Siheyuan: Tanjia Cuisine He Daqing, destroying Yi Zhonghai

He Yuzhu's efforts paid off, and the reputation of He's Restaurant grew. One day, a food critic came to taste several of He Yuzhu's signature dishes and gave high praise. He Yuzhu was filled with pride and gratitude, knowing that he could not have achieved what he has today without He Daqing's careful guidance and support.

Although the business of He's Restaurant is booming, He Yuzhu never relaxes his requirements for himself. He gets up early every day, selects the freshest ingredients, and studies new dishes. He knows that only by continuous improvement can he remain invincible in this industry. He often thinks of the words that He Daqing taught him, which are not only guidance on cooking skills, but also the principles of being a person and doing things.

He Daqing watched He Yuzhu grow up, and he knew that his mission was not only to teach cooking skills, but also to cultivate a young man with a sense of responsibility and enterprising spirit. Whenever he saw He Yuzhu busy in the kitchen, he would feel very satisfied.

The success of He's Restaurant is not only the result of He Yuzhu's efforts, but also the joint efforts of the entire courtyard. Neighbors regard this place as their own home, helping each other and jointly creating this warm family. The story of He Daqing and He Yuzhu is widely circulated in the courtyard and has become a beautiful memory in people's hearts.

One day, He Yuzhu was busy in the kitchen when he heard cheers from outside. He went out and saw that it was He Daqing who brought back a batch of new special ingredients. He Daqing smiled and said to him, "Xiao He, these are the ingredients I have collected for many years, and they are finally useful today. Let's study together and see what new dishes we can make." He knew that every new attempt was a new challenge and a new opportunity. He followed He Daqing with confidence and began a new study and exploration.

On this day, He Yuzhu made a unique spice roast duck, which was full of fragrance and attracted many diners to taste it. Everyone praised the unique flavor of this dish, and He Yuzhu felt full of accomplishment. He knew that he was one step closer to his dream.

He Yuzhu's cooking skills became more and more sophisticated, but he always remained humble and eager to learn, always wanting to learn more skills and experience from He Daqing. One morning, He Yuzhu was about to go to the market to buy food, and He Daqing walked into the kitchen and said, "Xiao He, let's try making a traditional fried rice cake today. This dish may seem simple, but it requires some skills to make it delicious."

He Yuzhu's eyes lit up when he heard the suggestion. He had always been curious and in awe of traditional snacks like fried rice cakes. He knew that seemingly simple dishes often tested the basic skills of the chef. He hurriedly put down the shopping bag in his hand and followed He Daqing to learn attentively.

He Daqing took out a bag of fresh rice cake slices from the cabinet and handed them to He Yuzhu: "Blanch the rice cake slices in hot water first to soften them, so that they will taste better when fried." He Yuzhu took the rice cake slices and thought to himself: blanching is also a key step. He followed He Daqing's instructions and carefully put the rice cake slices into the hot water. After blanching for one minute, he took them out and put them aside for later use.

He Daqing took out some ingredients and explained in detail: "The ingredients for stir-fried rice cakes can be adjusted according to personal taste, but the basic ones are cabbage, carrots, pork slices and green peppers. The key lies in the control of heat and seasoning. Now, let's stir-fry the ingredients first." He Yuzhu watched He Daqing chopping vegetables skillfully and felt a sense of respect and admiration in his heart. He knew that behind all these seemingly simple actions were the experience and skills accumulated by He Daqing over the years.

He Yuzhu began to imitate He Daqing, adding the chopped cabbage, carrots, pork slices and green peppers into the pot one by one and stir-frying them. While frying, he nervously paid attention to the heat and the seasoning, repeating He Daqing's words in his heart: "The heat should not be too high, and each ingredient must be heated evenly."

He Daqing watched He Yuzhu's cooking and nodded from time to time: "Not bad, the heat is well controlled. Now you can add the rice cakes." He Yuzhu poured the blanched rice cake slices into the pot and gently stir-fried them to fully blend the rice cakes with the ingredients. He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that this dish would be successful.

Then, He Daqing signaled He Yuzhu to add soy sauce and salt and continue to stir-fry for a few minutes. He Yuzhu carefully experienced every detail, thinking: let the rice cake absorb the flavor of the seasoning while ensuring its soft and glutinous texture. This is a key step. He operated carefully, not daring to be careless.

A few minutes later, a plate of delicious fried rice cakes came out of the pot. He Yuzhu looked at the dish, feeling nervous and expectant. He asked He Daqing to taste it. He Daqing picked up a piece of rice cake, savored it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, Xiao He, this fried rice cake is very well made, the rice cake is soft and tasty, and the ingredients are delicious. You have mastered the key points."

He Yuzhu was excited and proud when he heard this comment. He knew that this was not only the success of a dish, but also a leap forward in his cooking skills. He looked at He Daqing with gratitude and said, "Uncle, thank you for your guidance over the years. I will continue to work hard and live up to your expectations."

He Daqing smiled and patted his shoulder: "I am also very pleased that you have made such progress. There is no end to the road of culinary skills, only constant exploration and progress. Keep up this attitude, and you will go further."

A few days later, He Yuzhu decided to add this fried rice cake to the menu of He's Restaurant. He carefully prepared the ingredients and made several fried rice cakes according to the method taught by He Daqing for diners to taste. As a result, the fried rice cakes were well received by customers, and many people said that this dish made them find the taste of their childhood. He Yuzhu was filled with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. He knew that his efforts and He Daqing's teachings were not in vain.

In his busy days, He Yuzhu always takes time to ask He Daqing for advice on new dishes and cooking techniques. He knows that behind every dish there is a rich history and culture, and every taste carries the chef's hard work and emotions. He keeps learning and trying, constantly improving his cooking skills.

One night, he suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from outside: "Xiao He, how is business today?" He looked up and saw that it was He Daqing. He Yuzhu hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile: "Uncle, business is very good today. Everyone likes our fried rice cakes."

He Daqing nodded with satisfaction: "Good, good. You did a great job, Xiao He. Keep up this attitude, I believe you will become more and more successful." He Yuzhu felt a warm current in his heart. He knew that He Daqing had been silently supporting him behind his back, giving him endless strength and confidence.
