Today, Bon Appétit meets Chef Lucas Sin in Hong Kong to try Bamboo-pressed Noodles. These noodles are rare and an iconic part of Hong Kong’s street food legacy, with only a handful of places still making them the traditional way by hand. Using nothing but eggs and flour, these springy noodles are pressed with a 40-year-old bamboo pole and then transformed into the perfect bowl of wonton noodle soup.
