Egg Yolks: Mix yolks with cool water. Brush skillet
at medium heat with peanut oil. Pour some egg yolk
mixture in skillet; spread to make a thin sheet;
remove when egg is set. Repeat until egg is used. Cool
egg sheets. Slice into thin strips to match chicken
shreds.
Onions: Wash & remove roots. Slice the long way, then
thinly slice on the bias.
Dressing: Mix soy, vinegar, chili oil, ginger juice,
garlic & sugar. Heat oil until it begins to smoke; add
to other ingredients. Cool. Using hot oil gives
dressing distinctive & mellow flavor.

noodles, chicken & onion. Garnish with egg strips.
Serve.
