I work as a chef in the university cafeteria

Chapter 197 Spring is here, eat some spring rolls
After the official Douyin account of "Jiang Daqi Canteen" was opened, two notices were sent in succession, which was no less than two heavy bombs dropped among netizens.

In just two hours, hundreds of comments were left in the comment area:
"Register the ID number? It's just to book a box for dinner. Is this too much?"

"What is too much? Everyone has said that it is to prevent 'scalpers' from making trouble!"

"Now these 'scalpers' are really pervasive. They even think about buying and selling boxes when booking boxes. It's so annoying!"

"Last time, I heard people say that a local tyrant spent 5000 yuan just for the transfer fee in order to get a private room!"

"The local tyrants are still rich, envy!"

"..."

"Ahhh! I even set an alarm clock, planning to get up early tomorrow and call to grab a box, but the appointment was suspended!"

"Oh! I have to wait now, at least half a month!"

"It's only been open for two days, and the box has already been reserved for half a month. Tsk tsk tsk, how popular is this business?"

"I just run a restaurant. I will tell you that I can make an appointment every day, but often I don't receive a call for two or three days?"

"Upstairs, I laughed so hard! You should reflect on whether the food in your own restaurant is good or not. If you invite the chef from dining room No. [-], you will have cramps in your hands when counting the money!"

"..."

The comment area was extremely hot, and the number of followers on the account of "Jiang Daqi Canteen" also skyrocketed. In just these two hours, the number of netizens following it had reached more than one hundred thousand.

Among these netizens, only a very small number have eaten the food of Qicantang. After eating it once, they have become fans of Qicantang and strongly recommend the delicious food here to others.

More often, they are ordinary people who have no money or leisure. They simply love food. Although they don't have the chance to taste it, it is equivalent to eating it after seeing it.

Seeing other people enjoying and gobbling up, although it can't make the food in my bowl more delicious, but at least it can increase my appetite, so that I can eat a few more mouthfuls, can't I?

There are also some people who are ready to move. Once they have the opportunity, they will definitely come here without hesitation.

The fan-attracting ability of "Jiang Daqi Canteen" made Hua Xiaoling, who has been paying attention to it, extremely jealous.

She worked hard and exhausted all kinds of means, and it took so long for her Douyin account to have more than [-] followers.

Who knew that "Jiang Daqi Canteen" surpassed him in less than two hours.

Moreover, looking at the growing trend of this data, maybe in a day or two, it might break through 30.

This is an achievement that I didn't even dare to think about!

Hua Xiaoling thought about it, and suddenly raised her hand to cover her chest.

My heart really hurts!
……

Jiang Yu didn't pay much attention to the "Jiang Daqi Canteen" Douyin account at all.

For him, this is just a channel for restaurant information release, and it doesn't matter how many people pay attention.

Because Dining Room No. [-] caters to only a small number of customers.

Just kidding, there are only eight private rooms, even if they are full, you can only accommodate 10,000 people for a meal, so what's the use of tens of thousands of [-]+ people paying attention?

Because Jia Dequan brought a chef back from the kitchen on the first floor, so it was no longer just Lu Shuwu and Jiang Yu at night, and Xiao Jia also stayed in the chef to help.

I thought Xiao Jia was good at cooking, but unexpectedly, he is also good at making pasta.

When the three of them started working together, it was naturally much faster. Before ten o'clock at night, everyone stopped and went back to rest.

It was a rare time to sleep so early. Jiang Yu woke up naturally when he fell asleep. When he opened his eyes, it was only five o'clock in the morning.

The habit I have developed for more than half a year has formed a biological clock. I am afraid that I will not be a chef in the future, and I will not be able to change this habit of getting up early.

Jiang Yu lay on the warm blanket and took a deep breath, then sat up abruptly, quickly put on his clothes, went to the bathroom to wash up in a hurry, and then went downstairs to the kitchen on the first floor.

At this time, the kitchen was already brightly lit and steaming.

Lu Shuwu was sitting at the console, quickly wrapping soup dumplings.

His technique of making steamed buns has improved a lot. Not only are the soup dumplings the same size, but each one looks very delicate, just like a work of art.

Seeing Jiang Yu coming, he glanced up and said with a smile:

"Why don't you sleep a little longer? Now that Xiao Jia is here to help, we'll be busy. Besides, after a while, other people will also be here."

"I can't sleep, I wake up at five o'clock."

Jiang Yu was talking, when he turned his head and saw Xiao Jia was washing the rice and preparing to cook the porridge, he thought for a while and said,

"There are already several chefs who can cook breakfast in our cafeteria. After thinking about it, it's time to add some breakfast varieties."

"Huh? Add something?"

"It's a pity that we still lack a commercial soymilk machine. Otherwise, we can fry some delicious fritters to go with it, and many people will like it."

Jiang Yu shook his head, then smiled and said,

"Since we can't make soy milk fritters, let's make spring rolls, just as spring is here."

"Eating spring rolls to welcome the new year is quite suitable for this solar term."

Lu Shuwu nodded, and continued,

"However, spring pancakes have rolls inside, and whether the dish tastes good depends on the taste of the spring rolls.

Let me tell you the truth, I'm okay with making meat dishes, but I can't eat vegetarian dishes, especially this kind of non-vegetable dishes.

In order not to let the spring rolls go to the window but no one cares about them, boss, why don't you make some for me to demonstrate? "

"You just say you want to eat or not? You still talk a lot of nonsense!"

Jiang Yu glared at him, and said angrily,

"Let Xiao Jia make the soup dumplings, and you go make some noodles to make spring pancake skins. I'll go to the side dish room to see what dishes are available."

"okay!"

Lu Shuwu responded, patted the flour on his hands happily, and ran over to call Xiao Jia.

Jiang Yu came to the side dish room, looked around in the fresh-keeping cabinet, and picked out seven or eight kinds of vegetables, including red peppers, green peppers, cucumbers, carrots, potatoes, green onions, and coriander.

After washing these dishes, he cut them into thicker shreds.

The shredded cabbage can't be cut too thin, if it is too thin, it will easily become soft, let alone chewy, and it will become a rotten ball, then the spring rolls will be uneatable.

After cutting the vegetables, Jiang Yu took some ham and tenderloin, washed them and cut them into shreds.

After preparing the dishes, he took them all to the operation room, and started frying them with oil.

Spring rolls, also known as spring cakes, spring pans, and pancakes, are a traditional food in Chinese folk festivals. They are popular all over the country, especially in Jiangnan and other places.

It has a long history and evolved from ancient spring pancakes.

Spring pancakes are pancakes baked with flour, usually served with vegetables.

At the earliest, spring cakes and vegetables were put on a plate, which was called "spring plate".

The "Four Seasons Mirror" of the Tang Dynasty once recorded: "The solar eclipse of the beginning of spring [fú], spring pancakes, and lettuce is named spring plate."

From Song to Ming and Qing Dynasties, eating spring pancakes became popular day by day. People prepared side dishes or all kinds of stir-fried vegetables, and put them in the pancakes at will when eating spring pancakes.

Eating spring pancakes in the beginning of spring has a beautiful meaning among the folks to welcome the spring and pray for a good harvest.

The dishes rolled in spring pancakes are actually not difficult to make, as long as they are fried and seasoned well, the key is the preparation of the dipping sauce.

To put it bluntly, spring pancakes are somewhat similar to scallion roll pancakes in Shandong Province.

It’s just that the fillings in the scallion burritos are relatively simple, but the spring rolls have more vegetables, and then coated with a layer of secret sauce, the taste will be enriched with a “quack”.

The reason why Lu Shuwu asked Jiang Yu to cook it first was that he couldn't make a delicious sauce.

After the dishes were cooked, Jiang Yu looked back at Lu Shuwu, and saw that he had already cut all the wake-up dough into small balls and rolled them into round thin dough, so he said to him:

"Roll out a little more dough, and then divide it into two parts. One part is wrapped with vegetables and fried, and the other part is baked directly, and then coated with sauce and served with vegetables."

Lu Shuwu was taken aback: "It's so troublesome? Aren't the spring rolls all fried?"

"Frying is high in calories, and those girls probably wouldn't dare to eat it. Pancakes should be better. Boys don't care, as long as they are delicious."

"It's no wonder that every time I eat dinner, there are always girls saying that you are so heart-warming."

Lu Shuwu couldn't help laughing "hehehe", his face was like a chicken thief,
"Although you are no longer on the first floor, your legends are everywhere on the first floor!"

"You talk too much!"

Jiang Yu glared at him, then turned around and went into the side dish room, took a large jar and began to prepare the sauce.

This sauce will take a long time, and he doesn't have time to make it every day, so he might as well make more because the weather is cold now.

After a while, when he took out the prepared sauce, Ma Guoqiang, He Chunxiao and others all came.

In the kitchen, a group of people gathered around the operating table, making steamed buns, making steamed rolls, and they were so busy that they were in full swing.

Ma Guoqiang came earlier and had already baked a large pile of dough.

The dough is as thin as paper and white as snow, but the side that sticks to the bottom of the pot has a light burnt yellow color, exuding the smell of burnt flour, making a group of people who haven't had breakfast even hungrier.

"Boss, is the sauce ready?"

When Lu Shuwu saw Jiang Yu coming out with a big pot in his hands, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said embarrassedly,

"Well, everyone seems to be a little hungry, why don't we try these baked spring rolls first?"

Jiang Yu turned his head and saw a group of people staring at him eagerly, so he simply nodded, put the pot in his hand on the operating table, and said:

"Come on your own."

"Everyone, don't grab! I'll come first, I'll come first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that Ma Guoqiang had turned off the fire on the stove at some point.

He rushed to the front at once, reached out and picked up a piece of dough that was still warm, first spread some sauce that Jiang Yu had just made, then picked up some vegetables with chopsticks, put them into the dough and rolled them up.

As soon as the spring rolls were rolled, he couldn't wait to put them to his mouth, and bit down hard with a "owwow".

After chewing a few big mouthfuls, before Ma Guoqiang even had time to swallow the food in his mouth, he couldn't help shouting vaguely:

"These spring rolls are amazing. The skin is soft and firm, and the vegetables inside are tender and crispy. The key is the sauce, which is the soul of the spring rolls. Even if you don't put any vegetables, it's delicious when dipped in the sauce!"

The others were already very greedy, but after seeing Ma Guoqiang eating and hearing what he said, they couldn't help it anymore.

One counts as one, just like a cat smelling fishy smell, it rushed up...
