Method

  1. 1 Roast the peanuts and then grind them with a little warm water to make smooth peanut butter.
  2. 2 Mix peanut butter with soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and warm water to make a runny sauce.
  3. 3 Boil fresh noodles for 3 minutes, then rinse with cold water and mix with a little oil to prevent them from sticking together.
  4. 4 The noodles must be rinsed and cooled completely; warm noodles will cause the peanut butter sauce to separate and clump together.
  5. 5 Mix the cold noodles with the sauce and let them chill for 10 minutes so the sauce coats them evenly.
  6. 6 Sprinkle with shredded cucumber, chili oil, minced garlic, and chopped scallions when serving.
