Making soup one noodle at a time.
Usually handmade noodles are either stretched or shaved. This guy is shaving noodles right into a pot of boiling water. Marvelous!
For noodle soup I prefer the stretched; for stir fry, shaved. Yum, yum, yummy. ;-)

Heshun Village, Yunnan Province, China
Two weeks ago, the online version of The New York Times had a slide show on Heshun, a small town in China's Yunnan Province. We were in Heshun last December, so I made my own slide show on flickr. Hope you enjoy both slide shows!
