When Zhao Yanjun, 22, a chemistry major at the University of Science and
Technology Beijing, looks back to her exchange days at Tunghai University in
Taiwan, the first thing she remembers is sausage wrapped in glutinous rice. Just
as the name suggests, it’s a carb-loaded rice mixture wrapped around a baked
sausage. “The baked sausage looks oily, but doesn’t taste greasy, and the rice
is soft with a crispy skin,” Zhao says. Among the different flavors, which
include spicy, black pepper and wasabi, Zhao recommends the wasabi flavor. “It’s
a little strange at first, but it’s very refreshing.”
北京科技大学化学专业22岁的赵艳君(音译)每每想起她在台湾东海大学交换的日子,首先在脑海中浮现出的都是大肠包小肠。正如其名,大肠包小肠是由混着蟹肉的米肠将烤好的台湾香肠包裹而成。赵艳君说,“里面的烤肠看似油光闪闪但丝毫不腻,而外面的米肠则内软外脆。”大肠包小肠有香辣、黑胡椒、芥末等各种口味,而赵艳君则特别推荐芥末味,她说“虽然入口有点怪异,但是十分爽口。”
Coffin burger
棺材板
Average price: 13 yuan
均价:13元
Places: Tainan city
美食地:台南市
The coffin burger is Chang Tien-chien’s (张天见) favorite snack. The
19-year-old boy grew up in Kaohsiung and is a chemical engineering major at
Tsinghua University now. Just like its unusual name, it is an innovative and
unique dish. A loaf of thick, deep-fried bread is cut open at the top like a
box. Then it is filled with a stew of pork, shrimp and intestines. The toppings
include chopped potatoes, carrots and corn. “The meat is quite greasy, but in
combination with the fried, dry bread it makes for a refreshing meal,” Chang
says.
棺材板是在高雄长大的张天见最喜欢的小吃。这个19岁的男生现在就读于清华大学化学工程专业。棺材板,食如其名,是一道充满奇思、与众不同的美食。厚面包块煎炸后,将顶上切开,形成盒状。然后,填以炖猪肉,虾肉和香肠,上层盖以炸薯条,胡萝卜丁与玉米。张天见说:“虽然其中填充的肉很腻,但是和炸过的干面包搭配在一起吃,顿时令你舌尖一亮。”
