Welcome to Day 21 of cooking Street Food on TikTok for 21 Days! I had to finish off the series strong and go back to my roots with my family’s Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup Recipe. Out of all the recipes I’ve made, this is the one where I would 100% recommend that you make this fall! The savory, slightly spicy soup pairs perfectly with noodles, and the beef are cooked so tenderly that you can break apart with a fork!
Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup is like your family’s chicken noodle soup recipe. There are so many variations of how to make it, but this is the one that I grew up eating. I remember coming home after school, and I can smell the soup boiling from a block away! I am not exaggerating; it is THAT GOOD.
It is time-consuming but super easy to make! I have made it multiple times in an Instant Pot with the same steps; if you want a video tutorial, I will be happy to do an Instant Pot series as well.
