Food Circle Plug-in Emperor

The customer had no special requirements, just helping to make a birthday cake, which was not a difficult task for Fu Yu.

He changed his clothes and hurriedly took a taxi to Fuchengchun Hotel.

The customers who booked the birthday banquet this time directly booked the open room and private rooms on the second floor. This was a relatively grand banquet event for Fuchengchun Hotel.

It is said that there have been two similar banquets in the past, but they were all customized by the boss Liu Yongping's friends through connections. After all, large-scale banquets like this will have a certain impact on the normal operation of the store.

Fuchengchun Hotel does not have a business model that focuses on large-scale banquets. It usually mainly caters to individual guests.

The customer relied on the relationship of a good friend of Liu Yongping to book a reservation for this birthday banquet.

A total of twelve tables have been booked, all of which are large banquets. This means that Du Yingchun and Luo Rong are both there. When the time comes, several stoves in the back kitchen will be turned on at the same time, so that half-finished dishes can be made in advance and all are ready. Ensure the normal serving process of the banquet.

Everything was ready, and a lot of cold platters had been cooked in the kitchen. As soon as customers arrived at the store, they could start serving the dishes immediately.

As a result, the customer called for help at the last minute, and the old lady at home suddenly wanted to eat longevity peaches.

In previous years, birthday cakes were ordered. This year, a very famous local cake shop in the capital specially ordered a large cake with eight layers in height. It had both the birthday star and the birthday peach pattern on it, which was very suitable for the occasion.

As a result, when I was taking the cake, I asked the old lady to look at the photo, and she suddenly wanted to eat birthday peaches.

They all say that the little children, the old ladies, have birthdays today and are clamoring for birthday peaches.

As a child, I am very filial, so I tried every means to contact and purchase.

The main reason is that time is really short. Unlike other things, Shoudao can be purchased at short notice. It is usually reserved in advance. After all, it is not a hot-selling food. It is usually quite unpopular, and the noodle shops that supply it are also limited.

The customer contacted both companies, but they only accepted reservations and did not have any products in stock.

I really had no other choice, so I thought that Liu Yongping ran a hotel after all, and he should have more connections than me in this area.

Liu Yongping helped make contacts. The main reason is that Shoudao is not popular. In recent years, it has been popular to eat cakes for birthdays, so few people have booked Shoudao.

After thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that he had had dinner with Yao Shi when he went to Bei'an before.

At that time, Yao Shi casually lamented at the dinner table that Fu Yu was a genius in cooking. Not only was he good at handling red cases, he was also very good at white cases.

I used to help make longevity peaches for customers here in the store, which helped solve the problem.

It was just a casual mention. Liu Yongping didn't take it to heart at the time, but now in a hurry, he suddenly remembered it.

Since Fu Yu can make longevity peaches, he will help to deal with the emergency first. As for the style and taste of longevity peaches, he can't take care of it for the time being.

Liu Yongping first contacted the customer and explained the situation to him.

The customers have been anxiously rushing around for a long time. They heard that they can make birthday peaches, so they don't care about that. As long as they make the old lady happy, it will be a blessing to be able to successfully complete the birthday banquet.

After Liu Yongping received an accurate answer, he quickly called Li Dongxu and told him to send Fu Yu back.

As soon as Fu Yu got in the car, he received a call from Liu Yongping, asking him what ingredients he needed to make Shoudao, and the kitchen prepared in advance.

Fu Yu had heard Li Dongxu briefly talk about the situation in the store before. He thought that the old lady was so old, and since she wanted to eat longevity peaches, she should prefer the classic old taste.

Like the new product with rose fillings, it may not be something you can get used to eating.

As for Jixiang Shoudao, which only uses pure bean filling, it seems a bit too ordinary.

On the other hand, the Eight-Stuffed Shou Tao is quite good, with plenty of fillings and a good taste. As for the shape, he has made it before and has some experience, so he can design it more beautifully and distinctively.

Fu Yu hung up the phone, carefully listed all the ingredients and seasonings needed, and sent them to Liu Yongping.

When we arrived at Fuchengchun Restaurant, the kitchen had already prepared all the ingredients in advance.

Fu Yu changed his clothes and didn't waste time, checking all the ingredients and utensils.

In order to facilitate his cooking, Liu Yongping directly arranged to free up a noodle counter position in the white table area for him to cook.

Fu Yu was really not very familiar with the chef at Bai An's side, so he followed the other person to list the kitchen utensils that needed to be used, and then communicated carefully about what he would do when he was about to cook Shoudao.

Chef Bai An was extremely surprised when he first heard that the boss had arranged for Fu Yu to come over to make longevity peaches!

Although he didn't usually interact with the people at Hong'an because of his work, everyone gathered together during lunch, and he knew that Fu Yu was a person who came to the store for further training.

The young man was quite young and handsome. Not long after he arrived, he was sent to work at the food stall at the science and technology exhibition with Li Dongxu.

Being able to be sent out to participate in such a food event, Fu Yu's cooking skills must be very good.

However, cooking in Bai An and Hong An are two completely different things. Making Shoudao is an old-fashioned pastry. Even he has never made it before, so he didn't expect Fu Yu to know how to do it.

Chef Bai An was immediately interested and saw Fu Yu busy making cooking preparations, so he took the initiative to follow and helped with the preparations with great enthusiasm.

When Fu Yu was kneading dough to make longevity peach skin, Liu Yongping rushed over.

I heard that Fu Yu was already cooking at Bai An's side, so he came here too.

Seeing Fu Yu kneading dough, Liu Yongping carefully asked Shoudao's method and style.

Fu Yu explained: "I've only done it once before, and I don't know many types. Does the customer have any size requirements? Do you need to ask more carefully?"

The stuffing of Shoudao can be adjusted again, and the noodles can also be added. The main question is how big should it be?

I'm not sure about this matter, and it's hard to decide on the style of this longevity peach.

Liu Yongping didn't expect this. Hong Yan's cooking has always determined the dish size based on the size of the plate, and there are unified regulations. He ignored the size of the pasta cooked by Bai Yan.

Liu Yongping took out his mobile phone and quickly contacted the customer who ordered the meal.

After the call was connected, Liu Yongping immediately said: "Hey, it's me, Liu Yongping, it's like this. Our chef in charge of making Shoudao here wants to negotiate with you about the customized size of Shoudao... Oh, let's do this, you can talk to him directly , if you have any requests, you can make them directly.”

After explaining, Liu Yongping handed over the mobile phone.

As soon as Fu Yu picked it up, he heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from inside: "Hello, hello, I'm a custom-made Shoudao customer."

Fu Yu said quickly: "Hello, I am the chef responsible for making longevity peaches. Here is the situation. The longevity peaches I am going to make for you are eight-stuffed longevity peaches. The fillings will be candied dates, apricot preserves, raisins, pine nuts, hawthorn strips, Candied pineapple, melon seeds, peanuts, bean paste, if you have no dietary requirements and are satisfied with this choice of birthday peach fillings, I would like to know the specific custom size of the birthday peach.”

After hearing this, the other party immediately said: "The bigger the better, of course! The fillings are fine, they are quite complete, not bad, just go with the biggest one, it will look good when served on the table."

Fu Yu further communicated with the other party carefully about Shoudao's style design, and the other party was quite easy to talk to. Whatever Fu Yu said, he would agree "very well".

Fu Yu was sincerely relieved that the customer was so cooperative.

Since it is the largest size, it must be determined according to the size of the steamer drawer at Fuchengchun.

However, since the customer wants to serve the noodles on the table, in addition to the largest longevity peach, they can also steam a pot of small longevity peaches.

As long as you have time, you can make it more exquisite.

Fu Yu had done Shouting once last year. With experience, it would be much smoother when he did it again.

He puts the various fillings together, adds a little vegetable oil, and forms a ball.

Knead the dough evenly to make a skin, add stuffing and wrap it up to make a peach-shaped steamed bun.

In addition, I made some dough, added vegetable juice and coffee powder and kneaded it evenly to make green and brown dough respectively. The green dough was made into leaves and stuck on the steamed buns. The brown dough was kneaded into strips and made into the character "Shou". On the peach body, steam the prepared longevity peaches in a steamer.

This Eight-Stuffed Shou Tao is very simple in other aspects, but the head is big, so the skin should be relatively thick, and the fillings should be sufficient.

If you want to steam such a big and heavy longevity peach, time is of the essence.

It should not burst into cracks, and the filling inside should not be heated too much, causing it to taste too soft and lose the granular chewiness of the mixture of preserved fruits and nuts. It should also be controlled not to be too heated, causing too much effort when chewing, and the taste will be poor. will be affected.

It's quite difficult to grasp this degree.

Chef Bai An stood nearby, taking the opportunity to watch Fu Yu's cooking while he was busy with what he was doing, while mentally considering how to control the steaming time and heat of this giant longevity peach.

Shoudao and steamed buns have the same purpose. The filling is very important, and the texture of the dough is also very important.

It needs to be soft and fluffy like bread, and soaked in the fat of the filling to ensure that every bite is full of flavor.

Although Chef Bai An has never made Shoudao, this does not affect his understanding of cooking noodles such as steamed buns.

While Fu Yu was steaming, Chef Bai An couldn't help but put forward his own opinions on this aspect.

After hearing this, Fu Yu was immediately surprised. While adjusting the heat according to the other party's suggestion, he excitedly communicated with Chef Bai An about the cooking operation of steaming and heat control.

They were having a heated discussion when Liu Yongping suddenly came over to Bai An with someone.

"Xiao Fu, how's it going? This is the customer who ordered Shouting, Mr. Qin."

The visitor followed Liu Yongping and walked over. Fu Yu saw that the man was wearing a dark red top. He was very mature and steady, and he had a kind smile on his face. It was this smile that looked particularly familiar.

Isn't this the middle-aged man who carpooled with him?

When the middle-aged man saw Fu Yu, he was also stunned, and then said hello in surprise: "It turns out to be you, little brother! Ouch! What a coincidence, tell me."

Liu Yongping looked at them in surprise and asked, "So you know each other?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Yes, I was in a hurry to go to Fukeyuan a few days ago to handle the chargeback, and I took a taxi with this little brother at the time. Look at this fate!"

With that said, he looked at Fu Yu and introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Qin Li, thank you very much! Boss Liu told me, I really caused you trouble!" Qin Li thanked Fu Yu politely.

Fu Yu hurriedly said: "You're welcome. The steaming has started here. I will definitely finish cooking it in time for the birthday banquet."

When Qin Li heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and explained with a smile: "That's great! Oh, you don't know, my mother is celebrating her birthday today, so I ordered a big cake for her, but she Suddenly I wanted to eat longevity peaches. In my hometown, it used to be popular to eat longevity peaches on birthdays, but then I moved to the capital and my habit gradually changed. I haven’t eaten longevity peaches in more than 20 years. My mother suddenly remembered it again today."

When people get old, they all miss the past.

Fu Yu can quite understand, and so do his parents.

There is a grain store in the county town of his hometown, which has been open for more than 20 years. The store sells a few old-fashioned pastries. When Fu Yu was young, his parents often bought and ate them. Later, there were more and more various cakes and snacks. These old-fashioned pastries are gradually becoming less and less popular.

However, this time when he returned home for the Chinese New Year, his parents went out to buy some more. They ate them over and over again, and they still liked old-fashioned pastries like this the most. They tasted particularly delicious.

Liu Yongping said at the right time: "Mr. Qin, you are really a filial son."

Qin Li said with a smile: "I am from a single-parent family. It was not easy for my mother to raise me. Now that I am capable, I naturally have to respect her."

This brief conversation made Fu Yu's impression of Qin Li a little better.

People who are filial to their parents will not have bad character.

Fu Yu listened to their conversation and felt quite touched.

He said seriously: "Mr. Qin, please rest assured, I will definitely make the birthday peach very beautiful and exquisite, so that your mother will like it!"

Qin Li quickly smiled gratefully at Fu Yu: "Thank you, Fu Chu!"

Qin Li came to the kitchen specifically to thank Fu Yu and make sure that Shoudao would be served on time at the beginning of the birthday banquet and would not delay the business. He said a few polite words to Liu Yongping and returned to the dining area.

Fu Yu glanced at Qin Li's leaving figure and thought to himself that when Fu's father and Fu's mother celebrate their birthdays this year, as long as time permits, he will try to go home and celebrate with the old man.

When the time comes, he can make birthday peaches for his parents with his own hands.

In their hometown, there was actually the habit of eating longevity peaches on birthdays in the early years. However, because his parents were young and lived a very simple and frugal life, celebrating birthdays was nothing more than eating a bowl of boiled noodles in the morning and cooking two more delicious dishes in the evening.

Now that he is capable, it's time to celebrate his parents.

After all, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, and the child wants to be nourished but cannot be kissed.

He had to take advantage of his parents' health to show his filial piety. (End of chapter)
