Although the name minced meat noodles is almost a household name, some traditions of minced meat noodles are little known. For example, people eat minced meat noodles instead of soup, but only noodles. If you have seen the second episode of China on the Tip of the Tongue and The Story of Staple Food, you will also hear the commentator mention that "you only eat noodles, not soup".

Eat minced meat noodles instead of soup. Where are those soups?

In fact, all noodle soups are recycled in the pot. It may be hard to believe and understand for city residents and friends in the south, but there is such an established way to eat minced meat noodles. Everyone just fished out the ingredients and noodles to eat. All the noodle soup is poured back into the cauldron where the noodles are cooked, and then the noodles are cooked.

Minced meat noodles were born in the countryside, and are usually made when the village is doing big things. Generally the whole village eats it. The way to eat is a water table, but because the pots for cooking noodles are limited, there are too many people in a village and only a little flour can be given at a time.

It is normal for people in this village to eat back and forth several times in order to get full. But the speed of cooking noodles will be accelerated, and there is no time to cook the soup again to flavor it. So there is a tradition of minced meat noodles. After eating the noodles and ingredients, everyone will take the initiative to bring the noodles and bowls, pour the soup back into the pot, and then cook the pot again.

So basically only the first wave of noodles is clean, and the rest are noodle soup left by others. How many people drool in this noodle soup? I can't tell, and I can't think carefully. Although some rural people are used to this diet, it is still a very unhealthy and unhygienic tradition.

Noodles in minced meat soup are rolled heavier.

In addition to the above unacceptable traditions, noodle soup with minced meat has another feature, that is, the heavier it is cooked. The noodle soup cooked in the first pot was delicious, but I kept cooking it after I got back to the pot, and the soup became dark red and choking, which was not suitable for drinking.

Can't all the minced meat noodles in Qishan have soup?

In fact, there is no need to worry too much about eating Qishan noodles with minced meat in Shaanxi restaurants now. This tradition will be preserved except for particularly remote businesses or unscrupulous businesses. Generally, restaurants will take into account the hygiene of food and directly serve clean noodle soup to guests. I'm afraid this is the most unorthodox food you have ever eaten.

If you go to the countryside, try to eat the first batch of cooked noodles. If you have to, you can only follow everyone's example and eat only noodles and ingredients instead of soup. Don't eat a bowl or two. After all, under this tradition, if one person is ill, the whole village will suffer.
