Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Applying the 'soy sauce blooming' technique—sautéing soy sauce in hot oil—brings deep, a deeper roasted aroma even to store-bought broth.
  • Peanut butter does not dissolve in cold broth, so always dissolve it in warm water before use to ensure a smooth, creamy sauce.
  • If store-bought cold noodle broth is unavailable, create a quick substitute by mixing 3 teaspoons sugar, 5 teaspoons vinegar, 2 teaspoons soy sauce, and either beef or chicken bouillon powder in 200ml water, then bring to a boil.

Recommended for

  • Those seeking a refreshing, unique noodle dish with a rich, savory-sweet profile in summer.
  • Fans who want to elevate store-bought cold noodle broth to a gourmet Chinese restaurant quality.
