I got the address from my friend where to buy this special mee sua, I believe its hand made and imported from Malaysia. The address is 61, Jalan Besar, opp. Sim Lim Tower. The shop name is Lee Hwa; you’ll notice it’s an old provisional shop. This mee sua is a little salty, probably to preserve it, so your soup should not be too salty when you combine it. When you're there, please ask for the mee sua wrapped in newspaper. It cost $25 per pack but it worth the taste. Btw they also sell the seaweed. You need to deep fry the seaweed before serving it. Lee Hwa also sells other factory made mee sua.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-90991728843717393002010-03-01T14:49:22.672+08:002010-03-01T14:49:22.672+08:00Hi elstrial, are you referring to 'pah mee'...Hi elstrial, are you referring to 'pah mee' or mee sua?

Like you, I don't like the taste of the dried golden needle! We stir fry the different types of mushroom together with the golden needles and use as toppings.

Yes, I think...Hi: nice to see your comment so soon~<br />Yes, I think we had golden needle too(which means it should be 5 toppings instead of 4.) I don't quite like golden needle so I guess I subconciously omit it :P <br />But the "golden needle金針" I'm saying here is the dried flower/bud from the lily-like plant, not the tiny mushroom enoki that's in Chinese called "golden needle mushroom金針菇". The 1st one is a plant's flower & the 2nd one is a fungus(mushroom). You guys use the mushroom as one of the mee sua toppings? Maybe I can try that next time!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01028885480616077579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-38765745527712563532009-06-29T19:50:39.538+08:002009-06-29T19:50:39.538+08:00Hi hope, I like the dry version too.

Just I'm from Taiwan instead of Singapore. My dad left Putian for Taiwan when he was 7 but he speaks that tough dialect well^^. Anyway, we used to have this mee sua--the dry version, w/o the meat & mushroom but with shreds of fried egg -- as first meal of cny when my granddad was still alive. I actually went back to Putian with my dad approx. 20 yrs ago, and guess what our folks gave us to eat? A huge bowl of this kind of dry mee sua! It was tasty~ For the dry version I think you just cook the mee sua, drain the water then stir with some cooking oil so they won't stick. My mom likes to heat the oil with some chopped garlic then stir in the drained mee sua. It's yummy. Oh, I remember my granddad said there should be 4(?) kinds of stuff on top of this mee sua...I remember we got peanuts, seaweeds, eggs & the peas which makes the colors look nice~Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01028885480616077579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-15336112227967571582009-01-29T15:51:00.000+08:002009-01-29T15:51:00.000+08:00Hi Anonymous, I'm sorry, I do not know how to make...Hi Anonymous, I'm sorry, I do not know how to make the dry version :(Happy Homebakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15310704979379806678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4805570821469912515.post-62903846137188579052009-01-23T15:04:00.000+08:002009-01-23T15:04:00.000+08:00Hi Happy Homebaker,I am so glad i found your site,...Hi Happy Homebaker,<BR/><BR/>I am so glad i found your site, at least now i found one recipe for the noodle!
