Dan Dan Noodles for Heather

I have had a request to publish my recipe for Dan Dan Noodles. I made this a long time ago and one of my daughter's best friends remembers it and liked it. I told her I gave up making it because so many people are allergic to peanuts. So here's my recipe for you, Heather.


Ingredients:
1 cup beef stock
4 peppercorns
1/2 green onion sliced
1 Tbsp hot bean sauce
2 Tbsp grated fresh ginger
4 cloves of  garlic diced
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp sesame oil
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
8 oz spaghetti noodles cooked al dente
1/2 cup chopped peanuts
3 scallions sliced lengthwise

Preparation:
Mix all of the ingredients in food processor blend until you get a creamy paste.Toss noodles with paste and garnish with peanuts and scallions.

  2. Mel, I'm going to attempt to make this soy free, gluten free and peanut free! I have a craving!!! Gabbie, I'm pretty well versed in Asian ingredients, but I'm not familiar with Hot bean sauce. I'll have to check that out!
