CORN NooooooDLE!~
Posted by mint on April 26th, 2008
Today I went back my grandma’s home which is in Beijing. And she cooked some special noodle for lunch. I want to talk about the noodle ~~!
We can’t buy this kind of noodle in the market now, and rare people know it. It’s from my grandma’s hometown. Her relatives brought this to her. It is made of corn, actually, part of corn.
MAKING PHASE
It’s the embryo of the corn—-very small part.
First, someone has to take all the embryo out of the corn, and grind them.
Second, ferment it until it become a little sour.
Than put it together and strike it. The striking process would last for long until it become sticky(unbelievable, eh?)
At last, use a shiever and make it into noodle shape.
FINISH!
COOKING PHASE
First, cook some pig-bone soup (for 3 to 4 hours), and put some mushroom into the soup (or some other vegetables if u like)
Than boil some water. And put the noodle into the boiler. Be careful the time! We turn off the fire as soon as the water is boiled again.
Shieve the noodle from the water. put the noodle into a bowl, than add the soup. If you like, add some caraway.
FINISH.
I think it’s very delicious, I like it~HAHA
