Rice noodles are a common meal in southern China, and it is a bit of a stretch to classify them as a snack, as it is often one of the main meal options in these regions. Changsha people's love for rice noodles is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, compared to other snacks that are only open for half a day, Changsha's rice noodle shops are generally open all day, and some even serve them until late at night. Many Changsha people will also bring their own containers, buy them in the store and eat them at home.
Using rice as raw material, it is made into strips through soaking, steaming, strip pressing and other processes, which is the main production method of rice noodles. Different from the round flour in Liangguang and other places, the rice flour in Changsha is generally flat flour. Flat flour is easier to taste than round flour, and it has a flexible texture that melts almost in your mouth. Since the rice noodles themselves are tasteless, their seasoning mainly depends on the soup, and the smooth rice noodles are wrapped in the umami soup in the mouth, and the taste is very good.
The side dish is an important role in rice noodles, and the Changsha people also call it the cover yard and yard, and in the Jiangnan area, this side dish that adds flavor to the pastry is called the topping. The cover code in Changsha rice noodles is divided into simmering code and fried code, the former is cooked in advance, and diners only need to add it to the bowl after ordering; The latter is freshly stir-fried and often sells slightly more for a simmer because it is fresher and tastes better. Pork ribs, shredded meat, and beef are all common cover sizes. In addition, rice noodle shops in Changsha will also provide small ingredients such as capers, shredded mustard and celery for diners to mix by themselves. Unlike rice noodles and soups in Hubei, Sichuan and Chongqing, Changsha rice noodle shops generally do not actively add chili peppers, so there is no spiciness, which also provides diners with the convenience of operating according to their own tastes.
