Chapter 635 Yangchun Noodles
"Is it okay to eat it even if I don't celebrate my birthday?" Shirona blinked. Heath was stunned for a moment, then nodded. There was no problem with this. After all, although longevity noodles are essentially a special kind of noodles eaten on birthdays, strictly speaking, they can be eaten even if you don't celebrate your birthday. After all, excluding the unique noodle requirements of longevity noodles, the taste of longevity noodles actually only depends on the cooking method. If it is made into crispy beef noodles, then it is longevity noodles with the flavor of crispy beef noodles. If it is made into plain noodles, then it is longevity noodles with the flavor of plain noodles.
So essentially the only difference between longevity noodles is the length of the noodles.
"Okay, then I'll make you one." Heath finally agreed, but to make longevity noodles, one needs to roll the noodles by hand, so Heath had to go to the kitchen to get out flour and other things to make this unique noodle himself. However, when he started to make it, Heath found that it was not so easy to make a very long noodle. Even a chef like Heath failed several times before he finally made the longevity noodles.
After making the noodles, the next step of the job was much simpler and easier. Heath only had to make this unique longevity noodles in the same way as beef noodles, and then serve it to Shirona. There was nothing else to pay attention to, so it was a relatively simple breakfast. At the same time, Heath also started preparing breakfast for his Pokémon. This time, because of the noodles, Heath planned to make plain noodles.
"Shirona, if you are eating longevity noodles, it is best not to break a single bite." Heath reminded Shirona that there is a special requirement for eating longevity noodles. Not a single noodle can be broken. If it is broken, it is unlucky.
"Eh? How can I eat it if I can't bite it off? Should I just swallow it?" As expected, Sirona was very confused. She didn't understand why she couldn't bite off the noodles. If she couldn't bite off the noodles, how could she eat them? If she swallowed them directly, such long noodles would probably make her stomach uncomfortable, right?
"It's not that you can't bite it off, it's just that you have to keep the noodles in your mouth and don't let them fall into the bowl." Heath reminded patiently. This saying generally means that when eating longevity noodles, you can't let the noodles fall back, otherwise your life will be cut short. Although this is a superstitious saying, people still have such requirements, so Heath needs to give a special reminder, indicating that this portion of longevity noodles cannot fall into the bowl casually.
Of course, because longevity noodles are sometimes eaten by the elderly, it is very troublesome to ensure that the elderly can finish it completely. So many times, if the elderly eat longevity noodles, there is no such requirement, or simply make a small bowl of longevity noodles to ensure that the elderly can eat it completely.
Shirona looked as if she had suddenly realized something, and then Heath watched Shirona eating her longevity noodles here. Then Heath went back to the kitchen and began to prepare this unique food for his Pokémon.
This time Heath made plain noodles. This special noodle dish has a unique feature. Many people think that plain noodles are just plain noodles in clear soup. After all, it looks like just a bowl of plain noodles, with some chopped green onions sprinkled on it at most. It doesn't have as many side dishes as other noodles, such as cabbage and beef. It is just a bowl of noodles, but in fact it tastes fundamentally different from clear soup noodles, and this difference is mainly reflected in the soup.
Someone once said that when you eat noodles, you are actually eating the soup. Heath would not agree with that. After all, different noodles have different requirements. The big crispy beef noodles mainly focus on the beef and soup, while the small noodles focus on the ingredients. Of course, if you want to argue, you can just say braised noodles. Of course, even so, others can also say that when you eat braised noodles, you are actually eating the 'soup' or the gravy.
However, plain noodles are a special type of noodle dish that fits this description better. There is not much particularity about the noodles; they are very ordinary noodles. If you want to make a bowl of plain noodles taste good, you really need to rely on the soup base. A well-made plain noodles also has very high requirements for the soup base. Although it looks like a bowl of clear soup, it is essentially broth with scallion oil.
Scallion oil
Heath has made plain noodles before. He learned to make them when he was in high school. At that time, Heath had no idea what seasonings to add to make noodles taste good. Then he set his eyes on plain noodles, which were said to be very simple. After all, people had huge appetites in high school. Often, a group of classmates would go out to eat, and the food would be gone before it was even on the table. At a buffet, the boss would look at the extra food they ate to prevent Heath and his classmates from wasting it.
As a result, when he entered college, his appetite gradually decreased, and after graduation he could not eat as much as before. Heath then realized that it might be after college graduation, a person's physical development gradually slows down and begins to gradually go downhill.
So Heath, who felt hungry every day at that time, began to study how to make very simple plain noodles. However, when Heath really started making plain noodles, he found out that he had been fooled. Not only are plain noodles not simple, but they also require a lot of attention to detail.
However, the power of foodies is very strong. Heath also embarked on the path of becoming a chef from then on. When he went to college, he began to learn how to make desserts by himself. He always dreamed of having an opportunity to show himself, such as the school organizing a cooking competition, and then Heath would go up and amaze everyone, and then get the priority right to choose a spouse for four years in college.
Unfortunately, the school had never organized similar activities. Instead, there were competitions for singing and dancing, and basketball could also attract the attention of many girls. So Heath later told those younger students who wanted to report to his school in a serious tone on the forum that if they wanted to have the priority in choosing a spouse during their four years in college, they could choose someone who was handsome, or had talents in singing and dancing, or was good at playing basketball. Otherwise, when they reach their senior year, everyone else would be a senior, and they could only be that senior.
What a sad story.
After Heath finished cooking the plain noodles, he carried them into his lounge. Because of Mew, Heath did not let his Pokémon come out for breakfast.
