How to do Huimian Noodles in Henan?

As a native of Henan, I naturally have a soft spot for mutton Huimian Noodles.

Let's share with friends the practice of Huimian Noodles, a Henan mutton.

Prepare ingredients: 500 grams of high-gluten flour, 500 grams of mutton, kelp, bean curd skin, quail eggs, mushrooms, coriander, garlic sprouts, sesame sauce.

First, add10g salt and 240g warm water to the flour, stir with chopsticks, stir into a big wad, knead it into a smooth dough by hand, and cover it with plastic wrap for half an hour. After half an hour, take out the dough and knead it again until the surface is smooth, knead it into long strips, divide it into batter with equal size, flatten it with your hands and oil it, and roll it into beef tongue. Grease the middle of the rectangular plate, put it into the dough embryo, brush the dough embryo again to prevent air drying, roll it out in turn, and finally cover it with plastic wrap for two hours.

Then start to stew the meat, cut the washed mutton into large pieces, blanch it with cold water, skim off the floating foam, wash the mutton with warm water, put it in a pot, add cooking wine, fennel, pepper, fragrant leaves and cinnamon in turn, simmer for one hour, poke the meat gently with chopsticks, then turn off the fire (no need to add salt in the whole process, in order to keep the original flavor of the mutton soup), cool and cut it into pieces.

Then prepare the side dishes. Wash quail eggs and cook in cold water for three minutes. Take it out and let it cool and peel (don't cook it for too long, it tastes bad). Shredded tofu skin, shredded kelp, sliced mushrooms, chopped coriander and garlic sprouts.

Now that the dough embryo is awake, prepare a pot of water to boil, take out a dough embryo, slowly extend your hands to both ends and swing up and down to shoulder width. When the dough embryo is thrown three fingers wide, it will be torn from the middle and cooked in a pot. Take a large wide-mouthed bowl, add mutton soup, salt, chicken essence and pepper to taste, add cooked dough embryo, and then add shredded tofu, kelp and quail eggs in turn.

At this time, a bowl of white soup, fragrant meat, vegetables and gluten is ready. It looks good, nutritious and delicious. Like friends follow the steps. Thank you!

Sit still and always think about yourself. Whenever we encounter difficulties, we should not complain about the injustice of fate or the cruelty of this society, but should reflect on our actions, why we have fallen to this point, and what we have done wrong will lead to such a bad result. Because people who don't know how to reflect will not make progress. Looking back more than ten years ago, I gave up my studies early and went to work in the most famous Huimian Noodles store in Zhengzhou. At that time, although I was young, I was honest and worked as a handyman in the kitchen. Because it is a hotel, there are several handymen in the kitchen, and the division of labor is clear. There are special noodle makers, special vegetable cutters and special vegetable washers. In these unskilled jobs, let me. But it's only been two years, perhaps because of the growth of age or the demand for money, which makes me feel that it is difficult to get rich if I keep doing a job that everyone can do without any technical content. At that time, chefs were the most authoritative and paid in the kitchen, because they could cook and stir-fry. So I decided to talk to my boss. I remember it was after work at night. I got up the courage to go to my boss and said I wanted to learn to cook. Maybe because I'm young? Or do you think I don't have that talent? I don't know. But I just don't agree. At that time, although I was petite and honest, I still had a little temper. If you don't let me learn, I'll resign. I thought I would find another hotel to study. Later, maybe the boss saw my determination, or maybe the store was short of staff, so he left me behind, because one of his relatives' children chose other industries because they didn't like this life. Just let me work there for a while, and then let me learn to cook until the right person comes. I heard that the boss agreed to let me learn to cook, and I readily agreed. But I didn't know all this, which really let me know the soul of the wise side. The boss asked me to weigh all kinds of spices and seasonings in a room alone. Then break it into powder and mix it together according to the proportion taught by the boss. Because I didn't know what those spices were, I later learned that their Huimian Noodles was so delicious and their business was so hot. It all depends on the perfect combination of these seasonings and proportions. So in my spare time, I showed these spices to the chefs again and again and asked them to teach me the names of these spices. So, I wrote down the names and proportions of all the spices without others knowing. So I got the signature staple food formula of this Hui noodle shop. So I was glad that I was lucky and studied harder from the chef. I feel that I have this recipe and I can open a noodle shop in the future. But fate makes people. I have been learning to cook in this industry for more than ten years. I thought I had a famous Huimian Noodles recipe in Zhengzhou and worked as a chef for several years. I will fry some home-cooked dishes in my hand. I decided to do a big job and not waste my life. That's it. Do it. Find a shop, decorate it and start business. It will be done in a month. In order to open the store as soon as possible, the store location is not good and the business is not ideal. Fortunately, our Huimian Noodles tastes good, and many customers praise it, which also brings me great confidence. Gradually accumulate repeat customers, and then the old customers will drive new customers. Seeing that business was about to improve, COVID-19 saw a bright future. I was caught off guard when I came. I thought business would improve and I could earn money back. As a result, I can't open a store now. Because of the COVID-19 epidemic, I had to give up, completely give up. I have been playing rice noodles for 20 years, and I don't want to talk about it any more. Because of this epidemic, I have thought about life. What do people live for? Just to make money? No matter how much money you earn, you just eat, dress and sleep. No matter how much money you earn, you will have more troubles. No, people are alive. There should be more than that. We should have other things to do. Yes, the emancipation of the mind. Accumulate the wealth of the soul How to get rid of it? What about accumulating spiritual wealth? Maybe it's the Buddha's saying to do more good deeds, help others and do things that are beneficial to others. Thought of here, it suddenly occurred to me that since I have decided not to do catering, what about my emblem formula and soup-making technology? Will it rot in my hands? Tell all this to the people who open the Hui noodle shop, will they believe it? Experience tells me that they only trust franchisees and people with physical stores. Will not believe what a man's army says. But reality tells me that someone must need these. There must be someone who wants to get a good recipe for rice noodles, but has no money to join, but has always dreamed of opening a rice noodle shop. But I asked myself, will these people believe me? I'm not sure, so how can I help them? I can't help it I can only wait for people in need to teach them emblem technology for free. Suiyuan!
