Chapter 88 Experiment with all-you-can-eat oyster omelets...
Chapter 88
The Lin family set up the iron rack in the kitchen and placed a clean rectangular frying pan on it.
The gas tank and stove are also fully installed.
Lin Mujin clapped her hands and said, "We can start now."
Cousin Lin took the lead and said, "I'll do it."
Lin Muli raised his hand, "I'll weigh it."
Lin Mujin looked left and right, "Then I'll record it."
Lin Muyu started to weigh the sweet potato starch. He definitely wouldn't make a lot for the first time, so he only made 120 grams.
Place them in three different bowls and add 20 grams of flour, tapioca starch and starch respectively.
Add a small amount of salt and white pepper, then add water to make a paste.
The next step is nothing special, just follow the usual oyster omelet recipe.
Soon all three oyster omelets were ready and the aroma filled the kitchen.
Cousin Lin used a spatula to cut the food into small portions and distributed them to everyone. "Sister, this spatula is really useful. It's much better than a kitchen knife."
Although Lin Mujin was hungry, she didn't have time to eat. She quickly wrote down the ingredients so that she could experiment and find out which porridge was most suitable.
"Lin Muli, don't forget to send a copy to uncle." Lin Mujin instructed.
You know, I didn’t make dinner at all because of this experiment tonight.
Everyone is hungry.
Lin Mulu went away happily.
Lin Mujin quickly took two bites. It was as delicious as ever. "Sister, give me a small piece of this."
She ate all three portions.
“Auntie, this one is crispier.” She was referring to the one with glutinous rice flour.
He soon received recognition from his cousin Lin, cousin Lin, and Lin Muli.
"The cassava starch is a bit weak this time." Lin Mujin muttered.
The preliminary formula of the paste was determined.
Next, make three more portions according to the ratio of starch to glutinous rice flour of 1:2, 1:3, and 1:4.
It was still Cousin Lin who did it herself.
This time, one copy was also sent to Li Xiuying and Luo Meijuan, mother and daughter.
Lin Mujin went there in person, so the meal was not in vain, and he had to leave a feeling after eating it.
This time many people couldn't tell the difference, but Cousin Lin insisted that one to three ratios is best.
Lin Mujin drew a five-pointed star next to the one-to-three ratio.
Next is the number of oysters and whether to add chives.
We did this six or seven times and everyone was full.
The final data is available.
"I'll go calculate the cost." Lin Mujin returned to the house with a pen and paper.
Lin Muli hurried to catch up, "Sister, I'm with you."
"100 grams of starch... 30 grams of glutinous rice flour... 2 eggs... 400 grams of oyster meat... chopped green onions... chives... soybean oil..."
"The approximate cost is five dollars, of which the oyster meat is two dollars. If I split this oyster omelet into two portions and sell each for eight dollars, that's sixteen dollars, which means the profit is about 68 percent. That's pretty good!"
Lin Mujin clenched her fist, and another high-profit product was born.
Cousin Lin and Cousin Lin also came back and were very happy to see the profit.
Cousin Lin suddenly thought of a question, "If I want to take out the oyster omelette, I can only use a plastic bag, which is a bit inconvenient."
Lin Mujin said, "It's best to eat it right after you buy it. Eggs will taste fishy if they get cold."
She thought of the cardboard box.
"Brother, can I buy some oil paper to wrap the dim sum?"
Cousin Lin nodded, "We have it for sale."
Lin Mujin started drawing again. "We can fold some wax paper into a paper bag, then use it to put the oyster omelette in, and then put it in a plastic bag. That way, we can eat it halfway and it won't be too hot. If it's a delicate girl, we can help cut it into small pieces and give her a toothpick so she can eat it without getting her hands dirty."
The main focus is on providing excellent service.
Cousin Lin hesitated, "Will this be too much trouble?"
Lin Mujin said, "Our pot is quite large and can make ten servings at a time. This needs to be eaten while hot, so it won't delay anything. As for the oil paper bags, you can make them at home or in your free time."
Lin Muli raised his hand and said, "Sister, I found two problems."
Lin Mujin raised an eyebrow and looked at him, "You tell me."
When did this kid become so perceptive? He even discovered two problems.
Lin Muli raised a finger and said, "I find that small oysters are better for making omelets. The big ones are too watery, and sometimes the batter can't wrap them properly and they become tasteless."
Lin Mujin's eyes sparkled. She didn't expect that he had actually discovered a key point.
Come to think of it, it’s true!
After exchanging a look with cousin Lin, they both felt that what Lin Muli said made sense.
Cousin Lin urged, "Then what is the second question?"
Cousin Lin and Lin Mujin also looked at him.
Lin Muli didn't dare keep the secret. "One oyster omelet contains one egg and 200 grams of oysters. If we sell 100 omelets a day, we need 100 eggs and 40 kilograms of oyster meat. Have you ever thought that we might run out of supply?"
Cousin Lin immediately said, "There's definitely going to be a shortage of eggs. On the contrary, we can negotiate a price with the boss. It's just that transporting them back home is a bit troublesome."
Lin Mujin suddenly had an idea, "Brother, why don't we go to the second-hand market and buy a tricycle? Otherwise, it will be troublesome to buy rice, flour and oil every time."
Cousin Lin also said, "Every time I go to the morning market to buy ingredients, I feel like I can't carry them all when there's too much. It's so annoying."
Cousin Lin made the decision, "Then I'll go buy a tricycle tomorrow morning."
Lin Mujin was even more wealthy. "Brother, if there's nothing suitable on the second-hand market, we can just buy a new one. After all, it has to carry heavy things, and it can't keep breaking down."
Otherwise it will delay things.
Lin Muli reminded, "Where can I get oysters?"
Lin Mujin had a plan in mind. "I'll go directly to the fishing village tomorrow and order directly from the fishermen. I'll ask for small oysters, two yuan a pound. I'll start with 30 pounds a day and increase it later. We can reimburse the round-trip bus fare. That way I can earn almost 2,000 yuan a month. I don't have to go into the sea, and it's completely safe. Even children can do it. I think many people in the fishing village would be willing to take this job."
Cousin Lin and Cousin Lin nodded repeatedly after listening to it, and both felt that it made a lot of sense.
Lin Mujin suddenly thought of something else, "Brother, buy a bigger scale and a big plastic basin with holes."
Alas, if you don’t think about it, you won’t know that there is still something missing.
Cousin Lin understood that the large plastic basin with holes was used to control the water in the oyster meat, and then it was weighed with a large scale so that it would be easier to settle the bill.
This oyster business must be a daily business.
Cousin Lin quickly agreed, "We need to buy a plastic basin with holes, or a net bag. We have to control the water, otherwise it will all be water and we'll lose money."
Lin Mujin clapped her hands. "That's right. We can ask them to clean the oyster meat thoroughly to remove any sand, then put it in a fine mesh bag and then put it in a bucket. That way, by the time we get there, the water will definitely be drained. Let's think about it again. Is there anything else that needs to be checked and fixed?"
Looking at cousin Lin, he was still frowning in thought.
Looking at Lin Muli, he was looking up at the ceiling.
Looking at Cousin Lin, she covered her head and sighed, "I just think about not being able to open the business tomorrow."
What a waste of time it takes to make money!
