Don't pretend, I'm the God of Cooking and I'll showdown!

"Master Qi, how hard should Da Taozi's noodles be?"

Wei Gan asked curiously when he saw that Qi Siming was starting to make big peaches.

Qi Siming put the dough on the workbench, pressed it with a rolling pin and said:
"The harder the better, the minimum hardness must be that of sliced ​​noodles, otherwise, the noodles will be deformed or even cracked during baking, which will affect the final appearance."

Wei Gan looked at him struggling, and felt that it was a bit difficult to reconcile the noodles.

Especially for those who are not proficient in white paper, wet dough and hard dough are difficult points for pastry chefs.

Niu Chuang said:

"In the past two days, you can go to the pastry department and work overtime. Although you may not be able to reach the level of our boss, it is still no problem to be a peach."

Hearing this, Wei Qian was relieved.

Qi Siming used a rolling pin to flatten the hard dough bit by bit, and the entire dough was covered with indentations of the rolling pin.

After finishing the work, I took the rolling pin and rolled out the thick and hard dough as much as possible. This process was very slow, but it was this slowness that made the rolled dough very smooth.

Roll out the dough, cut it in the middle with a kitchen knife, and divide it into two halves.

The two halves of the longevity peach should be determined at the beginning and made separately, so that the longevity peach will be beautiful and complete.

If the pastry is put on the pastry and then cut, it will cause cracks, and it may even cause the oil to seep out, which will affect the appearance.

After dividing, take the remaining half of the pastry noodles, separate them again, roll them into two pastry sheets, and stack them on the hard dough sheets.

Then take the jam and carefully brush a layer on top.

While doing this, Qi Siming said:
"In the past, there was no such step. It's because people nowadays are tricky and force chefs to make improvements... This layer of jam can't be too much, or it will come out when you roll it out. It's such a thin layer. I want it to taste delicious. , you have to make the smell stronger, otherwise the smell won’t come out.”

In the past, they were all white flour pancakes. In the era of lack of food and clothing, they were a bit sweet and crispy, and they were already considered rare snacks.

But now that the material is abundant, not to mention children, adults don't like to eat this kind of noodle pancakes, so jam is added to add a new taste to the noodle slices.

When Wei Gan heard it, he quickly wrote it down, this step is very important for the rich flavor of jam.

Aunt Sun asked:
"If you don't like jam, what else can you put in?"

"Put crushed peanuts and sesame seeds, and add some brown sugar, but also not too much, just a thin layer."

After Qi Siming finished speaking, he took the prepared peanuts and sesame seeds and sprinkled them on the jam, rolled them out with a rolling pin, and then folded the two dough pieces in half in a three-fold manner.

After folding in half, you can't roll it in a hurry, you have to put it aside and relax first.

This will allow the pieces to fit together as closely as possible.

After relaxing for a while, roll it out, carefully roll out the dough, then fold it in half again, and relax again.

Roll out the two dough pieces into a round cake, take the mold over, buckle it on the chopping board, cover the rolled dough piece, remove the excess corners, put it directly on the baking tray, and send it to the oven for cooking baked.

These two slices are very large and need to be baked a little longer.

After making the big peach dough, Qi Siming took Niu Chuanghe's green dough, divided it into two halves, and rolled out the two doughs separately.

He said to Wei Gan:

"The green leaves can't be too big, but the color must be good. If the amount of green juice is not enough, you can add some matcha powder or wormwood juice to increase the green color as much as possible."

Spread a layer of lard on the inside of the roll, fold it in half several times, roll it out again, and sprinkle a layer of crushed peanuts and sesame seeds.

Fold it in half and wrap it properly, then roll it into a slender strip, as close as possible to the shape of a peach leaf.

Roll it out and press the pattern of leaves in the middle, and then put it in another oven for baking.

"The leaves are for matching. If you want to be careful, you can also make some veins, but in that case, the leaves are too beautiful and it will overwhelm the host. It is unnecessary."

The purpose of making the peaches super huge is to attract everyone's attention.

If the green leaves are made vividly, the guests will turn their eyes from the peaches to the leaves, visually creating a distracting effect, which is not good.

So the leaves should be made sloppy, don't take it too seriously.

At this moment, a lot of little peaches have been wrapped, and Shen Jiayue carefully sprays plant pigments on each package.

The small peaches that have been sprayed with pigment should be carefully placed in a baking tray lined with baking paper, and sent to the pastry department after one tray is enough, where they are baked in a large oven.

After wrapping all the little peaches, Lin Xu wiped his hands and said:

"Finally, it's wrapped. After this experience, it's more tiring than making cakes."

The reason why Chinese desserts are declining day by day is that there are too many manual procedures and too much experience. In the past, if an apprentice wants to become a master chef on his own, it takes ten years of hard work.

For Western-style dim sum, there is no such emphasis.

There are crash courses in cake training everywhere, and it takes one month to open a shop and two months to open a store, and even many chain franchisees provide training, promising to include education and meetings.

The same is dim sum, one side takes ten years, and the other side takes two to three months to complete quickly.

In such a comparison, Chinese dim sum naturally has little advantage.

"What's next?"

Shen Jiayue took the small watering can and sprayed it twice on the workbench, just like a hyperactive child, she couldn't rest at all.

Lin Xu confiscated the small watering can in her hand again, and reassigned some tasks:
"The next step is to make some adhesives, mash the steamed glutinous rice into a muddy shape, the more rotten the better, so that the big peaches can be glued together."

Shen Jiayue was stunned:

"Shall I do it?"

"Yeah, so you don't have to use up the coloring."

Shen Jiayue pouted, Niu Chuang went to the pastry department to dig out a bowl of steamed glutinous rice and brought it over. Lin Xu sprinkled some soft white sugar into it while it was hot, and put some custard powder for coloring.

Try to make the glutinous rice paste the same color as the big peach.

Shen Jiayue cleaned a small ceramic jar for dessert, wiped off the water, poured glutinous rice into it, and pounded it with a wooden mallet.

It was a bit reluctant at first, but once she felt the fun, it became more exciting.

Watching the glutinous rice balls inside turn into a sticky and stringy glutinous rice paste, and at the same time, the soft white sugar melts a little bit and is absorbed by these glutinous rice balls, making the glutinous rice even more sticky.

The whole process seemed very decompressed, and as the pounding deepened, the glutinous rice balls became smoother and smoother, which made Shen Jiayue feel like making glutinous rice cakes.

Hoho, I realized that making glutinous rice cakes is so easy.

When I turned around, I secretly took a VLOG about making glutinous rice cakes, so that netizens would not keep saying that I am not good at cooking.

At this moment, Lin Xu was explaining the essentials of making birthday peaches to Wei Qian. Shen Jiayue looked at him and asked:
"Xubao, can we just keep pushing Ciba like this?"

"There is no sugar in the glutinous rice cakes. If sugar is added, it will be easy to burn when fried. Usually, there will be some fillings inside."

Hoho, it's so simple, it seems that it's time for me, Chef Shen, to show my skills!

At this time, Lin Xu opened the oven for roasting big peaches. The bread had dried out and the surface had hardened. He carefully took it out and took off the stainless steel mold inside.

Once the dough is shaped, you have to take out the mold, otherwise the dough is not easy to bake through, and the stainless steel mold heats up faster, and it is always in a high temperature state, which will make the dough sticking to it.

After taking it off, put it in the oven and continue to bake at low temperature, so that the moisture of the dough is baked out as much as possible, which can effectively prevent the dough from softening and collapsing.

After Shen Jiayue finished making the glutinous rice paste, those little pink peaches were baked in the big oven in the pastry department.

When it was brought out of the oven, Ji Minghui, who was explaining the essentials of pastry to the help cooks, couldn't help turning his face away, and those help cooks also looked sideways, staring straight at these little peaches.

Wei Gan said with a smile:

"No man can refuse pink food, if there is, then another plate."

Zhu Yong glanced at him contemptuously:
"Is this being beaten to a pussy by Tian Tian?"

"Fuck off, you're a sissy, my Tiantian hasn't hit me for more than a month, don't talk nonsense..."

Before he finished speaking, he realized that there was something wrong with his words, and said:
"It's not beating, it's urging me to exercise. Do you know how it feels to have my abs for the first time in the past 20 years since I was born?"

Compared with the Diaoyutai period, Wei Qian has lost a lot of weight now, his fat face has become long, and his body has become healthy and well-proportioned.

Zhu Yong snorted:
"I also practice boxing every day, am I proud?"

Zhuang Yizhou ridiculed:

"Are you practicing boxing or being a punching bag?"

Zhu Yong blushed:
"The matter of the couple, can that be called being a punching bag? This is a sweet little punch, you don't understand... By the way, my uncle intends to let me take Lulu home, but I'm afraid that Lulu won't agree, so what should you do? ?”

Wei Gan and the others said in unison:

"Then give her a beating!"

Bringing the baked little birthday peaches to the small kitchen, Shen Jiayue came over drooling, these pink little cuties are so cute.

She took out her mobile phone and started shooting in the way of simulating a sliding rail.

When the filming was almost over, she saw a small peach stuffed with brown sugar and peanuts split open, and seeing the thick brown sugar flowing out of the cracked part, she couldn't help pinching it.

"This one seems to be cracked, I'll fix it."

After speaking, she took a sip of the cracked part, and the sweetness was delicious.

Then I tasted the skin of the small peaches, which was delicious and crispy, and also had a faint milky aroma, which was even better than I imagined.

"This peach is delicious, I think we can serve it in the store."

In the shop?

Lin Xu only thinks that this kind of traditional longevity peach has not many audiences, and he never thought about cashing it out.

But the proposal of the good boy made him think of another direction, that is - customized birthday banquet!
Selling it as a new dish in the store, this kind of longevity peach is naturally not acceptable. After all, it takes too long, and the customers probably leave before they are fully baked.

But it’s no problem to serve it on the table, even a high-end birthday banquet that includes the dishes directly.

As for birthday peaches, they can also be divided into three types: large size, extra large size, and extra large size. The number of small birthday peaches contained in them varies, and can be replaced according to the number of guests.

Thinking of this, he smiled and said:

"It's a good proposal. Let's warm it up in the customer group starting tomorrow to see if anyone likes it."

The leaves were already baked at this moment, Lin Xu took them out of the oven, found a super large plate with a diameter of two feet, and put the two leaves in it.

By the way, take out the green juice and spray another layer on the leaves while it is hot to increase the color.

After finishing these, the big peaches have also been baked. Take them out of the oven and place them carefully on the workbench, and then put the baked small peaches in one by one.

When arranging, be careful not to put some leaking fillings in, as that will make the small peaches all over the place, which will affect the appearance.

Shen Jiayue deliberately picked out the small peaches with exposed fillings, served them outside on a plate, and let Lao Suntou, Xiao Qingshuyun and others taste them.

The skin of the small peaches is crispy and soft, and different fillings have different flavors, which taste very delicious.

In the kitchen, Lin Xu put the small peaches into the big peaches as much as possible, spread a layer of glutinous rice paste evenly on the edge of the big peaches, then buckled the other half, squeezed carefully, using the stickiness of glutinous rice, Half-sized peaches are glued together.

When he was doing this, Qi Siming held a hair dryer and blew wind on the bonding place to speed up the bonding.

When the glutinous rice paste is a bit dry, carefully stand up the peaches and start to color them.

Use a watering can to start spraying the red juice over the surface of the peaches.

The water mist from the watering can is very delicate, and when sprayed on the peaches, it gives people a feeling of blurred colors, which looks very comfortable and has a strong sense of reality.

After the red juice was sprayed, the peaches were held in both hands and carefully placed on the big plate.

At this point, the entire Baizishou Tao is officially completed.

Although this dim sum is called Baizishou Tao, it can only hold dozens of peaches. If you want to reach a hundred, the diameter of the peaches is estimated to be more than [-] centimeters, or the small peaches must be made smaller.

But these are not necessary, this is just for fun, there is no need to really dig out the words.

Carrying the tray outside, Xiao Qing and Shu Yun immediately surrounded them, holding up their mobile phones and snapping pictures:

"Wow, so beautiful!"

"That's right, it's big and beautiful. It's much more grand than a three-tiered cake."

"It's a pity that it's too far away from my hometown, otherwise, when my grandma celebrates her birthday, I must order one."

"Come and help me take a photo. It's the first time I saw such a big peach. I have to keep it as a souvenir."

"..."

This will prevent the waiters and kitchen staff from being busy before dinner time. When the big peaches are ready, everyone gathers around and holds up their mobile phones to start shooting.

Some of the photos and short videos I took were sent to the fan group, some to the customer group, and some directly to the topic of Lin Kee Food.

The blind taxi driver who just drove to Miyun and others immediately sent a series of surprised expressions:
"I'm going, such a big peach, did you just make it?"

"It's awesome, we just arrived in Miyun, and before we had time to check in with the drug addict brother, Boss Lin actually played a new trick."

"I don't know how this peach is sold, I really want to try it."

"Me too, I want to try it, it feels very delicious."

In the store, after everyone finished taking pictures, Xiao Qing asked:
"Why do you eat this thing? Is it like smashing golden eggs in variety shows, smashing it directly?"

Lin Xu smiled and shook his head:

"There are many ways to eat it. If you are strong enough, you can break it open directly. Anyway, the peach is in two halves. You can also use a dessert knife to make a small cut from the side."

After speaking, he took a bread knife and drew a square on the birthday peach.

With a little more force, the noodle cake was removed, and the small peaches inside were completely exposed, and at the same time, there was a strong noodle fragrance wafting out.

After cutting it open, Lin Xu took out a small peach from the inside and brought it to his mouth to take a bite. It turned out to be stuffed with chocolate hazelnuts, and it was quite comfortable to eat.

Wei Gan took a dessert folder and took out the small peaches inside for everyone to taste:

"No matter who's birthday is today, I wish him a happy birthday first... The dough and leaves of the big peach can also be eaten. Don't waste it, eat them all. Let us know your opinion, and we will have new ones in our store when we come back."

As soon as they heard that it was new, the waiters became even more excited.

There is a new one in the store, which indicates that this dessert can be eaten frequently, which feels so beautiful when you think about it.

Lin Xu said:

"Only on the bag table, so that it can be prepared in advance."

After speaking, he said to Shu Yun who was eating small peaches stuffed with lotus paste:

"Let's go back and draw up birthday banquets of different grades based on birthday peaches, so that those customers who are not short of money but are too lazy to toss around at home can come to the store to celebrate their birthdays."

"Okay, I'll start making it later."

This kind of dish should pay attention to matching, but also pay attention to moral and health preservation.

After all, birthday banquets are usually for the elderly. If there are a bunch of spicy and spicy dishes that are not easy to chew, it will embarrass the birthday star.

After a little thought, Shu Yun came up with a countermeasure.

Because the table-packed dishes are custom-made, they can be prepared in advance, so the dishes are not very restricted, and basically all the dishes that Lin Xu will know can be served.

In fact, Shu Yun planned to come here as well.

Tai Chi chicken porridge, five-color chicken porridge, three sets of duck, female oil boat duck and other dishes are all ready to be listed.

Anyway, high-end food, naturally how to make money.

The price of such a table of dishes has already reached five figures. Although it looks quite expensive, for those who are not short of money, this amount of money is nothing compared to the happiness of the elderly.

After eating the birthday peaches, Qi Siming explained to Wei Gan a few more times, then packed some small birthday peaches, and drove to the Brilliant Building to find Zeng Xiaoqi.

Lin Xu ate a small peach, and tasted the leaves full of the fragrance of wheat seedlings. The crushed sesame seeds and peanuts inside tasted very good, and it was delicious to chew, which was very satisfying.

While eating, Shen Jiayue asked:

"Xubao, what are you going to eat with those willow ears we brought? I'm going to let my parents come to the store to taste and feel the taste of nature."

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"There are many ways to eat catkins. You can blanch it in cold salad like you eat at noon, you can also mix it with tofu, you can also eat it steamed, fried, made into buns, or even wrapped in batter and fried. tasty."

"Wow, can you make them all for me? I want to taste it... Unfortunately, it seems that there is no sale in the capital, so I can't eat it even if I want to."

Naturally, Lin Xu would not refuse such a request.

As for not being able to eat it in the capital, it doesn't matter. You can eat it when you go back to Yinzhou.

"Won't you be old by then?"

Lin Xu shook his head:
"It can be boiled like Sophora japonica and dried in the sun. It can be stored for a long time... Let's make what you brought today. If you like it, just ask Fang Hongyan to buy some later."

After speaking, he returned to the kitchen and began to prepare willow tassels.
