Cumian ([tsʰu˥mjɛn˥˩]; lit. "thick noodles") are thick Chinese noodles made from wheat flour and water. Two types of Chinese noodles are called cumian. One is Shanghai style, thick in diameter,[1] used in Shanghai fried noodles.[2] The other type is Hong Kong style, flat and wide,[1] sometimes yellow-alkaline.[3] The flat cumian is a popular option in Hong Kong's cart noodles.[3]
