Chapter 201 Complex Cashier System
Secondly, the proportion of the filling is not right. There seems to be too much water chestnut, which is a bit too sweet and the fragrance of the meat filling is also covered up, which is a bit of a loss of one thing for another.
But at least she had already passed the seasoning course and had a lot of practice in seasoning and proportions when cooking, so Zhao Xiaojing was not as helpless as she was with rolling out noodles.
Zhao Xiaojing began to make the pig skin jelly again. This time, in order to save time, she used the quick module + pressure cooker at the same time. After cutting the pig skin, Zhao Xiaojing added a whole chicken, half a rib, a pig's trotter, and a dried fish left over from making the pig's trotter rice broth. Finally, she scooped a spoonful of the pig's trotter rice braising liquid.
After putting everything into the pressure cooker for half an hour, Zhao Xiaojing filtered the ingredients, leaving only the soup, and put the soup into the refrigerator to freeze again.
This is equivalent to adding jelly to the soup stock. In theory, the soup will be more delicious.
Zhao Xiaojing waited for another three hours. After the broth was frozen, she quickly broke it up again and started a new round of stuffing mixing.
This time, the jelly and meat filling were still mixed in half, but the ratio of water chestnuts to the mixed meat filling was changed to 3:7. Zhao Xiaojing mixed a small bowl of filling, wrapped it with the remaining dough, and put it in the steamer again.
Ten minutes later, the soup dumplings were out of the pot. Zhao Xiaojing blew on them gently, then carefully bit through the skin of the soup dumplings and slowly took a sip.
With this bite, I immediately felt that the taste of the soup had been elevated. Not only was the flavor much richer, but the aroma was also richer. As the soup flowed out, the tempting aroma of meat also hit me in the face. It was much better than the previous soup.
It seems that the direction is right, and the idea of adding some broth to the broth is right, but Zhao Xiaojing, who is already proficient in seasoning, still tasted something wrong.
The taste of the soup is too strong. Although such a strong taste will quickly make people feel delicious at the first bite, the second and third bites will quickly tire the taste buds. It is like stuffing all the good things into the mouth at once, making it difficult to distinguish the main from the secondary. Without the sense of progressive taste, people will quickly feel bored.
The taste is strong, but the umami flavor is not fully brought out. It tastes delicious, but it also feels like something is missing.
Furthermore, the meat filling was not fresh enough. Without the addition of water chestnuts, the sweet taste was much less, but the texture did not seem crisp enough, making the overall taste a bit unrefreshing.
Zhao Xiaojing thought about it and adjusted the steaming time this time.
Seven minutes later, the soup dumplings were out of the pot again.
This time the water chestnuts were crispy, but the taste became astringent...
Zhao Xiaojing continued to wrap it again, this time steaming it for eight minutes.
The water chestnut tasted better, but the meat filling tasted a bit worse...
Zhao Xiaojing thought about it and adjusted the heat, turning it up to the maximum and still steaming it for eight minutes...
Another two hours passed in the virtual space...
Zhao Xiaojing tasted the soup dumpling filling she had steamed for eight and a half minutes over medium-high heat, and was finally satisfied.
This time, the water chestnut meat filling is crispy and refreshing, firm and chewy. The sweetness of the water chestnut and the freshness of the meat complement each other, finally forming a meaty aroma with a sweet taste.
Zhao Xiaojing was in a good mood as she had solved two of the three problems. Now all she needed was the jelly and to adjust the taste of the broth, her water chestnut soup dumplings would be ready!
Just as Zhao Xiaojing was sharpening her knife and preparing to kill Gao Tang, her cell phone rang.
Zhao Xiaojing hurriedly exited the virtual space and answered the phone. It was Su Yuchen calling.
"Mirror, I found the set of things at the cash register. I found that there are quite a lot of varieties. I like two of them. Let me discuss them with you."
The two originally wanted a cash register that scanned codes to print receipts and used a computer to record transactions. They thought they could just buy the equipment and have someone else install it in the store.
At that time, Ouyang Yidan can scan the code at the front desk and print out the receipt directly without having to write it by hand, which will not only keep a record in the account but also save time.
As a result, after Su Yuchen arrived at the store, he found that there were so many types of cash registers. There were not only barcode scanners and cash register computers, but also pure cash registers and networked cash registers with cash register systems, printers, back-kitchen machines, barcode scanning mini-programs, label machines, cash boxes, etc.
Not to mention that cash register systems are divided into brands and manufacturers. Although the cash register systems of each brand are similar, they have different focuses and characteristics.
Su Yuchen spent nearly an hour to figure out the functions of these things and the differences and specific uses of each software. Then he selected two that were relatively suitable for the restaurant's positioning and more practical.
A basic point is what they thought of at the beginning: a pure cash register and receipt machine, with a simple back kitchen machine.
One of them was a connected cash register that changed her mind. It came with a whole host of supporting systems, including connectivity, direct QR code ordering with Zhifubao, a companion ordering app, automatic order processing and printing via food delivery platforms, inventory management, product entry, employee management, and cloud syncing. It also included a receipt machine, QR code scanner, and a kitchen machine.
There is a big price difference between the two options. The first one is the basic model, which saves money and is easy to install, but it may be troublesome to use later.
The second type costs nearly three thousand yuan and requires professional installation and debugging. After that, they still have to learn how to use it and still have to explore it. But once they learn it, it saves manpower and time in the later stage.
“We don’t need to mention the ordering machines, ordering robots, and cash boxes, but I’m quite interested in the inventory management system, the Zhifubao QR code scanning and ordering system, and the food delivery system. They should reduce our workload.
Which one do you prefer? What do you think?" Su Yuchen asked.
"Wait for me to think about it..." Zhao Xiaojing quickly figured out the functions Su Yuchen mentioned. It did sound very convenient, but she had Xiaozhi. Although it couldn't be seen in the light, it was actually more convenient. It could take inventory of stock with just one click, and she didn't even have to manually put things into the warehouse. Zhao Xiaojing was a little confused for a moment.
"Okay, think about it first. There are several stores here. I've only visited two of them. Their functions and modes are similar. I'll go to the next store to compare prices.
If you have made up your mind, we will decide on it today. If you haven’t made up your mind, that’s okay. I will go back to the store directly when the time comes.
Anyway, I have the boss’s contact information, so if you’re sure you want something, just call and have them deliver it to the store.”
Su Yuchen hung up the phone readily.
Zhao Xiaojing habitually saved time and entered the virtual space to summon Xiaozhi.
If Xiaozhi wasn't around, she would have decisively chosen the second option. Although it was more expensive, it saved her the time of counting and calculating, and the backend inventory would make things clearer at a glance.
Moreover, being able to place orders by scanning the QR code online is indeed very practical. Ouyang Yidan does not have to run around waiting for customers to place orders, and customers do not have to crowd at the checkout counter to place orders.
But now with Xiaozhi, these functions seem useless, but Xiaozhi can't use them openly.
