Sliced meat with bacon sauce

  When the accompanying friend turned back from the Tang Paradise to the vicinity of the Bell Tower, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Hungry, we wandered down the streets in search of shops where we could feast. When hesitating to wait and see, a fragrance went straight into the nostrils, stirring the people's water, and they could not take a step at the moment, looking up, the sign of "Old Xi'an Bacon Meat Noodles" hung on the lintel of the door a few feet away.

  "Go, go in and taste!" I dragged my friend into the shop and sat down. The hostess greeted her warmly and poured tea. As soon as the voice of "two bowls of bacon meat and noodles" fell, there was a burst of "crackling" noise from near and far, which was really exciting to listen to, and I really wanted to see it. After learning that dining was also available upstairs, we followed the sound along the stairs to the second floor.

  This is a compact space connected to the dining area in the operation room, sitting at a square table on a wooden bench, and inside the window is a huge old black pot, steaming and steaming. Under the large sheet of plastic wrap in the square plate, there are neatly stacked dough. To eat pure and authentic noodles, the choice of the best flour to say, the noodles are more solid work, hard is not good, soft is not good, you must pinch the measure between the millimeters. Among them, the rules of the noodles, the technology of kneading the noodles, the time of waking up the noodles, which link can not go wrong, otherwise the noodles made are either easy to break and fragile, or hard and difficult to cook, even if the best bacon meat to make it a foil, it is difficult to win the favor of diners.

  The chef is struggling to shake the face on a polished stainless steel board. The two-finger-wide strap was extremely elastic, jumping and swinging back and forth, flexible and smooth, and between the hands of the magician-like chef, it was easily pulled apart, shaken off, and became thin and bright in an instant. Grab a handful of washed greens, pluck them into two pieces, and sprinkle them into the pot. The long straps wrapped around the wrists were quickly pulled into a piece of faceplate the size of a mahjong card, thrown sharply, and flew into the boiling water one by one.

  After this scene scene, after careful consideration, I realized that the magic of "pulling the dough piece" is all on this one "pinching" word. The waiter stretched out the fence, swirled along the bottom of the pot and stirred for a week, and at once fished out all the green vegetable leaves and white flower noodles, put them into a bowl, no other condiments, just poured a large spoonful of bacon meat, you can enjoy.

  The chef enthusiastically introduced to us: "We are decades old restaurant, the taste is very beautiful, all with a pot of rotten meat!" "The brine pieces of bacon in the vat are still steaming, and it is said that this is where the soul connotation of a bowl of noodles lies, and it is also the whole nutrition of a bowl of noodles."

  After a few stirrings, I couldn't wait to pull it in my mouth. Hot, smooth, fragrant, the noodle slices are smooth and smooth and the rich and delicious meat of the bacon, and the stewed meat is lean but not chai, fat and not greasy, which is really a unique match. The clever mix of vegan and meat stimulates an unexpected taste enjoyment. Simple white noodles, unchanged meat and soup, and a few common greens have achieved a well-known golden signboard, and also subverted the traditional concept that Lao Shaan can't eat noodles without spicy, and what makes me even happier is that without sour and spicy noodles, you can eat so well and have endless aftertaste!

  As the quick-talking waiter explained to me: "What you want is this pure flavor, put the spicy seeds and put vinegar in it, add the stir-fried vegetables and stew, and the aroma of the bacon meat is all covered up, so isn't it a featureless bowl of dry noodles?" ”

  A bowl of noodles can always be done to the extreme by connoisseurs, and can also be tasted to the extreme by customers. Just like the bacon meat in this xi'an city, it seems that its appearance is not proud, but it is actually quite exquisite, eat once, remember a lifetime.
