In the heart of a Hakka village in Shaoguan, south China's Guangdong Province, a culinary tradition unfolds with every handmade rice noodles. 

Honoring a century-old technique, these noodles are crafted with meticulous care. Rice is ground into a liquid paste, transformed into sheets, and expertly steamed atop fragrant firewood before being skillfully cut into long, luscious strands. Basking in sunshine, the noodles achieve a delightful crispness and are then ready to be placed in tantalizing soups, stir-fries, or any delectable dish.
