The thinner-than-a-human-hair noodles made by Li En-hai (历恩海), a chef with 26 years' experience of making noodles from Xinjiang Ugyur Autonomous Region, has been recognized as world's thinnest noodles by Guinness World Records. The noodles can be threaded 39 strands through the head of a needle. If just one kilo of flour was made into a single extra long noodle, it would stretch over two-thousand kilometers. Link
Update: "The Noodle King" or "Prince of Hand-pulled Noodles" recently displayed his superb skill stretching out dough by hand in Hohhot, the capital of Inner Mongolia in northern China. With just 1 kilogram of flour he can pull out 2 million strands of noodle with a combined length of 2,650 kilometers. He is looking for an apprentice from Inner Mongolia to pass his skills on to. 20/April
