When summer comes, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, which makes people don't know what to eat, and the meat doesn't smell good when they see it. The hot weather makes people lose their appetite, so if they want to eat well, we can adjust our diet, cook less hot meals and cook more cool and delicious meals, such as cold noodles, bean jelly, cold fish and cold noodles. These can be used as staple foods, and it is particularly comfortable to go home in the hot sun and eat a bowl of such meals.
Cold noodles are the most popular. When it's hot, many families will make cold noodles, which will taste cool, sour and refreshing, but it's hard to say whether it's good or not. For example, the cold noodles made by someone stick together and clip a chopstick. For example, some people make cold noodles that are too thick to eat, and even if they are cooked well, they are not very delicious.
So what can I do to make cold noodles taste better?
When it comes to making cold noodles, many people are used to putting the cooked noodles in cold water for a while, which can cool the noodles quickly and make them not stick, but it seems that there is no problem, but it is actually a big problem.
Because after cold water, the cold noodles become wet and the water content is too high. Although the noodles are not sticky, they are not loose, and the taste is difficult to adhere to the noodles, which makes them taste bad. Moreover, if the raw water is too cold, it will easily upset your stomach. If the boiled water is too cold, it is necessary to prepare a pot of boiled water in advance, which will delay the time. If the population is large, I am afraid that a pot of boiled water is not enough.
Therefore, it is not good to have cold water! If you want to eat better cold noodles, remember that noodles can't be cooked well without cold water!
How to do it? I'll teach you a trick. It's not hard to eat, but it's very satisfying. Let me share with you the detailed method of making cold noodles. Come and have a look and try it according to the method.
How to make cold noodles:
Prepare some alkaline noodles, and use them to make cold noodles taste better. Generally, alkaline noodles are dry noodles, which are easy to buy in supermarkets. When I was a child, my mother used to make cold noodles by adding some edible alkali to the dough and then pressing it out with a dough press. Now it is convenient to buy anything, which saves the step of making noodles by herself.
Add water to the pot to boil, put the noodles in the pot, boil them on high fire, and then cook them on low heat for a while. The alkaline noodles themselves are very resistant to cooking, and if they are dry noodles, they need to be cooked for a long time.
Cook until the noodles are 90% ripe, that is, turn off the heat when there is a little hard core in the middle. Remember not to cook for too long, if the noodles are cooked, they will lose their tendons and taste bad.
After the noodles are fished out, the water is controlled first, then they are put into a basin and mixed with oil, and then they are cooled by a fan. During the blowing process, they are turned over with chopsticks, so that they are cooled quickly and the noodles pressed below will not become bad in taste.
Although this practice seems to be a joke, it is the traditional practice. My mother has been doing this all the time, and she still keeps this practice until now. By contrast, it is really delicious. Friends who have never tried it can try to cook less noodles.
After the noodles are blown to cool, the noodles will become well-rooted, not lumpy at all, but also stiff.
Next, let's make the juice. Crush the garlic and put it in a garlic masher. Add a little salt and a little boiled water, mash it into garlic paste, pour it into a bowl, add boiled water and stir, and make cold noodles with garlic water.
Scoop a spoonful of sesame paste, add a little sesame oil and stir until it is smooth, then add a little cold water and stir. This method thins the sesame paste for later use.
Put some noodles in a bowl, add shredded cucumber or scalded bean sprouts, add salt, chicken essence, soy sauce, aged vinegar, garlic water, and finally spoon sesame sauce, and add some Chili oil if you like spicy food.
After stirring evenly, the cold noodles can be eaten, and each noodle is attached with juice, which tastes delicious. Before, I tried to pass cold water, but when I ate it, I found that the noodles were not strong and tasteless, and I had to stir them while eating, because the juice sank at the bottom of the bowl and was not wrapped in noodles at all, so it was not fragrant.
Now everyone understands, remember two things when making cold noodles:
(1) Don't cook noodles better than cold water, just blow them with the wind to cool them. Noodles don't lump, but they still have tendons.
(2) When adding juice to noodles, remember to add garlic water instead of minced garlic, and sesame sauce should be diluted, and it cannot be added directly to noodles.
