Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    ?

    I have been here for more than a week, and I finally got acquainted with the surrounding environment. Our community belongs to the houses in the early 1990s, which are relatively old.

    According to my deskmate Zheng Xiaolong, most of the old residential areas in Chengdu have their own representative delicacies, but without the guidance of old Chengdu, ordinary people really can¡¯t find them.

    There is an old noodle restaurant downstairs in our community.

    I found it by accident when I was wandering around.

    The walls are so old that they are starting to fall off, the tables and chairs are greasy, and the "stove" for cooking noodles!

    It's the kind of earthen stove in the countryside, absolutely right!  When I saw it for the first time, I was also frightened for a long time.  How did this thing appear here?

    Along the long corridor, there are three or four small tables, which are all the belongings of the small noodle shop.

    The noodle shop is run by an old couple, in their 60s, with gray hair.

    But it can't hide the spirit of the second elder.

    It's not time for dinner yet, so I randomly found a free table and sat down.

    "Young man, do you want to eat noodles?" the proprietress greeted.

    ? Although he is in his sixties, he is fat and full of energy.

    "Yes, boss, what kind of noodle do you have?" I asked curiously. I wanted to ask what the signature noodle is, but I decided to order it casually first.

    "We just have a kind of noodles, sour radish Shaozi. It depends on whether you eat a large portion or a small portion."

    "Sour radish Shaozi?" I wondered.

    From my words, the boss should have guessed that I am a new customer, so he took the initiative to introduce me: "Look, this is sour radish Shaozi. It tastes crunchy and sweet, and the taste is very good!"

    The proprietress pointed to a large pot of Shaozi beside the stove and said.

    "Oh, I just moved to the neighborhood behind, and I haven't eaten at your house, but seeing that your business is doing well, so I came here to try it today." I replied truthfully.

    "That's fine, I guarantee that you'll want another after eating one." The proprietress said happily.

    I ordered a large portion directly and waited for the noodles to be served

    Following a gurgling sound, the water in the pot began to boil. The proprietress had quick eyesight and quick hands, and she grabbed the noodles next to her and was about to throw them into the pot.

    ?With years of experience, you can accurately control the amount of a bowl of noodles with just a grasp and a lift.

    As soon as the noodles were put into the pot, the tumbling water became quiet like a sleeping cat.

    When cooking noodles, pay attention to three ups and downs, so that the cooked noodles will have the best taste.

    When the water boils, it means floating; when noodles enter the water, when the water is still, it means sinking;

    Boil again, it is two floats; put half a ladle of cold water in the pot, pour out the boiling water potential, it is two sinks;

    When the water is boiled again, it is three floats; when a handful of vegetable leaves are put into the pot, the water temperature in the pot drops and stops boiling, which is three sinks;

    Most of the vegetables for cooking noodles are seasonal leafy vegetables.

    In spring and summer, rattan and rattan vegetables are mostly used, and in the rest of the time, they are Chinese cabbage and baby vegetables. When there is really no lotus white, it can also be used as a side dish for cooking noodles.

    After sinking and floating, the noodles became firmer. When the water boiled again, the proprietress quickly scooped up a spoonful of hot soup, poured it into a bowl, and dispersed the complicated seasonings so that the flavors were fully mixed in the soup base.  When it was time, a chopstick reached into the pot and quickly scooped up the noodles.

    Once you clamp the noodles, it is almost the whole of the pot, then stir the chopsticks clockwise, stir the remaining noodles in the pot with the tip of the chopsticks, and scoop them into the bowl.

    Put the noodles into a bowl and mix with the soup.  The tender white noodles are rolled in the bright red soup, and the unique oily color of lard is perfectly supported by the soup, waiting for me to open it.

    Scoop two spoonfuls of sour radish and cover it on the surface, it looks like it will increase your appetite.

    "Your noodles are here! Eat slowly! Huo Yunha!" The proprietress put the noodles on my table, reminded her before turning and leaving.

    This noodle looks very appetizing, and I haven't eaten yet, just stirring it makes my mouth water.  The noodles should be mixed evenly, and the noodles should be covered with soup.

    Twist a chopstick, add sauerkraut and pickled radish, mix them together and pass them into the mouth.

    Close your eyes and chew lightly, the tenderness and chewiness of the noodles, and the crisp taste of the pickled radish, the faint sour taste permeates the mouth.

    The noodles are more layered and have a more special taste.

    With the blessing of sour radish, the noodles are more appetizing, and at the same time, the noodles are full of saliva, and the baptism of the noodles begins.

    The boss's Shaozi gave a lot, and this Shaozi seemed to have a secret.

      It is not a simple sour radish, sour radish and fresh radish, cut into cubes according to a certain ratio, added minced meat and stir-fried Shaozi, which has the sourness of sour radish and fresh  The crispness of the radish and the aroma of the minced meat are really amazing!

    During the period, finely chopped green pepper powder was also mixed in, which enriched the taste.

    The unique taste is mouth-watering!  After eating the noodles, take out the Shaozi in the bowl and eat it clean. It really has an endless aftertaste.

    "Boss, here's a bowl of noodle soup." After finishing the noodles, I motioned for the lady boss to serve me a free bowl of noodle soup.

    This is a trick taught to me by Zheng Xiaolong at the same table, and most outsiders don't know it!

    Eating noodles is to be served with a bowl of noodle soup, the original taste!  It also saves the money for drinking water, unlike Zhang Haifei and Ye Zhiping who are rich, but also ordered a bottle of Arctic Ocean.

    Before, when Xiaolong took me to eat beef noodles, he told me that noodles and noodle soup are the perfect match.  Sure enough, after eating noodles, take a sip of boiling hot noodle soup, wash away the spicy taste in your mouth, and burp with satisfaction, this is life!

    Inner satisfaction to a higher level!

    Both the boss and the proprietress are retired workers, and there is basically no rent at the back door of the community, so the corresponding noodles are sold relatively cheap.

    Such a big bowl of noodles costs about three taels, only eight yuan!

    I have to lament the simplicity of the working people.

    After drinking the noodle soup, sit down for a few minutes to let the freshly eaten noodles digest first.

    At this time, there was just a breeze blowing, and the leaves were rustling. In the hot summer, only at this moment did I feel a little refreshed.

    The old residential quarters, dilapidated tables, chairs and benches, there is no air conditioner or other equipment at all, a breeze is a gift from nature.

    Stretch out, let the short sleeves attached to your back have a chance to feel the breeze and evaporate some sweat.

    "Take the money, boss!" He stood up and handed over ten yuan, marking a successful conclusion to this satisfying meal.

    "Young man, is the food okay?" the proprietress asked with a smile.

    "Well, it tastes good, especially the radish, which is delicious." I answered truthfully.

    "Hahaha, come here often if you like to eat. Many students in your school like to eat noodles with me~" Let me go, the proprietress is really unusual, so it can be seen that I am a student of Beida Jade Bird?

    "Hahaha~" I didn't know what to say for a while, so I could only smile awkwardly.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
