Scallion hand cakes

Overview

The hand pancakes made with semi-hot noodles are filled with a lot of chopped green onions. They are fragrant and crispy and are so delicious that you can’t stop eating them. You must remember to either use full-boiled noodles, which means all the boiling water is used to knead the dough, or use half-boiled noodles, that is, knead the dough with half boiling water and half cold water, and then mix the two together. Never use cold water to knead the noodles. If you eat them hot, they will become hard, which will affect the taste.
