Food: Taking the twins to kindergarten to be chefs

Chapter 216 Eyes are rulers

In the activity room.

The cool breeze from the air conditioner brings a pleasant feeling of coolness.

In this open space, long tables are arranged in an orderly manner, and each table is surrounded by many small stools with unique shapes.

On the table, the ingredients for making custard mooncakes are placed in an orderly manner. The golden custard fillings and the light yellow custard complement each other, exuding a faint milky fragrance...

Various mooncake molds are neatly arranged on the side, and the styles are mainly simple and elegant.

Teachers from different classes dressed in different styles of Hanfu, like fairies from time-to-time, stood in their respective class areas, with warm smiles on their faces, enthusiastically guiding parents and children to find their seats and assisting them to sit down one by one. .

Hundreds of parents and children were chattering, and if one person said something, the entire large activity room would almost be disrupted.

Fortunately.

The projector was turned on by Huang Jun, and a greedy food picture was projected on the white curtain in front.

This moment made the children forget about the noise. They all turned their eyes to the curtain and looked at the food pictures attentively.

So do parents!

In the food picture shown above, the mooncakes are arranged in an orderly manner on a delicate porcelain plate. The golden skin exudes an attractive luster under the soft light. One of the mooncakes is cut in half, revealing The light yellow custard flowed to the heart, and the flow of the heart was like a ray of soft sunshine quietly falling on the white dinner plate...

Just looking at it is enough to arouse everyone's deep desire for delicious food...

Many children had particularly sharp eyes and recognized this tempting mooncake at a glance, shouting excitedly: "Custard-filled mooncake!"

"Yes, yes, it's custard mooncake!" Those children who had tasted this mooncake were even more surprised and nodded in agreement.

"Are we going to make custard mooncakes today?" Xu Sijun asked curiously.

"Probably! Otherwise, Chef Huang wouldn't have posted pictures of this mooncake..." Qu Qing guessed, and at the same time glanced at the ingredients on the table, she said with determination: "Besides, these from the table Judging from the ingredients, it must be the custard mooncake! ”

"..."

For a while…

The entire activity room became lively again, and everyone was talking about this issue.

Qingqing and Weiwei sat quietly on the small chairs, with their legs together and their elbows resting on the table. Then they each held their chins with their hands, looking unblinkingly at the distance not far ahead. 's dad.

Although they couldn't stay with their father, they didn't feel any loss in their hearts because their father was right in front of them, visible to them.

that's nice!

It’s really good!

"Good morning, parents and children! Today, our kindergarten has its first parent-child cooking activity. Here, I sincerely thank all parents for their enthusiastic participation and strong support."

Huang Jun walked up to the stage, and wherever he looked, he saw innocent smiling faces and eyes full of expectation.

At this moment, the focus of the entire activity room was focused on him.

"Good morning Huang Chushu!"

"Good morning, Qingqing father!"

"Good morning, Chef Huang!"

As Teacher Huang Jun's cordial greetings rang out, the children rushed to respond, crisp children's voices came and went, and the parents also smiled and nodded.

Qingqing and Weiwei also shouted excitedly in unison: "Good morning, Daddy!"

Hearing the voices of the two babies, Huang Jun couldn't help but have a warm smile on his face. He turned his head and looked gently at Qingqing and Weiwei who were sitting at a table under the stage.

The two little guys were also looking up at him.

Their eyes met their father's, and slight dimples appeared on their cheeks.

Huang Jun winked at them, gave them a warm strength, and then re-engaged in the next activities.

He continued: "Parents and children, you are so smart! Yes, what we are going to make together this morning is the delicious custard mooncake. However, due to limited time, I cannot show them all on site. The production steps, but please rest assured, I will try my best to explain every key step to everyone to ensure that everyone can make their own mooncakes. After the activity is over, I will ask the head teachers of each class to send the production video. Go to the class group and parents can look back when they arrive.”

As soon as this was said, the children and parents who guessed correctly were very excited!
The custard mooncake is one of the most delicious mooncakes they have ever tasted.

That light yellow liquid, that sweet taste...

hmm~
Very good indeed!
How could they not be excited now that they learned that they could learn to make this delicious mooncake from Huang Jun? How can you be unhappy?
After all, with Huang Jun, a cooking expert, personally guiding them, their chances of overturning are definitely very low!

As for the taste...

It shouldn't be bad...

Pengpeng shouted happily: "Wow, that's great! Huang Chushu is going to teach us how to make custard mooncakes. From now on, I will eat custard mooncakes every day."

Sissi said obediently: "Huang Chushu, I will definitely learn it seriously and try to make mooncakes as delicious as you!"

Qu Qing excitedly interjected: "Haha, that's great! When I learn it, I will cook it for my relatives and let them have a taste of my craftsmanship!"

Lin Weilin couldn't wait to urge: "Chef Huang, let's start quickly. I can't wait to taste the custard mooncakes made by myself!"

"..." Seeing the scene gradually becoming a little chaotic, Huang Jun couldn't help feeling a little panicked.

Unexpectedly, the children and parents were already in chaos before the activity started.

"Parents and children, please be quiet." At this moment, Liu Suyu stood up next to her. She looked at everyone in the audience with a smile: "Otherwise, Chef Huang will not be able to continue teaching everyone how to make delicious custard liquid heart. It’s mooncakes.”

After hearing Liu Suyu's words, the originally noisy children and parents gradually became quiet.

Seeing this, Huang Jun couldn't help but cast a grateful look at Liu Suyu, thanking her for her timely intervention to maintain order.

He looked at the parents and children in the audience and said, "Okay, parents and children, next, I want to explain in detail how to make this custard mooncake."

"First of all, the first step in making custard mooncakes is to prepare salted egg yolks. Here, I strongly recommend that you choose salted eggs marinated in black charcoal, because this kind of salted eggs has the strongest aroma. To make 12 mooncakes, you need 4 A salted egg yolk, let’s think about it this way.”

"Next, we need to lightly soak the salted egg yolk with corn oil to prevent it from drying out, and soak it again with white rice wine to remove the fishy smell of the salted egg yolk, and then put the processed salted egg yolk into the baking pan At this time, please note that you must preheat the oven to 160 degrees. After the preheating time is 10 minutes, place the baking sheet in the middle layer of the oven and turn on the upper and lower fire functions, but please remember not to turn on the cyclone function... "

The words have not yet fallen.

The projection screen behind Huang Jun has quietly changed, and the detailed operation steps unfold like a scroll, clearly presented in front of everyone.

Everyone raised their heads and focused their eyes on the curtain, wanting to imprint the steps deeply in their minds.

In order not to forget it later, some parents even took out their mobile phones and took pictures of these steps.

With Huang Jun's step-by-step explanation, all the preliminary preparation procedures were explained.

Everyone listened attentively, was enlightened, and full of expectations for the upcoming moon cake relief.

Huang Jun continued: "Dear parents and children, now we are about to enter the last step - making moon cakes. Please operate carefully and divide the custard filling in front of you into twelve parts, each weighing about 20 grams. "

As he spoke, he picked up a small knife and skillfully and accurately divided the piece of custard filling on the table into twelve parts, and then rounded them one by one to form custard balls of even size.

Looking at the custard balls that were almost identical in shape and size, the parents present showed expressions of surprise.

"Huang Chef, are these custard balls 20 grams each?" Qu Qing asked curiously.

Huang Jun smiled slightly and replied confidently: "It should be."

"If you have any questions, we can weigh it and take a look!"

Liu Suyu thoughtfully brought an electronic scale and helped weigh each custard ball carefully. The results showed that the weight of each custard ball was exactly 20 grams.

This time.

The parents were all amazed and at the same time admired Huang Jun's superb control.

"Chef Huang, how did you do this?" Li Xiuxian asked curiously.

Huang Jun replied with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing special, it's just accumulated experience over the years. My eyes are like rulers, and I can accurately judge the size of each portion; my hands are like scales, and I can feel the weight of each portion." As long as you put your heart into it, you can achieve this level.”

The eyes are the ruler and the hands are the scales. This saying is really profound...

The parents were completely impressed by Huang Jun's craftsmanship.

The children also thought Huang Jun was super powerful, and some secretly expressed that they would like Huang Jun and become an excellent chef when they grow up.

Huang Jun, who had no idea what the children were thinking, took the filling out of the mold and put it into the prepared bowl.

Then, he picked up a piece of custard filling, made a small hole in the middle with his fingertips, and put in a piece of custard filling.

"Now, we need to use the tiger's mouth to gently close the mouth to ensure that the custard filling completely wraps the filling, and then roll it into a round shape until the surface is smooth and seamless. This can prevent the filling from leaking during the baking process."

He completed this action skillfully, and then repeated the operation until all the custard filling was perfectly wrapped with the filling.

"Next, we deal with the pie crust." He picked up a piece of pie crust dough: "We also divide the pie crust into twelve portions, each portion is about 25 grams, and roll it into a round shape. When wrapping the pie crust, we also use the method of wrapping the crust with milk. Use the same technique as the yellow stuffing to ensure that each layer is tightly adhered.”

He demonstrated how to wrap the pie crust around the custard filling to ensure that the inside of the mooncake has clear layers and no air enters.

"Finally, we have to use a mold to press out a beautiful shape." He picked up the mooncake mold and gently pressed it on the dough wrapped with fillings: "Look, a beautiful mooncake will come out!"

The children and parents were all eager to give it a try.

only…

Many parents have difficulties when dividing the stuffing in the first step.

They really have no intuitive concept of 20 grams...

With helpless expressions on their faces, "I can't do this, I can't do it", they all looked at Huang Jun and asked in confusion: "Huang Chu, 20 grams, 25 grams, how much is this?"

Huang Jun comforted them with a smile: "It's okay. If you have doubts about the weight, don't worry. The electronic scale will be your most effective assistant, and can accurately help you weigh the required 20 grams of fillings and 25 grams of crust. "

With that said, he thoughtfully handed them the electronic scale.

In order to make the mooncakes made by parents and children with these scumbag craftsmanship edible and delicious!
Huang Jun can only come up with this solution, which is to try to standardize and normalize all operating steps.

How many salted egg yolks to use? Use measuring cups to measure various ingredients, and use an electronic scale to determine the grams of fillings and dough.

Hey!
Teaching is not easy, just do it and cherish it!
