Liuzhou luosifen, a soup dish dubbed by some people as "durian of soup" for its strong smell, originated in Liuzhou, a city in South China's Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. It features rice vermicelli soaked in a spicy broth flavored by river snails and topped with ingredients including pickled bamboo shoots, string beans, peanuts and tofu skin.
螺蛳粉,源自中国广西壮族自治区南部的柳州市,是一种带汤美食,因气味浓烈而被称为“加汤的榴莲”。其特色是将米粉浸泡在河螺调味的辛辣肉汤中,并加上腌笋、青豆、花生和豆腐皮等配料。
Despite having the word "snail" in its Chinese name, actual snails don't commonly appear in the dish, but are used to flavor the broth.
尽管螺蛳粉的名字里有“螺蛳”,但螺蛳是用来给汤入味的,粉里通常并没有真正的螺蛳。
Xinhua reports that the annual sales of river snail rice noodles in more than 20 countries and regions exceeded 10 billion yuan ($1.54 billion) in 2020, while providing over 250,000 jobs across the industrial chain.
据新华社报道,2020年,20多个国家和地区的螺蛳粉年销售额超过100亿元人民币,同时为整个产业链提供了超过25万个就业岗位。
