Mi Quang - The essence of Quang Nam cuisine

 

If you have ever visited Da Nang, Quang Nam, you will not forget the simple, traditional cuisine known as Mi Quang. Mi Quang is a delightful Central Region specialty that is created from rice flour, just like Pho, but they have an entirely different subtlety and flavor.

 

Mi Quang come in a variety of "versions" including shrimp and pork noodles, chicken noodles, frog noodles, duck noodles, short rib noodles, snakehead fish noodles, and so on. Each Quang noodle dish is unique because to the changes in the key elements. has its own distinct tastes. Mi Quang are not very difficult to prepare, but they are complicated due to the several techniques involved.

Quang noodles are 5 to 10mm thick and produced with finely ground rice flour blended with water, gardenia seeds, and egg. The noodles are topped with pork or snakehead fish, chicken, shrimp, frog, boiled quail eggs, and stewed pork bone broth. In addition, people add roasted peanuts, chopped green onions, red peppers, herbs, and other ingredients to the bowl of noodles to spice up the flavor.

 

Raw veggies including basil, white bean sprouts, coriander, fresh lettuce, young mustard greens, laksa leaves, chopped spring onions, and thinly sliced banana blossoms are layered beneath the noodles. To obtain the perfect flavor, eat Quang noodles with plenty of green chili. Also, the noodles are served with sesame rice paper and aromatic crispy toasted peanuts, which make a distinct flavor to Quang cuisine.
