Nthawi ya 10 koloko m'mawa, chisokonezo cha mumzinda chinali chisanadzuke kwathunthu. Ndinayenda m'njira yodabwitsa, ndipo pamapeto pake ndinapeza malo odyera ang'onoang'ono aku Japan omwe anali pansi pa nyumba yogona anthu. Anali atatsegulidwa kwa zaka zisanu. Malo ogulitsira anali ocheperako—osabisa kwenikweni, kotero kuti anthu odutsa m'njira akanatha kuwanyalanyaza mosavuta pokhapokha ngati akufufuza mwachangu.
Nthawi yomweyo nditangotsegula chitseko, ndinamva fungo la ufa wa tirigu.
Kong, mwiniwake, anali kale wotanganidwa kukhitchini. Munthu wamalonda uyu wazaka za m'ma 85 anaima pamaso paHICOCAmakina a udon, akusamalira mosamala sitepe iliyonse—kukanda, kukanikiza, kugubuduza, ndi kudula—ndi cholinga chosasunthika. Sitoloyo inali isanatsegulidwe mwalamulo, koma anali atalowa kale m'dziko lake: dziko la udon.
"Ndakhala ndikufufuza izi kwa zaka zisanu."
Xiao Kong sanayang'ane mmwamba, maso ake anayang'ana pa mipiringidzo ya mtanda pang'onopang'ono ex
Mtanda wopumula mokwanira unakhala wotanuka bwino, kapangidwe kake kanali kofewa ngati khungu la mwana.
Magawo 12 ozungulira.
Izi ndiHICOCAKapangidwe kochititsa chidwi kwambiri. Sikuti ndi kapangidwe kosaphika, koyenda pang'onopang'ono, koma njira yopitira patsogolo, yotsanzira kusuntha ndi manja. Kukanikiza kulikonse kumadzutsa ukonde wa gluten mkati mwa ufa, kuwalukira mu ukonde wosawoneka—koma womveka—wa kusinthasintha.
Pamene Xiao Kong anagogoda pang'ono pazenera logwira, ulusi woyera wa udon unagwera mofanana kuchokera pa choduliracho kupita pa thireyi yosonkhanitsira. Nthawi yomweyo, ndinawona kuwala m'maso mwake.
Kunali kuwala kwa mmisiri amene ankaona maloto ake akukwaniritsidwa.
“Taonani,” anatenga mtolo wa Zakudya zophikidwa kumene ndipo anakoka pang'ono. Zinadumphadumpha kawiri mlengalenga. “Umu ndi momwe udon iyenera kuonekera.”
Anapaka ufa wa sitachi pa Zakudyazi mwaluso kuti zisamamatire, kenako anazikulunga m'mabokosi. Kuyenda kwake kunali kosasunthika, ngati kuti wachita izi kambirimbiri.
Pasanathe ola limodzi, nyama 50 za udon (pafupifupi mapaundi 60) zinakulungidwa bwino.
Ngati zingapangidwe ndi manja okha, ndalama zimenezi zingafunike kuti katswiri waluso agwire ntchito tsiku lonse. Pano, kugwira ntchito bwino komanso khalidwe labwino sizinalinso zovuta.
"Nthawi zonse ndimafuna kuyang'ana kwambiri pa udon," Xiao Kong anayang'ana mmwamba, akupukuta thukuta pang'ono pamphumi pake. "Koma sindinapeze zida zoyenera. Makina omwe anali pamsika ankapangitsa kuti Zakudyazi zikhale zolimba kwambiri, zinalibe kukoma kokoma, kapena zinkaoneka ngati zamakampani kwambiri—zopanda moyo."
"Mpaka nditakumana ndi wanu."
Ndinamwetulira, koma sindinanene kalikonse. Panthawiyo, ndinali ndi chidwi kwambiri ndi mbale ya Zakudyazi zomwe zinali pafupi kuperekedwa.
Udon wa Nsomba ya Thai Golden Curry Prawn
Kudikira kwa mphindi zisanu sikokwanira, koma kwa munthu amene wangowona zonse zikuchitika, sekondi iliyonse inali yopweteka kwambiri.
Pomaliza pake mbaleyo inafika.
Fungo la curry linandikhudza kwambiri. Nkhanu yokazinga yokazinga yagolide, pomwe munthu wodziwika bwino—wozungulira wa udon—anagona chete m'mbale, akuyembekezera ndodo zanga.
Kuluma koyamba.
Kodi ndingathe kufotokoza bwanji kapangidwe kake?
Ndinadya ku shopu yotchuka ku Tokyo, yomwe imatchedwa kuti ndi imodzi mwa "Udon Waukulu Watatu ku Japan," ndipo ndimaganiza kuti ndimadziwa bwino tanthauzo la udon. Koma kuluma kumeneku kunandidabwitsabe.
Sikuti ndi “kutafuna” kokha. Mawu akuti “kutafuna” ndi ochepa kwambiri moti sangafotokoze kukana pang'ono komwe kumawoneka mano akadula Zakudya za m'madzi. Komanso sikunali kofewa komanso kokoma, chifukwa mawu amenewo safotokoza fungo la tirigu wosakaniza ndi kukoma kokoma komwe kumatulutsa akamatafuna.
Kunali kuuma, chinyezi, kusalala, kukhuthala.
Unali mgwirizano wabwino kwambiri wa malingaliro awa omwe amalumikizana mkamwa. Molondola kwambiri, makinawo adabwereza "choyambitsa" cha kupanga ndi manja, zomwe zidapereka "zotsatira" zomwe zidaposa. Netiweki yabwino kwambiri ya gluten, yomangidwa m'magawo 12 ozungulira, idatsimikiza kuti Zakudya zilizonse zimakhala ndi mphamvu yoyenera mukatha kuphika—zopanda kufooka, zopanda mawonekedwe kapena zolimba komanso zovuta kutafuna. Zinkadumphadumpha pang'onopang'ono pakati pa mano, ndipo pamene munkangoinyalanyaza, zinatulutsa fungo lomaliza la tirigu.
"Makasitomala athu nthawi zonse amakhala okhazikika."
Xiao Kong anakhala moyang'anizana nane, akundiyang'ana ndikudya mokhutitsidwa. Kumwetulira kwapadera kwa eni masitolo—komwe kunali kokhutitsidwa kwenikweni—kunafalikira pankhope pake.
“Ena amatitcha ‘shopu yotchuka pa intaneti’ ndipo amafuna kuti tilimbikitse kwambiri Xiaohongshu ndi Douyin,” iye anatero, akugwedeza mutu wake. “Koma ine ndinakana.”
“Chifukwa chiyani?” ndinafunsa.
“Chifukwa mawu akuti ‘shopu yotchuka pa intaneti’ ndi onyoza ife.” Mawu ake anali odekha koma olimba. “‘Mashopu otchuka pa intaneti’ amathamangitsa magalimoto ndi kutchuka kwakanthawi. Chomwe timathamangitsa ndichakuti, patatha zaka zisanu kapena khumi kuchokera pano, anthu adzakhalabe okonzeka kuwoloka msewu uwu makamaka kuti akadye mbale ya Zakudyazi.”
"Timakhala ndi moyo wabwino. Timakhala ndi moyo wotsatira zomwe tikufuna."
Ndinaika pansi ndodo zanga ndipo ndinayang'ana mnyamata amene anali patsogolo panga mwachidwi. Zaka zisanu zapitazo, anatsegula shopu yaying'ono pakona iyi yobisika, akuyang'anira kudzipereka kwake ku zakudya zaku Japan. Patatha zaka zisanu, anapeza zida zoyenera, zomwe zinalola kuti maloto ake a zaka zisanu a udon wangwiro akhazikike. NdipoHICOCANdinali ndi mwayi wokhala gawo la maloto awa.
Ena amati makina ndi ozizira, amafakitale, komanso alibe mzimu. Koma sadziwa kuti makina ndi zida chabe. Moyo nthawi zonse umachokera kwa munthu amene amawagwiritsa ntchito.
Xiao Kong sanali kugwiritsa ntchito makinawa kupanga zinthu zokhazikika, zomangira. Iye anali kupanga mbale yeniyeni ya Zakudyazi zomwe anali atafufuza kwa zaka zisanu. Iye ankalamulira nthawi yokanda, kuyang'anira kutsukidwa kwa mtanda, kusintha mphamvu yozungulira, ndi kulowetsa kumvetsetsa kwake mwatsatanetsatane. Kulondola kwa makinawo, kuphatikiza ndi kudzipereka kwa anthu, ndiko komwe kunapanga mphindi imeneyo ya chisangalalo chachikulu.
Pamene ndimachoka, ndinabwerera kuti ndikayang'ane shopu yaying'ono komaliza. Malo ogulitsira analibe kanthu, malo ake anali obisika. Koma ndinkadziwa kuti kumbuyo kwa chitseko chimenecho, mnyamata wina anali kupanga mbale yeniyeni ya udon m'njira "yopusa" komanso yanzeru kwambiri. Anali atadikira zaka zisanu kuti apeze makina oyenera, kenako anagwiritsa ntchito kudzipereka kwake kwa tsiku ndi tsiku kusintha kudikira kwa nthawi yayitali kukhala惊艳(chisangalalo chodabwitsa) chomwe chimapezeka m'mbale ya aliyense wodya.
Iyi si shopu "yodziwika pa intaneti".
Iyi ndi shopu yoyenera kudutsa theka la mzinda kuti mukachezere.
Zolemba
At HICOCA, takumana ndi anthu ambiri mumakampani opanga zakudya ndi zakumwa. Ena amathamangitsana mwachangu, akuyembekeza makina omwe ali achangu momwe angathere; ena amaika patsogolo mtengo, kufunafuna njira zotsika mtengo zomwe zilipo; enanso amafunafuna zosavuta, akufuna makina omwe "sangathe kulakwitsa" momwe angathere.
Koma takumananso ndi anthu ngati Xiao Kong.
Safuna chakudya chachangu, chotsika mtengo kwambiri, kapena chotsika mtengo kwambiri. Chomwe akufuna ndi kukoma "koyenera".
Makina athu a udon noodles anabadwira anthu otere. Ndi magawo 12 ozungulira omwe amafanana ndi kupanga zinthu ndi manja, magawo olondola olamulidwa mwanzeru, komanso mawonekedwe osavuta kugwiritsa ntchito—chisankho chilichonse cha kapangidwe kake sichinachitike kuti chilowe m'malo mwa luso, koma kuti maloto a katswiri alawe ndi anthu ambiri.
Ngati ndinu munthu wotero, ngati nanunso muli ndi mbale ya Zakudyazi zomwe mwakhala mukuyembekezera kwa nthawi yayitali kuti zikonzedwe bwino—takulandirani kuti mulankhule nafe.
Mwina chomwe mukuchiyembekezera si makina okha.
Mwina chomwe mukuyembekezera ndi mnzanu amene angathe kupereka mokhulupirika kudzipereka kwanu, kwathunthu, kwa aliyense wodya.
