Archaeologists found evidence of a rice noodle workshop in a 2,200-year-old Han-dynasty tomb near Changsha.

Round or flat rice noodles are boiled and served in a pork bone broth, topped with stir-fried pickled long beans and minced pork, chili oil, and scallion.

Why it's made this way: With a documented history stretching back to the Han dynasty, the dish anchors Changsha's daily breakfast rhythm.
