Gedi'er

Last updated 2026-11-13 — Gedi'er is a type of noodle dish from Luquan City in Shijiazhuang. It is made by mixing cornmeal with wheat flour or other types of flour into a dough, which is then pressed through a strainer suspended over a pot of boiling water. Once the water boils, the noodles are cooked and can be served as a porridge or with a rich sauce. Because it uses various types of flour, it offers multiple nutritional benefits, and its appearance—resembling strings of pearls that have snapped and stretched—stimulates the appetite.
