As the saying goes, "Food is the most important thing for the people." . People live on food.

Let's talk about Daoxiao Noodles in Shanxi! Noodles should be kneaded into a cylinder more than a foot long. When cutting noodles, people stand in front of the pot, holding noodles in one hand and cutting from top to bottom with a knife in the other. The cut noodles are triangular with the same width and length. The noodles cut by the exquisite chef are "a drop in the soup pot, a float in the air, a fresh knife, and the noodles are cut like fish jumping". Snow-white noodles with different soups and meat particles have a unique flavor. Shanxi people call it "old vinegar", so vinegar in the seasoning is essential. A spoonful of bright red Chili oil is delicious, and people can't help eating more bowls. Speaking of Daoxiao Noodles, there is another story: It is said that after the Mongolian Tatar invaded the Central Plains, in order to prevent the Han people from rebelling, every household [note: every household. Refers to everyone's home. All the metal utensils were confiscated, and every ten households could only take turns cooking with a kitchen knife. An old man wanted to make noodles with a knife, but someone else took it away first. The old man saw a thin piece of iron sheet on his way home, so he cut it with this! He put the kneaded dough on the board and held it in his left hand. When he picked up the iron sheet with his right hand, he chopped it up. It was very thin.
