"Do u know what these are
.
It might sound weird but they are quite a treat in Chinese culture
They are called the Cat's ear noodles (貓耳朵) A kind of pasta made resembling the shape of cat's ear to maximize the surface area to take up more sauces. It is very similar to the Italian orecchiette.
To have a much more healthier diet, I made these noodles with my cultured sourdough starter and wholewheat flour.
Ingredients
115g sourdough starter
195g whole wheat flour
3 egg yolks
8g vegetable oil
pinch of salt
Method
Knead all ingredients to form a smooth dough. Rest in fridge overnight. Roll out into 3mm thickness. Cut into smaller pieces and use the thumbs to smear them one at a time sideway forming a little curve disc. Dada.... the noodles are ready for cooking
It's always fun working in the kitchen and adding varieties in daily meals. Do give it a go
