a great vicotry today

great victory = people says your cooking is great. Hahahahahaha today i made 凉面 noddle with some cold sauce. It was another dish from taiwan that i miss alot. both my grandfather and father says it's nice. my grandfather is a cook somemore. the link i found the recipe is from http://meishi.88838.com/. i normally looked up on chinese website for recipes unles i looking for pastas or other country cuisine. the most importnat material is the sesame sauce which they do not sell. i ask the dried store uncle for sesame sauce, he ask me go home grind myslef... argh.... almost wanted to punch him.
Firstly, you buy the white sesame seed. If you got the time try to dry the seed more. if not just blend it using multi purpose blender to GRIND the seed. however the grinder doesn't seem to work very well . the oil from the sesame oil sick the whole paste onto the side of the container and the grinder cannot reach. i keep knocking form the outside hoping the paste will fall into the grinding knife but it was too sticky. so just try your best.
after that pour the paste into a pot and pour OIL into the your paste just when it covers up the paste. now cook it under small fire anmd stir constantly or non-stop or else the paste will chao da. when the paste turns into light brown or you see it boiling then it can be used. Use water to spread out the paste evenly. Add soya sauce, vinegar, chopped garlic, sesame oil and some sugar. It taste normal by tiself. but it blends totally well with the noodle.
you can decorate with thin slices of the small cucumber and ham.
