Mixing the flour
First, place 300g of tapioca flour into a bowl, then boil 150ml of filtered water and gradually add the water into the bowl of flour while stirring with a spoon until the flour absorbs the water evenly.
When the flour cools down a bit, use your hands to knead until the flour forms a smooth, sticky dough. Next, cover the dough tightly and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
Tip: If the dough is too wet, you can add a little more tapioca flour and mix well.

Making the tapioca noodles
Divide the dough into 6 equal parts and place the dough on a cutting board, using a rolling pin to roll the dough into long pieces about 1/4 inch thick.
Next, evenly sprinkle a little tapioca flour over the rolled dough pieces and use a knife to cut the dough into small noodles.
Tip: To prevent the dough from sticking to the cutting board, sprinkle a little tapioca flour on the surface of the board before rolling out the dough.
