Share:
Ingredients
- 200 g alkaline noodles , light yellow ones (either dried or fresh ones)
- 2 tbsp. sesame oil
Garlic water
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 tbsp. warm water
Sesame paste
- 2 tbsp. sesame paste
- 1 tbsp. sesame oil
- 1 tbsp. light soy sauce
- 1 tbsp. dark soy sauce
- 4 tbsp. warm water
- 1/8 tsp. Chinese five spice powder
- small pinch of salt
Serve with
- pickled radish
- green onion
- sugar
- vinegar optional
- Chinese chili oil I use my homemade version
Instructions
- Cook the dried noodles for 4-5 minutes or fresh ones for 3-4 minutes. Transfer out and drain.
- Place the noodles to a clean operating board, add sesame oil and combine well. This process can cool down the noodles quickly and creating a chewy texture. Set aside to cool down completely.
Tune sesame paste
- In a large bowl, first mix 2 tablespoons of sesame paste with 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Stir until well combined. And then add light soy sauce and dark soy sauce, continue stirring in one direction until well combined. Add around 4-5 tablespoons of warm water by three batches. Each time after adding water, stir in one direction until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add Chinese five spice and a small pinch of salt based on personal taste. Combine well.
Other serving ingredients
- Mince green onion and chop the pickled radishes. You can also add smashed peanuts, pickled green beans or other toppings.
Garlic water
- Smashed 2 garlic cloves and then soak with warm water.
Assemble the noodles
- Bring water to boil in a large pot, and re-cook the noodles for around 10 -15 seconds until hot. Shake off extra water and transfer to serving bowl.
- Add around 2 tablespoons of tuned sesame paste mixture, 1/4 teaspoon vinegar (optional), 1 teaspoon garlic water, 1/8 teaspoon sugar and 2 teaspoons of chili oil. Top with green onion and pickled radish.
- Combine well before enjoying.
Notes
- As we do not add salt directly in the noodles, it is pre-added in sesame paste. However since soy sauce has salinity, only a small amount is needed.
- You can boil a larger amount of noodles and cool down for later recipes.
