Wuhan Quanxiao Cold Noodles
Wuhan's all-ingredient cold noodles, like hot-dry noodles, use alkaline water noodles, but the noodles used for cold noodles are thinner, basically as thin as silver thread fine noodles. However, that kind of fine noodles is generally provided exclusively by noodle making workshops to noodle shop owners. Because the noodles are too thin and cannot be dried and stored, they will be extremely fragile and easily broken when dried, so they can only be made into soft noodles and must be eaten on the same day. Therefore, housewives like us generally can't buy them. We can only buy the dried noodles in the picture below. This kind of noodles can also be used to make hot dry noodles or cold noodles, but the taste is a little worse than fine noodles. Hehe!
