Roujiamo

Roujiamo is a type of sandwich originating from the Shaanxi Province in China. It is often referred to as a Chinese hamburger and is a popular street food item in China. The name "Roujiamo" translates to "meat sandwich" in English.

Etymology

The term "Roujiamo" is derived from the Chinese words "Rou" (meat), "Jia" (clamped), and "Mo" (bread). The term is often shortened to "Rou Jia" in casual conversation.

Description

Roujiamo consists of a meat filling, typically pork, that is slow-cooked in a mixture of over 20 spices and seasonings. The meat is then shredded and served in a flatbread known as "Mo". The bread is baked in a traditional Chinese oven and has a crispy exterior and soft interior. The sandwich is often garnished with coriander and peppers for added flavor.

Variations

While pork is the traditional filling for Roujiamo, variations of the sandwich can include beef, lamb, or chicken. The type of meat used often depends on the region in China. For example, in Muslim areas, beef or lamb is used instead of pork.

Cultural Significance

Roujiamo is a staple street food item in China and is often consumed as a quick meal or snack. It is particularly popular in the Shaanxi Province, where it originated, but can be found throughout China. The sandwich is also gaining popularity in other countries as a result of the global spread of Chinese cuisine.
