White Water Buckwheat Noodles (Hele)

　　Buckwheat hele noodles are a traditional local delicacy in Bai Shui. Made with carefully selected ingredients and crafted with precision, they are served with seasonings that enhance their delicious, smooth, and delicate flavor, earning them widespread acclaim both within and beyond the county. Bai Shui hele noodles are known for being white, fine, long, and soft. Their surface is clean and white, making them almost indistinguishable from wheat flour hele noodles. They are as fine as cellophane noodles, can stretch several feet in length, and are soft yet elastic. When served hot and mixed with seasoned meat sauce (saozi), they are smooth, soft, delicate, and refreshing. When served cold, they are slender, cool, and delicious. When stir-fried, they become loose, soft, and fragrant. People often use high-quality buckwheat hele noodles to entertain guests.
