Noodle paste mainly relies on the soup base to enhance the umami taste of the noodle paste, so the preparation of the soup base is the key to making the noodle paste. Quanzhou is close to the seaside and is very rich in seafood. Local residents use shrimp, oysters, mussels and other seafood to make soup base.

After the base soup is finished cooking, you can prepare the ingredients.
The ingredients of noodle paste are very rich, including dried mushrooms, scallops, dried squid, lean meat, shrimps, large intestine, small intestine, pork liver, duck heart, tofu, braised eggs, sausages, etc. However, these ingredients need to be processed in advance, and the dry goods need to be soaked in water in advance. Large intestine, liver and pork need to be sliced, soaked in cooking wine to remove part of the fishy smell, and marinated in advance. After the ingredients are prepared, you can make the noodle paste.
After all the preparations are done, you can make the noodle paste. Put an appropriate amount of lard or vegetable oil into the pot, put the onion, ginger and garlic into the oil pot and sauté until fragrant, then add the base soup. After the soup base is boiled, you can add the pre-soaked mushrooms, scallops, sausages and other ingredients. After these ingredients are cooked, add the noodles and use chopsticks to break up the noodles. After boiling for a while, add the oysters that Fujian people like to eat.
