Are the noodles sold by rural merchants for four or five yuan a pound pure potato noodles? Do not eat glued vermicelli

Vermicelli is a home-cooked dish for rural people, especially in autumn in the countryside can often hear: "Sell vermicelli!" Sell ~~~ pure potato noodles..." And sell very cheaply, more than 4-5 yuan a catty.

So can the 4-5 yuan a pound of vermicelli sold by traders be pure potato noodles?

An old "powdermaker" with more than forty years of experience in leaking powder said the truth: "The powder leaked before the emergence of cornstarch is pure potato noodles, since the emergence of corn starch, the noodles more or less contain corn starch, but the proportion is different!"

Careful analysis can lead to the desired conclusion, some fans in the market sell 5 yuan a pound, and the cost of a pound of starch, even if not counting labor costs, is close to 6 yuan a pound. A pound of starch can only produce eight or two vermicelli. Coupled with some labor costs, the price of a pound of pure potato noodles is about 7-8 yuan.

The old "powder maker" later said a sentence that is intriguing: "If it is only potato starch mixed with corn starch, it is nothing, there is no harm to the human body, but the taste is a little almost." Some bosses also require the appropriate use of some glue to improve the flexibility of the vermicelli. "This may be the inside story of today's vermicelli.

Vermicelli mixed with glue, it is best not to eat.

So how should we distinguish between them? In fact, ungurotheated potato noodles are generally easy to cook, while glued vermicelli is particularly difficult to cook and chewy. If you burn, glue made of vermicelli, it will have an unpleasant smell.
