About Taiwanese cold noodles

Taiwanese Cold Noodles, or "liang mian," are a popular summer dish in Taiwanese cuisine known for their refreshing flavor and simplicity. This dish typically consists of wheat-based noodles served chilled and topped with fresh julienned cucumbers, shredded chicken or tofu, and sometimes carrots or bean sprouts. The noodles are dressed in a savory and slightly tangy sesame sauce, made from tahini or peanut butter, soy sauce, vinegar, and garlic. High in carbohydrates, Taiwanese Cold Noodles provide quick energy, while the cucumbers and added proteins like chicken or tofu contribute vitamins, minerals, and lean nutrition. While the sesame sauce offers heart-healthy fats, its sodium content may be high depending on the soy sauce used. This dish stands out for its balance of flavors and textures, while offering a lighter, hydrating option ideal for hot weather. It can be customized for vegetarian or vegan diets, making it adaptable and inclusive.
