Zheng Da said if he's going to help, he really means it.
In the kitchen, there's basically every kind of ingredient needed for snack making, and things like red bean paste, green bean paste, and coconut filling that can be stored ahead are in the freezer.
Zheng Da took a broad tour around the kitchen, getting familiar with the ingredients and utensils, and then rolled up his sleeves to get started.
The first thing he made was flaky pastry.
In Zheng Da's words, his son Zheng Siyuan's signature pastry is flaky pastry. Sometimes when his son has something on, he has to step in, he would go and muddle through making a bit.
Of course, if Zheng Da is asking Zheng Siyuan for something, like encouraging him to skip work for a blind date or something, he would make it seriously. How seriously depends on how likely the blind date is to succeed.
Today, Zheng Da wasn't too serious.
