Tongren Guoba Rice Noodles

Tongren Guoba Rice Noodles

　　A traditional specialty food. It is made by grinding soaked rice and vegetable leaves into a paste, which is then cooked on an iron griddle. It gets its name because its surface closely resembles crispy rice crust. Served with various seasonings, it is delicious, convenient, and commonly eaten for breakfast or lunch.

　　It is quite similar to Xi’an’s liangpi. Pan noodles are usually eaten cold or boiled, while guoba rice noodles also involve blending greens into the paste and cooking them on the griddle until a crispy layer forms. The finished guoba rice noodles have a golden color that is very appealing.
