Dang Gui Mian (當歸麵/当归面) Angelica Noodle Soup

Dang Gui Mian (當歸麵/当归面) Angelica Noodle Soup

 



Dang gui mian (當歸麵/当归面) (pinyin with tones: dāng guī miàn), angelica noodle soup, is a common dish in vegetarian noodle shops in Taiwan. Sometimes people switch noodles to vermicelli, but it does not affect the taste of soup. The soup contains many Chinese herbal medicines such as ligustrazine (川芎), rehmennia (熟地), wolfberry (枸杞), and the most important angelica (當歸). Sometimes there are some vegetables on the side: shiitake (香菇), enokitake (金針菇), baby corn (玉米筍), and leafy vegetables. The essence of dang gui mian is the meat analogue, which tastes like soya chunks but in bigger size. This soya chunks will absorb the soup so it is juicy and has a nice texture.

Hi, I’m Mosa. This name is taken from the latter words of Formosa, the former name of Taiwan in 16th century which means “beautiful island.” Indeed, Taiwan does have ravishing natural landscapes and diverse cultures worth exploring. However, there is no much access for foreigners to learn more about Taiwanese culture in English. Here in TAIWANBOW. 臺灣飽典 I started by introducing Taiwanese food to arouse people’s attention to Taiwan since Taiwan has been voted as the country with the best food*. I hope that through this website I can make some contribution to Taiwan, where I was born and grew up.
