Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife novel Chapter 1224

Chapter 1224: Chapter 1225: Personally Baking Mooncakes

Matters of national importance are naturally handled by the men, while Cheng Su led a simple life for herself. She was either working overtime to draft the future vision plan for the Jam Company that Cheng Yaozu requested or was stationed at Joy Soon Loy Restaurant, observing the pastry department making mooncakes.

Seeing that the ingredients had arrived and noticing Chen Guorong and the others deeply engaged in their research, Cheng Su, who was a typical foodie, eagerly joined the mooncake-making team.

In Qing City, not many bosses of big restaurants would immerse themselves in culinary research like Cheng Su. Hence, her involvement left the pastry department feeling a bit flustered and anxious.

"It’s alright, just consider me one of you. Let’s make these pastries together," Cheng Su said with a smile.

Chen Guorong flattered her: "President Cheng is a gourmet; with your guidance, we’ll surely achieve results with half the effort!"

"Indeed, indeed!" everyone chimed in.

Cheng Su chuckled and said, "I don’t dare to call myself a gourmet. I’ve tasted quite a few pastries in Guangcheng, so I can probably offer a suggestion or two. You all are the real experts, it’s your ideas and skilled hands we rely on!"

Everyone responded with another round of modesty.

Time was tight, so they stopped deferring to each other and the entire pastry department got busy, working together to knead the dough, fill the pastries, roll, and bake.

To make the mooncakes delicious, they had to be aromatic, soft, sweet but not greasy, so the craftsmanship was meticulous, and kneading the dough required precision.

The dough was soft enough, but when the mooncakes came out of the oven and were tasted, Cheng Su felt they were just missing a hint of fragrance.

Watching Cheng Su frown, Chen Guorong realized they had gotten it wrong again, though they all actually thought the taste was quite good.

Cheng Su paced back and forth, constantly thinking about Luh Wei.
