Yangchun noodles embody flavor of Yangzhou

Yangchun (warm spring) noodles are a specialty in Gaoyou, a county in the city of Yangzhou in East China's Jiangsu province. On the surface, yangchun noodles are nothing more than ordinary noodles placed in a simple soup of shrimp-roe soy sauce, shredded green onions and lard. However, they are more than meets the eye – they are a reflection of the simplicity and warmth of Yangzhou.
