Sua noodles are made from the main ingredients of soybeans and eggs, so they are golden yellow, long, thick, and stand out more than other types of noodles.
After kneading several times, the dough is rolled into thin pieces, cut into noodles, and boiled. After being drained, the noodles are mixed with cooking oil to make them shinier and then processed immediately to avoid fermentation.
Noodles are often stir-fried with vegetables, mushrooms, seafood such as squid, shrimp or pork, chicken and dipped in soy sauce or fish sauce with vinegar and chili depending on each person's preference.
