Northwestern Chinese Cold Skin Noodles)
The noodle is a beloved traditional dish from northwestern China, especially popular in provinces like Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, and Ningxia. It’s a go-to summer favorite. Its defining features include:
• Smooth and chewy texture: The noodles are semi-transparent, offering a tender yet resilient bite.
• Tangy and spicy flavor: Typically served with a mix of vinegar, chili oil, garlic paste, mustard, and sesame sauce, it’s a bold and refreshing flavor explosion.
• Served cold: Typically eaten chilled, making it perfect for beating the summer heat.
• Unique preparation process: Made by washing flour to extract starch, which is then steamed. The leftover gluten is also served alongside for extra texture.
• Diverse varieties: Includes white niangpi (made from wheat), dark niangpi (from highland barley), and potato-based versions—each with its regional twist.
