Dunhuang Sautéed Noodles

　　Dunhuang Sautéed Noodles are a traditional handcrafted wheat noodle dish. The preparation involves mixing flour with water to form dough, rolling it thin with a rolling pin, cutting it into strips, boiling them, and serving them in soup. The noodles are long, slender, and even in shape—resembling chives—with a delicious broth that satisfies hunger and relieves fatigue in no time. The key to these noodles lies in the broth, which is meticulously prepared. First, the sautéed ingredients (such as pork or lamb, radish, potatoes, etc.) are stir-fried over an appropriately controlled flame, then water is added. This is further enhanced with seasonings like tofu, scallions, garlic, cilantro, shrimp chips, and sesame seeds. The noodles are then added to the broth, resulting in a truly exceptional dish. Serving Sautéed Noodles to guests is the finest hospitality the people of Dunhuang can offer. (Dunhuang)
