In reply to J Zhang. You definitely should double the recipe. The noodles are usually served as a small appetizer. If you're serving it as a main dish, you should prepare more.

Hi, I wanted to make this for some guests, totaling myself a woman and 4 very hungry men. They specifically only want to eat this for dinner without any other dishes. Can I really serve as the recipe suggests “6 servings” or more realistically should I double it? Based off the noodles alone it looks like a recipe for 2.5 people.

I am so enjoying your recipes, Maggie. Am fortunate to live in Hong Kong so easy for me to get ingredients but wonder if tahini would be a reasonable substitute for Chinese sesame paste, as I have a big jar in the fridge.

Great recipe! Delicious! Easy to fomlow. I didnt have pork but I made it with tempeh creating a vegan version of Dan Dan noodles. I used the same method as for cooking pork to replicate the crispy texture. I’m excited to make the szceshuan oil. Finally someone has a recipe with all the components to make a rich and complex oil.

This recipe is dope. I make this a few times a year (last night for example), and my family loves it. I fiddle with most recipes, but follow this one exactly as written. Maggie, I LOVE your recipes!

In reply to Mags. Sorry I don't have the gram measurement right now, but the ones I use are finely minced type that comes in the package. If you finely mince it, you should loosely pack it in the 1/2 cup. If you're not sure, start with less and you can always add a bit more if the pork doesn't taste salty enough.
