Noodles are a staple of Chinese cuisine, woven into the very fabric of the culture. The noodle is a symbol of longevity and are as much a part of a Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake. In Chinese tradition, noodles help to keep a meal in harmony – and so there are countless servings of noodles eaten each day around the world.
In
China, each region has its own traditions and techniques. But
hand-pulled and hand-shaved noodles are two of the most celebrated forms
of noodle-making, each requiring years of training to develop the
skill. Noodle Masters must learn the legends and history behind their
craft.
