Material

Main ingredients: top-grade peas; Ingredients: coriander, ginger, garlic, vinegar, sweet soy sauce, salty soy sauce, sesame oil, pepper oil, MSG, salt, pepper powder, and red chili oil.

Preparation method

(1) Flour making: Wash the dried peas, dry them in the sun, grind them into bean paste, remove the skin, grind them into powder, sieve out the fine flour, put it into a basin, add clean water (2,000 ml), stir into a paste, and add salt. Put the pot on the fire, add water, and when the water temperature reaches about 40 degrees Celsius, slowly pour in the pea paste, and use a shovel to stir the bottom of the pot while pouring, turn out the rice crust (which is also solidified by heat) to prevent the bottom from sticking, until it is thick. When the pot is half full of paste, pour it into a clay pot, cool it and solidify it, then turn it over on a wooden board and cover it with wet gauze.

(2) Mix the seasonings: Wash and chop the coriander into small pieces and put them into a bowl. Peel the ginger and garlic and chop them into paste. Put them into separate bowls and add cold boiled water to make ginger juice and garlic juice. Put the other seasonings into 1 bowl each.

(3) Serving: Cut the pea flour into thin strips and put them into a bowl (the traditional method is to cut a piece and put it in the left palm, then use the knife in the right hand to beat the pea flour in the left palm into thin strips and put it into the bowl as you beat it). According to the taste requirements of the diners, use a small wooden spoon to scoop various seasonings into the bowl, mix well and serve.
