At six o'clock in the morning, Xie Sanpang Tomato Omelette Noodle House, Yulin Road, CD City.
Boss Xie is preparing the soup used in the noodle shop in the morning - tomato soup.
The essence of omelette noodles is the soup!
After cleaning the red tomatoes and removing the stems, cut them into large pieces and wait for the lard to change from solid to liquid before adding it to the pot.
"Prick...prick..." In just two minutes, the tomato meat has begun to soften and turn into tomato juice.
The flavor is rich and the color of the soup is no less than that of tomato sauce.
Boss Xie has decades of experience in frying tomatoes. When he saw that the tomatoes were already broken, he quickly added water.
The water used is spring water from Mount Emei.
The Emei Mountains, with an altitude of 3,099 meters, are full of mountains and towering ancient trees. A large area of virgin forest forms a natural barrier, making the mountain rich in water storage. The top of the mountain is covered with snow for seven months a year.
A large amount of snow water and rainwater are purified by dense vegetation, seep into the ground, and form mountain spring water through the geological layers. It is rich in natural mineral elements such as calcium, magnesium, potassium, and metasilicic acid.
Those who enjoy delicious food and maintain health in their circle love to use this mountain spring water to cook rice and make tea.
For this good soup, he has been using it for ten years.
Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly, and only need two seasonings: pepper and salt.
In six minutes, the delicious tomato soup is ready.
Tomato omelette noodles, of course, are indispensable for the most important supporting role - omelette!
The proprietress was busy working on another pan, more like deep-frying than frying.
On the large flat-top pot, there is a layer of rapeseed oil about three centimeters thick in circular grids the size of poached eggs.
Start the fire and wait until the oil temperature reaches 50 or 60 degrees, then pour in the stirred egg liquid. The egg liquid will burst into a fluffy shape when it hits the hot oil.
It only takes a few seconds to turn over, and the egg liquid is golden in color, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Before the couple could serve themselves a bowl of noodles, diners had already entered the store.
"Three fat, three or two noodles!" Uncle Wang, an old resident of the community, originally got up early to exercise. When he passed the store entrance, he was already so attracted by the aroma of tomatoes that he couldn't care about anything else.
"I know!"
Boss Xie responded loudly and threw three taels of noodles into the boiling cauldron.
The noodles are capillary noodles specially customized in the noodle factory. It only takes one minute to cook.
It’s cooked but not rotten, and tastes smooth and chewy!
Put a spoonful of bean sprouts (fresh and salty) under the noodle bowl, then spread a crispy fried egg on the cooked noodles, add two tablespoons of cooked tomato soup, and sprinkle with a pinch of chopped green onion.
What you eat is the original flavor of tomatoes.
In less than two minutes, the steaming hot egg noodles are on the table.
A knowledgeable person will take a sip of tomato soup first.
"Hi!" Uncle Wang was surprised.
Believe it or not, today's tomato soup is much sweeter than usual, and the taste is unbelievably thick.
I continued to drink two big sips and smacked the taste. It really didn't look like sugar had been put in it. It was quite naturally sweet and full of natural sourness.
Gulu Gulu, I didn’t eat the noodles first, but drank the whole bowl of soup.
My stomach felt as comfortable as if I had been in a sauna. I didn't care about the sweat on my head. After eating three ounces of noodles and an omelette, I was still not full.
"Two more liang, oh no, three liang! Give me more tomato soup!"
Boss Xie poked his head out of the kitchen and said, "Uncle Wang, you still know how to eat. My tomatoes today are the top tomatoes, and they have an extraordinary taste."
"You kid, you know how to handle it! I'll have a meal every day because of this taste. When I get back, I'll tell you, Mrs. Wang, not to make breakfast. After eating, I feel very comfortable in my heart and stomach."
"Then you have to come early tomorrow. I guess I'll be out of business before ten o'clock today."
"Are you so stupid that you don't even know how to make money even if you have money?"
"Oh, Uncle Wang, you have watched me grow up, but I don't want to make money! The tomatoes I used today are so popular that I only managed to grab a hundred kilograms of them in one day."
Boss Xie: My old neighbor, I’m afraid you won’t be able to kill me, so I can only ask you to come early.
Before he could say a few words, another premature resident came to see him.
I was originally only interested in tomato noodles, but when I smelled the overbearing tomato smell wafting from Boss Xie's kitchen, I was so hooked that I couldn't walk.
Comfort yourself one by one. It’s better to eat something lighter in the morning and take some vitamin supplements.
Less than three minutes after eating, there were shouts one after another:
"Thank you boss, I'll give you two extra sides!"
"Three Fatties, I want to add more, too, more tomato soup!"
"boss......"
People who don't like tomato noodles ate it enthusiastically, and there were also a group of fans who had been eating it for ten years, who were really excited.
It didn’t matter if I was eating it myself, I was just giving it to my family or friends. I didn’t care that it was only half past six, so I dialed the phone.
"Xie Sanpang Tomato Noodle House, come here quickly! Pack it up? You idiot, will the dried noodles still taste good after being packed away? Hurry up and come over to eat in person. I guarantee you can eat half a catty of noodles."
"Hello? Still sleeping! What time do you want to sleep until? Send my little granddaughter over for breakfast quickly! Picky eater? Why don't you blame your cooking for not being delicious! Just have some tomato noodles as an appetizer... .”
"Don't know what to eat for breakfast? Listen to me, come and make some noodles! It's Xie Sanpang's tomato omelette noodles at the entrance of the community. Who says it's bland, tasteless, and not delicious? I call you my ancestor, my son!"
It was really not as optimistic as Boss Xie thought. At 9:30, the soup made from one hundred kilograms of tomatoes was clear.
He and his wife are still hungry! I went to the Chaoshou shop next door and had a bowl of Chaoshou.
The couple went to play mahjong after get off work!
After eating the best tomatoes, who would want to make do with ordinary stuff?
The unfortunate residents near the noodle shop eat tomato noodles and get up earlier than others every day.
Even if the face price doubled to six yuan or one tael, the calculating community residents flocked to it.
How good Boss Xie was in the past. He only closed at three in the afternoon, so young people could still have breakfast and lunch no matter how late they slept.
Now, before nine o'clock, it's dangerous at eight-thirty.
When tourists see it, they think this noodle shop is closed all year round!
The vegetable farmers in the greenhouses went crazy counting the bills every day. They all told the wives and old ladies at home to go to the house of Yu Ma to help and talk to the old lady.
Think about it, last year, they were still growing tomatoes, and the wholesale price was a few cents per pound. Now, how many times has it increased?
Next year, we must expand production scale.
I became more and more certain that the tomato seeds from Madam Yu’s family were different from the ordinary ones, so of course I had to order the seedlings from her family.
You say: I sigh when I look at the seeds. I am not used to the days when there is no money coming in.
Her cherry radishes produce mini gourd-like pods, and Baba makes a fortune pointing at them.
Red potatoes require almost no management and can grow overwhelmingly on their own.
Tomatoes and honeydew melons are also taken care of by her grandfather and uncle, and she is the only one who talks about them.
