A good chef must have good arm strength.
Chefs generally have strong arm strength because they work with spoons all the time.
Especially the arm that bends the spoon.
Over the years, one arm will often become noticeably thicker than the other arm.
When Fu Yu was in school, in order to practice spoon-bending, he used to practice with his teacher by filling a wok with sand.
But no matter how hard you practice, if you hold the spoon for too long, your physical strength will still be unable to withstand it.
Now with the blessing of improved stir-frying technology, he no longer has to worry about straining his arms.
In addition to saving effort, this skill is also perfected for various situations encountered when flipping the spoon.
The action is more beautiful and the stir-frying is more even.
And every action is selected from the best angle and method.
If it were an ordinary person, even if he was told how to operate it, he would probably have to practice for a while.
But Fu Yu had the blessing of hand speed and feel. After a little thinking, he mastered it.
The assessment happens to be tomorrow, so I can show off my skills!
...
Fu Yu stayed busy at the music restaurant until 5:30 in the afternoon.
When the last dish was taken away by the waiter, everyone in the kitchen truly relaxed.
When going back, Yao Shi called Fu Yu and asked him for 1 yuan.
"Chef Yao, the money has been transferred too much."
It was agreed before that I would come over and help cook for a day's salary of 200.
Yao Shi smiled and said: "The salary is 200, and the other 100 is to reimburse your round trip expenses today. I was supposed to send you back, but I'm on leave today and it's not convenient to show up. You can take a taxi and go by yourself."
Not to mention that Yao Shi is capable, courageous, and very visionary.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Fu Yu immediately said gratefully: "Thank you, Chef Yao! Don't worry, I will definitely come on time when I take my rest."
...
Return to Chollima Hotel in the evening.
Seeing that it was still early, Fu Yu simply went directly to Zhao Meng's house.
From now on, when he has time off, he will go to the music restaurant to help cook, and he can only find time to clean up the house.
While working, Fu Yu received a call from Zhao Meng.
Zhao Meng had an early shift today. After get off work, he found that Fu Yu hadn't come back yet, so he called to express concern.
After Fu Yu answered the phone, he threw away the garbage he had collected and went back to the dormitory directly.
When Fu Yu carried two cigarettes to Zhao Meng's room, Zhao Meng was taking clothes out of the washing machine.
Zhao Meng is the chef, and the conditions in the dormitory are much better than those of Fu Yu and other workers.
The area is large, the windows face the sun, and there is even an extra washing machine in the bathroom.
Fu Yu put the shopping bag in his hand on the table and took the initiative to go over and help Zhao Meng dry his clothes.
"Chef Zhao, let me do it. You rest."
Zhao Meng was washing the bed sheets and stretched out his hand to stop Fu Yu: "No, just a bed sheet."
Zhao Meng shook the sheets twice and asked with concern: "How are you doing? What did you practice today?"
Fu Yu quickly told the truth about his job at the music restaurant.
Zhao Meng came over after drying the sheets. After listening to Fu Yu's words, he was surprised and said, "Food balloons? Do you still blow those?"
Fu Yu nodded: "Yes, it's actually not difficult at all."
Zhao Meng smiled and said: "This will remind you that you have a very flexible mind!"
Zhao Meng exclaimed as he thought of something: "Why don't you just make some dough balls to serve as a plate tomorrow? This is so creative. I think it sounds good. It doesn't matter how good the dishes are at that time. At the very least, The visual effect can shock them.”
Fu Yu said hurriedly: "That won't work. I've already sold this unique skill to Chef Yao."
Fu Yu told Yao Shi about hiring him to teach his chef how to make dough balls.
Zhao Meng said bluntly: "He reacts quickly. Once this idea is done, it will definitely become a major feature of the store."
After that, he told Fu Yu: "You're welcome to talk to Chef Yao. He has plenty of money. As long as you work hard, I will definitely not treat you badly in the future."
Fu Yu nodded.
Only then did Zhao Meng realize that there was a shopping bag on the table. He reached for it and took a look. His face suddenly darkened: "Fu Yu, what are you doing?"
Fu Yu hurriedly said: "I'm earning some extra money, so I just want to be filial to you. Chef Zhao, you must accept it. I know that you are particularly troublesome for my affairs, and I'm really touched!" , my family is not from the local area, and I don’t usually see my parents. If you are good to me, I will treat you as a relative. I also want to be good to you, but you have to accept it anyway!"
Fu Yu said as he backed away from the door.
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly opened the door and rushed out, while whispering: "I will definitely give you a good face tomorrow, don't worry!"
After saying that, he ran away without waiting for Zhao Meng's reaction.
Zhao Meng chased after him and stood at the door, seeing that Fu Yu had already fled back to his room.
Zhao Meng shook his head dumbfounded and cursed: "Smelly boy!"
A happy smile broke out on his face.
I guess my love for you is not in vain!
...
A tiring day, but a fruitful harvest.
Fu Yu thought he would fall asleep early, but ended up lying on the bed, flipping and making pancakes until early in the morning.
When I woke up early in the morning, I vaguely remembered dreaming about the scene of my final exam.
Check in at the front office as a routine.
【Signed in! Thanks! 】
【Ding! Daily task: Become the first in this assessment. Reward for completing the mission: a kitchen knife that can cut through iron as well as mud]
A kitchen knife that cuts through iron like clay?
Sounds pretty awesome!
Given the previous non-stick colander and non-burnt bottom wok.
This kitchen knife that cuts iron like clay is definitely a treasure.
Fu Yu chose to accept the task.
The next second, the electronic prompt sounded again:
【Ding! NPC chef Yao Shi's mission: pass the assessment and successfully become a full-time chef. Reward for completing the task: RMB 500, and a random professional skill from Chef Yao Shi. Task status: Not yet completed. 】
Fu Yu patted his head and remembered that when he learned that his boss had approved two regular quotas, the system had indeed issued this task.
If you include the new task he received yesterday, which was to teach the chefs at the music restaurant how to make dough balls, then he would have acquired two of Yao Shi's personal skills in total! !
This is the time to take off!
Fu Yu thinks that if he continues at this rate, he will be able to master the dozens of personal skills in Chinese cooking within two or three years.
The more Fu Yu thought about it, the happier he became, feeling that his prospects were really bright.
Busy all day.
Zhao Meng actually wanted Fu Yu to sharpen his gun before going into battle.
It's a pity that plans don't change as quickly as they do.
On this day, the store received two large-scale reservations for seats.
Everyone in the kitchen was busy slapping their feet on the back of their heads.
Fu Yu followed Zhao Meng to help with the cooking and had no chance to reach out.
Wait until it's time for shift handover.
Yao Shi came over and explained: "Those who will take part in the assessment later, start preparing now. It is 5 o'clock now, and in half an hour, the assessment will officially begin."
"Because of the time issue, we decided temporarily that those participating in the assessment only need to prepare one of their own special dishes."
Fu Yu was stunned and subconsciously looked at Zhao Meng.
Zhao Meng was also a little surprised.
The temporary proposition was actually cancelled.
In other words, for this assessment, you only need to cook a dish that you are good at!
Fu Yu is happy!
Good thing! ! !
