Important Notes

⚠️

For Chili Oil Noodles, heat the peanut oil to approximately 350°F (175°C) for optimal blooming of the chili flakes and aromatics.

⚠️

When mincing garlic for the chili oil, avoid making it too fine to prevent a bitter taste from the hot oil.

⚠️

For Creamy Sesame Noodles, use a creamy and smooth peanut butter for the best sauce texture; avoid crunchy or organic varieties with separated oils.

⚠️

Noodle water is crucial for both sauces as it helps create a homogeneous and clinging sauce. Always reserve some before draining the noodles.

⚠️

Garnish green onions can be sliced thinly at a steep angle and briefly soaked in ice water to make them curl beautifully for presentation.
