A CLOSER LOOK
How to recognize it
Fine golden handmade noodles from Batang, made with wheat flour, egg, bean flour and alkaline water traditionally prepared from plant ash. Buy them as a finished noodle ingredient; the bean species must be confirmed with the maker.
In the kitchen
Boil until cooked, rinse briefly, then warm in the yak-and-pork soup used for Jinsi maomian.
Contains wheat, egg and a bean flour of unspecified species. Do not assume it is soy, pea or mung bean, or that ordinary egg noodles are identical.
