Henan's brine noodles and stewed noodles are difficult to distinguish between only the appearance and the production method. Viewed from the outside, both noodles are noodles with vegetables in the noodles, and there is no soup in the noodles. When eating, because there is no soup in the noodles, it is necessary to eat it with soup, and it seems that there is really no difference between the two. But people who have really eaten Henan brine noodles and stewed noodles will definitely have a fondness for the brine aroma of the brine noodles and the strong taste of the noodles.
Braised noodles are actually a simple version of the brine noodles, and I will introduce the braised noodles in passing in the introduction of the brine noodles. The production of brine noodles is much more complicated than braised noodles, so I have lived in Shandong for nearly 30 years and have not come across restaurants selling brine noodles. Whenever I want to eat this bite, I have to make it myself to satisfy my taste buds. After years of production verification, I have mastered the unique skills and experience of making brine noodles.
Let me introduce the preparation method of halogen noodles:
First, the preparation of ingredients.
1: Grow a pound of beans, wash and cut into sections for later.
2, thin noodles 800 grams, the noodles shake apart, the more chaotic the better.
3: Slice or shred pork belly, and then put together with chopped green onion and ginger and large ingredients for later.
4, soy sauce, oil consumption, taste very fresh spare.
2. Steamed noodles.
Place the noodles that have been shaken beforehand in a steamer, of course, the more messy the noodles, the better, to avoid sticking to the noodles. The noodles are steamed for 20 minutes after the pot is boiled, during which time the marinade of the noodles can be made. (The noodles bought are machine-pressed ready-made noodles, all are relatively dry, and basically will not stick after shaking)
Third, make the vegetable brine of the brine noodles.
1: Heat the oil in a hot pan, add the green onion and ginger star anise to fry the aroma, add the slices of meat and stir-fry to change color.
2: Add soy sauce, soy sauce and oil consumption and stir-fry to make the meat slices fully flavorful.
3: Add the beans and stir-fry evenly, add 500 ml of water, salt and chicken essence, and open for 5 minutes. (Dishes should not be cooked for too long, because they will be steamed later)
Fourth, steamed brine noodles.
At this moment, the time for steaming noodles for 20 minutes has arrived, first take the noodles out of the steamer, shake the sticky noodles again, and then put the steamed noodles into the vegetable marinade and stir well, so that each noodle is fully absorbed into the vegetable marinade. Then put the mixed noodles in the steamer and steam for 15 minutes.
The steamed brine has a beautiful face, put on a plate of brine noodles, eat a bite of strength, lips and teeth brine fragrant, absolutely delicious hometown!
It's really:
Thin strips of halogen root roots,
Dreams haunt the taste of home.
Salivating is hard to suppress self-contemplation,
Delicious enough to make me proud.

Fifth, my reminder.
1, the amount of marinade of the dish determines the softness and hardness of the noodles, if you want to eat soft, you can let the noodles absorb more marinade.
2, steamed noodle side dishes can also choose celery, soybean sprouts, etc., the number of dishes can be added arbitrarily. Because soybean sprouts are resistant to cooking and steaming, most of them are more candidates.
3, the amount of soy sauce determines the color of the noodles, can be added according to personal preferences.
Preparation of stewed noodles.
1. Omit the (2) step in the production of brine noodles, and start directly from step (3).
2: Put out most of the soup in the prepared vegetable marinade, let the beans reveal the marinade, and then put the scattered raw noodles on the dish, cover the pot and start simmering the noodles. After a while, pour the marinade poured out in advance on the noodles, but do not bury the noodles, otherwise the noodles will be boiled.
3, noodle stewing process to prevent the paste pot, add soup and pay attention to the view is the key. Simmer the noodles for about 20 minutes, then mix the noodles with the vegetables and eat them.
