The year is getting closer and closer, and the homesickness buried deep in my heart is fermenting little by little. So one night I dreamed that my mother was standing in front of the stove and making flour soup pancakes, and the red fire in the stove illuminated my mother's wrinkled face, which had been deeply cultivated by the years. When I was eating the steaming and fragrant noodle soup pancakes, I suddenly woke up, and the homesickness was irrepressibly overflowing.
No matter where he is, his wandering heart always loves the vermicelli pancakes made by his mother. Stranger in a foreign land, have you ever dreamed of your mother's cooking?
The people of northern Shaanxi are sincere, there are guests to visit, as soon as people enter the door, the first thing they will ask is, have you eaten, hurry up and get on the kang, I will cook for us. As he spoke, he would tie an apron and get busy on the stove. Of course, it is best to entertain guests, so the first choice is the noodle pancakes.
I remember when we were a guest at home, my mother and the guests exchanged a few words and they were busy cooking in front of the stove. The knives and pans clinked, and my mother began to prepare for the baked cakes. I found a small piece of cold powder, washed rapeseed, blanched mushrooms, soaked fungus, soaked vermicelli, cut green onions, cut tomatoes, and noodles. The mother who is busy in front of the stove always looks the most beautiful!
As an authentic person from northern Shaanxi, he stubbornly believes that only the handmade noodles in northern Shaanxi are the most delicious. Many of the noodles on the market look better than the handmade noodles in northern Shaanxi, the color is snow-white and beautiful, while the handmade noodles in northern Shaanxi are dull in color, and the handmade noodles in northern Shaanxi look slightly inferior in appearance. But as long as you soak in the water, you will immediately know which is higher and which is lower. The noodles on the market are soaked in water, and the time is a little longer, and the hair is coarse and soft. It takes a certain amount of time to cook the handmade vermicelli in northern Shaanxi even if it is boiled in the pot, and after the handmade vermicelli in northern Shaanxi is soaked, it will be more tenacious and will become crystal clear, as beautiful as crystal.
It didn't take long, and the meal was ready. Steaming noodle soup and pancakes are served. A bowl of noodle soup, green rape, red tomatoes, black fungus, crystal clear vermicelli, and mushrooms that stretch their bodies and become plump, the color may not be gorgeous, but it is the kind of beauty that is pleasing to the eye, natural beauty. The nutrition is balanced and the soup is delicious. The pancake presents another kind of beauty, it is said to be a cake, but in fact there is no "cake", it is a circle and layers of burnt yellow noodle rolls, tear a thin pie strip entrance, only feel crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the thin and crispy skin exudes the fragrance of oil, and the soft and tender flesh contains the mellow aroma and slightly sweetness of wheat noodles. Delicious, don't be afraid, there are still miles in the pot. The people of northern Shaanxi are afraid that the guests will be timid and dare not eat.
The guests shook off their cheeks and began to eat. The noodles sucked smoothly, the noodle soup snorted, and the pancakes were bitten crisply and sang in the mouth. After a while, sweat was already on my head. After eating a bowl, I don't know how many pancakes I have eaten. Then he took the bowl and said, "I'll eat less." After saying a little, he filled a bowl of noodle soup again, and his hand seemed to be out of his own hands, so he picked up the pancake again and hurriedly stuffed it into his mouth.
Finally, the guest gave a long and comfortable burp, wiped his mouth, and put down the bowl when his stomach was too much to bear. By the way, it's over.
The word "support" is worth thousands of sentences to describe the deliciousness of the flour soup pancakes.
Compared with those delicacies of the mountains and seas, the flour soup pancake is like the shandan flowers quietly blooming in the land of northern Shaanxi, without the noble and gorgeous peony flowers, without the passion of roses, just silently and elegantly spitting out their own fragrance. Plain noodles are facing the sky, unlike those famous dishes that can give people a visual and taste impact, but a different flavor tastes different. The home-style version of the noodle soup is relatively simple, and the main ingredients: one pound of cold powder, three rapeseeds, 50 grams of fungus, a section of green onions, and a tomato. Excipients: salt, white pepper, chicken essence, sesame oil, light soy sauce, sesame oil.
1 tomatoes and shallots, washed and finely chopped.
2 Wash the rape and cut into small pieces.
3. Soak the fungus, wash it clean, and control the water.
4 Soak the vermicelli.
5 Heat oil in a pot, choke the green onions until fragrant, and add water.
6 Add tomatoes to bring out the color and taste of the tomatoes, then add vermicelli.
7 Boil for two or three minutes, add jelly cubes, add light soy sauce, salt and pepper to taste.
8 Put the cold powder into the pot for two or three minutes, add the fungus, rape, chicken essence and monosodium glutamate, bring to a boil and pour a small amount of sesame oil out of the pot.
This version of the noodle soup is a blessing for vegetarians or those who are afraid of long meat, and it can also be added to large meat or mutton and boiled with its soup to make the taste richer and more delicious. Eating noodle soup must be accompanied by pancakes, just like the piano and song can play the sound of nature.
Method: 1 Add salt to the flour and stir evenly, slowly pour in water, stir while pouring until lumps appear, stop adding water, rub vigorously with your hands, knead until the surface is smooth and elastic, and then leave it aside for about 1 hour.
2 Sprinkle dry noodles on a cutting board, take out the dough and knead vigorously again until the dough is soft, then roll out the dough to half a centimeter of pancakes.
3 Sprinkle salt on the surface of the dough, then sprinkle with chopped green onion and sesame oil, and rub evenly with your hands.
4 Then gently roll up the dough with one hand and slowly pull the bread outward with the other hand to make the dough roll thin and even, and finally roll it into a cylindrical shape.
5 After rolling up, cut it evenly into several sections, pick up both hands and twist lightly in the opposite direction to wrap the green onion inside, then knead it round, roll it out into a dough, and so on.
6 Finally, pour oil into the pan and sear until golden brown on both sides.
The pancakes that have just come out of the pot are golden and attractive, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, exuding the unique fragrance of green onions. Paired with a bowl of steaming umami-flavored noodle soup, it will warm you up in this cold winter. All the cold is behind me, and the phrase "only food and love can't be disappointed" is repeated.
