TAKEOUT-STYLE SESAME NOODLES



Takeout-Style Sesame Noodles image

Noodles dressed with sesame are popular in many parts of China, but this particular style, made with peanut butter and served cold, became a Chinese-American staple in the United States in the 1970s. The family of Shorty Tang - an ambitious restaurateur who emigrated from Sichuan to Taipei to New York - firmly believes that he invented the dish and still serve it at Hwa Yuan, the restaurant he opened in 1967 in Manhattan's Chinatown. They have never divulged the exact recipe; this is our own lush but refreshing version.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 2h15m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup oats
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 cups boiling water
1 (2 1/4 teaspoon) package dry yeast
1/3 cup warm water (100F to 110F )
1/4 cup flax seed meal
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
cooking spray
1 teaspoon water
1 egg
1 tablespoon oats
1 tablespoon poppy seed
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Combine the first 4 ingredients in a large bowl, and add 2 cups boiling water, stirring until well blended. Cool to room temperature.
  • Dissolve yeast in 1/3 cup warm water in a small bowl; let stand 5 minutes.
  • Add yeast mixture to oats mixture; stir well.
  • Stir in flaxseed meal.
  • Gradually add 3 cups whole wheat flour and 1 cup all-purpose flour to oats mixture; stir until a soft dough forms.
  • Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 8 minutes); add enough of remaining all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, to prevent dough from sticking to hands (dough will feel tacky).
  • Place dough in a large bowl coated with cooking spray, turning to coat top. Cover and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, 1 hour or until doubled in size.
  • Punch dough down, and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Divide dough in half; cut each half into 12 equal portions.
  • Working with one portion at a time (cover remaining dough to prevent from drying), shape each portion into an 8-inch rope. Tie each rope into a single knot; tuck top end of rope under bottom edge of roll.
  • Place each roll on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
  • Cover with plastic wrap coated with cooking spray; let rise in a warm place (85F), free from drafts, for 30 minutes or until doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Combine 1 teaspoon water and egg in a small bowl; brush egg mixture over rolls.
  • Combine 1 tablespoon oats, poppy seeds, and sesame seeds; sprinkle evenly over rolls.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until golden.
  • Cool on wire racks.

Tips:

  • Activate the yeast properly: Proof the yeast in warm water with a little sugar to ensure it's active and ready to use.
  • Knead the dough well: Kneading helps develop the gluten in the dough, resulting in a chewy and elastic texture.
  • Let the dough rise twice: The first rise allows the yeast to ferment and produce gas, while the second rise helps the dough to become light and fluffy.
  • Use a sesame oil glaze: Brushing the knots with sesame oil before baking gives them a golden brown color and a delicious flavor.
  • Bake the knots until golden brown: Keep an eye on the knots while they're baking to ensure they don't overcook and become dry.

Conclusion:

Sesame knots are a delicious and versatile snack or appetizer that can be enjoyed on any occasion. With their soft and chewy texture, delicate sesame flavor, and simple ingredients, these knots are sure to be a hit with everyone. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a beginner in the kitchen, this recipe provides all the necessary steps and tips to create perfect sesame knots every time. So why wait?
