Biangbiang Noodles
Biangbiang noodles ( zh, s=, t=𰻞𰻞麵, p=Biángbiángmiàn), alternatively known as ''youpo chemian'' () in Chinese, are a type of Chinese noodle originating from Shaanxi cuisine.

Biangbiang noodles are renowned for being written using a unique character. The character is unusually complex, with the standard variant of its traditional form containing 58 strokes. Noodles The noodles are thick and belt-like, and are usually hand-made. For most of their existence, they have been an obscure dish local to Xi'an, eaten by workers lacking the time to make thinner noodles. More recently, the noodles have become more widely known across China, in a rise driven to some extent by social media interest in the esoteric character used to write ''biáng''. The word ''biáng'' is onomatopoeic, being said to resemble the sound of the thick nood ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
