Section 539 Southern Pot Helmet

Suddenly, Garfield, who was eating with relish next to me, looked excited, he couldn't help but say that he got up, and pulled out his sword unexpectedly with lightning speed, and the scabbard behind him and the sword body rubbed under the clanging sound, we are also like a great enemy, sword rattling, wait and see, what happened, is it those black-clothed masked people who quietly came from the sky again, yes, we have also lived a long period of peace, away from the life of swords and swords, indeed, they should have appeared.

But we didn't see the man in black for a long time, so I couldn't help but ask Garfield, "What the hell is going on? What did you see or hear, tell us quickly?" Quicksand was shocked and said, "I just heard a loud bang on the ground, and it's close at hand." So it is estimated that those men in black are waiting for the opportunity to move, but why haven't they come in after this broad daylight, shouldn't they. ”

What the hell is going on? I pricked up my ears and listened carefully, and looked at it, not far from the side of a big red hearth, a large iron plate as black as iron, a thick Song Dynasty woman is skillfully waving a rolling pin in the air, only to see her skillful movements, hands and feet quickly will have been fermented in advance, casually with a thick hand lightly, it will be a small dough of about one or two, and then use the rolling dough to skillfully roll the small dough into a mixture, from top to bottom on the agent evenly smeared with the ancestral homemade pastry, roll it into a round shape, and then dip the white sesame seeds on both sides of the dough, and then roll out the round shape dough with crisp and white sesame seeds, while knocking on the board, at this time it is indeed a sound, loud, and then roll out the dough into a round cake with a diameter of 10 cm, put it on the flat iron pan on the stove on both sides of the frying, and when it is half-cooked, the round cake is pasted into the oven on both sides and baked until golden brown and taken out for later use. I see, Garfield thought that the sound of the beating was the murderous sound of those men in black sharpening their knives, and I couldn't help but relax and couldn't help but laugh dumbly: "Big brother, you are so nervous, the grass and trees are all soldiers, this turned out to be just the sound of hitting the pot helmet." ”

Garfield probably never knew what a pot helmet was, and asked curiously, "What is a pot helmet?"

I said with a smile: "Guokui is one of the famous snacks in the southern county. The surface of the pot is hard and the beating sound is loud, but the entrance is crispy like a biscuit, crispy and fragrant. Carry it far away, not crisp and scattered, three or five days later is still crispy and sweet, in half a month, can maintain the crispy characteristics, because it is easy to eat, suitable for all ages, unique flavor, delicious and inexpensive will become a delicacy on the tip of the tongue. The pot helmet should belong to the ancient Chinese military rations, because the officers and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty used the helmet as a cooking utensil to cook the dough cake, so it was named the pot helmet. The pot helmet dough is smeared with crisp, also called the crisp pot helmet, and because its production process is side rolling, when accompanied by the rolling rod hitting the board, it makes a unique wooden sound, so the production process is called the pot helmet. There are several kinds of classification of this pot helmet, there are round pot helmets, and there are two kinds of salty and sweet, respectively called salt pot helmets, sugar pot kui, and square pot helmets are also called square crisp pot helmets, especially crispy, like biscuits, layer by layer crisp, the practice is not the same, the practice of round pot helmet is - take flour, first and into a dead dough block, put it on the desk press, fold and press until the face is moist, when the leaven surface is even, cover it tightly with a warm cloth; take an appropriate amount of flour agent, push it with a rolling pin, put on the condiments, and then roll it into a thin round cake with a diameter of about 20 cm, put it on the iron plate of the stove and turn it back and forth until the skin color is slightly bulging, and then put it into the stove and turn it over and bake, depending on its slight charring, golden color, slightly bulging in the middle of the pot. Fang crisp pot kui is one of the famous snacks in the south. After fermentation, select the best flour after fermentation, smear with special seasonings such as salt and pepper, knead it repeatedly, make a small square, stick sesame seeds at both ends, press it into a square cake, put it into a pan to harden, and then put it into the four walls of the oven under the pot, and bake it until the sauce is red. ”

Brother Huxiu licked the oil from the corner of his mouth and said meaningfully; It just so happened that I had eaten two big bowls of dry rice with fat intestines, so hurry up and eat the pot helmet while the iron is hot. ”

We came to the front of the pot helmet shop, and after a while, the carefully baked pot helmet came out of the oven, all kinds of varieties are dazzling, each with its own characteristics, steaming, and beautiful. I quickly lost no time in asking the boss for a round sugar pot that was round like a full moon bulging sugar pot, the aroma was thick, rich, and puffy, I couldn't wait for the wolf to spit out a big bite, a bite down, the taste of my childhood, the taste of my hometown involuntarily filled my heart, or the taste at that time, it was really evocative, the sweet brown sugar flowed out unscrupulously like magma, the skin was yellow and crispy, crispy, soft inside, crispy, it was so delicious, I ate a big pot helmet in three or five bites, but I still felt hungry, unwilling, and asked for two square crispy pot helmetsThis is another completely different flavor, let me continue to eat with relish, a few of them also devoured and eaten, eating with a smile, relish, Xiao Fei praised and said: "The gourmand Mr. Cai Lan once said that food is for people who know it to enjoy." Because of knowing the roots, food and diners will be in a parallel dimension of time and space, and over time, the smell, temperament, and aura of food will also spread with this dimension. It is indeed worth the trip, your southern part is really a treasure of nature, outstanding people, especially the food in the south is so distinctive, it is simply fragrant, unforgettable, and the aftertaste is endless. ”
