The key to making a bowl of delicious soup noodles lies in the preparation of soup ingredients and the choice of rice noodles. To make soup, you need to use fresh pig's head slaughtered in the morning as the bottom of the pot, add a little pepper, salt, monosodium glutamate, and simmer for 2 to 3 hours, so that the soup is both sweet and delicious, and has a faint pepper flavor, which is delicious and appetizing. The selection of rice noodles is also very important, it is best to make them by hand, and its thickness and size are also more exquisite, the powder is not selected well, eat it, either the taste is very bad, or it is too hard, there is no tender feeling, which directly affects the quality of the soup powder. Then there are the ingredients, which include lean pork, pork offal, fried shrimp and rice crisps and chives. Lean pork, large intestines, powder sausages and pork loins are also purchased from the market early in the morning, and local farm pigs are needed. Cut the lean pork into thin slices, cut the pig offal into small pieces, and cook it with the pork head soup that was previously boiled and set aside. Fried shrimp puff pastry is a major feature of Hou'an powder, which is not found in other powder soup ingredients. The processing method of shrimp puff pastry is to chop up the fresh Houhai shrimp, dip the appropriate amount of batter, put it in the oil pan, fry it, crispy and crispy, and have the flavor of shrimp. After the above ingredients are prepared, when eating, the cold rice noodles are drained in the boiling hot clear soup, poured into the bowl, poured into the boiled boiling hot pork head soup, the previously prepared lean pork, large intestine, powder intestines and pork loin are added to the bowl, and then add green onions and fried shrimp and rice crisp, a bowl of fragrant Wanning Hou'an powder soup is completed.
[Food Culture]
Hou'an powder soup comes from Hou'an, a coastal town in Wanning City, and is one of the Wanning delicacies that have emerged in recent years. It is a household name in Hainan, and it is a favorite breakfast food of people, and it is also enjoyed as a meal. It is said that the first bowl of Hou'an powder soup came from the Bright Powder Soup Shop located in the Farmers' Market of Hou'an Town, Wanning. At that time, a villager, the grandfather of the current boss, found that the fishermen who went out to sea to fish could not eat a hot breakfast when they arrived ashore in the cold morning. Therefore, the hot soup is cooked at home, and when the fishermen come ashore, they use some fresh small fish, shrimp, and rice noodles that the local residents love to eat, put them into the soup, cook for a while, and then take them out and eat, which is fast and warm. For a long time, such a powder soup has been welcomed by more and more people, and the powder soup has gradually entered the residential area from the seaside. However, the original selection of fresh seafood has been changed to pork, which is often eaten by residents.
Now, where there are Wanning people, there are Wanning powder soup and Hou'an powder soup, which have long been well-known in Hainan. In any city or county in Hainan, you can find Hou'an powder soup shop. Hou'an powder soup has long become synonymous with morning in the hearts of the people of Hainan.
