Chapter 37 Recipe
"You weigh me, ten pounds of fat intestines, ten pounds of meat, seven pounds of pig head meat, and ten pounds of braised pork knuckles."
Since it was confirmed that he was cheated, Luo Dazhuang has calmed down a lot. He weighed the braised pork one by one, which was a little bit riskier than Su Xiaoxiao's.
Su Ergou patted his chest and said, "We will never be short of money!"
"What price do you plan to sell it for?" Luo Dazhuang asked.
"The big meat is thirty cents, and the rest is forty cents per catty."
Luo Dazhuang was surprised: "Isn't it right? You sell pigs in the water for such a high price?"
Su Xiaoxiao said: "Things are rare but valuable, and my formula and taste are worth the price!"
"Okay, don't blame me if you can't sell it."
It’s strange that someone would buy such an expensive pig.
Kam Kee.
Shopkeeper Sun also came early today and is currently tasting the newly baked dim sum in the cubicle with several chefs.
"How is it?" Shopkeeper Sun asked.
Several chefs looked at each other and shook their heads.
It doesn't taste right.
"It's too sweet." said a cook named Li.
He is a senior cook at Kum Kee. He has been working there for more than ten years, and his cooking skills are said to be pretty good.
"Why is it sweet again?" Shopkeeper Sun frowned, "The pot just now was bland, and this pot is sweet again, so... it's wrong, right?"
Chef Li said: "I can taste the ingredients she used, but I just can't make it taste like my wife's cake."
Chef Wang on the side said: "The ratio of heat and ingredients is also very important. A slight difference can make a huge difference. Our Kam Kee dim sum has always been imitated by others, but can't we make it taste like ours?"
"
The rest of the people nodded.
Shopkeeper Sun said angrily: "The problem now is, someone has made it! It's even more delicious than Kam Kee! Didn't you hear what the guests said?"
"She shouldn't be imitating our shortbread..."
A new cook said weakly.
"Why not!" Shopkeeper Sun glared at him.
The new cook didn't dare to say anything.
"She must have improved our recipe." Another cook named Liu said.
Shopkeeper Sun said coldly: "She knows how to improve, but you can't? Several grown men can't fuck a little village girl. If word spreads, where will our Jinji's face be put?"
After all, Kum Kee is a time-honored brand. If you say that the influence of wife cakes is too great, it won’t be affected. After all, the little fat village girl only sells a few pieces a day.
But it would not be wrong to say that it had no impact at all. More than once, he heard customers comment that their shortbread was not as delicious as his wife's cake.
This is a great shame!
"How about...let's drive her away?" Chef Liu suggested.
"Do you think I don't want to chase you out?" Shopkeeper Sun rolled his eyes and said.
"She saved our guests at Kam Kee, and now she goes out to chase her away. What do you want the guests to think? Besides, she wasn't placed at the front entrance of Kam Kee. She didn't block the way and didn't affect the guests. Why would we chase her away?"
Shopkeeper Sun is a treacherous person, a bit treacherous. After all, he has some business acumen. He knows the importance of the store's image and must not do anything that damages his reputation.
"You guys continue to think about the recipe, and I'll think about it again."
--
There was a long queue at the door of Jin Kee as usual, but soon, an incredible scene happened.
As soon as Su Xiaoxiao's wife cakes were put out, many customers who were queuing up at Kam Kee moved in front of her.
So there was also a small long queue here.
Naturally, it cannot be compared with Kam Kee, but for a vendor who dares to sell dim sum in front of Kam Kee, it is a rare and unique spectacle.
"Girl! Are there any chestnuts today? I didn't eat them yesterday!"
A young man in the team stuck his head out and asked.
"Yes." Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
Xiao Wu went back to her parents' house and gave her mother the copper coins Su Xiaoxiao gave her. Her mother knew that she was having a hard time in her husband's family and refused to take anything. But she couldn't get over Xiao Wu, so she let Xiao Wu do it.
I brought back the chestnuts from home.
"I want to eat chestnuts too!" said a little boy.
"Buy, I'll buy you milk!" an aunt said dotingly. After saying that, she thought of something and asked Su Xiaoxiao, "We won't be able to sell out by then, right?"
Su Xiaoxiao said cheerfully: "I made forty chestnuts today."
Twenty red beans, twenty mung beans, and twenty prunes.
Still a hundred.
The grandfather and grandson got their wish and bought chestnut stuffing.
Shortbread with chestnut filling is a test of cooking skills. Even though it has its own sweetness, it won't work without adding sugar. Adding too much sugar will easily cover its own taste, making it taste different from other sweet fillings.
not much differences.
Su Xiaoxiao grasped it just right, perfectly retaining the aroma and sweetness of chestnuts. It tastes pink and glutinous, with a hint of pastry oil, sweet but not greasy.
"Milk, delicious!" said the little boy.
Other guests also praised the wife cake with chestnut filling.
One hundred units were sold out quickly.
Su Ergou muttered: "Sister, I..."
He hasn’t eaten and broadcasted a few yet!
Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing: "I brought it for you."
She had other tasks today and couldn't make it back in time to cook at noon, so she brought food for herself and Ergou, and also left it for Father Su and the others.
Su Ergou started to pull in his sister's basket.
What is this feeling... a little happy about?
In the past, it was Su Ergou who always gave way to his sister, making people forget that he was also a child in need of love.
Su Ergou successfully found a bowl of wife cake.
"Sister, you eat too."
"I'm going to lose weight, you can eat."
"oh."
Su Ergou stuffed the pancake into his mouth.
After packing her things, Su Xiaoxiao planned to leave.
At this moment, shopkeeper Sun walked over leisurely.
He put his hands behind his back and looked like he was taking a leisurely stroll: "Is it sold out?"
Su Xiaoxiao was sure that he was talking to her, and hummed in a neutral tone: "Sold out."
Shopkeeper Sun said with a smile: "You... always sell things near Jin Kee, aren't you a bit stealing business?"
Su Xiaoxiao said: "If we two countrymen can also steal your Jin Kee's business, then your Jin Kee's business will be too easy to steal."
This is a slap in the face, isn't it?
Shopkeeper Sun coughed a few times: "I see that you, little girl, are young and it is not easy for you to make a living with your younger brother. The weather will get colder and colder, and you will not be able to set up a stall even if it snows heavily. In this case, why don't you sell the pancakes to
Kam Kee.”
"Oh?" Su Xiaoxiao looked at him as if a little surprised.
Shopkeeper Sun raised his chin and said, "You sell them for ten cents each, but I think your pancakes are only worth three or two cents. Jin Kee pays five cents, which is two hundred per day!"
Su Xiaoxiao took Su Ergou and left without looking back.
Shopkeeper Sun: "..."
Was he ignored by a girl?!
He stamped his feet in anger.
"Liuwen! Is Liuwen head office here?"
"Seven, seven articles! No more!"
"Hey - you can't sell it for ten cents, can you?"
People move further and further away.
Shopkeeper Sun was worried!
"How about you set a price and sell the formula?"
