Pancit (Filipino Noodles)



I spent Veteran's Day with my favorite veteran, my dad making pancit to celebrate my sisters' and brother's birthdays. Pancit is served at birthdays to wish a long life. The recipe starts with a visit to the Oahu Noodle Factory on King Street. You feel transported back in time as you walk into the dusty, floury shop where I believe they still use the same machines from the day they opened 30 years ago. My dad is a master at using simple ingredients of fresh noodles, green beans, mushrooms, carrots, pork, oyster sauce and shoyu, no measuring necessary. He's that awesome!
