Chapter 36 He Yuzhu, you are going to be in bad luck
There was no orange juice and oyster sauce at this time. In fact, if you use some seafood juice, you can also improve the freshness. However, He Yuzhu thought that he had no status in the kitchen. If seafood juice was used to prepare cold dishes, the head chef would definitely not approve it, so he didn't say much.
After making the sweet and sour juice, I found hawthorn. What He Yuzhu is going to make is hawthorn honey cucumber.
First wash the raw materials, then add water to the pot and add the hawthorn to cook.
After boiling, turn to low heat, simmer for a while, collect the juice, add sugar and simmer again, finally add honey to collect the juice.
Keep stirring with a spoon during this time to prevent sticking to the bottom of the pot.
We ate in the middle of the meal, and after it was cooked, it was noon, when the guests came in large numbers.
Platefuls of cold dishes were prepared by He Yuzhu, and sweet and sour sauces were also used one after another.
Especially for everyone who ordered cucumbers, He Yuzhu made them all into hawthorn honey cucumbers.
When the cucumbers with hawthorn honey juice were placed on the tray, the waiter said in surprise: "Why are the cucumbers different today?"
Herbs, who was queuing up behind, stretched out her head and saw that it was He Yuzhu. She also smiled and asked, "Why are you still making cold dishes today?"
He Yuzhu nodded first and smiled: "This is a secret recipe passed down by my family. This dish is called hawthorn honey cucumber."
The waiter in front didn't say much, just said "oh" and took the dishes away.
Soon it was Vanilla's turn. He Yuzhu came from the plate at the back, picked up a cucumber strip, and stuffed it into the embarrassed Vanilla's mouth.
"Is it yummy?"
Vanilla's face was full of smiles, revealing two small dimples: "It's so delicious, sour and sweet, and has the taste of hawthorn."
The waiter in line behind was unhappy: "He Yuzhu, tell me honestly, have you fallen in love with vanilla?"
"No way, don't talk nonsense, I'm still a child." He Yuzhu quickly denied.
"Child? Are you lying? You look like you are in your late twenties, and you still call it a child?"
One sentence made He Yuzhu almost feel hurt internally. Does he look old like this?
Vanilla quickly denied: "Don't talk nonsense, He Yuzhu is only 16."
"Really? I don't believe it."
"I don't believe it either." The little girl next to me also said the same.
He Yuzhu said: "Since you don't believe it, then you will all call me Brother Zhuzhu from now on."
"Bah, don't take advantage of us." The little girl behind said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, you guys hurry up, the guests are waiting."
Zhang Yong looked at the back and was very angry. Why did He Yuzhu's old face have such a good relationship with the little girl?
Several waiters quickly took the dishes and went out.
Vanilla put two plates of cold dishes on the table, and the guest said in surprise: "What I want is cucumbers?"
Vanilla explained: "This is hawthorn honey cucumber, sour and sweet, which makes it more delicious."
"really?"
The guest said this, then reached out, picked up the chopsticks, took one and put it in his mouth.
Then his eyes lit up and he held out his thumb: "This tastes good! Brother Liu, come and try it."
"Really? Let me try it." The man called Brother Liu also picked up one of the chopsticks and extended his thumb after eating.
This made Vanilla, who had not left next to her, very happy, as if she had made the dish herself.
When he returned to the kitchen, he said to He Yuzhu: "Zhuzhu, the guests all reported that your cucumbers are delicious!"
"Yeah, I feel relieved now." After all, He Yuzhu changed the customer's request without authorization. They just asked for a portion of cucumber, and then He Yuzhu replaced it with hawthorn honey cucumber.
Adding sweet and sour sauce to other cold dishes is just a change in the recipe, that's nothing.
But I changed the cucumbers to cucumbers with hawthorn honey juice. If any customers were dissatisfied, He Yuzhu would be reprimanded.
The herbs didn't stay long, and then went to serve other dishes.
He Yuzhu continued to make cold dishes and was now able to gain a little experience per plate per minute. Seeing the experience value rising in front of him, He Yuzhu's old face lit up with joy.
I really hope I can always make cold dishes. This location is really a treasure trove of experience. Compared with stir-frying, making cold dishes is simpler and more convenient.
The experience gained is not a lot, just a little bit.
But while He Yuzhu was happy here, Zhang Yong in the distance became angry. He went out and pulled a familiar waiter and asked:
"Why do so many people want that new cold dish made by He Yuzhu?"
The waiter asked back: "Don't you know? Others asked for cucumbers, but He Yuzhu replaced them with cucumbers with hawthorn honey juice."
"How dare he do this?" Zhang Yong was directly frightened.
The rules in restaurants are actually very strict. Of course, the dishes requested by the guests cannot be replaced with other dishes casually.
Zhang Yong thought that He Yuzhu had already talked to the shopkeeper and added hawthorn honey cucumber to the menu.
But what I didn't expect was that He Yuzhu didn't do this. Instead, he dared to change the cucumber patting to this hawthorn honey cucumber dish in private.
The waiter was also surprised: "You don't know? I thought you and the chef knew about it."
"Who knows, he did this all by himself."
After Zhang Yong said that, he asked: "Are you sure this hawthorn honey cucumber dish is not on the menu?"
"Of course not."
Zhang Yong asked again: "Does the shopkeeper know? Has anyone complained?"
If the shopkeeper knew about it, then this matter was not He Yuzhu's fault, and he had no reason for the attack.
"The shopkeeper probably doesn't know," the waiter said.
Zhang Yong took a deep breath and felt that he had incredible evidence, and now he could punish He Yuzhu for a serious crime.
After sending the waiter away, Zhang Yong went to the head chef Zhang Zusheng and said, "Uncle, He Yuzhu changed the dishes for the guests."
"What? He changed the guests' dishes? What dish was changed?" Zhang Zusheng was surprised when he heard this and asked quickly.
If there were complaints from spectators, He Yuzhu would be scolded and he, the head chef, would also be criticized.
Everything in the entire kitchen is within my own jurisdiction. The problem that arises is that I have not managed it well.
"You go back first, I'll go to the front to take a look and tell He Yuzhu not to change the dishes for the time being."
After talking, Zhang Zusheng hurriedly went to the front hall to learn about the situation.
Zhang Yongxiong came to He Yuzhu's side and said arrogantly: "He Yuzhu, you are going to be in bad luck."
Then he said: "Don't make your cucumber now."
"Why?" He Yuzhu asked.
"Why? You still have the nerve to ask me why I changed the dishes for the guests?"
Zhang Yong said excitedly: "The customer clearly wanted cucumbers, but you actually changed them to cucumbers with hawthorn honey juice. Who gave you the right?"
He Yuzhu said in confusion: "Can't you change it? Hawthorn honey cucumber is more delicious?"
"What's the use of being more delicious? If you don't cook the dishes that the guests want, but instead change the dishes on your own, you're just waiting to be unlucky and kicked out!"
