Noodle Legend Dan Dan Noodles

Traditionally, this Chinese dish was carried by street food hawkers in 2 baskets suspended on a bamboo pole (called a dan), which is where the dish gets its name. The key flavour is Sichuan pepper which is popular for its fabulous citrus flavour and tingling effect on the tongue which becomes surprisingly addictive the more you eat!

To make this recipe, you'll need:

BADIAN BLEND: ½ tsp

LA JIAO BLEND: 1 tsp

MA LA BLEND: 1 tsp

ZHIMA BLEND: tsp

We had Dan Dan Noodles tonight and I must say they make a perfect midweek meal. We loved the tingling heat of the sauce. It was perfectly filling and with a little prep super-quick to pull together for our evening meal. We loved the way how the different flavours came through and then naturally mixed together as we ate. Thank you guys. This was super tasty and surprisingly filling. What's not to love?
