About Mimi Udon (Ear-shaped wheat noodles)
Wheat flour is kneaded and rolled out, then cut into squares. Two neighboring corners of each square are pinched together to make a shape resembling an ear. The ears are said to represent the ears of an evil spirit. By eating them, people believed the spirit would not hear conversations at home, and they would also avoid hearing bad gossip, allowing them to live peacefully throughout the year.
