someone to do the dishes, I'm too busy." Now Yu Lu, the boss, is almost completely reduced to a dishwashing worker, and Ah Hai can only do the rest. It's a waste of time and energy to do the dishes!

Yu Lu looked at Ah Hai and grinned: "Okay." Although he was a bit reluctant, Yu Lu still invited a neat aunt from the village to help wash the dishes, and he would give one thousand a month. Learn more than a thousand things.

Boss Yu's restaurant has already recruited dishwashers before it opened, and life is getting better and better.
