Rice noodles

　　Rice noodles are a representative Hakka dish, also known as “ho fun” in Cantonese or “kuey tzai” in Taiwanese. They can be stir-fried dry or served in soup, each style offering a unique flavor, though the soup version generally brings out the original taste better. Made with simple ingredients, the key to delicious rice noodles lies in their chewiness (Q度) and the aroma of the sautéed onions. Xinpu rice noodles are made with well water, distinguishing them from those in other regions that use tap water. This, along with their traditional handmade preparation method, gives them a uniquely chewy texture, making them the most renowned among northern Hakka communities.
