Hand cakes, also known as green onion cakes, are said to have originated in Taiwan. However, in Li Anran’s view, this statement is not accurate. After all, with the prosperity of the domestic catering industry, there are no similar cakes. However, there are no hand cakes like hand cakes.
It's just that pancake grabbing has become so popular.
The freshly baked hand cakes are stacked in thousands of layers, with layers like tissue paper. When you grab it with your hands, the noodles are thousands of threads. The outer layer is golden and crispy, and the inner layer is soft and white. The aroma of scallion oil and gluten comes to your nostrils.
, so that everyone can grab and eat without having time to wait.
In addition to eating the cake alone, it can also be paired with eggs, bacon, vegetables, sauces and other auxiliary ingredients. It is crispy and delicious and suitable for all ages. Before Li Anran went into seclusion for ten years, it continued to be popular in the north and south of the country and was received by many
Diners love it.
The reason why he chose this kind of cake instead of Huangqiao Shaobing, which is more similar to flax cake, was that Li Anran considered that although the pastry cake like Huangqiao Shaobing tastes really good, it would be relatively troublesome to make.
And even if it is similar to sesame cake, it still cannot escape the category of picking people's teeth.
The hand cake is different. Although the process of making the cake is not simple, it is better than the hand cake franchisees who can learn from Master Time and Space. They first make the cake and then freeze it until the customer buys it.
Just process it on site.
In this way, the cake making and sales can be completely divided into two parts. The former part can be done at home, which will not occupy the location of the food stall, and at the same time, enough manpower can be arranged for large-scale batch production.
In addition, hand cakes have another advantage over Huangqiao Shaobing, that is, they are quite convenient to process.
You don't need to prepare a large oven like the latter. You only need a frying pan and a little oil.
If you want to make the cake more delicious, at most you only need to add a small oven to bake off the excess oil on the cake, and make the crispy texture richer and remove the residue.
After Li Anran's deduction, it was much easier to integrate the equipment for selling hand cakes into the snack cart than to put a big stove like Huangqiao Shaobing in the cart.
After making such a decision, Li Anran naturally did not stay idle anymore. He immediately arrested Zhang Erbao and set up a chopping board in the yard. After Zhang Erbao got the ingredients such as flour, refined salt, lard, chopped green onion and eggs, he started
Got busy.
"Er Bao, look carefully. If you can learn this kind of hand cake, then I will leave it to you to take care of it from now on. Do you understand?" Li Anran poured an appropriate amount of flour on the chopping board and said seriously.
.
"Understood! Master, Erbao will definitely watch it carefully!!" Zhang Erbao, who was a little confused by the sudden good news, quickly replied with joy after coming back to his senses.
It’s no wonder that Zhang Erbao’s reaction is so exaggerated. Not to mention in ancient times, even in the modern era of dominant time and space, this kind of skills can make a lot of money, and it is not an exaggeration to even say that it can be passed down to family members. If you don’t pay enough to learn the skills,
That's pure nonsense.
Don’t look at the recipes and making methods of hand cakes. They can be found everywhere on the Internet in the main space and time. But these alone are useless. Unless you are an expert in pastries, you will not be able to make them even if you follow the same pattern.
Draw "ladle".
What's more, for Zhang Erbao, it doesn't matter whether he can pass it down to his family after learning the skill of making pancakes with his hands. What's important is that he can be appreciated by his boss.
Although he had only been with the Li family for a few days, Zhang Erbao felt that his boss was a very good person and it was fully worthy of him to continue doing this job loyally.
Under such circumstances, how could one not be overjoyed to be appreciated by his employer?
Of course, if it weren't for the talisman that Li Anran entered before, although Zhang Erbao would still be grateful, it's unclear whether he would be able to think like he does now.
Making hand cakes is actually not difficult. Besides kneading the dough, the most important thing is to make the cake dough rich enough.
These two points are really not a problem for Li Anran, who has the attribute of being a foodie and does not hesitate to use his spiritual thoughts to make high-speed deductions.
Even, through the wonderful use of spiritual deduction, the production process and formula of this hand cake have been improved. The improved hand cake is far better than the traditional version in terms of taste and texture.
Taking into account that product diversification does not only mean operating multiple varieties, but also includes multiple flavors, Li Anran also made a sweet hand cake in addition to the most basic scallion oil hand cakes.
Grab the cake.
However, this so-called sweet hand cake does not put the sugar directly back into the cake base like the scallion oil flavored ones.
Considering that the sugar melted by heat will affect the crispy texture of the hand cakes, the sweet hand cakes made by Li Anran are actually the original hand cakes without scallion oil, but are brushed with a layer of sweetness when they are taken out of the pan.
Just sauce.
Since the taste of Western-style sauces in Main Time and Space is relatively unique, it is not necessarily popular with the people of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, in addition to making a little mayonnaise, Li Anran will also go to Jiangyuanzi to buy soy sauce, vinegar and other condiments.
I also used the sweet sauce I bought on the way.
With the wonderful use of spiritual thoughts, it was naturally impossible for Li Anran to really ask Zhang Erbao to learn how to make hand cakes from him bit by bit. Therefore, after the first batch of hand cakes were made, he really studied hard.
Zhang Erbao found that he had learned it.
Under the influence of Li Anran, Zhang Erbao would not be surprised by this abnormal state that he could learn instantly.
After seeing that the other party was able to make two types of hand cakes very quickly, even as proficient as a master who had been making hand cakes for many years, Li Anran knew that he had nothing to do here for the time being, and then
Returned to the main room.
At this time, the copper coins originally piled on the table were already clean and disappeared, as if they had never appeared.
Seeing that there was no one in the main room, he knew that his grandmother was probably collecting money in the bedroom at the moment, so he turned around and walked towards the backyard.
As expected, as soon as Li Anran walked to the backyard, he saw Qin'er and Ke'er standing outside his grandmother's bedroom like door gods.
"Master."
"Master." Qin'er and Ke'er saluted quickly when they saw someone approaching.
"Is grandma in there?" Li Anran raised his hand to let the two of them stand up and asked with a smile.
Before Qin'er and Ke'er could speak, the originally closed bedroom door suddenly opened from the inside, and then Li Sushi walked out of it with a happy face.
"Xiao'er, why are you looking for grandma?" Li Su, who fell in love with her precious grandson the more she looked at her, stepped forward and grabbed the latter's fleshy hands, patting them gently while asking with a smile.
"Grandma, my grandson wants to go back to the village." Li Anran, who enjoyed the pampering, replied with a smile.
"Go back to the village? Didn't you just go there before? Why, do you have something to do or are you thinking about the lotus?" Li Su, who knew that her precious children and grandchildren were not that kind of people, couldn't help teasing her.
"Grandma, haven't we set up a food stall at home? My grandson just started eating again. If it can be as prosperous as this morning, the raw materials for making rice noodles, braised pork and hand cakes will be consumed every day.
Quite a few.”
"Although there are ready-made shops in this county where you can purchase goods, the price is much higher than charging it directly from the countryside. Secondly, although our surname is Li, we have lived in Shuangquan Village for so long.
In the new year, we can't let all the fertilizer go to outsiders' fields." Li Anran, who didn't answer his grandmother's words, quickly explained.
"Xiao'er, do you mean that all the ingredients that will be used at home in the future will be purchased from the village?" Seeing that it was time to get down to business, Li Sushi quickly put aside her previous joking mood and asked seriously.
Li Anran, who is determined to build the entire Shuangquan Village into an ingredient supply base for his own restaurant, and plans to make this business bigger and bigger, explained with a smile: "Grandma, if our family purchases ingredients directly from the market, not to mention that the price will be higher.
It's higher than others, and it's also easy to be controlled by others. If people see that our business is getting more and more prosperous, and they get jealous and want to interfere with it, it will be troublesome."
"If we can bring the whole village on board with our family, we can avoid this problem, and at the same time, we can have a stable livelihood for the villagers. Then our family will gain face and solve the problem.
