Food: How did I become a chef when I set up a stall.

Chapter 120 Let’s do this today!
  That night, Jiang Feng took Zhang Hu and He Tian to the guest's house to check on the stove.

The person who hosted the banquet was called Niu Feihu. His family dug coal and he was considered a wealthy person in the village. Tomorrow his son will celebrate his 100th day, and he will hold a 100th day of wine, so he will do it in the village.

Niu Feihu's home environment is very good, and the house and yard are newly built.

The village is a big place, the banquet is placed in the courtyard, and all the tables and chairs are ready.

People in the family are coming and going, lanterns are decorated.

The village is just trying to be lively.

The banquet will officially start tomorrow, and Niu Feihu specially invites the chef from "Gourmet Restaurant" to prepare the banquet.

Since Jiangyuetai has not officially opened yet, everyone is accustomed to calling it Gourmet Restaurant.

I heard that Niu Feihu had invited the restaurant’s chef over, and many people from the village came to watch.

"Lao Niu's family is quite impressive. They hired a chef from the Gourmet Restaurant. The restaurant is so old-fashioned!"

"It costs 800 for a table!"

"I heard it costs 1200 per table."

"How much, 1200? Okay!"

"You have to come early tomorrow."

Jiang Feng and Zhang Hu confirmed the cooking place. A total of four stoves could start cooking at the same time, and Jiang Feng was responsible for one stove.

Jiang Feng picked a dish for himself and was responsible for stewing the elbow.

It feels good to stew the pork elbow in the open air in the village, and the other details are left to the employees.

They chatted with Niu Feihu about the details, confirmed that everything was fine, and then went back to prepare.

The next day, the weather was sunny and cloudless, which was rare good weather.

The weather is just right for a wedding.

The Niu family asked a fortune teller to calculate that the auspicious day would be just right for a big banquet.

Jiang Feng took the chefs from "Jiang Yuetai" to the yard at eight o'clock in the morning. After unloading the things, he started to prepare.

There were many people in the yard, busy going back and forth.

Many villagers also came early and chatted with Niu Feihu’s family in the yard.

There were also people outside the yard.

"The Niu family is still awesome!"

"This is such a grand occasion!"

"Lao Niu only has a son when he is thirty-five, so he must not spend too much money."

The villagers were talking a lot.

The feeling in the village is like this. There is no sense of distance between people, and everyone can chat with each other. Moreover, the intelligence system in the village is extremely developed. If something happens, the whole village will know about it within half a day.

The chefs at Jiang Yuetai quickly found their positions and started busy.

Everyone is professional in making banquets.

The chefs were even more happy when they heard that Jiang Feng was also giving bonuses.

If you come to the village, you only have to work all morning, and you will get extra bonuses.

It's a comfortable job!
  Everything is in full swing.

The environment here is very simple.

Jiang Feng hadn't been to the village for a long time, so he set up several sheds in an open space outside the yard and cooked in them.

It feels different.

Jiang Feng is responsible for one dish:

Braised elbow.

There are 16 tables in total, and 16 servings of elbows will be stewed. Considering that there will be emergencies, Jiang Feng prepared 18 good large elbows at one time.

If you can’t finish it by then, the chefs can eat it themselves.

Although Jiang Yuetai's first banquet was a village banquet, Jiang Feng was not unambiguous.

Each elbow is cleaned with a flamethrower to remove the hair and smell.

Prepare the colored braised sauce, sear the skin of the elbow, and bring to the boil.

It should be cooked for at least two hours, and finally returned to the pot to collect the juice.

The pot Jiang Feng used was a large black iron pot.

Jiang Feng was very energetic after stewing so many elbows at one time.

He carefully prepared the ingredients for the stewed elbow, and the final sauce was specially prepared by him.

When the sauce becomes thick, you can take it out of the pan and serve it.

Everything is just right.

Niu Feihu and his family came to visit occasionally.

The chefs at Jiang Yuetai all wear chef uniforms and chef hats. Whether they are chopping vegetables or garnishing dishes, they all highlight a profession.

Usually those who take care of banquets in the village are small businesses who drive around in large trucks. The food they cook is good, but it doesn't look very formal.

The chefs at Jiangfeng Restaurant all came from Zhengerbajing Restaurant, so the feeling is really different.

The difference between regular and bulk.

Niu Feihu was quite satisfied.

This pussy is so full that it makes him look very proud.

Many villagers also looked here, and their faces were full of amazement when they saw such a professional team.

Jiang Feng's elbow is very fragrant when stewed.

Although the lid of the large iron pot is tightly closed, the smell will still come out of the pot.

The smell wafts out.

"Boss, your elbow is so delicious when stewed."

Zhang Hu took the time to come over and couldn't help but praise.

"The sealing of the large iron pot is not tight. If you stew too much at one time, the smell will escape."

Jiang Feng responded.

Hearing this, the other chefs smiled and looked this way.

Jiang Feng is a good boss.

Not only is he good at cooking, he is also generous.

Although the chefs only followed him for a few days, they were all willing to work with him.

Zhang Hu can read people very accurately.

Jiang Feng's exquisite cooking skills and financial resources to afford a restaurant are definitely not ordinary people.

There is no harm in following such a person.

The smell of elbow is getting more and more fragrant.

Outside the Niu family's yard. Several people were chatting, and suddenly they smelled the aroma of meat.

Everyone was waiting to have a meal but didn't eat. When they smelled this smell, their stomachs immediately growled with hunger!
  "What are you doing? It smells so good!"

One person stretched his neck and looked in the direction of the banquet.

At this time, Niu Feihu's eldest brother happened to come over.

"Niu Da, what is this stew? It tastes so fragrant!"

Someone asked impatiently.

Niu Feihu's eldest brother responded: "A big pot of stewed elbow, and a pot of braised beef."

"This should taste like elbow."

After hearing what he said, everyone smelled the smell and couldn't help but admire:

"The cook you hired is really good, and the smell smells delicious!"

Niu Feihu’s eldest brother said slightly proudly:
  "That's not it, the chef invited by the gourmet restaurant."

"But I heard from my brother that it is no longer called Gourmet Restaurant. It is called Jiang Yuetai. It has a new owner."

“We can only hire them during this period of renovation, but we can’t hire them on weekdays!”

"The chefs there are very good. They specialize in Shandong cuisine and their skills are very good!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

"It turns out they were invited by a big restaurant, no wonder!"

"The chef who runs the restaurant must be great!"

"I really can't leave when I smell this smell."

The courtyard is lively both inside and outside.

What is needed when hosting a banquet in rural areas is this festive feeling.

Niu Feihu’s relatives had arrived early, and there were many children playing in the yard.

There is a strong sense of humanity in the village.

Several children smelled the aroma of elbow and couldn't help but walk towards the kitchen.

They walked all the way to the big pot where Jiang Feng stewed elbows. They stared straight into the pot and put a finger in his mouth to shudder.

"Why are the kids here? There are people coming and going, so don't bump into you."

Zhang Hu saw the child coming and hurriedly drove him away.

Jiang Feng stared from the side.

At this time, the adults saw the children running into the kitchen, and two adults came to catch them and take them back.

"Juanjuan, Lele, don't you guys stay there? We'll have lunch at noon. Come back soon!"

the adults shouted.

"We want meat!"

A child raised his fist high and said sternly.

When the other children saw what he said, they all imitated him:
  "We want meat!"

"Eat, the meat is not cooked yet, let's have it for lunch!" The adults came over and hugged the children.

The child couldn't eat meat and suddenly started crying.

The sound mixed in the kitchen, adding a bit of liveliness to the yard.

The two adults looked at Jiang Feng, hoping that Jiang Feng could give them something to eat.

Jiang Feng said calmly:
  "It's indeed not yet cooked. It's still simmering and the juice will need to be collected in a while."

After hearing this, the adults took the child and left forcefully.

The elbows in the pot are simmering continuously.

Jiang Feng took the time to check on the chefs' preparations.

Everyone is very professional.

Taking advantage of the time, Jiang Feng improved the recipe for making sweet and sour pork loin for Zhang Hu and He Tian.

Sweet and sour pork is a very popular dish, and Jiang Feng is very good at it.

If it is done well, there will definitely be an endless stream of people coming to the restaurant to eat sweet and sour pork every day.

Zhang Hu heard all Jiang Feng's suggestions and modified the sauce ratio according to Jiang Feng's instructions.

After Zhang Hu took a bite of the sweet and sour pork loin, he was shocked by the taste.

It feels really different.

Zhang Hu learned it from an authentic Shandong cuisine master, and he always felt that his sweet and sour pork was authentic enough.

Now when Jiang Feng took command, he discovered that there was a mountain outside the mountain.

"Who is the boss's master? This recipe for sweet and sour pork is not something you can learn online."

Zhang Hu was particularly shocked.

After Jiang Feng gave him some instructions, he went to see how the others were preparing.

The chefs are more serious than each other.

There is no way, the boss knows his stuff and can’t touch the fish!

But fortunately, Jiang Feng gave him a lot, and everyone was happy to do it.

More and more villagers gathered around.

Niu Feihu was rich and generous, and many people came.

It’s not just that many people come.

Except for the gatekeeper, all the dogs in the village do not have leashes.

These dogs don't bite, and run around in gangs every day.

The dogs smelled the smell and had already come to wait outside the yard.

In the past, dogs from two gangs would start fighting each other when they met. Although they didn't really fight, they would at least curse at each other.

Today, the two dog gangs are surprisingly peaceful.

It was as if they couldn't see each other.

One wave of dogs is in the east, and the other is in the west, waiting quietly.

They are obviously attracted by the scent.

Occasionally they would look at each other and look away tacitly.

Let's not fight today.

The scene in the courtyard was very lively, and the festive atmosphere soared into the sky.

There were smiles on people's faces.

There is a lively and lively feeling that only banquets in domestic villages can have.
