Chapter 167: A Bowl of Noodles

If they wait for the subsidy from the imperial court, these people will not be in trouble for a while, but their future life is still not very optimistic. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info to rejuvenate these people and this county government is also something that Li Hao cares about.

The other is the place where they are staying now, where Li Hao said that it should be made into a place dedicated to cultivating physicians. If it weren't for the help of the military camp and the government officials, it would not have been possible to be organized into a large piece of open flat land, which is larger than the county seat of this county capital.

And because of Li Hao, the wasteland here is still being expanded. It would be a waste to abandon this place after the plague has been cured.

There is no arable land, all around it is wasteland, and the only advantage may be the easy access to water and the many springs in the surrounding mountains. Li Hao wanted to cooperate with Taoism and build a school in this place specifically for training doctors, but this was far from enough, and a school could not raise many people.

So Li Hao thought of another thing, to set up a special food processing workshop here, which is roughly the same as the industrial area of later generations. In this way, the place will be able to feed a lot of people, and it will attract more people because it is a food sale.

If you want to set up a food processing workshop, the things that Li Hao made before naturally can't be used here. But it doesn't matter, apart from those, Li Hao has other things in his hands that can be taken out. For example, noodles can be stored in reserve noodles - somen noodles.

This thing definitely has a future at this time, and compared to other noodles that have to be handmade every meal, somen noodles that can be stored and stored are undoubtedly much more advantageous. You can make it at any time and take it out when you need it.

"What are Lang Jun doing with noodles?"

Noodles originated in ancient China, and the earliest written records of noodles also appeared in China. By the time of the Tang Dynasty, this land has a history of noodle making and eating for more than 1,000 years, and the people of this land are naturally very familiar with each other.

Because noodles are a kind of food that is easy to make, easy to eat, and nutritious, it can be a staple food and a fast food. As soon as this kind of thing came out, it was quickly accepted and loved by the people of the world, and the people of Datang were no exception.

It's just that the variety of noodles at this time is limited, and it is not a variety of practices in later generations, and the cooking method is also very monotonous. Li Hao's idea is very simple, that is, to improve the noodle practice of later generations and use it in advance to this time, one is somen noodles and the other is ramen.

Neither of these faces appeared at this time, one did not appear until the Song Dynasty, and the other did not appear until the Ming Dynasty. However, ramen is freshly made and eaten first, so it cannot be collected, so naturally it cannot be resold to other places, and it cannot be mass-produced, so only somen noodles are the most suitable.

This is something that Li Hao remembered after the rice noodles came out, and the production method of handmade noodles Li Hao himself was clear, and he had seen the old people in the family make it when he was a child. And the method of making ramen is what he got from the system, so it's just right to use it at this time.

Southerners like rice, northerners like pasta, this has been the rule for a long time, so Li Hao doesn't have to doubt the sales prospects of dried noodles and ramen in Datang, not to mention that he still has his own channels to promote these things, can he still sell them?

Wu Shun is now following Li Hao to take care of Li Hao, and this day he couldn't help but be curious when he saw that Li Hao had time to come back and meet after going to see a patient. Li Hao had flour, well water, edible salt, vegetable oil, and eggs in front of him, which looked different.

"This time I made something special, you haven't seen it." Li Hao replied with a smile after listening to Wu Shun's words, what he wants to do is noodles, but this thing can't be made in a day, it takes a lot of time, and there are several places dedicated to drying.

"Could it be that Lang Jun wants to make any special pastries?" Wu Shun saw the eggs and oil next to him and asked a little curiously. It seems that these are only used for pastries, and they are usually not used for other foods.

"No, this time it's somen noodles, and I can't do it well in one day." Li Hao explained with a smile to Wu Shun that the process of making noodles is time-consuming and physically demanding. After the dough in your hand is reconciled, cover the insulated noodles, and only after one to two hours will you start the wire rod.

Li Hao is going to make a lot of noodles this time, and he is going to make a lot of portions and let the people here experience and taste them after they are ready. And when I did it, I called some people whose condition was under control to watch it, and told them about it while doing it.

When these people are fully healed, they will join in the process of making noodles, and these people will be the first workers to call it a day and make somen noodles. Lao Sun and Lin Xian Ling were also among them, they didn't know what the point of Li Hao doing this, they only looked at Li Hao with curiosity.

Nearly 70 catties of dough are kneaded to a moderate level of softness and hardness, which is a very physically demanding job. Fortunately, Li Hao practiced, Rao is so, and he was completely reconciled by sweating profusely. The others were watching Li Hao's various tosses on the side, curious about Li Hao's behavior.

The dough needs to rest for one to two hours, and then use a rolling pin to roll out the dough evenly. The dough is then pressed to a thickness of 3-4 cm before moving on to the next step, which is to cut the dough. It's different from cutting flour because there is a follow-up after cutting.

Flour the evenly rolled dough and cut the dough with a special tool. This is cut in a different way, but the dough is cut like a mosquito coil along the round cake-shaped dough and cut the dough into a thick strip of noodles.

After cutting the dough, there is the wire rod, and the wire rod is to pull the thick noodle out of the ball. When stretching the noodles, you should rub them so that the thick noodles gradually become thinner, but do not break the noodles.

"Lang Jun, is this going to be a glutton?" As more and more people came to watch, some people looked at Li Hao's behavior and guessed. And the shadow brought by the plague has slowly been diluted a lot during this period of time when there has been no death, and the eyes of the people here have more expectations and hopes.

"No, it's still early, this is a somen noodle, and it will take a while to take shape." Li Hao's attitude was the same as usual, he was gentle to everyone, and explained his behavior to them with a smile. He didn't say that he was looking for a new way out for these people.

After the first wire rod, let it sit for a while to allow the noodles to reach the right toughness. Then there is a second wire rod, and the second wire rod is brushed with a layer of peanut or sesame blended oil on the surface of each full layer, which can not only prevent sticking, but also increase the color of the surface.

After the second plate is finished, the noodles must be placed in a place with the right temperature to dry, and then the chopsticks are served. I also scored several times with chopsticks, and finally I made the noodles into long strips as thick as toothpicks.

The whole process is to ensure that all the noodles cannot be glued together, but also to ensure that the noodles cannot be broken. Otherwise, even if it fails, the noodles will taste much worse.

At this point, the noodles are officially finished, and the rest of the time is to dry them in the sun. Then use it to cook and eat, or to store it and cook it when you want to eat it.

When his somen was almost dry, Li Hao began to make various noodles with the somen he made. How many ways to make somen noodles? No one can say for sure, maybe there are a thousand ways for a thousand people, and there are different ways in the north and south.

And there is only one kind of main ingredient noodles, and that is somen noodles. However, because of the different ingredients, or different tastes, you can make a variety of flavors. Li Hao didn't get all the types he knew, so he made a longevity noodle for Wu Shun, because Wu Shun happened to be on his birthday at this time.

Then he made a whole dish of lo noodles and mixed sauce noodles, oil noodles and whistle noodles can also be used, but the real oil noodles and whistle noodles are made with handmade noodles, and using dried noodles is not the best choice.

But for all the patients in this concentration area, these are delicious. They never knew that the noodles could still be done and made so delicious, even though each person could only get a small bowl, but after eating it, it was hard to forget.

The rich fragrance that swept in the wind spread softly in the sunlight and the jumping dust. Like a fairy, it was active in everyone's hearts, driving away the coldness in their hearts because of the plague, and their hearts brightened up instantly.

The crispy and fatty meat in that bowl of noodles and the juicy and mellow soup. The elastic noodles weave through the aroma and after soaking up the broth, they are temptingly delicious, smooth and oily.

Take a bite and slide between your lips and teeth, blooming with the absolute taste of Allure. The flavor is also mixed with the freshness of green vegetables and the aroma of chopped green onions, which is really delicious and enjoyable. After eating, people can't help but want to have another bowl, but unfortunately the portion is only a little bit.

The days in this concentration area are also because of the arrival of Li Hao, because of the appearance of this kind of noodles, all the patients here have become unforgettable about the days here, and they are also full of hope for their future lives, no matter what, they finally survived.

"How's this somen noodle?" Li Hao is discussing this noodle matter with the county commander and the old grandson at the moment, as for the feelings of those people, the task reward he got from the system has already explained everything.

Thousands of people nodded yes, and the emergence of new food types is a big reward for the system. Let Li Hao reap a reward of points, and get back all the points he earned because of the plague some time ago.

"Good! Great stuff! This noodle is suitable for men, women and children, and it is easy to eat and can be stored for a long time. As long as this thing is launched in Datang, it will definitely be liked by many people. After listening to Li Hao's words, the three of them immediately praised without being stingy.

They have also eaten noodles made of dried noodles, and compared with the mainstream dumplings in Datang now, this thing is more beautiful and better to eat. With the right soup stock, as long as you have eaten it, it will be difficult to forget this thing, so there is no market for this thing.
