Xian Zha Bing (仙楂餅) Hawthorn Berry Cake



Xian zha bing (仙楂餅) (pinyin with tones: xiān zhā bǐng), also known as shan zha bing (山楂餅) or shan zha pian (山楂片, hawthorn berry chip), is a traditional snack that you can find in traditional markets or traditional Chinese medicine stores. It is made of shan zha (山楂, hawthorn berry) and sugar. Xian zha bing tastes sweet and a little bit sour, just like suan mei (酸梅, dried salted plums) but not that sour. People usually eat this after taking traditional herbal medicine because it can balance the bitterness of the medicine and can help digestion.

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.
