Dried noodles are made from wheat flour that is added with salt, alkali and water, hung to dry and then cut into dry noodles of a certain length.

Noodles are made from refined flour, do not contain preservatives or additives, and their nutritional ingredients are effectively retained. The reason why noodles can be stored for a long time is that they go through a drying and dehydration process, and have no moisture, so they can naturally be stored for a long time. However, noodles that are abnormally white in color are not good. According to the quality supervision and random inspection of noodle products organized by the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine, noodles that are too white in color actually have a whitening agent called benzoyl oxide added to the wheat flour. According to the "Hygiene Standards for the Use of Food Additives", its content shall not exceed 0.06g/kg, otherwise it will be harmful to human health.
