Explanation:
The food which is my favorite looks like<u> very long and thin threads of dough</u>. There are many of them when served. They are <u>light </u>in color, usually <u>beige</u>. When added extra ingredients of sauce they can appear red or green.
My favorite food smells <u>salty and fresh</u>. The smell is <u>light, plain</u>, and not too specific.
The food feels <u>silky </u>and <u>smooth </u>when put through fingers. It is <u>soft </u>and can be easily <u>squashed</u>. The food is <u>light </u>– it’s doesn’t weigh too much, especially not separately. It is <u>flexible </u>and can be <u>moved easily.</u> When prepared right, it should be <u>soft, tender, and plump </u>under the tongue, but not too <u>sticky</u>
