Chapter 867 Xiang wakes up?
It was four o'clock in the morning, and many people had already entered deep sleep. Those who entered sleep mode early felt that their dreams tonight were particularly sweet.

I haven’t had a dream in a long time!

It’s been a long time since I tasted delicious food in my dreams!

I haven’t tasted something so delicious in a long time!
Those who fell asleep now feel a kind of happiness, but for those who stay up late, it is a kind of suffering now.

"Oh my gosh, where is this fragrance coming from? It smells so good. Just smelling it makes me feel hungry."

"Has the chef already started cooking? Isn't it a little too early?"

"It's amazing. I heard before that the chef invited to cook this time is very powerful, and now it looks really awesome!"

"It's so fragrant. I don't know what delicious food they are making. It's a pity that only the invited guests can eat it tomorrow!"

"I heard that every dish is expensive, and it seems to make sense. This is the first time I asked for such a fragrant smell. It smells so good, and I feel that my rhinitis has been cured!"

At this time, the jar meat has just started to be made, and the fragrance has only spread in the manor, but it has already begun to make so many "night owls" feel its extraordinaryness for the first time.

Six jars are neatly placed in the open space outside the kitchen. There are more than a dozen temporary stoves set up here. In addition to six used to simmer the jar meat, the rest are reserved for subsequent use, such as steaming and collecting juice. deal with.

Chu Yunfeng was also very fortunate that dishes like Jar Pork could take longer to prepare, because the last step of steaming could be adjusted at any time.

In other words, this last step of steaming can be done before serving, so making it in advance will not affect the quality of the dish.

If you change other dishes so long in advance, the quality will be greatly affected when the dishes are served at noon.

However, there is nothing that can be done about it. If you want to create a sensational effect, you can only plan it in advance at this point in time, otherwise you will definitely not have enough time.

This is also to meet the princess's time requirements. The original plan was to have dinner in the evening, so that I would have more time to cook.

However, the customs and beliefs in Thailand require the princess to go to the temple to offer incense today. In addition, many guests are pressed for time and need to return on the same day. Naturally, the banquet cannot be held in the evening.

Moreover, it is not good to go to the temple to offer incense at night, so the banquet time can only be held at noon, so that the princess can go to the temple in the afternoon.

There are so many dishes to prepare at noon, so the challenge is naturally quite difficult, and at this time, the cooking scene is very lively.

"Hurry up the pig head, hurry up, hurry up! Finish it quickly and there is still a cow head!"

It's easier said than done. This is something we often encounter. Many times, reality will deviate from our expectations. This is normal.

At this moment, Guo Kui and Hu Yue encountered a difficult situation. After starting to deal with the pig head, they slowly discovered that the speed was too slow.

If we go at the current speed, it will take at least 5 minutes more to process this batch of pig heads.

Don’t underestimate these 10 minutes. If every process is like this, it will pile up. You can’t let the guests wait at the table for an hour before the food is served, right?
"Fire tongs, fire tongs, bring five more fire tongs, put them all on the charcoal fire and start burning them."

Hu Yue also discovered the problem and quickly ordered more tools. After the tongs were red-hot, they needed to be used to remove the hair on the pig's head. This was the most traditional method.

Similarly, the pig head produced by this processing method is the cleanest, and the meat is the firmest and most delicious after production.

After adding the fire tongs, they finally regained some time. Guo Kui and Hu Yue continued to lead the people to deal with the cow head.

Master Zhu's side was not smooth either. The main reason was that he overestimated his processing speed, which naturally made the progress much slower.

There is only one reason why the speed has slowed down, and that is the existence of Mr. Li, the "supervisor".

“This doesn’t work, cut it again!
What is all this? Can such defective products be passed off as fake goods?

Don’t blindly pursue speed. Today we must pay attention to quality. While the speed is fast, the quality must also be improved. "

After receiving some advice from Mr. Li, his previously impetuous mentality immediately dropped, and the quality of the ingredients he processed began to slowly meet his requirements.

I was really too anxious before, so that everyone wanted to complete the work at hand as quickly as possible, so there was a big deviation in quality control.

The situation on the soup stock side was pretty good. The chefs were walking around like a maze, and they seemed to be able to do it with ease.

Wu's mother is doing the pickling work at the moment. Chu Yunfeng has prepared the spices in advance.

"Are you sure you're okay? Do you really don't need help?"

After Master Zhu and the others delivered a large amount of prepared fish grits and other ingredients, they asked Chu Yunfeng again. This dish was really time-consuming to make, and Chu Yunfeng did not let anyone help.

"Don't worry, just put the ingredients here. It's already been a lot easier for me to have you help me with the tofu and fish grits. Leave the rest to me."

Chu Yunfeng's words are absolutely correct. If he were to make such a large amount of tofu and fish grits by himself, he probably wouldn't be able to finish them in one day.

This was the first thing that Master Zhu and his dozen or so people completed. It took a lot of effort to "clean" a large amount of tofu and remove the fish grits.

"Okay, you can't be careless about this. If you find that you can't do it, call us for help!"

There are still a lot of ingredients that need to be processed. The chicken tofu puddings, snowflake chicken soup, and hibiscus chicken slices require beating a lot of chicken breasts, so you have to hurry up.

So after Master Zhu hurriedly told him, he quickly ran away without waiting for Chu Yunfeng's reply. He had to go back and take charge of the overall situation, lest those boys were accidentally reprimanded by Mr. Li again.

After Chu Yunfeng smiled, he closed the kitchen door, took some of the ingredients into the system space, and then started his "sexy operation".

The reason why this operation is "angry" is that all these ingredients cannot be put into the system space, but can only be taken in bit by bit.

Chu Yunfeng knew that although he said no one should disturb him while cooking, there was one person who was not among them.

Mr. Li!
His old man doesn't care so much. He will definitely monitor his progress at any time. If there is any problem, he will definitely be ready to remedy it at any time.

In order to prevent his secret from being discovered, Chu Yunfeng naturally needs to use both sides. While making things in the system space, he also needs to make things in the real world.

Only in this way can we cope with some sudden situations and avoid such abnormal conditions from being discovered by others, which will definitely be considered as a ghost.

After a large amount of ingredients entered the system space, Chu Yunfeng had all the ingredients automatically placed on the shelves in categories.

Then all the kitchen utensils and pots he needed appeared in front of him. Whatever he thought of, it would appear immediately. It was so satisfying.

It's really convenient!
The most important thing is to save time!
When what you need can be delivered to you immediately, it saves you a lot of energy and speeds up cooking.

What's more important is that time in this system space is stationary, and you don't need to spend experience points to cook here. You only need to pay if you cook a dish well.

According to the 1-5 star dishes, you only need to pay 1-5 experience points for one day's storage. That is to say, for every dish you make today, you will have to pay 5 experience points.

ferment!

This is a very crucial step. With everyone's help, the tofu and fish grits were prepared in advance, and even the lard was prepared with help. It couldn't be more considerate.

However, lard needs to be stirred clockwise so that it can be better integrated with the fish grits. However, stirring requires a lot of effort, which caused everyone a lot of trouble during the simulation exercise.

Someone suggested using a machine to stir, which would save a lot of time and energy, but Chu Yunfeng and Wu Ma rejected it.

The first is for the reputation of traditional Sichuan cuisine, and the second is for the taste of the dishes. There are still some differences between the machine-stirred and hand-stirred ones.

When manually stirring, some lard stuck to the inner wall can be identified, so that they can be scraped off and continued stirring. However, the machine cannot, and can only fix and repeat mechanical movements in one place, and the effect is naturally imaginable.

So when the chefs on Master Zhu's side finished mixing the lard, everyone found that their arms began to tremble, and they had to admire Chu Yunfeng's endurance.

During the previous demonstration in the kitchen, he didn't have any problems after being stirred, and he seemed to be able to do it with ease, which shows that his arm strength is extraordinary.

Everyone thought this was a very simple job, but under Mr. Li's supervision, they almost didn't stumble in the middle and could only persevere and stir it up.

Fortunately, most of the tasks have been completed, and the remaining 51 tables of ingredients have not yet been delivered, so I can finally breathe a little relieved.

Chu Yunfeng didn't know that everyone's arms were sore at this time, but it took him a long time to recover after being massaged. He was "refining both internal and external" at the moment, and both the system space and the real kitchen were in operation.

The production ratio on both sides is 4:1, that is, most of the work is done in the system space, and the rest is hidden in the kitchen.

After fermentation, frying and shaping began. Although there is less work in the kitchen than in the system space, it is only relatively speaking.

At this moment, there are 6 large pots set up in the kitchen, which are filled with hot oil fired according to different ignition times. One by one, the "pockets" are put into the pot for frying.

After the "pockets" were put into the pot, Chu Yunfeng turned over the bulging "pockets" in each pot alternately, and was very busy.

One hand is handling the fish grits with a spoon, shaping them and placing them in the pot. The other hand is holding a colander and quickly turning them over in the pot.

As more and more people entered, Chu Yunfeng's operation speed became faster and faster, which was dizzying. He was indeed very powerful.

After the first batch of "pockets" were completed, Chu Yunfeng took out more quantities from the system space and stacked them together to look very spectacular.

As time passed, when Chu Yunfeng was about to finish frying the huge number of "pockets", Mr. Li pushed the door open and walked in. Chu Yunfeng did not notice it at the first time.

Behind Mr. Li were Wu Ma and Master Zhu. At such a busy moment, these three big shots came together. Of course, they could not hide their inner anxiety and worry.

Although Chu Yunfeng promised that he could complete such a huge amount of production, hearing is believing and seeing is believing. No one can rest assured without seeing it with their own eyes.

Especially Mr. Li, although he also had confidence in Chu Yunfeng, he was not afraid of ten thousand, so he came over to check it out more than an hour after Chu Yunfeng started making it.

Mother Wu and Master Zhu were naturally very curious and worried. With Mr. Li taking the lead, of course they had to follow and take a look.

"I'll go, this guy is fast enough!"

As soon as he entered the door, Master Zhu was immediately surprised by the large number of large basins placed on the shelf in front of him, and couldn't help but make a sound of surprise.

But when Mr. Li and Wu Ma immediately stared at him, they knew that they shouldn't disturb Chu Yunfeng, so they immediately stopped talking.

Chu Yunfeng didn't notice the three people coming in. He was highly concentrated at the moment, salvaging every fried "pocket" and throwing them into the basin.

The three of them were like a sightseeing group. After entering, they headed towards these shelves and carefully looked at the fried "pockets" inside, counting silently in their hearts while checking.

After roughly estimating the production quantity, Wu Ma and Master Zhu showed a very scary look on their faces, and couldn't help but stare at Chu Yunfeng, who was operating at a very fast speed.

This is incredible!
If I were to do it myself, I would be pretty good if I could produce at most 1/10 in just over an hour, and if the speed were accelerated, the yield would be a problem.

Mr. Li nodded with great satisfaction when he saw these finished products, and became more confident in the next production.

The eyes full of vicissitudes of life and wisdom stared at Chu Yunfeng for a long time, as if wanting to see through his true nature. In the end, the old man shook his head and just showed a satisfied smile.

"Old Li, why are you here?"

After Chu Yunfeng salvaged the last bit of "pocket", he discovered the three people.

"Come here and take care of you and see if there is anything I need help with!"

Wu Ma's words were naturally meaningful. Chu Yunfeng didn't take it seriously. He just smiled slightly and nodded in response: "My speed is not bad, are you relieved now?"

"Cough cough!"

"Um"

Master Zhu and Mother Wu looked a little embarrassed. Chu Yunfeng had told them in advance not to disturb themselves while cooking, so naturally they were a little embarrassed by what they were doing now.

“Well done, keep up the good work!

By the way, your pot of meat needs to be processed a little more. It’s almost time! "

Mr. Li doesn't have the "enlightenment" of Mrs. Wu and others, so he won't be disturbed?Do you say no to let it go?
As soon as the jar of meat was mentioned, Chu Yunfeng immediately nodded and responded: "The time is just right, I'm about to go out to process it. How about the smell? Isn't it nice?"

Smells good?
It's not just a good smell, the scent is so strong that it's a bit unbearable, okay?
If the breeze hadn't started blowing away the ever-emitting aroma, the scent would have almost melted the nose, and it also made everyone feel hungry, as they had already eaten a lot.

At this time, Princess Silena also woke up from her sleep. The reason was simple. She was awakened by the fragrance, and she also felt that her stomach was very hungry.
