What is a roll of powder?

/ Rice noodles and bait silk are in a tripartite confrontation /

Roll rice noodles, which often appear in the quiet corner of breakfast shops or food stalls for supper. Some people are loyal fans who can't live without it, and some people are passers-by who are tired of eating rice noodles and bait, but no matter how they choose, it should have a place in the staple food industry in Yunnan.

They are all made of rice only, but rice noodles, bait pieces and rolled powder are different things. Rice noodles are raw after molding and need to be cooked and eaten on site; Bait blocks are rice that should be steamed first, then pounded into bait, and finally made into various shapes; The rolled rice flour is directly steamed with rice paste. It can be a rolled rice flour with some dishes, or it can be cut into different shapes, which is similar to rice noodles. The production process of these three products is completely different, and the appearance of the finished products is also different.

, which can be easily distinguished from rice noodles in shape. The rice noodles are cylindrical and linear, while the rolled powder is flat. It can be a finger-wide shape similar to Vietnamese river powder or Chaoshan bare powder; It can also be a rolled shape similar to that of rice rolls, Guangdong; It can also be very wide, similar to the shape of lasagna in pasta.

This finger-wide rice product is an idea of rice flour.

The raw material of rice flour is simple, that is, rice which is abundant in Yunnan. After being fully soaked, it is ground into rice pulp, filtered, and steamed in a greased machine. After steaming, it is taken down and cooled, and then cut into the required shape.

The original way to make rice rolls is by hand, but now many stores will also buy prepared rice noodles directly, mix them with water to make rice rolls. Although the powder is fixed, the difference of water quality in different regions and the slight difference of powder-water ratio will make the rolled powder with different taste. Want to get as thin as cicada's wings, warm and smooth taste of rolled powder, all rely on the experience of the store.

In Yunnan, besides the common rice, there are various colored rice such as Redmi and purple rice, so besides the common white rolled rice, there are Redmi rolled rice made of Redmi in Mojiang and other places.
