<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > played the pot helmet for 36 years, and the middle-aged uncle finally won a happy life! </h1>
Back in the winter of 1984, a young man invited from Jianyang to a state-run grain store in Chengdu had his first job as a pot helmet.
In the bustling metropolis at that time, this young man surnamed Qiu was always full of enthusiasm and hard work for work and life, and the pot helmets at that time were very cheap, a dime, and had to be exchanged for food stamps. Later, the state gradually lifted the restrictions on the purchase of food stamps, and the people were finally free to buy and sell food, and it was at that time that Xiao Qiu found a better way to make a living...
Now, exactly 36 years have passed, and the young guy who was full of spirit has become a "greasy" uncle. The small pot helmet has also been transformed into Chengdu's "net red pot helmet"! Of course, all this is not easy to come by, and when mentioning the arduous process involved, the uncle always reveals a feeling of relief in his words.
Why only cash?
The uncle smiled very generously and explained: "Alas, we are old, we can't play WeChat, I can't understand it!" ”
In the process of communicating with the uncle, we can really feel the warmth and friendliness of the uncle. As a traditional craftsman, the uncle is low-key and humble, his face is always full of smiles, but the work in his hands does not stop for a moment.
What surprised us was that when we asked about the business status of the uncle, the uncle rarely had a confident expression on his face, smiled and said: "In the past, when the business was good, there were only one or two hundred a day, and now it is a net red, basically six or seven hundred every day!" ”
Just when we were surprised, the uncle said something that made us envious, and in the past few decades, he bought three apartments in Chengdu! Well, I suddenly felt that the uncle had become more kind!
Uncle's "net red pot helmet" is actually the most traditional old pot helmet method, no cold powder, there is no side dish, is the most "pure" pot helmet!
In this simple and simple environment, the uncle uses the simplest tools every day, the old noodles pure handmade way, to carry out the noodles, kneading the noodles, waking the noodles, beating the noodles, etc., just between the hands and feet, the uncle's body seems to emit light, which is the most simple light of the working people!
The foundation of the round pot helmet has been prepared, first placed on the iron plate to be fixed, and when the pot helmet becomes "hard", it is transferred to the oven.
In the uncle of this to buy pot helmet customers, many are many years of repeat customers, everyone will invariably line up, some new customers do not know that the uncle only accepts cash, so there will often be a happy scene of everyone exchanging change with each other.
I don't know where to start, the oven of the roast pot helmet has been changed from a traditional charcoal stove to an electric oven, perhaps for the sake of environmental hygiene or safety.
Oh, here is a warm reminder to everyone, buy pot helmets in the uncle, do not estimate the time by the number of queues, because some customers will buy dozens of pot helmets at once! The freshly baked pot helmet will really make you hungry!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > traditional handmade method, authentic old Chengdu flavor! </h1>
There are several flavors of pot helmets, brown sugar pot helmets, white noodle pot helmets, pretzel pot helmets, etc., brown sugar and pretzel salt are highly recommended here!
Some young customers come to buy for the first time, and the uncle will always ask very intimately: "Mixed sugar pot helmet with alkali flavor, are you used to eating?" ”
However, for the old Chengdu people, the real authentic sugar mixing pot helmet, eating is the alkali taste!
The uncle installed the pot helmet for us, and did not forget to tell us: "Eat the pot helmet must be hot, but be careful of brown sugar to burn your mouth!" ”
Maybe I was too anxious, as soon as the brown sugar pot helmet was bitten open, the brown sugar juice "burst" out, it was really hot, but it was really super delicious!
The brown sugar pot helmet that has just come out of the oven, it is recommended that you directly break it open to eat, one is to let the pot helmet cool down quickly, and the other is to appreciate the "scenery" inside the pot helmet more intuitively: red and bright brown sugar, sweet and rich, a burst of sweet aroma comes to the face, and every bite seems to tell you a sweet "story"!
A small pot helmet, the uncle has been doing it for 36 years, and now he has three properties in Chengdu, which can be said to be on the "peak of life". But the uncle is very modest to say that every day can play pot helmets at the door of this community, see so many familiar old customers, there will always be a sense of satisfaction and achievement in the heart, although it has reached the retirement age, but the uncle still loves this traditional craft.
Until we left, the uncle said slightly sadly, if you really can't do it one day, I hope that someone can pass on this traditional craft!
Chengdu's food is thousands, but the traditional authentic craftsmanship is a handful, I hope that the uncle is healthy, so that more people can taste the most traditional and authentic old pot helmet!
Pay attention to our @ Maoqi eat, more Chengdu authentic food to share!
