Tips

The authentic Henan stewed noodles practice is to dry steam the noodles first. The recipe directly omits this step and steams the noodles with the heat of the dish instead, which allows all the flavors of the dish to seep into the noodles, making them more flavorful to eat.

How much water is very important, less will be too dry, more and too wet, to grasp the amount

Stewed noodles in the ingredients, each family has a different preference. Our family prefers bean curd and bean sprouts because they are not easy to cook.

Some of my friends like to put potatoes. It depends on personal preference.

Mom also used to make steamed noodles with watermelon rind, with the characteristic sweet flavor of watermelon, which is also very delicious!

Because the noodles are dry on the whole, you can make a soup to eat with them
