I was contacted by someone from a Taiwanese company called Choumama asking if I’d try their noodles. A few weeks later, these arrived. The packages certainly look fancy – very interested to see how they come out. Let’s give ’em a look!
Here’s the back of the package (click to enlarge). Contains meat and shellfish I’m guessing. To prepare, add noodle block to 900ml boiling water. cook for 5-6 minutes. Drain. add in sachet contents. Stir and enjoy!
There are two of these packages in the large package.
The noodle block.
A large retort pouch.
A thick and paste like concoction.
A liquid sachet.
A thin liquid.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added spring onion. The noodles went for 5 1/2 minutes and came out really nice – thick flat gauge and great chew to them without being too chewy. The flavor was a nice spicy and tasty XO sauce. The sauce was chunky and hearty with a very good quality and flavor. 4.0 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 4712947590211.
