Wenzhou pig intestines rice noodle soup (Chinese:温州猪脏粉;pinyin:Wēnzhōu zhūzàngfěn) is a noodle soup dish made with rice noodles, pig intestine and duck or pig blood. It comes fromWenzhou, inZhejiang, China. It can be eaten at breakfast or throughout the day.[1]
Intestines are cooked in aromatics such asrice wine, soy sauce, ginger,soybean paste, or garlic[2] until softened. Blood is added in a congealed form (such aspig blood curd) along with noodles, and the dish is finished with scallions.[3]
In an effort to give consistent English names to 50 popular Wenzhou dishes, Zhejiang Vocational and Technical College of Industry and Trade called it "Rice Rolls with Boiled Pig's Intestines" in 2008.[4]
As people from Wenzhou moved out of the city, they also introduced this dish to other regions.[3] However, as the region develops and people in Wenzhou become more affluent, fewer people have been making authentic Wenzhou pig intestines rice noodle soup.[citation needed]
