The first thing I did was to find out

Chapter 236 Master Xiao Qin has me in his heart!

Qin Huai didn't know whether Dong Shi had heard any news about Xiao Xu from Huang Shengli and Zheng Da. Anyway, the two-day deadline had passed and there was no news from Dong Shi.

Qin Huai didn't ask him, he was having a great time making the four-happiness dumplings.

After making four-happiness dumplings for so long, Qin Huai suddenly understood why Master Jing had cooked a pot of four-happiness dumplings without any different shapes on Gong Liang’s birthday.

Because opening blind boxes is really fun.

Especially when a lot of people gather together to eat dumplings, watching everyone open the blind boxes doubles the joy.

Qin Huai is working during the day now. After making enough Guoer, he starts making four-happiness dumplings and first opens a batch of blind boxes for everyone in Huang’s kitchen.

In the afternoon, I practiced the heat with Huang Shengli, and then went to work in the evening. After get off work, I came home and cooked another batch of four-happiness dumplings and opened a batch of blind boxes for the old customers of Yunzhong Canteen.

Basically, at eight o'clock every night, Qin Huai's living room is filled with uncles and aunts waiting to eat the Four Happiness Tangyuan blind box. If there is not enough room at Qin Huai's house, they will sit at Gong Liang's house next door. Anyway, Gong Liang and his wife will definitely be waiting at Qin Huai's house.

The Qin Huai family's already rich kitchen utensils underwent another wave of upgrades and updates, and a new large pot was purchased, a large pot specifically for cooking dumplings.

As the round dumplings rolled in the boiling pot, Qin Huai counted the seconds in his mind. After cooking dumplings for so long, he had gained some experience. If he wanted to cook the dumplings to the perfect color, transparency, taste, and toughness, it was definitely impossible for him to do it with his current level.

However, it is still no problem to reach the basic level of cooking glutinous rice balls that the public has, and be a little bit ahead of it. At the same time, it is far better than Dean Qin, and her level of cooking sesame-filled glutinous rice balls is six streets ahead of her.

The hot dumplings are out of the pot.

Ouyang was diligently handing out bowls to the side, and a small pile of bowls was piled high. Qinhuai quickly put the glutinous rice balls into the bowls, four in a bowl, poured a little soup on them, and put a small spoon on top.

Perfect midnight snack.

The only thing is that glutinous rice products are a bit filling. If you eat too much at night and then eat this, you may end up feeling too full to fall asleep.

Of course, this problem does not arise among diners who eat gnocchi today.

Everyone has experience, knows the importance of it, and knows that health is the capital of revolution. If we really eat and drink too much and get into trouble, and Master Qin is scared and doesn't cook dumplings for us in the evening, then we won't have anything to eat.

Everyone can still tell the difference between one meal being full and another meal being full.

After serving all the dumplings, Qin Huai did not let Ouyang Duan leave. Instead, he casually opened the game panel, glanced at the experience value of the cooking temperature, and also glanced at the experience value of other skills.

Now Qin Huai's skill panel has become:

Comment: A dim sum chef of some fame.

Hey, my fingering skills are just a little short of leveling up by some experience points.

Qin Huai regretted not making two more fruits tonight. It would have been fine if he hadn't seen it, but now that he saw it, Qin Huai wouldn't be able to sleep tonight unless he earned this bit of experience.

Speaking of the proficiency of these skills, Qin Huai also found it magical.

Those who suffer from drought will die from drought, and those who suffer from waterlogging will die from waterlogging.

Qin Huai no longer needs to deliberately brush up on his proficiency in making dough and seasoning. As long as he makes snacks on a daily basis, his proficiency will increase rapidly. He can improve his proficiency in these two skills by making any kind of snack.

Especially when it comes to making dough, anyone who makes snacks will need to master the skill of making dough.

But what Qin Huai wants to improve now is his proficiency in the heat.

From Zheng Siyuan's perspective, Qin Huai is undoubtedly a very fickle dim sum chef. He loves every new dim sum he sees, throws away every new one, eats what's in the bowl and looks at what's in the pot. No new dim sum can keep Qin Huai interested for more than a few months. He is definitely a bad dim sum chef.

Absolutely outrageous!
Qin Huai was lucky. He could always get many recipes for new snacks somehow, and they were all good ones.

Qin Huai himself admitted that he was a bit of a sucker for dim sum, but it wasn't entirely his fault.

There are simply too many side quests, and the tasks are arduous.

The difficulty of making the four-happiness dumplings has not been overcome yet, and the recipe for the double crab buns has been delivered to my door.

It can't be done, it can't be done at all.

Qin Huai wanted to improve his proficiency in Fire Skills and make this currently relatively weak main skill a high level one, but he could only take time out to practice it, and his practice was often interrupted by various emergencies.

For white-cooked chefs, the heat is not that important.

After coming to Huang Ji, Qin Huai deeply felt that as long as the skills are up to standard, any shortcomings will be a small problem for the master chef.

If the heat is not good enough, then find a few chefs who are good at cooking white or even red dishes to help.

If you are not good at fingering, then select a few pastry chefs with excellent fingering skills to specialize in shaping the pastries.

As for the poor knife skills...

It doesn’t matter. For the chefs of plain pastries, there is no dessert that requires them to cut the vegetables themselves.

Huang Shengli admired Qin Huai's persistence in practicing the temperature intermittently for such a long time.

Huang Shengli admired Qin Huai very much, who had achieved the status of an absolute master chef, who was able to command the support of hundreds of people in the kitchen. If he came late, someone would keep dinner for him, if he raised his hand, someone would pass him tea, and with just a glance, helpers would rush to work one after another. This chef who had made it big and seen the world was willing to ask for advice humbly and practice hard like a fledgling apprentice, practicing various kinds of stir-fried meat in the kitchen every afternoon.

Putting aside other things, this spirit alone is worthy of praise.

If Qin Huai knew what Huang Shengli was thinking, he would definitely say to Huang Shengli: Master Huang, don’t just admire me yet, help me think about how to improve my proficiency in the cooking process.

It is too difficult to gain proficiency in heating.

Although the finger technique is actually the least efficient at proficiency now, Qin Huai makes so many fruits every day, so it stands to reason that his finger technique proficiency should soar, breaking through the intermediate level in minutes, reaching the advanced level, and heading straight to the master level.

But imagination is rich, reality is very bare, and the proficiency of fingering is as abstract as Chen Gong's side quest, making it difficult to understand what its mechanism is.

In terms of difficulty, the difficulty of Mian Guoer is absolutely top-notch, and it is pulled to the limit. As a modified version of Apple Mian Guoer, Guoer is also quite difficult in terms of fingering, which is why there was no one in the kitchen who could help Qin Huai when he made Mian Guoer.

The requirements are too high. In terms of technical skills, only Zheng Da and Zheng Siyuan in the kitchen can help Qin Huai with this, but with their level, it is impossible for them to help others.

Wang Jun and Tan Weian were able to help color Guo'er because they had artistic talents far beyond ordinary people, otherwise they would not even be qualified to color.

Qin Huai didn't understand how to improve his proficiency in this finger technique, so he simply didn't study it and let it improve slowly on its own.

Anyway, he doesn't have an urgent need to practice fingering techniques now.

But Qinhuai really needs to improve the cooking temperature now. Many dishes just lack the right cooking temperature and are crying out for help, waiting for Qinhuai to improve the cooking temperature.

Longevity noodles is one dish, Guo Er is actually another, and Sanding Bao is half a dish. (S-level dishes are too high, Qin Huai dare not hope for it for the time being)
Judging from the recipes that have been found so far, there are indeed low-level recipes, but the number is very small, and most of them are A-level or even S-level. Qin Huai knows that the higher the level of the recipe, the higher the requirements for the chef's skills in all aspects.

You can have shortcomings, but those shortcomings still need other long boards to pull them up.

A-grade fruit can be accomplished by Qin Huai and Huang Shengli together, but what about S-grade one?
Qin Huai knew very well that he and Huang Shengli were making A-grade Guo'er because he was just trying to please others. Because in the original recipe of Guo'er, the proportion of red case was higher than that of white case.

He used B+ grade dim sum with Huang Shengli's A+ grade fillings, and relied on luck to create A or even A+ grade fruit, but not every dim sum was as special as the fruit.

A good blacksmith must have strong tools himself. As the proficiency in making dough and preparing stuffing increases, the shortcomings in the heat become more and more prominent.

Qin Huai also wanted to improve his proficiency in the fire, but he couldn't.

Normally, the speed of gaining proficiency in stir-frying vegetables and meat is very average. The effect of cooking four-happiness dumplings is slightly better. Basically, cooking a pot can gain 10~20 points of proficiency. However, cooking four-happiness dumplings takes time and effort, and Qinhuai can't just cook without wrapping.

Making four-happiness dumplings that will satisfy Gong Liang is also one of the top priorities now.

You can't just stop practicing Four Happiness Tangyuan just to improve your proficiency. That's putting the cart before the horse.

As Qin Huai's thoughts became more and more distracted, his eyes gradually became dull when he looked at Tang Tuan. It was almost written on his face that I was distracted.

Ouyang was also in a daze, staring at the clock on his mobile phone.

After eating glutinous rice balls for such a long time, Ouyang has gained experience.

You should never eat glutinous rice balls that have just come out of the pot, especially those with red bean paste or sesame fillings. The temperature is really no joke. At the very least, you will have to do tap dancing, and at the worst, you will get burned and need to go to the hospital.

If your tongue gets burned, it's bad. It won't heal in a short time and it will seriously affect your eating.

Therefore, after many attempts, Ouyang finally figured out the best time to eat glutinous rice balls.

3 minutes and 50 seconds after coming out of the pot!
If you scoop up the glutinous rice balls and blow on them, the time can be reduced appropriately. The specific amount of reduction depends on each person's lung capacity.

Ouyang stared at the time, and his drifting thoughts gradually came back.

3 minutes 48 seconds.

3 minutes 49 seconds.

3 minutes and 50 seconds!
Time is up!

Start!
Ouyang moved, and moved very quickly. His movements were so fast that only a shadow could be seen. Almost in a whoosh, the bowl of glutinous rice balls closest to him was in Ouyang's hand. The next second, he scooped up a big and plump glutinous rice ball and brought it to his mouth.

Cover it in one bite.

Can't contain it.

As a last resort, take half a bite.

Congratulations to Ouyang, you won the prize, it’s fruit filling!
Ouyang put on a mask of pain.

Ouyang began to shout silently, frowned, beat his chest and stamped his feet, crying in his heart. He drank two mouthfuls of the tasteless glutinous rice dumpling soup, chewed it, and swallowed it in one gulp. He looked at the remaining half of the glutinous rice dumpling with a fearless look and swallowed it in one bite.

Ouyang scooped up the second one sadly and put it into his mouth impatiently, wanting to relieve the torture brought to him by the fruit-flavored glutinous rice ball just now.

Take one bite.

Congratulations to Ouyang, he won again, and it’s a fruity dumpling!
Ouyang almost shed tears. He knelt down, raised his hands above his head, raised his proud head and questioned the heavens why.

But he wouldn't do that, because when he looked up now he couldn't question the sky, he could only question the kitchen ceiling.

"Qin Huai, how many glutinous rice balls with various fruit fillings did you make today? When I looked at you in the kitchen just now, it seemed like you didn't make many!" Ouyang asked angrily.

Ouyang's angry voice brought Qin Huai back to reality. Qin Huai was stunned to see that Ouyang actually won the prize: "Your luck is pretty bad today. There is not enough winter melon candy at home. I didn't make many fruit fillings because I didn't boil enough sugar. There are only 8 in total."

"You can only eat one of these 21 bowls of dumplings. You should buy a scratch ticket during the day."

Ouyang: ...

Tired, destroy it.

Qin Huai opened the kitchen door and said to the uncles and aunts outside who had stopped chatting a long time ago and were staring at the kitchen door with expectant but restrained, excited but reserved eyes: "The dumplings are ready, you can eat them now."

Uncles and ladies came in one after another to get the dumplings. Everyone smiled happily when they saw that the half dumpling in Ouyang's spoon was filled with fruit filling. Those who had a good relationship with Ouyang even made a few jokes.

"Xiao Ou, I knew you were a good person. Please help me test the temperature and the fruit filling."

Everyone will think that it is normal. Even if eating Qinhuai’s dim sum comes with a layer of Master Qin filter, this filter cannot make the fruit filling a delicious filling.

For the loyal customers of Yunzhong Canteen, food tasting is something they have become accustomed to.

When Qin Huai was preparing dim sum in the afternoon, many uncles and aunts helped to taste the food.

They don’t charge for bad food, but they charge a little for delicious food depending on the situation. They understand the logic.

There is no charge for the dumplings tonight, and the uncles and aunts have already made preparations before you eat them.

After eating it, I found out that three flavors were charged, one flavor was free, and the two flavors were free.

Although the fruit-flavored glutinous rice balls taste bad, they taste bad in a unique way, they taste bad in a soulful way, they taste bad in a way that makes the show look good, and they taste good in a way that makes the old men and women laugh and chat while eating them, making it hard for everyone to refuse.

Who can resist a free blind box of glutinous rice balls?
If you don't get to try the glutinous rice balls with various fruit fillings, you're lucky. If you did, just consider it as contributing to Chef Qin's dim sum business, offering some unimportant opinions, and making some very unprofessional but emotional comments.

I don't know how much this can help, but it can help a little.

In the past, Xu Tuqiang could always occupy the C seat at table No. 9 in the Yunzhong cafeteria, but now he can’t do that at Qin Huai’s house. He considers it a victory as long as he is not squeezed out of the house and eats in the corridor or at Gong Liang’s house.

Although Gong Liang's house has heating and floor heating, which is much warmer than Qin Huai's house, everyone likes to eat while standing at Qin Huai's house.

It’s close to Chef Qin, and the food tastes great!
"These dumplings with meat filling, sesame filling, and red bean paste filling are all delicious. Why does Chef Qin insist on making this disgusting passion fruit filling?" Xu Tuqiang muttered.

"It's filled with various fruits. What passion fruit filling? The passion fruit is so sour. It will probably be even more unpalatable if used to make dumplings." Uncle Qian complained.

"Who said passion fruit tastes bad? It's because you don't know how to buy it. Xiao Chen, don't you think so? The passion fruit you sold in a group purchase last time was so delicious. My granddaughters kept holding it and eating it every day. When there is a chance to sell it in a group purchase again, I will buy more." Grandma Ding spoke up for passion fruit.

Chen Huihong was wondering in her heart what Qin Huai was thinking. How could he make such unpalatable dumplings? How could he make such unpalatable snacks with a system and even call everyone over to try the food? Shouldn't he have just given this kind of food to Ouyang to eat before?

Could it be that Qin Huai's system has mutated recently and needs to collect everyone's negative emotions? Fortunately, she didn't bring Huihui today. It was really unlucky today that there were two dumplings stuffed with various fruits in a bowl.

"Ah, what do you mean by opening a group? Dean Ding, haven't all the furniture in your house been moved in? Oh, passion fruit, right? That's easy. I'll go back and tell my brother to keep an eye on it and let you know when the group opens." Chen Huihong continued to struggle with the fruit-filled glutinous rice balls with a bitter face.

The guests of Yunzhong Canteen have regained the feeling of grabbing snacks in the canteen in the past. They eat and chat, having a great time and feeling extremely happy. However, Gong Liang's mood is more complicated.

Gong Liang glanced at his wife, who was humbly asking a middle-aged woman for advice on how to take care of her grandchildren in order to lay a solid foundation for raising her grandchildren in the future. He looked out the window with melancholy, feeling that no one could understand his sadness.

At first, he thought he was special.

He thought that Chef Qin cooked specially for him alone and even invited him to Huang's for dinner in the morning and let him eat all the way into Huang's kitchen.

result--

Gong Liang looked at the people in the room.

This is actually just Master Qin’s hobby.

Master Qin just likes to prepare some special dishes. Chen Huihong, Qu Jing, Ouyang, and Luo Jun, who is said to be staying in Shan City and has not come here, are the first choice for Qinhuai's special dishes. He may not even be able to squeeze into the first choice.

Gong Liang was worried.

How could he not even get the first pick?!
It’s all Zheng Da’s fault. He rented such a small house in the first place, and now there is nothing left to buy in this house.

Just when Gong Liang was feeling melancholy, his cell phone rang. It was the WeChat notification tone, and someone sent him a message.

Gong Liang took a look.

Qin Huai (birthday 6.1): Mr. Gong, are you free later? I plan to make two more lantern dumplings for you later. If you don't sleep late today, I will ask you to come over to eat after I make them.

Qin Huai (birthday 6.1): This is the first time I make the clamp flower palace lantern bag, please don’t mind if it is not done well.

Qin Huai specially brought some ready-made dough home today, originally intending to make rabbit buns for Huihui.

As a primary school student, Chen Huihui has her own persistence.

No matter how delicious the fermented glutinous rice steamed buns, three-diced buns, and five-diced buns are, her favorite is still the cute-looking rabbit red bean paste bun.

The child has a small appetite, so two small buns with a glass of milk in the morning will fill him up. Anyway, the amount is not much, so Qin Huai plans to pack 5 days' worth of buns at one time, let Chen Huihong take them home and freeze them in the refrigerator, and steam them for Chen Huihui every morning.

It seems that Chen Huihui can’t eat it now.

Qin Huai basically does not increase the proficiency of finger techniques when making rabbit buns. Qin Huai is afraid that he cannot gain any proficiency even after making 10 rabbit buns.

It’s better to take a gamble with the Qianhua Palace Lantern Bag.

As for the first time, if it is not done well and fails, will it create a bad impression on Gong Liang?

What a joke, Gong Liang had eaten the crab roe steamed buns that failed before, and now he has eaten the glutinous rice balls with various fruit fillings. Qin Huai couldn't imagine how a red bean paste-filled pliers and lanterns would fail to surpass the two predecessors.

When Gong Liang read the message sent by Qin Huai, he felt warm in his heart and his back straightened.

Master Xiao Qin has me in his heart!

Although his hobby is to cook for himself, he has me in his heart!

I, Gong Liang, must be in the first echelon!
