Using Shiitake Powder♪ Zhajiangmian
The fried bean sauce tastes great not only with noodles but also with rice! Adjust the spiciness to your taste with the Doubanjiang (spicy bean sauce)!
Adding a little shiitake powder to your meals boosts the natural umami flavor. At the same time, the saltiness will rise and enable you to automatically lower your salt intake.
