Daily 3-hour brewed herbal broth: A third-generation family recipe for Angelica duck noodles

Text/Photos byKuma

After leaving LeMi Workshop, we decided to head to Zhongshan Road in Tuku Town, Yunlin, to try the delicious Angelica duck noodles. This long-established local eatery, now in its third generation, serves a fragrant broth infused with Angelica and tender, flavorful duck that’s easy on the palate—perfect for warming both the heart and stomach in winter.

The Tuku old shop’s Angelica duck noodles is located at No. 157, Zhongshan Road. Although it was past mealtime that day, the place was still bustling with both dine-in and takeout customers. In Tuku, Yunlin, there are two well-known old shops: Ah Hai Shi Duck Noodles on Zhongzheng Road and Tuku Angelica Duck Noodles also on Zhongzheng Road.

The dine-in seating area spans two storefronts, but since it was fully booked that day, we skipped taking photos of the interior.

That day, we ordered Angelica duck noodles, glass noodles, and a bowl of minced pork rice. We couldn’t get enough and wished we could order another bowl. The flavor of the duck meat, in particular, made us crave a plate of sliced duck.

The broth, simmered for three hours daily, is rich but not greasy, bursting with the aromatic fragrance of Angelica herbs. The duck pieces, soaked in the broth, are tender, juicy, and incredibly easy to eat.

The noodles used are red wheat vermicelli.

We love the flavor of duck, especially when paired with glass noodles. The fragrant, thick broth paired with the noodles, which soak up the rich juices, makes it hard to resist slurping them down one after another, then biting into a piece of duck—it’s pure bliss.

The minced pork rice is simple yet incredibly fragrant and flavorful.

On this slightly chilly day during our Yunlin trip, we savored the local delicacy of Tuku’s Angelica duck noodles. The herb-infused broth and tender, savory duck pieces left us wanting more. After the meal, we took a short stroll along Zhongshan Road and discovered other popular queue-worthy foods—but since we’re not fond of waiting in line, those tasty treats remained out of reach… ^^”
