I work as a chef in the university cafeteria

Chapter 16 Elementary Cooking
"Okay, all the girls have recommended themselves."

Hu Zhihai pushed an empty steamer to the side, and brought another one to continue eating. He said with a smile,

"I said before that I was going to send out a recruitment notice, but the waiter came by himself. This is great, and even the printing fee is saved."

"It's not hard to find waiters. There are still some students who want to work and study."

Jiang Yu also sat down, picked up his chopsticks and began to eat with big mouthfuls. He said while eating,
"The ones who need to worry about now are skilled workers who make buns. It's not easy to find them."

Hu Zhihai shook his head: "What's the rush? Take your time."

After the meal was full, whether it was dinner or supper, the two of them hastily cleaned up the things in the store, and then closed the door, ready to go back to rest.

Jiang Yu didn't go back to the school dormitory, but planned to stay with Hu Zhihai for one night.

The school's dormitory building is locked every night, and it will not be opened until six o'clock the next morning.

Tonight, Jiang Yu has used up all the ingredients he bought before, and he has to rush to the vegetable market at three or four o'clock tomorrow morning to buy another batch. If he goes late, he can't buy fresh ingredients. It's the same thing, when I get back, it's basically too late to make the steamed stuffed buns for breakfast.

The most important thing is that tomorrow is the day for freshmen to register, and there must be more people coming to the cafeteria to eat than today.

If he doesn't prepare well, his buns will be sold out before the meal time is over.

The house that Hu Zhihai rented was across the road from the side entrance of the school. It was an old community not far away.

On the way back, Hu Zhihai suddenly remembered something, and asked with a smile:

"By the way, you don't know yet, do you? Guess who won the bet on the campus forum that I mentioned to you earlier?"

"The bet you're talking about is the one betting on whether the soup dumplings are good or not?"

Jiang Yu was as busy as a spinning top all day long, so how could he have time to care about these things? He thought for a while before he remembered that there was such a thing, and asked tentatively,

"The landlord who posted the post won?"

"Yes, they randomly selected 10 people from the people who responded to the post to try it, and the 10 people voted by secret ballot, they all agreed that our soup dumpling is delicious, and it is the best food they have ever eaten in their lives. "

Hu Zhihai had a bright face and seemed very happy.
"The funniest thing is that Zhu Youfeng, the student who initially accused the poster of bragging, thinking that the most delicious soup dumplings are in his hometown in the north. During dinner, he ate two baskets of soup dumplings in one go!"

"Really? That's really interesting."

Jiang Yu also felt very happy. It is indeed a very happy thing that the soup dumplings he made are liked by others, which shows that his hard work has not been in vain.

"Yeah, I feel that this day is more interesting than the previous three years of college life. Although I am a little tired, I am full of energy!"

Hu Zhihai smiled "hehe", as if he remembered something, and said suddenly, "By the way, Lao Jiang, I have something to tell you."

"Ok?"

"When we opened tonight, some students complained that we didn't even have anything to drink in the store. Although there was soup in the soup dumplings, they still felt a bit dry after eating."

Hu Zhihai frowned, and said seriously,

"Do you think we should contact the beverage supplier tomorrow and ask them to deliver some drinks?"

"There is no shortage of beverages in the cafeteria, not to mention beverages, there are milk, freshly squeezed juices, etc. If you really feel dry mouth, just walk a few more steps and buy it next door."

Jiang Yu thought for a while, but shook his head and refused. He said,
"We either don't sell drinks at all, or we sell something different from other stores."

"It's different from other stores? What's that?"

"I don't know yet, let's talk about it tomorrow."

"..."

After returning to the residence, the two of them cleaned up a bit, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

After working all day, although he was still a little excited, his body was already exhausted. After Hu Zhihai lay down on the bed, he fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow.

Jiang Yu in the guest room was not yet sleepy. He was sitting on the chair in front of the window, impatiently bringing up the virtual panel of the system.

Wealth value: 2670
Current recipe: Soup dumplings filled with chicken juice
Cooking Level: Elementary (12%)

……

Looking at the row of words that suddenly appeared on the panel, Jiang Yu was a little dazed.

Previously there was only "wealth value" on the panel, but now there are "existing recipes" and "cooking skill level". Could it be that the system has been upgraded silently?

The previous one is easier to understand. Those recipes that have not been redeemed in the system mall probably do not belong to the "existing recipes".

The latter item "cooking level" is a bit confusing. Jiang Yu thought that the food system only had the function of exchanging recipes and recipes, but he didn't expect to be able to grade cooking skills.

According to Jiang Yu's own understanding, this "junior" cooking level probably refers to his own cooking skills.

It's right to think about it. Although Jiang Yu often cooked when he was in his hometown, it is unrealistic to say how good his cooking skills are. But it's far from it. Being rated as "junior" by the system may be overestimated.

But this basic cooking skill, coupled with the recipes and recipes provided by the system, can make amazing food for diners.

But a real delicacy has all the colors, aromas, and flavors. Jiang Yu's cooking skills are not enough. Relying on the recipes and formulas provided by the system, he can probably only achieve good aroma and taste, and the color is much worse.

The soup dumplings he sells today are just pasta after all, and the requirements for "color" are not as high as those of traditional dishes. As long as the appearance looks clear and the texture is well-proportioned, it will not affect the taste of diners.

To achieve this, Jiang Yu did not achieve it overnight, he also achieved it after a lot of practice.

As for other dishes, the requirements are even higher.

It is probably because of this that the system added the item of "cooking skill level", perhaps it is also hope that Jiang Yu will work hard to improve his cooking skills.

With the improvement of cooking skills, coupled with the recipes and formulas provided by the system, wouldn't the food made out be more delicious?
As for the 12% in the brackets, if you guessed correctly, there is a high probability that it is the percentage of the upgrade progress.

It can be seen from this that Jiang Yu still has a long way to go from intermediate cooking skills.

But with an intuitive upgrade progress percentage, it is much better than being blinded. After all, he can really see that he is making continuous progress every day when he opens his eyes. What could be more exciting than this?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yu instantly felt energetic all over his body.

Now that he has opened a shop, he will probably be a chef in the future. As a chef, he certainly hopes that his cooking skills will get better and better, so that he can make more delicious food. .

The best way for a person to live is to make himself happy, make others feel comfortable, and make his family feel at ease.

Jiang Yu's biggest wish now is to take over his elderly grandma to enjoy her old age after all the foreign debts are paid off. He has no ambitions. As long as his grandma lives healthy and healthy, he can be happy every day , then this life will be worth it.

As for foreign objects such as money and fame, they are actually incidental.
