2, add eggs: the way to make the noodles become both strong and nutritious, is to add eggs, into the egg noodles. The protein in the egg white can increase the gluten of the noodles, and the lecithin in the egg yolk can also make the noodles taste smooth and reduce sticking.

Fresh cut noodles should not be stored for too long as the nutrients may be damaged.
Bought cut noodles sometimes have a heavy alkali flavor, the addition of alkali is to remove the sour taste of the dough, the proper use of which can bring excellent color, aroma, taste and shape of the food, in order to enhance people's appetite. Therefore, when the noodles are almost ready, add a few drops of vinegar, which can make the alkaline taste of the noodles disappear, and the color of the noodles will change from yellow to white.
