This robust texture is so rare for me! The scissor noodles are very strong, elastic and chewy when you bite into them because they are hand cut and the noodles are of varying thicknesses with slightly rough edges.

Ingredients

  • Medium Gluten Flour 250g
  • Water 105 grams
  • Oil 5 grams
  • Salt 1 gram

Instructions

  1. Put 250g of medium gluten flour, 5g of oil, 1g of salt and 105g of water into the main pan.

  9. Cut out all the shapes and mix them with flour to prevent them from sticking. After the dough is well kneaded and rises, the gluten network is well formed, which makes the noodles tougher.

  13. Drain. The edges of the scissor tops are irregular, but the overall surface is smooth, and a thin film of starch forms on the surface after cooking, adding to the smoothness.

  14. The rough surface of the noodles increases the contact area with the broth, making it easier for the flavors to penetrate.

  15. Hand-cut noodles can't be perfectly uniform, and this natural variation adds variety to the flavor instead. Each scissor noodle has a slightly different shape and thickness, so it tastes like a rich texture, with both strong and slightly soft parts.

  16. The texture of the Scissor Noodles combines the characteristics of robustness, smoothness, thickness, flavor and richness of layers, making it a very satisfying and warming noodle dish. Whether it is served with broth, braised, or a variety of vegetables and meats, Scissor Noodle demonstrates its unique flavor and texture appeal.

  17. I served it directly with Beef Tenderloin with Snow Vegetables and Spring Asparagus. The surface of the scissor noodles is smooth and you can still feel the smooth texture in your mouth, especially when it is moistened with the broth.
