Rebirth in the 80's: The Daily Life of the Villain's Mom-Chapter 83: Folding Boxes

But when it comes to making pastries, cooking, or preparing any food, mere theoretical knowledge is completely insufficient.

After understanding the theory, you have to get hands-on practice, practice more, in order to make progress and improve.

With Jiang Ran’s hands-on teaching, Pei Yang and Pei Shanshan truly wanted to learn. Coincidentally, they had some talent, and their first attempt at making peach pastries turned out quite well.

Watching the peach pastries being put into the oven, Jiang Ran felt thankful.

Fortunately, these two had helped with cooking at home before.

They might not know how to make elaborate dishes, but at least they’re not kitchen disasters.

Otherwise, this path might be impossible for them to pursue.

Jiang Ran isn’t worried about teaching apprentices who might outshine her.

There is never a shortage of people in this world.

People cannot avoid eating and drinking.

With Jiang Ran’s skills, no matter which city she moves to, as long as she has startup capital, she’s not afraid of failing.

Not to mention teaching these two; even if she teaches twenty or two hundred people, Jiang Ran wouldn’t be afraid.

If she really could teach so many apprentices, Jiang Ran might even consider opening a chain store.

Maybe in this lifetime, she could rely on her culinary skills to become wealthy and successful!

It was only when the aroma of peach pastries started to fill the room that Jiang Ran snapped back to reality from her imagination.

Those thoughts were too far-fetched; it’s fine to just think about them.

For now, the most important thing is how these peach pastries turned out.

The dough for the date cake has already been kneaded, just waiting to be steamed.

This afternoon, Jiang Ran only prepared these two types.

But tomorrow, Jiang Ran plans to make some egg cakes.

Egg cakes are something that, whether bought for home consumption or given as gifts, are quite excellent right now.

Egg cakes are delicious and look good, fairly easy to make, and are perfect for selling as small pastries at this stage.

The peach pastries are done baking and placed on a tray, neatly arranged, just waiting for customers to buy them.

Jiang Ran took a cool one, broke it apart, and handed it to a few people, "Try it first, see how it tastes."

Although Wang Cuilan and Pei Baoshan didn’t participate in the making, they watched the whole process.

Just seeing all the ingredients Jiang Ran added, they felt that the peach pastries would surely be delicious.

When Jiang Ran offered the peach pastries, the two hesitated to accept.

However, they couldn’t resist Jiang Ran, and in the end, they took them.

Freshly baked peach pastries were still a bit warm, but already very crispy.

With one bite, the peach pastries made a crunchy sound in the mouth.

Crispy, yet without leaving crumbs everywhere.

The taste was exceptionally fragrant.

"This is even better than what they sell in the department store!" Wang Cuilan praised.

Jiang Ran nodded with a smile, not being modest at this moment, "What’s sold in department stores is factory-made, produced on assembly lines. It won’t cut corners, but it won’t be exceptionally tasty either."

What Jiang Ran made was pure handmade, more refined, and of course, tasted better.

They ate two peach pastries together, and the date cake could now be steamed.

After setting the date cake to steam, Jiang Ran took out a stack of paper from the cabinet below, "While we have some time, we should make some boxes." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Seeing the paper Jiang Ran was holding, Wang Cuilan was a bit puzzled, "Boxes? What boxes?"

"Boxes to hold the date cake or peach pastries later. I specially ordered them, made quite a few."

Saying that, Jiang Ran flipped the paper over.
