Description

Thin noodles are generally made with eggs.

One well known variety of thin noodles is called 全蛋麵 (Cantonese jyutping: cyun4 daan6 min6; Pinyin: quán dàn miàn; translating roughly as "whole egg noodles"). This variety is almost exclusively found in East and Southeast Asia, in regions with sizable Chinese populations.

Preparation

Depending on the cuisine style, thin noodles may be boiled with some type of broth or stir fried in a wok.
