The fernted rice with stead buns have already t the standard, so during the busy breakfast period, let’s not allocate ti for them; we can make them in the afternoon if there’s ti.
Qin Huai kneaded the dough for the Three at Buns first.
He hadn’t made Three at Buns for so ti. When he first discovered the recipe, Qin Huai made it for a period. The premium three filling buns once dominated the pastry nu of Huang Ji, but were soon replaced by guo’er.
Recently, Qin Huai was busy cutting radishes at Cao Guixiang’s ho, so he didn’t make many snacks. If there’s muscle mory for making Four Happiness glutinous rice this period, then Three at Buns indeed beca unfamiliar.
But it’s okay, Qin Huai is skilled.
He had been making Three at Buns for many years, and after discovering the recipe, he learned many small techniques, improving the previous recipe.
After kneading the dough, seeing An Youyou hadn’t finished cutting the ingredients, Qin Huai leisurely opened the ga panel, found the illustration section, and started watching the Three at Buns video tutorial.
What to do if a snack becos unfamiliar after not making it for a long ti?
It doesn’t matter, just watch the tutorial.
Once you finish watching, it won’t be unfamiliar anymore.
Returning to Yunzhong Restaurant is nice, as the old employees here all know Qin Huai’s quirks, allowing him to open the ga panel at any ti without any concerns.
At Huang Ji, if Qin Huai wanted to check tasks casually, watching video tutorials had to be done in the restroom.
The employees at Huang Ji weren’t as accepting as those at Yunzhong Restaurant, as the chefs at Huang’s Kitchen hadn’t really t Qin Luo and couldn’t be brainwashed by Qin Luo’s phrase, "My brother has always been like this; it’s his habit. He always teases this way."
An Youyou occasionally glanced at Qin Huai as she minced the at filling, wondering why he stood there daydreaming. It felt strange, but upon reconsideration, seed normal.
That’s just how Master Qin is; it’s his habit.
An Youyou continued to seriously mincing the at filling.
Qin Huai spent about ten minutes skimming through the Three at Buns video tutorial. Once he reviewed and felt confident, he went over to check the ingredients An Youyou was cutting.
How to put it, it was very normal.
It’s the level of an average helper in a regular restaurant.
Unfortunately, Qin Huai’s previous assistants were anything but ordinary.
His previous assistants were apprentices from Zhiwei Restaurant and full-ti employees of Huang Ji, with even a direct disciple of Huang Shengli among them.
When he returned to the village to make Four Happiness glutinous rice, he managed to find a few people with decent knife skills, especially since the dish didn’t require high knife skills, so Qin Huai didn’t mind much.
The Three at Buns have a more complex filling, requiring higher knife skills from the assistants, revealing a distinctive sense of disparity.
Indeed, it’s hard to go from luxury to simplicity.
"That’s not how you hold the knife." Newly having learned the correct way to hold a knife, Master Qin began to share his insights from the past two days, "You see, holding the knife like that with the blade facing inward is not the right posture."
"With the wrong posture, your force application points are off. Not only do you exert from the wrist but also from the upper arm. Over ti...oh, you’re used to it too, but it’s better to correct the posture."
An Youyou, a bit perplexed, followed Qin Huai’s instructions.
Three minutes later, An Youyou couldn’t hold the knife anymore.
Qin Huai felt at ease.
Great, turns out he’s not the only one who forgets how to hold a knife while learning.
"There should be radishes in the storage. Go practice cutting them. Leave the rest to ," Qin Huai pointed to the already partially prepared ingredients by An Youyou.
What he needed to do was finely chop the unfinished at filling twice more, which was low in technicality but manageable.
An Youyou went to the storage to find radishes.
"Rember to count how many radishes are left. If there are not many, have Huang Xi contact the supplier in the morning to deliver a few hundred pounds of fresh radishes by 4 PM; the quality need not be top-notch but must be fresh, as I need them."
"Understood, Master Qin."
Qin Huai continued mincing the at, and once done, began preparing the filling.
The master-level filling preparation gave Qin Huai an even deeper understanding and ticulous control over the Three at Buns filling.
Qin Huai found the Master Level truly distinct from other levels. If the progression from Basic to Interdiate felt like minor improvents, and Interdiate to Advanced achieved a small breakthrough, then Advanced to Master Level was a qualitative leap.
After reaching the Master Level in filling preparation, Qin Huai began to see problems visually.
Literal visual inspection.
Whether the filling was good or bad could be determined with a glance.
This is a result of extrely rich experience accumulation.
Quite mysterious; it clearly only took a mont for an Advanced to Master Level transition, yet Qin Huai rarely could discern this directly when his skill was only Advanced.
Truly, Master Level lives up to its na.
After making a beautiful batch of filling, Qin Huai couldn’t resist taking a photo, sending it to Cao Guixiang, Zheng Siyuan, Huang Shengli, Zheng Da, and Tan Weian in succession.
Too beautiful!
With the filling prepared, Qin Huai started cooking the filling.
Before long, the aroma of the Three at Buns filling spread through the kitchen, intensifying with stirring, drawing the attention of An Youyou, who was diligently slicing radishes as instructed by Qin Huai.
It slled so good.
An Youyou thought to herself.
Could it be that she hadn’t eaten snacks made by Master Qin for too long? She felt today’s filling slled especially fragrant, the best she’d ever slled, tempting her to take a spoonful from the pot to taste.
Clearly, before, when Qin Huai was at Yunzhong Restaurant, the kitchen daily had the aroma of Three at Buns and Five Fillings Buns. Even during his brief return after exchanging at Huang Ji, when he prepared Three at Buns for a few days, An Youyou had been imrsed in the scent of Three at and Five Fillings Buns for a long period.
