Overview

Steamed Braised Noodles is a specialty staple food in Henan. It is loved by everyone and one of the staple foods that appears frequently on the dining table. The main thing is to choose thin noodles, and the side dishes are based on your preference, such as bean sprouts, beans, celery, etc., and the meat can also be pork belly or front leg meat. Today I made steamed braised noodles with green beans. After the noodles are cooked, they become chewier and more fragrant. ...Haha.
