Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country-Chapter 333 - 334: Unbeatable Flavor, Carbohydrate Bomb Youpo Noodles
Chen Baoguo picked up the noodles, staring at the oily, glossy, and enticing broad noodles, and involuntarily took a deep breath.
The aroma of the noodles had always been strong, but now, just awakened by the hot oil, it spread everywhere. The sparks from the collision of chili peppers and hot oil, the rich wheat fragrance, and the various rich yet not overpowering seasonings intertwined, giving him an overwhelming sense of satisfaction.
Surviving a great disaster indeed brings fortune, and this bowl of noodles with its perfect color, aroma, and taste certainly deserved such fortune!
"Slurp..."
Chen Baoguo couldn’t help but bring the noodles to his mouth and took a strong slurp; the wide, thick, yet smooth and chewy noodles went into his mouth, the rapeseed oil holding the seasonings tightly on the noodles; as soon as they entered his mouth, he felt the spicy taste dancing on his tongue.
Normally, Chen Baoguo could only tolerate up to medium spiciness, but this time he wanted extra spicy; he wanted to celebrate surviving a near-death experience once again.
The unique burning sensation of the chili pepper stimulated his tongue, causing him to exhale a breath of hot air.
The sourness of vinegar, the saltiness of salt with a hint of sweetness, coupled with the rich spiciness of the chili peppers, constituted the base flavor of this broad noodle.
With one bite, he could clearly feel the noodles resisting his teeth; the smooth yet slightly bouncy texture of the noodles, to Chen Baoguo, was better than all the delicacies of the world.
No, can’t hold back even a bit!
Even with his mouth feeling like it was on fire, Chen Baoguo still took a big slurp of noodles; the crisp and refreshing bean sprouts, along with more noodles, got sucked into his mouth, bringing more variation in texture and taste.
However, if you slurp such spicy noodles, you’re bound to pay the price.
"Cough cough..."
Chen Baoguo couldn’t help but cough loudly, his face turning red; this was due to being choked by the chili.
Li Kai hurriedly patted him on the back while unscrewing a Wahaha mineral water and placing it by his side: "Leader Chen, don’t force yourself if you can’t handle the spice; this level of spiciness is a bit too high for you."
Having worked together for over a decade, Li Kai naturally knew Chen Baoguo’s limits.
After taking a few big gulps of mineral water, Chen Baoguo gave Wang Fan a thumbs-up: "Awesome! Even though it’s a bit spicy for me, I must say eating it like this is really thrilling!"
Li Kai shook his head and left him alone; his own bowl of noodles was waiting for him to finish them off.
He had ordered medium spicy, which was just right for him; it could make him break out in sweat but wouldn’t pose a threat to his stomach. He could swear to the heavens that this bowl of noodles was the best he’d ever had.
Moreover, as the noodles in the bowl gradually decreased, the seasonings and side dishes accumulated more and more, and the remaining noodles were soaked in the seasonings for longer, making the flavor more intense, and eating them made it feel like this bowl of noodles was getting even tastier.
By midway through, almost everyone had picked up their bowls, directly shoveling with chopsticks into their mouths; the wide, thick noodles, bean sprouts, bok choy, and the fragrant scallions with a bit of charred aroma went into their mouths, and the indescribable fragrance that reached the deepest part of the soul made them love it to the point of madness.
At this point, Chen Baoguo really didn’t even have the interest to speak. In principle, such delicious noodles would require commendation of the chef’s skills, but the noodles were so delicious that all they wanted was to shovel them into their mouths bite after bite, without any desire to speak.
Cheng Dong stared pensively at the few people slurping noodles and couldn’t help but think, it’s just a bowl of noodles, is it really that good?
When I used to make noodles for you, if I didn’t add a packet of mustard, you all said it tasted like wax; this bowl of noodles doesn’t have any pickles, yet you’re eating it as if you haven’t eaten in days?
But these noodles indeed looked appetizing and smelled delicious, much beyond what my shredded meat with preserved vegetables noodles could compare to. I’d better learn the art stealthily and serve it to shock them next time!
Zhuo Qianqian was eagerly watching Chen Baoguo and the others eating their noodles, already unable to help but swallow her own saliva.
Since coming here, she mostly only ate until she was half full, leaving more food for the affected villagers, and people in the Great Border region naturally liked noodles, which directly hit her weak spot.
"Should I make a bowl for you?"
Noticing the change in Zhuo Qianqian, Wang Fan couldn’t help but ask: "There’re still some noodles left, are you hungry?"
Zhuo Qianqian shook her head: "I’m not eating, someone might not have enough with one bowl now, and though resources aren’t scarce, they’re not particularly abundant either, we shouldn’t waste! Make it for me once we go back."
She herself was assisting in receiving and counting the supplies, well aware of the situation, and knew that now was a special time; she might crave a bit, but it’s better this way than risking those affected villagers going hungry later.
Wang Fan laughed: "No wonder you often attend Ai teacher’s class; your ideological consciousness is certainly high."
Zhuo Qianqian tugged at her badge on her chest, proudly showing it off to Wang Fan; the tiny badge had a dash of bright red, with the words "Serving the People" particularly striking underneath.
A large bowl of noodles was indeed quite a lot, but some were like famished wolves; in just two to three minutes, several team members finished whole bowls of noodles, and the bowls were so clean they could reflect light.
Wang Fan asked: "Are you full yet? There’s still a bit more here."
He Chen patted his belly and shook his head: "Thanks for the noodles, Brother Xiao Wang, I’ve never felt so full before; your oil-sprinkled noodles are really delicious."
"Really delicious, makes me want to swallow my tongue with them."
"So fragrant it makes you feel muddled; if Brother Xiao Wang always cooked for our team, it would be wonderful."
"Don’t joke, if Brother Xiao Wang always cooked for us, forget about improving physical abilities, you’d have a hard time even controlling your weight."
At this point, Chen Baoguo and Li Kai had also finished eating and laid down their chopsticks, contentedly patting their stomachs: "The biggest difference in this disaster relief compared to before is the quality of meals has taken a qualitative leap."
Realizing what he said wasn’t quite right, he hurriedly added to Cheng Dong: "Um...I didn’t mean anything by it."
Cheng Dong shrugged: "I know, my skills indeed can’t compare to Brother Wang, but wait until I learn some tricks, you’ll be drooling when we get back!"
"Click...click..."
The crisp sound of a camera shutter echoed, and at some point, Zhou Ruoqing had appeared behind them, taking photos with her camera.
Zhou Ruoqing looked contentedly at the photos in her camera; sending them out would surely resonate with many.
After taking the photos, she didn’t come close but left right away; she was worried that if she got any closer, she’d be unable to resist having a bowl of noodles herself; even from afar, the aroma was noticeable, and getting closer, she’d have no way of controlling herself.
She uploaded the photos to her computer, and without even retouching them, added content directly to a special post.
