Bean Noodles From Scratch
INGREDIENTS FOR THE MUNG BEAN JELLY (serves 2-3 people)
- 400 grams of mung beans
- 1/2 tsp of salt
- 1/3 tsp of alkali powder or baked baking soda
- Water
INGREDIENTS FOR THE DRESSING
- 10 cloves of garlic, press them through a garlic presser
- 1.5 tsp of salt
- 1 tsp of sugar
- 3-5 That bird eye chilies, optional
- 2 scallions diced
- 1 tbsp of diced cilantro stems
- 1/3 cup of cilantro leaves, reserved for garnish
- 1/2 tsp of five-spice powder
- 1 tbsp of chili flake
- 2.5 tsp of paprika
- 4 tbsp of vegetable oil
- 2.5 tbsp of Chinese black vinegar
- 1.5 tbsp of soy sauce
- 6 tbsp of water
- a drizzle of sesame oil
MAKE THE NOODLES
- Soak 400 grams of mung beans with clean water overnight. You can also use dried peas if you canβt find mung beans.
- Blender the soaked mung beans into a puree. transfer the puree into a cheesecloth. Rinse with water for 4-5 times or until the water comes out clean. Each time you will use about 1 liter of water.
- Collect all the start water into a big bowl. Let it sit for 3 hours or until all the starch has sunk to the bottom.
- Carefully pour out most of the top liquid. Leave all the starch at the bottom.
- Stir the starch mixture until well combined. Then we will weigh it. Mine is 989 grams so I will get a separate pot and measure out 511 grams of the top liquid that we poured out.
- Note: For 400 grams of mung beans, the starch mixture plus the extra topwater should be 1.5 kg in total.
- Add 1/2 tsp of salt and 1/3 tsp of alkali powder to the top liquid. Bring it to a slight simmer. Turn off the heat and pour the starch mixture into the hot liquid.
- Optionally, add 8-10 drops of food coloring to make it look green so it matches the color of fresh mung bean.
- Stir over low heat for 10-12 minutes or until all the liquid has thickened up. Transfer to a glass or ceramic container. Let it sit at room temperature for 5 hours.
MAKE THE DRESSING
- Press 10 cloves of garlic through a garlic presser. Add 1.5 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of sugar. Use the spoon to tap and press the garlic until it will become a sticky paste.
- Continue to add some diced red chilies, scallion, cilantro stems, 1/2 tsp of five-spice powder, 1 tbsp of chili flake, and 2.5 tsp of paprika.
- Heat up 4 tbsp of vegetable oil until it is lightly smoking. Pour it over the spices.
- Continue by adding 2.5 tbsp of Chinese black vinegar, 1.5 tbsp of soy sauce, and a drizzle of sesame oil. Give it a taste and dilute it with 4-6 tbsp of water. This dressing is enough for 4 servings of noodles.
- Once the mung bean jelly is set, cut it into cubes or shred it into noodles with a special shredder. Serve with the dressing and garnish with cilantro and crushed nuts.
