Traditional bamboo noodle making: Zhukan bamboo noodles

The video demonstrates the entire process of making traditional bamboo noodles (Zhukan Mian, Jook-sing noodles)—from rolling out the dough with a massive bamboo pole to cutting, boiling, and serving it with greens and meat.

The cook sits on the pole and kneads the dough using their own body weight, making it dense, firm, and elastic. Jook-sing noodles are extremely popular in Cantonese cuisine (especially in Hong Kong and Macau) and are renowned for their distinctive crisp and springy texture.
