Hi krnntp,

I don't understand either... i assume you mean eating ready fried
crullers/YaoCharKwai with soya milk & seasonings? well i've never heard of
it eaten like that before. But i guess to each his/her own.


You tiao are eaten with savory soy milk, though. I didn't mention it
because I haven't personally seen it, but I've heard of it. It's a Northern
thing, I believe. I recall my sis mentioning it. Also, my Taiwanese
Wei-Chuan cookbook, _Chinese Snacks_, includes it, now that I looked. It
has a picture too. It says:

Place the cripsy Chinese crullers [crullers!], dried shrimp, Sichuan pickled
mustard greens, green onions, coriander, pork sung [drid pork floss],
vinegar, chili oil, soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt in medium size bowl.
Pour the boil [sic] soybean milk injto the bowl and serve.

PS. I need to find another Taiwanese (or PRC) girlfriend again--it'd make
things so much more easier... Wouldn't have to call my sis to ask about such
things.
