Learn to prepare Beijing-style handmade noodles topped with flavorful Zhajiang (soybean paste) sauce. Want to master the art of hand-pulled noodles? Join this immersive class and learn traditional noodle-making techniques that symbolize longevity and prosperity. You’ll knead, roll, and cut dough by hand, exploring how simple ingredients—flour, water, and salt—transform into silky strands perfect for soup or stir-fry. Then we make Zhajiang Noodles with pork, veggie and sauce. Celebrate the cultural meaning of noodles in birthdays and festivals while creating your own bowl of happiness from scratch. *A $20 materials fee is due to the instructor at the beginning of the workshop.
