蔥油餅 heaven

My favorite Chinese snack/food is 蔥油餅 aka scallion pancakes. It's basically fried dough with green onions in it and I made it all the time back home in the US. It can be a breakfast food although it's a snack food in Taipei and you can even add cheese, basil leaves, and egg. I usually eat it plain but lately I would add hot sauce and this type of sour pickled vegetable to it. The other day Cala and I went to a little market near our place and we went inside this building where they had more food stands. We passed a 蔥油餅 stand. Usually in Taipei they sell 葱抓饼 which I blogged before but the difference is that the bread is thinner and fluffier. This stand was selling 蔥油餅 which I've never seen here yet and the dough was super thick and they were in huge pizza slices. One piece was bigger than my own hand. It only cost 50NT (almost $1USD) and I ordered a piece this afternoon. After seeing the stand yesterday, I had to go back today to order it lol The guy cut it up for me and it had sesame seeds on it too. It was so big that when he cut it up, it added up to about 10 big pieces. It was amazing though..I probably won't eat 蔥油餅 for awhile since it's way too much but it was incredible. I never seen such a big piece of 蔥油餅 in my life lol I need to go back and take a picture of it haha
