Chinese have a saying that: "the world's pasta in China, China's pasta in Shanxi". "Shanxi people love noodles and Shanxi's history, geography, politics, culture and planting habits are inseparable. Historically speaking, Shanxi Yao, Shun, and Yu all built their capitals and established their careers here. Furthermore, from the point of view of Pingyao, a famous historical and cultural city, Shanxi also has a lot of commercial activities, which also lays the foundation for the formation and development of Shanxi noodle dishes. Coupled with the fact that Shanxi has many mountains and little water, the temperature difference between the north and the south is large, so it also formed the habit of planting a lot of miscellaneous grains, which also laid a material foundation for the formation of Shanxi pasta."
Many varieties and patterns of Shanxi noodle dishes are also a reason why people love noodles. Even the average housewife can use wheat flour, sorghum flour, bean flour, buckwheat, oat noodles made of dozens of kinds of pasta, like knife-shaved noodles, pulling noodles, pulling the lumps, push the nest, enema and so on.
