Chinese Birthday Noodles

As a Chinese decent, it’s a tradition in my family to cook noodles with eggs on every family member’s birthday. Noodles symbolize long life, prosperity, and also good luck. While eggs symbolizes birth or a new start. (My mom used to cook me red eggs instead when I was a kid although I don’t do it anymore 😁)
Note: recipe for the homemade noodles will be posted tomorrow 😊
