Ways To Enjoy Nuo Mi Chang

The basic way to enjoy nuo mi chang is to slice it into 1~2 cm thick and dip it in thick soy sauce (or their special sauce). The stands that sell nuo mi chang or called da chang jian (大腸煎/大肠煎) (pinyin with tones: dà cháng jiān) usually serve xiang chang (香腸, sausage) as well. Another common way to eat with xiang chang is to cut nuo mi chang from top to end without cutting off and put xiang chang along with some pickles and sliced garlic inside. This snack has a name called da chang bao xiao chang (大腸包小腸), where da chang (大腸) means nuo mi chang and xiao chang (小腸) is xiang chang. Nuo mi chang is also a favorite food item in yan su ji (鹽酥雞, Taiwanese popcorn chicken) stands and tan kao (炭烤, BBQ) stalls. They usually serve nuo mi chang with a skewer or cut in pieces.

 

「糯米腸不論是用炸的、炭烤的，或是直接切片沾醬油都很好吃，但在大腸包小腸中搭配香腸一起吃最是經典。」——Mosa 說
