Northwest lentil noodles, also known as gray bean noodles

Overview

Lentils are also called gray beans in the local area. The yield is very small and it is a local specialty. I have loved eating several bowls of it since I was a child. This hobby has become famous, so every time I go to my grandma's house, she makes them for me to eat. Now in Shanghai, as long as there are lentils that are not sold in my hometown, I can’t make noodles. I can only buy lentils online to save time on rolling out noodles and buy dumpling wrappers. . (You can also roll the dough by hand and cut it into diamond shapes.)

  5. If the dumpling skin is cut into the shape shown in the picture, is it called a rhombus or something? My family name is Qi Huazi, I don’t know how to write it. Or if you are a skilled pastry chef, you can roll and cut the noodles yourself. I came up with the dumpling wrappers myself, but they are a bit thin and not as flavorful as the hand-rolled noodles, and the flour on the hand-rolled noodles tastes better when added to the soup.

  8. This picture is easy to misunderstand. . I just want to say that you put a little hot oil into the lentil soup noodles, or add shredded green onions to the hot oil, and then pour it into the pot together for more flavor. . . This picture shows the side dishes for the noodles. It’s a bit too much for one person. The cold chives are a good accompaniment to the noodles!
