Don't look at the four words of oil and spicy seeds sound very simple, but the finished product that everyone praises is not easy, the shape, variety, and oil temperature, base material of the pepper... Any one link that is not right will affect the overall taste. If you really pay attention to it, there are many doorways inside, first of all, the spicy noodles are the first, the best spicy seeds are selected, the slender peppers are preferred, called the line spicy, the body is slender, the fat flesh is thick, according to the words of the township party: oil and gas are large, spicy and fragrant, dried into dried peppers, and then choose its deep red and translucent. Spicy natives never buy ready-made chili noodles, afraid that in order to disguise the spicy taste, add alkali noodles to the inside, eat it with a burning feeling, are to buy good dried peppers, let the seller use the foot mill to grind the noodles on the spot, but also can not be crushed too fine, eat no fragrance, a taste of dead spicy. The ingredients are also sufficient, star anise peppercorns, cinnamon pepper, fennel, meat cloves, poppy husks (this... Not to encourage drug use ha), a small amount can be tasted, crushed and mixed with chili noodles, plus salt and sesame seeds, mix well. Then start to heat the oil, you must use vegetable oil, the salad can not stimulate the aroma. Oil temperature is also the key, spicy must be the oil temperature mastered properly, burned over, too hot too hot, when spilled out will be scorched black, burned not enough, too cold too ice, poured out when half raw, the former becomes flavored, the latter tasteless, are things that cannot be eaten into the mouth. Therefore, after the oil smokes, cool down slightly, and when the smoke is gone, it can be spilled. The oil should be poured more, at least it must be able to drown the spicy noodles, otherwise the spicy noodles will not be fragrant for a while. Then the most important step came, open your eyes spicy, this is the practice handed down from the Guandong Province, when the spicy is still hot, order a few drops of balsamic vinegar to go in, the vinegar is cold, the oil is hot, the cool and hot meet, you hear a "bang", a circle of foam in the dish, the combination of vinegar and oil spicy flavor comes to the face, making people move.
