Guading Ma Shi Soup

Overview

When I was making this soup, someone was saying: What kind of soup are you making? I said; melon and sesame soup! He said, "Don't you stop eating melons at the beginning of autumn?" I glared at him, and he said again, "Oh!" I don’t want to eat watermelon...! It is a common pasta in the Guanzhong area of Shaanxi Province. It is cut into strips or dices with water dough, rolled into small rolls with your thumbs on a chopping board or patterned wall, cooked in boiling water, and eaten with vegetables of various flavors. There are two types of dried sesame seeds and soup. One is to cook the sesame seeds, drain them and pour the juice over them and mix well. It is called soy sauce dry sesame seeds. If it is stewed with fried vegetables, it is called braised sesame seeds. The one I made is called soup sesame seeds. The weather is getting colder, so eating a hot bowl of beef, melon and sesame soup is also a good choice!
