Spicy Beef Noodle Soup 4.0: Kicking it up another notch from my last niu rou mianrecipe. So far I think 4th time’s the charm!

Served sans buns and doused in a “demi-glace,” Japanese hamburgers are a tastier and juicier rendition of the infamous Salisbury steak. Cafe Mami in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is where I had my first taste, and I’m addicted to their Wafu Hamburg Steak, which is marinated in a reduction of soy sauce, citrus, and ginger. I haven’t found a recipe that tastes quite like it, but luckily, the one I have turned out to be a hit with my friends and family

There’s something of about beef noodle soup that makes the Chinese dish a favorite to many. My boyfriend and I love the Taiwanese spicy, braised beef version—the kind that tingles your tongue and rolls off with a hint of heat. Since the beef can be prepared in various types of broths, the challenge has been finding a bowl of noodles that tastes similar to the spicy flavors imprinted on our culinary memory.
