Qianxia Lake Sweet Potato Starch Noodles

　　Sweet potatoes are rich in dietary fiber and a high amount of mucoprotein, which helps prevent cholesterol from depositing on blood vessel walls, wards off arteriosclerosis, promotes intestinal peristalsis, prevents constipation, and has special effects in preventing colorectal cancer and breast cancer. They also moisturize the skin and enhance beauty. Scientists at the University of Tokyo in Japan have analyzed and concluded that the anti-cancer effect of sweet potatoes surpasses that of ginseng.

　　The “Qianxia Lake” brand mountain starch is made from freshly harvested highland sweet potatoes, which are cleaned with natural well water and stream water to remove dirt and discard rotten tubers. The cleaned sweet potatoes are then crushed. After crushing, they form a paste-like mixture containing starch and fragmented fibers. This mixture is continuously washed with clean water while wrapped in fine gauze until the washing liquid becomes clear and only pure residue remains in the gauze. The starch slurry is then poured into a wooden barrel and left to settle for 12 hours. The sweet potato starch fully settles, after which the clear water from the top of the pool or barrel is drained. The remaining starch is then naturally sun-dried to obtain the final product. This purely natural, handcrafted “Qianxia Lake” brand mountain starch is recognized by customers for its pure white color and delicate texture.
