Bi Yue was teaching Bi Cheng as a master, and she said to herself, "I'm telling you, big brother, this job will be yours from now on. You have to get the ratio right. If you add too much lard, the fried food will turn white instead of golden yellow (shai), which will make people lose their appetite."
"Ah." Bi Cheng's face flushed slightly. He was a little bit dissatisfied. It was not good to cut corners.
However, his hands did not stop moving. Following Bi Yue's instructions, he took the dough that had been fermented on the panel one by one, divided it into duck egg-sized pieces and then kneaded it into balls.
