Chee Cheong Fun inward Kampar is a fleck different....
It is THICK together with FLAT amongst expert rice flavour.... non starchy, translucent, mucilaginous or elastic.
It is steamed amongst dried shrimp together with chinese chives (not saltation onions), although at that spot is the choice for evidently noodles.
It is served amongst an choice of at to the lowest degree v condiments of which includes Red Sweet Sauce, Curry, Chilli Sauce, Pickled Green Chilli together with Shrimp Paste... non counting the commons fossil oil together with soy sauce
Choices of condiments.. non compulsory to direct keep it all together |
There was once, I saw a stall inward USJ displaying "Kampar Chee Cheong Fun". Happily I went over together with said, i plate amongst Curry, Sweet Sauce together with Har Kou. The lady looked at me... weird face. She showed me, her sauces....Brown sweetness sauce together with chilli sauce ONLY!
Blehhhhhhhhhhhhhh... Klang valley sauces leh! I asked her, why did she display the elevate Kampar CCF since there's no Kampar condiments.. she said it's made past times a Kampar fella! I don't know whether should I express joy or cry. I canceled my order. Later I saw the CCF is the sparse type that I suspect is majority produced
You tin simply drizzle "cooked" fossil oil together with soy sauce over this. I love mine amongst minimal seasonings. |
In Kampar, some exercise sell the sparse type of CCF, I intend that is manufacturing industrial plant life made together with they simply resell it. Hawkers who made it from scratch, yes, nosotros Kamparians love such hawkers, ever makes it thick. During my teenage years, at that spot were at to the lowest degree iv CCF hawkers who made it from scratch. The i at marketplace adjacent to the famous Hum Dan Fun, Ming Kee (the human being on the wheel amongst a straw hat, together with the married adult woman who pushes a trolley simply about Aston Settlement amongst an fifty-fifty bigger straw hat), Ah Ngan together with Keng Yew (Both of them rotate betwixt ACS secondary schoolhouse together with Princess theater). All these stalls serve their homemade thick CCF amongst the same condiments. All lovely together with tasty!
Nowadays... it's left to simply iii if I'm non mistaken. Don't count Hong Kong CCF.
or direct keep it amongst EVERYTHING. It's ever your choice |
Like most Kampar food, nosotros love curry amongst it. Some stalls serve a evidently curry sauce, some add together long beans together with puffy pork rind ( 猪皮Chu Pei) ,flat tofu puffs together with some boil the fishballs, fishcakes inward the curry to flavour it. But no affair what, it's a mild curry sauce that is delicious. Fried fishballs, stuffed beancurd skins together with all kind of fried fishcakes are options to add together on. And i tin ever simply direct keep the noodles without anything else.
This type of CCF is non eaten fresh from the steamer, but best left simply about for a few hours. The texture firms upwards to a meliorate together with 'cleaner' mouthfeel. Fresh thick CCF volition live mushy together with sticky. Now if you've eaten Ming Kee's CCF inward the forenoon sold past times the hubby on the wheel together with and thence after inward the afternoon simply about 4pm, you lot swallow the ones sold past times the married adult woman amongst the trolley.. you lot volition totally sense of savor the difference. I totally love the wife's of which doesn't sense of savor that soft. But together with thence again, it's a affair of personal taste.
For my attempt.. I tried it amongst ii brands of flour. Alagappas together with Erawan.
If you lot can't hold back together with desire to swallow it soon, together with thence purpose Alagappas.
If you lot tin wait, together with thence you lot tin purpose Erawan.
Of if you lot direct keep a bundle of quondam rice flour, meliorate still, purpose that. From what I heard from my noodle making friend, quondam rice is ever preferred for noodle making because the texture is less mushy together with sticky.
Although you lot mightiness live using the same build of rice flour, if the expire engagement is far (like 18months away), the texture mightiness non live the same every bit the i that is nigh expiry. It happened to me when I made Pak Tong Gou. Old rice flour did sense of savor better.
And I didn't purpose a textile to steam it. It cannot live steamed at nowadays on the pan since nosotros demand the chives to live seen... I improvised it with... baking paper!
