Shiitake Pork Sauce Noodles

Name: Shiitake Pork Sauce Noodles
Total time: 10 min
Ingredients: 1 cup flour; 2 heads bok choy

I'm a southern kid who loves wheat-based foods. As far back as I can remember, there was always a noodle dish on the table at my home every single day. After I started working, I barely had the chance to eat them anymore, and my nostalgia for wheat-based dishes only grew stronger. The weekend is finally here, so I’m going to make my own hand-pulled noodles, right? After all, I have meat sauce ready to go! (^o^)/~

bok choy 2 heads

Instructions

Mix Flour and Water into Flocculent Clumps

Add a small amount of water to the flour, and stir with chopsticks until it forms flaky, clumped pieces.

Knead the Dough into a 'Three-Light' Dough

Knead the mixture by hand into a 'three-light' dough, a traditional Chinese cooking term for dough that does not stick to your hands, the work surface, or itself during preparation.

Prepare Work Surface and Flatten Dough

Sprinkle a small amount of dry flour on the work surface, place the dough on top, and press it flat with your hands.

Roll and Cut Dough into Noodle Strips

Roll the dough out into as thin a sheet as possible with a rolling pin. Cut it into strips with a knife; cut thinner strips for thin noodles, or thicker strips for thick noodles, to match your preference.

Cut Leftover Dough Scraps into Noodle Pieces

Cut the leftover edge scraps into uniformly sized noodle pieces, as shown in the reference image. I got too carried away with cutting and forgot to take a photo, oops (╯□╰)o.

Blanch Green Vegetables

Place a pot on the stove, add an appropriate amount of water, and bring to a boil. First, add the washed green vegetables and blanch until soft, then remove and set aside.

Cook Noodles and Assemble the Dish

Then cook the noodles. Homemade hand-rolled noodles have a chewier texture, so you can boil them for a slightly longer time. Once cooked, drain and serve with the blanched green vegetables, mushroom meat sauce [refer to the Homemade Mushroom Meat Sauce recipe for preparation steps], salt, and chicken bouillon.
