MSG Goodness: Part Deux
Friday 2 November 2007 | Labels: humour | |Just when you thought you knew all my noodle eating ways! Just when you thought that I eat only one brand of instant noodles! You judge me too soon, as I am a cultured man of diversity.
There is another...
The Chapagetti: black bean paste instant noodles.
Nothing else satisfies the longing for succulent sauce & noodles. Wine and cheese are indeed the apotheosis of food and drink, but these instant noodles are il primo.
Some cultural lessons from wikipedia:
"Jajangmyeon is originally a Chinese dish, but the version familiar to Koreans is usually only found in Chinese restaurants in Korea or those serving Korean customers. This dish is also available in other countries where there is a large Korean population. In other words, Jajangmyeon is Korean cuisine in the way that pizza is American, rather than Italian, cuisine."
Yum!
And for those expecting a dose of MSG as in the first MSG goodness post, you will not be disappointed.
