Luzhugou Yangchun Noodles Introduction
Luzhugang is a fishing port with a military unit stationed there, frequented by fishermen and local villagers, but there are no places to have snacks or fill up on food. In light of this, Zheng Fengqin (born in 1953) set up a stall at her home to sell plain noodles, primarily catering to soldiers, fishermen, and locals, with few outside visitors. The ingredients for Luzhugang plain noodles are noodles, pork sauce, and cabbage. The preparation method involves cooking the noodles in boiling water; once the noodles float to the surface, cabbage is added, briefly boiled, and then served in bowls topped with pork sauce and broth. The broth is made by simmering pork bones all day, turning off the heat only at closing time, without adding salt for a natural flavor. In addition to plain noodles, Luzhugang plain noodles also sell sesame sauce noodles and hot pot noodles. Motorcycle groups passing through often stop in to eat hot pot noodles. The preparation for hot pot noodles involves adding clams, shrimp, fish balls, shredded meat, and noodles into the pot to cook together. Once cooked, an egg is added, along with cabbage, briefly boiled again, and then served in bowls.
