Classic Dan Dan Noodles
"Addicted as I am to Mr. Xie's Dan Dan noodles, I have to admit that this classic recipe is also glorious. As with the other version, it serves two people, either in one big bowl to share, or in two separate bowls. If you wish, you can blanch a handful of leafy greens in the noodle cooking water and add to the bowl, as shown in the photograph...."
