Tanzi rice noodles in the King City in the 1930s. Rice vermicelli is one of the flavorful snacks that Guilin people are most attached to. Guilin rice noodles are made from rice by soaking, crushing and steaming, and are round in shape and as thin as floss, extremely tough and elastic, and thus smooth and refreshing.
The rice and water used to make Guilin rice noodles are very delicate, and the rice should be made from the brown rice produced in the vicinity of Guilin, and it is said that the rice from the two rivers over the Lingchuan River is the best, while the water must be made from the Li River. If you use rice from the north or water from elsewhere, the rice noodles will be easy to break, and the taste is not good, and it tastes crumbly. This shows that "one side of the water and soil to raise people", this is a wonderful saying.
The first thing to do is to feed people is water, water is good, good water, good mountains, good water, must be out of good talent. From this reasoning, but all food as long as the water is good, the food is good. Guilin rice noodles so, other food is also so. For example, Maotai wine, Maotai distillery was built in the Chishui River, out of the factory, to Maotai town, Chishui River section changed, the water quality has changed, the same brewed in an area of Maotai wine, the flavor of the difference between the many.
In addition, eat Guilin rice noodles also when it comes to the ingredients, generally have two kinds of soup powder and brine powder ingredients, such as soup powder available in chicken soup, rib soup, also available brisket soup, soup, such as water. Lo Mein is to use chicken, duck, pork and beef or their offal boiled brine pouring, brine there is a must-put condiment is Guilin's unique Luo Han Guo, sweet and delicious.
The most important thing is the rice noodle noodles with the marinade, there are barbecued pork, beef tendon meat, the most characteristic is the pot roast, this is a kind of deep-fried pork with skin, fragrant and crispy, a lot of people love this mouthful, but strangely enough, I like it the least. Guilin also has a very famous rice noodle called "horse meat rice noodle", in addition to its marinade is marinated horse meat slices, only a few rice noodles per bowl, but also its characteristics. Because of the small amount of flavorful meat, often eat up a bowl after a bowl.
I have eaten this "rare" in Guilin's official banquet, and did not feel as unique as the legend, but a kind of reputation, in fact, difficult to substandard feeling.
Whether it is soup noodles or brine noodles, the last procedure is to be accompanied by some chopped green onions, red chili peppers, yellow pickled bean curd, as well as fried soybeans or peanut rice. Often a bowl of rice noodles hates half the ingredients. I asked the owner of the rice noodles, rice noodles are economic snacks, why so complicated? The boss replied: "It is called color and flavor ah."
