Published Jul 12, 2024 Updated Sep 05, 2024 Fun fact: “Dan dan” in Chinese originally referred to the pole vendors used to carry this dish on the streets. Back then, these noodles were incredibly affordable, leading people to nickname them “dan dan mian” after the pole itself. I’ve tried many types of dan dan mian, and nothing beats the authentic flavors from Sichuan. Unlike the watered-down versions you often get elsewhere, the authentic Sichuan dan dan noodles is full of robust, nutty, spicy, and subtly tangy flavors that really stand out. My easy dan dan noodles recipe lets you bring these authentic and irresistible Sichuan flavors right to your kitchen.
