Today’s shocking news that Kung Fu Panda had won 15 “Annie” Awards and shut out WALL-E led me to explore the DVD. The extras include a bonus video of Danny Yip, executive noodle chef at Mr. Chow making noodles by hand. I’ve never seen that done before, and it is magical.

Wow that’s actually extremely amazing. It was kind of mesmerizing. That guy was fantastic and Alton Brown is awesome. Great job Danny Yip! I want some yummy noodles now.

Actually, DO try that at home. Noodle making is neither magic or master chef stuff, just takes a bit of practice.
//and cutting off the last 10-20cm ends isn’t just to separate the strands – it’s to remove the dough that hasn’t been stretched (and therefore doesn’t have any gluten in it).

Super Cool…Alton Brown is EVERYWHERE!
But ‘Kung Fu Panda’ was the best Animated Film of last year?!?! Things I’m reading point to it as a ‘Best Animated Movie From a Studio Who Generally Produces Astounding Monkey Feces’ Award.

When I lived in Manhattan I used to go to a restaurant called super taste on eldridge street and you could see people in the back making noodles like this. awesome noodle soup there.
