Zhenjiang is a southern city. Why does everyone like to eat noodles?

Zhenjiang, also a southern city, is a city with a low sense of existence in southern Jiangsu. Compared with Su Xichang, its economy and popularity are not as good as theirs.

In the streets of Zhenjiang, a few steps, you will see a noodle restaurant, whether it is an old brand or a small private noodle restaurant, you will often meet it in Zhenjiang.

In Zhenjiang, breakfast is mostly pot cover noodles. Speaking of pot cover noodles, it seems to have existed since the Qing Dynasty. It is said that there is a short story with Gan Long. When I went to Jiangnan, I wanted to eat noodles in Zhenjiang, and I happened to go to a noodle restaurant of Zhang Sao. Sister-in-law Zhang mistook the small pot cover on the soup pot for the big pot cover and threw it into the noodle pot. Unexpectedly, the noodles cooked in this way are delicious and praised by Gan Long. Then many people burned the pot cover noodles with the wind. Until now, Zhenjiang people have always loved noodles.

Zhenjiang geography belongs to the intersection of north and south. The south is both soft and gentle, and the north is stubborn and resolute. It is such a humble southern town, but people here love to eat pot cover noodles very much.

I come from Zhenjiang. Compared with northerners, Zhenjiang people have less "love" for noodles, because northerners can eat noodles for three meals a day, and all kinds of pasta are full of tricks. My friend in Shanxi said: when you come to our place, you are allowed to eat noodles every time, and it is different for a month! On the other hand, Zhenjiang people like to eat noodles in the morning. If you eat noodles in the morning, you ask him to continue eating noodles at noon, which is generally refused, and few people eat noodles at night. Therefore, the famous pot cover noodle restaurant in Zhenjiang only does morning market and afternoon market, and closes around 1 at night.

Friends from other places come to eat pot cover noodles, so I will remind them: Be sure to arrive before noon 12, or the noodle restaurant will close if it is late! This is the characteristic of Zhenjiang pot cover noodles-noodle restaurants with good business and fame don't do night markets, which is also related to the fact that Zhenjiang people seldom eat noodles at night.

Many people think that southerners love noodles when they eat rice. In fact, many southern cities have made famous noodles, such as cauldron noodles in Kunshan, skin belly noodles in Nanjing, Three Gorges noodles in Suzhou, Zhu Sheng noodles in Guangzhou and pot cover noodles in Zhenjiang, which are very popular in Tik Tok, and were rated as one of the top ten noodles in China.

Speaking of it, the surface color of Jiangnan is mainly on the toppings. Just like the pot cover noodles mentioned by the subject, the noodles are the same in a bowl, but the difference is all kinds of toppings. Therefore, it is popular to eat pot cover noodles: the pot cover is boiled in the noodle pot, a hot topping and two hot chopsticks! The toppings here refer to kidney sausage, shredded eel and so on. At the same time, it is cooked in a pot with a colander and buckled in a bowl, so the price of noodles is different from that of toppings.

These bowls are filled with hot toppings.

It's not like northerners making noodles: Lamian Noodles, Daoxiao Noodles, a knot in one's heart, steamed noodles, shrimp, Lamian Noodles, all kinds of shapes and practices. People in Zhenjiang eat noodles, either in the noodle restaurant to eat ready-made pot cover noodles, or buy some raw water to go home. There are only several kinds of water surfaces: wide surface, fine surface and knife surface. They seldom make all kinds of fancy pasta with flour at home, nor can they. This is the same.

During the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom period, the population of Zhenjiang City decreased by 80%, and later immigrants from the north added it, resulting in the accent of Zhenjiang City being Xihuai dialect, while suburban counties were still Wu dialect, and the diet was diluted by immigrants from the north. It was not until a few years ago that the population of Zhenjiang recovered to the level of Xianfeng. Poor Zhenjiang is the birthplace of Wu culture and has become an enclave of Huai dialect in the south of the Yangtze River.

Zhenjiang pot cover noodles were made in a noodle restaurant when Gan Long went to Jiangsu. When cooking noodles, he was in a hurry to cover the pot of marinated soup on the noodle pot. If the lid is small, it will fall into the noodle pot. Because there was no hurry to get it out, Emperor Qianlong went to the kitchen to see what the noodles were cooked, just in time to see the scene of cooking noodles. The old restaurant crustily skin of head fished out noodles for Emperor Ganlong to eat. After eating, it was said to be delicious, so it was called pot cover noodles. See the origin of pot cover noodles on the wall of a hotel in Xuzhou.

Just a few places to eat noodles every day. Not the north, much less the north. Not many people eat noodles every day. I have never been to Zhenjiang. I studied in Nanjing for two years in the early 1990s, when the noodle restaurant in Nanjing was worse than any other city. Even Henan, Shaanxi and Shanxi in the north will not say that they eat noodles every day.

Zhenjiang is a famous historical and cultural city, located in the south of Jiangsu Province. Nanxu is one of them. According to legend, during the Southern Song Dynasty, Emperor Wudi was in war for years and the people were displaced. After Emperor Wudi proclaimed himself emperor, Zhenjiang was vast and sparsely populated, so Xuzhou people immigrated to Zhenjiang in large numbers. Because Xuzhou people miss their hometown, they changed their name to Jiangnan Xu. After a large number of northerners entered Zhenjiang, they changed the dialect and diet of Zhenjiang, thus giving birth to Zhenjiang pot cover noodles, one of the top ten pasta in China. Walking into the streets and lanes of Zhenjiang, you will find Zhenjiang pot cover noodle restaurant everywhere, and you will be surprised to find that every pot for cooking noodles has a small pot cover. Zhenjiang people's day begins with a bowl of pot cover noodles.

From the chaos of eight kings in the late Western Jin Dynasty to the chaos of five kings and then to the chaos of the Tang Dynasty, Zhenjiang was ashamed of the chaos of Mongolian children in the Northern Song Dynasty. Last time Daming perished, 70% of the Han people in the Central Plains moved south, which brought the pasta culture and vinegar culture to Zhenjiang. Therefore, during the Tang and Song Dynasties, Zhenjiang claimed to be Mandarin, and Zhenjiang people should be proud of it.

Personal opinion, please read.

Zhenjiang is a city in southern Jiangsu. Everyone likes noodles, but one thing is certain: Zhenjiang people come from Xichang, Su Like, and many people like noodles, especially in the morning. However, unlike Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou people, Zhenjiang people like "pot cover noodles" very much.

I thought that the "pot cover noodles" eaten by Zhenjiang people were similar to those eaten in Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou, and the change was only due to the difference in toppings.

Because I have been to Zhenjiang for many times, I heard that "pot cover noodles" sounds just different from noodles, but it is actually very particular. Zhenjiang's "Pot Cover Noodles" are also called "Daoxiao Noodles". According to its noodle making technology, Zhenjiang people call it "jumping noodles". I once visited the traditional practice of "pot cover noodles" under the leadership of my classmates, that is, putting the preliminarily kneaded dough on the chopping board, then fixing one end on the chopping board with a bamboo pole, and sitting on the other end as a noodle maker, skillfully tapping the noodles up and down, left and right by using the elasticity of the bamboo pole until the dough is pressed into thin and refreshing noodles, and then cutting them into noodles with different widths with a knife. I feel that this process is similar to the production process of Guangdong "bamboo tube noodles".

Now there are so-called Zhenjiang "pot cover noodles" everywhere, and almost no one is entangled in the practice and stress of that kind of noodles. Curious, why put the lid on the pot when cooking noodles? What's better toppings than Zhenjiang Yaorou?

Every time I go to Zhenjiang, I always eat a bowl of pot cover noodles, but I suspect that the pot cover noodles in so many stores are made by traditional techniques. I don't have time to doubt, because eating a real bowl of Zhenjiang pot cover noodles, plus my favorite topping "fried shredded eel", I always feel that I have come to Zhenjiang for nothing.

Zhenjiang is a southern city. Why does everyone like to eat noodles?

There are "three monsters" in Zhenjiang, which are called "balsamic vinegar does not rot". Meat is not a dish, and it is cooked in a noodle pot. The so-called noodle pot cover is about noodles, which Zhenjiang people love to eat. Then, why do you call it a noodle pot to boil the lid? That is, when the noodles are served, there is a big pot, and when the noodles are put in, there is a small cover floating on it in the noodle soup. Why is this happening?

It turned out that once Emperor Qianlong went down to the south of the Yangtze River, he suddenly felt hungry and wanted to eat. At this time, where to eat? I happened to see a noodle restaurant open, so I hurried there. The proprietress of the following article is understandably nervous when she sees the emperor coming. She was so nervous that she put the noodles in the pot and couldn't even find the lid. She quickly grabbed a small lid and threw it into the pot. Unexpectedly, the noodles served in this way were greatly appreciated by Qianlong, and he asked for another bowl. This one, the boss's wife was not nervous, and put the lid on the noodle pot again. As a result, Emperor Qianlong thought it was not as delicious as the first bowl.

Since then, the lid of the noodle pot has spread, and the tradition that Zhenjiang people like to eat noodles has been formed. The noodles in Zhenjiang are really delicious, and people who have eaten them will always remember this bite.

Besides Danyang, Zhenjiang people also come to the north, so they talk and eat like northern customs.

I know I said I was scolded, but I still have to complain that the noodles in Zhenjiang are really bad!
