The first thing I did was to find out

Chapter 333 The Person Who Understands Qin Huai the Most

Since the crab roe sauce made by Zheng Siyuan later was not suitable for mixing with noodles or rice, Qin Huai could only urgently launch the plan for ordinary crab roe buns and made a batch of crab roe buns with that batch of crab roe sauce.

Suddenly, crab roe buns fell and the guests in the Yunzhong Restaurant were as happy as if it were New Year's Day.

No, I am much happier than during the Chinese New Year. The Yunzhong Canteen was closed during the Chinese New Year, and I was not happy at all.

If you were to ask who is the happiest among this group of people, it would naturally be Xu Tuqiang.

It’s not because Qinhuai made new dim sum such as crab shell roe today, nor is it because of the crab roe buns that suddenly dropped in the afternoon, nor is it because Yunzhong Canteen suddenly added a lot of dim sum chefs, so there are endless ordinary dim sum from morning to night.

This is because Qin Huai specifically told Xu Tuqiang in the afternoon to remember to come to the cafeteria at around 7 o'clock tomorrow morning, as there would be glutinous rice cakes.

Glutinous rice cake!

Xu Tuqiang took a big bite of the crab roe bun, and while he was sighing in his heart that it was so delicious, he was also ecstatic that he could finally eat glutinous rice cake tomorrow.

Xu Tuqiang glanced at his neighbors who had obviously changed their minds and given up on crab roe noodles in favor of crab roe buns.

Humph, they are all guys who fall in love with every girl they meet, unlike me, who only has glutinous rice cake in my heart forever!
Hey hey hey.

During dinner in the evening, Tan Weian asked Qin Huai worriedly, now that everyone has found the correct research method for crab roe sauce, it is estimated that it will be successful soon, so should we stop making crab roe noodles and crab roe rice in the future?

Compared with crab roe buns, Tan Weian prefers crab roe rice.

Qin Huai comforted him, "I'm sure they won't stop making it. The recipes for bibimbap and bibimbap you gave me are also worth studying. Zheng Siyuan will definitely study it, right, Zheng Siyuan?"

Zheng Siyuan was holding the meal, looking at the pork with preserved vegetables on the plate with some distress. He nodded when Qin Huai cueed him, "Of course."

Zheng Siyuan understood what Qin Huai meant. Tan Weian gave the recipe, so of course they had to arrange the food. If Tan Weian wanted to eat crab roe rice, he could make it for him. It wouldn't take much time anyway.

As for Uncle Wang and Ouyang... for them, there is no difference between trying the crab roe buns and crab roe noodles. They love them both and will eat whatever they are given.

Zheng Siyuan continued to look at the braised pork with preserved vegetables in front of him with melancholy.

Qin Huai glanced at Zheng Siyuan's plate and found that he still didn't believe in it and scooped up some pork with preserved vegetables. He asked, "Do you like pork with preserved vegetables?"

Zheng Siyuan shook his head: "I just don't understand why anyone would like to eat such salty preserved vegetable pork."

"Maybe it's because it goes well with rice." Qin Huai said, "In fact, the chef in our cafeteria's red case is not bad, except that his skills are a little unstable and the preserved vegetable braised pork is always a little salty, but his skills are not bad, just at the level of an ordinary restaurant."

"Of course it can't be compared with Huang Ji, but the restaurants around here all taste similar. Otherwise, I wouldn't eat in my own canteen every day. At least the food safety is guaranteed. Everyone can see how the food is processed every day. It's mainly clean and hygienic."

Zheng Siyuan could only continue to look at the pork with preserved vegetables with melancholy and sigh for his work meals.

Seeing Zheng Siyuan's expression, Qin Huai naturally knew what he was worried about. He looked up at Tan Weian and asked casually, "I met Zang Liang in City A last time, and he said he had a good relationship with you."

"Of course." Tan Weian said, "We are the same age and went to the same class in the same elementary school. At first, Master Zang also worked in Hangzhou, but later Master Zang changed his job to another restaurant, so he transferred to another city."

Qin Huai suddenly realized that they were classmates.

He had previously thought that Tan Weian and Zang Liang were about the same age, but he didn't expect that they were classmates.

"How is Zang Liang's cooking skills?" Qin Huai asked.

Tan Weian thought seriously for a while.

"It depends on who you compare it with." Facing his good brother, Tan Weian's comments were still very pertinent. "Their red cases are different from our white cases. When we were young, we were green, except for you and Zheng Siyuan, who have changed...

"But in their Hong'an area, if they are particularly talented, they can achieve results in their teens, and many of them can become famous and stand on their own in their twenties. Zang Liang is still a little far from being able to stand on his own, but he is considered to be a talented young generation, especially his knife skills, which are really one of the best."

"But if you want to say he is really a genius, he is not. There is a more talented person in Peking, Zhang Guanghang. I don't know if you have heard of him, but you must know Mr. Xia Muqi, the chef who is ranked ninth in the famous chef list."

Qin Huai nodded, indicating that he had heard of it. According to Dong Shi, Mr. Xia loved to curse people and was known as the best troll in Peking. He was of high seniority and very strong, and everyone was afraid of him.

"Zhang Guanghang is Master Xia's apprentice, his only apprentice. He is really...even better than you, Zheng Siyuan."

Qin Huai:......

Man, there's something about your language expression.

"Zang Liang is certainly not comparable to the gods like Zhang Guanghang. He is probably not as good as Sun Jikai from FJ. It's not because he is weaker in strength, but mainly because Sun Jikai is younger than him. But it's hard to say."

"I don't know if that guy surnamed Sun got kicked in the head by a donkey or something, but he wants to study abroad, or go to a business school. People in our line of work don't study abroad. It's useless if you can't cook delicious food. It's a waste of time."

"Let me think of some who are stronger than him..."

Seeing that Tan Weian was about to announce the younger generation who was better than Zang Liang like announcing the names of dishes, Qin Huai hurriedly stopped him and asked: "What about his thickening skills?"

"It should be OK. I'm not sure, but he's definitely better than us. He's from the Red Case." Tan Weian replied. He realized what Qin Huai wanted to do and opened his eyes in disbelief. "You don't want to..."

Qin Huai nodded.

"I was just thinking about whether I could invite Zang Liang to come over and exchange ideas for a while." Qin Huai said very frankly.

Tan Weian was so shocked that the rice in his mouth almost fell out. He quickly swallowed the rice with a few big mouthfuls, not even having time to lick the vegetable leaves off his teeth. He said in surprise: "But he is a famous chef!"

"A genuine chef who specializes in Huaiyang cuisine!"

"What did he come to discuss with us?"

Tan Weian originally thought that it was outrageous enough for Zhiweiju's apprentices to go out for exchanges, but he didn't expect that there would be something even more outrageous.

The chef from the red case department came to the white case canteen to exchange ideas. This was not just against the Tao, this was purely against the ancestors.

Even if we want to be family members in both red and white cases, this is not the way to be family members.

"Seasoning." Qin Huai said as a matter of course, "He told me when we were in City A that he thought the stuffing I made was very beautiful."

"It means he is definitely interested in discussing seasoning with me. And don't you understand what Zheng Siyuan and I just said? The double crab buns are red-case fillings and white-case dim sum. In a sense, they are the same as Guo'er. Guo'er, you know it best. Guo'er is a dim sum made by Master Huang and I."

"I can make dim sum with Master Huang, so why can't the three of us plus Zang Liang work together to study dim sum?"

Qin Huai's matter-of-fact tone and sincere words left Tan Weian speechless for a moment.

What should I do? Tan Weian now actually felt that what Qin Huai said made sense.

But...how can the red case and the white case be put together...these two cannot be mixed together even if they have something in common...

This is what your master taught you...Oh, you don’t have a master.

Zheng Siyuan, say something!

It's time now, don't stare at the extremely salty pork with preserved vegetables, it's not tasty. I also know that Zang Liang's cooking is definitely better than the two famous chefs in Yunzhong Canteen, but you can't just help the evil just to eat something delicious!

What is your persistence as a pastry chef?
Where is your pride in your professional background?
Aren't you going to stand up and say something at this time?
Zheng Siyuan, please say something!

Seeing that the atmosphere was right, Zheng Siyuan slowly moved his eyes away from the pork with preserved vegetables, looked at Tan Weian, and nodded calmly: "I think what Qin Huai said makes sense."

"Whether he is willing to come for the exchange is up to Zang Liang. As long as he is willing to come, everything will be fine."

Tan Weian:?

Zheng Siyuan also did not forget to comfort Tan Weian: "Relax and look at the problem with an inclusive attitude."

Tan Wei’an: …

"It just so happens that you and Zang Liang are childhood friends and classmates, and you two have a good relationship. You can go ask Zang Liang if he is willing to come over in the evening. If he comes, we can help arrange accommodation for him. Sister Hong has several houses in the community. You can move in anytime after you clear out your things."

"Do you still need me to ask?" Tan Weian was already in despair. He was in despair of this world.

"Don't you want to ask?" Qin Huai thought for a moment, "It's okay, I have Zang Liang's WeChat, if you don't want to ask, I will ask."

Tan Weian raised his hand and made a stop gesture.

He stood up, his eyes were deep and his voice was heavy: "Let me ask."

Tan Weian felt that if he didn't have a good time complaining to Zang Liang about Qin Huai and Zheng Siyuan, two mentally ill perverts, he would not be able to sleep tonight.

"Okay, that's a happy decision." Qin Huai said happily, "Tan Weian, why are you standing up? Have you finished eating?"

"No." Tan Weian sat down silently and continued to eat, while frantically organizing words in his mind, waiting to have a hearty complaint with Zang Liang in the evening.

As a result, at night, Tan Weian was hit again.

As a typical red-case chef, Zang Liang gets off work very late.

I don’t get off work until 10:30 pm.

The reason why he got off work so late was that Zang Liang had to help Zang Mu clean up the kitchen counter. As Zang Mu's nephew and only disciple, Zang Liang had to do the work of an assistant even though he was a little prince of knife skills.

This is the case in the chef industry, and every apprentice has gone through this. Those who have more senior and junior brothers will snatch work from each other, after all, there is only so much work, and if it is done by others, there will be nothing for them to do, and if they have no work to do, the master will notice it.

One step after another, the King of Rolls was born.

Tan Weian almost fell asleep while waiting for Zang Liang to get off work, and he was only able to keep going because he wanted to complain.

As a result, just as Tan Weian finished speaking and before he started to complain, Zang Liang readily agreed.

"What?! You actually agreed!" Tan Weian's scream almost broke through the sky. He jumped up from the chair with a look on his face that said, "How could you betray the revolution?"

"What else? Do you want me to agree or not? Qin Huai didn't invite me sincerely? Does he have other options?" Zang Liang's face was full of question marks.

Tan Weian had the same question mark on his face: "He didn't have any other candidates. No, why did you agree? Do you know what the situation is in Yunzhong Canteen now?"

"Do you know how mediocre the two chefs in Yunzhong Canteen are? They are just like chefs in an ordinary restaurant. The braised pork with pickled vegetables was too salty, the scrambled eggs with tomatoes were also average, the stir-fried pork with peppers was too spicy for me, the stir-fried lotus root slices were not crispy enough, and the potato slices were even worse, too greasy."

"But it's really cheap. The price of a fast food meal of two meat dishes and one vegetable dish is only enough to buy one Four Happiness Glutinous Rice Ball."

"No, my point is that the Yunzhong Canteen is now full of plain-cooked chefs. What are you here to discuss?"

"Didn't you just say that the double crab buns needed thickening? I'll do it." Zang Liang said, "Besides, Master Qin's seasoning skills are really high. I worked as his assistant for a day when I was in City A, and I saw his seasoning skills with my own eyes."

"When you told me a few days ago that you were going to lead a team to the Yunzhong Canteen for an exchange, I was really envious. I told you that I had wanted to go there for a long time. Last time, I worked as a helper for Qin Huai for a day in City A. It felt really good."

"Although Qin Huai may not be able to explain it clearly, he does it clearly enough. You don't need to listen to what he says. You can learn a lot by watching him."

"What did you learn?" Tan Weian was confused.

"Thoughts, stuffing depends on ideas." Zang Liang said enthusiastically, "Ingredients vary, and there should be different ways to deal with ingredients in different states."

"I watched him make four-happiness dumplings for two days, and he adjusted the filling according to the state of the ingredients. My master said that Qin Huai definitely has a good tongue, and his tongue can help him find the feeling quickly. But it's just finding the feeling. Thinking is a talent, it's innate. Some people's thinking depends on practice, and some people's thinking is born, Qin Huai is the latter."

Zang Liang became excited as he spoke: "You know, I am very good at knife skills, but our Huaiyang cuisine not only emphasizes knife skills, but also seasoning. My seasoning has never been able to keep up with my knife skills."

"My master said that I had no idea when I was seasoning the food. I didn't find that feeling. I never understood what his feeling was and how he could find it by feeling. It wasn't until I saw Qin Huai mixing the food in City A last time that I suddenly understood what that feeling was. Qin Huai had this feeling, and he had always relied on that feeling to find the idea. Do you understand what I mean by feeling?"

Tan Weian: Damn, such a familiar phrase.

"I don't understand." Tan Wei'an said very honestly, "Seasoning requires some ideas."

Zang Liang: "...You need to practice more."

Tan Wei’an: …

"So, you're willing to come?"

"Of course!" Zang Liang's eyes lit up. "I'll call my master right now and tell him. He will definitely agree."

"Qin Huai said he can help with housing, right? That's even easier. If my master agrees, I'll book a ticket for tomorrow and I'll be there before tomorrow night!"

Tan Weian hung up the phone in a daze.

For some reason, he suddenly felt that the person who understood Qin Huai best in the world had appeared.

Damn, it turns out Qin Huai has been asking whether you understand that feeling or not. Whether you have found that feeling or not is not something he just said casually because he couldn’t explain it clearly. He really has that feeling.

What does it feel like? You all know it.
