How to eat:
To prepare Snail rice noodles, place the dry rice noodles in boiling water, using an amount of water that depends on the size of the container holding the snail powder. Ensure that there is still some water left after the snail powder is submerged. It is recommended to add two drops of vinegar to soften the noodles faster, but take care not to let the water boil dry and burn the noodles. Keep cooking the snail noodles until they are easy to pinch with chopsticks or fingers, which typically takes around 8 to 12 minutes, depending on the size of the firepower and the air pressure of the location.
After cooking, pour out the hot water and refill with cold water that just submerged the snail noodles, then continue cooking. Once the water boils, add the ingredients, including the snail powder sauce, which must be added immediately to prevent the water from boiling dry. Depending on personal preference, you can add pickles, sour bamboo shoots, chili oil, peanut bean curd stick, or chili oil, and vegetables, cooked meat, or other foods. Stir well and enjoy the delicious dish.
Questions and Answers about Purchasing
Q: Why are there no snails in the powder?
A: Like other snail noodles, this one does not contain snails. This is because the soup base of snail noodles is made by stir-frying spices and boiling snails and pig bones, which is what gives the dish its distinct snail flavor.
Q: Why are there small black spots on the powder?
A: Our noodles are made from rice flour which, when processed into strips, can produce small black spots due to gelatinization. Rest assured that these spots are normal and safe to eat.
Q: Why do the sour bamboo shoots smell "smelly"?
A: The strong and pungent aroma of sour bamboo shoots is an essential ingredient in authentic snail noodles. However, if you are not accustomed to the smell, you may find it unpleasant. The smell is a natural result of the fermentation process, and if you are trying it for the first time, you can use less or even leave it out.
Q: What is the sediment in chili oil?
A: Our chili oil is made by boiling chili peppers and other ingredients. The sediment is a normal part of the process, but if you are sensitive to spicy foods or have a sensitive stomach, it is recommended to use less or avoid it altogether.
Q: What is the sediment in the soup bag?
A: Our snail powder sauce is made with snails, chicken bones, and spices. Sediment in the soup bag is normal and safe to consume.
