Fan cold noodles PK traditional cold noodles, who can dominate the summer table? A gorgeous transformation of 200 grams of noodles
In this hot summer, do you always feel that your appetite is "baked" by the hot weather? Don't worry, today I'm going to bring you a magical dish that can save your taste buds - fan cold noodles! When the smooth noodles are paired with the fragrant and delicious sauce, the moment they dance on the tip of the tongue, it is like a cool breeze blowing, making your hot heart instantly calm.
Fan noodles have an interesting history! It is said that in the past, when there was no air conditioning, people came up with various ways to eat cool pasta in order to eat a bite of it. Some people have found that cooling freshly cooked noodles with a fan can cool the noodles quickly while maintaining the toughness and texture of the noodles. This ingenious approach has spread and has become a popular summer food choice. Moreover, in some old alleys, you can still hear the stories of the older generation who had a cool face with a fan when they were young.
The reason why cool noodles are so popular in the summer is not just because they are cool. From a nutritional point of view, noodles are rich in carbohydrates, which provide energy to our body. The vegetables and sauces are supplemented with vitamins, minerals, and proteins.
In addition, when making fan cold noodles, the choice of noodles is also very particular. Generally speaking, using alkaline water will make the taste smoother and more chewy. At the same time, the heat and time of cooking noodles are also crucial, as noodles tend to be soft and rotten if they are cooked for too long, and if they are not cooked for too long, they will become parched.
Fan cold noodles, as the name suggests, are the use of the wind power of the fan to quickly cool down the cooked noodles, so as to achieve a cool, firm taste. With its unique way of preparation and refreshing taste, this dish has become a regular on the summer table.
