Fresh shrimps and slivers

Overview

It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten pulled strips. I suddenly got cravings today, so I kneaded some noodles to make them. The pulled strips taste smooth and chewy. They have a different texture than the dry noodles and wet noodles bought in the market. They are also much more flexible than hand-rolled noodles. The method of pulling strips is very simple, as long as you know how to knead them. Just make noodles. The main thing is kneading and waking up the noodles. There is no other difficulty. Friends who like to eat noodles can try this method. It will be very convenient to eat noodles in the future. As the weather gets colder, you can knead the noodles one night in advance and you can have hot noodles the next morning.

  3. Knead the flour into dough. The dough will not be smooth at first. It doesn't matter. Knead for a while and then stop. Kneading will increase the gluten of the flour. Cover with plastic wrap and let it rest for ten minutes.

  4. Knead the dough again after ten minutes and fold the dough repeatedly. The dough will gradually become smooth. Then wrap it in plastic wrap again and let it rest for about half an hour.

  5. After half an hour, take out the dough again, apply a layer of oil on the cutting board in advance, and knead the dough smooth again. The dough at this time is very delicate.

  7. Knead each small noodle into a long strip. Apply a little oil on your hands when kneading, and then plate the noodles in circles. The thickness of the noodles should be as uniform as possible. Pour some oil on the noodles to prevent adhesion and prevent the surface of the noodles from drying out. Let the noodles rest for more than three hours. The longer they are left, the better they will be in the end.

  9. Add an appropriate amount of water to the pot and bring to a boil. After the water boils, pull the soaked noodles into the pot. When pulling the noodles, the force should be even. After the noodles have been rested for a long time and enough kneading, the gluten has been fully stretched. The toughness of the dough is particularly easy to boil. You can stretch the noodles as long as you like. If you like it thinner, make it thinner. If you like it thicker, make it thicker.
