I was born in a small county in Hebei, about 100 kilometers away from International Village.
Noodle dish, also called "boiled dish" and "big pot dish", is an indispensable dish in our hometown during New Years and funerals. The main ingredients are pork and noodles, supplemented by cabbage, potatoes, and meatballs. Wait. In view of the fact that our family’s genealogy says that my ancestors moved from Dahuashu in Hongdong, Shanxi to Hebei in the Ming Dynasty, I feel more and more that it has a relationship with the stewed vegetables in Shanxi.
Although vermicelli occupies a very important position in our daily diet, it is basically not visible in the New Year’s Eve dinner on the 30th night. It is mostly used as a staple food for relatives and friends to visit the New Year during the Spring Festival. Serve the stewed vermicelli.
In addition to the main ingredients of vermicelli and pork, vermicelli dishes have other ingredients that are different from each household, and they also have their own characteristics in cooking. Traditional big pot dishes are more about heavy oil and red soup. Heavy oil means that lard is used when frying large pot dishes, and the amount of oil used is relatively large; while red soup requires the stewed large pot dishes to be red and bright, which requires that the sugar color is better, if the sugar color is not good in the later stage I’m going to borrow soy sauce or add a few tomatoes just like me to add color.
Today's vermicelli dish I copied my grandfather's practice in my memory. When I was a child, when I was not too wealthy, every time we went to my grandfather’s house, he liked to deep-fry the boiled eggs until golden, and then put them in the pot and stew them with meat and vegetables. The golden eggs sucked enough. The taste of the broth is very fragrant.
During the Chinese New Year, every household will make tofu and croquettes for the New Year. Therefore, during the Spring Festival, some fried tofu and croquettes will be added to the big pot dishes. Dozens of vegetables and meat are put in a big firewood pot to stew and stew. China borrows flavor from each other, is mixed and not messy, these most common ingredients create the unpretentious taste of vermicelli.
