Chinese name: (hu m sh)
Style: Shaanxi Cuisine
Characteristics: It is characterized by rich ingredients and its
colorful appearance. The pasta is soft yet firm while the
sauce has a deep and fresh flavor.
Braised Shaanxi Pasta, a traditional food in Shaanxi people's
reservations, is a combination of a variety of vegetables. The
pasta(called Mashi in Chinese) for this dish is in the form of
hollow date-stone-shaped flour rolls, formed with the thumb
or made with a special machine. All of the ingredients arestir-fried first and then braised with Mashi, so the soup has a
satisfying flavor.
Making Shaanxi Pasta
A. Take 2 bowls of flour and pour into a small basin. Make a hole in the middle and gradually add small
quantities of water until it forms into small pieces. Sprinkle some more water on the flour pieces and stir
by hand to form a paste on a board and smooth it out. Put it into the basin to be fermented for 15-20
minutes.
B. Take out of the flour paste and place on the board. Sprinkle some corn starch on it. Rub it into a big,
round pancake by hand. Roll it flat and thin with a rolling pin until it is about 0.5cm thick. Then cut it into
0.5cm wide strips which are then rubbed into columns.
C. Cut the columns into even dices, but do not cut too many at one time in case of sticking together.
Sprinkle some corn starch on the board (It will be easier to make Mashi on the bottom of a basket with
patterns on or on other kitchen tools with rough surface. Furthermore, the Mashi made on them will have
patterns on). Press your thumb on the dice and rub it until it rolls up like a cats ear. Repeat to make
more.

Answered by Nina
Actually, all kinds of Shaanxi pasta are made of wheat flour as wheat is one of the main farm
products in Shaanxi.
