Chapter 43 Elm Skin Noodles, the Legendary Kitchen Utensils
Chicken soup?
Thirteen incense?
Meat foam?
Diesel?
At that time, the poor people who lived in the mountains, where did they have these things!
The reason why Zhou You was kept in the dark was also because he was in the game, and he was a chef, and he was fooled by the old man's sentence of the most fragrant noodles he had eaten in 70 years!
You must know that when people are hungry, let alone a bowl of delicious delicacies, it is a white-flour steamed bun, which can be regarded as delicious in the world.
Therefore, noodles made from white noodles, or noodles made from soba noodles, are fundamentally wrong.
Old Man Meng just held the noodles like that, and the tears fell down and fell into the soup.
And then......
Holding chopsticks, one bite at a time, no, it was a big bite to eat.
Seeing this, the others also quieted their voices.
Everyone can see that this bowl of noodles is really restored to the taste of the old man's bowl of noodles 70 years ago.
Especially......
The old man actually cried!
This man, who doesn't know how many battlefield wounds he has suffered, actually cried at this moment because of a bowl of noodles!
The Meng family present could only be treated in silence.
In the hall, there was only the sound of Old Man Meng sucking and eating noodles, and the noodles were indeed light gray or light brown.
Finally, the bowl of noodles was finished, and even the soup was drunk.
The old man put down the dishes and chopsticks, only his eyes were still slightly red, he breathed a long sigh of relief, looked at Zhou You, with gratitude, obviously he understood!
Others looked at Zhou You with doubt.
Zhou You coughed dryly and said, "First of all, it's a matter of flour!" ”
Zhou You glanced at Old Man Meng and said, "This is elm skin noodles!" ”
Elm bark noodles?
As soon as these words came out, many people present looked puzzled, obviously they had never heard of the so-called elm bark noodles at all!
But the granddaughter-in-law Huo Yun suddenly said: "Elm skin noodles? I think I've heard of this and eaten it once! ”
Zhou You smiled and said, "It is true that some young people have eaten it, but ...... This elm skin noodles have actually been eaten by two extreme people! ”
"Either the rich change their tastes, or ...... It's just that the poor have nothing to eat! ”
"The truth is the same as the current wowotou!"
People who have never eaten hunger and bitterness are used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, and they can't appreciate how precious white noodles are.
But......
It's not the same with those who have been hungry.
Old man Meng took over the conversation: "When I was a child, I couldn't see white flour and rice at all, and during the Chinese New Year, I could have a few catties of white flour, and what I usually eat is potatoes, cornmeal, bean noodles, elm noodles and the like!" ”
"Later, when life was better, these things were gone, and I basically didn't want to eat them anymore!"
"And this bowl of noodles ...... It should be made of elm bark noodles, probably too old, so my memory is incomplete! ”
The old man was holding the bowl, his eyes were a little dazed, and he didn't know what he remembered.
"The so-called elm bark noodles are actually the bark of the elm tree, and now people eat them, generally to change the taste, or to feel the difficulty of the older generation, so now the elm bark noodles are sold higher than the white noodles!"
"But back then, this thing was completely a helpless move for everyone to be hungry!"
Eating the bark of the tree, many people think it is incredible, that is because it is not the dry bark that is exposed outside, but the dry bark on the outside of the elm tree is peeled off, and you will find that there is a film inside, take off the film, dry it and grind it into powder, and it becomes elm bark noodles!
"This bowl of noodles is elm skin noodles, not just elm skin noodles, which are mixed with bean noodles, buckwheat, wheat bran, ......"
"In fact, it's all leftovers, things that the poor eat!"
Just as Zhou You was telling, a young man of three generations of the Meng family also quietly took the previous bowl of noodles, and then tasted it, his face suddenly changed, and he spit out the noodles directly: "Bah, this is ...... It's so unpalatable! ”
The subconscious move immediately provoked the anger of others.
By now, everyone has actually understood what this so-called most fragrant bowl of noodles means.
It was just a bowl of noodles that the old man escaped death and filled his stomach hungry!
Its taste is not as good as that of a small street shop, as well as the handmade noodles of my mother at home, and even more incomparable to the few bowls of noodles made before the trip.
But......
That bowl of noodles is indeed the most fragrant bowl for Mr. Meng!
The grandson was disgusted when he ate noodles, and even vomited, but Old Man Meng didn't blame, but his eyes were even more sloppy, and he said quietly: "Back then...... If it weren't for me, Miss Li and Aunt Liu...... I won't die! ”
As he spoke, he burst into tears.
Zhou You was silent, it seems that something should have happened back then, otherwise, he wouldn't have remembered it for so long.
said that he remembered a bowl of noodles, but in fact, it was most likely to remember the girl of the same age who wore a flower jacket, as well as Aunt Liu!
Especially listening to the meaning of these words, these two people are still dead because of him!
[Congratulations to players for completing a random task, reward: Legendary Kitchenware: Eternal Spirit Knife!] 】
it!
What's that?
Legendary kitchenware?
Let's go astray!
This thing looks like it's from some anime?
But......
Zhou You has long wanted to have his own knife, but he hasn't built it, and now it's okay, the system gives it away, and it's also the legendary kitchenware!
I just don't know if this knife will have any special abilities!
The reward appeared, which proved that the matter had been done, and the old man howled and cried, and the more he cried, the more sad he became, and it was inconvenient for Zhou You to be present, so he left quietly.
"Brother Zhou, thank you so much this time!"
"And...... I'm really convinced of you this time! ”
Zhao Chengjun held Zhou You's hand and didn't let go for a long time, fortunately he had a wife and children, otherwise Zhou You thought that this guy had some special habits, but he quickly let go.
Seeing Zhang Yu on the side, Zhou You pointed out: "Cooking is warm and humane!" ”
Zhang Yu was stunned and fell into deep thought!
It was dark, and Zhou You had to rush back, so he took Zhao Chengjun to the parking lot, pointed to a few cars and said, "These cars will be handed over to you, and the documents are also in the car!" ”
Luxury cars are just decorations, so Zhou You is ready to let these cars move, find a car rental company to hang them out, and it just so happens that Zhao Chengjun has a way here.
And Zhao Chengjun was already staying where he was, staring at those cars!
Ferrari 488? Lamborghini bulls? McLaren 720? Audi R8?
it!
He had no problem lobblingly saying that he wanted to rent a car before, but who would have thought that it would be a car of this level.
And......
Why so many?
"Zhou ...... Brother Zhou, these are your cars? ”
Seeing Zhou You nodding, Zhao Chengjun gasped and secretly wiped the sweat on his forehead, fortunately he didn't say anything about giving half of the Chuanhai Restaurant, otherwise it would be a shame.
"Brother Zhou, don't worry, I will help you do these cars clearly, if you have any needs in the future, just mention them!"
