Hao Huan Luo Snail Rice Noodles (Luosifen)

部屋が下水臭くなる!?でも旨すぎる中国一の「悪臭ヌードル」

Spice 3 Pescatarian, Gluten-free

Description

A specialty of Liuzhou, Guangxi, and an instant noodle exploding into a social phenomenon among Chinese youth recently ('Hao Huan Luo' is the absolute top brand). Eaten with a soup of intense umami braised from river snails and pork bones, topped with 'Suan Sun' (pickled bamboo shoots emitting an intense fermented odor). Makes the whole room smell like a 'public toilet', but eating it captivates you with umami.

Trivia

The smell's cause isn't the snail, but the 'Suan Sun' (fermented bamboo) topping. Haters can discard this packet to eliminate the smell, but Chinese aficionados 'double the Suan Sun' to challenge the limit of the stench (umami).

Eating tips & etiquette

The flashy yellow/purple packaged 'Hao Huan Luo' and red 'Luo Ba Wang' are the big two. Japanese piling these up at Asian stores are undoubtedly deep Chinese food maniacs.
