Noodles
are a form of staple food very popular among North
Chinese especially in Beijing. They can be made either
by hand or by machine. They may be of different widths,
varying from ribbons to threads. As a prepared dish,
they can be served warm or cold, with chilli oil or
not, eaten with fried bean sauce, pork or chicken sauce,
duck chops, soup of any concoction and what not.
A special noodles stand out among the rest and require
professional skill. The "hand-pulled noodles" are
probably unique to China and can be made only by a trained
cook. He prepares the paste by stretching it in his hands
and, holding it stretched and shaking it gently up and
down four or five times until he feels the paste is firm
enough. Then, on a work board he starts pulling the paste
with his arms stretched. He folds the thick string of paste
into two, pulling again. This he repeats many times over
and the strings of paste become longer, more numerous,
thinner and thinner, turning finally into very fine noodles.
The whole process of making "hand-pulled noodles" is
done with such magical dexterity that to watch an experienced
cook at it is like enjoying a juggler's show. As noodles
are always in the form of long strings, they are symbolic
of longevity and are therefore indispensable at Chinese
birthday parties. |

The Huabiao
The Huabiao is an ornamental stone column used to decorate important buildings.
It can be very large, up to 20 meters in height and almost one meter in diameter.
The origins of the Huabiao are not clear. Some say it developed from the totem
poles of ancient tribes. When Yao and Shun were the country's rulers about
4 ,000 years ago, they also used them to solicit public opinion.
People would write their opinion and suggestions on the poles
by main roads. For the same reason some poles were also placed in the royal court.
With the establishment of the feudal system over 2,000 years ago, the Huabiao
came to represent the power of the emperor. It would be carried with dragons,
a symbol of royalty, and placed in or in front of palaces and
temples. Huabiaos were also placed in front of mperor’s tombs, in which
case they are called Mubiao, or tomb column.
As the use of these columns changed, so did their appearance. They became nore
ornate and gradually devloped into the Huabiao we mostly see
today. The typical Huabiao now has a round or octagonal base
surrounded by a carved stone wall. Typically, dragons are carved
on the column, while a dignified stone animal sits on its top.
Four of the most famous Huabiaos in China are to be found at the Gate of
Heavenly Peace at the entrance to the Forbidden City in Tian' anmen square in
Beijing. They were constructed during the Qing Dynasty. Each
has a stone Hou sitting regally at top of the column. Like the dragon, the
Hou is also a mythical animal that represents power and good fortune. The
heads of the Hous on the columns behind the gate are turned inward, looking
towards the palace, while those on the columns in front of the gate have their
heads turned outward. The positioning of the heads symbolized the hopes of the people.
With the animals' heads turning inward, emperors were expected
not to wallow in sexual pleasures in the palace, but to leave the palace and
get a better understanding of the common people and their needs. For
this reason, the columns behind the gate are named WangJunChu, which means expecting
His Majesty to go on an inspection. |
