Sesame paste liangpi, a beloved Chinese cold noodle dish, delights with its chewy texture, bold flavors, and refreshing taste. Here’s a comprehensive guide to crafting this iconic dish at home.
Step 1: Prepare the Liangpi Batter
Mix 200g wheat flour with 150ml water, stirring until smooth. Strain the batter through a sieve to remove lumps, then let it rest for 30 minutes. Grease a heatproof dish, pour in the batter, and steam for 8–10 minutes until set. Cool completely, then slice the jelly-like sheet into long, thin strips.
Step 2: Make the Sesame Paste Sauce
In a bowl, combine 3 tbsp sesame paste, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp vinegar, 1 tsp sugar, 1 minced garlic clove, and a pinch of chili oil. Gradually add 2 tbsp hot water, stirring until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste—more vinegar for tanginess, more chili for heat.
Step 3: Assemble the Dish
Toss the liangpi strips with the sesame paste sauce until evenly coated. Top with cucumber shreds, bean sprouts, and crushed peanuts for crunch. Garnish with a drizzle of extra chili oil and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Chill for 10 minutes before serving. The combination of chewy noodles, rich sesame paste, and crisp vegetables makes for a perfect summer snack or light meal. Customize with your favorite toppings like shredded carrots or tofu for added flavor.
With simple steps and vibrant flavors, homemade sesame paste liangpi is sure to become a favorite!
