Not sure what they are. Need more information. 

 

Where was the video shot? (If China, what part of China?) Perhaps post a link to the source of this image we can watch the actual video and see the context. 

 

The material from which rice noodles is made does come in blocks or thick sticks kind of like that in Yunnan. They are called "er kuai" 饵块. But they would be too tough and chewy to eat in that form, without first slicing them into thin pieces. 

 

 

Tofu also comes in thick sticks something like that in Yunnan, as do certain "blond sausages" (usually made from chicken.)

Totally a guess, but maybe it's 面筋 (seitan)?

looks like giant tteokbokki (rice cake) which would be Korean. The sauce looks like tteokbokki sauce and they make them that big sometimes.

年糕 ？

Tteokbokki and 年糕 are the same thing btw. That's what they look like to me.

[phil12345678991011]

Let's hope the original poster returns with more information.

I knew nothing about Korean tteokbokki. Got to admit they look good. Here's some info about them.

The first few posts of new members have to be manually approved by one of the moderators. Depening who is online and has time, this can take a few minutes to numerous hours (and sometimes longer if it's not immediately obvious if a post should be let through or deleted). You replied after Phil posted, but before his post was approved.

Thank you, Phil. I do love Korean food. Plenty of bold flavors.

I too live in Belgium. The selection of Asian products is really limited here. But MyEUshop (I guess they are in the Netherlands, where most of Chinese products in the EU are dispatched from) also ships to Belgium.  ?

Who said anything about blood? Everyone's first few messages have to be approved, to prevent spam showing up on the site. The tight moderation is one of the things that makes this forum the most comfortable one you have ever run in to.
