Pancit canton or pansit canton is one of the Chinese cuisine that Filipinos adopted. Like the pancit bihon which also have it’s origin from the Chinese traders long ago, this pancit or stir fried noodles are almost the same on how they are cooked with the addition of meat and vegetables but the only difference is the noodles that are used in cooking pancit.

Pancit canton noodles are flour based and yellowish in color. They are also dried and fried and packaged in a clear cellophane wrapping unlike the bihon noodles or rice sticks that use rice flour as the main ingredient and the color is usually opaque white. Those are only sun dried and packaged without frying the noodles. Somehow maybe you are wondering when you eat pancit canton and you will notice it is a lot greasier than pancit bihon. It is because the pancit canton noodles are fried in the manufacturing process.
