Yangma Zhazha Noodles

Yangma Zhazha Noodles

　　Created by a sister surnamed Zha from Yangma Town. "Zhazha Noodles" is short for "Zha Family Meat Residue Noodles." The production technique is unique, using high-quality premium wheat flour along with additives, which are repeatedly kneaded by hand to produce fine, water-leaf noodles that are elastic and have long, chewy strands. The meat residue is made from lean pork—either from the pork butt or leg tendons—and chicken. After boiling, it is simmered for a long time with pork bone and chicken bone. The selection of ingredients is very meticulous, resulting in a distinctive flavor that remains delicious even after many servings. Nowadays, Yangma Town has formed a "Zhazha Noodles Street," represented by "Zhazha Noodles" and "Longevity Noodles," which is well known far and wide. There are many imitations in cities such as Chengdu, Mianyang, and Leshan, but only the ones from Yangma Town in Chongzhou are authentic. (Chongzhou)
