Hong Kong in the 21st century is the wealth center of the entire South, where all the cash and online banking flowing to Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States are gathered, and the elite is countless high-rise buildings, and the prosperity is everywhere in gold. But before the 1950s, Hong Kong was not like this, China as a victorious power to recover Hong Kong, but at that time the problems in the mainland had already dragged down most of the energy of the Chinese government, and foreign entrepreneurs did not dare to touch this moldy head at this time, resulting in chaos in Hong Kong, economic poverty, people's living standards were not guaranteed, the prestige of the government was minimized, and the gangs were in chaos. In that turbulent era, the food and beverage industry was hit hard, and stores had to endure not only high costs, but also the smashing of gangsters, and survival was extremely difficult.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > At this time, a new way of selling, the car boy, came into being. </h1>
The modified quad has plenty of space to hold spices, food and a few small stools and tables, and can open shops wherever people go. This way of selling is not only low cost, but also flexible, which can avoid the poison of the gang to the greatest extent. At first, people only bought some sugar water and snacks on the car, but as the people's work intensified, they began to add staple foods to it, and chezai noodles were born.
Chezai noodles themselves use only ordinary flour, and then add lye water to the noodles, which can make the noodles taste stronger and reduce the time to wake up. Since the noodles themselves have no taste, the essence of chezai noodles lies in the soup, and the taste of the soup determines the taste of chezai noodles. The most authentic chezai noodles are only two flavors, curry fish eggs and beef brisket, which were also the most popular street food in Hong Kong in the 1950s. The method of curry fish eggs is not complicated, the flour and the beaten fish residue are kneaded together, then kneaded into balls, put into boiling water until it is formed, and then buy a pack of curry powder from the supermarket (you can also make it yourself, but most ordinary people do not master this skill), boil the powder with water, you can also add some sauce according to your own creativity, and finally pour the boiled curry soup on the fish egg, a Hong Kong flavor curry fish egg is made. The combination of fish and flour makes the balls loose but also easy to taste and taste excellent, and when paired with a rich curry soup, you can feel a full sense of happiness in one bite. The characteristics of the lye water noodles themselves determine that it has a strong inclusiveness in taste, and it can almost perfectly absorb the aroma of curry juice, so a bite of fish eggs and a bite of Chezai noodles can already bring great satisfaction to hong Kong people who have worked hard for a day at that time.
The brisket juice is much simpler. Beef brisket dishes have a special status throughout the liangguang and Hong Kong areas, and people who have eaten here will generally find a peculiar rule: whether it is in high-end restaurants or roadside noodle shops, there will basically be brisket dishes, and the price is the highest in the store. There is only one reason, it is so fragrant, even if it is a piece of beef brisket cooked in water, you can't help but eat it. So the practice of beef brisket noodles is simple and rough, you only need to buy a piece of brisket and a package of brisket in the supermarket, and then put it in the rice cooker to cook for a night, and then pour the soup juice on the noodles, the fragrant beef brisket juice makes the original ordinary noodles soar in value, a bite of car brisket noodles and then mixed with half a mouthful of brisket juice, the sense of soul in the mouth is enough to make people feel uneasy.
In fact, CheZai noodles are not only an authentic folk snack, but also a proof of the indomitability and tenacity of Hong Kong people. In that dark era, they still loved life, even if they pushed the cart around, they did not lose their desire for the future, they supported in the dark, smiling in the ruins.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > through a bowl of simple "chezai noodles", as if to see the main reason why Hong Kong can now become the economic center of the south, inseparable from our hard-working people. I also hope that our entire motherland will become more prosperous and powerful</h1>
