I work as a chef in the university cafeteria

Early the next morning, before Father Sun went up the mountain, Vice Principal He drove from his home to the school.

He used to come here every day around eight o'clock, and he started to go to work when he got to the office.

But today is a bit different. He promised Professor Hans yesterday that he would go to the Seventh Canteen to eat soup dumplings with him, so naturally he had to come early.

Vice President He has heard about it for a long time. The breakfast in the Seventh Canteen is different from other canteens. Even if you go there at nine o'clock in the morning in other canteens, you can still buy the breakfast you want, but if you go to the Seventh Canteen late , I'm afraid I can't even eat porridge.

As for the soup dumpling, it is one of the fastest-selling breakfasts. It is said that the Seventh Canteen sells hundreds of baskets of soup dumpling alone every morning. Just hearing about it makes people feel incredible.

But it can also be seen from here that this soup dumpling is really delicious.

After all, not everyone will do big wrongs.

Thinking of this, Vice President He stepped on the gas pedal unconsciously. After the car turned into the school gate, it drove straight to the staff dormitory area on the right, and soon arrived at a newly built 28-story high-rise building. stopped before.

Afterwards, Vice President He took out his mobile phone, called Professor Hans, and sat in the car to wait quietly.

Not long after, the tall, white-haired Professor Hans went downstairs energetically. He stood downstairs and looked around, and soon saw Vice President He who was sitting in the car waving and smiling at him. Immediately walked over quickly with a smile on his face.

"Hi! Principal He, good morning! The morning in Jiangzhou is so beautiful, the air is full of sweetness, oh, I think I have fallen in love with this place deeply!"

While talking, Professor Hans stretched out his hand to open the door of the passenger seat, and sat on it carefully.

"Professor Hans, Jiangzhou is not only beautiful in the morning, but the air is also good. Jiangzhou is beautiful 24 hours a day. After you stay here for a long time, you will definitely find it."

Vice-principal He smiled at him, started the car slowly, and drove in the direction of No. [-] canteen.

As he drove the car, he said with a smile,

"Professor Hans, the breakfast in the Seventh Canteen is very rich, and you will have to choose carefully later."

Professor Hans smiled and said, "Of course, I can't wait."

It would still take a while to walk from the staff dormitory area to the No. [-] canteen, but it was very fast by car. The two of them didn't chat a few words before the car stopped in the open space in front of the No. [-] canteen.

At this moment, the cafeteria has not yet opened for business, but there is already a long queue in front of the door. Vice President He couldn't help being stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

Obviously, he never expected to have such a long queue for a meal.

Professor Hans standing beside him said with a smile:

"Principal He, don't be surprised. Seventh Canteen is like this. Who wouldn't want to eat delicious food earlier?"

"Ah, yes, yes, Professor Hans is right!"

Vice-principal He was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to his senses, nodding and laughing again and again,
"There are so many people in the Seventh Canteen, and the students are all greedy for the food made by Jiang Yu!"

After saying this, Vice Principal He began to feel embarrassed again.

As a vice-principal, it's somewhat embarrassing to ask him to line up with these people to grab food, but if he didn't line up, then why did he bring Professor Hans here so early?
"Can I go directly to Jiang Yu and ask him to help arrange it?"

Vice-principal He was thinking about it, and when he was hesitating whether to do this, Professor Hans on the side spoke again:

"Principal He, let's go in, there seems to be a special window for faculty and staff in the cafeteria..."

Vice President He was taken aback again: "Professor Hans, you, how do you know?"

"Oh, I heard it from others, but I don't know if it exists, but we can take a look first, can't we?"

Professor Hans shrugged and spread his hands, pretending to be innocent.

"Alright then, let's take a look first."

Vice-principal He suddenly felt very embarrassed. As the vice-principal of a school, he didn't know as much about the cafeteria in the school as a foreigner.
The two entered the cafeteria one after the other. Vice President He walked to the window and glanced at it casually. He easily saw a sign with the words "Special Window for Faculty and Staff" pasted on the side of window No. [-]. .

Vice President He: "..."

It turns out that there really is a "dedicated window for faculty and staff", which is really embarrassing.

Fortunately, before he had time to embarrass himself, Seven Canteens had already opened for business.

All of a sudden, the whole cafeteria became full of people, just like the vegetable market at three or four in the morning, very lively.

After all, there were only a small number of faculty and staff who came to the No. [-] cafeteria to have breakfast. Vice President He and Professor Hans followed each other and quickly bought their respective breakfasts.

The two came to the dining area with their breakfast, found a quieter corner and sat down, each breathing a sigh of relief.

The breakfasts ordered by the two people were similar, each with a cage of soup dumplings and a serving of porridge. The difference was that Vice President He ordered porridge with preserved egg and lean meat, while Professor Hans ordered porridge with mushrooms and vegetables.

Vice-principal He smiled at Professor Hans, picked up the chopsticks for a gesture, and said:

"Professor Hans, let's eat!"

"it is good!"

Professor Hans also smiled, picked up the spoon and stirred the porridge in the bowl lightly to let it cool down faster, after a while, he took a spoonful of the porridge, took a sip carefully, with a look on his face Sighed contentedly:

"This porridge is really delicious, soft and sticky, so delicious!"

As soon as he finished saying this, Vice Principal He who was sitting across from him suddenly let out an exclamation of "Ouch", and quickly raised his head and looked over.

Seeing this, Professor Hans almost couldn't help laughing.

I saw Vice Principal He's face and clothes splashed with the soup from the soup dumpling, and a strong fresh fragrance was slowly emanating from him.

Professor Hans quickly took out a tissue from his pocket, took out one and handed it over, suppressing a smile and saying:

"Oh, my God! How could you be so careless? Don't you know that there is a lot of soup in the soup dumpling?"

This time, Vice President He really died.

He wanted to cry, but he took the paper towel handed by Professor Hans and wiped the soup on his face and clothes, and said with a bitter face:
"Professor Hans, just tell me the truth. You should have eaten steamed buns when you came for an exchange visit last time, right?"

"Huh? Really? Maybe, I can't remember clearly."

Professor Hans suppressed a smile and replied, that's right, in fact, when he came last time, he had already had breakfast in Canteen No.

A group of people all ate their stomachs full!
After a pause, he sighed again and said,

"But, you know, when I first came to school, it was so lonely having breakfast alone.

So, yesterday, Principal He said that he would come to have breakfast with me, so I naturally wished for it.

But I really didn't expect that you haven't eaten the soup dumpling from Seven Canteens..."

Vice President He: "..."

I don't even know how to answer this!
So blame me? !

……

Seven canteens, the kitchen on the first floor.

Early this morning, Jiang Yu got up and came here. After helping Lu Shuwu and the others prepare breakfast for a while, he started busy with other things alone.

Last time, Lu Shuwu had already used up the peach blossoms he picked during his outing in the outskirts of Jiangzhou. The peach blossom sauce made with these peach blossoms was also used to make peach blossom layer cakes.

As for the peach blossom mille-feuille shortbread, the staff in the cafeteria shared a share, and then sold it to the students at the window to taste, and it had already been used up.

Now that we want to prepare "fan benefits" for the diners who pay attention to and support "Jiang Daqi Canteen", we naturally have to make some peach blossom mille-feuille pastries again.

There is no need to worry about the fresh peach blossoms used to make peach blossom sauce, and there is no need to go all the way to the Peach Blossom Villa to buy and pick them like Lu Shuwu did last time.

Fresh and edible peach blossoms were already available for sale. Jiang Yu just called Boss Zhao at the Fresh Food Center, and the other party immediately agreed, promising to help Jiang Yu purchase a sufficient amount of fresh and edible peach blossoms.

When delivering the ingredients in the early morning, Boss Zhao also sent over the fresh peach blossoms he purchased. Once Jiang Yu got the peach blossoms, he didn't delay for a moment. He cleaned the peach blossoms first, and then started making peach blossom sauce. .

After He Chunxiao made the steamed buns and steamed buns for breakfast, Jiang Yu worked with her again to make water oil skin and puff pastry.

As for Ma Guoqiang, he was still busy making Jiangzhou mixed noodles in front of the window, so naturally he couldn't spare time to help Jiang Yu make peach blossom shortbread.

"Boss, I'm going to make so many peach blossom shortbread this time, can you save some more for me then?"

After Lu Shuwu finished his breakfast, he also came over to help make the peach blossom shortbread. He said with a stern face,
"The few I gave to me last time, I gave to my little sister, but this girl seems to be addicted to eating, and she came to me again these two days for..."

Jiang Yu turned his head and glanced at him, continued to be busy with the work in hand, and said with a smile:

"Then make a few more yourself, and then you can tell your sister that you did it yourself."

Lu Shuwu smiled and said, "Hey, that's a good idea."

"Xiao Jiang, don't make all the peach blossom shortcakes?"

At this time, Jia Dequan also came over and suggested with a smile,

"Although the stuffed peach blossoms are delicious, they are sweets after all, and most boys don't like them very much. Why don't you make some stuffed vegetables and meat, which are fragrant and delicious, what do you think?"

Hu Zhihai, who was holding a large bowl of Jiangzhou Mixed Rice Noodles, was "sighing" and poked his head out from the side, nodded repeatedly and said:

"Yes, yes, Lao Jiang, I can eat some preserved vegetables and braised pork!"

"Why can't you eat it? You can even eat spicy noodles!"

Jiang Yu glared at him, and said with a look of disgust,

"Go, go, go! Don't make trouble here, and go to your fans!"

Hu Zhihai wasn't afraid of Jiang Yu either, he smiled "hehe", walked to the side and sat down, and continued to talk about his fans.

During this period of time, Lao Hu was still very attentive. He hid in the library every day and studied carefully, preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination again at the end of the year. wandered around.

He knew very well that now Jiang Yu not only opened a canteen and restaurant, but also will continue to study for graduate school in the second half of the year.

If he doesn't work harder and strive to be admitted to the graduate school of this school, then not only will he not be able to eat Jiang Yu's food, but the gap with Jiang Yu will only widen in the future.

So, as soon as the semester started, he made up his mind and got into the books with all his heart.

Jiang Yu naturally noticed Hu Zhihai's efforts. Since this semester, even if something happened in the cafeteria, he didn't ask Hu Zhihai for help, just because he didn't want to disturb his review for the postgraduate entrance examination.

Hearing that everyone was suggesting that we should make some crispy pancakes with preserved vegetables and braised meat, Jiang Yu thought for a while and nodded in agreement. He said with a smile:

"Since everyone likes stuffed vegetables with meat, let's make some more in the afternoon. It's not difficult anyway."

The most important thing, of course, is to make it without worrying about it being wasted. The food he cooks will never be enough to sell, and there is never enough to sell.

After Jiang Yu, Lu Shuwu, He Chunxiao and others had been busy for a while, Ma Guoqiang also sold out Jiangzhou Mixed Rice Noodles and came back.

He rested for a while, had some breakfast, and came over to help make peach shortbread.

If several people work together, the speed of making it will be much faster. Before eleven o'clock, several people have already made hundreds of peach blossom shortcakes.

"Let's make these first for the time being. Put the unfinished water-oil skin and puff pastry in a fresh-keeping bag and put it in the fresh-keeping cabinet. After lunch, we will finish it."

Seeing that the time was almost up, Jiang Yu stood up from his seat, wiped his hands and said:

"These peach blossom shortcakes are finished, old man, please work harder, separate them and put them in the oven to start baking, if you can't do it alone, find someone to help you.

I have to go back to the second floor to cook. There are still four guests in the box at noon. "

"Okay, go back and get busy. There are a few of us here. I promise you won't miss anything."

Ma Guoqiang smiled at Jiang Yu and responded.

Jiang Yu nodded, didn't say anything more, turned around and went back to dining room No. [-] on the second floor.

The reason why he dared to stay on the first floor until so late before going upstairs was because he had confidence. Now that Du Guangning could make most of the cold dishes by himself, Jiang Yu didn't have to worry.

As for those complicated dishes, Du Guangning can also prepare them in advance, and it will be OK when Jiang Yu goes back to process them again.

Compared with before, with the assistance of Du Guangning, Pei Guofu and others, Jiang Yu is now more than a little easier.

After returning upstairs, Jiang Yu led Du Guangning and the others to operate like a tiger, and quickly fed the guests in the four private rooms to their full, and left with rosy faces and satisfaction.

After feeding the diners, Jiang Yu casually cooked a few more dishes, and when he greeted Du Guangning, Yan Tongtong and others to prepare for dinner, Hua Xiaoling appeared on time.

While sniffing the aroma of the vegetables, she hurried towards the kitchen, shouting loudly:

"Oh! Everyone, don't rush to eat, wait for me!"

Not to mention, this little girl's speed is quite fast, she has already entered the kitchen in just one sentence.

Before she had time to catch her breath, Hua Xiaoling hurried to the sink to wash her hands, then took a pair of clean bowls and chopsticks, filled herself with a bowl of steaming and fragrant rice, and sat down In front of the operating table, he stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, and began to eat with big mouthfuls.

"Did you deliberately not eat at home, and came here to grab a meal?"

Jiang Yu looked up at Hua Xiaoling, who was devouring the food without any regard for her appearance, couldn't help laughing, and said,
"Look at your eating appearance, even a homeless man who has been hungry for three or four days is not as fierce as you!"

"Boss, what you said is so heartless!"

Hua Xiaoling stuffed a piece of fat and thin braised pork into her mouth, and said vaguely while chewing,

"Do you know how hard I am today?
In order to eat your meal, I got up at eight o'clock in the morning, and went to the logistics center to pick up the batch of peach blossom cake gift boxes purchased online...

If it weren't for the fear of delaying your important event, I wouldn't be so tired! "

After saying this, she couldn't help but rolled her eyes, and "hummed" twice with a proud face.

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Have all the cake boxes been delivered?"

"That's right, I'm all out, can this matter be settled?"

Hua Xiaoling looked smug.

"Okay, let's eat quickly. After dinner, I have to go downstairs to make peach blossom shortbread."

Jiang Yu quickly took a few mouthfuls of rice, then turned his head to look at Yan Tongtong and the others, and ordered,

"Xiaoyan, after you finish packing up the boxes, dishes, etc., I will come down to help you."

"oh oh."

Yan Tongtong and the others quickly nodded and responded.

Jiang Yu didn't say anything more, he ate up the rice in two or three strokes, put the bowls and chopsticks in his hand on the operating table, took another tissue to wipe his mouth, got up and went downstairs.

When they arrived downstairs, Lu Shuwu, He Chunxiao and others had already had lunch, and they were sitting in front of the console, continuing to make peach blossom cakes.

Seeing Jiang Yu coming down, Ma Guoqiang hurried up to meet him, and said with a smile:

"Boss, more than half of the peach blossom shortbread in the morning has been baked, and there are still some left to be baked. Would you like to take a look first?"

"No, it wasn't you, Uncle Ma, who baked it last time. I still can't believe your level?"

Jiang Yu waved his hand and said with a smile,

"I'll make some diced meat with preserved vegetables first. Didn't everyone say they like shortbread stuffed with preserved vegetables and meat? Today, let's make more."

"it is good."

When Ma Guoqiang heard this, his eyebrows danced brightly. Even the wrinkles on his face were filled with smiles.

"Compared to sweets like peach blossom shortbread, we men still prefer salty food like pickled pork shortbread with preserved vegetables.

Moreover, the pickled meat with pickled vegetables is delicious, especially if you cook it, the boss. If you take a bite of this, it will be so delicious that you will swallow your tongue?

Then boss, you go to work, and I will also help to make the peach blossom shortbread. "

"Okay, you go."

Jiang Yu nodded, turned around and came to the side dish room.

After entering the side dish room, he first brought a large stainless steel basin and filled it with water, washed the dried plums to be used to remove the salt, then soaked them in the basin, and then soaked the dried shiitake mushrooms in the water.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Yu picked a few large pieces of fresh pork belly with three fat and seven thin layers from the fresh-keeping cabinet. First, he peeled the pork belly, blanched it, and then cut them into small cubes of 1 cm square.

Afterwards, he also diced prunes, soaked shiitake mushrooms, and garlic cloves.

After finishing these, Jiang Yu brought all the prepared ingredients such as diced meat, diced mushrooms, and dried plums to the operating room, ready to start cooking.

Heat the oil in a pan, and when the oil is hot, Jiang Yu puts in the garlic and sautes until fragrant, then puts the diced meat in and stir-fries, then pours cooking wine, light soy sauce, oyster sauce around the side of the pot, and then adds salt and other seasonings Finally, add diced mushrooms and dried plums in turn.

After stirring the ingredients in the pot evenly, Jiang Yu added an appropriate amount of sugar to enhance the flavor, and finally poured in an appropriate amount of dark soy sauce and water, covered the pot and simmered over low heat.

When the water in the pot gradually dries up, Jiang Yu then puts in an appropriate amount of pepper and chicken essence to taste, and stir-fries evenly until the water is dry, then puts it on a plate.

Before the big pot of dried plums and diced meat was cooked, a strong aroma of dried plums permeated every corner of the kitchen. Although Lu Shuwu, Ma Guoqiang and others had eaten lunch, after smelling the aroma, , still couldn't help swallowing.

Not to mention them, even Judd Quan, who was resting in the small box outside the kitchen, smelled the smell, and hurried in, his face full of doubts:
"Didn't you have lunch? Who is still cooking here now? I smell the aroma of pickled vegetables and pork, it smells so good!"

"Where's the pickled pork with pickled vegetables?"

Jiang Yu cleaned up the cauldron where he had just finished frying, looked back at him with a smile, shook his head and said,

"Isn't this the morning when you said you were going to make shortbread stuffed with vegetables and meat?
I just fried diced prunes and vegetables, and I'll use them as fillings in a while. Let's work hard today to try to use up all the fillings. "

"Stir-fried diced meat with dried plums and vegetables? No, you added dried shiitake mushrooms, right?"

Jia Dequan leaned forward and sniffed it carefully, his eyes suddenly lit up, and asked,

"Otherwise, dried prunes alone would not be so fragrant, it's so fragrant that people can't help but want to drool!"

"Well, dried shiitake mushrooms were added."

Jiang Yu nodded, couldn't help but look at him more, and joked,
"Your old man's nose is really easy to use. You don't even need to look at what ingredients are used to cook a dish, you just smell it.

Your nose belongs to a dog, right? "

"Go, go, go! Not big or small!"

Jia Dequan glared at Jiang Yu, and then said,
"My nose has been cultivated in the kitchen for so many decades. If I can't even distinguish the taste of the ingredients, why keep it? Is it really only used to breathe?"

After a pause, the expression on his face suddenly changed, even the wrinkles turned into flowers with a smile,

"That little Jiang, you made such a big pot of dried plums and vegetables and fried diced meat, surely you won't be able to use it up?

How about we save a little bit for dinner? "
