Chapter 438: Are steamed bread also limited in quantity?
"Wild vegetable dumplings? What's so delicious about them!"
Director Song vaguely remembered that the warehouse purchased a batch of wild vegetables. They were so cheap that they were almost free. The original plan was to use them to make wild vegetable porridge.
I didn't expect that Chen Jun would ask me to make some wild vegetable dumplings.
Nowadays, ordinary people often go out of the city to dig some wild vegetables, which can be used to make porridge, stir-fry, or make steamed buns.
However, the taste of vegetable steamed bread is not very good, and those who live in a family with slightly better conditions are unwilling to eat it.
For example, in the courtyard, families like Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong are reluctant to eat wild vegetables.
But in the home of my third uncle Yan Bugui, wild vegetables are also quite common.
There is no way, Yan Bugui earns little money and has to live frugally.
"The wild vegetables have to be cooked by different people. I plan to make vegetable steamed bread like wild vegetable dumplings. Um... there's no point in saying more. Come to the kitchen before mealtime and I'll bring you a few more. I guarantee that the taste will satisfy you." Chen Jun felt that words were not enough, so he didn't explain much.
Director Song may not believe that wild vegetables are delicious, but he believes in Chen Jun’s cooking skills!
Since Chen Jun said so, Director Song nodded vigorously: "Then I will wait for the lunch."
After returning to the cafeteria, Chen Jun asked the kitchen workers to start processing the wild vegetables.
According to normal production, the best taste is achieved when wild vegetables and white flour are mixed together.
But if this is done, the price of wild vegetable dumplings will be the same as white flour steamed buns.
Faced with wild vegetable dumplings and white flour buns, the workers in the steel rolling mill will definitely choose the white flour buns!
Therefore, Chen Jun planned to improve it by mixing two-grain flour and wild vegetables together to make vegetable steamed bread.
In this way, the price of vegetable steamed bread can be lowered, allowing more people to taste it.
Ordinary steamed bread has a hard texture, and even if it is just steamed, it will still have some crumbs when eaten.
Adding wild vegetables can just make up for the lack of taste.
In order to make the vegetable steamed bread more delicious, Chen Jun added some animal oil and rapeseed oil when kneading the dough.
These two oils are very fragrant in themselves, and they are even more so when mixed together.
"Hiss, how come I can smell the fragrance right after putting this vegetable steamed bread in the steamer?"
Sha Zhu walked around the steamer twice and muttered in disbelief.
Just now when Chen Jun was kneading the dough, he happened to be cooking and did not learn how to make steamed bread.
Because Sha Zhu felt that steamed corn bread did not require much technical skills and he could steam qualified corn bread himself.
But at this time, Sha Zhu realized that something was wrong.
This smells so delicious, doesn’t it?
Not only Sha Zhu thought so, but the people in the kitchen also had the same idea.
The steel mill has made vegetable steamed bread before, but the taste is just average and it doesn’t sell very well.
He Daqing made it twice before being stopped by the canteen director. From then on, he only made wild vegetable porridge with the wild vegetables he purchased.
Because of this, the people in the kitchen will subconsciously think that vegetable steamed bread is not very good.
However, He Daqing is He Daqing and Chen Jun is Chen Jun, and the people in the kitchen are very clear about the difference between the two.
Although the vegetable steamed buns have not been steamed yet, the people in the kitchen have already started planning.
This time, we only steamed three steamed buns, which made about two or three hundred of them at most.
It sounds like a lot, but there are so many people in the steel mill!
Therefore, those handymen who had relatives or friends working in the steel rolling mill quietly received the message that there were good things in Canteen No. 1 and they were asked to come early at noon.
When it was time to get off work at noon, before the bell rang, several workers rushed out of the workshop with their lunch boxes.
"Damn it, who was that bastard who just ran out? He ran out before the bell rang. Is he a starving ghost?"
"Is it Xiao Wang? I saw Xiao Wang from the back."
"He is the most enthusiastic eater in the whole workshop!"
This situation occurred in several workshops. Some workers rushed out of the workshop before the bell rang and ran to canteen No. 1.
Among them was Xu Damao from the Propaganda Department.
This guy works in the Propaganda Department and is much more informed than the average person. He received the news half an hour ago and rushed into the cafeteria as soon as the bell rang for the end of get off work.
As soon as he entered the cafeteria, Xu Damao smelled a different fragrance.
Ah!
The news turned out to be correct. Canteen No. 1 did prepare something rare at noon!
When he arrived at the food window, Xu Damao saw two small hill-shaped vegetable steamed buns.
Taking a deep breath, Xu Damao's whole body shook.
"Come, pack some steamed bread with vegetables for me. I won't be eating vegetables for lunch today. I'll only be eating steamed bread!"
Xu Damao was very generous and wanted to buy six with a wave of his hand.
"Xu Damao, are you born in the Year of the Rabbit? How can you run so fast?"
As luck would have it, the person serving food at the window was Sha Zhu, and Xu Damao suddenly appeared at the window, which scared him.
"What do you care about my zodiac sign? Hurry up and bring me six vegetable steamed buns!"
Although the relationship between the two has eased slightly compared to before, it is only slightly better. They still can't help but quarrel when they meet.
Sha Zhu snorted coldly, took two steamed buns and put them in the lunch box: "Two steamed buns, pay for them."
"No, Shazhu, are you deaf? I want six, I'll eat three, and take the remaining three back to my wife!" Xu Damao said unhappily.
"Director Chen stipulated that each person is limited to two vegetable steamed buns. Even if you paid for six, I can only give you two."
"What the hell? Two are not enough, give me two more!" When Xu Damao heard that it was Chen Jun's rule, his attitude became better, but he still wanted to pester Sha Zhu to get two more.
But no matter what Xu Damao said, Sha Zhu ignored him.
It was agreed that there would be two, and it was useless even if Xu Damao said it to the sky.
Got it!
Seeing that Sha Zhu was not moved by any persuasion, Xu Damao glanced at the workers who rushed into the canteen and threw the money down in a bad mood.
"Give me another portion of vermicelli and eggplant. Two steamed buns won't fill me up."
"Got it!"
Sha Zhu was in a good mood because he could make Xu Damao feel embarrassed, so he directly gave Xu Damao a full portion of vermicelli and eggplant.
Xu Damao was carrying his lunch box and looking for a seat. After walking a few steps, he couldn't help but pick up a vegetable steamed bun and started to eat it.
Wow~~
After taking a bite of the vegetable steamed bread, Xu Damao felt a current rushing from his mouth straight to the top of his head, making him shiver uncontrollably.
Good guy!
Why is this thing so delicious?
Not only is it not as dry as ordinary steamed bread, it tastes even more fragrant than meat buns.
Delicious, so delicious!
Xu Damao swallowed the vegetable steamed bread in his mouth in three or two bites, and Kuku took a few more bites.
In a short while, the two vegetable steamed buns were finished by Xu Damao.
He licked his fingers in a somewhat useless manner and looked down at the vermicelli and eggplant in the lunch box.
Hiss, the vegetable dumplings are gone, what should I do with these vegetables?
Can't we just eat vegetables?
After thinking for a while, Xu Damao glanced at the food window. There was already a queue at the window, and many workers were leaning their heads to look at the vegetable dumplings.
Ah!
Xu Damao's eyes lit up and he thought of a good idea.
