I’m so glad your first batch turned out beautifully. Your method sounds perfectly practical too. Handmade noodles get easier and more fun with practice.

Never made hand-made noodles before. Your recipe and work pattern really took the mystery out of the process. First batch, came out beautifully. Made one alternation: rolled out the dough to the length I wanted first, then picked up and dropped them in the water. Maybe one day I’ll be brave enough to try your method.
Thanks again.

Totally understand your frustration, Jeffery. I’ve never seen Peng Hui/蓬灰 outside China and it’s hard to find in China too. The modern alternative is called La Mian Ji/拉面剂 which you can find on some online shopping platforms. I’ve no knowledge on importing though.

I’d love to make la mien noodles and find it impossible to find peng hui. It doesn’t seem we can buy in the US, and I’m wondering if there are specialty vendors that sell it or if I need to go to China to buy it. Would I even be allowed to import it? Thanks for any insight you can provide!

Jeff

That’s such a fun reason to end up here! Sounds like your characters (and you!) are in for a delicious time. Happy pulling!

I’m writing a fanfiction about a book set in ancient cultivation world China, and the main character of the fanfiction is a transmigrator who likes hand pulled noodles. So I’m having an OC and disciple of the main character teach another main character how to make them while the main character is half paralyzed temporarily.
Anyways, I now want to make hand pulled noodles, so maybe I’ll make some tomorrow.
