　　Sinan is known for its diverse varieties of folk rice noodles and mung bean noodles. With the abundant water and lush grasses of the Wu River, the cattle and sheep in Sinan grow strong and plump. When these ingredients meet the culinary talents of the Wu River locals, the renowned Sinan Lamb Noodles are born.

　　The production of rice noodles is relatively common, but the secret to Sinan Lamb Noodles lies in the cooking of the lamb. First, the lamb is cut into small pieces and repeatedly rinsed to remove blood. Then, the lamb and bones are all placed into a boiling pot of water, along with a traditional blend of seasonings. After simmering for half an hour, the lamb and the original broth are set aside. The lamb is then sliced and returned to the broth pot two or three times. Finally, the lamb and broth are poured over cooked rice noodles, garnished with a few slices of ginger, scallions, and other seasonings, making it ready to eat.
