In order to test whether the noodles were of the right thickness, Jiang Yu boiled and soaked a bowl each, and the finished products were both good.
The sauce packet has a rich sauce flavor and is full of meaty aroma; the powder packet is made by grinding seaweed, dried shrimp, etc. into powder, and mixing in spices to enhance the freshness. The finished product tastes similar to modern instant noodles, and even because of the sufficient ingredients, it has a richer meaty aroma.
The soup made from the sauce packet is clearer than the broth, but thanks to the powder packet, the flavor is still there, and the egg kneaded into the instant noodles complements the rich flavor. This seemingly simple bowl of noodles is actually quite ingenious.
After Jiang Yu took a bite of each side, he thought it tasted good, so he sprinkled some chopped green onions on it, blanched some vegetables and put them in, and then fried an egg on top according to Wen Yanqing's request.
Since the two little ones were there, Jiang Yu also gave them two small bowls to try.
The three of them stood in a row, unable to wait to taste the food before it was served on the table.
The chopsticks jumped and slurped the food into their mouths in unison.
The surface of the fried eggs is golden in color, and the noodles are chewier than regular ramen. After being fried, the fragrance of the eggs is locked in by the high temperature, making them taste more fresh, fragrant and mellow.
It is called instant noodles, but it is more like ramen, soft and chewy. Even if it is soaked, it still retains that unique toughness and smoothness.
The smooth ramen is wrapped in the clear and fragrant soup. The cooking time is just right, which allows the aroma of the sauce to be integrated into the ramen, but does not allow the ramen to absorb too much soup and become soft and sticky, losing its original chewy and tender texture.
As you chew the noodles slowly, the rich aroma of egg and the light aroma of oil linger on your tongue. Compared to ordinary noodles, this dish has a unique flavor.
After eating the soft and chewy noodles, tilt your head back and drink the soup.
The clear noodle soup mainly highlights the aroma of sauce and braised meat. The minced meat is taken with the soup. If you taste it carefully, you can also taste the aroma of noodles and eggs scattered in the soup. It is so delicious without the need for broth as the base.
Not only hungry travelers on the go, but even those stuck at home can't resist this bowl of ramen. It's quick and easy to make, fresh and delicious, and warms you right in the mouth, leaving a lingering aroma that'll leave you wanting more.
After finishing the noodles, the three of them stood there, waiting eagerly for Jiang Yu to fry the noodles again.
Jiang Yu found it very funny.
So Wen Yanqing was asked to call other people to come and help.
In the evening, everyone gave rave reviews for the freshly made rice sauce and instant noodles.
As the name suggests, rice sauce is used for mixing with rice, but it is also great to use it with instant noodles without the sauce packet.
Jiang Yu likes to eat instant noodles with spicy meat sauce, and so do Grandpa Wen and the others.
As for children, they like to eat it with mayonnaise.
The main feature of mayonnaise is its freshness. When mixed with hot instant noodles just out of the pot, the rich aroma of egg yolk immediately hits you, mixed with a rich and mellow aroma, which is very tempting.
The instant noodles are coated in a delicate layer of mayonnaise, sometimes light and sometimes dark. The rich aroma of egg yolk immediately fills your lips and cheeks. Because they're simply used to mix with plain noodles, the rich aroma is unadulterated. Soft and silky, with occasional crunchy bits of egg yolk, the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes, making you reluctant to swallow.
After wolfing down his meal, Brother Wen looked at Jiang Yu and said, "Sister-in-law, the instant noodles and rice sauce you made are so delicious. Um, can I order some more from you, and then you can ask someone to help make it for me?"
After returning, their team was going to participate in a large-scale exercise. He wanted to use delicious food to tempt those little bastards to try their best to win, so that he could accumulate more merits and be transferred back to Beijing earlier.
In the few days since he came back, he found that his wife and two little ones were different from before, and had become cheerful and lively.
The two little guys found some friends to play with them. Every day they either had a great time playing with them or pestered Jiang Yu to make delicious food. They were so happy.
However, since they were leaving tomorrow, the little ones were a bit upset. So, as a father, he would definitely try his best to get transferred back as soon as possible.
Jiang Yu stopped slurping the noodles, swallowed the food in his mouth, and said, "No problem, I just don't know how much you want, big brother. I'll make it and mail it to you when the time comes."
Brother Wen thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's a bit much. When you're done, check how much it is and I'll transfer it to you."
Jiang Yu naturally would not refuse the business that came to his door.
This allowed her to discover a new way to make money.
The next day was the day when Leader Xiao and his two nephews and their families would leave. Jiang Yu got up early and prepared to make them some hot and solid breakfast to take to the car.
When she came to the kitchen, Mother Wen was already busy in the kitchen.
Mother Wen turned around when she heard the noise and said, "Hey, Xiaoyu, why did you get up so early today? Are you hungry? Mom will make you something to eat."
Jiang Yu shook her head. "No, aren't the two little guys leaving today? So I thought of making something to eat for them."
"Kid, you always think about them in everything. No wonder Zhao and the others like you so much."
"What are you going to do? Mom will help you."
When it comes to breakfast, porridge is definitely not suitable when catching a train. In addition to porridge and steamed buns, Jiang Yu thinks of breakfast in Wuhan, known as the "breakfast capital", such as three-fresh bean curd, hot dry noodles, fried pancakes wrapped in steamed buns, etc.
Fried dough sticks wrapped in siomai are a wonderful combination. The fried dough sticks are crispy and fragrant, while the siomai inside are soft, glutinous, and sweet, leaving you with a satisfying feeling. One fried dough stick can hold four siomai, making it a high-calorie, generously packed breakfast option. Most importantly, it's a great way to keep you full, making it a great choice for those traveling far away.
After frying the meat and diced mushrooms until fragrant and the oil comes out, add a little fermented black bean oil to enhance the flavor, mix it with the glutinous rice flour, pour in the rich lard that has been boiled into a translucent and semi-milky white color, and finally sprinkle in pepper and chopped green onions, and the filling for the steamed buns is ready.
The wrapper for the siomai is rolled very thin, and a large spoonful of stuffing is put into it. It is pinched tightly from the end, and it looks like a small bundle, round and plump, with the opening like a blooming flower.
Then take out the dough that was left over from making noodles yesterday, roll it into round shapes as big as a bowl, heat oil in a pan, and when the oil temperature is right, put the dough in.
Along with the crackling sound, oil flowers appeared around the pancake, which swayed in the oil as if inflated, gradually bulging and expanding, and finally turned into a very puffy and round golden pancake.
Wen Yanqing came in at this time. He smelled the aroma of oil and asked in confusion, "Mom, is this breakfast? It's not good to eat something so oily so early in the morning."
Mother Wen glared at him: "It's good enough to have something to eat, and you're still picky!"
