Phong Piann (椪餅/椪饼) Brown Sugar Hollow Cookies

 



 

Phong piann (椪餅/椪饼) (Taiwanese: phòng piánn), also called tu bing (凸餅/凸饼) (pinyin with tones” tū bǐng) or zuo yue zi bing (坐月子餅/坐月子饼) (pinyin with tones: zuò yuè zi bǐng), is a spherical hollow cookie with brown sugar filling on the inner wall. Phong piann used to be the nutrient supply for mothers who are under the postnatal care of her family (坐月子). A traditional way to eat phong piann is to puncture a hole in the center of it, crack an egg inside, and use sesame oil to panfry until it is well cooked. Nowadays life is getting better; eating phong piann is no longer restricted to mothers who just give birth. You can find phong piann in some traditional pastry shops especially in Tainan (台南).

Hi, I’m Mosa. This name is taken from the latter words of Formosa, the former name of Taiwan in 16th century which means “beautiful island.” Indeed, Taiwan does have ravishing natural landscapes and diverse cultures worth exploring. However, there is no much access for foreigners to learn more about Taiwanese culture in English. Here in TAIWANBOW. 臺灣飽典 I started by introducing Taiwanese food to arouse people’s attention to Taiwan since Taiwan has been voted as the country with the best food*. I hope that through this website I can make some contribution to Taiwan, where I was born and grew up.
