   Boil Water

   烧水

   Pour water into the saucepan and bring to a boil.

2. 2

   Add Noodles

   下入面条

   Add the noodles evenly to the pot.

   将面均匀放入锅中

   ⏱10 sec

   • 💡 If using dried noodles, spread them out in a fan shape.如果是挂面，可以呈放射状散开
   
3. 3

   Stir to Prevent Sticking

   搅拌防粘

   Stir occasionally while boiling to prevent the noodles from clumping together.

   在煮的过程注意搅拌，避免面粘成一坨

   ⏱3 min

   • 💡 Reduce the heat slightly once the water returns to a boil.水再次沸腾时可适当调小火力
   
4. 4

   Check Doneness

   确认熟度

   When a noodle lifted with chopsticks slides off naturally, wait another 30 seconds and turn off the heat.

   当用筷子挑起一根面且该面能自然地从筷子上滑落时再等 30 秒关火

   ⏱30 sec

   • 💡 For a firmer texture, turn off the heat a bit earlier.喜欢硬一点口感的可提前关火
