Cheddar Beer bread. As a cheese lover, I should’ve heard of this earlier.

It isn’t as well known perhaps because it feels more like breakfast than a snack but for me it’s everything. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack, supper… why not? UnlikeContinue reading “Sourdough Ox-Tongue Pastry 牛舌饼 (Recipe)”
Sourdough Discard Scallion Layered Pancake (Recipe)
Scallion pancakes are a common street food in Taiwan and China. The layering, fragrant oil and an almost ridiculous amount of chopped scallions make it a simple but well-appreciated delicious meal on its own.
