Spicy Noodles from Chongqing Noodles

Overview

When making Chongqing noodles, water surface is generally used, which is alkaline water surface. But since I live in the north, I really can’t buy alkaline water, so I can only use northern noodles. The texture of the noodles may not be as good as that of Chongqing, but the seasoning of the noodles is based on the Chongqing flavor, and the soy sauce, Sichuan peppercorns, and chili peppers are all brought from my hometown, so the taste is still very good.
