There are a lot of these bag style products – especially at Chinese-centric Asian grocery stores here in the US. I think they might get overlooked by my more exploratory community, considering they’re a little more spendy and hey – the price and not knowing the flavors may make one more risk averse insofar as liking them. That being said, you should try them – do it! This is a dry and saucy variety – let’s give it a whirl.
Tian Xiao Hua Spicy Red Oil Thin Potato Noodles – China
A distributor / import sticker (click to enlarge).
Detail of the packaging (click to enlarge). Looks to be meat free but check for yourself. To prepare, boil noodle in 500ml water for 3 minutes, stirring and breaking apart the noodle frequently. Drain. Add everything in. Finally, stir and enjoy!
A large pouch of noodle.
A large sachet of oil.
Another liquid base sachet.
A sachet of vegetables.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added chashu, sesame seed, and scallion. Noodle is thick and incredibly slippery stuff. Flavor was really interesting, yet somewhat bland. There was a nudge of heat, but not very savory; rather muted from the norm I’ve found in Chinese varieties. 3.25 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 6936381704395.
Amazon – I’ve not a clue what this is…
