According to local people, the founder of pillow noodles is Li Jinguang, a local farmer, who is over 80 years old this year. A few years ago, he had been selling noodles in Li Laozhuang for a living. His noodles needed to be mixed with alkaline noodles and salt the night before, and then they were rolled hard with a rolling file the next day after fermentation to produce thin and strong noodles. Once, Li Jinguang made a bet with the people around him that his noodles would be cooked as usual the next day after sleeping in a pillow for one night. As a result, his reputation for pillow noodles came out like this. Li Jinguang said that whoever wanted to learn this noodle making technology from him asked him to learn it. As a result, only Li Laozhuang, Li Fei braised pig's trotters shop and a restaurant in Wang Lou learned it. Some people worry that this craft will gradually be lost in the future.
