Late Night Spicy Sesame Noodles
I had some wine and made some noodles.
I'm not sure why I made a video of it though. This is what happens when I cook at midnight.
Oh, uh in the sauce is chili oil, Sichuan peppercorn, peanuts, soy sauce, chinkiang vinegar, tahini, garlic, scallions, cilantro, sugar.
Noodles are spaghetti cooked in water w/ some baking soda to give them a bouncier texture and alkaline noodle flavor.
OK, I re-made this sober and measured out a basic recipe. It's a version of liang mian, Chinese sesame noodles. If you want to make it tastier, make the chili oil yourself or infuse the oil with the Sichuan peppercorn. This is just the quick and dirty version.
Serves 1
4 ounces spaghetti or cappelini
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
salt
1 teaspoon sichuan peppercorn
1/4 cup peanuts (roast them if you prefer)
1 medium clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons sesame paste (like tahini)
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Chinkiang vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons Chiu Chow Chili oil
small handful sliced scallions and cilantro
1. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add baking soda and a large pinch of salt. Add pasta. (It might not fit initisally, let is soften a bit then push it all under). Cook until al dente, stirring occasionally.
2. Meanwhile grind Sichuan peppercorns in a mortar and pestle. Add peanuts and pound to crush. Set aside.
3. In a medium bowl, combine garlic, sesame paste, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and chili oil, most of scallions and cilantro.
4. When noodles are cooked, transfer them to the bowl using tongs. Stir to sauce them, adding a few splashes of the cooking water until the sauce has a nice loose consistency.
5. Transfer to a bowl, top with remaining cilantro and scallions, and eat.
6. Sleep well.

Chilled Sesame Noodles
Ingredients
1 tablespoon neutral-flavored oil
12 ounces thin flour “yangchun noodles”, Chinese egg noodles, or other thin egg noodle
1/2 cup Chinese sesame paste
1 block furu (fermented tofu), from 13-ounce jar
4 1/2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
1/4 cup light soy sauce
3 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons Chinese black vinegar
1/2 tablespoon dark soy sauce
1/2 tablespoon Sichuan peppercorn oil
1/2 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon mayonnaise, preferably Kewpie
1/4 cup water (about)
Sliced scallions, for serving
Chile oil, for serving
Toasted sesame seeds, coarsely ground using a mortar and pestle, for serving
1. In a small skillet, heat the oil just until it begins to shimmer. Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool. Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Drain and toss with the oil in the medium bowl or on a small rimmed baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate until cold.
2. In a small bowl, whisk the sesame paste and furu until smooth. Add the sesame oil, light soy sauce, sugar, black vinegar, dark soy sauce, Sichuan peppercorn oil, and salt and whisk until smooth. Whisk in the mayonnaise and then whisk in enough of the water until a thin creamy, silky sauce forms.
3. Divide the noodles among bowls; drizzle the sesame sauce on top. Garnish with the scallions, chile oil, and sesame seeds.
