The videos I watched became popular in ancient times

Chapter 96 It’s better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish

When two o'clock in the afternoon approached, the ancients from all dynasties under the sky were already making preparations.

Some talented and strategic emperors attached great importance to the army and were always looking for ways to improve the combat effectiveness of their soldiers so that they could win battles for their country.

If instant noodles can be successfully reproduced, the army will have more convenient and faster rations in the future, which is tantamount to improving the combat effectiveness of the army.

Therefore, Ming lords such as Emperor Qin, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Zong of Tang and Song Dynasty ordered the imperial chefs to follow the videos and make instant noodles of their own country.

In addition to these big guys who are interested in how to make instant noodles, there is another group of people whose interest is not much worse than these big guys, and that is businessmen from various dynasties.

To become a businessman, your business sense is much stronger than that of ordinary people.

The smart businessman immediately sensed the business opportunity of instant noodles. Once instant noodles can be copied, he will definitely make a lot of money.

First of all, instant noodles are indeed a good thing, convenient and delicious, and there is no need to worry about lack of market.

Secondly, the instant noodle market is a virgin territory that no one has set foot in yet, so the first batch of people who set foot there are destined to have their mouths full of oil.

The reputation of Sanlai instant noodles has been widely advertised through the sky, and it has been known to people all over the world. Once it is launched on the market, it will definitely be sold out.

Because of this, the merchants from various dynasties under the canopy are fully prepared, and the chefs they have recruited are also ready to go, waiting for Su Chen to announce the making process of instant noodles.

Two o'clock in the afternoon arrived quietly, and Su Chen played the video he had prepared in advance for everyone to watch.

[The making process of instant noodles#半杀 Instant Noodles#Learn to cook with Douyin]

[The first step is to start with the noodles. If you want instant noodles to be strong, you need to use high-gluten flour. Then add eggs and salt and the noodles will definitely be stronger.

The noodle dough must be very hard, and it will become smooth after waking up for an hour and then kneading it.

Then use a dough press to press it into thin sheets, then press it into thin noodles and spread it flat. Use three chopsticks to pick up a wave. Roll the front and take out the chopsticks and then roll the back. Finally, bring the chopsticks together and the big waves of the dough will come out. 】

Ying Zheng: The flour is so white that only nobles can afford it. There are also eggs and salt. The raw materials for flour cakes are so expensive. It’s probably not feasible to make them on a large scale. We can only make a reduced version.

Liu Che: If you look at it this way, the cost of just one noodle cake is not low. The cost of making it into military rations is too high. The financial resources of the national treasury are not enough to support it. I don’t know if it can be replaced by cereals.

Just a simple making of pancakes shocked the jaws of many ancient people, leaving all the ancient people watching the video under the canopy dumbfounded.

Now everyone finally knows why instant noodles are so delicious.

Just kidding, the fine snow-white flour alone is not affordable for ordinary people. It is difficult to make instant noodles whether it tastes good or not.

There are also eggs, which are a luxury item for ordinary people, and they can only eat one or two during holidays.

Many people gave up on the first step of making instant noodles because the cost was too high and they had no choice but to give up.

But some businessmen are unwilling to give up. In order to make money, this difficulty is nothing. If the cost is high, they will switch to low-cost ingredients.

If you can’t afford fine flour, you can use ordinary flour or multigrain flour.

As for eggs, there is no need for them. Only by reducing costs can you make big money.

[The second step of the process is steaming. Put the dough into a fixed shape and steam it in a pot.

The third step is to fry at low temperature for about three minutes, so that it can be shaped and stored for a long time. ]    Li Shimin: It's okay to steam it, but frying it is too luxurious. The annual oil production is only a little, which is not enough for large households. It is probably unrealistic to use it to fry instant noodles.

The businessmen who saw this scene under the canopy all smiled bitterly. The cost would be higher if they were fried.

Oil is not something that ordinary people use. It is expensive and the quantity is not large.

If you have to use deep-frying, then I'm afraid I can't make this instant noodles. I just don't know if there are any other methods that don't use oil.

[Nowadays, many people are worried that eating too much oil is unhealthy. They can try non-fried instant noodles.

After the noodles are steamed, the noodles are dried at high temperature to evaporate the moisture in the noodles. This way, instant noodles can be stored for a long time. 】

Zhao Kuangyin: It is better to dry at high temperature, which is much cheaper than frying. This way, the cost is lower, and instant noodles can be produced on a large scale, so that soldiers can eat new military rations as soon as possible.

All the businessmen looked overjoyed. They were worried that they couldn't afford the oil, but they didn't expect that there was an alternative.

Frying is not possible, but drying at high temperature is still very easy to do.

According to the method on the marquee, they are confident in making the cake.

Although it cannot be as perfect as later generations, it can still be somewhat authentic.

[After the bread is done, next make the vegetable buns. Cut the cabbage and carrots into small pieces, blanch them, and dry them in the sun.

Just use the seasoning packets you have at home. You can add some salt and MSG appropriately.

The sauce package requires butter. Sauté the spices until fragrant. Add some minced meat and some chili powder for seasoning. Stir evenly and let cool to solidify. 】

Zhu Di: Vegetable buns are okay. You can chop some vegetables, blanch them and then dry them. There is no problem with this. But seasoning packets and sauce packets are not good. The production cost is too high, higher than the cost of bread. It seems that they are just Now that you can make vegetable buns, you can put some salt in them.

The high cost of seasoning packets and sauce packets has left many businessmen secretly stunned.

It’s made with spices, butter, and minced meat, so don’t worry about the high cost.

If you want to produce and sell it on a large scale, you must reduce the cost so that ordinary people can afford it.

After watching the entire instant noodles production video, all they can make are noodles and vegetable buns, so it’s no problem to make a simple version of instant noodles.

The key point is that it can be stored for a long time and is convenient to eat. It is very suitable for selling to customers who travel far away.

Many restaurant and inn owners have mastered the method of making instant noodles and secretly decided to reproduce it completely. As the signature dish of the restaurant, it will definitely attract many customers.

They can definitely handle the step-by-step production methods and ingredients required in the video.

Although the final bowl of instant noodles is expensive, it doesn't matter, there is an endless stream of customers coming to taste it.

Heroes like Emperor Qin and Han Wu gained a lot after watching the video.

The method of making instant noodles is not difficult. The focus is on the raw materials. As long as you make appropriate adjustments, you can make instant noodles of your own dynasty, and it is no problem to use them as military rations.

Immediately, these emperors ordered people to make military rations according to the methods taught by Tianmu.
