As Dai Li said, the single-table noodle dishes are basically special dishes that are often made in the store.
Fu Yu first cooked the stew, waited for it to be put into the pot, and then used this time to make cold, stir-fried and deep-fried quick dishes, and called the waiters to come over and serve them one by one.
The soft-shelled turtle was a bit troublesome to handle. After all the ingredients were prepared, Fu Yu started cooking the anchovies.
The workers have already processed the soft-shelled turtle, cut off the upper cover, removed the internal organs, and trimmed off all the fat.
Fu Yu directly put the turtle meat into hot water and quickly blanched it, smoothed it, and applied dark soy sauce.
Then cut off both ends of the garlic, and cut the barbecue into long, thin pieces.
The cutting of this barbecue is very particular. It must be able to withstand steaming and be cooked easily.
The seemingly contradictory requirements place very high demands on chefs on cutting techniques.
Not too thin, not too thick, it all depends on your cooking experience.
Fu Yu has cooked this dish twice, mainly the heart-shaped water fish. Although Yao Shi's specialty is Yao Shi, after teaching other people in the kitchen how to cook it, it became Gu Yunwu's special dish.
Zhao Meng really didn't have much talent in stewing, but Gu Yunwu's unique skill in cooking was about to surpass Yao Shi's.
Because the water fish cooked is authentic enough and tastes good, regular customers who come to the store usually place orders under Gu Yunwu's name if they want to eat this dish.
Zhao Meng can only take orders a limited number of times, so there are very few opportunities for Fu Yu to cook.
While Fu Yu was cutting the barbecue, he sighed in his heart, his cooking skills are really improving rapidly!
Dishes that I am not good at can now be cooked in a stylish way.
Heat the pan and pour oil. When cooking this dish, you must use peanut oil to have an authentic taste.
Wait for the hot oil to boil, pour oil on the turtle meat and the top cover respectively, then pour them into the grate placed on the oil basin.
Fu Yu didn't need to give any instructions for this step. Sun Qingning took the initiative to step forward and help.
Although Sun Qingning no longer helps Fu Yu with the cooking, the tacit understanding between the two still exists.
After controlling the oil, Fu Yu put the iron pot back on the stove and put the garlic into the oil pot and fried until fragrant.
Sun Qingning quickly stepped forward to scoop up the filtered oil.
At the same time, Fu Yu quickly sauteed the minced ginger and garlic until fragrant, then added the turtle, second soup and other side dishes.
When Fu Yu was cooking, Sun Qingning could always complete the cooking tasks he needed to do as soon as possible without Fu Yu's unnecessary instructions.
Even Zhang Jinyu, who had been helping Fu Yu in the kitchen for a long time, could not fully accomplish this.
When he had nothing to do, Fu Yu once jokingly mentioned to Sun Qingning that if one day he could start his own business, he would definitely take Sun Qingning away and let him stay with him as a cook.
Sun Qingning was grinning from ear to ear and deliberately competed with Zhang Jinyu for favor. He bluntly said that as long as Fu Yu opened his mouth, he would follow him without hesitation.
While the turtle was simmering in the pot, Fu Yu took the time to put the stew out of the pot and put it on the plate.
When the turtle was almost seven years old, he ordered Sun Qingning to take it out of the pot.
Fu Yu put the caught soft-shelled turtle on a special deep and long plate, stuffed the mushrooms and barbecued meat into the belly of the soft-shelled turtle, and arranged them in horizontal rows, alternating with each other, for a total of 6 rows.
Fu Yu didn't get started and just used chopsticks to make the stuffing. He did it quickly and accurately.
Sun Qingning stood nearby and watched in admiration.
Look at this technique, only Fu Yu can use chopsticks like this, right?
Unknowingly, in Sun Qingning's heart, Fu Yu seemed to be on the same level as Zhao Meng and Gu Yunwu, and sometimes even slightly better.
After stuffing the ingredients, Fu Yu poured the original juice directly into the belly of the turtle, and then carefully covered the top of the turtle.
After everything is done, put the turtle into the cage for steaming.
After this dish is steamed, it cannot be served immediately. You need to uncover the soft-shell turtle, pour the original juice into the pot, add pepper and wet starch to the original juice and cook it again into gravy.
Then pour the gravy on the soft-shell turtle, re-cover the soft-shell turtle with the lid, pour the remaining gravy on the soft-shell turtle lid, and sprinkle some minced ginger on the neck and lid of the soft-shell turtle for decoration.
As for the presentation, place the fried garlic around the soft-shelled turtle in an inner circle. Blanch the broccoli with oil and salt and arrange it in an outer circle around the garlic.
After the dishes were finished, Fu Yu admired them and felt quite satisfied, so he called the waiter to take them away.
After a table of noodles is cooked, it's time to prepare the dishes and prepare to welcome customers to order in the evening.
Fu Yu was busy adding seasonings when a waiter suddenly came to the kitchen to deliver a message.
"Fu Chu, the customers in box 302 said that the anchovies cooked in our store are not authentic and are shoddy. They used vegetarian stuffing instead of meat stuffing to cut corners and requested that the dish be withdrawn!"
Fu Yu was stunned: "The customer said that the Chuanxinshuiyu is not authentic?"
how come?
He cooked it according to the most authentic cooking method in the store, and even the soft-shell turtles were ordered to be selected from the fattest and largest ones.
Isn't this customer who comes to the restaurant a relative of Dai Li?
Why are you still finding trouble?
If it weren't for his own sake, how could he be so dedicated? Saying that what he does is unauthentic is obviously just nitpicking and the person doing it is not good-natured!
Fu Yu hurriedly confessed to Sun Qingning, then turned to ask the waiter: "Does the acting sister know about this?"
The waiter said: "The acting sister is also here, helping to persuade, but not stopping."
When Fu Yu heard this, he nodded: "Okay, I'll follow you there now."
After hearing what they said, Sun Qingning wondered: "No, what's going on with this generation's relatives? We cook with all our heart, and it's fine if we don't appreciate it. Why are we still like this!"
Fu Yu didn't see anyone and didn't know the specific situation, so he could only warn: "It's okay. I'll go over and take a look. You just keep an eye on this side. If Chef Zhao comes back later, don't mention this matter to him. Wait for me." Let’s talk about it when we get back.”
I didn't notice it before, but now that I think about it carefully, Dai Li was indeed a little strange before.
He looked distracted and absent-minded. When asked about Zhao Meng's whereabouts, it didn't look like he was checking the post.
Now that her relatives are clamoring to withdraw the food, there is a good chance that something is really going on.
Thinking of this, Fu Yu didn't waste any more time. After explaining to Sun Qingning, he hurried to the front hall.
When I entered the box, I saw a family of three sitting inside?
An older man, he looked to be in his fifties, almost sixty.
Next to him sat a woman of the same age, and sitting on the outermost edge was a young man.
Dai Li was standing next to the dining table, persuading anxiously: "This dish in our store is made like this, it is very authentic!"
The elderly man glanced at Dai Li and said in a deep voice: "No, what's the matter? The food in your store is just good? Who hasn't tried it? What kind of water fish is this? Isn't it just stuffed turtle? This dish should be stuffed with meat, look what he stuffed it with? Shiitake mushrooms, isn’t this fooling people?”
Fu Yu entered the box at this time.
The waiter walking in front helped knock on the door. When everyone in the room looked over, the waiter said: "The chef of our store is here!"
Fu Yu walked in and said to Dai Li, "Sister Dai, let me explain to the customer!"
Dai Li, who was trying to persuade her, turned around, walked up to Fu Yu, and whispered: "They have eaten this dish in other places and think the dish here is not authentic. I told them that this dish is not authentic." This is what Bian did, and they still don’t believe it.”
When Dai Li was talking, she raised her hand to wipe the makeup on the corners of her eyes. She didn't know whether she wiped it too hard or was tearful in the first place. When she looked closer, there were obviously tears in her eyes.
Are you crying?
Fu Yu was stunned when he saw Dai Li's tears: "Sister Dai, you?"
Dai Li shook her head: "I'm fine. I was a little excited just now."
Fu Yu knew that he was encountering a difficult relative.
Zhao Meng is not here at this time and Dai Li is in trouble. He definitely can't just sit idly by.
Fu Yu stepped forward and said to the three customers: "Hello, I am the chef of this store. I cook all the dishes on this table. If you have any questions, we can communicate and I will try my best to solve them for you. ."
Dai Li felt relieved when she saw Fu Yu coming forward to negotiate. The waiter who followed next to her had an expression as if she had a sponsor.
I don’t know when it started, but Fu Yu suddenly became the mainstay of the kitchen. When encountering difficulties, he can be relied upon with confidence.
Fu Yu first took a look at the dishes on the table and ate a lot of almost every dish.
As for this heart-shaped water fish, the top cover of the soft-shelled turtle has been lifted, and the turtle meat is spread out. Some of the fillings inside are exposed, and you can see at a glance what ingredients are used.
If it had been another customer, Fu Yu would have rolled up his sleeves and talked to him!
This dish is called Stuffed Turtle, which is not stuffed turtle at all. These are two completely different dishes!
But now this family of three are relatives of Dai Li. Fu Yu glanced at the older man, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "If you want to eat stuffed turtle, my kitchen can also make it, but in fact This heart-shaped water fish is the specialty of our store, and you can eat it with this original cooking method."
The elderly man had a mocking expression on his face and didn't say a word. He just stared at Fu Yu with an attitude of "You keep blowing, I'm listening."
Fu Yu: "."
The waiter standing next to him was also speechless.
We are not afraid that customers know our business, nor are we afraid that our customers do not know our business. We are afraid that our customers only have a partial understanding of our business.
Fu Yu was actually quite speechless. No matter how extravagant his words were, if the customers refused to accept them, no one would be able to recruit them!
The waiter on the side said carefully: "Chef Fu, why don't you change the dishes?"
This is also a good way to resolve disputes.
Because if the customer is not satisfied with the dish, no matter how you explain it, it will be useless. If you continue to cook this dish, you will definitely find trouble. It is better to simply switch to another dish.
Fu Yu frowned and said nothing, but he knew in his heart that most of the time this matter could not be solved smoothly by changing the dishes.
Thinking of this, Fu Yu said: "Of course, if you are really dissatisfied, we can also handle it according to your requirements. It doesn't matter if you change the dishes or withdraw them."
The elderly man obviously didn't expect Fu Yu's attitude to be so good. He was stunned for a moment and then said: "Please withdraw the food. I'm not satisfied with your food and I don't want to order it anymore!"
Fu Yu breathed a sigh of relief!
Fortunately, I was willing to return the dish, otherwise if I changed the dish, it would definitely be more troublesome to deal with it if I deliberately made trouble.
Fu Yu responded readily: "Okay, let's treat this dish as a withdrawal."
When the waiter heard this, he hurried forward to serve the food.
Since the dish needs to be withdrawn, the dish must be replaced directly.
When the older man saw this posture, his face suddenly darkened: "We've all eaten this dish, and you still want to leave?"
The waiter was stunned and subconsciously looked at Fu Yu.
Fu Yu said: "No, it's all on the table, just leave it."
The older man's face softened slightly.
Fu Yu added: "I'm sorry for affecting your dining mood. I will go back to the kitchen later and make another special dish of the store as compensation. Of course, if you have anything you want to eat, you can tell me directly. If There are no optional dishes here, so I will choose and cook them myself."
Don't open your mouth to curse those who apologize, and don't stretch your hands to hit those who smile.
Fu Yu's attitude of apologizing was so good. Although the older man's face was still not very good-looking, he didn't say anything to embarrass others.
Fu Yu saw that the other party did not object to his handling method, so he politely apologized again, then turned and left the box.
After walking out of the door, Fu Yu turned around and said, "This is the only way to deal with it."
The waiter looked at Fu Yu with bright eyes and couldn't help but said: "This is good, Fu Yu is a good cook!"
While talking, I received a notification from the kitchen, and the waiter hurried over to serve the food.
Dai Li also followed out and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, Xiao Fu."
It didn't end up causing a scene, so it was handled very well.
Now that it was confirmed that the dishes would be withdrawn, Fu Yu was willing to help and present another special dish, and Dai Li finally calmed down a bit.
Fu Yu looked at Dai Li's expression and couldn't help but asked with concern: "Sister Dai, are you okay?"
Fu Yu said and raised his chin towards the box.
Dai Li sighed, stretched out her hand to support her eyes: "It's okay, I just didn't control my temper just now, I was a little angry."
Fu Yu looked at Dai Li and didn't know what to say for a moment.
It is difficult for an upright official to stop household affairs.
He had often heard Zhao Meng talk about Dai Li's family situation.
In the past, I only knew that after Dai Li's divorce, she took her daughter to live with her mother.
I never heard Zhao Meng mention the relatives of Dai Li's family.
The current family of three doesn't know what their relationship is with Dai Li, but they don't seem to have a harmonious relationship.
Fu Yu saw Dai Li in such a state and couldn't help but said: "Sister Dai, I will come over in person to deliver the food later, and I will give you some advice then."
Even if it wasn't for the sake of Zhao Meng's face, he would not just sit idly by and ignore this matter.
After saying that, Fu Yu turned around and went back to the kitchen.
At this time, Dai Li shook her head and said, "Xiao Fu, no need, I'll just go and solve it. Those inside are my ex-law-in-law and brother-in-law."
In a word, Fu Yu was dumbfounded!
It turned out to be Dai Li’s ex-husband’s family!
No wonder they behave like this even though they are relatives! (End of chapter)
