Tshun Tso (寸棗) Fried Flour Candy

Tshun Tso (寸棗) Fried Flour Candy

 



Tshun tso (寸棗) (Taiwanese: tshùn tsó) is a traditional sweet snack people usually eat during Chinese New Year. Tshun tso is made of glutinous flour, maltose, and sugar, and cut into finger-sized strip and deep fried. It usually has two colors: golden brown and pink. The shape and colors of tshun tso is very pleasing because someone says it looks like bullion, which is quite suitable for Chinese New Year. You can find tshun tso in traditional markets or some specialty shops.

 

「小時候在阿嬤家過年的零食總是有寸棗；現在每到過年即便有各式精美的年節禮盒，仍不敵在傳統市場用著透明塑膠袋裝著的一包寸棗。」——Mosa 想念

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.
