Guazhou Knife-Cut Noodles

Last updated 2026-11-15 —  　　With a long history, the making process of these noodles is relatively simple, yet the method is quite intriguing. The kneaded dough is balanced on the head, carried on the shoulder, or held in the palm, then skillfully sliced with force, almost like a dance. Once cooked, the noodles are white in color, the sauce bright red, and the taste fragrant and delicious—especially those made with Helin flour produced in Anxi County, Gansu.
