I work as a chef in the university cafeteria

Chapter 119 If you can't grab food, then be the feeder

At eight o'clock in the evening, in the kitchen of Seventh Canteen.

The chef and the part-time students had a slightly late dinner, cleaned up the kitchen and dining area, and then dispersed, leaving only Jiang Yu and Lu Shuwu busy with tomorrow's breakfast.

During this time, Hu Zhihai began to dig into the library again, and he would only come back for a meal at meal times. He still had to work hard for the postgraduate entrance examination in a few months.

"Do you want to make beef fried noodles for breakfast tomorrow?"

Lu Shuwu stood on the edge of the desk, while cutting the lotus root slices, he said,
"I see that the students like it very much. A large tray of fried rice noodles was brought out, and it was sold out in a short time."

The main reason why he still misses this fried rice noodles with beef is because it is so delicious.

Not to mention the soft and glutinous Q-balls of the rice noodles, the key is that they are fragrant and spicy, and the beef is also tender and delicious, even if you are sweating from eating, you can't bear to put it down.

It's a pity that there is only a small plate for each person, and the plate is empty just after eating it.

This makes people very uncomfortable!

It's as if you are watching a colorful movie, and you just got excited about watching it, but then the power goes out, who can bear it?
Therefore, Lu Shuwu felt a little bit uneasy all day long, thinking about eating again.

"Beef fried noodles?"

Jiang Yu was also busy cutting off the toenails of the duck's paw, and he would cook it in a pot later. He couldn't help being stunned for a moment when he heard Lu Shuwu's words, and then he realized it and asked with a smile,

"Why, haven't you eaten enough in the morning?"

"It's just such a small plate, it's gone in a few bites, how can you eat enough?"

"Okay, I'll do some more tomorrow."

Jiang Yu nodded and laughed.

That's a big deal, don't you just want to eat beef fried noodles?

arrangement!

The two of them were so busy that they didn't rest until after ten o'clock. Both Jiang Yu and Lu Shuwu were used to sleeping on the second floor of the cafeteria.

This is much closer than the dormitory and Hu Zhihai's place, the kitchen is just downstairs, at least I can sleep a little longer in the morning.

After taking a shower, Jiang Yu went back to the room and lay down, subconsciously sinking into his mind, preparing to bring up the virtual panel of the food system.

Since the last time the system function panel prompted to upgrade, the system has not responded anymore. He tried to mobilize the virtual panel, but there was no movement at all.

This made Jiang Yu a little flustered, maybe the system thought he was too weak and escaped under the pretext of "upgrading"?
If this is the case, he might not be the first male lead to be abandoned by the system since the system was born...

If this is known to other system owners, it will probably make people laugh to death!
Therefore, almost every day before going to bed, Jiang Yu would try to call the system, and then try to mobilize the virtual panel.

But after such a long time, the system has not responded to me once, and the virtual panel has not responded at all, as if it never existed.

He thought that the system would not respond this time, but what he didn't expect was that the virtual panel suddenly appeared!
Jiang Yu was suddenly excited. It seems that the system function panel has finally been upgraded successfully!

I just don't know, after this upgrade, what will be added on the function panel?

He took a deep breath and looked carefully.

Wealth value: 0
Current recipes: soup dumplings with chicken sauce, appetizing hot and sour soup, Sichuan-style saliva chicken, fish head with chopped pepper, steamed pork ribs with taro and black bean sauce, braised pork with preserved vegetables...

Cooking Level+: Advanced (26%)

"???"

After reading it back and forth three times, Jiang Yu couldn't help but three question marks slowly appeared in his head.

It took so much effort and hard work for more than half a month to upgrade, that's it? ? ?
There are still only three items: wealth value, existing recipes and culinary skill level, nothing has changed!

What's even more exasperating is that he did clear the wealth points before the upgrade, but what about the accumulated wealth points during the upgrade?

Just disappeared out of thin air?
I fell!

After calming down for a while, Jiang Yu always felt that something was wrong, and stared at the system panel carefully again. This time, he finally found something different, that is, there was a small difference behind the culinary level. The conspicuous "+" sign.

what does this mean?
He stretched out his finger and tried to click on the "+" sign. There was a change in front of his eyes. The item of culinary skill level was instantly expanded, and a row of small items appeared:

Knife Skills: Advanced (27%)

Feeding Technology: Advanced (12%)

Sizing and hanging paste: Intermediate (46%)

Heat Control: Advanced (32%)

Thicken Gorgon Juice: Intermediate (74%)

Seasoning Technology: Advanced (41%)

Spooning: Intermediate (39%)

Spot raw material processing: Intermediate (84%)

Looking at this row of cooking skills, Jiang Yu was a little dumbfounded.

This upgrade has raised such a thing?
……

When Jiang Yu woke up at four o'clock in the morning the next day, his mind was still a little hazy.

He habitually got up from the bed. After putting on his clothes and shoes, he went out to the bathroom to soak in water, and then began to wash and brush his teeth.

After washing his face well with cold water, he slowly regained consciousness.

Last night, after studying the newly upgraded function panel of the system for a long time, he finally understood the meaning of the small items that appeared after clicking on the "cooking level".

Those small items, such as knife skills, feeding techniques, sizing and pasting, are actually the eight basic cooking skills that chefs must master.

Although Jiang Yu's overall culinary skills have reached an advanced level, it does not mean that every basic skill he has mastered has reached an advanced level.

For example, sizing and hanging paste, thickening and pouring juice, turning spoons and serving dishes, judging from the grades displayed on the upgraded function panel, they are only at the "intermediate" level.

After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Yu can probably understand it, because he seldom uses such things as grazing paste, thickening sauce and sauce in the actual cooking process. Most of the dishes in the kitchen are quick-hand dishes. It is rare to cook dishes that require sizing, thickening and splashing juice.

There are fewer dishes of this type, and it is reasonable to increase the level slowly.

Compared with the dishes that need to be thickened and splashed with sauce, Jiang Yu has made a little more dishes, such as the hot and sour soup when he opened the second canteen, and the "Sister Song Fish Soup" for Liu Shurong's mother and son. "In fact, they all use thickening and splashing juice.

As for the starched and battered dishes, they generally need to be deep-fried. So far, Jiang Yu seems to have only cooked one, and that is "Longjing Shrimp".

It is precisely because it has been done a little more, so although the thickening and splashing juice is at an intermediate level, its progress bar has reached 74%, which is much higher than the 46% of the sizing and hanging paste.

As for flipping the spoon...

How to turn the big pot of vegetables in the cafeteria with a spoon, a pot of vegetables weighs dozens of catties, no matter how hard you try, you can't turn the spoon, so you have to turn it with a shovel.

In addition to not being able to turn over the spoon, there is no such thing as a plate for the big pot dishes served in stainless steel trays.

Therefore, Jiang Yu's mastery of flipping spoons is not much higher.

After the system function panel was upgraded, Jiang Yu's various shortcomings in cooking skills were clear at a glance, and a chef's progress required a relatively high level in all aspects, not to mention that these eight major items were only basic skills.

Therefore, if he wants to improve his cooking skills, he still has to work hard!

After thinking about this, Jiang Yu took a deep breath, wrung out the towel and hung it up, then left the bathroom door, went downstairs and went back to the kitchen to continue working.

There is no rush to improve your cooking skills, you have to take your time, but the breakfast in the cafeteria has to be prepared quickly.

……

The older you get, the less sleep you get.

Jia Dequan is like this. After dinner, he takes a walk for a while, then goes back to take a shower and watch TV, and goes to bed before 09:30. When he wakes up, the sky outside the window has just dawned.

In fact, if he lay down again, he would not be able to fall asleep, but would still feel uncomfortable all over. Jia Dequan simply got up, and after washing up, he came to the campus of Jiangzhou University and started to stroll slowly.

After going back last night, he kept thinking about that question:

What kind of method can I use to get new dishes without queuing up with those students?
He kept thinking that he was about to fall asleep, so he found a good way:

When I was at home before, my little grandson kept yelling "If you can't beat it, then join." Although he didn't understand what it meant, it didn't prevent him from using it.

If you can't grab the food, then be the feeder!
Now that I want to eat new dishes and don't want to compete with the students, why don't I just become "a member of the kitchen"?
I have become a "member of the kitchen", so is there still a need to grab it?

It's not about eating whatever you want, but as much as you want!
Thinking of this, Jia Dequan was so excited that he almost didn't fall asleep all night.

He didn't worry at all that he would be refused to "join", just relying on his ability, let alone a school cafeteria, as long as he let the wind out and said that he planned to "return to the rivers and lakes", those famous restaurant and restaurant owners would immediately join him. Will rush over to hire myself with a high salary...

When he walked around in circles to the Seventh Canteen, it was already dawn, and there were not many people queuing up at this moment.

Jia Dequan couldn't help but smiled smugly, these little bastards finally came earlier than me, why, can't they wake up after sleeping late in the morning?
We old people have nothing else to do but sleep less!

As time passed, more and more students lined up, and the originally quiet dining hall of No. [-] became noisy and lively again.

At seven o'clock, the canteen officially opened for business.

Jia Dequan didn't eat much in the morning. After ordering a basket of "long-standing famous" soup dumplings among the students and a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, he sat in the corner and ate slowly.

Picking up the chopsticks, he picked up a fragrant soup dumpling, brought it to his mouth, took a small bite, and then sucked it hard...

Jia Dequan's heart was shocked suddenly, and he was stunned for a long time. It took a long time to react, and he quickly ate with big mouthfuls.

At this moment, he is more determined in his heart, he must join the Seventh Canteen and become a "member of the kitchen"!
