Support the dough with your left hand, and hold the knife in your right hand. Hands rise and fall, creating silver strands that fall into a pot to become mellow and flavorful Chinese noodles.

As the saying goes, "The world's noodles look at China, and Chinese noodles look at Shanxi". Shanxi has more than 1,000 kinds of noodles, the most well-known of which is the traditional noodle-making art "Shaving Noodles with a Flying Knife".

On the occasion of the 2024 Shanxi Tourism Development Conference, Diana Pukhova, a girl from Russia, learns to make noodles using kung fu from Zhao Xiping, the inheritor of Taiyuan's intangible cultural heritage.

Diana feels that Shanxi Sliced Noodles are not only a cuisine but also a sort of culture. The process of shaving the noodles is just like a martial arts performance. She hopes that a growing number of international foodies will learn about the time-honored traditional Chinese food culture through noodles.
