[@YummyItFood]

I've never had the Beijing Style Zha Jiang Mian, only the Chinese-Korean version. This looks like it's less messy to eat and less starchy. Very clean taste, I like all the veggie garnish for a nice crunch. The presentation makes me drool. I want to try this version, it has a lot of savory and umami yumminess in every bite. I have all the ingredients but the ground pork LOL. Excellent recipe. I'm always excited to learn new noodle dishes. Can't wait to try this one! 😍👍LIKE #19

[@FineArtofCooking]

Thank you so much. You're right, this is a healthier and less messy version of Zha Jiang Mian. Most street food hawkers in China use much fattier ground pork and the meat sauce is usually soaked in oil. Many people are health conscious nowadays so I use leaner meat. 🤐

[@gimmorning1441]

What a great recipe!! I want to buy ingredients and make them! Thank you for sharing a good recipe. 🥰💕

Bonjour Marie, recipe very well done and explained as usual ... the meat is succulent ... we did not know shaoxing wine ... it is a new ingredient for us ... the preparation of the sauce is very *interesting* .. .and the meat seems very juicy ... the result is *SPECTACULAR* and you could send us a plate of that wonderful recipe by drone ... :)) .. Good evening, Marie and send much love from your friends Zebro and Marey - like 75

[@FineArtofCooking]

Thanks so much for this gentle and lovely message. Shaoxing is a rice wine use for cooking only. It's the most popular wine in China. It costs less than $3 a bottle. I can't cook Chinese food without it 😊. I wish you a wonderful week ahead. See you soon!

[@LaCuisineDuCoq]

@@FineArtofCooking Bonjour Marie, thank you so much, for very interesting answer Marie, we have to try the Shaoxing, it is not very expensive...We always like that honey golden color that meat has in Chinese dishes a lot, it is a very attractive color. See you soon !! and wonderful week-end ;)
