- At the bottom of a bowl, blend the crucial 'Majiang' (special sesame sauce). Mix plenty of white sesame paste (Zhimajiang) with a little peanut butter for extra richness.
- Add soy sauce, sesame oil, black vinegar, a little sugar, and grated garlic. Thin out with a little warm water (or broth) until smooth.
- Boil Chinese noodles (flat or medium-thick catch the sauce well). Right before done, drop greens (like bok choy) into the pot and remove together.
- Put the drained hot noodles and greens into the bowl with the sauce.
- Scatter chopped scallions on top. (Some shops add a little Lu Rou Fan minced pork).
- Right before eating, toss vigorously from bottom to top until the rich sesame sauce completely and thickly coats all the noodles.

Trivia
[For Everyone] Unlike cold 'Liangmian', this is eaten with hot noodles, so the sesame and garlic aroma rises intensely with the steam. Very rich and moisture-absorbing, so ordering a light soup alongside is Taiwanese common sense.
Eating tips & etiquette
[Unique Eating] Since noodles absorb the sauce and clump up over time, mix it at 'per-second speed' upon serving, drip a little homemade chili oil, and slurp instantly!
