Made from all-natural ingredients, the noodles are produced through a meticulous, multi-day process that includes selecting rice, fermenting the rice, grinding into slurry, pressing out excess water, steaming and kneading the dough. The defining step is pressing the dough directly into boiling water to form strands, which are then immediately removed and served with seasonings for a fresh flavor. (Xinhua/Huang Xiaobang)
