Liangfen

'cool rice noodles'), also spelled liang fen, is a Chinese legume dish consisting of starch jelly that is usually served cold, with a savory sauce, often in the summer.

[1] It is most popular in northern China, including Beijing,[2] Gansu,[3] and Shaanxi,[4] but may also be found in Sichuan[5] and Qinghai.

The liangfen strips are tossed with seasonings including soy sauce, vinegar, sesame paste, crushed garlic, julienned carrot, and chili oil.

[13] Similar foods include the Korean muk made with buckwheat, mung bean, or water chestnut starch and Japanese tokoroten.

[citation needed] Jidou liangfen, a similar dish from the Yunnan province of southwest China, is made from chickpeas rather than mung beans.
