Recipe Description:

This enchanting, enticing dish is known all over Sichuan province by the not-so-appealing name of ‘ants climbing a tree’, probably because of the way the finely ground pork clings to each noodle as you pull it towards you. The effect is achieved by simmering the soaked noodles directly in the sauce until they come together. These crystal-clear, nutritious noodles are made from mung beans, so they aren’t treated by Chinese cooks as a staple ingredient, as wheat noodles often are. That’s why we’ve served them on a bed of rice, letting the meaty, saucy noodles gradually sink into the fluffy grains
