Julia Uehren shares vegetarian Szechuan noodle recipe

Recipe developer Julia Uehren has introduced a vegetarian variation of the Chinese street food classic, Dan Dan Noodles. This version replaces the traditional minced meat with a combination of shiitake and brown mushrooms to provide a savory umami flavor.

The dish features a complex flavor profile driven by Szechuan pepper, which creates a tingling sensation on the tongue. Other key ingredients include garlic, ginger, crispy chili oil, tahini paste, soy sauce, and hoisin sauce. The meal is completed with toppings of roasted peanuts and fresh spring onions.
