Zha jiang mian--one of the most famous Chinese noodles

Zha jiang mian (炸酱面, literally "fried sauce noodles", often transliterated as "Za Jiang Mein") is a northern Chinese dish consisting of thick wheat noodles topped with a mixture of ground pork stir-fried with Zha jiang (炸酱), which is salty fermented soybean paste.




In Beijing cuisine, yellow soybean paste with soy sauce(; pinyin: huáng jiàng, literally yellow sauce) is used, while in Tianjin and other parts of China sweet bean sauce (甜面; pinyin: tián miàn jiàng), hoisin sauce (鲜酱; pinyin: hǎi xiān jiàng), or dou ban jiang (豆瓣; pinyin: dòu bàn jiàng) may be used in place of the yellow soybean paste. In the cuisines of Beijing, Tianjin, and northeastern China, the soybean paste is stir fried and oil is not used.[citation needed]
Some Chinese restaurants may refer to zha jiang mian as "brown meat sauce noodles," "noodles with fried bean and meat sauce," or the pinyin transliteration zha jiang mian.
