Yangchun Noodles
A simple, comforting bowl of noodles served in a savory broth enriched with homemade scallion oil.
Histoire
The process begins by rendering pork fat to make a rich lard, which is then used to fry green onions until golden and aromatic. This fragrant scallion oil forms the soul of the dish, coating the delicate noodles in a warm, savory broth that is finished with fresh garlic chives.
