Roujiamo
Overview
Roujiamo is the abbreviation of the ancient Chinese roujiamo. It is one of the specialty snacks in northwest China. It is mainly based on the cured meat (pork) in Shaanxi and the mutton meat in Ningxia. Momo with cured meat and meat sauce is a famous Xifu snack in Shaanxi Province and a famous snack in Xi'an. Ningxia's Roujiamo is stuffed with mutton. There is a stove in front of each stall, which is no different from the steamed buns sold in other places in the northwest.
