Tofu is a great protein alternative.

Mix high protein flour and salt in a bowl.

Gradually add room temperature water while stirring until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 10 minutes.

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Divide the dough into equal portions and roll each portion into a long strip, about 1 inch wide.

Stretch the strips by hand until they are thin and wide, resembling ribbons.

Boil water in a large pot and add the noodles, cooking until they float, about 2-3 minutes.

Drain the noodles and rinse under cold water to stop cooking.

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat and sauté garlic and diced scallion until fragrant, about 1 minute.

Add soy sauce, Chinese black vinegar, and chili flakes to the pan, stirring to combine.

Toss the cooked noodles in the sauce mixture until well coated.

Serve the noodles topped with Baby bok choy.
