　　Push Wo Wo

　　Method: Pinch off a piece of dough, place it on the back of a knife (lightly oil the knife if you’re worried about sticking), then use your palm to flatten it. Pinch it up with your fingers, give it a flick, and roll it into a Wo Wo on your fingertip. Then stand all the Wo Wos up together — isn’t it pretty?

　　Using a He Lao noodle press (I brought this from Shanxi, not sure if they sell them in Beijing): This part’s simple — roll the oat flour dough into an oblong stick, insert it into the tool, and turn the handle — the oat noodles (Yu Yu) come out on their own.
