This is a relatively large stall in the Sam Tiao Road Night Market. It is really big for a stall. The room behind the stall is full of tables for their family, and it is full of people~ According to the stall sign, their Hokkien noodles have two flavors: shrimp noodles and braised noodles. Based on the small portion, you can add noodles, braised eggs, meatballs, pig intestines, ribs, pig feet, and roasted meat according to your appetite and taste, and turn it into a large or deluxe version~
The staple food in the bowl is not limited to yellow noodles, but also fine noodles. According to the experience of Singapore Michelin curry noodles, it is of course half noodles and half noodles~ After ordering, I found that there were no empty tables. I glanced and saw a table of uncles who seemed to be local Chinese. I immediately shared a table~
Sitting down, there was a chat. It turned out that the uncle was a local of Penang. He usually liked this shrimp noodles and would come to report every now and then~
The uncle said: "He likes the basic small portion the most. As for those ribs, pig feet, and intestines, he doesn't add them~ The shrimp soup is rich, sweet and slightly spicy. The vermicelli can absorb the soup very well. The shrimp soup is the main component, and the soup overflows. The rich and sweet taste is permeated with the fragrance of rice and the refreshing chewiness of the vermicelli~ The noodles are mainly yellow noodles. The chewing between the toughness and elasticity releases the alkaline and noodle fragrance. With the help of the shrimp soup, the alkaline taste becomes approachable, and the sweetness of the noodles begins to release, making the taste more layered~"
Speaking of Penang cuisine, the uncle talked endlessly, and continued with the proud expression of Penang people: "This shrimp noodle is one of the characteristics of Penang. Take out the shrimp shells and shrimp heads, stir-fry with shallots, ginger and other spices in hot oil, and fully release the charming shrimp shell essence, and then blend it with the spicy flavor of the stir-fry~ After adding an appropriate amount of chili to enhance the flavor and remove the fishy smell, wrap it in a cloth bag and boil it with pork bones and water chestnuts into a rich soup~ The sweetness with a strong shrimp flavor and a slightly spicy taste makes me unable to stop eating. I can't help but come over to eat a bowl~"
When the uncle left, he looked at the spoon of chili in my bowl and said, "If you can eat spicy food, pour this spoon of sambal chili in. The strong conflict of sweet and spicy will make this bowl of shrimp noodles more delicious~"
