About This Recipe

Perfectly al dente noodles are tossed in a savory scallion oil infused with lard for extra depth, creating a dish that’s both comforting and irresistible.

A quick mix of seasonings enhances the sauce, coating each noodle strand for maximum flavor. The optional lard adds a luxurious richness, while keeping the noodles slightly crunchy ensures the ideal texture. Bonus: leftover scallion oil can be stored and used to elevate other dishes!
