Re gan mian (Simplified Chinese: 热干面; pinyin: rè gān miàn; lit. "hot dry noodle") is a typical breakfast fare of Wuhan, the capital of the Hubei province of central China. It is made of hand-pulled, wheat-based noodles over which soy sauce, sesame paste, pickled vegetables, chopped chives and rice vinegar are added. The noodles are mixed with the added ingredients just before consumption. It is very popular and is usually sold in bowls in breakfast restaurants or in boxes on carts along the streets of Wuhan.
Preparation
Using a large cone-shaped strainer, the noodles are lowered into a pot of boiling water. The noodles are stirred to make sure they are heated evenly, until cooked (approximately 30 seconds). The noodles are then strained with a few shakes and served in a bowl topped with peanut oil (or other kinds of vegetable oils, such as sesame oil), soy sauce, sesame paste, pickled vegetables, and chopped chives, with chili sauce and rice vinegar added to taste.
