Chapter 468
At three o'clock in the afternoon on January 1st, the back kitchen of Fenyuan was filled with the aroma of vegetables.

All 17 applicants have arrived, and for the sake of saving time, Jiang Feng will let him prepare the dishes to be made every time a new person arrives before he even has time to report his name.Although there are only 4 stoves in the back kitchen of Fenyuan, there is still enough space for the cooking table and the number of kitchen utensils is sufficient, so it is not a problem for more than a dozen chefs to prepare dishes at the same time.

Jiang Feng, Jiang Jiankang, and Zhang Guanghang also had a very clear division of labor. Jiang Feng was at the cooking station to observe the chefs' handling of ingredients and knife skills, while Jiang Jiankang was at the stove to watch the chefs control the heat.

Zhang Guanghang was the one who looked like an interviewer the most among the three. He stood on the sidelines with a cold face looking through everyone's resumes, and looked up from time to time to see people trying to match their resumes with others.

All the people who were swept by Zhang Guanghang's eyes couldn't help but feel nervous, as if they were back in their school days when they were checked by the dean for classroom discipline.

Jiang Feng was staring intently at the dozen or so chefs who were carefully handling the ingredients at the cooking table. Jiang Feng remembered that when he was recruiting last time, most of the chefs were cooking Kung Pao chicken. A chef's grade test dish that can well reflect the chef's skills.

This time was no exception. Just looking at the ingredients they handled, Jiang Feng could tell that there were at least 10 chefs preparing to make ants climbing trees and Kung Pao chicken.

In this way, it seemed that the two brothers were very different. The staple food they chose was eel.Although the two brothers are quick in handling, compared with other easy-to-handle ingredients, the processing speed of rice field eel is much slower.Jiang Feng had already tasted the dishes of the two who started cooking at the same time, and the two brothers were still fighting by the stove.

It is a very courageous thing to choose a dish that is different from others when applying for a job. After all, most people like to seek stability, and most chefs will use their own special dishes as a bonus after the first round. sub option.

The applicant's information was actually sent to Jiang Feng by Wang Xiulian as early as half a month ago. At that time, it was the time when Zhiwei announced the cover of the magazine, and the traffic volume of Taifeng building surged.Jiang Feng thought that the two old men had the right to make decisions during the interview anyway, so he was lazy and didn't read the document that Comrade Wang Xiulian sent him very carefully.

This also caused him to feel strange to every applicant now.

Thinking of this, Jiang Feng stopped looking at the chefs gathered around the cooking table, and went to Zhang Guanghang's side to read his resume with him.

"Old Zhang, show me the resumes of those two people who just finished." Jiang Feng said.

Zhang Guanghang took out two resumes and handed them to him.

Jiang Feng roughly scanned the resumes, and found that the two chefs not only had average dishes, but also average resumes. They had no unusual experiences, and their special dishes were not special, so they could basically be out.

Jiang Feng returned the resume to Zhang Guanghang: "Then show me the resumes of the two brothers."

Zhang Guanghang skillfully pulled out two resumes, and did not forget to explain: "The restaurant they worked in before was..."

Before Zhang Guanghang finished speaking, he was interrupted by a very eye-catching zigzag sound, which was obviously the sound of boiling hot oil being poured on the vegetables.When Jiang Feng made the fish head with chopped peppers, the last step of pouring oil from the mouth of the fish would also make this sound, but it was not as loud as it is now.

Judging by the intensity of the sound of pouring oil, the intensity of this sound is basically no different from that of thunder on the ground.

Before Jiang Feng had time to raise his head and look towards the stove, he heard a second very eye-catching zila sound, and at the same time as the zila sound came the tangy fragrance.

It is the aroma of eel, the rich sauce aroma is accompanied by a hint of garlic, and the fresh aroma rushes to the face, loudly proclaiming to everyone that a dish with a distinctive personality is out of the pan.

Jiang Feng took a few deep breaths, trying to judge which dish it was by the taste.After searching in his mind to no avail, it is obvious that this dish does not exist in his memory.

"It's shredded eel with oil. It should be made by these two brothers. This dish is one of the signature dishes of their original restaurant." Zhang Guanghang still kept holding his resume.

Jiang Feng took the time to take the resume and quickly glanced at it.

The elder brother is Dong Li, 32 years old, and the younger brother is Dong Shi, 29 years old. Both of them worked in a restaurant called Huangji Restaurant, which Jiang Feng has some impressions as if he had been in "Zhiwei" before.Just when Jiang Feng was about to go down and see what the two brothers were good at, the dishes were served.

Jiang Feng put away his resume in a calm manner, and began to look at the two copies in front of him.

The skills of the two brothers should be taught by the same master, and there is almost no difference in appearance between the two dishes.The oily and slightly curled eel shreds were irregularly placed on the plate, and the bones were missing from the eel shreds. Jiang Feng could tell that the two brothers only took the meat from the belly of the eel.

There is a small ball of white minced garlic in the middle of the shredded eel, exuding a strong garlic fragrance.The emerald green scallions were scattered on the shredded eel like stars, and Jiang Feng could still vaguely see the white pepper powder lying evenly on the shredded eel.

The eels in January are not fat, and the two brothers are not good at arranging the dishes, but this dish still looks attractive.

Whether it is the appearance or the aroma, it is a dish that can make people feel tempted to pick up a piece of eel with chopsticks.

Jiang Feng was the first to pick up a piece of shredded eel with chopsticks, thick oily red sauce, and the oily shine on the shredded eel could be seen more clearly from a closer look, but it didn't feel greasy.Because he had just poured a spoonful of hot oil, Jiang Feng could still see the hot oil with small bubbles on the shredded eel.

Jiang Feng blew a few times, but he was not in a hurry to take it in. The unique smell of eel shredded sauce mixed with the umami of eel lingered on the tip of Jiang Feng's nose.

Brothers Dong Li and Dong Shi stood quietly on the same spot, Dong Shi seemed eager to say something but he didn't dare to make a fuss with Dong Li beside him, so he could only stand quietly with an eager look on his face.

Jiang Jiankang has a wealth of experience in snatching food and is not afraid of being scalded. He just blew a few mouthfuls and saw that the surface of the eel shreds was not covered with small bubbles, then sent the eel shreds to the mouth, and nodded in random approval.

It can be regarded as a recognition of the cooking skills of the two brothers.

Jiang Feng followed closely behind, but his movements were not as bold as Jiang Jiankang's.He tentatively placed the shredded eel in his mouth carefully, and first tentatively felt the temperature with the tip of his tongue before he could put the whole shredded eel into his mouth with confidence.

The taste is strong, but the strong sauce flavor does not overwhelm the umami of the shredded eel itself.The fish meat itself is very delicate, but the skin of the eel is very tough, and you can taste a slight spicy taste when chewed carefully. Under the stimulation of the spicy taste, the shredded eel is more delicious, and the white pepper on the surface is the finishing touch. Effect.

The raw materials and seasoning complement each other, and the firework is properly done, which is undoubtedly a very excellent dish.

It was the first time for Jiang Feng to eat this dish. He tasted the shredded squid eel of the two brothers one by one. Dong Li's was obviously better than Dong Shi's.

After Jiang Feng tasted it, he couldn't help stretching out his chopsticks to eat a few more mouthfuls. In his heart, he already felt that the two brothers could enter the waiting list.

Although Dong Shi is a bit worse, he can also be considered.

Zhang Guanghang was afraid of getting hot, so he was the last one to stretch out his chopsticks. It took a few minutes for Jiang Feng and Jiang Jiankang to eat before stretching out their chopsticks.

After taking a sip each, Zhang Guanghang began to ask questions: "I see from your resume that both of you worked in Huangji Restaurant before. Huangji Restaurant is also a famous restaurant, and its reputation should be much greater than that of Taifenglou. I just tasted it." The skills of the two of you should be taught by Master Huang himself, although it is not mentioned on the resume, but I guess both of you should be apprentices of Master Huang. If this is the case, why did you come to us to apply for the job?"

Hearing Zhang Guanghang ask Jiang Feng such a question, he also found it strange. Logically speaking, both the master and the apprentice would work in the same store.Master Huang Jiang Feng of Huangji Restaurant has also heard a little bit about it. Although he can't be called a master, he is also a well-known chef with superb skills and a few special dishes.

Huangji Restaurant was founded by Master Huang himself, and it should be run by his son now. Even if Master Huang no longer works in the back kitchen because he is old, the apprentices he taught by himself should not leave the restaurant of the master’s house without working. Go to another restaurant to apply for a job.

"Master asked us to come." Dong Shi rushed to speak before Dong Li.

Dong Li glanced at Dong Shi, but Dong Shi didn't dare to speak again, so Dong Li said slowly, "Huangji Restaurant has been transferred."

"Transferred?" Zhang Guanghang was a little surprised. They were all from the Shandong cuisine circle. They generally didn't know much about the news in the south, and most of what they knew came from Pei Shenghua, the king of melons.

Huangji Restaurant is not an old restaurant compared with those old restaurants in Peiping that have a history of nearly a hundred years, but it is also a well-known restaurant that was transferred so suddenly, it can be regarded as a big melon.

"After the master stopped being in charge, the store's business has declined a lot. In addition, the boss is not very good at running the store. In fact, the store has been losing money, so the boss simply sold the entire store. Our Several brothers were introduced to other restaurants by the master, and the master said that the two of us are not good enough in craftsmanship, let us come to Beiping to hone more and see more other things." Dong Li explained.

Hearing what he said, Jiang Feng only felt a little regretful.

In the past few years, the competition in the catering market has become increasingly fierce, and many famous restaurants in the past seem to have no successor. Once the chef is poached or leaves because of old age, they will soon be eliminated by the market.

Survival of the fittest, cruel as it is, has always been the case.

But Zhang Guanghang was not very satisfied with Dong Li's answer: "Since Master Huang asked you to come to Beiping, he must have introduced you to a store, so it shouldn't be our store?"

They realized that they had not received any news from Master Huang.

"Master originally asked us to go to Yongheju, but half a month ago we saw the cover of "Zhiwei" and so..." Dong Shi answered again.

Jiang Feng understood in an instant, so he pigeonholed Yongheju.

In an instant, Jiang Feng looked at Dong Shi very kindly.

Such chatty and evasive words, it seems that they are good material to be friends with Sang Ming.

Taifeng Building needs this kind of talent.

New dishes also need to be introduced.

Shredded eel in oil is obviously much more attractive than Kung Pao Chicken and Ants Climbing Trees.
