  Chinese cooking attaches symbolic importance to the idea of making dishes by hand, and this is one reason for the quality of the cooking. Sometimes, eating is like enjoying an acrobatic performance. For example, pared fresh noodles, a specialty of Shanxi Province, are made in an acrobatic style. A cook stands a meter away from a wok, in which water is boiling. With a chunk of dough set on his arm and a sharp knife in his hand, he pares the dough into thin pieces projected right into the boiling water, a scene very much resembling fish diving into water. Any person witnessing this scene for the first time would be fascinated by the superb skill of the cook, so much so as to forget to eat. It is even more interesting to know that in the past a cook usually put the dough on his head and used two knives instead of one to pare the noodles. That would have looked even more like acrobatics than a cooking method!
