Hu Jiao Bing is what I need right now

Hujiao bing, hot enough to burn my tongue, with a peppery filling and a crisp, flaky bun. I could eat ten, but there’s always more food at the night markets in Taiwan.

Some things are just ridiculously good.

Hujiao bing is one of them. Hot from the oven, still steaming, with that peppery, savory filling inside a crisp, FLAKY, blistered bun. The kind of hot where you know you're going to burn your tongue and eat it anyway. Honestly, I don't even care haha.

I could eat ten, but I never do because there's just so much other food whenever we go to their night markets.

I don't know if I'll ever manage to write about everything good I ate in Taiwan, or anywhere, actually. There's just too much of it, and some things are better remembered as a photograph, a little bit of steam, and the very immediate thought: I need another one of these.
