Not long after Yao Ye left, this guy Gu He came up again.
"Shop Owner Xiao, I don't know how this mung bean is made into Mung Bean Cakes. I hope Shop Owner Xiao can teach me."
When Gu He came to ask him about Mung Bean Cakes, Xiao Cheng felt like crying.
Please, Master, stop torturing me.
But on the surface, he still had to pretend to be smiling.
"How do I put this? The materials I use are different from yours, so it's possible that you are refining alchemy, but my method is not like this."
Gu He nodded in understanding, and then asked.
"I wonder if the store manager can teach me your method?"
"No, because no one else can learn this."
thinking.
"This is all the power of the system. If everyone could make pastries, there would be such magical pastries, and there wouldn't be so many magical effects."
However, he still thought of a reason and said.
"Master Gu He, there are some things that you can't just learn if you want to. It's like wearing shoes. You can't just wear a pair of shoes when you see them. Whether they fit your feet or not is the key. Logically, my method is the same as yours."
"I understand, it was me who was abrupt."
Gu He seemed to understand something and said apologetically.
"No need to apologize to me, you are just a person who likes to study alchemy."
Seeing Xiao Cheng's nonchalant look, Gu He also sighed secretly.
"Shop Owner Xiao's magnanimity is indeed extraordinary."
"Then Shop Owner Xiao can I work in your store?"
This sentence stunned Xiao Cheng.
It seems that there are security guards and waiters in the store, but they only need a cook to help.
At this time, the system prompt sounded.
This prompt sound made Xiao Cheng speechless. The mission really came on time.
Side Quest: Ask the host to recruit a kitchen helper Quest Reward: A random pastry recipe Quest Failure: Gu He's favorability towards you is reduced to -99999
Quest Time: No time limit, the sooner the better.
After quickly scanning the task, he secretly rolled his eyes.
Isn't this the one who wants him to recruit Gu He as a kitchen helper in the store?
Alas, it seems that being a store manager is not that easy.
"Okay, I'll give you a chance. Just give me a job as a helper. Get up early every morning and follow me to help in the kitchen. I'll give you as much as you can learn by then."
Hearing Xiao Cheng say this, a look of joy appeared on Gu He's face.
"Then I really want to thank Shop Owner Xiao. I can't thank you enough."
When he saw Gu He, he wanted to bow and thank him, and quickly supported him and said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll take you to the kitchen later to show you around, and then start making pastries. I'll teach you step by step."
"Okay, Shop Owner Xiao"
Obviously Gu He has classified himself as an employee of Ruyi Zhai.
At this time, the system's task prompt also sounded, and Xiao Cheng decisively chose to receive Quest Reward.
bite! Congratulations to the host for getting the pastry Sticky Rice Strips (sweet) formula. It is actually Sticky Rice Strips. This thing is a delicious snack. It seems that I am in luck.
Then Xiao Cheng came to the kitchen with Gu He who looked inexplicably excited.
When Gu He saw the scene in the kitchen, he was shocked by some things here.
"This... there are really many things I have never seen before."
Seeing Gu He's face full of surprise and excitement, Xiao Cheng waved his hands indifferently.
"Okay, now we have to make new pastries. Watch carefully. I will only teach you once."
Gu He nodded hurriedly.
"I will definitely concentrate on my studies."
Then he reviewed the actions of Sticky Rice Strips transmitted by the system in his mind.
The corners of his mouth could not help but rise slightly, obviously quite confident.
First prepare the main materials for making Sticky Rice Strips.
Of course, he had already purchased the raw materials needed to make Sticky Rice Strips from Xiao Dian.
"This is Maltose, this is oil, this is glutinous rice flour, and white sugar, and hot water."
As Xiao Cheng introduces these materials one by one to Gu He next to him.
Gu He also didn't blink, listening attentively to Xiao Cheng's explanation.
"Next, pour Maltose into a small pot, and then add hot water."
"Do you know why water is heated in Maltose?"
Suddenly Xiao Cheng asked Gu He.
"This Maltose is extremely sticky when poured. I think it's because of the sticky feeling when the flowers bloom."
Although Gu He's answer is a bit unstandard, it is very correct.
This made Xiao Cheng, the master, nod with satisfaction.
"You're right, then after we stir it, start heating it and bring it to a boil Maltose"
Seeing Gu He listening carefully, Xiao Cheng smiled.
"Pour the glutinous rice flour into a basin, then pour in boiling Maltose water, knead it into a dough, and let it sit for twenty minutes."
After a while, the dough was kneaded and set aside to chew.
"After it's ready, we can make the semi-finished product of Sticky Rice Strips, keep an eye on it."
Gu He nodded, staring at Xiao Cheng's hand without blinking.
Follow Xiao Cheng to divide this large piece of dough into small dough and roll it into square or rectangular dough pieces.
Then Gu He saw Xiao Cheng cut the noodle block into long strips as thick as a thumb.
Then roll this long strip into a round shape.
Finally, cut it into small sections, add more oil to the pan, and add more oil.
In this step, the Sticky Rice Strips should not be fried too high, just a low fire is enough.
When Sticky Rice Strips was bombed, Xiao Cheng confessed to Gu He.
"When frying, be sure to fry slowly over low heat until golden brown. Take it out immediately and put it aside to control the oil."
"I understand, store manager"
I don't know where Gu He found the paper, but he had already started writing something on it, leaving Xiao Cheng speechless.
At this time, Sticky Rice Strips has been fried. It is golden, beautiful and exudes an attractive aroma.
The freshly fried Sticky Rice Strips is actually edible, but the taste may be a bit monotonous.
While the Sticky Rice Strips is still hot, immediately sprinkle with white sugar, shake the Iron Tray so that the Sticky Rice Strips evenly adheres to the White Sugar and let it cool, the Sticky Rice Strips is ready.
After a while, Xiao Cheng wiped the sweat from his head and said.
"All the Sticky Rice Strips have been made. Master Gu He, come and try the Sticky Rice Strips I made."
"Okay, then I'll try it."
He reached over and picked up a small stick of Sticky Rice Strips, which was still stained with crystal-clear white sugar particles.
Click!
As Sticky Rice Strips was bitten by the teeth, a taste of Maltose mixed with white sugar was mixed in the mouth, as well as the slightly sticky texture of glutinous rice flour, which was very good.
"Manager, your Sticky Rice Strips is really delicious, but it's a little too sweet."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu He suddenly seemed to have an epiphany in his mind. He suddenly understood all the unknown knowledge about practicing Elixir Formula.
"Hahaha, I understand everything, I know what to do"
Seeing Gu He suddenly laughing, Xiao Cheng was startled.
"I'll go, Master Gu He, what are you doing??"
The next moment, Gu He excitedly held his hand, and the excitement on his face could not be concealed.
"Manager, thank you so much. You are my reincarnated mentor. After taking Sticky Rice Strips just now, I know how to deal with all the obstacles in alchemy."
What Gu He said made Xiao Cheng a little confused.
What's going on? Sticky Rice Strips is so awesome?
It's so powerful that I had an epiphany after eating a small stick. Master Gu He, I can only say 666.
"Ahem, calm down, don't be so excited."
"Store manager, I need to go back and retreat for a few days to verify my ideas."
"No problem, master, walk slowly"
Gu He's expression of excitement was palpable, and he hurried out of the store and hurried in one direction.
Xiao Cheng, who was in the back kitchen, breathed a sigh of relief.
"This guy is gone, but is this Sticky Rice Strips really so powerful?"
At this time Xiao Dian spoke up.
Sticky Rice Strips Although there are opportunities for people to have enlightenment, it also depends on their own opportunities. Before the opportunity comes, enlightenment is impossible. "Haha, just say it depends on luck. It's just a big lie."
"By the way, how much does this Sticky Rice Strips cost per pound?"
Sticky Rice Strips is priced at eighty Gold Coins/per catty. "Eighty Gold Coins per catty is just fine. I'd better put it on the shelves as soon as possible."
If they knew the terrifying effect of Sticky Rice Strips, they would probably go crazy.
