Let me talk about the historical origin of Putian pavement first. Noodles originated in China, and "soup cakes" appeared before the Han Dynasty. "Soup cake" is actually a kind of "slice soup", which is made by holding the dough in one hand and tearing the slices in the other hand into a soup pot. In the Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 486-534), soup cakes were no longer held by hand, but were rolled thin and cut into thin strips with chopping boards, sticks, knives and other tools. This was the earliest noodle. In the Tang Dynasty (AD 6 18-907), people hung the cut noodles to dry, which was convenient for preservation and eating at any time. So the earliest dried noodles were born. In the Tang Dynasty, there were frequent exchanges between China and Japan, and the production technology of noodles and dried noodles soon spread to Japan. The earliest legend of noodle food in Europe was brought back to Italy from China by the traveler Kyle Polo in 1295. But this statement does not seem to be *. Some historians believe that noodles were introduced to Europe by Asian slaves who worked as cooks in wealthy Italy. Later, it spread to Putian, Fujian and was accepted by the local working people, thus extending the Putian area.
So why can the simple Putian noodles arouse everyone's unique interest? Of course, it has its own unique place. The key of Putian noodles lies in gluten, broth and ingredients. Preparation usually begins the night before. Gluten is of course the first process. Unlike Shanxi noodles or Lamian Noodles noodles, the dough is pulled into fine noodles on the spot. This kind of noodles should be made of different flours in proportion, and the noodles should be tough and not easy to paste after cooking. Cooking broth is also an important procedure. Choose the best bone segment in pig bones. The broth cooked should be glistening and delicious. The amount of water added to each broth is fixed, neither thick nor thin. Then there are the ingredients, such as lean meat, mushrooms, shrimp skin, scallops, oysters, clams and leeks. The authentic Putian noodles will also be added with red mushrooms. After all the previous processes are completed, it is a fire. Noodles are called noodles because they are cooked slowly on slow fire, so that the flavor of broth and ingredients can penetrate into noodles. This way, the noodles will taste and the soup will be sticky.
Of course, the most important thing to make a decent Putian noodle is to pay attention to the temperature, but the difference of Putian noodle is that while paying attention to the temperature on the left, the time to eat noodles is also very particular. Generally speaking, noodles can be eaten after 3-5 minutes, otherwise, the noodles will burn and will not have this taste. Therefore, for authentic Putian noodles, cooking a large pot of noodles is also very risky. If it takes too long, it will be abandoned. There are many accessories: mung bean sprouts, leek segments are scalded with a little oil until they are cut and cooled, and garlic is diced and fried with low fire (that is, diced garlic in Japanese noodle restaurant). Noodles mixed with noodles has become a must-have dish for Putian people's wedding reception, and it is also a must-have dish for every household in the New Year, and it is also a must-have dish for Putian immortals to meet Putian restaurants.
Finally, Bian Xiao brought you the practice of Putian noodles:
1. Wash and shred Chinese cabbage. Soak the mushrooms until they are soft. Saute mushrooms in two tablespoons of oil, then add Chinese cabbage and saute until soft. Add seasoning and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat. Add gravy and cook together.
2. Boil the other half pot of water, add noodles and cook, then take out the noodles and put them in a bowl.
3. When the gravy is cooked and the soup is thick, turn off the fire and add seasoning and chopped parsley.
4. Put the noodles in a bowl and pour in the cooked gravy.
Raw materials of marinated soup: scallops, shrimps, dried clams, mushrooms, dried squid, lean meat, duck eggs and garlic.
This is the practice of Putian pavement brine soup:

2. Chop garlic, pour it into oil and saute until fragrant, then pour in mushrooms, dried squid, scallops and shrimps and stir fry a few times.
3. Boil water in another pot (the amount of water depends on the food intake, generally two people need to add about 1000ml of water), and pour in 2 fried raw materials and lean meat.
4. After the soup is boiled, add the thickener, then break the duck eggs and stir them evenly, and then slowly pour in the boiled soup.
