Food: Taking the twins to kindergarten to be chefs

Chapter 100 Food Allergy Issues
Just when the teachers in each class couldn't eat Huang Jun's food because of the upcoming holidays, they felt a little disappointed. They suddenly felt that weekends did not seem so delicious and not so exciting...

Huang Jun himself has no such worries at all. Instead, he is immersed in the joy of "as a chef, I can also enjoy weekend rest time."

This also made him more determined to believe that...

It was a very wise decision for me to choose to work as a chef in a kindergarten.

After all, weekends mean he can spend more time with his two precious daughters and enjoy precious parent-child time.

To him, that was more important than anything else.

but…

Aunt Li's next surprising words made his happy mood slightly dampen: "Oh, tomorrow is Saturday, and the garden is also on holiday, so after school this afternoon... Principal Liang is very likely to Let’s have a meeting!”

Yeah?

Meeting?
Shall we have a meeting?
Huang Jun had a look of surprise on his face, he couldn't believe what he just heard, but Aunt Li's firm eyes made him understand that he had heard correctly.

only…

He never thought that as a kindergarten chef, he would also need to participate in kindergarten meetings?

He asked in confusion: "Aunt Li, do you mean that we, the kitchen staff, will also attend the meeting in the garden?"

Aunt Li, an old employee, helped Huang Jun to popularize his knowledge blind spots: "If it is only the teachers who hold the meeting, we kitchen staff do not need to participate. But if the kindergarten notifies all employees of the meeting, we kitchen staff must also Want to participate.”

"But school has just started, what kind of meeting are we going to have?" Huang Jun was puzzled.

Aunt Li replied: "Summary of the work in the first week of this semester..."

"Is there such a meeting every semester?" Huang Jun continued to ask.

Aunt Li thought for a moment: "I remember there was a meeting last semester, but as for the last semester, it seems there wasn't one."

Aunt Lin added: "Actually, this meeting is not held every semester. It mainly depends on the arrangement of Principal Liang."

Hearing this, Huang Jun breathed a sigh of relief and secretly prayed to stay away.

It’s not that he’s afraid of meetings!
Mainly because he was worried that if everyone went to the meeting, his two precious daughters would have no one to take care of them...

"Hey, I hope we don't have to have a meeting this time..." Aunt Li sighed helplessly.

The same goes for Aunt Lin!
After all, who really enjoys meetings?

Take a break.

Huang Jun saw that it was getting late.

He began to prepare for lunch.

Today’s lunch is apple and red date soup and milky corn cakes.

For the health of the children, he tries to simplify the ingredients and seasonings to ensure that the food is natural and simple.

The main ingredients and auxiliary ingredients of apple and red date soup are only apple, red date, wolfberry and honey.

Milky corn tortillas include corn, flour, eggs, pure milk, white sugar, and no other messy ingredients.

It's also very simple to make.

Peel and core the apples that have been washed with salt, and cut them into small dices. Then soak the red dates in warm water until soft, cut and core them, put them into the pot together, and add an appropriate amount of water.

Then start to simmer the soup, set the heat to moderate, and let the soup simmer slowly.

While waiting for the soup to simmer…

He took another egg and gently knocked it on the edge of the clean stainless steel basin to break it and separate the egg and egg white.

Then put the separated egg yolks into another large stainless steel basin.

Repeat this step until all eggs are separated.

After that, he added pure milk to the stainless steel basin filled with egg yolks, and then sifted cornmeal into it.

Sifted cornmeal will be more delicate.

He got a whisk and mixed them thoroughly.

After mixing, he added an appropriate amount of white sugar to the stainless steel basin containing the egg whites and beat them at high speed with an electric egg beater.

Beat the egg whites until they form an inverted triangle when you lift the whisk.

After the egg whites are beaten, he spoons half of the egg whites into the egg yolk batter.

Use a spatula to toss them up and down like a stir-fry.

In this step, do not stir in circles to avoid defoaming and affecting the fluffiness of the finished product.

After mixing evenly, he added the remaining egg whites.

Use the same technique to mix them again.

Huang Jun's series of operations completely subverted Aunt Li and Aunt Lin's traditional understanding of milk-flavored corn cakes.

Aunt Li exclaimed: "Ah... Chef Huang, your way of making milk-flavored corn cakes is completely different from Chef Wei's."

Aunt Lin also cast a curious look at Huang Jun. After hearing Aunt Li's question, she nodded in agreement: "Yes, Chef Wei's milk corn cake is indeed very simple to make."

"He just mixed eggs, pure milk, cornmeal, and flour together, added yeast powder and sugar, stirred evenly, covered it with plastic wrap and fermented it for an hour. Then he stirred it with chopsticks to eliminate the air bubbles inside, and then put it in a pan to bake. It’s fine if it’s cooked.”

Hearing Aunt Lin's description, Huang Jun explained with a smile: "Actually, every chef has a different concept of cooking and has his own unique way of doing it. Chef Wei's milk-flavored tortillas are simple and straightforward, while mine The method may be more detailed. I chose to separate the egg whites and egg yolks and process them separately to make the cake more delicate. At the same time, whipping the egg whites can make the cake fluffier and avoid the need to use baking powder. After all, you eat too much baking powder. It is still harmful to children’s health.”

That's it!
Aunt Li and Aunt Lin nodded frequently after hearing this, and silently praised Huang Jun's actions in their hearts.

Aunt Li couldn't help but praise: "Chef Huang, your hard work is really admirable~"

Huang Jun smiled modestly: "Thank you Aunt Li, I just want the children to have more delicious and healthier meals.

In order to take care of children with milk allergies, he also made some corn paste without adding pure milk, and planned to bake it in a special small pan later.

After all, the issue of children's food allergies is a crucial matter for kindergartens. In the kindergarten admission registration form, parents need to fill in in detail whether their children have allergies.

This registration form will be compiled by the kindergarten health director and sent to the kitchen. Huang Jun will also mark information about allergens in the work manual so that the chef can pay special attention when making meals.

At the same time, Huang Jun will also mark key points in the kitchen work manual to remind himself to pay special attention to allergens when making meals to ensure that every child can enjoy food safely.

After the batter is ready, he starts making it.

After the pan was preheated, Huang Jun did not brush it with oil.

Just take a spoonful of batter and pour it gently into the pan.

Suddenly.

A rich milky fragrance hits the nose, making people twitch their nostrils and take a deep breath of this charming aroma.

As the batter slowly solidifies, the shape of the milky tortilla gradually emerges, and the golden surface exudes an attractive sheen.

Huang Jun gently flipped the milky corn tortilla over with a spatula and continued to fry for a while until both sides were golden and caramel.

The entire kitchen was filled with the rich aroma of milk and sweet corn. Aunt Li and Aunt Lin were also attracted by the aroma and couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

"Chef Huang, this milk-flavored corn cake is so delicious!"

Aunt Li praised, "I have never smelled such a rich milky tortilla! It feels even more fragrant than the ones made by Chef Wei!"

Aunt Lin also nodded in agreement.

Huang Jun responded with a smile: "Thank you Aunt Li, do you guys want to have a taste first?"

"Okay!"

Aunt Li and Aunt Lin didn't even think about it.

In the past, they were not very interested in the children's snacks, but for some reason, since Huang Jun came, they were very happy whether it was food or snacks.

No matter how much you eat, you can’t get enough!
If others knew that they were so enthusiastic about children's snacks at such a young age, they would probably be surprised and laughed at.

……

It's approaching noon.

The childcare teachers from each class came to the kitchen to receive lunch as usual.

Seeing that the afternoon snack was milk-flavored corn pancakes, teacher Liu Fangling asked slightly worriedly: "Cook Huang, there is a child in our class who is allergic to milk. You should know that, right?"

"Yes, I know!" Huang Jun nodded affirmatively: "I specially prepared some milk-free tortillas for these children with special needs."

Seeing that Huang Jun was so attentive and thoughtful, Liu Fangling said gratefully: "That's good, thank you! I'm sorry to bother you, Chef Huang!"

"You're welcome, this is what I should do." Huang Jun responded modestly.

After the childcare teachers of each class returned to the classroom with lunch snacks, the children who had just woken up were immediately attracted by the aroma.

Small (4) class.

The children sniffed the aroma and eagerly gathered around the dining table with their short legs, staring closely at the lunch snacks, as if their eyes were glued to them.

Little kid Yuanyuan licked the corner of her mouth and asked curiously: "Teacher, what is this? It smells so good!"

Teacher Wang Wenxia looked at these greedy little cats and couldn't help laughing: "These are milky corn cakes and apple and red date soup. Do you want to eat them?"

"I want to eat! I want to eat!" Yuanyuan and the other children nodded without hesitation.

"Then just line up with Teacher Xie and wash your hands. After washing your hands, you can start eating." Teacher Wang Wenxia ordered.

Upon hearing this, the children immediately took action, quickly ran to Xie Jianing's side and lined up.

After washing their hands and serving lunch, they all had happy smiles on their faces after holding the milk-flavored tortillas.

Everyone was so reluctant to eat it, they couldn't help but touch and squeeze it first to feel the unique feel, and then carefully put it into their mouths.

He took a big bite with an "Ouch" sound.

It is soft and sweet, with a strong milky aroma and a light corn aroma filling your mouth.

"Wow...this cake is fragrant and soft, so delicious..."

"Yeah, it's really good. I like it so much..."

Yuanyuan's eyes narrowed as she ate, and she was even more envious of Qingqing and Weiwei. She couldn't help but ask after every meal: "Qingqing, Weiwei, can I exchange cakes with you?"

"Not good, not good……"

Qingqing and Weiwei shook their heads firmly, their little heads almost shaking with afterimages.

No one says to change it!
Seeing this, Yuanyuan took a bite of the milk-flavored tortilla, and then drank a sip of the sweet and delicious apple and red date soup to comfort her depressed mood.

But she won't give up!

When Yang Yuxi's teachers saw this scene, they all showed expressions of "I'm used to it, it's normal" and smiled.

Seeing that the children were all immersed in the delicious lunch, and all of them were shaking their heads while eating, they couldn't help but start with the golden-colored milk-flavored corn cakes.

Take a bite...

As if biting on a light cloud, the full aroma of milk and sweetness of corn echo in the mouth.

The crust is light and fluffy, and each layer is filled with air, as if it's beating on the tip of the tongue.

The rich milk aroma and the sweet aroma of corn are perfectly combined. It not only retains the natural taste of corn, but also incorporates the mellow taste of milk.

"Hmm, this milky corn cake is really delicious. It's even better than those cakes bought outside. It doesn't taste too sweet, but it tastes extra delicious!" Xie Jianing completely fell in love with this taste. .

The especially rich milky flavor made her get more and more addicted to it. The more she ate, the more she liked it.

Just when they were immersed in the deliciousness of the milky corn tortillas and couldn't help themselves, a cry of "Wow" suddenly rang out in the classroom that had just been quiet for a while...
