In Guangxi, what is the standard for a bowl of top-quality rice noodles?

Dazzling ingredients?

Fragrant soup?

Or the ingredients of delicacies from the mountains and sea?

Both are and are not.

In Guangxi, rice noodles are not an untouchable delicacy on a jade plate, but a real delicacy that is close to life in the streets and alleys.

Nanning · Good rice noodles do not require a good pot. People born in giant cities such as Beijing and Shanghai have been familiar with a sentence since childhood: "This taste is far worse than the local ones!" The analogy applies to Guangxi rice noodles.

No matter what kind of delicious rice noodles you eat, when it comes to Guangxi people, the flavor will definitely be incomparable to the original version.

It happened that my Guangxi friend Longlong returned to Nanning from Beijing to develop his career. When the plane landed, I called him as soon as possible: "Friend, it's time to prove the strength of Guangxi fans!" When I was waiting for me, Longlong was already on the motorcycle.

I finished a bowl of noodles.

"Can rice noodles packed in paper bowls be delicious?" I questioned.

"Does the delicious noodle have anything to do with the pot?" Longlong looked at me with disdain, "In Guangxi, good noodle never needs a good pot. Get on the bus!" When exploring Nanning while sitting on the back seat of a motorcycle, you will find this

The city is literally "surrounded" by rice noodles, and the street signs are filled with the names of various rice noodles, which is dizzying.

The motorcycle passed through the falling dusk and stopped on a busy street.

"This is an authentic time-honored brand." Longlong said, opening the curtain of Shuji Old Friends Noodle Shop.

I looked up at the menu posted on the wall of the noodle shop. Sure enough, there was nothing but rice noodles. The main distinction was soup noodles and dry noodles. The rice noodles had different names due to the addition of different side dishes, such as siu mei and pig's feet.

The rice noodle production process in time-honored noodle shops is very standardized, and the chef can mix the cooked rice noodles with various ingredients in the blink of an eye.

Barbecued pork, deep-fried peanuts, shredded vegetables, quail eggs, there are many varieties.

I brought the rice noodles to the table, and Longlong took out two cups of "Cao Zhu Gong" pearl milk tea from his schoolbag, which is said to be a perfect match with rice noodles.

I picked up a chopstick of rice noodles and put it into my mouth. It was indeed delicious!

The rich ingredients create a very mixed flavor. After taking a sip of the perfectly sweet milk tea, I finally understood the happiness of Guangxi people.

There are all kinds of good powder stores in Nanning.

"The most famous rice noodle in Nanning is probably Laoyou Noodles. There are also good snail noodle and Guilin rice noodle shops." I took out my phone and prepared to mark them one by one. Longlong smiled and said, "Don't think about using the mobile app to check it. Local

Most of the old noodle shops that people eat are opened by grandparents. How many of them can register the store information on their mobile phones? It’s better to write down the address. Since rice noodle shops are popping up everywhere in Nanning, the locals are naturally more strict about good noodle shops.

The requirement is that the noodles must be fresh, and other ingredients must have "each has its own taste."

"The most important thing about pig's trotters noodles is whether the pig's trotters are tasty. The Longjiang pig's trotters noodles that can't be found on the map are very good. For sour noodles, it depends on whether the flavor of the sauce is authentic. Subway Station Line 1 Binzhou South

The old Binzhou South Street sour noodles at the exit of the street are my favorite. Guilin rice noodles have more requirements, the quality of the pot cooking, the seasoning of the brine and the freshness of the noodles are indispensable," Longlong said, recommending it.

Give me some noodle shops that he often goes to. One of them, Sheng Ge Vietnamese Roll Noodles, is actually in Wuming District of Nanning.

"Did you come all this way just to eat a bowl of rolled noodles?" I asked Longlong.

"Of course I won't do it normally, but when I go to Wuming for business, I will definitely eat the roll noodles from this restaurant." When I asked, Longlong said that he had lived in Wuming a long time ago, and it was originally Nanning.

In the Vietnamese immigrant village, Vietnamese-style rice noodle dishes are very common. When I was a kid and visiting graves with my family, we would have lunch at this Vietnamese rice noodle shop.

The story of food is always closely related to the story of people. For Guangxi people, rice noodles are a part of life, and the special taste at certain special moments is also written into the memory together with the scene at that time, with human events.

Plot has become the irreplaceable and most unique flavor in life.

Early the next morning, I went to have breakfast at the Huangji rice noodle shop recommended by Longlong, "This is a 30-year-old rice noodle shop in Guilin.

"I found the store early. There were already many people sitting in the small store eating noodles. There was an endless stream of customers. They didn't talk much when buying noodles. They only said how many taels they wanted.

The proprietress collected money and sent out fans in one go. Only then did I understand why Longlong said she was "domineering".

I was a little embarrassed because I didn't understand the "rules" of buying noodles, "What to eat?" Seeing that I was timid, the boss lady probably saw that it was my first time back, so she explained: "How many ingredients should I eat, beef brisket, pot roast, and barbecued pork?"

Two for a few taels."

I ordered 3 taels of barbecued pork noodles, and a stainless steel bowl came out of the powder window.

"Eat the mixed noodles first, then add some soup when you're done eating, and then eat the soup noodles." A girl in line explained to me. It seems that this way of eating has become an old rule here.

"The noodles here have a sweet taste, and I have loved them since I was a child," the girl said.
