Isn’t it too hasty to let an apprentice handle such a banquet dish?!

But... this is Wang Yulong’s arrangement!

As the person in charge of the kitchen, in the absence of the owner, this is the highest directive.

Fu Yu had no hesitation. He had already reviewed the classic old flavor recipe for the specific cooking process of this stuffed tofu.

He also referred to Chef Liu Zhangpeng’s techniques from before, clearly understanding the cooking method of this dish and some details to pay attention to.

The ingredients needed for stuffed tofu are very simple.

But the simpler the ingredients, the harder it is to create a fancy and delicious dish.

Especially since there is a step in cooking this dish that really tests the chef’s skills; without repeated practice, it cannot be done well.

That’s carefully stuffing the seasoned meat into the tender tofu.

If it were before last night, Fu Yu certainly wouldn’t have been as confident as he is now.

But now, Fu Yu is very calm, without a shred of timid evasion.

Upon receiving the instructions, he immediately stood at the kitchen counter and took over the cooking duties.

The preparatory work by the kitchen helpers had all been completed.

Fu Yu checked and found that he only needed to cut the tofu into pieces and then stuff them.

”Chef Wang, I’ll handle it, please watch over me!”

Fu Yu placed the tofu on the cutting board, holding the knife in his right hand, and turned to look at Wang Yulong.

Wang Yulong nodded!

On the surface, he seemed confident of victory, but in his heart, he was extremely nervous!

Nervous!

Suffocating!

Wang Yulong discreetly took a deep breath, waiting for the cooking to begin.

He had already planned in his mind how to guide Fu Yu in completing the cooking of the entire dish.

In case of a real mistake, how to make up for it.

After spending this time together, Wang Yulong still had quite a bit of confidence in Fu Yu’s learning and imitation abilities.

Although Fu Yu was somewhat clumsy in the stuffing operation, through these two days of practice, his progress was evident to all.

The hardest part of stuffed tofu is definitely the stuffing.

In terms of technique, Fu Yu’s speed was somewhat slow, but fortunately, he was meticulous. As long as he could complete it smoothly, the result would be nice.

However, the only uncertain part is that the schedule is quite tight.

Today’s dishes are all new, and with the owner not around, he got a burn, busying himself with treating it, and didn’t have the chance to guide Fu Yu’s cooking hand by hand like usual.

Now he could only hope for Fu Yu’s culinary talent and solid cooking foundation.

At the same time, Liu Zhangpeng was busy and sweating profusely but couldn’t help paying attention to Fu Yu’s operation.

He genuinely acknowledged Fu Yu’s culinary skills and really thought this young man was very excellent, quite good.

But he felt quite conflicted about Wang Yulong showing so much favor to Fu Yu.

Letting an apprentice who has never handled this dish before take charge? Isn’t this too risky?!

Because stuffed tofu really tests a chef’s cooking methods, and the skill of stuffing is highly demanding.

To perfectly execute this dish, the more practiced the stuffing skill, the better!

And now, with time being particularly tight, naturally, the faster, the better.

It has to be done well and quickly.

The difficulty is still significant.

Especially since this dish is the restaurant’s signature, drawing in many customers; its appearance, aroma, and taste must all be impeccable.

The restaurant offers a brand-new menu every day, which is a major feature of our business.

To gain publicity and build a reputation, we must ensure that every dish’s cooking process goes off without a hitch.

And the signature dish is, of course, of utmost importance.

This particular order called directly for six servings of stuffed tofu.

It was clear the customer came specifically for this dish.

Being able to point out the restaurant’s signature dish accurately shows the customer is very familiar with the restaurant’s offerings, at least having eaten it before and really loving the dish.

And the more familiar the customer, the higher the requirements for the food.

So, this preparation holds extraordinary significance and is of considerable difficulty.

The great level of difficulty in this particular cooking task was exactly what worried Liu Zhangpeng the most.

Can an apprentice really handle it?

Has the master really panicked?

Letting an apprentice who has never cooked this dish take direct charge!

Clutching at straws?

At this moment, Liu Zhangpeng’s feelings were very complex, not just because he was worried about accidents, but because he himself was genuinely a bit out of his depth.

As a chef in the restaurant, Liu Zhangpeng was flustered when a new order came in earlier.

He was very worried!

Time is tight, and the task is heavy.

With the owner absent and the master injured, the entire kitchen was relying on him alone.

The workload was immense, and the risk factor was high.

In such a special situation, he alone was powerless to handle everything.

But the front-of-house customers were unaware of the kitchen’s plight.

Customers came in to dine, arriving at mealtimes to fill their stomachs; who cares if the kitchen has any difficulties?

But...

The order list at his side was truly unmanageable.

Stuffed tofu is particularly labor-intensive.

Making one stuffed tofu dish could cost him the chance to prepare three or four different dishes simultaneously.

He wanted to manage the entire restaurant’s order list, but was simply unable to.

So Wang Yulong decided to take a gamble and very riskily chose to have Fu Yu assist in taking orders and cooking.

This isn’t about trust or distrust.

At this critical moment, there was no other better option.

With his mind cluttered with thoughts, Liu Zhangpeng couldn’t help but steal glances at Fu Yu while busy.

He watched Fu Yu head to the kitchen counter with a confident look on his handsome face!

At this moment, Liu Zhangpeng felt an unexpected sense of envy.

He was envious!

Envious of Fu Yu’s fearless and determined attitude and spirit.

The fearless are the ignorant.

The less one knows about depth, the stronger the psyche.

But could Fu Yu really be unaware of the depth?

Certainly not.

His confidence stemmed from his understanding of his cooking abilities.

From repeated cooking practice in the teaching practice classes!

Fu Yu expressed genuine appreciation for Wang Yulong’s trust.

So, during cooking, his attitude was very proactive, and his operations very meticulous.

Observing Fu Yu’s proactive and vibrant attitude, full of confidence.

Wang Yulong nodded approvingly.

Excellent!

Truly excellent!

This is the demeanor that an outstanding chef should have!

A good attitude is essential for cooking delicious food.

After all, working in the kitchen is busy, dirty, and greasy; without a good attitude, it’s hard to endure.

Control over operational details during cooking directly affects the cooking outcome.

Wang Yulong was very satisfied with Fu Yu’s attitude.
