MTL - Home Cook-Chapter 40 Noodles with neither soup nor ingredients

About 30 minutes later, Bai Ye opened the cloth that had wrapped the dough, revealing the dough that had been awakened inside.

He reached out and kneaded a few times, only to feel that the dough was full of toughness.

"Well, it's almost done, so the next thing is ramen."

Bai Ye nodded, ready to start ramen.

Ramen, this is a skillful job. In the past life, Bai Ye thought that the chef in the restaurant's hand-pulling noodle technique looked cool, but he didn't expect that now he would do it himself.

"call…"

Bai Ye took a deep breath, and then handed everything over to his body's instincts.

The noodles that have just been awakened cannot be pulled directly. At this time, a step called slipping must be done first.

Bai Ye first pounded, kneaded, stretched, and dropped the large group of soft noodles, then put the dough on the kitchen table, held both ends of the dough with both hands, lifted it up and beat it **** the chopping board. After the noodles are stretched, he folds the two ends in half, and continues to hold the two ends to beat. The purpose is to adjust the order of the gluten proteins in the dough, so that the disordered protein molecules are arranged into a long chain, so this step is also called smoothing. gluten.

This step is quite tiring, usually done by young men with big shoulders and round waists, but although Bai Ye is not with big shoulders and round waists, his physical fitness is abnormal, and this physical work is not enough for him.

Knead the smooth dough into strips, smear a layer of clear oil on the dough at night to prevent the noodles from sticking together again after a while, and then officially start the noodles.

Pulling noodles is a unique skill with one hand. I saw Bai Ye holding both ends of the noodles in his hands, and his arms evenly accelerated and pulled outwards, then folded the two ends in half, and placed both ends between the fingers of one hand at the same time, and hooked the **** of the other hand downwards. Hold the other end and turn your palms up to form a noose-like shape of the noodles, and at the same time stretch your hands to the sides again.

After the noodles are stretched, Bai Ye puts the hooked end of his right hand on his left finger, and continues to hook the other end with his right hand to stretch.

Bai Ye's speed is very fast when stretching, but the force used is very uniform.

After repeatedly stretching for six or seven times, Bai Ye shook his hand and shook the noodles that had become fragrant and thick in his hands. This shaking was to make the noodles evenly thick.

After such a busy life, a large lump of noodles was pulled up, Bai Ye threw his hands upwards, and saw that the slender and long noodles that had been pulled contracted in mid-air and bounced back, as if it were not noodles, but instead. It's like a rubber band, which shows the elasticity of Bai Ye's noodles.

"Haha, it's done, mother-in-law, it seems that I will pass your test this time."

Looking at the noodles that fell from the air and contracted into a ball due to their elasticity, Bai Ye smiled. After seeing the elasticity of this side, he knew that he had succeeded this time.

"The craftsmanship is not bad, about 80% of the peak period, this seems to be stable."

Set up a pot again, boil water in the pot, add a spoonful of lard to the boiling water in the middle of the night, then chopped green onion, minced ginger, and finally throw the noodles into the pot.

After entering the water, only the noodles were tumbling and boiling in the cauldron, as if the pot was not boiling noodles, but a white dragon. The white dragon flew up and down in the water, waving its claws as if it were flying in the air. , and at this time, a strong fragrance of face smells in the air.

"Well, get the job done."

After about five or six minutes, Bai Ye picked up the noodles from the pot.

The only thing that was bare was noodles. Bai Ye didn't add noodle soup or any other ingredients to the bowl, so he just walked to the front store with the bowl.

"Hey, isn't the kid moving very fast? I thought I would have to wait until noon to eat."

The old woman watched Bai Ye come over, and she spoke directly to ridicule.

She couldn't wait to spit out this boy fiercely, and this time she had to make this boy lose face in front of Xiaohui.

"Haha, mother-in-law, this is the first time you have come to my shop to join us. How dare I make you wait so long. It's only made in such a hurry. Come on mother-in-law, try my Guoshi Wu-Double."

Putting the bowl in front of the old woman's table, Bai Ye also had a smiley expression on his face. He was not a good-natured man. He had already seen it. The old woman was obviously here to find fault.

"Uh, boy, are you sure you're not kidding my old lady, what about the noodle soup? What about the seasoning? What kind of ramen is this only noodles?"

After the old woman looked down at the bowl, she saw only noodles and no noodle soup in the bowl. It was so simple that she couldn't help but gloomy. The old woman began to wonder if Bai Ye was fooling her.

Originally, when she saw that Bai Ye was done so quickly, she felt that this kid was a little unreliable. Slow work can only be done carefully. This kid didn't do any preparations before. How could the noodles that are made so quickly be any good noodles?

But when she thought that the purpose of her coming today was to make this kid humiliated in front of Xiaohui, the old woman was not angry anymore.

"It's because you didn't take scolding seriously yourself. Since you're fooling my old lady by making a noodle, don't blame my old lady for scolding others without mercy."

The old woman thought so, but when Bai Ye's face really came to her, the old woman was still stunned. Is this the face? You're just kidding me, where's the noodle soup? What about the seasonings? The only thing that is bare is noodles. How can I eat it?

"Hehehe, how long has it been since no one dared to show this kind of thing in front of my wife?"

The old lady was really angry this time. After all, she was here to find fault. Bai Ye used the ramen she made at random to fool her. She could tolerate this, but now she dared to bring the semi-finished products that were not finished to her. It was too much, so she looked at Bai Ye with a very bad look. If this kid didn't give her an explanation today, she would have a hundred ways to make him unable to get along in the eleventh district.

"Mother-in-law, calm down first, Senior White, you too, don't you stop joking, okay?"

Tian Suohui, who was on the side, looked at the shabby noodles in the bowl, her face also stiffened. Obviously, she did not expect Bai Ye to bring out such a strange ramen. She just thought Bai Ye was joking, so she comforted her. The angry mother-in-law looked at Bai Ye with pleading eyes.

Tian Suohui felt that she had had enough, why every time her mother-in-law and Senior White met, they would quarrel. She was sandwiched between the two to help no one. Alas, it's so hard to be a human being.

"Mother-in-law, didn't you say you want to eat some light ramen? Is my noodles not light enough?"

In fact, Bai Ye still wanted to say something rude, so that Sa Sa's anger was being picked on by the old woman for no apparent reason, but looking at Xiao Hui's pleading eyes, he softened and quickly added a sentence.

"Besides, my Guo Shi Wu Dian has neither soup nor ingredients. I really didn't fool your old man."

"real?"

As for Bai Ye's explanation, the old woman didn't believe it.

Who are you fooling, how can there be ramen that has neither soup nor taste, you are my wife and a layman.

"Really, I won't lie to you."

Bai Ye's face is sincere.

"Okay, then I'll try it, boy, if you're really fooling me, then the old lady will let you boy know why the flowers are so red."

Looking carefully at Bai Ye's face, the old woman found that this kid didn't seem to be joking, so she couldn't help but glance at the bowl of "clear noodles" in front of her again, wondering if there is any mystery in it not.

Picking up the chopsticks, the old woman picked up a chopstick noodles and put it in her mouth.
