What does the Long March taste like?

In northwest China, two local noodle dishes tell stories from different moments along that historic journey – from "Red Army Noodles" in Xiji County, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, to "the first noodles of the Long March" Mao Zedong ate in Wuqi County, Shaanxi Province, near the end of the Long March.

Today, these dishes are more than memories on a table. The traditional crafts behind them have become local industries, creating jobs and livelihoods while keeping the stories and spirit of the Long March alive.
