3. After a while, you will have a tight dough.
4. After spending 15 minutes kneading the dough, you will get an elastic lump.
5. Cut it into convenient pieces and roll each piece thinly, about 2 mm thick.

8. Carefully unfold the dough and place the strips on the baking sheet. Dry the noodles either in the oven at 80 degrees with the door open, or naturally in the air or in the warm sunshine in summer.
9. Store the finished noodles in a paper bag or glass jar in a dry place. Use it for any meal, just like a store-bought product.
