Pasta history

Shaanxi Qishan vermicelli has always been famous at home and abroad, and it is a branch of Shanxi pasta. During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, Ma Jinding brothers from Jishan County, Shanxi Province came all the way to Qishan to do noodle business, and the brand name was "Shuntiancheng". To this day, Qishan noodles still use this time-honored brand. Royal tributes in the past are now famous overseas.

/kloc-in the 3rd century, the famous Italian traveler Kyle Poirot came to Shanxi twice and introduced pasta to Italy along the Silk Road. Later, Italians also liked noodles, and developed more than 400 kinds of noodles, mostly hollow noodles, as thick as fingers and as thin as silk. Italian "macaroni", which is popular all over the world, is produced under this background.

The introduction of noodles has broadened the shaping of flour-bread by nomadic culture to a new field. As westerners say, it not only provides a way to eat, but also solves the problem of flour storage. It is worth noting that today's Italy has not only become an exporter of hollow noodles, but also exported a large number of complete sets of equipment for producing noodles to us. It seems that the reality facing our "rolling pin" is so severe.
