百善硬面(mian)大卷(juan)不(bu)同于一(yi)般的(de)(de)大卷(juan)。首先(xian)是它的(de)(de)“硬”;用手按(an)不(bu)出凹坑,攥在拳中不(bu)變形(xing)(xing),像(xiang)磚頭塊似的(de)(de)。再者是“大”:正宗(zong)的(de)(de)大卷(juan)一(yi)般長(chang)7厘米(mi),寬3厘米(mi),高 15厘米(mi),一(yi)個足有四兩多。其次是它的(de)(de)形(xing)(xing)狀:上方(fang)為(wei)橋拱(gong)圓弧(hu)形(xing)(xing),下邊為(wei)四方(fang)形(xing)(xing)。
硬(ying)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)大(da)(da)(da)(da)卷(juan)的制作(zuo)工藝相(xiang)當繁雜。往年沒有(you)(you)磨(mo)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)機(ji),石磨(mo)推出(chu)的小(xiao)麥面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)粉(fen)(fen),頭(tou)(tou)破面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)要(yao)用(yong)銅絲羅二遍,使面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)粉(fen)(fen)又白又細(xi),做出(chu)的大(da)(da)(da)(da)卷(juan)才(cai)能光(guang)亮不(bu)走形(xing)。當天(tian)早上能上市的大(da)(da)(da)(da)卷(juan),頭(tou)(tou)天(tian)晚(wan)上就要(yao)開(kai)始(shi)和發面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian),凌晨2點就得起床開(kai)始(shi)顫(zhan)(zhan)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)。顫(zhan)(zhan)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)時(shi)撒(sa)一(yi)(yi)層干面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian),把(ba)(ba)干面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)顫(zhan)(zhan)進發面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)后(hou),再撒(sa)一(yi)(yi)層干面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian),再繼續顫(zhan)(zhan)。這(zhe)樣要(yao)反復(fu)六(liu)七遍,直至把(ba)(ba)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)顫(zhan)(zhan)得提起來不(bu)下(xia)(xia)墜,放(fang)下(xia)(xia)來不(bu)走形(xing)為止。顫(zhan)(zhan)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)費工費時(shi),勞動(dong)強度大(da)(da)(da)(da),又要(yao)把(ba)(ba)握面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)的干濕軟硬(ying)程度,是(shi)制作(zuo)硬(ying)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)大(da)(da)(da)(da)卷(juan)的關鍵技(ji)巧。為減輕雙手顫(zhan)(zhan)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)的勞動(dong)強度,有(you)(you)人發明了在面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)案一(yi)(yi)頭(tou)(tou)栓根木棒(bang)(bang),把(ba)(ba)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)放(fang)在棒(bang)(bang)下(xia)(xia),用(yong)雙手壓木棒(bang)(bang)顫(zhan)(zhan)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)的技(ji)巧。顫(zhan)(zhan)面(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)(mian)工序完成后(hou),接著(zhu)要(yao)做出(chu)一(yi)(yi)排(pai)(pai)排(pai)(pai)上圓(yuan)下(xia)(xia)方的“饃(mo)基子”,用(yong)鋒利(li)的菜(cai)刀快速切出(chu)個(ge)頭(tou)(tou)均勻的大(da)(da)(da)(da)卷(juan)。大(da)(da)(da)(da)卷(juan)入鍋幾分鐘后(hou),要(yao)開(kai)鍋蓋查看,發現走形(xing)的要(yao)及早整(zheng)形(xing),然后(hou)燒旺火,一(yi)(yi)氣呵成。
