Chapter 242 Precious Recipe
Chapter 242 Precious Recipe
Jiang Ci took a more detailed list of recipes that were more suitable for their restaurant's initial preparations and went to the town's courtyard with Lin Jingsheng in a donkey cart.
"Hey, you said we've posted a job posting outside the restaurant for two days, why hasn't anyone come yet? Is the town's chef shortage that high?"
"Each restaurant has its own unique recipes for cooking. There are no accidents for the chefs who cook there. The owner of the ninth floor will not let them go. But maybe the recruitment notice we posted was too short, and those chefs who wanted to work in another restaurant did not see it and did not receive the notice."
"Then wait two more days."
They took the two people who arrived yesterday from the restaurant to the compound.
"There are a few more cooks in that compound. I will teach you some recipes that are unique to our restaurant later."
Ma Ming, who came from the county, was very curious about the two new masters, "Do the masters know a lot of new recipes?"
"Not too many, but they are indeed dishes you have never tasted. The entire restaurant can be supported by these dishes. However, we also hope that you can bring out your own specialties to enrich our restaurant's menu."
Jiang Ci was not very humble when talking to the two newcomers. He was afraid that they would underestimate him. After all, he used to be a cook in a restaurant, and according to Jiang Ci's understanding, he was more or less a bit arrogant.
"The boss is really amazing. We will definitely learn seriously. Usually in the restaurant, no one would teach us so openly. It is our honor to learn different new dishes."
"You are the main force in the restaurant, so of course I have to hand over all the events I know to you. I hope you can also innovate on this basis."
After arriving at the compound, Lin Jingsheng called a few people and pulled the ox cart out of the compound.
The saplings they asked someone to buy from outside arrived early in the morning, and now they are taking them home to plant them.
Jiang Ci gathered the three people selected yesterday and these two people together and asked them to introduce themselves to each other.
"You all know how to read, right?" Jiang Ci was mainly asking Zhang Qiao and Ma Ming.
The other three people were given literacy courses in this compound, and they should be able to recognize the words that can be used in daily life.
"I know the words."
Zhang Qiao scratched his head embarrassedly, "I only know a little bit."
After saying this, he nervously observed Jiang Ci's expression.
"It's okay to know a little, but it's better to learn more words in your spare time after work."
"well!"
Jiang Ci thought for a moment and then said, "There will be one or two days of rest every month. I will make arrangements then and you can go to the literacy class here and listen to the lessons."
"Thank you, boss!" His eyes brightened up.
However, many doubts arose in their minds, but they did not delve into them for the time being because Jiang Ci handed the recipe she brought to them to look at.
"This is the dish we are going to learn in the next few days. The ones above are all new recipes I got from other places."
They all unconsciously moved their hands more gently when holding the recipe, for fear of damaging the precious paper.
Especially Ma Ming and Zhang Qiao, who had never been in the compound, their hands were shaking as they held the extremely detailed and clear menu.
They had been to restaurants before, so they naturally knew the value of this new recipe.
"This recipe is extremely valuable. You two, who have been in the restaurant before, know how valuable it is."
The two men responded immediately!
"I only gave you these recipes because your indentures are in my hands. Even though your indentures are in my hands, don't be afraid. As long as you don't do anything to reveal the recipes, your treatment will not be worse than that of the chefs in other restaurants. You will get paid the same and you will get one or two days off every month. But if you betray the master and reveal the recipes, you will end up in trouble."
Jiang Ci just asked them to see how many dishes they had to learn in the next few days, and took them to the kitchen without giving them much time to look at them in detail.
The kitchen in their compound is about the same size as the kitchen in the restaurant, so it's not crowded for six people.
Everyone was rushing to cut vegetables and light the fire, so Jiang Ci just stood in front of the stove and cooked, while the others formed a circle and watched attentively.
Jiang Ci explained the precautions to them while cooking.
Jiang Ci covered the pot with a lid and said, "Simmer over low heat for half an hour."
Li Li, who was burning the fire over there, took out a few pieces of firewood from under the pot and inserted them into the ash underneath.
"We are at another stove, learning another dish." Make full use of your spare time.
While the braised pork was stewing, Jiang Ci fried another meat dish and put it on plates for them to taste. Now it was their turn to show off their skills.
The kitchen was cooking meat dishes, and people studying in a classroom not far away couldn't help but look outside.
I don’t know what’s cooking in the kitchen that smells so good. It’s not long since they had breakfast, but their stomachs are rumbling again.
After class, someone immediately came to the kitchen and carefully looked inside.
"You guys are done with get out of class!"
Jiang Ci brought out a few dishes, "These are freshly made dishes, try a bite and see how they taste."
These are the meat dishes they have just cooked. They have tasted them one by one just now, and they have also tasted each other. Now they are serving them out for them to taste.
The fire was put out just now, and the braised pork that had been simmering in the pot can be eaten. Once the lid of the pot is opened, even if Jiang Ci closes the kitchen door, the rich aroma can spread throughout the entire courtyard.
Jiang Ci felt that he should not open the lid of the pot and serve the braised pork now, but should wait until they went to class before serving it out. This way, they could smell the aroma of the braised pork and their appetite would be aroused.
But if I only make a small portion, it won’t be enough to share, so I can only let them be greedy for a while longer.
"Have a taste."
The people in the kitchen had been impatient for a long time, and as soon as Jiang Ci spoke, they immediately reached out for the food with their chopsticks.
When they tasted the braised pork, they were truly impressed by Jiang Ci. Zhang Qiao and Ma Ming, who had worked in a restaurant before, admired Jiang Ci even more. If there were two more dishes like the braised pork, the restaurant would be able to hire any chef to do the job. They were really lucky.
After each person ate two pieces to taste them, it was their turn.
People in the compound had a snack of braised pork at noon, but the taste of the braised pork in each person’s bowl might not be the same.
