Good morning everyone!
Today, I want to introduce the delicious food from my hometown. Luosifen made of rice noodles that smells very stinky but tastes delicious.
Luosifen in Guangxi, is one of the most typical foods, and has become more and more popular across China. The soup is mainly made from Luosi (snail?) and add various seasoning. The rice noodles were blanched using hot water and then placed into the bowl. After that, the special soup was added, along with various toppings such as pickled bamboo shoot and dried tofu skin (the yellow square-shaped food in the picture is dried tofu skin). If you like, you can add your favorite toppings according your taste.
The most important part of Luosifen is soup, as long as the soup tasted good, the dish is successful. Many people think Luosifen smells stinky, because of the pickled bamboo shoot in it. However, for us from Guangxi, Luosifen is favorite food, smells fragrant and tastes delicious.
If you have chance, you can try it!
So you mean, the unique smell is from pickled bamboo shoot and not from the snails right? And can you explain how is the smell like?
ReplyDeleteYes, the smell from pickled bamboo shoot. It's sour and stinky smell. Because the bamboo shoot are pickled for a long time. people who can't accept the smell may be unbearable.
DeleteOK I will remember it for the trial in the future. 螺螄粉, right?
