Zhu Xie Gao (豬血糕/猪血糕) Pig's Blood Cake

Zhu Xie Gao (豬血糕/猪血糕) Pig's Blood Cake

 



Zhu xie gao (豬血糕/猪血糕) (pinyin with tones: zhū xiě gāo), sometimes called mi xie gao (米血糕, rice blood cake), is made of animal’s blood (usually from pigs or geese) and glutinous rice shaped like a rectangular solid. Zhu xie gao is a common ingredient in yan su ji (鹽酥雞, Taiwanese popcorn chicken), lu wei (滷味, soy sauce braised food), yan shui ji (鹽水雞, Taiwanese salty chicken), and huo guo (火鍋, hot pot). But a popular way to eat zhu xie gao alone is to dip it into special soy sauce and coat it with peanut powder (sometimes with cilantros). If you like spicy food, some vendors even provide chili sauce. You can find zhu xie gao in almost all night markets or on old streets.

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.
