Here’s an interesting one made in Thailand by Thai President Foods. Why’s it interesting? Well, aside from being a whole wheat noodle, it’s definitely for the Scandinavian market. I think it’s interesting how many companies have popular products both in their home countries and abroad, but especially in Scandinavia. Let’s have a look at this product from MAMA!
Here’s the back of the package (click image to enlarge). Looks to be meat free but check for yourself. To prepare, add contents to a bowl and add 1 1/2 cups boiling water. Cover for 3 minutes, stir, and enjoy!
The whole wheat noodle block.
A dual sachet of dry seasoning and chilli powder.
The chilli powder atop the soup base powder.
An oil sachet.
Has kind of a black pepper scent.
Finished (click image to enlarge). Added pork and sweet onion sauteed with light soy sauce and some coriander. The noodles are thin and have a strong crumbliness to them. What’s interesting is that it works with it being steeped rather than cooked which I think may be key here. It was kind of like brown rice in texture! The broth has a nice pork flavor I enjoyed. 3.75 out of 5.0 stars.EAN bar code 8850987142598.
