My mother-in-law was going to put chrysanthemum greens to waste again, and sesame paste was kind of expensive, and I wanted to make something using stuff at home... then my husband muttered "dan dan noodles", so here it is. He said it's better than the ones he had in a restaurant!I used chrysanthemum greens because we had a bunch that were close to its best-by date. I recommend it anyway because it was nice and crispy. If you're using bok-choy or spinach, microwave them first. Boil water for the noodles while you're making the soup to cut down on time. For 2 to 3 servings. Recipe by cakes&ale
