Food For Thoughts . . .
Ants Climbing a Tree ( 蚂蚁上树 ) is a classic dish from Sichuan cuisine. Despite the funny
name, it does not contain ants. It is made with glass noodles (mung bean vermicelli) stir-
fried with minced pork, garlic, soy sauce, and often a bit of spicy bean paste. The name
comes from how the tiny bits of pork stick to the noodles, making them look like ants
climbing on branches. It’s a simple, savory, slightly spicy comfort dish that’s usually served
with rice.
