Cold tantanmen made with Sesame Hiyashi Chuka topping with pork garnish

Tantanmen is a Japanese take on the Sichuan Dan Dan noodles. Unlike Dan Dan noodles, Tantanmen has a mellow creamy flavor from sesame paste and soy milk. Because sesame paste can be hard to find, we recommend using peanut butter! Peanut butter is a good alternative for a nutty creamy flavor. While Tantanmen is usually hot, you can make it cold by rinsing the noodles in cold water and adding ice! For this recipe, we used our our Sesame Hiyashi Chuka. Try it out, as this can definitely be a summer favorite!
