  6. Make ready 1/2 ●Bamboo shoot (boiled)
  7. Take 80 grams after rehydrated ●Dried shiitake mushrooms
  8. Take 2 to 3 (if using fresh shiitake mushrooms)
  9. Prepare 1 clove Garlic
  10. Prepare 4 tbsp Tianmianjiang - Chinese sweet bean and flour sauce
  11. Take 1 tsp Doubanjiang
  12. Get 4 tbsp Soy sauce
  13. Prepare 4 tbsp Sugar
  14. Take 4 tbsp Shaoxing wine (or Japanese sake)
  15. Get 160 ml Chicken stock
  16. Prepare 1 pinch Pepper
  17. Prepare 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons Katakuriko
  18. Take 2 tbsp Sesame oil
  19. Take 1 tbsp Ra-yu (if you like it spicy)

Heat a tablespoon oil in your wok over medium heat and add the pork fat (if using). In a pot, heat up the oil over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft and fragrant. Add the pork and cook, breaking up, until no longer pink.

Steps to make A Perfected Recipe for Zhajiangmian:
  1. Cut the cucumbers into thin strips. Soak the shredded Japanese green onions in water and cover with plastic wrap. Place both in the refrigerator.
  2. Roughly mince the ● marked ingredients (about 5-7 mm). Remove the green shoot-like core from the garlic before mincing finely. Measure out the other ingredients so that everything is ready to use.
  3. Add the oil to a pan and before oil becomes too hot, add the garlic and doubanjiang. (If you are using a wok, coat the pan with oil then add about 1 tablespoon of oil with garlic and doubanjiang.) Heat the seasoning through over low to medium heat.
  4. When garlic and douban jiang are flagrant, add the meat. Do not separate the meat right away. Wait a little bit before breaking up the meat (it tastes better that way) while cooking over low to medium heat.
  5. When the meat is separated and almost cooked through, add the bamboo shoots (over medium to high heat).
  6. When the bamboo shoots are coated with oil, add the tianmianjiang, minced green onions, and sake. Then, pour in the chicken soup (if you are using a wok, pour the liquid in around the edges).
  7. Add the sugar and soy sauce. Add the shiitake mushrooms and simmer for a short while.
  8. Season with pepper and add the katakuriko slurry. Do not add the slurry at once. Add it in 2-3 separate portions while stirring vigorously.
  9. When the sauce is thickened and heated through, turn off the heat and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. (if you like it spicy, add 1 tablespoon of ra-yu).
  10. Cook the noodles. This dish will taste best if you can finish cooking the noodles and the sauce at the same time. Once the noodles are cooked, rinse them under cold water to remove any excess starchiness. Drain well and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of sesame oil to coat the noodles.
  11. Plate the noodles and pour on the sauce. Arrange the cucumbers and shredded Japanese leeks. (Drain and pat them dry after washing.)

Add the shallots and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft and fragrant. Add the pork and cook, breaking up, until no longer pink.
