According to the oral legend of the people in Kagawa Prefecture, Japan, Buddhist masters brought back a noodle making method from the Tang Dynasty, which saved the poor people in Zanqi, so many people think that this is the origin of Zanqi udon noodles.

Oolong noodles, together with Japanese green tea noodles and mustard wheat noodles, are called the three major noodles and are one of the most distinctive noodles in Japan. The basic method of udon noodles is to stir the dough with salt water to make the dough form gluten faster, then roll the dough into the shape of a big cake with a rolling pin, and finally fold the big cake and cut it into the shape of noodles with a knife.
