Authentic roujiamo contain pork that has been stewed for hours in a soup containing more than 20 kinds of spices and seasonings. The meat is then shredded and mixed with coriander and mild pepper.
The meat is stuffed in mo, a type of flatbread made from wheat flour and baked in a clay or mud oven.
Xi'an city center is home to an array of unassuming time-honored roujiamo shops.
