In the Chinese-speaking world, fresh wheat noodles are referred to as mein. Most are made by combining wheat flour, salt, water, and sometimes egg and then kneading the mixture into a smooth dough. The dough is rolled into sheets and then cut, just as Italian pasta is. These noodles are sometimes (though less often) extruded through dies into strands of various shapes and sizes. Often, coloring is added to get that distinctive yellow color.
