Dandan are wooden buckets, one on each end of a pole
carried across the shoulders, from which vendors used to
sell this snack in the streets of Chengdu.
1/2 pound Chinese flat wheat noodles, or linguine
2 tablespoons tahini, or peanut butter
1 tablespoon ground Szechuan red peppercorn
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons Chinese or white vinegar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon crushed roasted peanuts
Boil the noodles. Meanwhile, combine the tahini, Szechuan
pepper, garlic, sugar, vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame oil. When the
noodles are done, drain and toss them with the tahini
mixture. Sprinkle the peanuts on top before serving.

but some time complex will be ok.whatever simple or complex.it have some attractivation will be ok.

Oh, I love this dish too. I remember when my husband and I were in college with $20 a week to spare, we'd end up eating at a Chinese buffet place nearby and fill up on Spicy peanut noodles. Sometimes I'd be so full to even make it to class, so I'd end up taking a nap instead. Oops.
 
This is a favorite of ours too. I make a different version of it. I have saved your recipe and will try that.

This sounds wonderful!!!! I have some buckwheat noodles that I will use with this - thanks for the recipe!!!!!!

gobo - do you like spicy foods? If you take some olive oil (say 1 cup) and add about 2 TBS dried chili flakes - heat it, cool it, keep it in a jar. Anytime you want to use it (it can be kept in your cabinets out of sunlight and heat) just shake it or stir it and use it on pasta. You can add some shrimp, or scallops, or slices of London Broil or just top with some fresh Parmesan cheese.
 
3 cup chicken - authentic taiwanese dish

1 or 2 chicken breast thats all in differnt pieces
some corn starch
1/3 cup rice wine
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup soy sauce
some thai basil

ok so preparation - take the chicken pieces and massage them with only a little corn starch
in a cup stir the sugar, soy sauce, and rice wine until everything is together

now cooking - take wok or w/e pan u have --> little oil --> add in chicken stir around on medium heat --> once chicken is almost done add in the cup of stirred mixture --> let it cook until it becomes like a saucish consistency {add red chilli if desired} --> add in thai basil and just stir around as soon as you turn off the heat.

Thank you River Li. I love these noodles. There was a fantastic restaurant where I used to live that served these. Their's were very very spicy and they garnished them with cucumber. My oldest daughter would drive miles and miles just to come get them! I'll have to send her your recipe!:LOL:
