What does Hakka mean?
Hakka refers to the method of cooking the noodles. The noodles are first boiled, then stir-fried on a wok with different sauces.
They’re then served up with a variety of meat and veggies. There’s no wrong or right accompaniment for Hakka noodles: any vegetables, meat, shrimp, or tofu will do. We add green and red chilies, garlic, and other spices to give you a bold, warm flavor.
What is the difference between Hakka Noodles and Schezwan Noodles?
Alings’ serves up both of these lovely noodle types, and they are quite similar. However, Schezwan noodles are cooked with a spicy Schezwan sauce made out of dried red chilies and a variety of other spices.
The traditional Hakka noodle sauce gets made up with a little soy sauce and a little oil. The flavor is a little more umami and isn’t so spicy. Those who like mild noodles tend to prefer the Hakka noodles.
