chapter-2222
The best way to appease the customers was to let them eat what they wanted to and let them have a dining experience that was worth lining up for.
Mag knew that very well and had always tried his best to make this a reality.
The appearance of Sichuan spicy wontons in red oil indeed gave a new option for the breakfast's flavors.
Mag's preference for breakfast had to do with his mood. Sometimes, he preferred something light while at other times, he preferred something heavy.
It was naturally best to have a choice.Miya, who came early today, said to Mag with adoration as soon as she came in, "There are two new dishes today again. Boss, you are awesome!"
As a completely untalented woman in cooking, Yabemiya admired Mag for his ability to create delicious new dishes constantly.
His brain seemed to hold many delicacies and he could always create amazingly good food easily.
"I have to give something new for the expectant customers, right?" Mag said as he made the wontons.
After looking at Mag for a while from the side, Yabemiya asked enthusiastically, "This doesn't look too difficult. Do you need my help?"
Mag flicked a glance at her and nodded. "You can try if you want to."
"Sure." Yabemiya washed her hands and wiped them dry, she pinched a little bit of dough like Mag and rolled it with a roller pin.A big piece of thin dough laid on the chopping block quietly.
Yabemiya scraped for a while before she managed to scrape the broken piece of dough skin off from the chopping block with an embarrassed expression.
She didn't expect the simple pressing task to stump her.
"Just use the wonton skin that I rolled out," Mag smilingly said and used his gaze to direct her to the thin wonton skins that he had stacked up at the side.
The wonton skin of appropriate thickness was tough, and yet she was able to see through when holding it against the light.
Yabemiya scooped a spoonful of meat filling and put it in the skin's center like Mag. After pondering for a moment, she folded it into half and pressed the sides in.
Looking at the wonton in her hand, Yabemiya nodded with satisfaction. It didn't seem as difficult as she had imagined.
Mag looked at the wonton in her hands and calmly said, "Your wonton will open up even before we put it in the water."
"Really?" Yabemiya was stunned. She looked at her wonton and then at Mag's wonton. She didn't think that they looked very different.
"Do it this way. Pinch this side together first and fold it in as you go along the side, pressing the fold in one after one. It looks nicer and the filling won't get out during boiling, which would affect the taste and appearance." Mag demonstrated as he taught.
"I got it."
Yabemiya nodded, seemingly to have understood. She followed Mag's example and ended up squeezing half of the meat fillings out…
"That's ruined." Mag smiled, but he encouraged her. "You'll get it after a few more tries."
Soon after, Firis came too and joined in on the operation of wrapping the wontons.
Firis was much more talented than Yabemiya. She got the hang of it after learning it for a short while. This made Yabemiya sigh hard.
Mag finished wrapping his wontons and then helped to quickly repair the ones Yabemiya and Firis made. Their breakfast that morning would be those less than perfect wontons.
Firis and Yabemiya, who made the wontons, specifically asked to have Sichuan spicy wontons in red oil for breakfast, while Shirley and the rest chose to have lighter breakfast. The shaved noodles and soup dumplings had become their new favorite breakfast.
Mag cooked four bowls of Sichuan spicy wontons in red oil. Amy asked for a bowl when she woke up and saw the freshly wrapped wontons, and Mag himself wanted something spicy to wake himself up in the morning.
The wontons were floating in the red soup base with sesame seeds and tender green spring onions scattered all over them. The hot steam rose up along with the chicken soup's aroma and the spiciness of the red oil, making one feel refreshed.
"Gulp. It smells so nice." Anna gulped. She felt that her shaved noodles were no longer enticing.
All of them couldn't help taking a few more looks at it. Although it was a tad too heavy to eat spicy and greasy food in the morning, they still couldn't help wanting to try it out after smelling it.
"I made this. Indeed, it has signs of opening up." Yabemiya looked at the bowl of Sichuan spicy wontons in red oil in front of her and picked out a crooked wonton. Its side was slightly open, but fortunately the filling was intact.
After blowing at it, she took a bite.
The soft and tender wonton skin was thin and smooth. The meat filling was juicy and the spiciness and sweetness of the meat merged together, making her taste buds go crazy. She simply had to chew it softly and it could be swallowed easily.
The spiciness only just blossomed in the oral cavity now. It slid down the throat and all the way into the stomach.
This sensation was simply too marvelous!
After swallowing one wonton, Yabemiya marveled. "It's so scrumptious!"
Firis nodded and said with tears in her eyes, "Mmm. It's simply fantastic! Although it is a little spicy… sss… it's really smooth and tender!"
As an elf, who almost didn't eat spicy food and only ate hot pot with clear broth, this spiciness was a little bit too much for her.
However, this didn't affect her love for the wontons at all!
Different from the soup dumplings, which one had to drink the soup first before eating the dumpling, the red soup base made the wontons taste wilder.
Apart from the spicy red oil, the red soup base was chicken soup and this tasty chicken soup elevated the taste.
"You have to drink the soup like this." Amy used a spoon to gently brush the red oil on the surface aside before drinking a spoonful of the soup.
All of them only felt a tightness in their throats as they secretly guessed what kind of spiciness that would feel like.
However, Amy looked like she was enjoying herself tremendously. She only started to eat the wontons after drinking a few mouthfuls of soup.
Soon, tiny beads of sweat appeared on her little nose and she looked like she enjoyed her meal very much.
Mag had also started eating. The taste was not bad, but the wontons didn't look too good. After all, they were made by Firis and Yabemiya, so they weren't perfectly done.
However, they were eating them, so it didn't matter too much. It wasn't good to waste food and ingredients.
The customers would eat the ones that he wrapped, so the taste would definitely pass.
As for the Sichuan spicy chicken, it would be released at noon.
It would be a great dish to eat with rice or have with an alcoholic beverage. Mag hadn't let them try it before, so he was also looking forward to their reactions.
It wasn't time for the breakfast service yet, and the two elven maidens had just arrived with the 'Little Mermaid' picture books that they were going to sell today.
As the side business of Mamy Restaurant, selling picture books was indeed a good business.
They were easily earning 1,000,000 a day, which was hard to do elsewhere.
