Tips:
1. The choice of ingredients is very important. You must choose sweet potato flour for vermicelli, which is the key to smooth taste;
2. When blanching the noodles, be sure to blanch the noodles twice. After the noodles are blanched in the pot, the first time they are brewed in cold water is to remove the peculiar smell of the noodles. This method is learned from a video. It feels like it used to be The blanched vermicelli has a special raw taste. This method really solves this problem. Then put it in boiling water and blanch it, and then remove the cold water, so that the processed vermicelli has a more taste, and it feels true after trying it. Yes, of course, if you find it troublesome, it’s okay to have cold water once;
3. Garlic water must be put in. I have made hot and sour noodles before, but the taste is a little worse than the outside. This time I found that there was no garlic water. Although it is only a small step, it is really indispensable. It is very flavorful, and the garlic water tastes very fragrant but not spicy. It can also prevent the garlic from stinking in the mouth when eating hot and sour powder, which is a good trick;
4. Hot pot seasoning is indispensable. In the hot and sour noodle shops on the street, there is a pot of thick soup, which is hot pot seasoning. Why hot and sour noodles are delicious? This is indispensable , If you only put condiments such as chili oil, light soy sauce, and vinegar, you will find that the taste of hot and sour powder is not so delicious. What is missing is the base material.
