Foodies know no boundaries.

We have a saying that good soup makes good noodles;

There is also a saying abroad, Big Soup, Big Love!

When you wear an apron and go among the pots and pans to cook this Laotian noodle soup:

The lid of the stew pot hums softly as time goes by. The whole house smells good;

The splash of fish sauce adds to the umami flavor of the soup base;

Collect all the toppings and arrange them on the plate, lower your head and smell it, It's just crazy exciting.

Come on, it’s time,

Put on your smile, assemble your noodle bowl, take a sip of hot soup,

In the cold November, it It gives you the warmth and comfort you need.

Thank you, Laos!

Today, someone in the group has a birthday. Everyone shouts, happy birthday! I think a bowl of hot noodle soup would be the perfect occasion for a birthday! So, I made a bowl of Laos special rice noodles, took photos, and sent them out to wish my friends (shuai) another year older (lao).

In our country, eating longevity noodles on birthdays has become a custom. When I was a child, before cakes were popular, what I looked forward to every birthday was a bowl of noodles made by my mother. The rich toppings include my favorite mushrooms, fungus and shrimp, plus two poached eggs. It is warm and satisfying in one bowl, and the birthday becomes meaningful.

In Laos, khao poon is also a well-known traditional dish. It is eaten on special occasions such as weddings. Coconut milk soup is smothered over rice noodles, vegetables and aromatic herbs, and a hearty squeeze of lime juices together into a tantalizing burst of flavors to tantalize your taste buds. I wonder if a halo appears above your head and you discover a zone of pure happiness?

Mr. Xiang was amazed by the soup base of khao poon, and he slurped up this amazing broth.

He asked, what is in this soup?

I said, how about coconut milk and fish sauce? Is it delicious?

He said, delicious! However, this vegetable is too weird to eat raw! Wife, are you sure the locals in Laos eat it raw?

Yes! The Laotian diet is very natural, and the dishes always contain a lot of fresh raw vegetables, and they even like to eat some bitter vegetables. There is a slang saying in Laos "van pen lom; khom pen ya," (Sanskrit), which means "sweetness will make you fall, but bitterness is the antidote", which is quite similar to our "good medicine tastes bitter"! In fact, the herbs and special sauces commonly used in Laotian cuisine are the real stars: mint, dill and galangal are all very important cooking herbs; garlic, shallots, lemongrass and other herbs are also often used In the process of cooking. Therefore, the entrance of Laotian food is a very rich "fireworks explosion" taste.

Many catering bosses always shout, "Have it your way"! Well, it’s time to let this sentence return to the place where it really belongs - return to the family and cook a meal by yourself. This is the real "I choose my taste"! For example, starting with the delicious coconut milk noodle soup in Laos, it will make you realize how creative cooking is. The most important thing is: absolutely pure, natural, and no additives!

Make something new tonight!

Good luck! !

The end! See you!
