An archaeology team "discovered 4000-year-old long boiled strands of noodles protected by an upside-down bowl, embedded in a fine clay on a terrace of the Yellow River at Lajia, northwestern China.
The find proves the Chinese were shaping flour into noodles and boiling them for the plate at least 2000 years before the practice first emerged in Italy."
Their finding was published in the British journal Nature.
