As we wind down this Meet The Manufacturer, I’ve been saving one that I found very interesting to be towards the end. I use coriander in the ‘finished’ photo of many instant noodle varieties – but never have I seen an instant noodles whose primary flavor is coriander. I’m very curious about this one – let’s check it out!

The noodles.
The soup base sachet.
A very light powder.
The garnish sachet.
Coriander!
An oil sachet.
Has a bright yellowish hue.
Finished (click to enlarge). Added Salad Cosmo mung bean sprouts and coriander. The noodles hydrated very well. They are wide and flat and have a decent chew to them but not overly chewy for a rice noodle. The broth is a kind of salty and chicken like one, augmented by a nice oiliness. The sachet of dried coriander can be seen flecked throughout here. To be honest, I expected this to be an onslaught of coriander flavor, but it was a little drowned out so to speak by the broth’s saltiness. I think it could be served better with more coriander and less saltiness. Still, it was a tasty bowl of rice noodles. 2.75 out of 5.0 stars. EAN bar code 8851876001491.
A short and beautiful on harvesting and transporting coriander in northern Thailand.
