In several shops located in Luohe City, we can see that the price of Hu Spicy Soup is1a bowl in 88 yuan and a bowl of shark fin Hu Spicy Soup in 90 yuan, and special soups ranging from 15 yuan to 90 yuan have been developed. What's more, a Hu-la-tang shop has also launched a bowl of soup with a sky-high price from 168 yuan to 368 yuan! It is understood that the "golden beans" in the soup are mainly "sea cucumber, Tricholoma matsutake and Cordyceps sinensis". It is reported that the decoration of these Hu spicy soup shops is also tall, and netizens said: "It looks like a coffee shop."
As an authentic Henan native, let's talk about the course of drinking Hu spicy soup. At first, there were 50-cent bowls and one-piece bowls of Xiaoyao Hu spicy soup in about 90 years. At that time, it was too small to drink three bowls at a time (it was really delicious), and it rose to 2 yuan, 3 yuan, 5 yuan, 10 yuan almost in 2000, and I had to drink several bowls when I went out to work. Last year, I went back to have a drink once (at the same store) at 20 or 30 in 50 yuan, but only one bowl (not expensive) didn't taste like that. I don't know what happened.
Zhengzhou Hongzhuan Road Qing Yan Hu Spicy Soup, not to mention how expensive, just wants to eat comfortably. Every time I go to Zhengzhou, as long as I live in Zhengzhou, I must eat breakfast in this store. My friend took me to Fang Zhongshan on Shunhe Road to drink it. Although Fang Zhongshan is famous, I personally feel that Qing Yan Hu Spicy Soup suits my taste ...
It took 2 12 yuan to drink a bowl of Gao Lao Da Steak Hot Soup in Yaxingna, Songshan Road. (Illegal parking 200 yuan, hot soup 7 yuan, oil cake 5 yuan)
The most famous Henan Hu-spicy soup is concentrated in Luohe, which was attacked by Beiwudu and Xiaoyao Town, the two cradles of Henan Hu-spicy soup. The competition was extremely fierce, and the famous "Fang Zhongshan" couldn't stand the competitive pressure and shut down, leaving the Luohe market.
I have been to Zhoukou, Xuchang, Pingdingshan and other surrounding cities, and I have tasted the famous local Hu spicy soup, which is really inferior to Luohe.
The price of Hu spicy soup in Luohe is basically: 4 yuan a bowl of beef, 5 yuan a bowl of mutton, and 3 yuan a fried bag (previously 4 yuan). There are 10 pieces and 15 pieces of Hu spicy soup in individual stalls, which are actually gimmicks. Luohe classic Hu spicy soup includes: Xiaoyao Town Zhong Wang Circle, Beiwudu, Shanji Hu spicy soup, Xiangbaxian Hu spicy soup, etc., which are generally served with fried dumplings, fried dough sticks and sesame cakes.
Hehe, I'd better drink Fang Zhongshan Hu spicy soup to calm my nerves. After all, it's only seven yuan a bowl.
Xiaoyao Hu spicy soup is longer than tradition, with rich and heavy taste and outstanding spicy taste, and the four basic ingredients are accurate in taste! Beiwudu Hu spicy soup advocates a mild taste, highlighting the flavor of meat over the flavor of medicine, trying to pursue the taste of the mean! At present, the popular Xiaoyao Hu Spicy Soup, Fang Zhongshan Gao Qun Sheng Zhong Wang Circle, etc., are all changing their tastes, neutralizing spicy and highlighting soup characters! It can be said that Beiwudu hot soup is forcing Xiaoyao hot soup to change! Only a few people named Yang, who account for the vast majority of Xiaoyao, still insist on the traditional taste of Xiaoyao hot soup!
To Long-lasting Hot Soup
Fried dough sticks with Hu spicy soup are our favorite and one of the most common breakfasts in Kaifeng. Ordinary to insignificant.
Historical records: mutton hot soup is characterized by burning mutton, vermicelli, gluten, pepper and so on; A slightly spicy, soft and delicious soup. It originated in Bianliang, Tokyo during the Northern Song Dynasty, and later spread in the Yellow River basin such as Henan. In the Riverside Scene on the Qingming Festival, Bi Xiao, who carved the bustling eater of Zhouqiao Yi Cong porridge shop, reappeared a glimpse of the "Hu La Tang" at that time.
In the childhood memory of more than 50 years ago, you can eat a bowl of mutton hot soup with a dime and a fritter with a nickel, but you can't say that you are willful. Even if you think about it, you will make a mistake in your heart first; At that time, "there was no surplus grain in the landlord's house"; Every family lives in poverty. A salary of 350 yuan is needed to support the lives of 70 to 80 people, which is rarely budgeted. Therefore, it is the happiest thing to eat fried dough sticks with Hu spicy soup once in the morning.
There are few places to sell breakfast on the street, only sellers who carry loads or push cars can be seen vaguely at the corners of Beijiekou and Hutong. The seller, who is less than a hundred paces away from my home, is a stall that bears the burden under the wall in Caomenli. Whether it's spring, summer, autumn and winter, or the rain and snow are falling, before the sun gets up, you can hear the sultry shouts of "Hu Spicy Soup and Fried Noodles" pouring in the hutong, which are full of Kaifeng dialect and saturated with the charm of "Erjiaxian".
Next to the bamboo hook that stands against the wall: at one end, a crock barrel tightly wrapped in oil cotton cloth is filled with steaming hot soup; At the other end, fried dough sticks were "sizzling" in the oil pan on the tin bucket coal stove. A stall owner with a white beard, two or three wooden tables and bamboo stools, four or five diners with relish, and a long queue of six or seven people to buy. Every morning when I go to primary school, the small schoolbag on my shoulder will be full of covets, and I will slow down eagerly. Under the temptation of the crisp fried dough sticks and the fragrant Hu spicy soup, I will turn around step by step, and it is hard to leave ... So, I always have to work hard to save change for many days before I can go to "happiness" once.
I don't know how long it took, and I don't know why. Suddenly, in the hutong in the morning, there was no longer the cry of "Hu spicy soup fried dough sticks"; The wall followed, and I never saw the figure of the seller again ... Perhaps, because I was addicted to that rare "happiness", I never drank Hu spicy soup again since then. Later, when I moved and left there, I gradually forgot the stumbling block and melancholy.
Life is not long, and fifty years have passed quickly. In the morning, there are all kinds of breakfasts and hot soup restaurants all over the street. Eating fried dough sticks with Hu spicy soup has long since lost its former "happiness" mark. Earlier, I heard that there was an authentic mutton hot soup restaurant in the north of Laodong Road, which reminded me of the past for a moment. In the end, I hesitated and went to "happiness" with the entanglement of "now, nearing my village, meeting people and I dare not ask a single question".
Although the soup is delicious, I still feel that it is missing: "Hu spicy soup, fried dough sticks" moistens the beauty of the old Kaifeng; Lack of a little delicious taste and tunnel in hutong lanes; Still can't replace the happy memory of the fragrant autumn. It's hard to board the passenger ship that went away in childhood with the old ticket in my heart. After all, those who reach for a long time are not in the horizon but in their hearts, and those who last for a long time are not in heaven and earth but in love. Is it happiness to be delicious? !
-Never miss again.
As a native of Zhoukou, Henan, the most expensive thing to drink is a bowl of beef hot soup with five pieces! Sufficient material, plenty of meat and heavy taste. Drink it numb in your mouth, spicy! Add some sesame sauce. A little vinegar! It tastes really good! I don't like those sky-high Hu spicy soup, I feel it's all hype, and there is no taste of Hu spicy soup!
I've had a cup of 50 yuan's hot soup, that is, a bite. It can be said that my affection for Hu spicy soup is still very deep, because I often travel north and south for work reasons, and I often see people selling Hu spicy soup in other places, from Baicheng in the north, Haikou in the south, Shanghai in the east and Hami in the west. As long as I sell Hu spicy soup, I will try it. Although it is far from the taste at home, I still have this complex. When I come home from a business trip, I put eating Hu spicy soup in the first place. I will admire all the slightly famous shops. Now I can't talk about whether that one is good or not. It may be because of geographical reasons that Fang Zhongshan, where I live, has become a habit to eat more of this one. Even if I went to Xiaoyao Town, Yang Laoda and other families, I felt so much. Anyway, I don't think the complex of Hu spicy soup will change in the future.
