Longkou Vermicelli: A Silk-like Thread from China

Hailing from the coastal city in Shandong province, China, Longkou Vermicelli boasts a history stretching back over centuries. Traditionally made from just mung bean starch and water, its name is now a protected designation of origin, much like Champagne in France.

The hallmark of authentic Longkou Vermicelli is its exceptional quality. It is renowned for its translucent, silky-smooth appearance and a texture that is both pleasantly chewy and resilient, never turning mushy when cooked. Its neutral taste is its greatest strength, making it an incredibly versatile ingredient that beautifully absorbs the flavors of broths, sauces, and spices it's cooked with.

From its origins in Chinese cuisine, Longkou Vermicelli has become a global pantry staple. Its journey to international popularity is driven by its versatility and convenience. It is a key component in dishes from hot pots and stir-fries to spring rolls and salads across East and Southeast Asia. In the Western world, it has been embraced as a healthy, gluten-free (when made from pure mung bean) alternative to wheat noodles.

Today, this "silk of the pantry" continues to win over food lovers worldwide. Its ability to seamlessly adapt from a hearty soup in a Korean kitchen to a light summer roll in a Vietnamese restaurant or a modern "zoodle" bowl in a health-conscious home is a testament to its enduring and universal appeal.

The main uses and classic dishes of TSY Longkou vermicelli

The uses of Longkou vermicelli are extremely diverse, almost covering all Chinese cooking techniques.

1.Cold Dishes (The best way to highlight its chewy texture)

For cold dishes, rinsing the cooked vermicelli under cold water enhances its smooth and pleasantly chewy texture. Here are two classic preparations:

Cold Mixed Vermicelli: Combine the vermicelli with julienned cucumbers, carrots, and egg strips. The dish is brought to life by tossing it with a savory dressing of minced garlic, vinegar, light soy sauce, and sesame oil, creating a refreshing and appetizing side.
Ants Climbing a Tree (Cold Version): This classic Sichuan dish features the vermicelli tossed in a rich, stir-fried minced meat sauce. Served cold, it offers a robust and flavorful experience.

2.Stir-frying (A test of mastering the sauce and heat)

For stir-fries, the vermicelli must be pre-soaked until soft to fully leverage its exceptional flavor-absorbing quality.

Ants Climbing a Tree (Stir-fried): As the most renowned vermicelli dish, it features noodles that completely absorb the rich sauce of minced meat and broad bean paste. The result is a fresh, aromatic, and spicy-numbing flavor, with the vermicelli turning out glossy, smooth, and satisfyingly slick.
Cabbage Stir-fried with Vermicelli: A quick and simple home-style classic. The vermicelli soaks up the natural sweetness from the cabbage and the savory aroma of soy sauce, creating a deeply appetizing and comforting combination.

3.Soups & Stews (Highlighting its flavor-absorbing quality)

Vermicelli plays a crucial role in soups and stews, acting as a supporting star that absorbs and enriches the broth, making its flavor more concentrated and satisfying.

Beef & Vermicelli Soup: Added to a rich beef broth, the vermicelli soaks up the savory soup, complementing the beef perfectly and adding a delightful texture.
Pork & Vermicelli Stew: A beloved dish from Northeast China. The vermicelli absorbs the rich flavors and fats from the pork during the slow stewing process, becoming exceptionally flavorful.
Steamed Dishes with Garlic & Vermicelli: A classic Cantonese technique. Pre-softened vermicelli is laid as a base for scallops, shrimp, or baby cabbage, then topped with a fragrant garlic sauce and steamed. Having absorbed the savory seafood juices and garlic aroma, the vermicelli often becomes the most sought-after part of the dish.

4. Hot Pot & Spicy Broth
Vermicelli is an essential addition to any hot pot, serving as a beloved staple to conclude the meal.
Usage: Simply simmer it in the broth for a few minutes. The vermicelli excels at absorbing the rich flavors, whether it's the numbing spice of a mala broth or a delicate clear soup, resulting in a deeply satisfying and comforting finale.
