The Chinkiang pot cover noodle (Chinese: 镇江锅盖面; pinyin: Zhènjiānguogàimiàn) is one kind of incooked[spelling?] wheaten food, which is known to every household in China.
In ancient times, there was a family in Chinkiang. When the wife cooked noodles for her husband, the pot cover of the cooking stove would slip into the noodles pot. However, the noodles were more delicious, neither hard nor lousy. Therefore, he opened a noodle store with a partner. People loved to call it "the pot cover noodles".[1][2][3][4] Chefs say that boiling the noodles with a wooden lid enhances the aroma.[5]
